Chapter 756
"Don't go."
He turned his head; the girl looked at him so indifferently, her eyes utterly hollow, and even her tone of voice was so cold.
"Why?"
Lin Yi asked in confusion, but even if he wanted to move, the girl held his clothes tightly, refusing to let him leave.
Seeing the girl's state, he could only give up and sit down.
And even while seated, the girl still tugged at his clothes, as if afraid that the moment she let go, he would walk away.
Lin Yi helplessly sighed, turned his head, and spoke to the girl.
"You are acting far too strangely today; if it were the usual you, no matter what I did, you wouldn't care."
Hearing these words, the girl gave no reaction at all, and instead continued to hold his clothes tightly.
Lin Yi raised his gaze toward the door of the workroom and found that the door was slowly swaying, which was rather terrifying.
This door, he clearly remembered was closed properly.
Every time he came out, he would remember to close the door.
How was it that this time, the door was open?
Thinking this, Lin Yi suddenly felt a bit terrified.
And just then, Did Ning Chen, half-asleep, walked out of the room, rubbing his eyes as he went.
The workroom was next to his room; just as Did Ning Chen stepped out of his door, he glanced sideways and noticed the situation with the door nearby.
Without meaning to, he caught a glimpse that there was someone inside the workroom.
He pretended not to notice and looked at Lin Yi in the living room.
Seeing that he was having his clothes held tightly by the girl, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Just as Did Ning Chen passed the workroom, the shadow inside the room vanished.
"Boy, is there something in my workroom?"
Did Ning Chen came down, and Lin Yi couldn't help but ask directly.
Hearing Lin Yi's words, Did Ning Chen shook his head.
At this moment, the girl also let go of her hand.
Seeing the girl let go of him, Lin Yi stood up, wore a look of confusion, and walked upstairs.
Just as he went upstairs, both Did Ning Chen and the girl were watching him.
As Lin Yi walked, he turned back, noticed the look in both their eyes, and his whole body went numb.
"Can you two stop looking at me like that?"
He said silently, and neither of them paid any attention to his words.
Seeing the two of them, Lin Yi walked into the workroom.
As soon as he entered the room, Lin Yi saw that the window in the room was open.
He sighed helplessly, "I clearly remember this window was closed."
Thinking this, Lin Yi silently walked over and closed the window.
Looking at the closed window, Lin Yi suddenly noticed there was dust on the windowsill.
He wiped the dust on it and remained silent for quite a while.
So, someone had been here?
After hesitating for a moment, he closed the door and went downstairs.
Seeing the two sitting in the living room, Lin Yi hesitated, sat beside Did Ning Chen, and asked.
"Boy, do you know something?"
Hearing Lin Yi's question, Did Ning Chen silently drank the tea in front of him and raised an eyebrow.
Seeing Did Ning Chen's expression, Lin Yi became even more suspicious; this boy must know something.
He stood up and patted Did Ning Chen's shoulder.
"Boy, I'm going out for a while; stay home and wait for me properly."
666. Still got involved (13)
Hearing that Lin Yi was going out, Did Ning Chen stood up and followed behind him.
"You want to come with me?"
Lin Yi looked at Did Ning Chen very confusedly, while Did Ning Chen nodded, confirming that he intended to go out with Lin Yi.
Seeing Did Ning Chen's expression, he sighed.
"Me..."
Before he could finish speaking, a series of knocks suddenly sounded from outside the door.
Lin Yi turned around alertly and looked at Did Ning Chen.
"You boy, hide; someone knocking at this hour might be from Ye Lisi's side."
Hearing these words, Did Ning Chen stood up and hid with the girl.
"Coming, coming."
Hearing the knocking become more and more urgent, Lin Yi hurriedly called out.
And just as Gangtuikai Sect opened the door, several figures in black robes came into view.
They did not enter; instead, they said.
"Tonight there is a sacrifice for my lord Ye Lisi; everyone must come."
After speaking, this group of black-robed figures turned and left the doorway.
Hearing these words, Lin Yi became somewhat bewildered.
Turning, he closed the door, returned inside the house, and looked at Ning Chen, saying.
"They say there is a Ye Lisi sacrifice tonight; everyone from Sato must attend, it is mandatory."
Hearing this, Ning Chen frowned.
He did not even know that Sato had this sacrifice.
"The sacrifice of Sato, you had better go see it."
The system's reminder voice suddenly rang out.
And right after the system finished speaking, Lin Yi said.
"For tonight's sacrifice, I must go."
Hearing that Lin Yi was going, Ning Chen nodded, agreeing and saying.
"Then let us go together."
Lin Yi looked at Ning Chen with slight shock. "Tonight it is all black-clothed people; if you go, are you not just seeking death?"
As the words fell, Ning Chen silently shook his head.
He put on a hat, hands in his pockets, and leaned against a nearby wall.
"When do we leave?"
Lin Yi sighed helplessly.
"A bit later; the time is still ample now."
Lin Yi looked at the time on his phone.
There had been a sacrifice before, but that was years ago; why today, of all days, must the sacrifice be held?
Moreover, it was without any prior notice.
Thinking this, Lin Yi sat down, holding the cup of water he was drinking. "Kid, don't you think this sacrifice is strange?"
Speaking, Lin Yi looked over at Ning Chen.
And Ning Chen was at that moment leaning against the doorframe, eyes lowered, wondering what he did not know.
Lin Yi set the water cup down. "Kid, I still hope you do not follow me."
Ning Chen did not agree with this statement; he said nothing.
When the time arrived, just as Lin Yi was about to walk out the door, Ning Chen, wearing his hat, simply followed behind him.
Seeing Ning Chen's appearance, Lin Yi knew he could not dissuade him; he could only let Ning Chen follow him along.
The two had just walked out the doorway when two or three black-robed people walked straight toward them.
And in their hands, they were also holding black robes.
