Chapter 294 You Like Him Very Much
Delphinium quietly followed Luo Su and entered through the staff passage through the side door.
First go straight, then turn right, then go to the end and go down the stairs. Then, not far away, I saw a dark narrow door.
Luo Lu reached out and pushed open the narrow door.
It was pitch black inside.
Delphinium's night vision is not as good as Russell's, and it is difficult for her to see clearly in such a dark environment.
But fortunately, Luo Lu quickly lit the candle with a lighter-like device...
It was a pretty thick white scented candle.
Only then did Delphinium use the faint light to see clearly that there were two huge incense burners in the room.
The incense burner was completely dim, and you could see that the white ash had not yet been cleared away.
Delphiniums can even smell a faint woody aroma in the air. That's not the citrus scent of this scented candle.
In other words, it hasn't been too long since the incense burner was completely extinguished, or the room has not been opened since the incense burner was extinguished.
But that means that its ventilation capacity is quite poor.
"...Is there no light here?"
In this too quiet environment, Delphinium lowered her voice subconsciously: "Is it okay to burn incense burners and candles in a closed space?"
"There is actually a ventilation system here."
Luo Su explained softly and pointed upward: "Look, the smoke from the candle floats directly upward."
Delphinium raised its head, but even if she squinted her eyes, she couldn't see clearly.
"Is this why the room is so dark..."
"Well, this is to make people feel depressed."
Luo Su and Delphinium sat face to face at the table, with the corners of their mouths slightly raised: "Do you know about the 'middleman'?"
"Is Miss Luo Lo the middleman?"
"No, Grandma Lan is. I am Grandma Lan's protector...that's how it should be."
As she said that, Luo Su showed an annoyed look on her face: "But I lost Grandma Lan."
Hearing this, Delphinium's upper body leaned forward slightly.
She asked seriously: "Do you need my help to find it?
"I can control and call the monitoring equipment of the entire Happy Island..."
"I'm afraid I can't find it."
Luo Su shook her head and interrupted Delphinium's words.
"……Downtown area?"
Delphinium asked softly.
Luo Li still shook her head: "It's not that the upper city plus the lower city is everything... She probably wasn't kidnapped, so you don't have to worry about it."
Delphinium was silent for a while.
She asked word for word: "Is it related to the Tower of Babel?"
Hearing this, Luo Su suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at Delphinium in surprise and seriousness.
Delphinium's heart moved.
Sure enough!
She said this term with great courage in her heart. Because she knew how taboo the word was in Uptown.
In fact, Delphinium was not sure whether Luo Su was directly related to her... But now it seems that she was right.
Delphinium immediately explained: "It wasn't Ultramarine who told me... I found it myself."
She was worried about whether this organization had the rule of "no leaking of secrets", so she quickly helped Russell make up for it.
"...It seems to have something to do with him. But actually, it doesn't matter even if he tells you..."
Luo Su paused and did not explain her words immediately. Instead, she asked, "You must be the Delphinium. The head of the execution department of Tian'en Group."
"it's me."
"You came to me suddenly...and you named me. Is there something wrong with my happiness test?"
"It's not you. The problem is Miss Huatouch."
Logically speaking, such details of case handling should not be disclosed to the parties concerned.
But Delphinium guessed that Luo Su was one of the members of the Tower of Babel, so she couldn't hold back her inner restlessness.
She desperately hoped to gain Luo Luo's approval - or at least gain some trust.
Being able to learn more about him...and everything around him.
Luo Luo stared at Delphinium carefully.
Delphinium felt a sense of tension inexplicably...
Soon, the corners of Luo Luo's mouth raised slightly: "Don't be so nervous, Miss Delphinium. Aren't you here to examine me now?"
"You see, your and my nicknames are both names of plants. This is the fate between us."
It was clearly Delphinium who revealed Luo Su's secret, but the position of strength between the two was reversed.
Luo Su no longer used honorifics towards Delphinium, but returned to the same attitude as when they first met. But Delphinium actually felt a little more comfortable...
She always felt that Luo Luo was being weird when he used honorifics towards her.
Although she usually has very little contact with people, Delphinium has this kind of intuition - she is very sensitive to the kindness and malice of others. In other words, because of this, she doesn't like to associate with those hypocritical people.
Seeing Delphinium being a little silent, Luo Su smiled.
She explained to herself: "Grandma Lan can be regarded as my adoptive mother... I was raised by her. When her nickname was still called 'Mother Lan', I was her daughter.
"At the end of last month, Russell came to inquire about something from Grandma Lan. Grandma Lan told him a very important secret... Shortly after that, one of the elf directors was 'changed'."
"What secret?"
Delphinium couldn't help but ask.
Luo Luo shook her head very firmly: "I can't say.
"You can ask Russell, but I can't tell you. What I want to explain to you is just why I want to seek help from Miss Huazhuo.
"...Anyway, on that day, Grandma Lan said to me, 'Something big is going to happen on Happy Island.' But after that, I only went out for more than two hours, and she disappeared from this time."
"Did...did he disappear out of thin air from the secret room?"
Delphinium's expression became serious.
Looking at her, Luo Hao suddenly laughed: "Don't think too much, Grandma Lan should have left on her own initiative.
"It's just that she doesn't take me with her when she goes out, which really hits me. Grandma Lan doesn't have any fighting ability, she is just a middleman. She always takes me with her wherever she goes.
"And this time she didn't take me with her just so she wouldn't drag me down."
Luo Luo said softly: "In other words, she has been prepared not to come back.
"On the rice paper left on the table, there were only four big words written on it: You are free. I was the only one who would enter this room in the store, so this was only meant for me.
“I felt frustrated, so I went to seek help from Miss Huazhuo.
"But there is one thing Miss Delphinium can rest assured - after I awakened my psychic powers, I have tested the red and blue shift. I am now a red shift level 2 and a blue shift level 4. The company should have my test report, you can transfer it. take a look."
Luo Su remained calm and said calmly: "With Miss Huachu's skills, she won't be able to drive me crazy. She only wants to help me, and has no motive to drive me crazy."
Her words were full of confidence and well-hidden pride.
She does have the capital to be proud of... possessing level four blue shift without being exposed to psychic energy, which is very close to the rationality of ordinary humans at their limit.
But it's still worse than Delphinium, which spontaneously awakens its psychic powers.
Delphinium realized more information from it: "Is Miss Huazhuo also from the Tower of Babel?"
"It's not convenient for me to say this."
Luo Luo's eyes glanced behind Delphinium, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
That seems to be correct. Delphinium was determined.
I see.
Russell had a close relationship with both of them, trusted them so much, and shared a secret. This is just because they are all members of the Tower of Babel...
“What about the Birds of Paradise?”
Delphinium asked.
"Who is that?"
Luo Li raised her eyebrows and asked seriously.
Then Delphinium's mood suddenly worsened: "A bishop of the Cyber Church."
"……oh."
Luo Su narrowed her eyes slightly: "I really don't know him.
"I don't have a good look on the 'bishop'. Rather, what I hate the most is the bishop of the Cyber Church."
"……Why?"
Delphinium asked with some confusion.
Luo Luo did not answer this question, but looked at Delphinium steadily.
She burst out laughing.
This was the first time she laughed from the bottom of her heart.
Luo Luo's face showed a smile that even Delphinium found very beautiful: "You like him very much."
Hearing this, Delphinium's face suddenly turned red.
She quickly said: "Please don't tell Russell that I have been here... No, please don't tell him that I asked about things related to the Tower of Babel..."
"That might be a little late."
A joking man's laughter sounded from behind Delphinium: "I've heard it all."
Delphinium's expression suddenly changed.
As if conditioned, the hair on her ears exploded.
There was a buzzing sound behind him, and the silver-white metal prosthetic limb "Strelitzia" like a cat's tail immediately ejected!
She immediately felt regretful and worried that her prosthetic body would hurt or even kill the people in the Tower of Babel... That might make it difficult for Russell and cause him some trouble.
After all, Delphinium is not yet able to control it skillfully. When it feels threatened, it will automatically eject towards the source of the threat.
...but Delphinium's heart sank immediately. Because she didn't feel like she was touching the entity at all.
She heard a pleasant click of the tongue.
A man who also had a Samoyed soul walked around from behind her and sat in front of her carefreely on the table.
"Sister Shandie's children are already so old..."
Looking at the delphinium, the man sighed casually.
Delphinium was startled.
Because of her mother's name, she is called Nanshan Die.
Seeing a face that was vaguely similar to her own, her vigilance and hostility immediately subsided a lot.
Delphinium's upper body tensed up nervously, and she asked hesitantly: "Excuse me, are you..."
"If you want...you can call me Nanliu Jing. Or you can call me uncle."
The man looked at Delphinium with a somewhat nostalgic expression: "Of course, you can also call me by another name...
"——[Bad Day] at the Tower of Babel."
