329, the game of equivalent exchange(1/2)

"Jealousy can make people blind..." Lin Huai put the ax on the ground.

He slowly knelt down and stroked his fingers on the ground.

"Jealousy can make people blind, so," he whispered, raising his hands to cover his eyes.

Just now, he had been holding the ax with one hand. Even if blood spattered on his face, he only wiped it with one hand and didn't feel any difference.

But at this moment, after knowing the answer to the mystery...

He touched the direction of his eyelids with both hands. Unexpectedly, or maybe not surprisingly, what he touched was not the soft eyelids, but...

A pair of cold hands.

A pair of cold hands always covered his eyes and followed him.

Only when he knows the answer to the riddle can he access the answer.

"You are in my eyes." Lin Huai said slowly.

He grabbed the hands backwards, with cold hands and long fingers. When his own arm twisted and touched the other person's arm——

Suddenly he heard a burst of singing.

"You are my eyes-"

"Take me through the changing seasons——"

Lin Huai:……

The corridors on both sides disappeared, and Lin Huai turned around. He saw Chu Tianshu standing in front of him with a smile.

——Still whistling.

Lin Huai:……

"You solved the mystery first?!" Lin Huai asked him in disbelief.

"That's right." Chu Tianshu put the key in his hand and threw it away, "Then I took her place."

Lin Huai:……

"This is unscientific." Lin Huai murmured, "How can you be faster than me..."

Chu Tianshu said: "Although I don't want to admit the adjective 'fast', it's probably because I don't have the habit of pretending to be a weak little girl and killing people all the way."

Lin Huai:……

Well, he admitted that he wasted too much time trying to trick residents into opening the door.

"Then how did you find it?" Lin Huai said.

Chu Tianshu thought for a while and said to him with a smile: "Because I was afraid that I would not be able to solve the mystery when I was walking on the road, so I..."

Lin Huai:……

Chu Tianshu: "I cried anxiously, and then wiped my tears with both hands... Hey! Come back!"

Lin Huaixu was pulled back by Chu Tianshu's hat. Lin Huaixu looked at him, Chu Tianshu shrugged, spread his hands and said: "Your boyfriend is a genius at solving puzzles."

Lin Huai: "Bend down."

Chu Tianshu bent down, and Lin Huai grabbed his collar and kissed him on the mouth.

"She's my girlfriend now." He winked.

Chu Tianshu:......

Chu Tianshu hummed a song and ran away with Lin Huai on his back. Lin Huai lay on his shoulder and asked him: "Where is the witch?"

"Witch?" Chu Tianshu said, "Why are you asking her?"

Lin Huai: "I am very vindictive. I want to take revenge on this guy who forced me to play shameful games."

Chu Tianshu thought for a while and said, "It's nailed on the sewing machine."

Lin Huai: "..."

Chu Tianshu: “I don’t know how many injections we have now…”

The rabbit died and the fox was sad. Lin Huai silently mourned for this unlucky ghost in his heart. He was being carried by Chu Tianshu and suddenly said: "I want to go back to the mirror and see the witch's perspective."

Chu Tianshu looked back at him: "No need."

"Why not? Oh you..."

Lin Huaixu watched Chu Tianshu take out the mirror from an unknown package.

Lin Huai: "You are very poor."

Chu Tianshu raised his head and made a smoking motion: "I'm very good at collecting."

...To be fair, Chu Tianshu was originally handsome, and now this woman's appearance is even more beautiful. Even when she raises her head and pretends to smoke, she looks like a lazy and mysterious beauty.

But his frugality often makes people overlook his beauty.

Lin Huai shut up and stopped talking. He looked at the magic mirror, and what was reflected in the magic mirror was all the scenes in the maze.

Suddenly, he exclaimed: "It seems someone is injured."

Chu Tianshu looked down and saw in the mirror a girl in a black cloak covered in blood, and a woman in a gray skirt holding a blood-stained knife and walking towards her with a smile.

"Oh," Chu Tianshu said lazily, "I'm an old acquaintance."

When the woman in gray was only one step away from the girl in black cloak, the girl in black cloak gritted her teeth and seemed to crush something.

Then, her figure disappeared into the mirror.

"Escaped."

"What old acquaintance?" Lin Huai lay on his shoulder and looked inside, "Which one is the old acquaintance?"

Chu Tianshu said: "It's both."

Lin Huai frowned, and after a while, he suddenly realized: "Oh, it's that..."

Chu Tianshu: "Xia."

Lin Huai: "The profiteer named Xia Yuhe."

Chu Tianshu: "That's Xia Xingye."

Lin Huai shrugged: "I generally don't have very deep memories of these unrelated people, oh, Xia Xingye? It's finally his turn to be plotted by others this time?"

Lin Huai had no sympathy for Xia Xingye. Putting aside Xia Xingye's plot against him when he was in Minghua Middle School, even if they met again in the civilized world, the relationship between him and him would be that of enemies and friends at best. Moreover,

With Xia Xingye's character, when faced with today's situation, even he himself would only say: "I am inferior to others in terms of skills, so I will accept defeat."

And the other person... Lin Huai stared at the woman in gray for a long time, but couldn't find any trace of familiarity on her face.

Lin Huai: "Is this also someone I knew before?"

Chu Tianshu withdrew his eyes from the face of the woman in gray and answered lazily: "Yes."

"Oh," Lin Huai thought, and when he saw Chu Tianshu's expression unwavering, he said, "It seems like this person had a close relationship with me before."

Chu Tianshu: "Yeah."

Lin Huai: "Maybe I had a conflict with you."

Chu Tianshu: "Yeah."

Lin Huai: "Is he my suitor?"

Chu Tianshu:…………

"In a sense," Chu Tianshu said, "but he is a complete pervert."

Lin Huai: "Then I'll be relieved."

Chu Tianshu: "Don't worry... No, why are you worried?"

Lin Huai: "If he is just a pervert, he will definitely not be able to compare with me. But, how did I offend him?"

After Lin Huai said this, he felt something was wrong: "Tsk, forget it, it's normal for me to offend him."

The woman in gray clothes in the mirror pulled out a doll from the other side of the mirror. It turned out that she had been holding invisible threads in her hand - and these threads were also tools to guide her.

Lin Huai watched this scene with interest: "She is a puppet master?"

Chu Tianshu said: "Yes."

"Puppet Master, I'm really interested..." Lin Huai touched his chin, "I really want to know..."

Chu Tianshu glanced at him.

Lin Huai: "I really want to break her joints and see inside to see if they are human joints or ball joints. I heard that some puppet masters can make the puppet become one... Tsk, what's going on with that expression of yours?"

Chu Tianshu shrugged at him, whistled and said, "Now you know how you offended him before."

Lin Huai was still staring at the mirror, studying the direction of the puppeteer's joints. The puppeteer packed up the silk threads in his hands as if he hadn't heard anything.

But the next moment...

The woman in gray clothes in the mirror suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Huai through the mirror!
To be continued...
