There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game Chapter 737: 630: Pei Sheng: This Woman is Damn Sweet!
Chapter 737: Chapter 630: Pei Sheng: This Woman is Damn Sweet!
Though Pei Sheng didn’t articulate it, Angela had already keenly perceived his mood.
She imdiately laughed and said, “Forget it, let’s not bother with this matter anymore. It’s been so many days, holding onto it is pointless, I was just voicing a minor complaint just now.”
Perhaps it was Angela’s radiant smile that was so open and honest, Pei Sheng quickly cast aside his thoughts and smiled as well.
He really hadn’t thought much about it.
She probably just amplified her discontent after being brushed by a car, which is understandable. After all, who doesn’t exaggerate a bit when talking behind soone’s back?
However, Pei Sheng’s mood wasn’t as excited and thrilled as it had been that morning.
...
He suddenly felt…
as if this goddess wasn’t that special after all.
While eating his tamarind sauce roasted goose, Pei Sheng scoffed at his own fickle behavior, then arranged the afternoon itinerary to Mingzhu Fun World with Angela.
His enthusiasm had waned, but the pursuit of a beauty must continue.
There was no conflict in that.
…
One could say that a good half of Yangjiang’s highly entertaining spots are concentrated in Mingzhu District.
Mingzhu Fun World is the biggest amusent park in Yangjiang, and today Pei Sheng planned to take Angela to all the couple’s spots, with a boat trip in Yangjiang scheduled for the evening.
After noticing a shift in Pei Sheng’s emotions, Angela promptly ceased her information-gathering efforts for the day, deciding to rebuild the young man’s goodwill toward her first.
She understood that haste makes waste.
The amusent park wasn’t crowded on a weekday.
Therefore, the two of them wholeheartedly played in the park, even developing a sense of tacit understanding.
This developnt loosened the slight awkwardness Pei Sheng felt during lunch, his mood becoming livelier, and as he looked at Angela again, she seed ever more heart-racingly attractive, no matter how he looked at her.
He felt he must have been struck by so sort of love spell, or bewitched by a witch.
This woman was damnably sweet!
During their break.
Angela volunteered to buy him a soda, then allowed Pei Sheng, who had courageously joined her on the Ferris wheel six tis, to rest on a bench.
Even if it seed as though the roles were reversed, Pei Sheng genuinely couldn’t stand up. He did not consider himself to have a fear of scream-inducing rides, but riding the Ferris wheel six tis in a row was indeed terrifying!
What was even scarier was that Angela seed unbothered, and even had the strength to carry the dizzy Pei Sheng to the rest area.
Angela seed particularly fond of the number “six,” insisting on experiencing each amusent ride six tis, like an intrigued little girl.
While such a goddess was adorable, she was also really difficult to handle.
Especially when the goddess lifted him up.
Pei Sheng: “…”
He sighed deeply and slumped in the rest chair, staring at the sky where the clouds were drifting, but to his eyes, the clouds were spinning too.
Dizzy, truly dizzy.
After several attempts to concentrate, Pei Sheng managed to successfully focus his gaze.
Right at that mont, his brain suddenly throbbed with pain, and the intensity of this throbbing steadily increased.
Was this a side effect of riding the Ferris wheel too much?
Frowning, Pei Sheng straightened his slouched posture, pressing his fingers against his head at the painful spot, trying to ease it, but the sharp pain seed to be emanating from deep within his brain.
Moreover, his brain, which had barely recovered, beca dizzy again, and in a daze, he seed to hear countless loud, piercing voices echoing in his mind.
He subconsciously wanted to listen to those voices, but the more he listened, the dizzier he got, the more his thoughts beca muddled.
His consciousness was like duckweed in the tide, floating and sinking with the waves.
“Drip…”
Suddenly, a crisp sound of a water droplet rang out.
The groggy Pei Sheng instantly beca alert!
He abruptly felt as if a bucket of ice-cold water had been splashed on him; he instantly snapped awake, with his vision shifting from murky darkness to blue sky and white clouds.
Pei Sheng gazed blankly at the sky.
He was still in the sa position, his head leaning on the back of the chair, looking up at the sky, and he hadn’t taken the step to sit up and rub his head as he thought he had.
So, had he just fainted and fallen asleep, then had a dream?
But he couldn’t recall what the dream was about.
Pei Sheng’s befuddled mind went blank as he sat motionless on the bench, in the process of rebooting his confounded brain.
He didn’t look down and hence did not notice that the brocade pouch in his pocket was faintly glowing; the talisman inside had already dissipated into specks of light.
…
At the sa mont.
Angela, who was selecting soda flavors in the store, paused abruptly; her previously relaxed and comfortable deanor suddenly turned sharp, as she quickly looked toward the direction of the rest area.
Her fox-like eyes narrowed slightly, and her pupils flashed a golden-red glow, giving off traces of danger.
“Beauty, have you decided yet? Don’t keep my freezer door open all the ti.”
At that mont, the shop owner’s voice ca through.
The shop owner had been very patient before, after all, she was a beautiful goddess pleasing to the eyes. He wouldn’t mind even if she used his freezer like an air conditioner!
But now, his face showed impatience, and his gaze at the beauty even held so naked covetousness and malice.
Angela withdrew her gaze and glanced indifferently at the owner.
The previously inappropriate look on his face instantly stiffened, and then his eyes beca dull.
Within a mont, his mood shifted, and when he ca to, it was as if nothing had happened, as he only asked, “Beauty, have you made your choice?”
Angela closed the freezer and held up two bottles of soda with a smile, “I’ve made my choice.”
She paid and left under the reluctant gaze of the shop owner.
But when she returned to the rest area, Pei Sheng was no longer on the bench where he had been before.
Angela looked around and only after she walked around the decorative pillars of the rest area, did she find the daring boy squatting beside the sewer manhole cover.
Behind the rest area was a lawn, and the drainage ditch was installed along the grass. A foul sll wafted from the steel grating of the gutter.
“What are you doing?”
Angela walked over with a frown.
Pei Sheng looked up at her when he heard the sound, then stood up and said, “I slled a stench just now, it felt like there was a corpse in the sewer… uh… a dead rat?”
Mid-sentence, Pei Sheng changed his wording to be considerate of the lady’s sensibilities.
Although he still thought the rotten sll was like that of an overripe corpse, otherwise he would not have been curious enough to co over and take a careful sniff. It was so bad he was even thinking of calling the police.
Upon hearing this, Angela pretended to be surprised, “It must be a dead rat. By the way, do you still feel dizzy?”
As she spoke, she handed over the soda.
“Thank you, the dizziness is gone.”
Pei Sheng said, accepting the soda with so embarrassnt.
He had felt clear-headed after waking from the dream, it was only his mind that hadn’t fully recovered; the persistent stench was what had jolted him back to reality.
In fact, Pei Sheng still hadn’t found the source of the stench. His suspicion of the sewer being blocked was the sole reason he ca to check it out.
And the more he sniffed, the more it seed like a corpse.
Angela delicately covered her nose and said with a furrowed brow, “This place really does stink. Let’s leave quickly and have soone from the park co and check it out.”
Pei Sheng nodded, “Sounds good.”
He looked in the direction of the park’s service desk and took the lead toward it.
Angela followed behind. Her gaze swept over the rest area and then fell on a few amusent rides not far away.
It wasn’t the sewer, but sowhere else.
The Abyssal aura wasn’t obvious yet.
Just now, it was probably the sensing of a weak living being that caused the lurking Abyss to erge. The boy wasn’t devoured, probably because he had sothing on him that protected his spiritual consciousness.
Angela withdrew her scrutinizing gaze and took out her phone to send a ssage to Luofu.
Her power was too destructive to use in this small world; even the slight outflow of Qi she accidentally released just now had affected living beings.
What was more important, she was here to stir up trouble.
So, saving the world was better left to Los. anwhile, it could also give Los sothing troubleso to deal with, thus preventing him from trying to capture her every day.
