When the male protagonist of the invincible novel meets the overbearing president
Chapter 204: Useless effort?
The Saint's residence was like a towering tower with gorgeous decorations. There were many rooms here, a hundred meters high, and more than thirty floors. Diana only lived in the room on the bottom floor. If Lu Yanxu wanted to explore here, he had to walk through the entire tower.
Looking at the towering building and the rooms that were still lit up everywhere even in the middle of the night, he felt a little overwhelmed.
'Luckily I can stay here for a week, otherwise there would be at least a hundred rooms, and I would not be able to explore them all in one night.'
The faceless wooden man was responsible for vigilance. There was only the Saint's family in the entire tower, and he could not insert his own puppet. Therefore, he was the only one who could carry out the exploration mission.
Alas, sighing and complaining could not solve the problem, so Lu Yanxu could only roll up his sleeves and do it himself.
It was obvious that he had gained nothing from the entire evening.
Each room is decorated very delicately and in different styles, just like a large showroom, with every style available, it just depends on whether you want it or not~
"Ah..." Lu Yanxu lay weakly on the cute big bed which was in line with the personality of Diana, a sweet girl. He closed his sore eyes and sighed helplessly.
"In the end, I still found nothing~" Faceless Wooden Man was also a little discouraged. This matter was too boring.
"My friend, it is precisely because of boredom that Diana's bravery and perseverance are reflected!"
“Oh~” Faceless Wood jumped up immediately as if he had been enlightened. “I think you are right, my friend. Oh, I mean, what you said is absolutely right!!”
"I have personally experienced such boredom. The lovely Diana girl was able to endure such boredom in order to save the residents of the town where she lives! This is really great! I like this setting!"
"As long as you like it..." Lu Yanxu watched him writing and drawing excitedly, it seemed that he was working on his new script. Finally getting rid of the nagging guy, Lu Yanxu also had the mind to think about what he had gained tonight.
It seemed that nothing was found, but in fact the dazzling array of decorated rooms also explained something.
The saint's parents lived on the tenth floor and above, and he guessed that the saint should be on the top floor. There were also some signs of life in those rooms, and it was obvious that the saint slept in every room like she was choosing clothes.
But what puzzled Lu Yanxu was why she did such a boring thing? Was it really because she liked rooms with different decorations?
Of course, this is possible. People's thinking is not the same as others', not to mention that this saint is probably not mentally normal.
He glanced at the empty bowl on the table next to him, which was filled with medicine for his so-called strange disease. He used his imagination to confuse the servant's senses and replaced the medicine with ordinary soup.
It's almost dawn now, and he has to quickly identify what this medicine is.
He took out the medicine that had been swapped and sniffed it. It was not the bitter taste of medicine that he remembered, but a sweet taste that was even more sickening. This sweet smell that could make people choke almost dried his nose.
"***!!" Lu Yanxu couldn't hold back and said something sweet. Even the faceless wooden man who was concentrating on writing the script was attracted.
"What's the matter, friend?"
Lu Yanxu didn't want to talk, he was a little autistic. Pushing the bowl towards the faceless wood, he lay on the bed and thought about it.
"This is... ***!!!" Obviously, the faceless wood couldn't stand the sweetness that was beyond the reach of ordinary creatures. He spoke out the beautiful words he had just learned from Lu Yanxu in a more eloquent way.
Half of a week had passed quickly, and the faceless wooden puppet had covered up the truth very well, and the Saint didn't seem to be the slightest bit abnormal. But Lu Yanxu wasn't sure if she was pretending, so he made two preparations.
But unfortunately, in the past three days, except for the floor where the Saint's family lived, there was nothing abnormal in other places. He even found a new clue: the three rooms closest to the top floor had signs of life.
Lu Yanxu guessed that the Saint was trying to avoid Diana, so she didn't live in a lower floor. Did she sleep in the same place every day? And she cleaned the floor very cleanly after sleeping, to the point where there was almost no dust on the floor.
Despite this, Lu Yanxu's sharp eyes could still see clues.
On the fourth and fifth days, Lu Yanxu carefully explored the remaining rooms and soon discovered a shocking secret.
"Wuwuwu..." The low voices of men and women crying and wailing were transmitted quietly. Lu Yanxu and the faceless wood looked at each other and felt very strange. Logically, this should be where the saint's parents lived, but why were there cries?
Lu Yanxu gave a look, and the faceless wood understood and hid the two people's figures more thoroughly. Approaching the center of the room silently, they saw a surprising scene.
Two dirty men and women were hung high in the air in silver handcuffs, naked, covered in scars and dirt, with faces full of regret and pain. A faint cry for mercy came from their mouths:
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's father's fault. I shouldn't have treated you as a tool to make money. I shouldn't have beaten and scolded you since you were a child..."
"I was wrong, too. I shouldn't have watched you get beaten and not helped you..."
This seemed like a typical case of parents favoring boys over girls. Lu Yanxu pinched his chin.
"What does this mean, friend?" The Faceless Wood was born from all the filthy thoughts of living beings. He had no father or mother, so naturally he didn't know the meaning behind their words.
"Nothing. This father has treated his daughter as a reproductive tool since she was young. Can you understand? This daughter is born as a laborer and can be sold for money when she grows up. Then she will be a beast of burden for her whole life, even worse than a beast of burden."
"Oh~ I think I understand a little bit. So that woman might have grown up in such a family when she was a child!"
"You can guess so."
There was nothing to see. This room was like an extremely dark cage. The solid iron door and iron bars closed the room, making it extremely dark. The only light was the faint moonlight coming in from outside. It was obvious that the light outside was a decoy, just to avoid being abrupt to others.
Suddenly, a sound was heard in the distance. Although it was far away, the two of them were very vigilant and soon discovered that someone was approaching.
Lu Yanxu quickly gave them a look, and the faceless wooden man waved his hat, and the two of them disappeared.
"Alas, it seems that the final boss room can only be explored tomorrow. As expected, don't be lucky. After all, lovers must sleep in the same room every day. That's normal."
"Oh, so you have been doing useless work?"
"No, it's never a wasted effort. If it can be done easily, why should we do the most difficult thing? Even if it takes countless efforts, we still have enough time and confidence to waste."
