S-level high-risk personality, you call this a pitiful thing?

Chapter 54: Dream Core Space 54
Lan Tong searched the house.

This house has three rooms, a bathroom, and an open kitchen connected to the living room with sliding doors.

There was a wedding photo hanging in the first room. The man and woman in the photo were wearing vintage suits and wedding dresses. Their faces were covered by huge eyes. The two eyes were looking at each other, a little crossed, but it was clear that they were the eyes of two different people.

There is a circle of white flowers around their eyes, as if they are not people, but two daisies blooming with eyes as stamens.

Lan Tong wanted to go into the room to take a look, but it seemed that because the room had been empty for a long time, there was always an indescribable smell of rotten wood and dust in the room.

She hesitated for a moment, did not go in, and turned to go to the house opposite.

The room opposite seemed to be for children. There was a study table, a cartoon character wardrobe, and a few toys scattered on the floor.

The remaining room was on the other side of the restaurant, and when Lan Tong was about to go to the last room.

Lu Li's voice suddenly sounded.

"Don't look back."

"..."

This time, Lan Tong was obedient and didn't move.

She waited quietly for a while, and suddenly remembered that the door of the room behind her with the wedding photos was not closed.

In an instant, the two eyes looking at each other appeared in Lan Tong's mind, and he actually felt a chill on his back. For a moment, countless horrific images emerged in his mind.

Lan Tong was a little unsteady on her feet. Perhaps it was because she had been standing for too long, she felt herself becoming more and more nervous.

"What happened behind me?"

Lan Tong couldn't help but ask Lu Li in her mind.

Lu Li asked blankly: "What happened behind you?"

Lan Tong was stunned, not knowing what Lu Li was up to.

"Didn't you tell me not to look back?"

Lu Li said: "I didn't say anything."

Judging from Lu Li's tone, she didn't sound like she was joking.

Lan Tong didn't think there was any need for her to tease him.

Lu Li's brain wasn't very good to begin with. Even if she was angry about what happened just now, it was impossible for her to come up with such a prank so quickly.

Lu Li noticed that something was wrong with Lan Tong and asked, "What's wrong?"

The surroundings were quiet and silent. Lan Tong stood there. There were two rooms with open doors in front and behind her. She didn't dare to look back or move.

I could only continue to stand there stiffly, answering unconsciously with my breath held back: "Someone just spoke to me in your voice."

When Lu Li heard this, his brows instantly furrowed.

"How is that possible? Are you sure you heard it in your head as well?"

Lan Tong thought about it carefully and said, "I'm not sure. At that time, my attention was focused on the content of the words. I didn't pay attention to whether I heard it with my ears or in my mind. It was only when I heard your voice that I subconsciously believed the content of the words and stood here without moving."

“But I didn’t hear any sound.”

Lu Li was a little confused about what was going on. "If someone really said something, you heard it with your ears, and I could also hear it in the space."

Lan Tong was about to speak when the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

"Buzz-"

Her heart skipped a beat. She took out her cell phone and saw that the caller was [*].

Lan Tong held the vibrating phone in her hand, and for a moment she hesitated whether to answer it or not.

The task prompts clearly state that there is no limit to the incoming calls, and you can choose to answer or hang up. Among all the calls, only three are from the Chosen One.

That means the rest of the calls are from characters in the dungeon.

"Lu Li, how long have I been here?" "Less than ten minutes."

Will there be a chosen one who will call her in such a short time?
There are no new Chosen Ones in this dungeon. Even for a Chosen One like Lan Tong who has gone through a dungeon, everyone has only three chances to make a phone call. Is there really someone who makes a phone call ten minutes after entering the dungeon?

Why are you calling? For help?

But Lan Tong seemed unable to provide any help to the other party.

During the hesitation, the other party hung up the phone.

Then, a text message came on the phone.

[Thank you for not answering his call, I'm going to eat him up]

Lan Tong's heart skipped a beat.

Is this text message sent by the copy character?

Is the content true or false? If it is true, does it mean that the phone call just now was a call for help from a chosen one? What kind of call for help is it? Could it be that... when making a phone call, the chosen one will be in a safe and unattackable state?
Or maybe the text message was fake, and the copy character was trying to make me think that I had missed a call from the Chosen One, so that I could use the process of elimination and hang up the third call from the Chosen One after receiving two calls? Indirectly killing another Chosen One?
If I don't answer or hang up, will it be counted as a wasted call?
These doubts were not explained clearly in the prompts, so Lan Tong could only figure them out on his own.

While Lan Tong was thinking, another call came in.

The caller's remarks are still [*].

Lu Li’s voice rang out.

"Take it and give it a try."

Lan Tong wanted to answer the call herself. She wanted to make sure that calls that could not be connected were not counted in the dialing times.

With her finger on the answer button, Lan Tong hesitated and didn't press it.

"Lu Li, if I get caught in an illusion after answering the call, can you find a way to wake me up from it?"

"it should be OK."

After getting the answer, Lan Tong felt relieved and prepared to press the answer button.

Lu Li suddenly asked: "Why do you have to answer the phone?"

"I want to verify the function of the telephone in this instance."

"What use will it have? If it's a big demon, you'll be scared. If it's the Chosen One, you won't be able to help each other."

"But this phone call was definitely not given for no reason, it must have its purpose..." At this point, Lan Tong paused and asked curiously: "Didn't you tell me to answer the phone and try it out at the beginning?"

Lu Li fell into a strange silence for a long time, and then she said, "It's not me."

In an instant, Lan Tong felt cold sweat breaking out all over his body.

damn it.

Come again?

How many words does the person disguised as Lu Li have to say before he gives up?
Lu Li said: "You may have been under an illusion, or someone may have quietly invaded your brain. I am not sure yet. The only thing that is certain is that I cannot hear the sounds she made."

Lan Tong remained silent, his phone continued to vibrate, and the “*” on the caller ID seemed to have become some kind of strange death warrant.

Lu Li: "Why don't you answer it first? If anything happens to you, I can take your place."

Lan Tong was already a little numb: "You said it this time, right?"

"Yes."

Lu Li couldn't understand why the copy character could fake her voice. Could it be that he could sense her presence? Does that mean...she has been discovered by the Sky Eye?

"I said, you take it, if you can't, leave it to me."

"it is good."
