From that day on, Mana and Chen became inseparable.

Although they don't have any special relationship, they have a very intimate behavior. Recently, this behavior has not changed much, but there seems to be more bridges between the two.Externally they are very close, but in fact, the distance between their hearts is getting farther and farther.

Their communication mode has always been plain, and they don't need too much language. In the past, Mana could probably understand what he wanted with Chen's eyes, but now, they are deliberately ignoring each other.

Bystanders knew that even McGee felt that the atmosphere between them was very strange.

The boss battle on the sixth floor of No.20 was relatively easy, and most of the people present were familiar faces.This time, Olivier's guild sent two teams, with the president and Olivier as the forwards, and Tianjing in the rear.When he saw him, Mana nodded to him as a greeting and didn't look at him again. Although he intended to approach Mana, he failed because of the tension of the battle.

The young man who had saved Mana and Chen was also in the raiding team this time. Mana deliberately paid attention to the young man, and chased after him when he got through on the 26th floor, but lost.

Mana always wanted to thank that boy, otherwise she seemed to feel uncomfortable, but she never had the chance.She tried to investigate that boy, unexpectedly that slender boy was very famous.

The young man named Kirito, who is called the fraud sealer, is a solo traveler. Because of his seemingly selfish behavior, many people have pure resentment toward him.

Mana didn't think so, because that person saved him, just like Chen at the beginning, he gave people a very cold impression, but it is an indisputable fact that he saved someone.

Maybe the teenager also has some reason.

After losing Kirito, Mana returned to the team. In order to seize the best residence, Liar and the others would also set foot on the floor as soon as possible.

When going back this time, Mana found something amiss.The problem lies with Chen.

Chen's normal state is that kind of dull, supercilious, and sluggish state, but Chen who stepped on this floor is not in that state.His eyes are very energetic, exuding a deep and sharp light, he seems very excited, although his face is expressionless, his lips are tightly pressed.His hands have been clenched into fists, because he has practiced physical skills, and his current state is in a state where he can make attacks that can inflict precise damage on others at any time.Of course, in the town, you can't hurt people and there are no monsters.The point is what's wrong with Chen.

Mana gently held Chen's clenched fist with both hands, but Chen didn't pay attention to her worried eyes.

Chen shook off her, and walked into a certain alley on his own.

Although Mana was a little puzzled, she still wanted to catch up, and was pulled back by Liar before she stepped out.

"Don't provoke him."

"What's wrong with him?" Even a fool can see that there is something wrong with Chen.

"The environment on this floor is not very good."

Liar frowned and glanced at the sky. The top of his head without a trace of friendly light made people feel depressed, and there was no natural light on this floor.

On the side of the road are all kinds of small workshops, shops and hotels made of blue stone. The eaves of the buildings are closely connected. Under the orange light, they seem to have fantasy beauty and night festival-like excitement, which seems to be cute. the abode of the elves.

The point is that there are very few openings on the periphery of this layer, and it is difficult for sunlight to come in even during the day.Inside, there are many uneven stone mountains extending from the bottom of the upper layer. The hazy light emitted by the huge hexagonal crystal growing on it is the source of light for this layer.

It is simply a paradise for night elves.

There are no huge buildings in the main street named [Lombar]. The houses are all exquisite and lovely. Most girls should like the style of this floor.

What made Chen become abnormal should be this level of darkness.

Liar said that Chen would become terrible in the dark, like a wounded beast, and would be hostile to everything that came close.At the moment, I am afraid that I left alone for their sake.According to Chen's habit of disappearing from time to time, even if you look for it intentionally, it is difficult to find it.

Mana gave up and decided to follow Liar to find a place and pay the accommodation fee as usual to avoid worries.

And the accommodation on this floor is not easy to find, because the buildings are very small, so it is really not easy to find a good accommodation that can accommodate five people together.

In order to save time, Mana first went to the grocery store to buy the things she needed, and asked Liar to help pay the room fee when she found a place to live.

When she came out of the grocery store, her mail box jumped up, and she frowned after tapping it lightly.

The sender was Tianjing, and the main purpose of the email was to ask her to go to a dessert shop in the southwest of the town.

Without thinking too much, Mana replied what she hadn't said in person.

[Sorry, I still have things to deal with, if there is nothing important, please don't bother me. ]

Mana thought that the other party would give up, but she didn't expect Tianjing to be very persistent this time.

The content of the second email she received was [I have something very important to ask you, please come here.About Olivier, in a hurry. ]

After that, no matter what kind of inquiries she replied to, there was no response.This Yuemana didn't want to go, but she couldn't ignore Olivier's situation.

She hesitated for a few minutes, then set out to walk there with the idea that it would be nothing even if she went to have a look.

Her idea is very simple, there will be no harm in the town, even if she is cheated by the courtyard, it is better than really missing Olivier, if something happens to Olivier, she will definitely be in the future My conscience is disturbed because of this miss.

Even if he was really cheated, at most he would just waste a little time talking nonsense with him.

If Mana could know the follow-up development at this time, it should not be so easy.

The dessert shop was easy to find, it was on the edge of the street, and there was no need to go through alleys or anything. She looked up at the blue-gray sign, and after confirming that she had found the right one, she reached out to push the door.

Because it is a stone door, it is a bit heavy. Mana didn't use enough strength at the beginning. When she touched the door for the second time, another hand suddenly appeared to grab her wrist, and then she was pulled to the alley next to her. inside.

The accident happened quite suddenly, and when Mana saw who it was, she couldn't help trembling.

"You..." Why are you here.

Before she finished speaking, Chen interrupted her, because it was easy to guess what she wanted to say.

"Did you bring the transfer crystal?"

Mana nodded, and the next moment, Chen stretched out his hand, and she knew it meant asking her for it.She only thought that Chen was going to use the crystal, so she took out the only transfer crystal on her body without hesitation, and put it in Chen's palm.

She saw that Chen's eyes flickered the moment the crystal was placed on his palm, Chen put the crystal away, and then gently stroked Mana's cheek with his hand.

His eyes carefully fell on Mana's face, very serious and sincere, and his hands gently traced the outline of her face, as if he was stroking some baby.Mana was confused by his behavior, and was about to ask him what was wrong, but at the next moment, she felt as if the world was turned upside down, and the scene in her sight was wobbly, and finally turned upside down.

Chen's movements were not gentle at all, he carried her on his shoulders, not knowing what to do.

"Hey! What are you doing!"

Mana tried to get up from his shoulders, but Chen's arm around her waist was so strong that even if she struggled, she could be pushed back immediately.

Chen carried her to the outskirts of the town, and the buildings gradually became rarer and their styles became more and more strange.

Being carried does not hinder Mana's vision. She has never been obedient, and is always moving around. There is no real harm in the game, and she will not feel pain. She knows that Chen will not hurt her, so instead of It is better to resist than to obey.She never imagined where Chen would take her.

It was a small house in the style of an old brick and tile house, and the yard was surrounded by fences. It seemed to be the kind of house that can be seen everywhere in the countryside. The back of the house is usually used to house some creatures like poultry. of.

The difference of this house is probably that there is a small warehouse made of bricks behind the house. The area is only four square meters, but it can bring great convenience to the players.

Generally, when the player's load exceeds a certain value, they cannot continue to add items, so redundant items that do not want to sell can be placed in the storage items provided by the room, such as cabinets. In such a storage environment, props The durability will not decrease.There are also some houses with their own small warehouses to store props, and this one here is used as a warehouse.

Mana stood in the warehouse in a daze, the roof was within reach of her hand, the space here was really small, there was only a small wooden door, there were no windows, and there were no lights in the room. Only by holding props that can be illuminated can you see the interior.

Of course, she didn't bring lighting props in advance, and she couldn't see anything when she was dragged into the room by Chen. Only the light from the door that was hazier than moonlight could tell that there was nothing in the room.

Why did Chen bring her here?

She tugged at Chen's sleeve beside her, and asked doubtfully.Chen had to bend over if he wanted to stay in this room, and it was really difficult for two people to fit in such a small space.

But what she got was not Chen's response, Chen held her shoulders with both hands and pressed her to sit on the ground.In that pitch-dark environment, she couldn't see anything, and the sudden large movements made her feel very uncomfortable.

"What are you doing!"

Her back was already leaning against the wall, and she felt that Chen was very close to her, and what Chen said seemed to echo in her ears like magic.

"It's you who are disobedient."

When he said this, his tone was very soft, like a whisper between lovers, which made Mana shrink her neck unaccustomed to it.But the next moment, before Mana could react, Chen got up and left the small space.

"..."

When Chen went out, he closed the door, and all of a sudden, the surroundings were really invisible.

"Hey!"

She struggled to get up from the ground, and the surrounding darkness was still there. If it was outside, no matter how dark it was, the system would allow players to see the surrounding scenery. However, in such a fully enclosed room, the system would create a completely dark environment. .No matter how long she stayed, it was impossible for her to see anything.

She stumbled and took a few steps in the direction of the door she had seen before. When she touched something, she groped carefully, hoping to find the handle of the door, but the first thing she touched was the wall.

She didn't know how long she had been groping, but when she felt a different feel, she tried to find the doorknob, which protruded from the plane.When she was able to touch what was suspected to be a doorknob, she felt a sense of fear in her heart.

Can't be screwed.

It was only then that she figured out that Chen had the right to use the room. If the other party set it to be available only to herself, then no one else could use it, no matter whether it was coming in from the outside or going out from the inside...

The surrounding area is completely dark, and there is no sound at all, not even the BGM. The sound insulation of the room in the game is very good. Unless you practice eavesdropping skills, you can't hear it at all in a closed space separated by a wall. the sound of.

She finally realized her situation, she was locked here.

"is that a lie."

She felt that the air around her was extremely cold, she huddled up with her knees in her arms, and sat near the door, leaning against the cold wall helplessly.This kind of private building is indestructible, and she has no way to go out at all.

"why……"
