My boyfriend is not a human being? It’s over. I love him even more!

Chapter 157 After the Old House Caught Fire (7)

On the spiral staircase, the man put his hands on the handrail, leaning back in a lazy posture, looking at the girl who was in a dilemma below with interest.

Lilith was short, and had to stand up straight by leaning on the handrail to see what was going on below. In one hand she held the small gift she had received during the day, and in the other hand she held a piggy bank that looked like a kitten, and excitement flashed in her dark eyes.

The blond man tossed a coin. "I bet she'll choose to go out."

Lilith caught the coin and said unconvincedly: "I bet she will come up and ask for help!"

The man was in no hurry to refute. He held his chin with one hand, waiting expectantly for the next development of the story. After all, Lilith was still young and didn't think as much as he thought.

He would choose to bet on Chu Xiang to get out, because according to her logic, she could go outside to seek help from the police, and more importantly, she could also escape from the dangerous building.

This must be a normal decision that every normal person would make.

This bet was not the first one between Eugene and Lilith. As the saying goes, small bets bring joy, big bets harm the body, so they always had to find some fun during the long and boring years.

The tall man squatted in the corner and didn't dare to interrupt. Because of his huge size, even when squatting, he seemed taller than an ordinary person. Such a large figure was squeezed out of a pitiful meaning by him.

In a moment of inattention, the knife in the tall man's hand fell to the ground, making quite a noise.

Eugene and Lilith looked at the tall man at the same time. The tall man trembled and hurriedly picked up the knife in his hand. Holding the knife in his arms, his curled up body looked weak, pitiful and helpless.

The further up the stairs you go, the stronger the smell of blood becomes.

The man was "forced" into a corner by danger and could only wait quietly for the other party's dangerous, cold knife to fall.

As the tall man was approaching, a vase hit him from behind with great force, hitting him right on the head. Even though he was tall, he couldn't help but stagger.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, one hand grabbed Eugene, who was standing there in shock, and ran downstairs with him.

Eugene hadn't tried running for a long time. That was natural. Even if he wanted to catch prey, he had hundreds of ways to do it, and he would never use such a rough action as running.

He glanced at his held hand, then looked at the girl in front of him whose breathing was disordered. There was a rare hint of confusion in his clear and beautiful eyes.

With a few "clicks", her cell phone fell down the stairs and broke into pieces.

The tall guy rubbed his head and subconsciously wanted to chase him. Lilith appeared out of nowhere and stretched out her hand to stop him. The tall guy bumped into her arm and fell backwards to the ground with a plop.

Lilith put the coin into her piggy bank and laughed, "I won!"

She bet that Chu Xiang would come up for help. Although Chu Xiang did not ask anyone for help, she did go upstairs, so she won the bet.

Lilith was very happy. After making so many bets with her master, this was the first time she won!

As an "old man" who had not done strenuous exercise for a long time, Eugene's current condition was not very good. When he stepped down the last step, there was a slight "click" sound, and his left foot tilted and he almost lost his balance.

Chu Xiang hurriedly supported his body, "Are you okay?"

Eugene met her gaze. There was no doubt that this ignorant human girl looked at people with a look of deep disbelief.

——He’s a grown man, but he sprained his ankle after running a few steps?

Eugene was silent for a moment, then smiled, "I'm fine."

At this time, even if he had something to do, he had to say that nothing was wrong.

Chu Xiang was afraid that the people behind would catch up, so she put one of his arms on her shoulders and helped him run forward with some effort. She panted and said, "You'd better run faster, otherwise if you hold me back, I will definitely leave you behind."

Eugene said "Oh" with regret in his eyes, but said tolerantly: "I can understand every decision you make."

At the same time, there was another "click" sound from his other foot, and there was an indescribable weirdness in his expression.

Chu Xiang raised her eyes and glanced at him, "Are you really okay?"

Eugene smiled, "Of course I can."

As a man, it is impossible to admit that you are not good enough.

They walked out of the apartment together. The night wind gave them goose bumps all over their bodies and their scalps tingled.

Outside the building, the night was dark. A thick fog appeared at some point, blocking out the moonlight. The diffuse fog was like a dark speck of sand, waiting for ignorant people to step in and swallow them up.

It was impossible to find direction in this kind of visibility.

Chu Xiang raised his face, "What should I do?"

Eugene finally felt a long-lost sense of vanity being satisfied.

See, even though this woman looked down on him for spraining his ankle twice, in the end she still had to beg him for help, didn't she?
He curved his eyes, smiled calmly and said, "There's a telephone booth over there. Maybe we can go there."

Chu Xiang was unfamiliar with the place and could only trust the judgment of Eugene, a local. She supported him and walked forward into the dark fog.

In the apartment building, people in the room shouted: "She's crazy! If she walks into the fog, she will be swallowed up to the bone!"

The three of them stood in front of the window, staring at the downstairs for a long time. The first one who couldn't help but shout out was Abel.

Andre felt a little sympathetic, "What a pity, the little beauty has only been here for a short time and she has to become food."

He didn't even have the chance to strike up a conversation with her, what a loss.

Vicky said calmly: "You can't survive in this place without a brain."

It was indeed impossible to tell the direction in the fog, but Eugene was able to point out the right path based on his intuition, and gradually, a red telephone booth appeared in front of them.

Chu Xiang helped Eugene walk in and closed the door of the phone booth. There was an odd sense of security in this small space.

Eugene leaned against the glass window, looking a little lazy. He didn't say much. His blue eyes watched the short girl frantically dialing the phone. The fear and tension emanating from her were confined in a small space, which was a delicacy.

When she finds out that the phone calls here always get busy tones, her negative emotions will instantly grow stronger. For the local residents, this is the best pastime.

The voice on the phone was always busy, with no response at all.

Chu Xiang frowned, hung up the phone, and said seriously, "Eugene, the call is not connected."

Eugene was worried, "What should I do?"

Chu Xiang thought for a moment and said, "You are so weak, so you should wait here. I will try to go out and find someone to help me."

Eugene's expression froze for a moment.

It was just because she was indeed emitting a strong negative emotion, but it was not fear or panic, but a strong disgust for her useless companions.
