Chapter 221 The Siren's Song
A dark purple current flowed like a galaxy in Jiang Lin's eyes as their fingers intertwined.
"Thank goodness it was you."
Jiang Lin's voice was as light as snowflakes, so soft it would melt at the touch. Yet Ji Xing still heard it, reaching out to gently hug Jiang Lin and chuckling, "After all, it cost a lot of money."
Jiang Lin raised the corners of his eyes slightly, and the gloom on his face completely disappeared: "Then let's hear you call me master?"
Ji Xingyi, who had selectively lost her hearing, turned and left the third consultation room.
"You can call out in bed later if you want." Jiang Lin blinked.
Ji Xingyi turned around helplessly and took the boy's hand: "I can never win an argument with you."
Beyond the third consultation room was a left turn. Jiang Lin didn't go in immediately, but mentally mapped out the road and terrain she had just passed.
Jiang Lin: "The terrain on this floor is symmetrical about the central axis of the ship. Behind the wall of the sixth consultation room is the third consultation room. This corridor is shaped like a '回' (hui), and going up will lead back to the sixth consultation room."
"There should be a left-hand passage in the middle of this road. If we take that path, we'll reach the fifth examination room and the second examination room!"
Jiang Lin figured that Ivy and Mona should be coming out soon, so he decided to wait at the entrance. Sure enough, he soon heard footsteps, but it was only the footsteps of one person.
The crisp, short tap-tap tap of high heels allowed Jiang Lin to identify Mona as the person in question.
The two hid at the fork in the road, waiting for Mona to return towards the fifth examination room. Unexpectedly, Mona turned down at the three-way intersection, heading towards the third examination room!
Jiang Lin's expression shifted slightly. He led Ji Xingyi back, using the U-shaped passage between the fifth and third consultation rooms to try and bypass Mona.
Just then, another unexpected accident occurred!
Just as the two were about to return to the fork in the road with the mermaid's portrait, the elevator rang with a "ding"!
Someone came out of the stairwell!
Jiang Lin frowned slightly. If they went out directly, they would be seen by the people coming from the direction of the stairs, and the two of them would not be able to go back. Mona's footsteps were approaching from the passage behind them!
The two of them were stuck at the corner!
Jiang Lin looked at Ji Xingyi, and the same two words were in their eyes—"Make a move!"
"Don't use your abilities!" Jiang Lin warned.
If you reveal your abilities to NPCs, it will definitely attract the attention of the BOSS.
The footsteps that came out of the elevator were chaotic, and there was more than one person. Ji Xingyi had no time to hesitate and turned around to rush towards Mona behind him.
Mona was taken aback by the human who suddenly appeared at the end of the passage. Before she could react, Ji Xingyi punched her squarely in the face.
Mona was startled and instinctively raised her hand to defend herself. Fortunately, Ji Xingyi's body did not have the strength of the original body, so Mona was not injured.
Ji Xingyi knew this body had no advantage, but fortunately, his fighting skills were ingrained in his mind, allowing him to hold Mona back for a moment. The relentless attacks forced Mona to raise her hand to block.
Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Lin flicked his finger, and Fabian's dagger appeared, plunging into Mona's abdomen. He then twisted the blade with force, increasing the bleeding from the wound!
Within two or three seconds, Mona lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground.
Jiang Lin and Ji Xingyi dared not linger. People from the direction of the elevator heard the fighting and were rushing towards them!
As Ji Xingyi reached the corner, she pushed Jiang Lin and said, "Go to the sixth consultation room, I'll lead them away!"
If the two of them run together, the alleyways on the basement level can easily become blocked. But Ji Xingyi wants to lead them towards the fifth consultation room so that Jiang Lin can use the U-shaped passageway to block their line of sight and circle back to the elevator from the sixth consultation room!
Jiang Lin frowned. He didn't like Ji Xingyi telling him to leave first, but it was indeed the best solution at the moment. There was no time to hesitate, so he had to leave first.
The people who came out of the elevator were two male waiters with red nameplates whom Ji Xingyi had never seen before, as well as three ordinary waiters.
"Mona!"
"Don't run!"
Once Ji Xingyi realized that the person behind him was chasing him, he immediately ran towards the passageway of the fifth consultation room as planned.
As Ji Xingyi passed by the fifth consultation room, she noticed that, just as Jiang Lin had said, the fifth and second consultation rooms were facing each other and were symmetrical about the central axis.
Ji Xingyi glanced around quickly; Liu Li was lying on the bed, whether pretending to be asleep or unconscious, he couldn't tell. Lu Xingtong wasn't in the room, so he simply continued running forward.
As he ran, he came to another U-shaped corridor. Ji Xing instantly realized that this corridor was symmetrical to the previous one. He immediately turned left and found the fourth consultation room!
Finally, they found Lu Xingtong in the fourth consultation room. Ji Xingyi realized that the people behind him had caught up, so he simply circled around the U-shaped passage to buy time for Jiang Lin.
Annoyed by the red nameplate chasing behind, it suddenly stopped and opened its mouth, seemingly doing something.
His lips were moving.
Ji Xingyi didn't hear any sound, but it felt like her brain had been suddenly struck by an invisible hammer. Her head buzzed, and she lost her balance and fell to the ground.
The siren's song?
The power of the crimson water surged in Ji Xing's eyes, spontaneously protecting its master. But then he remembered Jiang Lin's instructions, so he withdrew his ghostly power, chose to surrender, and lay on the ground, waiting for the red nameplate to capture him.
