Deep in the Living

Chapter 614 Two People's Time
The abandoned villa area was unusually lively today.

"Congratulations on joining our big family, Sister Yu! And Miss Mia will most likely be able to stay as well. You'll all be living in my villa then, right?"

"I want a basement."

Yu Lu quickly voiced her needs; her mind, similarly influenced by death, disliked change. Even if she had to move from the sorority's place, she insisted that the room's furnishings remain unchanged.

"Um, is there a room where you can sleep with Roddy?"

Mia, on the other hand, spoke frankly, flashing her signature big white teeth with anticipation.

"Yes, then they'll need to sleep with us."

"Never mind then, just find me any cubicle." Seeing Wu Wen's unsettling smile, Mia finally gave in. What she cared about more was being able to have professional exchanges with Roddy.

"Ok."

Everyone gathered around a hot pot, beer bottles in hand. There was another important event today: to celebrate Roddy's "maturity".

However, when they were clinking glasses, Wu Wen noticed that Luo Di's mind didn't seem to be on the party.

While the sisters chatted about everyday things, Wu Wen gently touched their hands under the table and whispered, "Luo Di, if you need anything, you can leave later. I'll take care of things here. It's okay if you don't come back tonight."

"Um."

"However, I'd still like to ask, roughly what kind of matter is it?"

"friend."

"OK."

Luo Di quickly found an opportunity to get up and leave, and Wu Wen also smoothed things over, saying that the school wanted to talk to Luo Di about something.

of course,

Some people believe it, while others naturally don't, especially those who are frequently deceived.

An invisible flower bud burrowed into the ground and secretly followed them out.

As soon as they left the villa area, Roddy stopped in his tracks. "Hua, aren't you going to chat with your sisters? The place I'm going to might not be fun."

Hua Yuan, dressed in a school uniform, with bangs, white knee-high socks, and small leather shoes, slowly walked out from around the corner and stood close behind Luo Di.

Instead of answering Roddy's question, she posed another one, "Are you going to find that new teacher? Or perhaps the chef?"

"No... Since it was Teacher Guo who made the recruitment decision, I respect his choice. There must be a legitimate reason behind it."

Moreover, once the cafeteria is built, we can eat there and make a decision then.

"Then where are you going?"

"Go to a friend's place."

Upon hearing the word "friend," Hua Yuan immediately pictured a sickly face beneath blond hair in her mind. She had initially wanted to take Luo Di's hand, but suddenly felt a bit nauseous and pulled away.

But she still chose to follow, as if observing from the closet or outside the window wouldn't be so bad.

Little did they know that Roddy took a completely different route, eventually arriving at a dilapidated apartment building near the edge of Whirlpool Town.

Just standing downstairs, you can smell a monster.

Just as they were about to go upstairs, a tall figure suddenly descended and blocked their way. It was none other than Miss Song, the student who was closest to the abyss.

However, compared to her previous purely monstrous appearance, Miss Song tonight was more human-like, and her fangs were concealed.

I don't know if it's because of the insights gained from the assessment or something I did tonight.

"Yu Ze is still resting, so only Luo Di is allowed to go up. Hua Yuan, please wait downstairs."

"A human meet-and-greet? How boring."

Hua Yuan leaned against the street lamp to rest for a while. She knew very well that Luo Di wouldn't be up there for long. After all, she could sense that this Miss Song would take up a lot of time tonight.

Climbing the steps

Yu Ze was neither seen going to a room nor lying in a hospital bed.

Following the scent, Luo Di arrived at the rooftop. Just like last time, Yu Ze was still lighting his homemade cigarette and standing on the edge.

"You're smoking right after recovering?"

This time, Yu Ze did not address him as a fellow villager in familiar terms, nor did he respond. Instead, the moment he flicked off his cigarette ash, he suddenly drew his sword and slashed at Luo Di.

Without warning, yet utterly deadly.

Roddy simply put his hands in his pockets, making no attempt to dodge, and walked over to stand beside him, looking into the distance.

The bronze sword did not strike, but instead, an arm was placed on it.

"Fellow villager, I really have to thank you."

If I hadn't come to this place and had instead been trapped in the Exploration Bureau conducting so-called safe, limited exploration, it would have been difficult to see clearly the path I was about to take.

This place is perfect for me.

Without saying a word, Roddy turned and left. "I'm off then, I have to get up early for my morning run tomorrow." "Next time I go back to the capital, I'll treat you to a big meal."

Roddy gave an OK sign and went downstairs; his fears had not come true.

Hua Yuan had just taken out a book and hadn't even finished reading a single page when she exclaimed, "Huh! They're down so quickly? How long have they been up there?"

"I came here to confirm something, and now it's confirmed."

"carried me!"

Hua Yuan, who was standing by the streetlight, suddenly appeared about ten meters behind Luo Di, accelerated her run, and finally made a super jump.

Roddy could only reach out and catch it, carrying it on his back.

A floral fragrance seeped into my skin as my face pressed against the side.

"No wonder Sister Yulu always hangs on you like this. Besides being comfortable, it's also warm... Luo Di, do you remember the promise? The promise you kept putting off, that you would spend one night alone with me."

"Ah."

"How about tonight? Wu Wen knows you won't be going back, and there are many empty houses in the town."

"You arrange it."

"Then you'd better keep your butt up a bit, I'll try to be as gentle as possible."

Hua Yuan hung on Luo Di's back, pointing in the direction they were going, trying to get as far away from the students' and teachers' accommodations as possible.

It took a full half hour to choose a "safe place".

"Let's stay here. I haven't sensed any living beings, and with such a dense cluster of buildings, it's not easy to be discovered."

Guided by Hua Yuan, they arrived at the innermost building and made a special trip to the top floor. The door was right in front of them, and the place inside was where they would be having their activities that night.

Roddy reached out and touched the door, slowly pushing it open.

Hua Yuan's hands had already wrapped around his neck, unbuttoned his clothes, and loosened his belt.

The moment Hua Yuan stepped across the threshold, she didn't even bother to close the door; all her emotions erupted at that moment.

She forcefully pinned Roddy against the wall in the shoe-changing area, her already moist lips quickly pressing against his.

however……

No heat was felt returning.

Instead, it got covered in Hua Yuan's mouthful of dust.
She was only kissing a wall that was peeling paint; Roddy, who had entered the room with her, was now completely nowhere to be seen.

"What's going on? Roddy couldn't possibly have that ability, he couldn't possibly disappear right under my nose... Besides, I can tell he really wasn't lying to me tonight."

Hua Yuan immediately attempted to locate and sense the location.
She had foreseen the possible accident in advance, so she buried a bunch of flower stamens inside Luo Di's body, but she couldn't sense anything at the moment.

Roddy seemed to have vanished.

She subconsciously thought of how Luo Di had been targeted by the outsiders before.
Hua Yuan was preparing to go to school to report what had happened to Teacher Guo. Just as she stepped over the threshold and was about to go downstairs, she caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye.

Turning around and looking,
A faint question mark had appeared on the door sometime during that time.

"You have tutors giving you lessons every night, right?"

……

The familiar layout, the room full of green question marks—this is the office that Mr. Question Mark once set up in the real death game.

current,

Wearing a sack-like head covering, he stood by the window, twirling a coin in his hand. He had clearly been waiting for Roddy for a long time, as Roddy had not yet triggered the "open the door" action.

"Tonight, our teachers held a short meeting, one to address the recruitment of new students and the other to discuss the unexpected situation."

Although the clown used a very good isolation method, using a new student as the sound medium and there was no connection between the two.

However, our teacher Ma is still able to obtain some information through higher-level causal relationships.

Although we couldn't pinpoint the exact location, through our combined efforts, we were able to obtain a very specific location.

However, this location is neither a corner nor an angle. Although you've achieved a perfect state now, with mature plants, heading directly there is still dangerous.

After our discussion
This location information will be provided to you in about a month, depending on the situation.

"A month?"

"Yes, you will need to stay on campus for at least a month to complete the coursework and exams, as well as my private tutoring."

"Okay, I see."

"So you should be free tonight, right?"

"……some."

"That's good. Come with me to a place, and I'll play a game with you. Oh, and make sure you fasten your belt and buttons; I'm not interested in that."
