Chapter 1193: 1193: Perhaps Laying in Wait

The two of them stayed hidden above, not daring to breathe loudly, watching as the person who entered didn’t notice the big black hole above their heads, but instead went straight back into the cold room. Luo Yirui immediately put the small window back in place without securing it again. Before those two came out, Luo Yirui and Little Fatty left together.

Halfway through, Little Fatty tugged on Luo Yirui, asking what he had seen inside.

Luo Yirui told everything to Little Fatty, except for the matter of Jiang Mingzhong, even sharing his own doubts.

Little Fatty, thinking about these matters, didn’t notice Luo Yirui’s strange behavior.

Some things, you just have to adjust and adapt to by yourself.

The two continued forward. He originally wanted to stay and see what kind of experiment the laboratory planned to conduct, but after thinking it over, he decided against it. Understanding this place thoroughly was more important, and it seemed Hou Baiyu had already explored this side.

The blank spot on the map appeared like a crescent moon. The place they just talked about only filled in a corner.

"Little Rui, look, is this a place for keeping pets? Could it all be prepared for that young lady from the Nie Family?" Little Fatty whispered.

Luo Yirui looked down, and indeed, there were many cages below, a total of four rows: one for cats, one for dogs, one for rabbits, and one for white mice.

Seeing those little white mice, Luo Yirui roughly guessed that the other animals were used for experiments as well.

Things were getting more and more mysterious. Using animals for experiments, using humans for experiments, what on earth are these people planning?

Luo Yirui looked at the row of cat cages, various kinds of cats inside, including black ones. He wondered if Black Coal Ball might be among them. Unfortunately, all three black cats weren’t Black Coal Ball. You could tell from their eyes; they lacked Black Coal Ball’s liveliness.

Disappointed, Luo Yirui continued forward. Where exactly had Black Coal Ball run off to, and would it come back?

Others only saw it as a cat, but only Luo Yirui knew it wasn’t one.

The two of them spent an hour filling one-third of the crescent. At this pace, finishing the task by five o’clock was impossible.

Because the blank area in the middle of the crescent was the most extensive, they had to search horizontally left and right. But if they sped up, it would truly just be map-making, which was pointless.

Luo Yirui considered splitting up, but timid Little Fatty vetoed it, thinking it would be hard to make it out alive alone.

No choice, honor is only valuable if you’re alive.

Brother Pang was the most realistic.

"I feel we should go in that direction," Little Fatty pointed to the left.

"Why?"

"Intuition."

"..."

Luo Yirui rolled his eyes, sitting there contemplating what path Hou Baiyu would take.

Only by walking the path Hou Baiyu walked could they find the answer. Saving time was optimal.

"Have you ever considered a possibility," Little Fatty suddenly said.

Luo Yirui turned his head.

"Since Fu Xuan Ge got trapped inside, the Nie Family likely knows that people from the Ancient Family discovered this place. Unlike someone like me without a name, Fu Xuan Ge is quite famous among the current generation."

Luo Yirui was silent. Only now thinking of this issue, was it too late?

"You thought of this long ago? Then why, knowing there’s a possibility someone is lying in wait, did you still come?" Little Fatty glared.

Luo Yirui spread his hands; he couldn’t think of it. But his mother could help him think. Since she let him come, it meant it was within a controllable range.
