Chu Ziyu's pupils suddenly contracted in the darkness, and his Adam's apple rolled.

Lin Ci'an's canine teeth pressed against the gland on the back of his neck, and his warm breath sprayed against his ears - the feeling was so real that it didn't seem like an illusion.

"You..."

His voice was hoarse and his silver-gray eyelashes trembled violently. "How did you find this place?"

&34;Guess?&34;

Lin Ci'an pulled his silver hair and forced him to look up. The emergency light on the top of the cell revealed the blood on his pale face. "From the moment you replied 'I know', I knew you were going to do something stupid."

"How did you get in?"

Lin Ci'an sneered and suddenly pinched his chin with his other hand.

The warm, fresh touch calmed the rage surging in his chest a little, but it burned even more fiercely the next second.

——How dare he?

——How dare you enter a place like this alone?

—How dare you...let him almost lose him?

This thought coiled around him like a poisonous snake, strangling him and making it difficult for him to breathe.

He stared at the undried blood on Chu Ziyu's pale face, and suddenly had the urge to raze this place to the ground.

With the faint red light seeping from the ceiling of the dungeon, Chu Ziyu saw the fresh slave brand under the other party's collarbone - RF-518, which was only one digit different from the number he forged.

&34;What do you think?&34;

Lin Ci'an's voice was dangerous and gentle, "Of course, he was 'caught' in here just like you."

Chu Ziyu's breathing stagnated.

Lin Ci'an actually forged a slave identity and even deliberately branded himself... Is he crazy?!

"You—"

Before he could finish his words, Lin Ci'an suddenly pressed him against the damp wall and crushed the glands on the back of his neck with his canine teeth.

Chu Ziyu groaned, but used the pain to cover up the pain and quietly used his knee to push against the other person's leg.

(…Body temperature is normal, no injuries.)

He breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help laughing.

——It’s crazy.

But the secret, almost twisted sense of satisfaction in my chest grew stronger and stronger.

(He came to see me.)

(He could have waited for me to come back, waited for me to explain, waited for me...)

(But he refused.)

(He insisted on chasing after me, insisted on getting into this muddy water, insisted on——)

Suddenly, he felt the other party's spiritual tentacles forcefully invading his sea of ​​consciousness, and questioned angrily:

(How dare you come here alone?)

(Did you also throw away your laptop?)

(Are you deliberately not telling me?)

Chu Ziyu's eyelashes trembled, but she didn't deny it.

Lin Ci'an's eyes suddenly became terrifyingly gloomy.

&34;You think I'm going to let you take this risk alone?&34;

His voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth, "Or do you think this is the only way between us?"

Chu Ziyu pursed his lips and whispered after a while: "...I just don't want to drag you down."

"Drag?"

Lin Ci'an laughed angrily and pressed his fingertips hard on the brand under his collarbone, causing Chu Ziyu to gasp slightly in pain.

"Did you know that old Horn is broadcasting your vital signs live? The people in the Tower Council are taking bets on how long you can live!"

Chu Ziyu was startled, then curled his lips: "...guessed it."

Lin Ci'an stared at him, suddenly lowered her head, and bit his lips hard.

The kiss tasted of blood, almost like a punishment.

Chu Ziyu did not dodge, but even took the initiative to move forward, licking the blood beads on the other's canine teeth with the tip of his tongue.

When they separated, Lin Ci'an's breathing was a little disordered, and suppressed violence was surging in his dark eyes.

"Plan."

He said coldly.

Chu Ziyu took a breath and whispered, "The experimental subject in Area D is a 'gift' from the tower, used to tame the disobedient S-class sentinels. I originally planned to release it to create chaos and then blow up this place."

He paused, then looked up at Lin Ci'an: "But now... you're here."

Lin Ci'an narrowed his eyes: "So?"

Chu Ziyu suddenly smiled, his black pupils gleaming in the dark: "So, we can play a bigger game."

He leaned close to Lin Ci'an's ear, his breath warm: "There is a sample of symbiotic guide element in Cole's laboratory. This is what Horn wants."

We can 'help' him and let everyone in the tower see what kind of deal their respected Inspector has made in private. &34;

Lin Ci'an was silent for a moment, then suddenly pinched the back of his neck with such force that it almost broke his bones.

&34;I'll settle the score with you when I get back.&34;
