I am the former civilized hero.

It sounds plaintive, gentle and melodious, a bit like humming, and makes one's scalp tingle.

Ryan's face began to twitch, and he felt like his heartbeat stopped abruptly with the flashing lights. If it wasn't so embarrassing, he would have used his authority to detect it.

This must be Weiwei's fault. Yue Yue just wanted to see us lose our composure, but the sound was too creepy.

The abandoned hotel has turned into a haunted house, and any movement is frightening.

Ling lay on his back with her face buried in it. Hua was not much better, almost hanging on Ryan's shoulders.

Ryan was so overwhelmed that he was a little tired even climbing the stairs. He thought to himself, "You're so annoying, Alicia. Where's your wingman? You're trying to play a trick on me on purpose, right?"

"You two should close your eyes and cover your ears. I don't believe that this can scare me."

Ryan got angry and carried the two men into the floor. The doors on both sides were open and a sobbing voice was echoing. Even without the use of Honkai energy, Ryan was still a top-notch killer. He shone a flashlight on the footprints on the carpet and soon arrived in front of a room.

"Pado, come out quickly, I told you not to run around."

When the flashlight shone inside, I saw the quilt on the bed shaking, which made people feel both amused and helpless.

When Hua saw that someone was more cowardly than himself, he felt much better and walked over and grabbed the corner of the quilt.

"We are here, come out quickly."

ah--

Before she could pull it open, something inside suddenly jumped up. With a piercing scream, a figure in white with long hair covering his face jumped up, and then disintegrated into pieces before her eyes.

Without screaming, Hua just stared at the bed, his pupils contracted, turned around and ran, hugging Ryan tightly.

Before Ryan could react, his neck was tightened and he felt like two youthful bodies were sandwiching him like a sandwich.

He glanced at the parts all over the bed, raised his head silently, calmed his trembling muscles, and quietly gave a thumbs up.

It really is a golden wingman!

Chapter 6: Ai Lixia, you dare to plot against me! (K)

"That's totally wrong. How could this happen?"

The pinhole camera transmitted the images inside the house. Alicia stroked her chin, looking confused.

The use of Honkai energy is not allowed. This "surprise" should scare Ryan, right? Is he really fearless?

"Aliceia, you said I would help him only if he was embarrassed. I just... "

Mebius gritted her teeth and didn't know how to describe it. She had originally wanted to take a picture of Ryan's embarrassing look as a souvenir, or at least clear a few entries in the thick account book.

As a result, she had not yet avenged her old grudge, but had added to her hatred, and when she saw the wooden pillar throwing itself into her arms, she felt that she had done herself a disservice.

"It's all your fault, you idiot. You insisted on playing a prank on him. Look, he's not afraid, his face is almost smiling."

Ling is still young so we can ignore her. Hua is so lucky. If I had known this, I would have forced myself to be assigned to his group.

The more Mebius thought about it, the angrier he got. He looked towards the corner angrily, "And you, didn't we agree to do something bad halfway? Why did you run away early?"

"Well, I was really scared just now. Who knew you were so serious." Padu's cat ears drooped down in grievance. She was really scared just now.

"Ailisha, I've broken the rules." Eden also reminded her lightly. She had already used some of her ability in the humming just now, which was a kind of subconscious fear guidance. Otherwise, Hua would not have lost her composure like that.

"We are the referee team, it is definitely not a foul. Who knew Ryan was so brave? He didn't react at all just now. Hua is the same. It's so cute that he is so afraid of ghosts." Alicia held her head up, her face full of distress, and then decisively passed the blame: "It's all his fault for bragging on the questionnaire. Although I don't want to be his father, it's still good to be his sister."

Everyone was silent, including Mebius and Eden, who were helping out for the bet, and even more so the silent "joyful" Velvet, who was simply enjoying the happiness.

"So Ryan's prank continues?"

"Well, I want him to call me sister!"

"My dear Mebius, I guess he will call you auntie?"

"Alicea, you want to start an internal conflict, right?" Mabius was speechless and walked in front of the monitor. "Your methods are childish. Let me tell you something more powerful."

"Doctor, can you scare Ryan?" Eden was very skeptical. Now that Ryan was on guard, that kind of unexpected method was no longer useful.

"Of course." Mebius pursed his lips and showed a proud smile: "I know him best, no one else!"

......

Ryan couldn't hear the quarrel somewhere at all. He was walking with two people hanging on his back, breathing heavily.

He is also human and will be afraid when he is unprepared.

He was almost defeated just now. Quan Yi was ready to turn the whole hotel into a sea of ​​fire. Fortunately, Hua was worse off than himself and turned into an octopus in an instant.

"Brother, are you really not afraid?" The girl hugged Ryan's arm and looked around nervously.

"Just kidding, I'm super brave, okay? What do you think I've ever been afraid of since I was a child?"

"Does being afraid of eating mushrooms count?"

"Well, that's a personal preference." Ryan tried to argue, and comforted Ling who was holding his left hand: "Don't be afraid, with me here, no evil spirits can get close to me."

"But we were scared just now."

"It was just an accident. It must be Wei Wei playing a prank. I'll be prepared and won't do it again next time."

Both hands were held, the left one had already taken shape and felt soft, while the right one was a little hard, but looking at the familiar face, it was as if I was back to walking on the country road at night ten years ago.

They didn't know that Padua had surrendered to the enemy, and they continued searching floor by floor. On the way, they might see a light suddenly come on, or a shadow quickly pass by at the end of the corridor.

It's all Wei Liwei's fault, it's fake, all special effects.

Ryan began to erect a barrier in his heart, and suddenly he felt that he had returned to a fearless state. That was how it was. These things were just scary, not aggressive. Even if they were aggressive, would they be stronger than the Seventh Herrscher?

He walked all the way to the top floor of the hotel. His calmness infected the two girls, and they began to slowly observe their surroundings.

I don't seem so scared anymore, but could you two loosen your hands a little?

"Okay, you two, just walk. If there's an emergency, I won't be able to help."

"No, I'll feel relieved if I hold Brother Ryan."

"Ling, you're a girl, you should be more reserved." Hua let go of her hand and immediately started lecturing, completely forgetting that he had been hugging her tightly just now.

"What does it matter? Anyway, I'm going to marry Brother Ryan when I grow up, so I'll just consider it as getting to know him in advance." Ling answered decisively, and then saw Hua's expression of seeing a ghost, "What's wrong? Didn't my sister tell you?"

Okay, I was wondering why Ying looked so headache, it turns out you are the one who had bad intentions.

She suddenly remembered why Sakura at the front line asked her to keep an eye on Ling. She originally thought that she was trying to stop her from having the super transformation surgery, but it turned out that this was the problem.

Ryan was also very upset, but he didn't think too much about it. He thought that the words of a 15 or 16-year-old child could not be taken seriously.

Ling got even more excited. She took two steps back, bent down, and pointed at her large chest. "Don't glare at me, Sister Hua. I won't snatch it from you. My sister and I are in the same boat. You can treat it as a gift, buy one get one free."

What a fucking gift.

The corners of Ryan's mouth began to twitch. This girl was going too far. Okay, the sisters' rice bowl was tempting, but am I that kind of person?

Just as he was about to scold him, he suddenly felt the surroundings become brighter. The sudden bright light made him squint his eyes. He subconsciously raised his head and looked around. He saw that all the searchlights around the rooftop were lit up, and then dozens of "ghosts" were running around.

It was really Wei Wei who was causing all this trouble. Her purpose was to...

He suddenly remembered the questionnaire he had written on the plane, and immediately understood who the mastermind was. Okay, Alicia, you're not being my wingman, you just want to be my dad, right?

He was feeling somewhat proud of himself after figuring everything out, when he suddenly heard Hua speak.

"Brother, why is Ling missing?"

what?

Ryan lowered his head decisively. At the same time, the strong light disappeared and the rooftop became dark again. He didn't think much about it and followed the footprints on the snow. He raised the flashlight and suddenly stopped.

A swarm of insects crawled over, and upon closer inspection they were all cockroaches. A crimson flame appeared in his palm.

Just a little spark would be enough to burn all the insects that had no reaction to Honkai energy, but he paused for a moment, quietly swept the entire city with his authority, gritted his teeth and grabbed Hua who was about to attack.

"Let's retreat. Some people are waiting for us to commit a foul."

He didn't scan any enemies just now, so how could he not understand who was causing trouble?

"But......"

"Ling has been invited to have tea. What a bullshit expedition. It's clearly an opportunity to mess with me." Ryan pulled the girl away. Hua also found that although these insects were disgusting, they were not aggressive.

However, no normal person would want to be crawling with bugs, so the two of them quickly retreated, slammed the door shut, and leaned against it, gasping for breath.

"puff."

"What are you laughing at?" Ryan turned his head, and with the light reflected from the flashlight, he could see the girl's white teeth.

"It feels like you haven't been this embarrassed for a long time. You were actually chased all over the ground by some bugs."

Ryan rolled his eyes. If countless limbs touched his skin, he would be scared to death. If he couldn't help but bring trouble upon himself, then Alicia would laugh her face off.

No wonder she said that using Honkai energy was equivalent to being afraid. Is this fat woman so smart? Could it be that Mei was giving her advice again? And these bugs looked like the work of Mebius.

If you dare to join hands to deal with me, I will settle the score with you slowly after I win this expedition.

"Come on, let's go find the 'treasure'. If it's her, I probably know where it is."

"Aren't we going to look for Padu and Ling?"

"It's strange that I can find him. He's probably laughing somewhere."

Ryan turned and left, the damn desire to win burning in his heart. He wanted to see what other tricks Alicia could come up with.

Would I be scared? Just kidding, if the end jumps out, I won't even blink.

Hua was stunned for a moment, then heard the rustling sound of insects crawling. He shuddered and quickly chased after it.

No matter if there were many ghosts or a skeleton suddenly jumped out from behind the door, Ryan's expression never changed. He held Hua's little hand tightly and chose to ignore everything.

Now that we know who the mastermind is, these things are too easy for us. As a doctor of psychology, he has superb psychological counseling skills.

Even if it is more realistic than any other haunted house in the world, it is still fake. It is even more naive to try to trick my nerve reflexes like a knee-jerk reaction. I can deal with it by suppressing the pain.

He poked an iron needle into his thigh. The pain would slow down his reaction so that he would not be scared by something that suddenly jumped out.

"Brother, you are serious again. Is it necessary to go to this extent? I hope you won't hold Ai Li responsible for this later."

Hua was speechless, but he knew that Ryan was a man with a strong desire to win. Once he got too excited, he could not be persuaded back.

The two left the hotel directly, crossed the street, saw all kinds of disgusting bugs and magical tricks along the way, and finally arrived at the other end of the valley.

There is a barbed wire fence here with an iron plate hanging on it that says "Military Area, No Entry". Looking inside, you can see a deep cave entrance, but the iron door that should have been closed seems to have been wiped off with an eraser, and a large piece is missing.

There is actually a military base in this beautiful valley. The conflict of style made Hua twist his head back and forth.
