Before anyone knew it, she was already standing behind Lin Yan.
The door wasn't opened; she didn't break down the door, and Lin Yan didn't see her walk through the wall.
It was as if someone had pressed fast forward; one second she was in the hallway, and the next second she was in his house.
The girl stood barefoot on the floor, her white coat hanging loosely on her thin shoulders.
She stared curiously at the pile of frog balloons by the door.
"Are these balloons prepared for me?"
She asked again, her soft, gentle voice easily putting people at ease.
Lin Yan glanced at the balloon in his hand that he hadn't thrown yet, then glanced at her.
Space travel?
Teleport?
Or did the door open too quickly, making it appear as if it wasn't open at all?
He didn't know, but he was very clear that if the girl had been hostile towards him just now, he wouldn't even have had the chance to reveal his hand now.
"You like balloons?" Lin Yan asked tentatively, going along with the conversation.
The girl tilted her head, walked to the door, and picked up a balloon.
This time, Lin Yan saw clearly that she had indeed walked over.
She curiously fiddled with the frog balloons on the ground, while Lin Yan watched in horror.
Keep in mind, this is an upgraded Demon-level rule item.
Although it's not as powerful as Saya's authority, it's still Lin Yan's most reliable trump card at the moment.
Even if that cult bishop were to get even a little bit of it, he would be forcibly possessed immediately.
The rules for judging the frog brooch only consider mental strength, and even a demon-level monster can be caught off guard.
But the girl poked and prodded the balloons as if they were real balloons being sold by roadside frog babies, posing no threat whatsoever.
The soul of Ah Feng sealed inside the balloon, when touched, not only failed to trigger the rules, but seemed to be suppressed by something.
The surfaces of those balloons were now slightly deformed, as if they were trembling.
"The smiley faces on these balloons are so ugly."
The girl seemed to have had enough fun, tilting her head to look at Lin Yan, her pale face showing some confusion.
"So cute..." Lin Yan couldn't help but exclaim softly. It's obviously not human, yet it's so good at acting cute. It's really annoying.
The girl pointed to the balloon and said:
"I don't know, but it feels familiar."
"It's crying, there's something very noisy crying inside."
Lin Yan was startled.
Ah Feng's soul was imprisoned in the brooch. Although Chen Shu didn't say it, he could imagine that Ah Feng's life must not be easy.
So when she said Ah Feng was crying, Lin Yan believed her.
But the girl simply played with the balloons and intuitively saw through the demon-level rule item.
Is this the perception that the container once held when an evil god descended?
Lin Yan calmly put the balloons back into the frog brooch.
He was now 100% certain that letting this girl into the house would be like inviting a wolf into the house.
Since things had come to this, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue acting in the other person's manner.
"Yes, it is quite ugly. I'll throw it away another day."
Lin Yan forced a smile and tentatively asked:
"You just... came in like that?"
The girl tilted her head again, somewhat puzzled by Lin Yan's question.
"Huh? Shouldn't we just walk in?"
She looked at the security door, then looked down at her feet.
"I just wanted to come here, and here I am."
No sooner had she finished speaking than her stomach let out a loud "groove" at an inopportune moment.
Lin Yan asked instinctively, "Are you hungry?"
After asking the question, Lin Yan himself was stunned for a moment.
Hungry?
How could a person who has been resurrected from the dead feel hungry?
"Gurgle."
The girl's stomach started to protest again.
She lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, tucking her hands into her sleeves like a child who had done something wrong.
"Alright, stop playing the victim with me." Lin Yan was sharp-tongued, but his actions betrayed his words.
Since we've decided to take this human molt in, let's take it one step at a time.
"You sit on the sofa over there, I'll go get something to eat."
The girl was very obedient and walked obediently to the sofa, but instead of sitting down, she stood to the side with her hands clasped together.
Lin Yan turned and walked into the kitchen, taking out a bucket of pickled cabbage and beef noodles from the cupboard.
Pour in hot water, add instant noodles, and you're done in three minutes.
He really had no mood for, nor dared to, prepare a lavish dinner for this monster.
When Lin Yan carried the instant noodles back to the living room, he glanced at his phone, which was placed under the coffee table.
That was the medium Chu Chu used most often at his home.
Since the girl came in, Chu Chu seemed to have disappeared, showing no reaction whatsoever.
Clearly, this human transformation not only frightened the bizarre AI voice actor, but even the cyber vengeful spirit Chu Chu dared not show her face in front of her.
Lin Yan placed the instant noodles on the coffee table.
"Eat."
When the girl smelled the fragrance, a glimmer of light finally appeared in her eyes, and at that moment Lin Yan felt that she had a slight human scent.
She walked over, picked up the instant noodle bucket, and grabbed a handful of noodles, stuffing them into her mouth.
"Slurp, slurp."
She ate very slowly, and even when she ate with her hands, her movements looked somewhat clumsy.
The soup dripped down the corner of her mouth, but she didn't notice.
Lin Yan sat on the single sofa opposite her, her hands crossed in front of her. She looked relaxed on the surface, but her whole body was tense.
"Do you still remember your name?" Lin Yan asked.
The girl paused for a moment while eating the noodles with her hands.
She swallowed the noodles in her mouth, closed her eyes, and her brows furrowed deeper and deeper, as if she were recalling some painful memory.
"name……"
She covered her head with her hands, which were covered in instant noodle soup, making Lin Yan's scalp tingle.
"I don't know, it hurts so much! Ouch! It hurts so much!"
The girl began to tremble, and gradually, a ring of black ripples appeared on her body, just like what Lin Yan had seen in the air-raid shelter that night.
"Stop thinking about it!" Lin Yan quickly interrupted her, seeing that things were not going well.
If this ancestor were to explode here, he would probably be forced to be buried with him.
Lin Yan immediately put on his usual smiling face, and his voice became deep and gentle as he said:
"Never mind if you can't remember."
"Since it was me who stabbed you... uh, since you came here specifically to find me, I'll give you a new name."
The image of the girl's tragic state at the air-raid shelter altar flashed through his mind.
"Then you can be called A-Jiu," Lin Yan blurted out.
The girl froze, then looked up at him.
"Why Ah Jiu?"
"Because you're lucky." Lin Yan smiled, half-jokingly.
"Others only have one life, but you can come back to life even after you die, just like a cat with nine lives."
"Calling him Ajiu is for good luck."
"A-Jiu?"
"Ah Jiu".
The girl blankly repeated the name.
Every time she repeated it, Lin Yan would wonder if she had triggered some of her self-destruct conditions again.
Fortunately, she didn't investigate further and continued eating the soggy instant noodles.
