I'm being held captive by a monster

Chapter 234 The cock is the cock, the hen is the hen

"Doctor, how is my child?"

"Her eyes..."

Mom hurried over and looked at Yu Kexin worriedly.

Dad and grandma on the side still moved closer like ghosts.

"Don't worry. Based on my experience, this child's condition is definitely saveable."

"But to know the specific situation, I need to take Ke Xin to the hospital for a systematic examination using professional equipment."

Lin Xing'an looked at Yu Kexin.

He held Yu Kexin's hand, and quietly tightened it a little.

Yu Kexin's heart began to pound.

She was sure that the stinging pain in her ear just now was definitely not a coincidence!
It must be the person who reminded her and hinted to her.

The implication of this situation is that she should not trust the "doctor" in front of her.

but……

Yu Kexin held the shell in her hand, feeling the patterns on it.

She grew this tiny shell almost from small to large, and every tiny bump and dent was exactly right.

This must be the one from Mom.

And this person also seemed to know what someone reminded her in her ear.

I just explained the reason for the change of plan.

So Mom...

Will you wait for me down there...?

Looking at Lin Xing'an's profile with lifeless eyes, Yu Kexin suddenly remembered the voice in her ear reminding her that someone would turn out to look like her mother.

And it was to the extent that she couldn't tell the difference.

So this transformation...will it just change the shell to a point where I can't tell?
but……

At this moment, Yu Kexin seemed to realize that she was caught in a choice between life and death!
Should I believe the doctor in front of me, or the painful reminder in my ears?
Yu Kexin closed her eyes. She was obviously very nervous, but her mind was unusually clear and calm.

Remember, don't believe...

The purpose of the gluttonous ghost is to judge whether you have awakened...

Once you are exposed, you will be eaten immediately...

In just a moment, those reminders in Yu Kexin's ears flashed through her mind again.

And as if she thought of something, Yu Kexin quietly opened her eyes.

"Doctor, do we still need to take her to the hospital for a checkup?"

The muscles on my mother's face twitched and she swallowed inadvertently.

This action was like a thunderclap exploding in Yu Kexin's brain, instantly waking her up from her hesitation!

"Mother!"

Without waiting for her mother to speak, Yu Kexin suddenly shouted!
Then he suddenly broke free from Lin Xing'an's hand!

"Mom! He's not a doctor! He's a psycho!"

"What did he say? I can see with my own eyes! He's trying to trick me away!"

"He also said something like...you're not human! He said you wanted to eat me! He even stole your shells!"

"Mom! Call the police!"

Yu Kexin opened her hands, revealing the shell inside, followed the sound, hugged her mother's arms, and hid behind her.

The voice was trembling and the face was full of fear!
She thought of...

Regardless of whether what the doctor said was true or false, she had a way out!
That is to pretend not to see, pretend not to be awakened!

Because as long as she hasn't awakened, these gluttonous ghosts can't do anything to her!
Even if Lin Xing'an really took her away and her mother was really down there, she pretended to know nothing. Although she couldn't escape, at least she could survive this time!
And she knew her mother, if she was really alive out there.

Even if the rescue fails today, Mom will definitely continue to look for opportunities!

But if Lin Xing'an came to test her, then if she followed Lin Xing'an, it would be equivalent to tacitly believing what Lin Xing'an said!

It was like she knew her family were all monsters and she was doomed to die!

Yu Kexin was breathing heavily, with cold sweat on her forehead, as if she was terrified.

And what she just said made the face of her mother, whom she was holding, grow darker and darker.

Lin Xing'an felt relieved.

But he showed an appearance of suppressing his irritability and violence and laughed.

"Ke Xin, what are you talking about?"

"Didn't we agree on this just now in the room? I'll take you to the hospital to get your eyes checked so you can see your mom and dad again."

He stared at Yu Kexin and said.

"No! You keep saying things I don't understand!"

"Mom, don't believe him! Call the police! Call the police right away!"

"He definitely has bad intentions!"

Yu Kexin shook her head frantically.

"Mom! Say something! Mom? What are you doing?"

"This person is a bad guy! Definitely not a doctor!"

"Xiaodu Xiaodu! Call the police!"

Yu Kexin hugged her mother's arm tightly and shouted.

The veins on Lin Xing'an's temples were also exposed.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

After looking at Yu Kexin deeply again, he nodded to his mother.

"Don't be afraid, Kexin! Mommy will take you back to the house first."

Mom pulled Yu Kexin back to the bedroom and comforted her.

Dad and grandma followed without saying a word.

Lin Xing'an took this opportunity to quickly establish contact with Yin Hui.

He looked into Xu Zhe's car through the darkness.

Just as he thought, Xu Zhe's expression did not show any surprise.

Instead, there is a feeling that everything is according to plan.

really……

Lin Xing'an closed his eyes.

He understands Xu Zhe.

Although several attempts ended in failure.

But just as Xu Zhe seemed to be certain that there was something wrong with him, Xu Zhe must have been basically certain in his heart that there was something wrong with Yu Kexin.

He even hoped that Yu Kexin would be rescued.

This way, I can cut off my connection with the human side through Yu Kexin...

Lin Xing'an broke away from the gloom.

if it is like this……

Then I can use it in reverse...

There was a gleam in his eyes.

A few minutes later, my mother also came out of the bedroom.

"There should be nothing wrong with this human-animal. It's just that his mental state has collapsed due to his blindness."

"But anyway, she's turning eighteen soon, isn't she?"

"In another week, you will be able to eat it, and it will taste even better."

Lin Xing'an glanced at the date and said.

"Ah."

When it comes to eating, Mom swallowed again. "We'll keep a close eye on her this week. There won't be any problems."

"Okay, good job."

Lin Xing'an also looked towards Yu Kexin's bedroom, but then seemed to have thought of something, "Send Dad and Grandma out for a while, so that this beast will think it has passed the test."

"Another colleague of mine is in the room, observing secretly."

"If there's really no problem, let's end it today."

He said to his mother.

Mom also nodded.

Standing in the living room without moving, as if communicating through brain waves, my father and grandmother also floated out.

Several people waited in front of the bedroom door again.

Lin Xing'an once again used a gloomy tone to poke Yu Kexin's ear lightly as a reminder.

"..."

Fifteen minutes later, Ke Ke appeared out of nowhere at the door of Yu Ke Xin's bedroom. "There's nothing wrong with her performance."

"It's basically certain that he hasn't awakened."

Keke also nodded and said to his mother at the door.

Taking advantage of the gap when Ke Ke came out and before his father and grandmother went in, Lin Xing'an immediately controlled the gloom in front of Yu Ke Xin and silently turned it into a few lines of words.

[That shell is a listening device, be careful]

[You performed very well today. Everything just now was just a temptation from the gluttonous ghost.]

[Hold on for a few more days, we will definitely rescue you]

【must!!!】

The second before Dad and Grandma re-entered the house, Yinhui disappeared in an instant like a phantom.

"..."

Looking at the air in front of her, two lines of tears flowed from the corners of Yu Kexin's eyes.

The three exclamation marks at the end must have been like three shots of cardiac stimulant that pierced Yu Kexin's body!
It cheered her up.

She quickly wiped away her tears and a smile appeared unconsciously on her face.

It turns out that my persistence is meaningful...

I can still survive...

Hope is just around the corner...

Hope is at hand!

"By the way, this human-beast has our eavesdropping equipment around it."

"So you don't have to watch so closely."

"Relax appropriately, and you might get unexpected rewards."

Before leaving, Keke gave a few more instructions.

"Junior, let's go!"

Then she waved to Lin Xing'an.

"How's it going, junior? How's it feeling to be experiencing human and animal head-on for the first time?"

When they arrived at the community yard, Keke was not in a hurry to leave.

Instead, he took advantage of the sunshine and strolled in the garden with Lin Xing'an.

"I feel... so nervous, afraid of missing any details that could confirm this human-beast's awakening."

"And there were so many twists and turns. When I was talking to that beast, seeing his expression, I thought it was a sure thing."

"She went out with me later, but I didn't expect her to..."

Lin Xing'an smiled bitterly and scratched his head.

"This is all normal, junior~"

Keke waved his hand and said, "You'll understand once you meet more people and animals. It's actually quite interesting."

"Senior, now with this human beast... can we be 100% sure that she hasn't awakened? Shouldn't we?"

"impossible."

Keke shook his head.

"Whether it's judging whether a human or animal is awakened or not, there's no such thing as 100% or absolute. There's only close, or infinitely close, awakening."

"This beast... I think it's a 50-50 chance. There's even a high probability that it's awakened. She was just pretending."

"But don't worry about it. If she's pretending, after this test, her spirit is already tense, or she's desperate, and she won't be able to hold on for much longer."

"What's more...she'll be eighteen in a week."

Ke Ke looked at Lin Xing'an and smiled.

"Don't be nervous, junior. It's always like this the first time. You feel like you didn't do it well somewhere."

“But you’re actually pretty great!”

"And don't forget, this is a temporary change in my testing method. You're not prepared at all!"

Ke Ke walked behind Lin Xing'an, stood on tiptoe, pinched Lin Xing'an's shoulders, and spoke encouragingly.

"...Senior, I have another question."

After a moment of silence, Lin Xing'an also took a deep breath.

"What's the problem? Tell me!"

Keke waved his hand!
"That is...if we test it this way, using this kind of rhetoric...wouldn't it accelerate the awakening of humans and animals?"

"What I mean is, this beast is already confused. If I just said all that to him, wouldn't it wake her up?"

"Because 'not revealing your identity to fools, and not actively using means to awaken them' is also a derivative of Mother's three rules, right?"

Lin Xing'an stopped and asked with a frown.

Ke Ke walked to the flower bed and motioned Lin Xingan to sit down.

"Junior, basically everyone has asked you this question."

"And the answer is a clear no."

Koko shook his finger.

"……Why?"

Lin Xing'an asked doubtfully.

"Because confused people are confused people, and awakened people are awakened people."

"It's like putting a rooster in the most comfortable and suitable environment for laying eggs, but it still can't lay eggs."

"You can put a hen in the most extreme conditions and it will still lay eggs."

"Because a rooster is a rooster and a hen is a hen."

Koko said, holding up two fingers.

But the doubt on Lin Xing'an's face did not disappear.

"Junior, in other words, it's time for the humans and animals to wake up."

"Even if it lives in a normal environment without any gluttons around, it will definitely awaken."

"People and animals that shouldn't awaken will never awaken no matter what."

"Even if someone told him he was in the Chicken Coop World, or even if a gluttonous ghost revealed its true form in front of him, he would just treat it as a dream."

"Of course, these two examples are a bit extreme, but that's the point. Do you understand?"

Koko asked, blinking.

Lin Xing'an also pursed his lips and nodded slowly.

"If that's the case... Senior, why don't we just reveal our true identities in front of humans and animals?"

"Anyway, if this human-beast is destined to be confused, he won't be able to wake up even if he sees it."

"If they are destined to awaken, we can awaken them in advance and nip them in the bud."

Lin Xing'an looked up and asked.

Ke Ke's eyes widened in shock, and he quickly covered Lin Xing'an's mouth, "Shhhhh! Junior, you can't say that!"

"This was the idea of some dictatorial glutton on the ancient committee."

"At the beginning of each round, after the humans and animals were released, he immediately forcibly captured them all. Using the method you mentioned, he was able to identify all the confused people and awakened ones within a week."

"This made Mother very, very angry."

Koko whispered.

Lin Xing'an's face also turned pale and he took a breath of cold air.

I didn't expect that my mother would be involved...

"Junior, although the Awakened are destined to be Awakened, what Mother wants to see is that they awaken at different times."

"We absolutely cannot interfere. We must understand what Mother means."

Keke raised the hand that was covering Lin Xing'an's mouth.

Lin Xing'an also nodded repeatedly.

"But Senior, there is another situation. There is a human-beast that is destined to awaken, but it is suspected before it awakens."

"Then we go and test it, just like I did just now, and it awakens. What should we do?"

he asked again.

"This means that this human-beast was meant to awaken at this time. It was all destined."

"After all... the reason we went to test him was because he was the one who was suspected first."

Koko said with a smile.

"...Is that so...I see."

Lin Xing'an took a deep breath.

Then his expression froze.

He felt that in the milk tea shop opposite the new campus of North City University, a cat knocked over the sign of today's discount.

This is the cat's signal to contact him...
