Forces of Temptation

Chapter 280: Ant (three)

[Nanzhou]'s fingertips hung on the cleat and tapped twice cautiously.

He didn't know what was hidden in the box.

But no matter which world Nanzhou it is, the curiosity about all things remains the same.

slap—

A sharp abnormal sound made [Nanzhou]'s fingertips tremble.

Almost at the same moment, the lock clicked and was torn apart by a gap.

The brass lock piece was folded upwards, and the lock head fell silently on the sofa along with the other half of the broken lock piece.

… the box was opened.

With just a flick, the next new world will be displayed in front of [Nanzhou] first.

But the abnormal sound coming from the direction of the kitchen made him subconsciously turn his head to look at [Jiang Fang] before opening the lid, and the movements in his hands stagnated.

[Jiang Fang] in the kitchen took a step back in surprise.

A stone came in and hit the kitchen glass.

The glass remained on a border that would be cracked, and it was not known whether the thrower had insufficient strength in his hand, or if he had squeezed it too much.

And the culprit did not turn around and escape, but stood boldly outside the courtyard.

The cracked pattern spread out in a circular shape, just covering the man's face.

Beneath the crack was a pair of legs that were perfectly smooth from hip to ankle, wrapped under black suit trousers.

[Jiang Fang] stared at those legs for a long time, until another pair of equally slender and beautiful legs approached from behind.

He glanced back at [Nanzhou], stretched out his hand and opened the cracked window.

Who would have thought that the person who smashed the glass would disappear in just this instant.

Beyond the fence, there is nothing but blank space.

It would be fine if it was a naughty child who did such a thing, but those legs were adults.

[Jiang Fang] frowned, thinking that those legs looked familiar.

The town has never been visited by outsiders, so it should be the people in the town.

But he could never have imagined that anyone in the town would do such a lame prank in broad daylight.

When he was at a loss, [Jiang Fang] let out a low sigh, and wiped the water droplets on his fingers with a towel: "This town is getting weirder and weirder... One day, I have to take you away."

At this time, [Nan Zhou] had already walked towards the door with his back turned.

"You've said it many times," he said to himself.

Every time, when other town residents including [Jiang Fang] tried to approach the outskirts of the town, they would forget their purpose of going out for various reasons.

So far, only Nan Zhou knows that they are locked in a prison.

The rest of the inhabitants live in a beautiful fantasy, believing themselves to be free.

[Nanzhou] also has no intention to break their fantasy.

Especially [Jiangfang].

His voice was so low that [Jiang Fang] couldn't hear it clearly: "... eh? What?"

[Nan Zhou] put on his shoes at the entrance: "Nothing. I'll go out and see who it is."

[Jiang Fang] didn't stop him either.

When the door closed, [Jiang Fang] turned his back and checked the window that was smashed by the stone.

He said softly: "The glass is broken, it's quite troublesome to replace it."

As soon as his mind moved, a decision formed in his mind: "Then don't change it."

Might as well take his little neighbor out of this place today.

As soon as he had this crazy idea, the familiar buzzing sound came from his brain again.

He leaned forward, his fingertips grabbed the edge of the cold and hard countertop, shaking his head slightly, trying to get rid of this dizziness.

As one of the NPCs set by the world, [Jiang Fang] has no right to know what kind of world this is.

But he instinctively hated the feeling of being dominated.

He also hates the back of [Nanzhou] every time he leaves.

He is... lonely.

After a while, the door creaked again.

[Jiang Fang] was fighting against that force with all his heart, and he didn't want [Nan Zhou] to see his strangeness, so he turned his back to him and greeted casually, "Are you back?"

A familiar voice came from behind: "Well."

[Jiang Fang] There is no doubt about him.

Because of this distraction, the memory of "leaving the town" in [Jiang Fang]'s mind was instantly wiped out by the power of the world.

Nan Zhou picked up the box that had been unlocked on the sofa.

… just a little bit.

Fortunately, he understood his curiosity and managed to lure [Nan Zhou] to leave temporarily, giving him a short chance for Li Dai Tao Zang.

The box is indeed at [Jiangfang]'s house... On the daily trajectory of [Nanzhou].

If the [Nanzhou] of the second world really opens the box, who knows what will happen

The most correct thing at the moment is to open the lid immediately and go to the next world to avoid long nights and dreams.

Seeing that the time to board the train was approaching, the sense of urgency that he didn't know the way forward could no longer allow Nan Zhou to think more.

However, when he caught a glimpse of [Jiang Fang] out of the corner of his eye, his mind suddenly changed.

... As he just said, no one knows what will happen after he "opens the box".

The first time he opened the box, he didn't even have a chance to look back due to the suddenness of the teleportation.

So, he doesn't know, after Pandora's box is opened, will the world be business as usual

Only superfluous self and superfluous boxes disappear into thin air

Or, after opening the box he found, everything in the original world would collapse and vanish immediately

Nan Zhou knew that this was a game, and he also knew that he wanted to achieve a certain purpose.

But he also knows the truth behind the game.

Because he himself once lived in a game, he can empathize with the most common NPCs.

Of course, Nan Zhou would not give up the game because of this and shy away.

Nan Zhou's hesitation was just because he didn't want to see Jiang Fang who was exactly the same as Jiang Fang, and collapsed and dissipated in front of his eyes.

After thinking about it, Nan Zhou decided to go out and open the box.

At least not here.

However, as soon as he took a step, he heard a question from behind: "What do you want to eat at noon?"

Nan Zhou held the box and turned his head slightly.

He found that Jiang Fang was not looking at him, but half the corner of his mouth was raised gently.

… He is also peeking at him out of the corner of his eye and smiling.

Nan Zhou rarely ordered food, so naturally he was not as skilled as the [Nan Zhou] in this world.

He had to follow his own habit and said, "I want to eat soufflé."

[Jiang Fang] said oddly, "Huh? I remember that you don't like sweets the most."

Nan Zhou: "… "

The difference between the original world and the world can also be reflected in the taste.

[Jiang Fang] had no doubts, came over, hugged Nan Zhou, whose dress, appearance, height, and temperament were the same as those of [Nan Zhou], and gently rubbed his chin on his forehead twice: "Since you want to learn a new craft, you have to charge some tuition."

Nan Zhou lowered his eyes and hummed.

After receiving the "tuition fee", Big Brother Jiang Fang patted him on the head.

In this box world, their relationship doesn't stop there.

Because [Nan Zhou] had kept such a secret in his heart since childhood, causing a vague sense of alienation, they never took the most important step towards each other.

When [Jiang Fang] walked to the kitchen, Nan Zhou held the box, opened the door, and also walked out.

He had no time to delay.

However, he just took two steps outside the house, holding the box with his left hand, and when he was about to lift the lid of the box with his right hand, his hand was suddenly empty.

A hand suddenly attacked from the side and smashed the iron box away with precision.

The thrown box drew a long arc and flew straight into the basement with an exit on the east side of the small courtyard slanting on the ground.

When Nan Zhou entered Jiang Fang's house, he clearly remembered that the door to the basement was closed.

But now, it opens its doors to both sides, forming a "well mouth" that invites you to enter the urn.

Nan Zhou could clearly see that the lid of the box, which flew out and lost its lock, opened halfway in the air.

He didn't even have time to save him.

In the next second, his collar was silently tugged by the same [Nanzhou] as him, and he was pushed to take a few steps in a hurry.

Nan Zhou did not struggle.

He crossed the shoulder of the raiding [Nanzhou] and saw the sky split from the east.

The endless volume of nothingness surged like a tide letter, and in the blink of an eye, it devoured half of the town of NEVER.

Fortunately, after the iron box fell into the basement, one corner of the box slammed into the ground, flipped a few somersaults, and closed again by accident.

The disintegration of the world stopped immediately, and the collapsed sky, like the Nuwa mending the sky, gave birth to blue sky and white clouds out of thin air, and the scorching sun.

This also verified Nan Zhou's idea.

When you open the box and welcome the new world, the original old world will be destroyed.

The first world he came from, the original Never Town, has been turned into nothingness like this.

In other words, if the [Nanzhou] of this world opens the box before him, the one who goes to the next world will be [Nanzhou].

And he will go to the void with the Second World.

While thinking about it, Nan Zhou's back and head slammed onto the concrete floor.

As the two jumped in together, the door of the basement was quickly and incoherently pushed by [Nanzhou], and with a bang, it was locked from the inside.

Nan Zhou knew too well what [Nan Zhou] wanted to do.

... He wants to obliterate himself, this strange intruder, on the spot.

But he also refused to do this in front of Jiang Fang.

The basement was dug very deep, about three meters above the ground, and the length and width were reasonable. There were some old ladders, tool boxes, old bicycles and other debris that were not usually used.

The light source from the outside has been lost, and the only thing illuminating is the dim light bulb tied to the beam by a thin wire.

This is the best place to kill.

[Nanzhou] I'm afraid I've already realized my purpose.

His departure was just a false shot.

By leaving, he opened the basement door in the yard ahead of time, knocked down the ladder, and dug a trap. He did not intend to rush into the house and confront Nanzhou face to face, so as not to endanger the safety of [Jiang Fang]. Outside, wait for the creepy intruder who looks exactly like him to step out of the house unsuspecting and fall into his trap.

At this extremely critical moment, Nan Zhou did not have any mood swings.

Before his eyes, there were all the prompt boxes that were accidentally revealed from the corner of the void when the sky shattered just now.

But before Nan Zhou could see the content of the reply, this comment disappeared with the patched sky.

Nan Zhou felt extremely incredible.
