"Then it depends on who we are deceiving," Xiaolan said. "If it is deceiving those who are not very familiar with us, then they should not believe it easily. If it is deceiving people who are very familiar with us...then
It doesn’t matter anymore, they can tell which one is the real me.”
Yi Yao agreed with Xiaolan's logic, nodded and said with a smile, "You are very confident in your friends."
"Of course," Xiaolan finally felt a little happier when she mentioned her companions, "I have 100% confidence in them."
"Sure enough, you are indeed Xiaolan," Yi Yao said. "Before I actually met you, I had heard many stories about you."
Oh? A lockpicking story?
Although Xiaolan complained silently in her heart, she still leaned towards him honestly, raised her ears and asked, "Really? What are all these stories?"
"I heard... you are somewhat similar to a person from the past," Yi Yao said, "Lao Luo should have told you about this."
It's that person who lives in legend again.
"I've said it before," Xiaolan said quickly, "but Uncle Luo refused to tell me about that person, so now I don't know how I resemble her..."
Xiaolan stared at Yi Yao sincerely, hoping that the crazy hints contained in her tone and eyes could be effectively conveyed to him.
But Yi Yao just responded with a frank expression, tilted her head and said, "Unfortunately, I don't know much about it, but..."
His words suddenly stopped.
"But what?" Xiaolan hated talking half-sentence.
"But..." Yi Yao smiled weakly, "I guess Lao Qiao should know better."
"Qiao Moqin?" Xiaolan understood the reason for the embarrassment in Yi Yao's eyes, "He...why would he understand?"
I always feel...something is strange.
Yi Yao looked at Xiaolan, curled her lips and shrugged, "It's simple, because Lao Qiao is older."
Oh, it feels wrong.
"Is it because of this?" Xiaolan's expression almost lost control, "So...it happened a long time ago?"
Yi Yao nodded.
Xiaolan started to think about it.
Seeing that Xiaolan was silent again, Yi Yao thought for a moment and went around to the back of the coffin to fumble around.
The room was not big, and there was a dark wall behind the coffin. Yi Yao didn't know where he got the inspiration. He stood in front of the wall, tilted his head and frowned. After a while, he stretched out his hand and tapped a few times on the wall.
Down.
There was no echo from the imaginary hollow wall. The wall was solid and there was nothing hidden inside.
Sure enough, I am overthinking it...
Yi Yao sighed and turned around to look elsewhere. However, at the end of his peripheral vision, something with a strange shimmer caught his eye.
Yi Yao turned her head and looked over intently.
But in the corner, there was only darkness.
The faint light just now disappeared.
Yi Yao rubbed her eyes and moved closer again with confusion.
It was the same wall as before, the same ground as before, everything was dark and no light could be seen at all.
Could it be that I am dazzled?
But……
"Uncle Yi, what's wrong with you?" Xiaolan's voice suddenly came, "Did you find anything?"
Yi Yao pointed to the ground and raised her head to look at Xiaolan.
"Strange, I clearly saw it just now..."
His words stopped abruptly.
"What's wrong?" Xiaolan was so frightened by Yi Yao's appearance that she froze in place, stretched her neck and asked, "Uncle Yi, what did you see?"
Yi Yao retracted her hand that was pointing at the ground and pointed at Xiaolan instead.
"Xiaolan...you...your forehead..."
It turned out that the light spot had not disappeared.
It fell on Xiaolan's forehead, right in the middle of Xiaolan's eyebrows.

Xia Hua was walking when she suddenly raised her hand and waved it in front of herself.
Zhou Ye turned his head and looked at Xia Hua, "You...what's wrong with you?..."
"There are bugs," Xia Hua hesitated for a while and then said, "It's okay, let's go."
Zhou Ye nodded, walked a few steps, turned around and asked, "Are you really okay? Your face looks very bad."
"Do I have it?" Xia Hua touched her face.
"The lips are very white," Zhou Ye pointed, "the face is also very white... are you hungry?"
Xia Hua's pupils trembled slightly. She lowered her eyes and raised them again after a few seconds, "Maybe, it doesn't matter, let's go."
Zhou Ye straightened up slightly, trying hard not to lean on the hungry Xia Hua.
The two of them walked a few steps in the darkness that shimmered with psychedelic light. Xia Hua raised her hand and waved again, and then again.
Zhou Ye was so frightened that he stood a little further away and looked at Xia Hua, who was looking around with his eyes wide open.
"There are bugs..." Xia Hua said, making a jumping motion, as if jumping over something, "Didn't you see it?"
"I...I didn't see anything," Zhou Ye looked around in panic, "Is there something wrong with my eyesight? But I..."
Xia Hua stopped what she was doing, turned around, and looked at Zhou Ye with disbelief.
"What...what's wrong?" Zhou Ye shuddered, and instantly felt that his legs were weak, "I am..."
"No, it's not you," Xia Hua had two big beads of sweat rolling down her forehead, "It's... it's me..."
Those two beads of sweat seemed to have taken away the blood from her whole body. In just a moment, Xia Hua turned as pale as a sleeping beauty who had just woken up from an ice cave.
"Is it you?" After Zhou Ye heard this, he quickly came over and held Xia Hua's arm. Even through his clothes, he could feel the coldness of Xia Hua's body, which made him shiver, "Xia Hua, you
What does this mean?"
"I think..." When Xia Hua spoke, she even breathed out white cold air, "It's not good... Zhou Ye, it's not good... we have to leave quickly..."
"Ah? Oh... okay!" Although Zhou Ye was confused, he still agreed and helped Xia Hua walk forward, "Let's go quickly... maybe we can... walk out later...
…”
Zhou Ye tried his best to sound more confident in his tone. Although the effect was average, it was still a comfort after all.
The pace of the two became hurried, and the glare and darkness around them passed by from both sides. Zhou Ye no longer thought about those complicated problems. At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind, which was to escape with Xia Hua.
here.
escape……
I can definitely escape...
In the darkness ahead, light is flickering.
Those lights come from countless boxes filled with liquid. Although they are beautiful, they are fatally dangerous.
Xiahua...I know.
Zhou Ye cursed himself hard.
Xia Hua must have also consumed a lot of that liquid. He actually thought that she was fine. He was really stupid...
Just as Zhou Ye was scolding himself, two figures slowly appeared in front of him.
