When Lin Sanjiu realized that she had left the living room, her vision darkened before she could even look around.
"The Doll's House Pocket Dimension is really annoying." Lin Sanjiu fumbled around and found a chair beside her. She counted to three in her mind, but the light did not come on.
When Lin Sanjiu was listening to the introduction of the Pocket Dimension, she counted to two in her mind and the light would go off once.
At that time, she was so focused on the introduction that she did not dare to be distracted. Hence, she only tried two to three times, and the result was the same every time. She did not expect that when the Pocket Dimension officially began, the duration and frequency of the switch between light and dark would change stealthily. However, the boy did not even make a sound.
When she counted to four, the light in front of her suddenly brightened.
With the help of the snowy blue light, Lin Sanjiu realized that she was standing behind a large mahogany desk. Opposite the desk was a face that looked exactly like hers.
One.
Under the light, the amber-colored eyes on the doll's face looked black. It stared straight into Lin Sanjiu's eyes without any expression.
"You placed your starting position in the corner between the desk and the wall, and you used the doll as a wager. How can you pretend to be fair?"
Two.
Lin Sanjiu grabbed the swivel chair beside her. When she counted to three in her mind, the chair was already raised high into the air. She swung both her arms, and the chair, along with a gust of wind, flew toward her other self.
Four.
The light was still on. Although the other "Lin Sanjiu" was essentially a doll, she was not slow. She immediately ducked and the chair flew over her head, landing on the floor with a loud thud.
However, even though "Lin Sanjiu" managed to dodge the chair, she wasn't prepared for the table that Lin Sanjiu had kicked away. The heavy mahogany table swung across the floor like a pendulum. Just as it was about to hit the doll, the room turned dark without any warning.
Lin Sanjiu cursed inwardly. She understood now. The switch between light and dark would not follow any pattern.
Although she could no longer see the doll, the room was quiet. She did not hear the muffled sound of the desk hitting the body. Perhaps it was because the doll changed its position as soon as the light went out.
Fortunately, the card did not require light. She hurriedly waved her hand, and a long stick appeared in her palm. In the darkness, she swept the long stick around while trying to walk out slowly.
… Where did he go?
As soon as he thought of this, his eyes lit up again. Sure enough, there was no pattern. The duration of the darkness last time seemed to be especially short.
She quickly looked around and realized that she was almost at the center of the study. The door was just a few steps away from her right. The furniture on the desk was a mess. The computer, folders, pen holders, and other miscellaneous items were scattered all over the floor in front of the bookshelf on the left.
The only "Lin Sanjiu" was nowhere to be seen in the study.
The place where the doll was standing just now was in front of the bookshelf on the left. It was about three meters away from the back of the desk … When the light was on, the doll could not teleport …
Wait a minute!
The moment Lin Sanjiu remembered that the doll could not teleport when the light was on, she felt goosebumps all over her body. She knew where the doll was.
Just as she twisted her body, the room was plunged into darkness again. However, just before the darkness fell, Lin Sanjiu saw something.
She saw the back of "Lin Sanjiu"'s head when she turned around with her.
The doll was standing less than three meters away from the wall of the study. Lin Sanjiu walked out the moment the light went out. This meant that the doll had appeared behind her after it teleported.
The doll could not teleport when the light was on, but it could imitate Lin Sanjiu's movements. The doll, who looked exactly the same as Lin Sanjiu, was swinging the non-existent stick in its hand as it slowly walked toward her from behind.
Standing in the darkness, Lin Sanjiu felt a chill run down her spine.
"What about now? Where did the doll go? Did it go behind me again?
No, the doll is not important. As long as I can defeat it with force, I won't be in danger. The most important thing is Puppeteer's safety. If I don't find him, I won't be able to calm down. I can't afford to lose one more person.
Lin Sanjiu continued to sweep her body with the long stick as she retreated toward the door of the study room. When the light came on, the study room was empty. The bookshelves, the floor, and the wooden table were all shrouded in a layer of white, as if they were in a morgue.
She reached for the doorknob and scanned the study, but she could not find the doll anywhere.
While the light was still on, Lin Sanjiu quickly opened the door and dashed out. Then, she closed the door behind her. As soon as the door was closed, the whole doll's house became dark again. Lin Sanjiu did not even see what was outside the study.
She leaned her back against the door and pointed the stick in front of her. Even if she wanted to close her eyes, she could only keep them wide open and wait for the light to come back on.
She had to consider the possibility that "Lin Sanjiu" might be chasing after her and replacing her, or she might be looking for Puppeteer … He should be able to tell, right?
However, even if he couldn't tell, Lin Sanjiu did not have to worry that he would have physical contact with the doll. Unless it was absolutely necessary, Puppeteer would not touch her skin.
As soon as this thought flashed through her mind, the darkness faded away. Lin Sanjiu squinted her eyes and found herself in the living room again.
The living room of the doll's house was huge. When they entered the pocket dimension, they came in through the wall on the right side of the sofa. Now, she had changed her direction. The sofa was only about ten meters away from her.
She could vaguely see a tiny version of herself on the dark screen of the TV.
Where was Puppeteer? He was no longer in the living room.
*
"The pocket dimension will begin now. Please try your best to hold on until the end!"
The moment the pocket dimension began, Puppeteer knew that he had been "picked up" from the living room and placed in another place.
Just this point alone was enough to make his fingers curl unconsciously. This was a small movement he made when his killing intent was aroused. Every time his pale and slender fingers straightened, his joints would tremble slightly. It was as if he was trying to break through some kind of resistance and plunge his fingers deep into his target's life.
'There's still time. I'll get my chance when I get out of here. '
'This seems to be a bedroom? ' There seemed to be a bed in front of him.
Four. '
Puppeteer's eyes lit up instantly. He looked around and found that he was indeed facing a bed. The bedroom was huge. The king-sized bed looked as if it was floating in a sea of pale light. The end of the bed was facing the bedroom door, and there was a distance of six to seven meters between them.
The bedroom was empty except for him. There was no one in it.
Puppeteer slowly sat on the edge of the bed and leaned his back on the pillow at the head of the bed. His skinny and scrawny body was slowly wrapped around by a thick layer of soft cotton.
His vision suddenly switched to darkness. 'It seems like the light will go on and off according to the mood of the pocket dimension. There's no pattern to it.'
Puppeteer really wanted to take a good look at what a puppet should look like.
A few pillows were stacked on top of each other. They were soft and supported him. Puppeteer leaned on the pillows. He vaguely felt a little more comfortable, but he wasn't sure.
He didn't know when it started.
His body seemed to have turned into a concrete cage. It was narrow, hard, and cold. If he didn't lean on something soft, he would feel a dull pain in his soul if he was alone with his body for too long.
This time, the darkness lasted for a very short time. It was so short that when Puppeteer raised his arm, the room was lit up again.
Looking at the stiff Puppeteer doll standing at the end of the bed, Puppeteer almost laughed.
'So this is what I've become now. '
With a wave of Puppeteer's hand, the doll was pulled out from the end of the bed like a marionette. With an unimaginable force, it was smashed into the wall on the right side of the bedroom. The wall in the pocket dimension absorbed the impact, but it still couldn't cover the dull sound of impact.
Puppeteer slid down from the wall. His neck was obviously broken by the gravity, and his head was tilted to one side. However, just as the pocket dimension said, the doll was not injured at all. It was moving its shoulders and turning its head back to its original position.
"Being a creature in the pocket dimension is much better than making me angry."
Puppeteer's cold and creepy voice rang out in the darkness that had returned to them.
He was already standing by the bedroom door. He reached out his hand and opened the door.
