Chapter 695: Chapter 695: I invite you
Bai Youwei, clad in heels, strode forward. Clink, clink, clink, clink…
What she originally felt was a cheerful rhythm now only seed noisy, grating on her nerves, and irritating!
The sound seed to deride her, mocking her: her companion t mishap and she only wanted to show off her legs!
These long-awaited legs of hers were, after all, nothing more than re legs.
Her joy was far from being tily.
Taking pleasure in inappropriate tis could turn into a sin.
Bai Youwei suddenly felt bone-tired. She took off her shoes, tossed them into the trash at will, then took the elevator downstairs barefoot, leaving the Headquarters Building.
She walked aimlessly onward.
Passing pedestrians threw her surprised glances, unaware whether they recognized her or noticed her barefoot stroll.
She couldn’t care less.
Having walked barefoot on the hard pavent for a while, with a hidden pain in her soles and cool rainwater trickling down her face, she snapped back to reality on a strange street.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier.
The front desk had indeed reminded her it would rain today.
She started to feel foolish.
If she wanted to calm down, she could’ve just stepped into the Dollhouse, why had she ventured out into the rain?
Moreover, having walked all this distance, why had she wasted her newly recovered legs in such a way?
Bai Youwei took off the golden key around her neck, preparing to open the Dollhouse, when she noticed the sensor bracelet on her wrist.
…Actually, she didn’t necessarily have to go to the Dollhouse.
Bai Youwei pressed the icon for the Resting Hall on her wristband, and with her surroundings changing almost instantly, she arrived at the Resting Hall.
Even though the first battle was still half a month away, there were quite a few players in the Resting Hall.
So of them had just exited the labyrinth, while others were subjects hoping to be recruited by a king.
Having nothing in particular to do, Bai Youwei found a spot to sit and rest, anwhile observing the traits of those who ca out of the labyrinth.
Though that was her plan, her thoughts would uncontrollably wander off, from ti to ti recalling Teacher Cheng’s incident…
Why hadn’t Teacher Cheng recovered? Could the labyrinth’s physical evolution and upgrades not counteract such toxins?
As she pondered, a figure approached her.
What first entered her sight was a pair of black leather shoes, and following up the straight, sharp dress pants…
No need to look up, she knew who it was.
People in the ga and the labyrinth were too busy to dress that way, so the only possibility was… the Rabbit-headed Inspector.
“Madam, do you need help?” the Rabbit-headed Inspector looked at her with a smile, “It seems like you’ve lost your shoes.”
“I don’t, thank you,” Bai Youwei replied coldly.
The Rabbit-headed Inspector still maintained his smile, his eyes landed softly on her knees as he asked, “Having made it out of the labyrinth smoothly, isn’t that worth celebrating? Why can’t I see any joy in you?”
“What does my mood have to do with you?” Bai Youwei knitted her brows, slightly annoyed, she shot him a glance, “Aren’t you inspectors always eager for us all to die?”
“Not at all,” the Rabbit-headed Inspector replied politely, “I’m concerned about every single one of you.”
Bai Youwei smirked a silent, derisive laugh.
The Rabbit-headed Inspector gazed deeply at her and then suddenly suggested, “Maybe a ga could cheer you up. Would you like to play a ga? My treat.”
That was a fresh proposal.
Bai Youwei laughed, “Can a ga be treated to?”
“Of course,” the Inspector said with a smile, “But only in terms of entertainnt, so no reward will be offered, nor any penalty or danger. How about it? Would you like to give it a go? Only if you want to.”
“I do not wish to——” Bai Youwei declined without thinking, “A ga without a reward would just waste my ti.”
The Rabbit-headed Inspector looked slightly helpless, “Alright then… I can personally offer a reward.”
