Chapter 874 The Last Daily Life 53
The adventurers saw him and Chris together, so when they saw themselves, they would subconsciously associate Chris with them as well, thus there was a high probability that they could buy enough time to escape.
Chris was surprised and asked, "Buying time... What are you going to do alone?"
"Well, there's always a way." Xiaolin smiled coolly, "Besides, it was my fault to involve Chris in this, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Xiao Lin..."
Chris looked slightly touched.
Huihui was leaning on the second-floor window, looking down, and said with some concern: "A lot of people have gathered, probably more than ten people."
"Eh, so many?" Xiao Lin had never expected that there would be so many people. He said with a hint of disdain, "Wow, what? Everyone is blinded by the bounty..."
“Xiaolin, are you going to face it alone?” Huihui thought it was impossible and said, “No matter how you think about it, you are outnumbered.”
"Well, well... there's always a way, right...?"
"really?"
"........."
Xiaolin fell silent.
With so many people around, he really had no way to escape. If he was caught, he might be surrounded by them and unable to move. In fact, if he didn't leave, his mansion would be surrounded by them and no one could get in or out.
"Aha……"
Huihui sighed deeply.
At this time, Chris in the bathroom also said, "Xiao Lin, don't force yourself. Wait a moment, I'll be out soon."
No, the problem now is that even if Chris came out, it would be too late. There were quite a lot of people surrounding the mansion. The moment they saw them, they would be caught in an endless chase, and it would have to last for at least six hours. How could they accept such a thing! ?
“Okay! I’ll leave it to Huihui!”
"……what?"
Hearing what Xiaolin said, Huihui looked at him in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly had something to do with her. Xiaolin put his hands on her slender shoulders and said, "Huihui, I have a task for you. Find a way to stop them!"
“I refuse!” Huihui refused without even thinking. She said forcefully, “Why should I go through this mess on behalf of Xiaolin?!”
Indeed, even Xiaolin felt that it was too much to ask, but now he could only ask her. After all, whether it was Xiaolin or Chris, if they were discovered, it would cause big problems, so the unrelated third party Huihui was the one who needed it the most!
But now Hui Hui is so reluctant...
Xiao Lin thought about it, and then said, "I'm telling you, don't you think Chris is pitiful?"
“That’s true…” Huihui pouted and said, “I sympathize with Chris’s situation, but it was Xiaolin who put Chris in this situation, right? Don’t let others clean up your mess. Don’t you have the courage to find a way to solve the problem yourself?”
If there was a way, I would never ask her for help.
Xiao Lin said firmly, "Who is that great magician who collapses from exhaustion every time he uses explosion magic and always requires me to carry him back?"
“Damn it, how despicable!” Hui Hui was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pouted and said unhappily: “This is something else, right?!”
"Oh ho?"
"That was just goodwill cooperation, a necessary and unattainable ritual to release my supreme magic in the most suitable environment!"
She unexpectedly can speak long and difficult sentences.
Xiao Lin grinned and threatened: "If that's the case, I will just come back next time without caring about you. Even if you are being licked by a giant toad and are about to be eaten, I will not care about you."
"I can't help it. Chris and I are not strangers. I'll help you a little."
Huihui immediately changed her tone.
This guy... As expected, he can't be explained to her. As long as you threaten him a little, he will immediately surrender. But this is just right. I can ask her to lead those guys away.
"That's what she said. That's great, Chris."
He said this to Chris in the bathroom.
I said helplessly: "Well, Xiaolin, what you said just now, are you threatening your companions?"
"But I can't leave Chris. This is my fault." Kobayashi sighed deeply.
Chris was slightly surprised and asked, "Do you think you have any responsibility?"
"Of course." Kobayashi said.
Then, they heard a noise coming from the toilet. Chris opened the door and walked out. As soon as they met, he complained, "Haha... I can't believe you're talking in front of the toilet. You're so rude."
"Is it my fault!?"
Xiaolin pointed at himself.
She obviously wanted to go to the bathroom, and there was no other way, so why was it her fault in the end? However, there was no time to complain to him, because -
“Xiao Lin!” Hui Hui suddenly called out, and said in a serious tone: “Those guys are coming in!?”
"Ah, I get it! Chris, we can complain later, but let's get out of here first."
He grabbed Chris's wrist, then, as the girl panicked slightly, ran to his room and locked the door.
Anyway, this place is locked, so there is no problem for now.
Then, he secretly looked outside from the window of the room and found that there seemed to be quite a lot of people gathered there, probably to prevent anyone from sneaking out of the mansion.
After a while, the noise outside died down, and Chris said in surprise, "Hey, I can't hear any noise outside."
Well, that means...
Then the door was opened, and there was only one person who had the key to his room.
“Let’s go in, Xiaolin.” Huihui pushed open the door and walked in. She sighed helplessly and said, “Really, it’s hard to convince those guys who have only muscles in their heads.”
"…Are you qualified to say that?"
"Did you say anything, Xiaolin?"
"Ah, no, it's nothing."
Being threatened by the little girl with slightly red eyes, Xiao Lin said sincerely that it was nothing, and then asked the question that concerned him most.
"Compared to that, did you help us deal with the guys outside?"
“Well, I said a few words and barely drove them away.” Huihui nodded and said a good thing, but she quickly shook her head and said, “However, they are very suspicious of my words. They are probably still watching from outside.”
They are really a group of people blinded by money. I don’t know how to scold them.
At this time, Huihui gave a suggestion.
"So, how about using explosion magic to blow them all away? Luckily, I haven't used any explosion magic today, so I have plenty of magic power!"
"stop it now."
Xiao Lin stopped the crazy little girl, sighed and said, "Are you going to blow up the house? You should know what will happen if you use it here, right?"
This is telling her to be self-aware.
Huihui said somewhat discouragedly: “I think it’s a good plan…”
"Damn it, I'm helpless!" Xiao Lin gritted his teeth and said, "There's no place to escape in this house. The exit is being watched. What should I do?"
"Well, there's no point in getting anxious. It's already become like this."
"Why is Chris so calm?"
He asked about his confusion. Ever since he was being chased, Chris had been laughing and joking with no sense of crisis at all. He always felt that Xiaolin was just being too enthusiastic.
Chris spread his hands and said with a smile: "Of course, even if I get caught, my wallet won't hurt at all. The only thing that will hurt is Xiaolin's wallet, right?"
"Of course I know that!" Xiao Lin yelled angrily.
"But I'm a thief." Chris pouted his lips in dissatisfaction and said, "It's very humiliating for a thief to be caught by others. So, I won't be lazy in order to escape, don't worry."
"Yes, yes."
Kobayashi thought she always had an indifferent attitude, but he didn't expect that she had this side, even though it was just for the sake of her self-esteem as a thief.
"Well, there's nothing to do now, let's just maintain our strength." Chris simply lay down on Xiaolin's bed, stretched and said, "Take a nap, wake me up if there's anything."
"Eh?"
"Hu-ha-hu-ha-"
Then, while Kobayashi was stunned, Chris fell into a deep sleep and slept very soundly.
Hui Hui was also a little helpless. She glanced at the sleeping Chris and said, "She can fall asleep in this situation. Should I say she is reliable or has a thick nerve?"
"Without a doubt, it's the latter." Xiao Lin said decisively, and at the same time sighed and said: "But it's really useless to be at a loss here. Now is the time to fill my stomach."
"For me, the creamy pasta that Xiaolin made earlier will do. Also, please put the bacon and vegetables in as well."
Huihui said this with a smile.
...You have to eat too.
Even so, Xiaolin still made her portion. After the two of them finished their meal, they also took a short nap. After an unknown amount of time, Chris got up.
"Haaaaaaah... um, good morning, Kobayashi."
"Oh, you slept well."
Xiao Lin also greeted her. He got up a little earlier than the other person. She slept very soundly.
"And then," Chris asked, "did anything happen while I was sleeping?"
"No, nothing special." Xiaolin shook his head and said, "Huihui is helping us keep watch down there. It's pretty quiet."
"That's it."
Chris nodded, seeming to be grateful to Huihui, then looked at him and asked, "Well, nothing is the best, but what should we do next?"
"Yes, the premise is that you must not be caught by anyone and escape within the time limit—" Kobayashi said with veins popping out on his forehead. He clenched his fists and said angrily, "I will find the idiot who spread these nonsense rumors and issued this mission without permission!"
"Who could the criminal be? Any clues?" Chris asked in surprise, "Just now you used an ambiguous expression like 'yes or no'."
"From the current situation, there is only one fool who can do such a thing--" Kobayashi seemed to see through everything, and pointed directly at the ultimate criminal, "Aqua!"
That's right, there is no one else but her, and this idea is becoming more and more deeply rooted. His subconscious mind is telling him that it is this idiot's fault!
"The question is, where did that guy go? If we search the streets without a purpose, we will be caught by the other guys."
That's the problem.
While catching others, you must also prevent yourself from being caught by others.
"In that case, just wait here." Chris said with a smile: "Senior Aqua, you will be back soon, right?"
"That's true..."
"What's wrong? Why do you look so gloomy?"
"We have been here for several hours, but there is no more information about us on the street."
Xiao Lin spread his hands and said this.
And Chris quickly caught on to what he meant and understood what was about to happen.
"Ah, I see. Everyone has started to notice it. The only way we can escape is into this house, right?"
"Originally, we should just wait outside for the time to come, but they are a group of hot-blooded adventurers. They will definitely take the risk and break in even if it's not here, just for the extremely high bounty."
Xiao Lin had already guessed that even if they were charged with trespassing, they would only be held accountable later, and the adventurers above would not care about such things.
Chris wasn't too worried. He waved his hand and said, "Hui Hui has agreed to help us, so there will be no problem. Besides, there is no one in this city who would break into someone else's house. You have never formed a temporary team, so you may not know that everyone is actually a good person."
"Stop talking, Chris!" Xiao Lin interrupted quickly, saying anxiously, "What you just said was a standard flag!"
"Flag?"
"Ah, no, that is to say——"
Once these words were said, others would rush in regardless of anything and look everywhere for Chris, and it was almost 100% certain.
As if in response to his guess, some noisy sounds suddenly came from downstairs.
Chris said nervously, "What, what happened? The sound just now was..."
Immediately afterwards, Huihui broke in.
The little girl was a little flustered, with an anxious look on her face. Before she could catch her breath, she said in a panic, "Oh no, Xiaolin! Those adventurers tempted by money are trying to pry open the door of this mansion!"
"What!?"
"Although the door is locked, it won't last long. It's only a matter of time before it's broken through. Let's escape from here quickly!"
“Ah! Stop talking!”
Xiaolin held his head, he didn't expect that the flag would come true so soon.
Hui Hui urged loudly: "Xiao Lin, hurry up! Hurry up!"
