Qin Ran didn't move.
Because, he could judge that Emma Eddie's knife would not stab him.
In fact, it is.
The sharp looking knife brushed Qin Ran's ear and pierced into the pillow.
Emma Eddie, who was holding a knife in his hand, looked at Qin Ran carefully, and when he found that Qin Ran didn't even blink, the other party frowned.
Then, he pulled out the knife.
Immediately, the down and cotton in the pillow flew out and stained Qin Ran's head and face, making Qin Ran look extremely embarrassed.
But Qin Ran's eyes were still calm.
Facing these peaceful eyes, Emma Eddie's frown became more and more tight.
"You have neither fear nor anger."
"Is it because you confirmed that I will not cause you any real harm?"
Obviously, Emma Eddy, who has changed her identity, has enough knowledge and observation to match her current identity.
Qin Ran didn't answer, just looked around quietly.
From the very beginning, he has been observing like this.
He expected to find something different.
because…
From the beginning to the end, he faintly felt that something was wrong.
"Did you refuse to answer because of the drawstring bag?"
"I can take it off for you."
Facing the silent Qin Ran, Emma Eddie spoke again.
This time, she chose another breakthrough.
Of course, when the voice just fell, she issued a corresponding warning.
"However, you need to assure me that you will not do anything out of the ordinary. I just need to scream or make any abnormal noise, and Sheriff Pudek and Oddock outside the door will come in. They The former has admirable abilities and is equipped with weapons, while the latter is very reliable and has a convincingly strong body."
Qin Ran didn't mind letting the foreign object off his mouth.
So, after the other party finished speaking, he nodded.
Seeing Qin Ran's cooperation for the first time made Emma Eddie smile. She thought her first step had been successful.
Emma Eddie walked around to the side of the bed, and untied the drawstring bag for Qin Ran from a safe position, and, the moment he untied it, took a quick step back, as if worried that Qin Ran would bite someone .
However, it was obvious that the other party was worrying too much.
After Kieran broke free from the annoying bondage, he just licked the inside of his mouth with his tongue, and then fell silent again.
Seeing the bulge on Qin Ran's face, Emma Eddy subconsciously recalled the scrolls she had seen, and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.
But in a flash, Emma Eddy regained her composure immediately.
She's here to prove the other party's guilt.
Rather than being intimidated by the other party.
Although cannibals are scary, they can't scare her!
"Do you have anything to say to your parents?"
"If one of them needed your blood and spinal cord to survive, would you save them?"
Emma Eddy asked.
Qin Ran didn't answer, and his eyes didn't fluctuate.
He really has nothing to say to his parents, whom he has never met.
If you insist on describing it, it's almost like a stranger.
Even, from a certain point of view, he still has a trace of hatred.
Of course, that was his own business.
It has nothing to do with the question at hand.
"Do you like cats and dogs?"
"Or other pets?"
Emma Eddy asked again.
Still silent.
"If you were given a chance to go out, what would you do?"
Another unanswered question.
Emma Eddie asked Qin Ran more than a dozen questions in the next half hour, but none of them were answered by Qin Ran.
"Mr. 2567, you are very uncooperative."
"We all know why."
"But we are more aware that doing so will not change us more, see you tomorrow!"
In the end, Emma Eddy said this.
Qin Ran was pushed back into the room by Odok again.
During the period, I ate a meal, which was sticky and bean-flavored liquid food.
Then, he saw Emma Eddy again, still in the dean's office.
Fries is still gone, it's still Emma Eddy and Puddek.
And this time was the same, Kieran remained silent, and the other party got nothing.
The food after that was still bean-flavored liquid food.
By this time, Qin Ran was able to confirm that there was only one meal a day here, at least he was like this, and he didn't know about the others.
He can see many big people every day.
But these people are all indifferent.
The drawstring bag can only be lifted in the dean's office, and he can't ask anything.
And in the past two days, the person Qin Ran was most familiar with was not Emma Eddy who kept asking him, but Odok who was the nurse and supervisor.
It seems that he found that Qin Ran was not as cruel as the rumors said. Odok would chat with Qin Ran from time to time. Of course, it was the kind of chat to himself. The content of the chat was also the weather, salary, and Wives, children, and such insignificant things.
Through the other party's words, Qin Ran understood the world he was in at the moment.
On the third day, after eating the bean-flavored liquid food, Qin Ran was pushed into the dean's office again.
With the previous relationship, Emma Eddie became very familiar with it. After Sheriff Pudek and Oddock left, she untied the drawstring bag for Qin Ran.
"How's it going today?"
Emma Eddy asked routinely.
She usually starts with such words.
Never thought that Qin Ran would answer.
But this time was different, Kieran spoke up.
"not so good."
Qin Ran said so.
Hearing Qin Ran's voice, Emma Eddie was taken aback, and then looked at Qin Ran with a little joy.
"It's the first time I heard your voice, it's not bad."
Emma Eddy tried to be friendly.
"I've seen you look like this a few times. It's really not good. You still suit leather jackets, T-shirts, jeans and short hair. If you have a nose stud, it will be more perfect."
Qin Ran said lightly.
"Are you imagining me as someone?"
Emma Eddie asked with a frown.
"of course not."
"I'm just saying one more fact, I can't detect you until now... No, it's how you appeared, but you seem to keep making me believe that you are a psychotic murderer, the restraints on my body, the eyes of people around me , it’s all like this.”
"And Odoc's narration conveys the integrity of the world to me every day."
"But he is a bit too much, or you are eager to make me believe that this is a complete world, using him and his fabricated family to deceive me, but you ignore a smoking and careful care worker, if there is a wife As for the child, he will never go home and show up with a strong smell of cigarettes every time, especially when he shows that he needs to take the bus back and forth in a hurry every day, and has no more free time, so he has to wait for the elevator. Time for a cigarette or two."
"Of course, it's more than that."
"He said that his salary is very meager, and he loves his wife and children very much, so for the sake of his wife and children, he should also smoke one or two fewer cigarettes, instead of two or three packs of cigarettes a day like now, just usually .”
"Also yesterday he said that it was raining and the ground was slippery. He almost fell down, but his shoes were clean, you could say he had wiped them, but what about the pants? Those pants were from when I saw him , I’ve been wearing it all the time, and he even showed it to me, it has an extra trouser pan made by his wife’s handiwork, in order for him to put the belt in it better.”
"If you say that these are all my delusions."
"So… "
"I want to meet Ferris!"
"I don't need to hear his voice or see his picture, I need Fries in front of me."
"can you do it?"
Qin Ran asked word by word.
Then, Emma Eddie obviously became sluggish.
"You obviously can't."
"Maybe you have complete memories about yourself in your mind, and even the whereabouts of Fries, but you can't rely on these memories to find Fries."
"because… "
"Creating you, Sheriff Pdek, and Oddock is the limit."
"It can no longer create a person like Fries whose bloodline has already been extraordinary and has reached a certain level, let alone a character like Dresden."
"Even the sound and image of Dresden cannot be replicated."
"Otherwise, it would definitely use a more convincing Dresden as the dean here, rather than Fries."
As Qin Ran's voice fell, the sluggish Emma Eddie moved.
She was as stiff as a puppet, she turned her head and looked at Qin Ran.
"This time you won!"
"But it's just the beginning!"
"You will eventually be overwhelmed by illusion!"
In the cold, mechanical voice, everything in front of me shattered.
Darkness fell.
The light came on.
When Kieran regained his sight again, he was already sitting on a sofa with his backpack at his feet.
And everything around is also very familiar.
17 Langtonding Street, Study Room.
This is the place he stayed for a long time in the last copy world, far exceeding his knowledge of other places.
Therefore, he is familiar with everything here.
From the arrangement of the bookshelves, the brightness and darkness of the desk lamps, to the position of each book, Qin Ran memorized it by heart.
After checking them one by one, they were all the same as he remembered.
And when Kieran pushed open the door of the study, Fries and Odok were busy.
"My lord, your lunch will be ready soon, please wait a moment."
"Of course, if you have any special needs, please let me know."
Frith saluted respectfully and gracefully, like a real butler.
"No, follow your pace, Ferris."
After speaking, Qin Ran sat down in the chair.
"Yes, my lord."
With a promise, Frith took Odok to action.
As Fries said, lunch will be ready soon.
The aperitif was replaced by lemon and honey water because Qin Ran refused alcoholic drinks. However, Fries still followed the etiquette and took out the frozen cup from the refrigerator.
It was cold with a hint of sweet and sour taste, from tongue to stomach, Kieran couldn't help sitting up straight, he couldn't wait any longer.
The appetizer is honey-glazed chicken wings, the chicken wings are boneless, just eat it in one bite, and a stack of chicken wings disappears almost as soon as it is served.
When the bread, butter and cheese were served, there was still half of the oyster bisque soup, and the salad was almost finished.
Qin Ran tore open the bread, absorbed the soup and put it in his mouth. Feeling the instant soup filled his mouth, he couldn't help but let out a soft hum of satisfaction.
The steamed lobster was served with the steak.
Next to the dinner plate, Frith thoughtfully put water on it.
After drinking the water in one gulp, Qin Ran grabbed the fattest body of the lobster and stuffed it into his mouth. It was delicious but not astringent. There was no need for more combinations, and the freshness of the lobster was the best guarantee.
The steak is the same, but the sauce is more prominent. Instead of choosing red wine, I should have used a sauce made of white pepper and Chinese kale, which better seals the umami of the beef, especially when the heat is just right, it gives way to the beef. The sirloin steak on the back becomes tough without clogging the teeth.
For dessert, in order to neutralize the greasy feeling, Fries chose lemon mousse.
Qin Ran swallowed it in one gulp, and picked up the drink that was delivered again.
No longer lemon honey water, but apple juice.
The same sweet and sour taste, but more mellow.
Holding the glass, Kieran stood up slowly, and after he drank the last bit of apple juice, he slowly said, "It's really good! Apart from the fact that I can eat food of similar quality at... I have never met such a good chef."
"I didn't find it in Aikend before, is it because I didn't search carefully enough? Or is it because you, Fries, have made great progress in cooking in a short period of time, reaching a level that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve?"
Kieran put down his glass and walked towards Fries while talking.
However, before Kieran got close, Fries disappeared.
There is no doubt that this is still illusory.
When it returned to normal again, Kieran was already standing in the Smallville block.
There are still traces of his battle with the "Dragon of Resentment" and "Death Knell" around.
Dresden is running towards him with the other superheroes in Eikend.
There is joy from the heart on everyone's face.
They certainly have reasons for joy.
You know, this time they not only wiped out the cancerous tumors in the Smallville neighborhood, but the 'Gluttony King' even killed the two restless bastards of the 'Dragon of Resentment' and 'Death Knell'.
Perhaps with the passage of time, new bastards will appear in the city of Aikend.
However, for a period of time to come, ordinary citizens in Aikend City will have a fairly long and stable life.
Those guys who have always followed the example of the 'Dragon of Venom' and 'Death Knell' will definitely learn a lesson from this incident.
And all of this was done by the man in front of him.
Especially after hearing the report from 'The Eye' Willis, these transcendental beings were all thankful and proud to have a companion like Kieran.
One of the most exciting is the 'Fist of Justice' Dresden.
He walked in front of Qin Ran, and couldn't help hugging Qin Ran.
"Nice job, 2567!"
"do you know?"
"I… "
"Who are you?"
Qin Ran's voice lightly interrupted the other party's words.
'Dresden' was about to back subconsciously, but was firmly locked in Qin Ran's arms, and only the upper body was able to recede.
The other party's face was filled with astonishment and disbelief.
Obviously, the other party didn't understand how Qin Ran found out.
He had obviously abandoned all his scruples, used all his reserve power, and did his best, but why was he still found out.
And at this moment, Qin Ran's faint voice sounded again.
"It's really fake."
'Dreston' froze for a moment, then flushed.
"Are you bluffing me?!"
The other party yelled.
But it was useless, Kieran's arms tightened instantly.
