Time in a collapsing world

Sakura's fox ears twitched, and her sensitive hearing told her that there were the voices of the Gracie family and the footsteps of someone following on the second floor, while the third floor...

Dong Dong Dong————!

At the end of the corridor on the third floor, there was a knock on the door, and Alicia's voice: "Mebius, open the door quickly, I know you are there, I have something to do with Xi~?"

Unfortunately, there was no response from inside.

Alicia tugged on the door handle. Just as Mebius thought, she would not destroy things in this villa.

Alicia glanced at the window at the end of the corridor, and disappeared in the next moment. Then there was the sound of the window opening. The howling blizzard blew in through the open window, and a lot of white snow melted inside. Became a puddle of water.

Two or three minutes later, Alicia came back from the window again, dejected, because the window in the room where Mebius was located was also closed and the curtains were drawn, so she could not break in through the window.

How can I get in...

While Alicia was in distress, she glanced over and saw two girls with pink hair looking at her at the stairwell in the middle of the corridor, Sakura and Ling.

Sakura tilted her head and leaned against the corner wall, exposing half of her body, as if she wasn't hiding intentionally.

Ling only showed a small head. Seeing that Alicia had discovered it, she subconsciously shrank back, but then she walked out as if giving up, "Sister Alicia, hello~"

"Hello, Ling, what are you and your sister doing secretly?"

"We're...uh, passing by?"

Ling was still thinking of an excuse, but Sakura didn't want to cover it up. She walked out from the corner completely, walked forward quickly, and came to Alicia's side.

Glancing at the door on Alicia's side, Sakura asked, "Is Li in there? And Mebius?"

"Yeah, I've been in there for a while."

Sakura's fox ears moved slightly, and there was an extremely slow heartbeat on the opposite side of the door from them.

"Mebius is behind the door."

Sakura said these words, and the next moment her heartbeat was far away from the door.

"Mebius, please open the door. If you don't open it, I might have to force my way in~?"

Alicia was trying to scare her in vain, even she didn't believe that Mebius would react to this.

In the room, Mebius sat sideways on the soft big bed, his legs in warm stockings crossed each other, and one hand caressing Nozomi's head, who was lying in the center of the bed. She seemed to be about to wake up. Mobius knew that this was going to the next stage, and he had to get rid of the troublesome guys outside first.

Otherwise, if they really heard some suspicious noises coming from the room, not to mention Alicia, the fox-eared girl would definitely kick the door open and rush in.

Then Mobius finally responded to Alicia's words outside the door:

"Oh, then you just kick the door open, or let the guy next to you use her knife skills to split the door open? Oh, I forgot, she didn't seem to bring a knife tonight~"

"Oh, Mebius, you finally said something. I thought you had an accident when you were doing bad things, and you were about to rush in to save people~?"

"Dr. Mebius, please open the door."

Alicia and Sakura said at the same time, but their tone was completely different. Alicia didn't look anxious, but Sakura, despite her honorific, spoke in a low tone, as if she was really going to break the door at the next moment. And enter the general.

"Heh, no one told you that it's impolite to disturb other people's rest without permission?"

"But I want to stop a crime from happening. I stun a good girl without authorization and take her back to her room... Mebius, this behavior of yours is very wrong~?"

"Dizzied? Alicia, what are you talking about? I just invited the little blue mouse to come upstairs to sleep. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"Then Mebius, just open the door~ I promise, as long as we go in, we will never make any noise to disturb Xi's sleep~?"

Alicia and Mebius were still bickering, while Sakura looked at her sister. She had already run up from the first floor, panting from exhaustion, and shook her head at her sister, " Sister Eden said there is no spare key to this room.”

"..."

This is also expected, otherwise Alicia would have borrowed the key from Eden when she came up, how could she be locked out of the door like this?

Mebius will never open the door. Is it possible that he really wants to break in?

Alicia will not destroy the villa, but Sakura is not sure. If necessary, she is willing to bear the compensation for a door.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps coming up the stairs was heard again, from the second floor to the third floor, and there were two of them.

"Sister Dai, is this here?"

Pado's figure first appeared at the stairs, followed closely by Destobia. As soon as the latter came up, she looked in the direction of Alicia and the three of them, with an expression on her face that seemed to say:

[You still have to rely on me to find a solution at the critical moment. 】

After Sakura was dragged away by Suzu, Destobia followed quietly. When she saw that the three of them were helpless because the door to the room was closed, she thought of something.

If you don't have a key to open the door, you can pick the lock. Isn't Pado an expert in this area?

Destobia still remembered the stolen goods she saw in Pado's cabinet when she went to deliver the invitation.

What kind of thief is a thief if he can't pick a lock?

"Huh? Sister Ai Li, Sister Ying and Xiao Ling? What are you doing around here?"

Pado and Destobia came closer. The former didn't quite understand what happened. She only knew that Destobia pulled her up to help open the lock. Could it be the door in front of her?

Pado turned to look at Destobia and asked with her eyes. She nodded seriously, "Please."

"Leave it to me!"

Alicia and Sakura also reacted, and their eyes lit up. Only Ling was kept in the dark. She had no idea about Pado's profession, nor did she know that the other party had already reached the level of proficiency in various petty theft methods. .

Padu took out a small iron wire and gently inserted it into the keyhole of the door. He bowed and pointed one eye at the keyhole, prying it step by step while explaining: "This The door's lock is a bit high-end, and it's not that easy to pry open, but it doesn't matter, who made me Pado, who can do anything except fight? Give me two more minutes, and I'm sure to complete the task!"

Click click click——!

Mebius in the room also heard two new sounds outside, as well as the sound of the door lock being pried. He narrowed his eyes, stood up, and casually moved a small sofa in front of the door.

I have to find a way to leave...

Looking toward the window, Mebius snorted.

When you come in, she goes out. How could it be possible for you to ruin my good deeds so easily?
