The girl's voice was soft and a little nasal,
It was as if she was whispering to him coquettishly, making him unable to raise his guard at all.
Under the gaze of that pair of demonic purple eyes, Culolo's hands subconsciously moved, not knowing where to touch from.
The slightly shabby bronze key appeared in his hand. Su Yu did not relax her gaze at all, but her hand moved down along the man's shoulder.
The movement of her lips was still ambiguous and soft,
The frequency of her heartbeat in her chest quietly increased, holding the thought of being completely bewitched,
At this moment, Su Yu herself did not realize,
What a moving expression she showed, but when she thought that the person she was going to bewitch was him,
It was as if she had instinctively learned all the seductive actions.
Her fingertips had already touched the metal with her body temperature.
The moment the key was accurately in her hand,
The two's lips that were intimately connected also happened to separate,
The confusion in the man's eyes only stayed for half a second before it instantly turned into a sharp sobriety,
At the same time, Su Yu suddenly kicked the edge of the sofa,
Her entire body quickly retreated!
Her movements did not hesitate at all,
It was as if she had already expected the man's sobriety,
She also had a clear understanding of what she could do,
But no matter how straightforward her movements were,
The man on the sofa also instantly exploded,
He chased after her figure —
She could almost see that pair of black eyes staring at her,
What a cold killing intent.
This was a blatant betrayal.
Fortunately, she had already snatched the key in the first moment, and her body was still rapidly retreating in mid-air. Su Yu put her hands behind her back, she was only prepared to escape into the shop and lock the door the moment she leaned against the wall. Although this series of actions was extremely risky, the current situation did not allow her to think about what to do if she could not do it..
She had to do it!
The distance between her and him was less than two meters, and this distance was rapidly shrinking under the explosive force of the man who was several times higher than her!
Su Yu's eyes widened. The man's expressionless face occupied her entire line of sight. She was still using the ability of these eyes, but she could no longer get any effect. Culolo also discovered her hidden ability at the first moment. As he chased after her, his right hand had already stretched out far away, attacking the pair of eyes. His slender fingertips were full of murderous intent.
That finger with psychokinesis was less than twenty centimeters away from her eyelids!
At this moment, the hand behind her back felt the key being inserted into the latch. Almost in the next moment, the wooden door behind her had quietly formed and opened a gap.
His hand was only a few centimeters away from her!
The girl's eyes widened. At this moment, she was strangely calm in the face of extreme danger. She wasn't frightened, nor was she afraid. Her brain instantly calculated the gains and losses. She didn't even close her eyes and used her body to block the wooden door.
Between being caught again and losing her eyes, she chose the latter without hesitation.
She even felt the man's finger on her eyelids.
In the blink of an eye, the girl fell into the door. She kicked the door shut, and her right hand pulled out the key as she rolled.
It was also at this moment that a dagger stabbed out of the wooden door. The blade pierced deeply into the wooden board, and the tip of the dagger shone with a faint blue light.
It was poisonous, and it was definitely highly poisonous!
The girl's hair stood on end, but fortunately, as the shop was disconnected from the world, the dagger did not continue to penetrate deeper. Instead, it stopped moving forward. The tip of the dagger was completely separated from the handle, and it fell at her feet with a clang.
Su Yu was still in a state of shock as he watched the frightening 'wound' on the wooden door gradually heal. Soon, it was restored to its original state.
However, the dagger that fell on the ground reminded her that everything that had just happened was not a dream.
She had escaped back.
At this moment, her body seemed to slow down by half a beat, and she began to sweat profusely. Her heart was beating so fast that it almost became a drum, and it pounded so hard that it hurt her eardrums. Su Yu fell to the ground, and subconsciously reached out to touch her eyes.
It was still there. Only now did a sharp pain appear on her eyelids. She even felt a trace of heat flowing down the corner of her eyes. It was the last trace left by his fingernails.
But what about his thoughts?
— —
Kyōko, who was left alone in the shop, did not feel that much time had passed.
Once the shop was disconnected from the outside world, the small world in the shop had its own set of time flow. However, it lacked the contrast between day and night, which made it difficult to estimate. If she had to say, it was probably a few weeks.
When she heard the commotion outside the house, she ran out. The young girl whom she had not seen for a few weeks was sitting on the ground in a daze. Beside her feet was a broken blade, and there was a thin trail of blood flowing down the side of the young girl's face. The dazzling red mark on her skin was shockingly seductive, like tears of blood flowing down from the corner of her eyes. It was silent but heroic.
Before Kyōko could greet her, Su Yu noticed her. She turned to look at the unscathed brown-haired girl and forced a smile. "Kyōko, long time no see. Although I want to explain the current situation to you, but …"
She stood up and wiped the blood on her cheek. She turned to the display shelf in the shop and said, "… But this is a special time. I have to act quickly. That guy has the ability to teleport. He must have guessed what I'm going to do. I have to get there before that …"
She seemed to be explaining to her, but also seemed to be talking to herself. She was rambling on about what to do next, but soon, a soft 'pa' sound interrupted her words.
It was a simple empty box that fell to the ground. It did not make much noise when it fell to the ground. Kyōko only then noticed that her hands were trembling non-stop.
Su Yu stared blankly at the box that fell to the ground. For a moment, her mind went blank. Although she kept talking about the next arrangements, she did not know what she was doing.
That man's last gaze seemed to be engraved in her mind. Mixed with the ambiguous kiss and the beating of her heart, the warmth that came from where their bodies touched, all kinds of memories mixed together and stirred in her mind, causing her to be absent-minded for a moment, not knowing where she was now.
Did she leave him? Did she leave just like that?
It was something that she had been looking forward to for a long time, but now, Su Yu did not feel a trace of joy. She looked at her trembling hands in confusion and was speechless for a moment.
While she was in a daze, the girl with the fragrance of cotton and linen hugged her from behind.
"… Don't be afraid," the girl's hesitant voice sounded behind her. It seemed that she did not know the most effective way to comfort Lin Sanjiu, but she still tried her best. "Don't be afraid. You'll fly away if you feel pain …"
This was obviously her usual way of coaxing children. However, Su Yu's eyes turned red in an instant. Only when she heard the girl's gentle words did she notice that her heart was in pain.
Her heart was in pain.

Vivian had been locked up in the private prison specially customized by the ten old men for a long time.
For the past two months, the torment she had suffered was not only physical, but also mental. She had not eaten normally for a long time, and even the amount of water she drank had been maintained at a level where she would not die. Although she had long been used to enduring hunger and thirst when she lived in Meteor Street, the chronic torment of having no hope for more than two months had pushed her spirit to a terrible state.
She had too many grudges with the ten old men. Not only when she represented the exploration team, but also when she was running for the Fiery Eyes that flowed into the market and all kinds of precious information. So when the ten old men caught her, she did not think of getting out alive.
Perhaps when those people told her that it was the man who betrayed her with his own hands, she was already dead.
She knew why she was still imprisoned here. On September 1st, the You Kexin Auction, the Ten Old Men planned to use her as a show to liven things up and arrange her in the middle of the auction to further establish their prestige. However, the following days would probably be the real torture.
She did not know what kind of deal Culolo had reached with them. Maybe that man would not see her again until he died.
Vivian had never doubted that she would die one day. From the moment she waved a knife that could kill the first man who snatched her food, she never thought that she would have a good ending. She just thought that the day would come so soon.
The plot had just begun.
The blue-haired girl leaned against the cold wall. The torture of the past few months had changed her appearance. Her lips, which were once as delicate as petals, were full of chapped wounds. Thick blood condensed on them, turning into a liquid that moistened her mouth. She was so thin that she was out of shape. The old and new wounds all over her body had festered together. She was haggard and had experienced the vicissitudes of life. She was clearly only in her teens, but her eyes revealed the despair of dying.
She never thought that she would be able to see that man again.
"… Hasn't he appeared yet?" The man who suddenly appeared outside the cage seemed to be talking to himself. Then, he greeted her as if nothing had happened. "Long time no see, Vivian."
"…" The girl could not speak. Her dry and hoarse throat had not made any sound other than screaming for a long time. She did not even have the strength to express her surprise. She just looked in that direction with her eyes wide open.
The man was dressed in pure black casual clothes. He was holding a black hardcover book in his hand, which made him look like a dignified and abstinent church priest. However, Vivian was keenly aware that he seemed to be in a bad state at this time.
Ever since they came to Meteor Street, Culolo's temperament had been restrained a lot, especially when he organized the exploration team activities. As the leader, he maximized his calmness and rationality. He was almost like an emotionless machine, only caring about making decisions that were most beneficial to the current situation. However, Vivian knew clearly that he was actually the craziest and craziest person in the entire exploration team.
At this time, although he was still smiling, he gave off a chilling feeling.
It had been a long time since she could feel his emotions so clearly. He was like a wild beast whose territory had been invaded and was looking for a reckless victim.
This kind of Culolo made her tremble a little. Vivian closed her exposed legs. The bars of the cage she was in were engraved with psychic arrays. Not only would the person in the cage be forced into a state of extreme desperation, it could also isolate the psychic energy of the outside world. At this time, she was imprisoned, but for some reason, she felt a sense of security in this cage.
She watched as the man approached the cage step by step. His fingertips touched the cold bars. The lines of the psychic array emitted a milky white halo, forcing him into a state of extreme desperation.
Vivian widened her eyes.
The current Culolo was probably not normal to allow himself to be in a passive situation in an unknown environment. However, the abnormality of normal people would only expose their weaknesses. This man's abnormality would only make him crazier.
But what did this have to do with her being a stray dog?!
Vivian pulled at her painful vocal cords and let out a soft cry, "You … What else do you want …"
Culolo did not care that he was forced into a state of extreme desperation. He pressed his entire body against the side of the cage. His dark eyes were bottomless. Even though there was a certain distance between them, Vivian still felt a strong sense of oppression.
The man stared at her expressionlessly. He was emitting a terrifying aura, but his voice became gentler, "Vivian, keep her here. You know what to do. Keep her here."
"You've never disappointed me, haven't you, Vivian …"
The man's low voice seemed to ring in her ears. That familiar and gentle voice kept washing over the girl's fragile nerves. Vivian subconsciously wanted to cry, but her body did not have any extra water. She could only let out some futile whimpers.
Who was she? Keep who?
Her mind was a mess. The past attachment and the cruel experience played out in her mind. The man's voice calling her name was like a loop of rope, gradually tightening around her neck.
Just as she could not help but shake her head slightly, a creaking sound came from the wall beside her.
She turned her head and saw a familiar and beautiful face right in front of her. The girl who had suddenly popped her head out from behind the door seemed to be looking at her worriedly. The water in her purple eyes was gentle and affectionate, but the trace of blood at the corner of her eyes added a touch of coquettishness to her delicate face. For a moment, she couldn't help but stare at her in a daze.
At this time, there was no one outside the railing.
Not noticing the girl's strange behavior, Su Yu softened her voice and said, "Can you stand up? I'll take you out of here now."
Knowing that the girl should not be able to stand up in her current state, Su Yu stepped out of the shop and reached out to pick up the girl covered in bruises. The weight in her hand was much lighter than she imagined. A trace of pity flashed across her face. Looking left and right, the girl quietly retreated through the door.
So it was her.
Vivian narrowed her eyes. She felt like all the mysteries had been revealed.
She looked at the girl in front of her with a slightly concerned expression. A wave of bitterness surged through her heart. The man's words seemed to ring in her ears, intertwined with her soft comforting voice. It was like the final chapter of some grand music.
