Chapter 63 - The Murder Game
Translator: Yuzu — This arc is called The Murder Game
“Knock, knock.” There was a knock on the door.
“Anyone? Is there anyone here?” A woman’s voice called out.
Xiao Chen shuddered as he opened his eyes and sat up with a perplexed expression.
At this moment, he was lying in an unfamiliar room. The room was decorated in a western gothic style. The room doesn’t even have a lamp, and there were only a few candles of varying lengths burning by the bed, emitting a weak light.
Where is this?
Xiao Chen clenched his hand on his chest to hide his panic.
It’s so dark.
He curled up in a ball, covered his body with the quilt, and hid his head, tears welling up in his eyes.
“Is anyone there?” The woman’s voice sounded again.
Xiao Chen’s eyes lit up, his head peeked out from the blanket, and he immediately got up. Before he could walk off the bed, he frowned again. His expression was very aggrieved.
How come there are no shoes.
His white feet were striking when he stepped on the floor. Because he was very slender, he was like a porcelain doll when the glowing candlelight shone on him.
Xiao Chen was wearing clothes that did not match his body size at all. It was a set of cream pajamas, giving the illusion of a child who stole adults’ clothes.
He picked up the bedside candle and moved cautiously towards the door with his muscles tense.
Fortunately, the floor was covered with a rug.
Xiao Chen couldn’t help but think this in his head.
Xiao Chen pushed the door with his hand, trying to open it.
It didn’t work; maybe it because his strength was too low.
Xiao Chen grumbled and pushed again.
“Is there anyone? Is there anyone here?” The woman is still shouting, but the sound is getting farther and farther away as if the person is slowly leaving the area.
Seeing that the person is getting farther away, Xiao Chen instantly shouted with red eyes, “I’m here! I’m here!”
While shouting, his hand also pounded on the door.
Maybe he was so distressed that his tears also fell uncontrollably.
He was unsure if it was an illusion, but Xiao Chen seemed to hear a man’s sigh. The voice was gentle, seemingly helpless, and somewhat doting.
The next second, the door opened automatically.
Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and his tears also stopped, but he looked very delicate.
The woman should have heard his shout. Xiao Chen pushed open the door and clearly heard two footsteps of varying pace slowly approaching in this direction.
Xiao Chen swallowed and held the candle with some fear, and his other hand was glued to the door.
Perhaps it is because of the light that the footsteps quickly moved over to his position.
It was a man and a woman.
The man wore a black suit and looked like a young celebrity.
The woman had curly hair, exquisite makeup and was wearing high heels with a short skirt. The corners of her mouth held a smile, and there was an indescribable look in her eyes that carried deep emotion.
While Xiao Chen was sizing up the two, the two were also looking up and down at Xiao Chen.
“Child, tell sister, where is this place?” The woman gave a light laugh, breaking the eerie silence of the three.
It’s no wonder the woman called Xiao Chen child. Xiao Chen had a small frame and was white and tender-looking. He looked like he was just 16 or 17 years old.
Xiao Chen’s two feet moved around with restraint. He shook his head timidly and said fearfully, “I don’t know, I just woke up here after a nap!”
The woman’s expression remained unchanged. It was not clear whether she believed him or not, but she continued to ask, “So how old are you now, and where is your home?”
Xiao Chen was a little afraid as his intuition told him that the woman in front of him was a bit dangerous. However, he still answered honestly, “I’m twenty years old and a college student. Before I woke up, I was reading in the school library.
Xiao Chen’s voice got smaller and smaller, and his expression had a kind of dream-like distortion.
The woman did not speak, and the three just continue to stand still.
The man glanced at Xiao Chen and said indifferently, “All right, you follow us now, and we’ll continue to see if there are others here.”
After speaking, the two turned around and walked forward without looking back, not caring about Xiao Chen behind them.
But those two people do not seem to be acquaintances as there was always a distance between them, and they also look guarded.
Xiao Chen paused, looked at his feet, and wrinkled into a bitter face. He also did not dare to make any requests and could only follow them with eyes wide open.
“Heh.” Xiao Chen seemed to hear another man’s cold laugh.
Xiao Chen turned his head around, thinking that he had heard wrong.
A gust of wind blew, and the woman in front touched her arm, feeling a little cold.
But it was strange that even if Xiao Chen’s feet were on the floor and his pajamas were thin, he didn’t feel the slightest bit of coldness and was even a little warm.
Xiao Chen surveyed the surroundings.
The whole house is gothic style, very dark and vintage. Numerous oil paintings hung on the walls, but even the paintings were basically black and white and gray in tone. There were also some animal-like sculptures nailed to the walls.
The reason why it is just similar to animals is because those sculptures were either missing a leg or had no head, which was very strange to see.
Xiao Chen is very timid, and his heart kept beating hard when he saw these things in front of him.
“There is someone.” The man suddenly announced.
Xiao Chen froze, then heard the sound of footsteps.
The woman instantly looked with a wary expression.
“Hey, who are you guys?” It was an old uncle who looked as if he was 40 or 50 years old. His beard was messy, and he was wearing an ill-fitting leather jacket. His hairline was a bit high, his stomach was big, and his figure was out of shape.
The man and woman looked at each other, and the man stepped forward, “I’m Su Jingxia, and she’s Jin Tiantian.”
Su Jingxia’s gaze fell on Xiao Chen, who immediately added, “I’m Xiao Chen.”
The three of them stared at the older man in front of them at the same time.
However, the old man’s gaze directly crossed Xiao Chen and Su Jingxia and landed on Jin Tiantian. His gaze was very explicit and could be described as undisguisedly lustful.
Jin Tiantian looked unchanged as if she did not feel the malice in his eyes, or perhaps she felt it but did not care.
The old man said, “I am He Yili. Where is this place?”
Another stranger who didn’t know where this place was.
Xiao Chen also vaguely sensed something.
Su Jingxia shook his head, “All three of us appeared here out of nowhere.”
He Yili revealed his yellow teeth as he pulled a smile and moved closer to Jin Tiantian’s direction.
Jin Tiantian did not hide. Instead, when the man’s hand reached directly to her waist, she pretended to be shy and knocked the man’s chest with her hand.
It is like the look of wanting to refuse but still welcoming.
The pure Xiao Chen looked blankly at the two people in front of him and wondered why they were hugging each other.
But it was really just a hug, and the two quickly let go.
Where the hell is this?
Xiao Chen was very scared.
Perhaps it is because he is too timid that his face became very red. When the atmosphere of the four people became more and more bizarre, he opened his mouth and said, “I want to go to the toilet. Where is the toilet!”
Jin Tiantian’s blushing expression remained unchanged. She glanced at Xiao Chen, and not knowing what was in her mind, she casually pointed in a direction. With some unknown light flashing in her eyes, she replied, pretending to be serious, “I seemed to have just seen the toilet there.”
Su Jingxia glanced at Jin Tiantian and did not make a sound.
Xiao Chen’s face reddened even more with embarrassment. He followed the direction the woman pointed and moved carefully.
It was so dark.
Before Xiao Chen could walk out of a few hundred meters, his eyes were red again as if he would cry in the next second.
Xiao Chen walked for a few more minutes. He looked at the candle in his hand that was getting shorter and shorter and could not last long, but he could not even find the toilet, and then his tears shortly fell.
Before he could regain his composure, he saw a person standing not far from this section of the corridor. He couldn’t see their face clearly and only saw a vague figure.
Xiao Chen’s choking sound was stuck in his throat, and his body trembled severely.
It was not clear what he was thinking, but he watched the blurry figure approaching his direction, and he didn’t run away, nor did he scream.
When it came closer, Xiao Chen’s heart relaxed.
It turned out to be a person.
A man.
At this moment, Xiao Chen realized that his legs had softened from the fright, and he fell directly to the ground.
He looked up with a stupid expression and froze when he met the man’s gray eyes.
The man didn’t say a word and condescendingly looked at Xiao Chen.
The two looked at each other for ten seconds.
Xiao Chen was then stunned by the other party’s next action.
The man actually reached out and hugged Xiao Chen in his arms. Xiao Chen was suspended in the air for a moment and subconsciously tried to break free from the other party’s embrace.
The man frowned, and the hand holding Xiao Chen’s waist patted his backside directly with force. The man’s hoarse voice sounded like he was coaxing, “Behave, don’t move.”
Xiao Chen was stunned. This was the first time he was hit in that place in his life and by a man.
His face burst red for a second, and he struggled even more to free his body.
“Let go of me! Let go of me!”
The man’s gray eyes flashed, seemingly puzzled. Seeing that Xiao Chen was still struggling, he thought it was because Xiao Chen couldn’t hold it anymore. So, he stopped him even tighter instead.
“Don’t worry. I’ll carry you to the toilet now.”
The man paused as if afraid that Xiao Chen would continue to resist, and directly aimed at Xiao Chen’s mouth and planted a kiss.
It was not some butterfly-like light kiss but a heated kiss. After the man blocked Xiao Chen’s mouth, he actually stuck his tongue in. The tip of his tongue licked Xiao Chen’s gums countless times. It even took the initiative to entangle with Xiao Chen’s tongue, wanting to invite it to dance together.
The man’s feet were not idle either. While Xiao Chen was stunned by this kiss, he even held the kiss while walking towards the toilet’s direction.
It is unknown how long the kiss was. Xiao Chen was in a daze when he was finally put down.
The man chuckled lightly, “Do you need me to help you take off your pants?”
