Unless another "fight to the death and leave tonight" incident occurs, Chu Yinan can already foresee that after making up, Aunt Liu is very likely to lock him in a dark room and not let him leave the room, completely evolving into a yandere mother.
"Yutang, are you asleep?" Chu Yinan clung to her like an octopus.
Bei Yutang sighed softly and asked, "What's wrong with you now? I was really about to fall asleep but you woke me up. If you have something to say, say it now, or I'll send you to Heinrich's place."
Has Heinrich become a special weapon against me, Chu? Well, that makes sense. If you put Heinrich in that situation, he'll be treated like a blind box. Who knows what kind of beaker awaits him?
Before he could speak, Bei Yutang turned to the side, letting him rest his head on her arm, and looked down at him to see what he was about to say.
Then she saw her little brother habitually bury his face in her armpit to smell, and Bei Yutang tickled his ticklish spot in annoyance.
"I'm asking you to talk about serious matters, but you always try to bury your face in my armpits!"
Chu Yinan became serious and said, "It's just that the semester is over and it's winter break now. I suddenly thought that once the next semester ends, you'll be going to college. Where will you go to study? Rongguang Island or somewhere else?"
"You're thinking about this? You haven't decided on the exact direction yet, but Glory Island and Twin Islands aren't included in the planned locations."
"Ah...? Isn't that going to a very far place? Why are we going so far?" Chu Yinan couldn't hide her emotions and felt a little disappointed.
Bei Yutang gently squeezed his hand, rarely seeing the little guy so downcast. She smiled faintly and said, "Weren't you annoyed that I always dragged you to sleep? You were so eager to go to the attic and have your own bedroom. Well, you'll have one now. When I'm not back, you can sleep in my room."
"I just felt it was cold and I didn't have a warm bed, what a pity!" Chu Yinan stubbornly insisted, then immediately asked the same question: "Why go outside?"
"Of course, you can't always stay in one place during your student years. Go out and see more of the world. Even if you're a homebody at school, living there for a while will give you a unique perspective. Why are you looking at me like that? It's just studying away from home, not settling down there. Besides, transportation is so convenient, it won't take much time to come back on weekends. Why are you worrying about this?"
"Because it doesn't feel the same when they're not around."
"..." Bei Yutang did not deny him. She turned to hug Xiao Chunan and held him like a doll. After yawning, she said sleepily, "It's late, go to sleep."
"Okay, goodnight. I think I should have a goodnight kiss."
Bei Yutang sighed wearily, "Ugh, how did you become so mischievous? Fine, fine, hurry up and kiss me."
Chu Yinan moved up a bit, otherwise his neck wouldn't be long enough to reach it.
Bei Yutang first turned her left cheek and kissed him, but when she realized he wasn't done yet, she turned her right cheek and kissed him again, but it still didn't seem like the end.
Chu Yinan sat up and looked into his sister's beautiful eyes, which shone brightly even in the night. He lowered his head and touched noses with his sister while they were gazing at each other. After a minute of silence, the goodnight ritual came to an end.
"Where did you learn that?" the girl's voice rang out, her tone amused and slightly mocking.
"I'm asleep zzzzz" Chu Yinan snuggled back into Yu Tang's arms and buried her face in her armpit.
----------
The next day, Chu Yinan and her sister slept in late, not waking up until almost eight o'clock.
The two woke up once around 7 a.m., and then asked each other if they planned to get up. After asking each other, they fell asleep again.
However, they weren't the only ones who got up late. After Chu Yinan and her sister finished washing up and went downstairs for breakfast, they found Heinrich and the others in the dining room.
"What a coincidence, you guys slept in too?" Chu Yinan thought for a moment and sat down next to Heinrich, because he was going to ask him something later.
Heinrich explained:
"It wasn't that I slept in late, but I found out that it had snowed heavily all night. Before breakfast, we took a walk together in the nearby manor for more than an hour. I just didn't expect that you and Yutang would only come down to eat breakfast late, after we had already started eating."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yinan glanced out the window. The earth was covered in a blanket of white, as if it were wearing white silk. However, such a description was inaccurate. There was no white silk covering such a large area. It should be called a one-piece white silk.
“That’s right, Yu Tang and I actually thought about going for a walk, but as soon as we opened the window, the cold wind blew in, so we decided to sleep a little longer. Anyway, does Glory Island have any themed escape rooms? I want to take Marissa out to play; it’s always so boring staying in the manor.”
Morgan took a spoonful of porridge and said, "Yes, there is an old castle that has been converted into an adventure room. It will be used as a playground for the children on the island in the future, but that will be at least next year. If Xiao Chunan wants to play, he can go in advance. Just think of it as playing Halloween games in advance, dressing up as ghosts, exploring rooms and such."
Chu Yinan had already heard the news, and he wanted to hear Heinrich's opinion, as well as whether the castle had been renovated.
"Going is no problem. You can go after lunch, or you can eat there. You can see what the chefs at other places are like. Then you can have fun on your own in the afternoon, Xiao Chunan."
Chu Yinan looked at Heinrich suspiciously. The fact that the secret room renovation was handled by the woman's father suggested there was something wrong with it.
Chapter 31 Milk Foam Talisman
Chu Yinan thought there would be some new ways to play in this castle's secret room, so he did a lot of research on his phone beforehand. But when he actually arrived at the venue, he found that all he had to do was give them a space and let them dress up as ghosts and scare each other.
Girls like Marissa and Chun, who are timid, were naturally not meant for adventure. They had already been assigned the role of ghosts, and the maids took care of all the preparations, such as costumes and makeup. All they had to do was have fun.
However, before actually starting to play, Chu Yinan could only wait idly in place, while sending messages to gather intelligence.
[Chu Yinan: Marissa, are you done with your makeup? Which floor are you on? I'll come find you in a bit.]
[Marisa: I'm all ready to get my makeup done, but I don't know where I scared you. The elevator should be taking us up soon, but Sister Yutang and Sister Xuanya have already finished their makeup and left. I saw their elevator go down.]
Go downstairs? Is your dressing room on a higher floor?
But thinking about it this way, the first people I'll run into later are probably Yu Tang and the others.
It's worth mentioning that Aunt Liu and the others also came to play. With Aunt Liu around, Chu Yinan was worried that as soon as he entered the castle, Aunt Liu would chase after him.
[Chu Yinan: If you run into Aunt Liu and the others while you're hiding as a ghost, remember to tell me secretly.]
[Marisa: That wouldn't be good, would it? Spoilers would ruin the fun!]
[Chu Yinan: No, what I mean is, if you see Aunt Liu and the others and don't hide anymore, but instead run straight to grab me, you have to tell me!]
They set up a game rule with Chu Yinan: whoever wins has to make the other grant a request. However, the key to determining who wins and loses is rather vague. It's roughly that if Chu Yinan encounters a ghost without bringing the right props, or gets scared after getting the props, or fails to find the exit hint within the allotted time, then he loses.
In short, there are many ways to lose, but only one way to win, and that's difficult; it's practically an unspoken rule that he has to agree to someone's request.
After looking at the photos for ten minutes, Chu Yinan received a message in the group saying "You can go in".
He stretched, pushed open the castle gate, and cautiously took a few steps inside.
"Speaking of which, isn't this Nasser's mansion? How did it get turned into this? It's terrible. I wonder what's going on with that arrogant senior now. Is she working as a maid somewhere?"
A proud young lady, due to her family's decline, is forced to wear a revealing maid's dress and be at the mercy of others. Despite her disgust, she has no choice but to obey her master's orders... This kind of plot is quite captivating.
Unfortunately, Delia no longer uses that disdainful expression to tease him, and the young lady from the Nasser family doesn't really suit my taste either.
"To his liking" means that he finds it very satisfying when someone like Delia shows a disgusted expression, while he would glare back at the one from the Nasser family who shows that kind of expression.
"The game should start on the second floor, right? There's a yellow talisman here. Is it possible that someone dressed up as a zombie girl and could use this to seal it?"
Chu Yinan put away the talisman paper and then noticed a teddy bear in the corner. After confirming that no one was inside, Chu Yinan's spirit chicken moved and decisively transformed into its larger form. Then, it crawled into the teddy bear costume and wobbled upstairs.
Upon reaching the second floor, one side of the passageway is blocked by tables and rubble, creating a sense of collapse and indicating that one should go to the other corridor.
The renovations were done by AIs, creating a terrifying atmosphere. Spider webs and swaying catkins were everywhere, swaying in the eerie wind that seemed to come from nowhere. There were pools of blackened bloodstains on the ground and walls, and several faceless doll maids stood in the corridor.
This doll is probably just a model prop.
Wearing a mascot costume, Chu Yinan felt invincible.
He walked up to the dolls, unzipped them, reached out and touched them, and exclaimed in surprise:
"Holy crap, this is way too soft! Did they just use an old doll body as a prop?"
Suddenly, he heard a girl sobbing. Someone was sniffling and making "whimpering" sounds, and the voice sounded familiar, seemingly innocent!
Chu Yinan took out a yellow talisman, ready to retaliate at any moment.
At this point, the best strategy would have been to run away, but he was curious about what Chun looked like after she was made up, so he followed the sound.
Pushing open the door, you enter a room filled with coffins. You can hear the whistling of wind from time to time. The floor is covered with joss paper, and you can hear the sound of wooden planks being knocked from inside the coffins.
However, the sniffling sound came from the corner of the room. Chun probably heard the door open and thought it was Xiao Chunan coming to find her. She immediately got up from where she was, but when she saw a tall, moving doll, she was so scared that she fell to the ground with a thud, holding her head and almost bursting into tears.
Chu Yinan was speechless. He had dressed up as a ghost, but was scared by the room's decor.
He took out his phone, imitated Conan by using a voice changer, switched it to Marisa's voice, and said:
"Chun, it's me. Don't cry. Why are you crying here? I heard your voice and came to find you."
The silver-haired girl breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing her best friend's voice, wiped away her tears, and hugged her teddy bear.
"It scared me to death! A zombie was going to jump out of that coffin and scream! It gave me no warning at all!"
Chu Yinan examined Chun's outfit and confirmed that she was indeed a zombie girl.
Her face was made up with blood and tears makeup, but because of her tears, it was smeared into a big mess, which was quite comical. Her clothes were amazing, with the front almost completely open, and two blood-stained talismans hanging down from her shoulders, covering her two plump breasts and her indescribable nipples. It was definitely a milk tea outfit. The defense of her lower body was equally amazing, with only a pair of lace-up panties.
He silently stuck the talisman on Chun's forehead, so that he wouldn't say later that Chun had caught him.
"This is a talisman. If you stick it on your head, you won't be afraid."
"Okay." The silver-haired zombie girl patted her forehead to steady the talisman, not caring why the talisman was stuck on her forehead, as if afraid it would fall off.
After affixing the amulet, Chun finally calmed down and asked curiously:
"Marisa, weren't you upstairs, dressed up as a cat demon ghost? Why did you turn into a teddy bear and run down here?"
"I was just looking for a restroom when I came downstairs and heard your voice. This floor was a bit scary, so I wore a teddy bear costume, which made me feel safe!"
Chun looked on with envy: "That's great, are there still seats inside? I want to go in too, it's a bit scary outside."
Chu Yinan didn't agree, but asked doubtfully, "Won't those two talismans hanging in front of you fall down?"
"No, something was glued to that spot... Ah~ Marissa, don't lift it up so suddenly!"
Chapter 32: They recognized him!
"This girl is really clueless," Chu Yinan thought sincerely. But she couldn't be entirely blamed; she was so frightened by the environment that she didn't think about the details.
For example, how can Marissa, with her height, fit into such a large mascot costume? And why does she have to stick the amulet on her head?
If Chu Yinan were in a pure position, he would never make such a mistake. Besides, Marissa's voice is really difficult to imitate completely.
Chu Yinan, in a high-pitched voice, transformed into a pair of clamps and pointed at the coffin, saying:
"Let's take a look at that coffin. Maybe a beautiful female master with purple hair will pop out."
Chun didn't want to go near that coffin anymore, but she didn't dare stray too far from "Marisa," so she hid behind the teddy bear, hugged her, and said resentfully:
"Where would you find something like that? This isn't a blind box. I've seen it before. It's just a really scary dried-up corpse that screams!"
Chu Yinan knocked on the coffin, and sure enough, the coffin lid suddenly popped open, and a mummified corpse sat up abruptly, shaking its head and howling wildly.
It's no wonder Chun was scared, because the AI sisters had also given the mummified corpse model a layer of corpse stench, making everyone in the room feel a terrifying experience.
Chu Yinan slapped the mummified corpse down with a bear paw, then turned it over and found a wooden awl stuck in its broken buttocks!
"This is probably used to punish a vampire count, right? That's how it's always done in the movies. You stab a wooden spike into his heart, and then you win the battle."
But that shouldn't be the case either; it's just an escape room adventure game, there's no need for real fighting.
Just as he was wondering, the plug on the hole in his buttocks was gone, and a clove of garlic fell out. This was also a prop to ward off vampires.
