Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 137 Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf

Lin Sanjiu, who went back and forth several times between the three fairy tales, finally sighed wearily and lay down on a wooden table.

The wooden table was so hard that even though Emma—Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother—had spread her a thin cushion, she could still feel the boards against her.

Compared with Laila, Emma's life is indeed too poor.In the whole wooden house, there is only one bedroom and reception room, and there is not even an extra bed. The only valuable item is a mirror that is said to be a gift from the king. A translucent mirror that can clearly illuminate people is an extremely rare treasure.

In the dim light reflected by the mirror, Lin Sanjiu turned over a few times, listening to the grandparents and grandchildren talking in a low voice, the anxiety in her heart burned away her drowsiness like a fire net.

It was already night in all three places.

After being dragged by Lila's hand and asked to share a big bed together, Lin Sanjiu was sent by Cinderella's stepmother to the latter's house to share a big haystack with Cinderella.When she opened her eyes from Emma's cabin, she had already completely lost the concept of time.

Since the reference objects are always changing, Lin Sanjiu can't even calculate how long he has been in.

Have Xue Que and the others seen the letter they left behind?Is the way out that Gong Daoyi told me really reliable?And most importantly...how on earth can she leave this dungeon?

So far, although there is an extra person like her, the three fairy tales are still proceeding according to the existing track. If there is any difference, it is probably that Little Red Riding Hood has not met the wolf yet...

Could it be that the breakthrough is here?

But they don't even know the target in this dungeon... Lin Sanjiu sighed heavily.

The room was silent for a while because of this sigh, and then Little Red Riding Hood's soft voice resounded in the dark night: "...do you have any troubles?"

"No, I'm fine." Lin Sanjiu hurriedly replied, feeling Emma's eyes staring at him unblinkingly in the darkness. "It's just that I have to go to a place quickly, so I'm a little impatient..."

Just now when everyone was sharing the cake, Emma had been asking Lin Sanjiu what she said for a long time.Perhaps because of some complicated reasons in the past, she is very defensive, which is quite different from her granddaughter.Even if she didn't find anything wrong with Lin Sanjiu's words, when she went to sleep at night, Emma still chose the side close to Lin Sanjiu, and placed Little Red Riding Hood on the other side of the bed.

Several people exchanged a few words in low voices, and at some point, the background sound of rainwater beating on the window lattice gradually added to the conversation.Looking out of the window, the pattering raindrops are washing the dilapidated hut with faster and stronger momentum.

Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but think of Little Red Riding Hood's words "There are no guests", and subconsciously asked, "Miss Emma, ​​where are you... Uh, this dance? Look at the rain today, it's quite heavy."

Suddenly there was a "pop" in the darkness, and then Little Red Riding Hood yelled in pain, as if Little Red Riding Hood had been hit by her grandmother.

"This child, you talk nonsense..." Emma's voice rarely sounded a little embarrassed, "It was all years ago, because my daughter hardly had any contact with me, so I stopped doing it, Now I just do some handicrafts at home to sell money."

It seems that the other party is also a woman, and there is no sign of looking down on her, and Emma said a little too much.

"However, since she stopped dancing, my daughter has slowly regained contact with me... You see, after she heard that I was unwell, didn't she ask Little Red Riding Hood to bring me a cake?" She sounded like There is also a little relief.

Lin Sanjiu thought about it, and just wanted to ask them if they had seen other "travelers from afar" before, but before they could speak, they were suddenly interrupted by a sudden barking of dogs outside the house—it seemed several times. A big dog was barking hoarsely, barking one after another, and it became one piece. It was getting closer and closer to the hut, and it had already reached the door in a blink of an eye.

The three people in the room sat up suddenly, and rushed to the window in surprise.

Through the heavy rain curtain, all three of them saw several dark dog shadows outside, which were as tall as half a person, barking at the cabin like crazy.

Little Red Riding Hood was the first to get scared, and grabbed Lin Sanjiu with her cold hands, then looked up at grandma again, crying in her voice, "...Wh-whose dog is this? What are they doing? Why are they so scary? ?”

Emma's face was also a little pale: "...This seems to be Evie's dog?"

From what she meant, this man named Evie seemed to be one of the hunters who lived not far away.

Let alone a dog, Lin Sanjiu wouldn't take it too seriously even if there was a demon dog outside—she was about to turn around and open the door when she said "I'll drive them away" in her mouth when she was caught by a man The roar interrupted his thoughts.

"Emma! Are you still alive?"

Emma was stunned for a moment. Although she was a little confused by this question, she panicked and hurriedly answered "Link, I'm here", and she was about to reach out to pull the door while speaking.

Unexpectedly, she just opened the wooden door a crack, and someone slammed it from the outside and pulled the door shut.

Emma's hands were in the air, staring at the wooden door with an ugly expression.

"What are you kidding me about?" She took a breath and shouted out the door in a heavy tone: "My Little Red Riding Hood is here today too, don't scare her, drive the dog away!"

This sentence was spread outside the house, and the man who spoke just now suddenly fell silent, only the sound of dogs barking more and more intensely, still rushing into the eardrum wave after wave, as if they were about to overturn the house.

After a few seconds, another man's voice asked, "... Are you the only two in the room?"

Lin Sanjiu was taken aback, and turned his head slowly, just in time to meet Emma's long, thin eyes.

"...There is another guest." Emma stared out of the window, and Lin Sanjiu saw that her knuckles were turning white while she was holding on to the window sill. "……Why do you ask about this?"

"Evie! Richard! You take the dogs and go out into the yard!"

After the man named Link yelled anxiously just now, he turned his gaze to the wooden house again.

"I found something wrong just now, so I quickly called Evie and Richard over..."

"The rain is so heavy now, and our hounds are still acting so manic, which shows that my guess is right."

"One of the people in your house is a werewolf."
