Chapter 147 Your mount doesn't seem to like you?

Chen Yu stared at the line of text floating in mid-air.

He fell into deep thought.

Then he replied:

【Chen Yu: What gift?】

【Lin Yue: It's those seven people, the seven people right in front of you~】

【Chen Yu: What do you mean?】

【Lin Yue: I know.】

【Lin Yue: You like those things.】

【Chen Yu: I like them?】

【Lin Yue: Yeah, you like them, because you go there every time.】

【Lin Yue: I saw you in Area A and Area B.】

【Lin Yue: You stood there for a long, long time.】

【Lin Yue: And then those corpses became different.】

【Lin Yue: You really like corpses, don't you?】

Chen Yu stared at those lines of text, his memory racing.

When he used the Grand Tutor Container, he had intentionally avoided others.

But how did Lin Yue know?

It couldn't be that she was there the whole time, could it?

Chen Yu suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

【Lin Yue: I'm not wrong, am I?】

【Lin Yue: Why have you stopped talking?】

Just then, the bathroom door opened.

Sun Haiyu poked half his head out, looking bewildered.

"Big brother Chen Yu, I've searched the whole bathroom, and there are no clues at all..."

Sun Haiyu scratched his head and walked out.

He sighed with emotion: "It seems the murderer's strength was overwhelming, so there are no clues. These people died too miserably!"

Chen Yu didn't speak, still deep in thought.

Sun Haiyu noticed his expression was off.

But he didn't dare ask more.

He just stood quietly to the side, not even daring to breathe loudly.

In the living room, there was only the faint creaking of ropes.

Those seven people were still swaying.

After a few seconds.

Chen Yu waved his hand: "You... go check the bedroom first."

Sun Haiyu felt as if he had been granted a grand pardon and quickly walked into the South Room bedroom, gently closing the door.

The living room fell silent again.

【Lin Yue: Why have you stopped talking?】

【Chen Yu: Where are you?】

There was silence for a few seconds on the other end.

Then a message popped up.

【Lin Yue: Why are you suddenly concerned about my location?】

【Chen Yu: Tell me.】

【Lin Yue: I don't want to say. Chen Yu, don't force me, okay?】

【Chen Yu: No.】

【Lin Yue: Well then, I'm in a place where I can see you~】

Chen Yu narrowed his eyes and quickly scanned his surroundings.

He swept through every corner of the living room; there was no possibility of anyone hiding.

【Lin Yue: Just kidding, no need to be nervous~】

【Lin Yue: I'm just teasing you.】

【Lin Yue: Are you angry?】

【Lin Yue: If you don't talk, it means you're not angry~】

Chen Yu didn't reply and looked out the door again.

The hallway was empty.

Obviously, there was no place to hide there either.

【Lin Yue: Don't be angry, I just want to know why you keep asking where I am?】

【Chen Yu: I want to see you.】

【Lin Yue: You miss me?】

【Chen Yu: Yes, I miss you.】

【Lin Yue: I don't believe you...】

【Chen Yu: ...】

【Lin Yue: You've never said it, not even once.】

【Lin Yue: Not even a single time.】

【Lin Yue: Every time it's me looking for you, you never look for me.】

【Lin Yue: And now you suddenly say you miss me?】

【Chen Yu: Where exactly are you? Let's meet.】

【Lin Yue: You're still asking.】

【Lin Yue: You don't miss me at all, you just want to find me.】

【Lin Yue: But it doesn't matter. If you want to look, then look.】

【Lin Yue: I'm very, very far from you. I just want to watch you from afar, that's enough~】

【Chen Yu: Stop lying.】

【Lin Yue: I'm not lying!】

【Chen Yu: If you're far away, how would you know to ask about the gift? How would you know where I am?】

【Lin Yue: Could it be that our hearts are linked?】

Chen Yu took a deep breath; he felt that communication with Lin Yue was simply impossible.

She was only immersed in her own world, her own art.

Chen Yu shook his head. It seemed basically impossible to get information out of her.

【Lin Yue: By the way, I remember you said you were very satisfied with Zhang Zixuan?】

【Chen Yu: Of course, she is a qualified mount.】

【Lin Yue: But your mount doesn't seem to like you?】

Chen Yu was stunned.

What did this sentence mean?

He hadn't figured it out yet.

The next second—

【Lin Yue: Image】

An image popped up.

The picture showed a gravel road, palm trees, and afternoon sunlight.

In the distance, a person was running.

Running wretchedly, hair disheveled, dragging half a broken chain around her neck.

The other end of the chain was connected to something, like a glass plate, dragging a long mark on the ground.

Chen Yu's pupils constricted slightly.

"Clatter!"

He quickly ran to the window and looked down.

That runner,

was Zhang Zixuan!

When Chen Yu came up just now, he had clearly tied that chain to a fire hydrant. That thing was welded into the wall; with Zhang Zixuan's meager strength, it was impossible for her to pull it.

Unless...

someone helped her?

The first person Chen Yu thought of was Lin Yue.

But he immediately dismissed this guess.

Because at the end of the street where Zhang Zixuan was running—

At the corner,

A figure slowly walked out.

"That idiot..."

Chen Yu cursed under his breath.

Just then, footsteps came from behind.

Sun Haiyu walked out of the bedroom, scratching his head as he walked.

"Big brother Chen Yu, there's nothing over there, just a few broken mattresses and a pile of rotten clothes..."

As he spoke, his voice got stuck in his throat.

Because he saw Chen Yu standing on the windowsill.

Half of his body was already leaning out.

"Big... Big brother Chen Yu? What are you doing?!"

Chen Yu didn't look back.

"Stay here. Don't move."

As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped down.

Sun Haiyu's pupils shrank, and he rushed to the window.

He poked his head out to look down.

Third Floor.

Over six meters high.

The moment Chen Yu landed, he bent his knees to absorb the impact and rolled forward.

Then he sprang up and charged forward without looking back.

His black silhouette grew further and further away in the sunlight.

Sun Haiyu's mouth hung open.

"Ho... Holy shit!!!"

Holding onto the window frame, he looked in that direction, completely dumbfounded.

The wind whistled past his ears.

The few Awakened standing far away downstairs also saw this scene.

"What was that flash?!"

"He-he-he-he jumped down!"

"Good heavens, is this guy crazy?!"

"No, look! He's standing up! He's running!"

"Is he even fucking human?!"

Amidst the shock, Chen Yu had already turned into a black shadow and was sprinting!

Inside the room on the Third Floor, Sun Haiyu stood by the window, looking down at the drop from the Third Floor...

He swallowed hard: "That actually works?"
