Chapter 222 I like to live together, but I don't like to die together.
"You're really good at running!" The male waiter with the red nameplate behind him kicked the boy on the ground.
Since he was going to act, he naturally wanted to make it as realistic as possible. Ji Xingyi didn't use the power of the Crimson Water to protect himself and took the kick head-on. But his 18-year-old body was still too fragile. Just that one kick made him vomit blood.
"How dare you hurt Mona! Those despicable four worms, they deserve to die!"
The waiter with the red nameplate had blond hair and was kicking the person repeatedly, venting his anger as if he wanted to kill him!
"Assistant!" Another male waiter with a red name tag, who arrived late, grabbed the blond youth. "Atkins, he's an important experimental subject! Don't waste him!"
Adkins grabbed the man's collar in a rage: "He hurt Mona! Klein, how dare you speak up for these bastards!"
“Akins, do you intend to disobey the prince’s orders?” Klein sighed. “Every human being is an important experimental subject. Will you act rashly, or choose to consider the greater good?”
Meanwhile, Jiang Lin had already taken the elevator and safely returned to the 12th floor. Before opening the door, she saw Jiang Yu sitting on the sofa in the room.
"Oh, you're back alone?" Jiang Yu acted as if he were in his own room, skillfully taking two cans of beer from the freezer and tossing one to Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin took the beer, a deep smile playing on his lips: "Are you happy that I came back alone?"
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just in a good mood," Jiang Yu shrugged.
How could I not be in a good mood after eating and drinking my fill?
"Now that I think about it, I thought you would live and die together."
Jiang Lin: "I only like living together, not dying together."
"How heartless." Jiang Yu silently lit a candle for Ji Xing: "I only took one leaf of Vislan grass. You can count them yourself."
The two of them just threw the Vislan grass into the room without hiding it, which Jiang Yu didn't expect.
Jiang Lin knew this guy had misunderstood him, but he was too lazy to explain: "No need, I was planning to come find you anyway."
Jiang Yu narrowed his eyes: "What do you mean? What did you encounter down there?"
Jiang Lin: "Tell me first, how many red nameplates do you know?"
Seeing Jiang Lin's serious tone, Jiang Yu also became serious: "Four, two men and two women."
The first one was a blond man. I saw him that night when Bai Chuchu and I were at the bar. I asked Bai Chuchu to ask the waiters, and they called him Atkins.
"The second one is Ivy from the casino, you saw her tonight too. Two women, one named Mona, with black hair tied in a ponytail, we found her in the arcade on the second floor."
"The last one has short brown hair and is a bit chubby." Jiang Yu gestured with his fingers in the shape of an hourglass: "We don't know her name yet. She appeared at the swimming pool on the third floor."
Jiang Lin couldn't help but look at Jiang Yu with new respect. This guy actually managed to get information on four red nameplates; he was indeed a pro.
Jiang Lin: "We met four people downstairs: Ivy, Mona and Adkins (whom you mentioned), and a man with black hair."
“Then there must be at least five! I suspected before that each floor of the entertainment area was managed by a red-named individual. But these people are hard to run into; it took me a lot of effort to get information on these four.” Jiang Yu downed a third of his beer in one gulp: “You guys got taken down by them?”
"They took him away not to kill him. He won't die." Jiang Lin thought this guy was really boring. What did he mean by "broken"? As long as Ji Xingyi used his supernatural powers, escaping wouldn't be a problem.
"What exactly did you find?" Jiang Yu tilted his head slightly, his fingertips tracing the edge of the beer can, his eyes fixed on Jiang Lin like a hawk.
Jiang Lin: "It's nothing. They arrested people and took them to the basement to inject them with something called 'blue blood'."
Lu Xingtong's first rule reminder was a system warning about the precautions players might take when captured by a red nameplate.
“If blue spots appear on the body of the person who was injected, they will conduct a second phase of human trials. Those who do not develop blue spots will be released, and then…” Jiang Lin smiled as he said this.
“Mutation!” Jiang Yu continued Jiang Lin’s words, pressing, “What is the second stage?”
Jiang Lin: "I don't know."
"Is it that you really don't know, or do you need certain conditions?" Jiang Yu was a little skeptical.
"No conditions are required. I really don't know." Jiang Lin didn't mince words and remained completely frank.
But the more Jiang Lin said that, the more skeptical Jiang Yu became: "You don't want any conditions, and you're just telling me everything like this? Why? Are you giving it away for free?"
“It’s not a free gift,” Jiang Lin said meaningfully, his eyes deep. “I have already obtained the information I wanted.”
Jiang Yu frowned, vaguely sensing that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
"You can leave now, I need to rest." Jiang Lin opened the door and tilted her head slightly.
Jiang Yu finished the rest of his beer, threw the can into the trash can, and without delay, put his hands in his pockets and walked out of the room with a flourish: "I don't like owing favors. Here's a message for you: the schedule for tomorrow's musical has been updated. If you're in the mood, you can go check it out."
Jiang Lin smiled as she closed the door, but after the door closed, the smile on her face vanished completely, and she murmured softly, "It wasn't him after all."
Jiang Yu pondered his conversation with Jiang Lin and walked back to his room on the 13th floor.
He opened the door and went in. The person on the bed was still asleep, so Jiang Yu took off his clothes, got into bed, and pulled the person into his arms.
Ji Ran's clothes had already been stripped off by Jiang Yu. Feeling the chill brought by Jiang Yu's actions, she muttered softly, "Where did you go?"
Looking at the boy with a flushed face in the quilt, Jiang Yu felt that his bad habit had relapsed. He reached his large hand behind Ji Ran's back and carefully felt Ji Ran's shoulder blades: "I went to exchange some information with someone. This dungeon is not easy to pass."
Ji Ran, startled by Jiang Yu's icy fingertips, shrank into Jiang Yu's embrace, seeking warmth: "I believe you, you are Jiang Yu, you are God Jiang."
Jiang Yu didn't particularly like the title "Jiang God," considering it just low-level players' flattery and rather childish. But hearing it from Ji Ran's mouth surprisingly made Jiang Yu feel quite comfortable.
Ji Ran suddenly felt Jiang Yu's fingers moving towards a spot that still hurt, instantly waking him from his hazy sleep. Before he could even get up, he was pinned down.
"Why are you doing this again! Ugh... Please don't... Jiang Yu..." Ji Ran's eyes were brimming with tears.
Jiang Yu shamelessly said, "I have a new lead, and we can come again as agreed."
"How can this be?" Ji Ran was truly crying, sobbing softly while unable to control her boundless tolerance for Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu smiled and asked in return, "Don't you like it too?"
"Aren't you just taking advantage of my feelings for you?" Ji Ran opened her mouth but didn't make a sound, her eyes reddening as she looked at Jiang Yu.
