The landlord dragged away the bodies of the mother and daughter while humming a song.

The singing of the desolate voice echoed in the corridor along with the rustling of the clothes and the ground, which mixed with a strange feeling that made one's scalp tingle.

Xiao Lan and the two quietly followed the landlord's movements, still using the hallway here to cover up their figures.

Suddenly, just as the landlord turned a corner ahead and disappeared from the sight of the two for a brief moment, the sound disappeared.

Xiao Lan originally thought he was just taking a break, but after waiting for a while, there was still no sound, including breathing. Feeling that something was wrong, Xiao Lan stepped forward cautiously and looked towards the corner.

It turned out that this corner seems to be caused by the careless design of the building. After turning around, there is only a small narrow and irregular space, which is full of dust and garbage, and there is no room and no way to other places.

The landlord just disappeared out of thin air!

There was no place for people to hide in this small space. Xiao Lan knocked on the surrounding walls, and the feedback told him that these were all solid, and there was no special space inside.

Xiao Lan turned to greet Luo: "Luo, come and have a look."

Luo stepped forward, and the dark shadow spread along with his part on the ground, from the ground to the wall, and finally connected to the ceiling, wrapping this area.

After a while, Luo frowned slightly: "Sir, there is no trace. Except for a footprint just around the corner, there is no other trace of the landlord here."

It really just disappeared...

"You said the landlord...is he a human?" Xiao Lan looked at the place and expressed her doubts, "After that mother-daughter couple, I now see that everyone suspects that he is not human."

Luo: "Maybe the power of this copy will interfere with our judgment. When I saw the mother and daughter before, in my perception, they were no different from living people."

This is really troublesome, that is to say, they can't tell whether the people here are dead or alive, and there may even be people who eat with them whose bodies have already begun to rot.

For the sake of appetite, forget it.

"Forget it, let's go." Xiao Lan said, "Go and see other places first."

But Luo didn't hear back for a long time.

Xiao Lan suddenly felt bad in his heart. He looked to his side, where was Luo's shadow beside him?

Now he is the only one in the entire corridor, and the surroundings are extremely quiet.

The dense doors, the narrow and dark corridors, the mottled and worn walls, all looked at him silently, like a road leading people to hell.

——

On the other side, Luo, who found that he had lost the trace of Xiao Lan, walked quickly in the corridor.

In just an instant, Xiao Lan disappeared in front of his eyes. But at that moment, Luo sensed slight fluctuations in the space, which showed that Xiao Lan was not in the same space as he was now.

Luo is trying to find a way to enter that space here. Although it is a bit difficult for him, whose current strength is not complete, it is not impossible.

At this time, an extra person came across.

He Rui smiled kindly at Luo: "Fei Luo, what a coincidence, are you looking for clues here too?"

"Hello, Mr. He Rui." Luo maintained his usual elegant smile, "I still have something to do here, forgive me."

After he finished speaking, he tried to bypass He Rui and go to another place to investigate.

Unexpectedly, He Rui didn't seem to feel his intention to escape, and stood in front of Luo a step further: "Feluo, you and Xiao Lan seem to work well together, have you known each other for a long time?"

Luo stopped in his footsteps, an unpredictable look flashed in his eyes, and he did not change his smile: "We are teammates and naturally cooperate tacitly."

But it didn't reveal at all what He Rui wanted to know about the time the two met.

He Rui seemed to be chatting, "Your skills should complement each other. Looking at Xiao Lan's kick last night, his skills should be combat-type, right? If you can cooperate like this, it will definitely be beneficial in many dungeons. People are envious."

"I can't do it anymore. Every time I find a teammate, I have to run in for a long time, alas..."

Luo pretended not to understand: "I wish you to find a suitable teammate soon."

Seeing this, He Rui understood that Luo didn't want to talk about skills, so he changed the subject: "Speaking of which, there should be many organizations for people as powerful as you, right? I don't know which one you chose?"

"If not, I know a little bit about a lot of forces. It's rare to have a chance to enter the same game. I can also introduce you to it."

Luo narrowed his eyes slightly, this person seemed to be too interested in Xiao Lan. From Xiao Lan's teammates, to the time he entered the game, to his skills, and to the forces behind him, what did he want to do to find out?

Remembering the little bug that appeared last night, Luo didn't speak again.

Disguised as pitch-black eyes, he stared at the person in front of him, and the sharp claws of his fingertips appeared slightly. If he was eliminated now, would it bring trouble to Xiao Lan?

Looking at the handsome man smiling in front of him, He Rui suddenly felt a chill behind him.

This is an instinctive sense of danger. Now the instinct told him that this man—wants to kill him.

He took a cautious step back: "I don't mean anything else, and if my question offends you, I'm sorry I made a blunder."

Under Luo's snake-like stare, He Rui stepped back.

He hardly dared to breathe, for fear that a wrong move would cause the beast in front of him to change his movements and rush towards him.

He Rui breathed a sigh of relief until he completely exited the corridor where Luo was. He raised his hand to wipe it, and found that his forehead was covered in cold sweat. He glanced back and saw that Luo was not catching up, so he quickly accelerated and left in the opposite direction.

——

In the silence, Xiao Lan walked forward. This corridor seemed to be cut off from reality, which seemed extremely unreal.

After turning a few corners, Xiao Lan walked towards the route he came from, and was slowly approaching the elevator.

"pat-"

"pat-"

A familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind him, and it was the crisp slap of a small ball on the ground.

A girl in a cute little dress stood at the elevator entrance, her body shrouded in shadows.

Her clothes were smudged and her exposed arms were an unnatural color. The little girl's head was lowered, making it difficult to see her facial features, her hands were naturally lowered, and she just stood there silently.

The small red ball next to it jumped up spontaneously, as if there was an invisible person slapping the ball.

"Brother, can you help me pick up the ball?"

The child's voice is still soft and waxy, and it is the innocent and clear unique to children. But in this environment, there is no way anyone who sees it can think that this voice is very cute.

It turns out that you were the one who broke into the bathroom before.

Xiao Lan didn't answer her, and continued to walk forward, not giving her a single extra look.

Ignored little girl: "..."

Mom, you haven't taught me what to do in this situation...

Seeing this, the small red ball next to him bounced a few times unwillingly, and then slowly came towards Xiao Lan, trying to regain the situation.

Looking at the little ball that was slowly rolling in front of him, Xiao Lan, an unsympathetic dog than an adult, completely ignored it again and continued to walk forward without even a single unnecessary pause.

Little Ball: "..."

So wronged, you indifferent adults.

An atmosphere called embarrassment suddenly filled the corridor.

The little girl who had been ignored many times was angry, she disappeared in place in an instant, and the next moment she suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Lan.

Xiao Lan finally turned his attention to her. To be honest, Xiao Lan didn't really want to beat the bear boy, but if the other party asked him sincerely, he couldn't force it.

In Xiao Lan's dangerous sight, the angry little girl raised her hand and threw an object on the ground in front of Xiao Lan aggressively. white gloves.

Then... maybe afraid of being beaten, she disappeared with a swoosh.

Also missing was that dutiful little ball.

What is this for?

Xiao Lan doubtfully shifted his gaze to the things on the ground.

【Name: Canned Herring Mixed with Durian】

[Ability: Clear all creatures within 50 meters of the surrounding area, there is a slight probability of attracting strange things (the number of uses is 1/1)]

[Description: Go away! You nasty stinky bastard! Nobody wants to be with you! by an unnamed child]

Hateful stinky guy, a dog is bigger than an adult, Xiao Lan: "..."

Are you making fun of me, kid?

In order to scold me, you even gave me a prop, it's really hard for you...

Xiao Lan picked up the can on the ground. Although the way to get it was a bit strange, it was a prop, right? Maybe it has a miraculous effect when he needs to get out. He is very glad that the little girl didn't open it directly.

He had a feeling that this little girl might never want to come and play with him again.

——

After the little girl disappeared, Xiao Lan felt that everything around her was normal again.

The sound of the wind outside the window came back, as did the occasional creaking of the old house, and he seemed to hear Luo's voice vaguely.

Xiao Lan walked forward for a while. Sure enough, he saw Luo's back not far away. He seemed to be staring at something in one direction.

"Luo." Xiao Lan stepped forward and patted his shoulder, "What are you looking at?"

Luo turned his head, the smile on his face was warm, and he whispered: "He Rui was just asking for your news, from the time you entered the world, to the skills and even the forces behind it."

Xiao Lan was a little strange: "I don't know this person, what is he trying to do?"

Xiao Lan frowned. In the real world, his life was very boring. After entering the world of Advent, he knew very few people, and Lin Yan, who could barely be regarded as having a grudge, was already cold, and he really couldn't think of anyone who would come to inquire about him.

"Maybe he came to you because of the part you don't know about yourself," Lowe said.

"I don't know either..." Xiao Lan's eyes widened slightly: "You mean—my dad?"

Luo nodded: "When sorting out your situation, the most unclear part is from your father. Maybe we can investigate him well after we return to reality."

Based on the current situation, Xiao Lan had a guess. His father might have something to do with coming to the world, maybe he was related to the player, or he might have been a player in the first place.

His disappearance, which no one could investigate, could be explained if it was attributed to his coming to the world.

This kind of unnatural force, of course, cannot be found in reality.

If there is a chance, really want to have a harmonious, friendly and good discussion with He Rui.
