Kelly looked at Zhou Bai pretending to be relaxed.
"Now my goal has been achieved, thank you for taking me home.
Also, I’m really sorry, I lied to you.”
A person is lying to you and says that she has lied to you before?
For a while, Zhou Bai really didn't know which lie he should expose her first.
He studied the changes in the expression on Kelly's face, and when he saw that she felt a little scared, he suddenly spoke.
"Adam, why are you here?"
Everyone else at the table suddenly stood up from their chairs.
Kelly's eyes widened instantly.
"Can't you see him?
He has always been standing behind you."
Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Kelly's body trembled slightly.
The seven crows and the big yellow dog didn't know what happened, and they all looked at Kelly blankly.
"Adam? Where is Adam?"
Hans, the little tailor, and David all looked around suspiciously, but no one saw Adam.
Kelly sat in her seat without moving, and the expression on her face became a little stiff.
"I know it was my fault first.
If you want to use the same method to deal with me, I accept it."
Only then did the others finally understand.
There was no Adam in the cabin at all, Zhou Bai was just treating others in his own way.
"So when you said there was a woman behind Adam, it was also false, right?"
Kelly nodded silently.
The little tailor smiled and sat back on his seat: "That guy Adam is not a good person at first glance. If you scare him, you are doing a good deed."
There is indeed nothing wrong with scaring Hans, but there is something wrong with being able to scare him so accurately.
"Have you met Adam before?
Or, have you met Adam’s wife before?”
Kelly still nodded: "I've seen both Adam and his wife. But I've only seen Adam outside the window before."
Zhou Bai leaned back on the chair and said nothing quietly, looking at Kelly, waiting for her to continue.
Kelly's eyes fell outside the closed window in front of her, with a solemn expression on her face, as if she had returned to the night she first saw Adam.
"Adam and his wife live in a nearby town, but he rarely goes home.
His wife is a good person.
She helped me many times when I had nothing to eat."
Kelly must have been very young when she left the Black Forest.
It is conceivable that her life at that time must have been very difficult.
Her seven brothers, for the first time, learned about her living conditions alone from her mouth, and their expressions suddenly became a little sad.
"The day it happened, I got two delicious apples and wanted to give her one.
However, when I arrived in front of her house, I saw a man appearing at her house.
And that man was holding an ax stained with blood.
I was so scared at the time.
He took two apples and ran away.
Later, I heard that she had disappeared."
A long time passed, but when Kelly recalled it again, she still trembled all over.
"A few days ago, I saw Adam and I recognized him immediately as the man holding the ax that day.
At first, I just wanted to try him.
I didn’t expect that he really felt guilty.”
Kelly laughed: "It must be him. He killed his wife."
When the little tailor heard this, he slammed the table angrily.
“I’ve been with him for so long, but I didn’t expect him to be such a scumbag.
Don't let me see him again.
If I see him, I will definitely beat him up."
Hans sneered: "Do you still need to beat him? He doesn't know the road, and he doesn't have a map. It's still unclear whether he will live or die."
Although Zhou Bai doesn't like Adam either, he doesn't want Adam to be dead now.
Thinking that he was now missing a teammate, Zhou Bai's heart became heavy again.
Moreover, the remaining members of his team are still focused on destroying a non-existent evil dragon.
This problem is equally difficult.
Kelly and her brothers didn't seem to want to reveal more information.
Zhou Bai still needs to think of another way.
He picked up a wild fruit on the table and took a bite while continuing to look at Kelly.
Kelly had just revealed a secret buried in her heart, and now her face showed an expression of relief.
Seven crows and a big yellow dog were surrounding her.
This moment must be very beautiful for her.
Zhou Bai looked at them, recalling in his mind what he encountered along the way after entering the black forest.
What is the connection between the giant, the Thorn Witch, and the seven crows in the cabin now?
Zhou Bai threw the last bite of wild fruit into his mouth, clapped his hands, and suddenly stood up.
Everyone in the restaurant didn't know what he wanted to do, and they all looked at him with some confusion.
Then, they saw Zhou Bai leave his seat, walk out of the restaurant, and then actually walked towards the door of the cabin.
No? He wants to go out?
"Eh? Where are you going?
It’s almost ten o’clock now, do you want your life?”
Behind Zhou Bai, someone shouted to him.
But he ignored it, didn't explain too much, and just put his hand on the doorknob.
"Are you serious?"
Someone chased me from behind.
With a "click", the doorknob in front of Zhou Bai turned smoothly.
But Zhou Bai's face showed a confused expression.
Can I go out?
This isn't quite right.
In the past, when giants slept at night, they would be chained up.
The Thorn Witch will be trapped in the Devil's Castle after ten o'clock in the evening and cannot get out.
Doesn't this cabin restrict their freedom of movement?
Or did Zhou Bai guess wrong, there is no connection at all between the three?
Zhou Bai took out his mobile phone and looked at the time on it.
At this time, it is 9:58 in the evening, and in two minutes, he will not be able to appear in the wild.
Zhou Bai released the doorknob in front of him and stood by the door, quietly waiting for ten o'clock to arrive.
The little tailor chased after him and was obviously relieved when he saw that Zhou Bai didn't go out.
“Dude, do you want to scare people to death?
Fortunately your brain is not broken yet.
Come on, come back with me quickly."
The little tailor grabbed Zhou Bai and wanted to take him back to the restaurant.
But suddenly he heard Zhou Bai whisper: "Ten..."
"Huh?" the little tailor asked.
"Nine, eight, seven..."
The little tailor felt that Zhou Bai's mind was probably broken.
"Three, two, one."
The time on Zhou Bai's phone jumped to ten o'clock when he finished reciting the last number silently.
And his hand was placed on the doorknob again.
With a "click", Zhou Bai turned the doorknob smoothly again.
Zhou Bai's frown deepened.
At this time, Kelly's scream was heard coming from the restaurant.
