[Fifth Personality] Escape from the manor

Don't ask me to let you go? "

"Would you?"

Qiao Yan asked nonchalantly.

The knife in Joseph's hand appeared again. He looked at the knife in his hand, and then said to Qiao Yan:

"perhaps."

Hearing this ambiguous answer, he saw the knife again.Subconsciously, Qiao Yan felt chills in her body, and she remembered the last game where she escaped from Joseph's hands by chance.

He also said "maybe" casually, and she, who seemed gentle, comforted "don't be afraid", and then stabbed the knife into her body.

The supervisor photographer is just more human-like in appearance than other supervisors, but in fact they are all equally cold and cruel in essence.

"You can do it now, I can't escape from you."

Qiao Yan looked past Joseph, and looked at a carnival chair not far behind him.She thought that if she was knocked down, she would probably be put on that chair.

"I'm glad you can recognize this fact and don't need me to do unnecessary chasing."

The supervisor with a crack on his face smiled, then panted slightly and pulled his scarf:

"After all, I really don't like hunting."

He doesn't like hunting like Jack and Jack, on the contrary, he prefers the feeling of the prey being actively sent into his arms.

After loosening the scarf, his panting gradually disappeared. He looked at Qiao Yan with a half-smile, and said:

"I can let you go."

Qiao Yan was startled, but she didn't relax a bit.Sure enough, Joseph took the next sentence:

"But it's conditional."

Qiao Yan looked up at him, waiting for him to say the conditions.

"After midnight, there is a mirror in the hall of Odiris Manor. I am waiting for your arrival behind the mirror."

"Ok."

With the hope of escaping, Qiao Yan agreed without hesitation.As for the follow-up completion conditions, she wanted to wait until she escaped from the game before making a decision.

"I don't like being fooled. Miss Yan, there is a high probability that you will meet me in the next game."

Seeming to see through what Qiao Yan was thinking, Joseph smiled and added.The blade of his left hand was placed horizontally on the palm of his right hand, and the sharp blade reflected a cold luster.

Qiao Yan looked at the supervisor who smiled and warned her, trying to show some respect.However, after temporarily escaping the danger of being lost, her mind became active again:

Is there a high chance of meeting him in the next game?What's the meaning?Can the regulator decide who the survivors who participate in the game are?

No, it shouldn't be like this.If this is the case, every game before her is probably Joseph.

Before Qiao Yan could come up with something, large swathes of color smudged from the supervisor in front of her. At the same time, the world in Qiao Yan's eyes gradually lost its color.

The noble and beautiful boy favored by time reappeared in front of Qiao Yan.

He took Qiao Yan's hand and walked to a camera, and took a photo.

A black-and-white photo slowly floated into his hands from the air. He put the photo into Qiao Yan's hands, and then looked at her with a half-smile, and the young man's clear voice was somewhat subtle:

"Keep it well, don't accidentally burn it."

The end of his words rose slightly, revealing some juvenile ridicule.

Qiao Yan looked at the black and white photo of her and Joseph in her hand, stared at it for a few seconds, and finally accepted it quite obediently.

Joseph watched her put the photo into the pocket of her coat, and then led her to the nearest motor with a smile, letting her decipher the motor with peace of mind.

After all, only one motor has been deciphered in the game field so far, and at least one more motor must be deciphered before the cellar will appear.

Qiao Yan put her hands on the motor and started to decipher.Her deciphering speed was slower than usual, and she even failed the calibration several times.It was difficult for her to concentrate, because the supervisor who looked like a nobleman dressed as a beautiful boy was standing beside her, watching her decipher the motor, while touching the knife in his hand or turning the photo in his hand boredly.

The heartbeat warning on Qiao Yan kept reminding her of danger, but she couldn't turn off the heartbeat warning given to "survivors" by the rules of the game.So it can only continue to decipher in this weird atmosphere.

"Sir, if you feel bored, you don't have to stare here."

After another calibration failure due to lack of concentration, Qiao Yan exhaled slowly, then looked at the handsome supervisor standing beside her and suggested this.

The only beautiful boy in the black-and-white world turned the photo in his hand, smiled and rejected Qiao Yan's proposal:

"I still think it's better to look at you."

His blue eyes that seem to be glowing look at you with a smile that is not a smile, revealing an unspeakable demeanor.

Qiao Yan naturally doesn't care if she just looks at it.But she was more afraid, and was cut with a knife when she was concentrating on deciphering the motor.Although Joseph had already promised to let her go, it was still difficult for her to relax.

After stumbling and deciphering for a long time, Qiao Yan finally deciphered this motor.But unexpectedly, the motor didn't light up.

Qiao Yan turned her head in doubt, and looked at Joseph who had been standing beside her.

The delicate and beautiful supervisor put the knife aside, tilted his head slightly, his sharp fingertips curled the silver hair next to his ear, and then smiled:

"I'm so sorry, I forgot that motors don't light up in this world."

Qiao Yan looked at him in a daze for a second, then suppressed the emotions in her heart again, and asked quite calmly and obediently:

"...Sir, what do you mean: I should go to the real world to decipher?"

Qiao Yan felt that Joseph did it on purpose.Because obviously he unfolded the mirror world, pulled her into this world and led her to this motor for her to decipher.It is impossible for him to forget that the mirror world cannot repair the motor.

He did it on purpose.

But what if he knew he did it on purpose?Qiao Yan could only endure it, after all, she had to thank this gentleman for his whim before she got into the chair.

……

Joseph looked down at Qiao Yan, pretending to be kind and stroking her hair with a smile on his face.

Her obedient appearance is really touching, as if she can be manipulated without complaint or regret, as if everything she does to her is allowed.

The slightly sharp fingertips moved from the hair to Qiao Yan's face, and the back of his hand gently stroked the skin of Qiao Yan's face. Joseph smiled lightly:

"Don't bother."

The young man's voice is gorgeous and noble, very pleasant.

If he still had that old voice and the same cracked face, Qiao Yan could barely accept his pretended kind behavior even if no signs of aging could be seen.But he in the mirror world is too exquisite and beautiful, he doesn't seem to be as old as her, and even his voice is such a gorgeous and noble boy's voice... Qiao Yan felt that it was against him to pretend to be kind in the tone of an elder reconciled.

Daoes of color smeared from the feet of the beautiful supervisor in front of him like paint falling into the water, until they covered the whole world in Qiao Yan's eyes.

Qiao Yan found that the progress of the motor in front of her that should have been deciphered had been regressed by half.

This made Qiao Yan feel like being teased, but she didn't have an attack, she just looked obediently at the supervisor standing beside her.

The color of the world returned, and the boy who seemed to be remembered by time lost his color again.Cracks like a broken statue climbed up his face again.

Qiao Yan felt that Joseph was very special no matter how he looked at it.

In the colorful world, he is the only one who loses color; in the black and white world, he is the only one who shines.It seems that he and the world share the same color and cannot coexist.

"It's rude to stare at a man all the time."

The old voice came to mind again, Qiao Yan subconsciously looked away, and apologized reflexively:

"Feel sorry."

Although she apologized, her behavior showed no sign of repentance.Because the next moment she set her sights on Joseph again.

And Joseph, who accused her of being rude, looked at her with a smile, and his expression did not show any displeasure at all.

"Sir, I'm a little curious. Are your colors destined not to coexist with the colors of the world?"

Perhaps deciphering the motor was too boring, and Qiao Yan, who was out of danger for the time being, started her rambling chat again.

In Qiao Yan's view, there is nothing wrong with small talk.It might be able to distract her from her current tension, and she might be able to get some unexpected information.

"Coexistence is possible,"

Joseph, who looked like an old black and white photo, looked at Qiao Yan, and his old voice was somewhat seductive:

"After midnight, when you look through the mirror, you will see miracles."

Seeing that he mentioned the condition again, Qiao Yan's thoughts began to turn again, but she still had such a docile look on her face.

Perhaps it was because she was not as nervous as before, Qiao Yan's speed of deciphering the motor was normal this time, and soon the progress of the motor would be full, and the light on the motor would soon be turned on.

However, Joseph suddenly drew a knife.

Qiao Yan, who was still focused on Joseph, thought he was going to cut herself, so she took a few steps back in an instant.However, she found that Joseph's target was not her.

His target is the motor.

He stabbed the knife in his hand into the motor that was nearly full of deciphering progress, and the sound of the blade colliding with the internal parts of the motor was a bit ear-piercing.

When Joseph returned to his original position with the knife in his hand with a relaxed smile, Qiao Yan found that the progress of the motor had regressed by half.

Qiao Yan didn't go forward to decipher the motor anymore, she just looked at Joseph, wondering if he really wanted to let her go this time.

"Sir... do you really want to let go
