[Fifth Personality] Escape from the manor

Now, it seems that if she comes as required, Joseph will become much more talkative in comparison.

Joseph led Qiao Yan up to the second floor to his room.

Qiao Yan followed him, looking at the appearance of the so-called "world on the other side of the mirror" while walking.

To be honest, whether it is the layout or the decoration, this place is exactly the same as the Oletis Manor where Qiao Yan lived.If it weren't for the different people living in it, Qiao Yan might still be confused and didn't go to other places through the mirror at all.

Qiao Yan was walking on the corridor on the second floor, and a person walked towards her.

It was a woman, wearing a scarlet kimono, with black hair like ink, and skin as white as snow.She is very beautiful, with a soft and poignant feeling, even if her eyes are completely black, no one will deny her beauty.

Qiao Yan's body subconsciously froze for a moment, because she recognized the gentle beauty who was walking towards her - the regulator [Red Butterfly]. Her appearance basically did not change much from the one in the game.

The woman with a soft and poignant temperament walked past Qiao Yan in small steps, humming a little melody with a bit of sadness in her mouth.The moment Qiao Yan passed by, Qiao Yan was very sure that she saw the beautiful female supervisor slightly turned her head and glanced at her.

There was no emotion in those pure black eye sockets, Qiao Yan felt as if she heard someone sighing in her ears, the voice was cool and deep, deep into the bottom of people's hearts.

"かごめ, かごめ【cage seam, cage seam】

かごの中の鸟は【The bird in the cage】

いついつ出やる【I want to spread my wings and escape】

Yeming けのばんに【In the night before dawn】

Crane と 亀 が slippery った 【Crane and turtle fell down】

Hou ろのWho is in the front...【Who is the person behind you】"

The nursery rhymes hummed by the female supervisor, Qiao Yan could clearly hear the pronunciation of a few lines:

"kagomekagome, kagononakanotoriwa..."

It's Japanese, she doesn't understand.

Although she couldn't understand it, she always felt that the ballad seemed to imply something, which made her feel bad.Recalling the song hummed by the female supervisor just now over and over again in her mind, Qiao Yan's pace gradually slowed down a bit, and even stopped.

When Qiao Yan stopped unknowingly, Joseph who was beside her immediately took her hand and led her to continue walking.

……

Qiao Yan was taken to Joseph's room.

The layout and decoration of the Orytis Manor inside and outside the mirror are exactly the same, but the difference can be seen when entering the room.

Joseph's room was very large. After Qiao Yan looked around, she secretly compared it with the survivors' room.The overseer's room is significantly larger and even contains other smaller rooms.

The layout and decoration can also be seen the difference, the most obvious point is: the decoration of their survivor's room gives people a feeling of only temporary residence, while the supervisor's room gives people a feeling of long-term settlement.

But if you think about it carefully, it feels normal.

After all, no survivor would want to live here for a long time, because the purpose of everyone who comes here is to leave after victory.

……

"What are you looking at?"

A pair of blue eyes that seemed to be shining appeared in front of Qiao Yan, interrupting her scrutiny of the layout of the room.

Qiao Yan subconsciously looked away, and cast her gaze on the portraits hanging all over the wall:

"Is that...you?"

Seriously, Qiao Yan thinks Joseph's room is quite strange.Generally, it is normal to have portraits on the walls of the room, but it is not normal for the walls to be covered with portraits.

What's more, those portraits were all portraits, and the oil painting style was very realistic. At a glance, it seemed that many people were staring at her, which made her feel slightly uncomfortable.

"Yeah, do you have to ask this question every time?"

Joseph sat on the reception sofa, his tone was relaxed, and he even smiled.It can be seen that he is in a good mood now.

There were other meanings in his words, Qiao Yan knew that it was probably not the first time she had come to this place, but she still didn't choose to ask more questions.

Joseph, who looked like a beautiful boy, sat on the sofa and made an inviting gesture to Qiao Yan, signaling that she didn't have to stand there too cautiously.

Qiao Yan looked at him, then carefully chose a place a little far away from Joseph to sit down.Qiao Yan looked docile on the surface, but she was cautious in her behavior.Joseph wasn't surprised by this, and he didn't express too much about Qiao Yan's choice. He just picked up a photo album on the table next to him and flipped through it. A black and white photo was twirling at the tip of his slightly pointed right finger. appeared, and he put that photo in the photo album.

After sitting down, Qiao Yan kept watching Joseph's movements. She thought he would say something after sitting down, such as the reason why she must come to the mirror, or what he wanted her to do...

However, Qiao Yan found that Joseph seemed to be looking at the photos all the time and didn't intend to speak first.In the end, Qiao Yan couldn't help but chose to ask first:

"Is there something you asked me to do here? Or is there something you need me to do?"

Joseph has never revealed his purpose, which made Qiao Yan's already relaxed mood even more tense: because the result is unknown, she always easily forgets the worst aspects and thinks about it.

The beautiful boy who had been flipping through the photo album finally raised his face to look at Qiao Yan, his expression seemed to soften a bit, and it seemed to be no different from usual:

"Fiery affection needs to be treated seriously. I have thought about it for a long time, and maybe it is time to answer."

What he said didn't seem to have anything to do with Qiao Yan's question, but Qiao Yan seemed to hear something, and felt weird, so she kept silent.

"I thought you would change your dress, after all, it's not game time. Young girls can live up to this short time by dressing up once in a while."

His blue eyes swept across Qiao Yan, as if he felt a little regretful about her clothes.

Qiao Yan still maintained her obedient appearance, pretending to be dumb in silence.

She was wearing the most common outfit in normal games, a gray hooded top and black trousers.This suit is easy to hide and easy to move.After all, not everyone is as refined as Joseph, or Joseph's overly refined attire does not fit the atmosphere of this weird game.

As for the dress?

It looks good in clothes, but trapped in a place like this, playing endless dangerous "games", who would care to dress up?

Dressing up beautifully means being conspicuous, and it also means that actions are cumbersome.Qiao Yan always chooses the clothes that are most convenient for action or escape when performing actions that she considers to be dangerous.

"A lady should have a dress that fits well."

The supervisor in the appearance of a beautiful boy sighed slightly, then put the truth collection in his hand aside, and he stood up from the sofa.

The moment he stood up, Qiao Yan's nerves tensed for a moment.

Her eyes followed Joseph all the time, observing his actions, not daring to move away.

She saw Joseph walking towards the innermost room with his back to her, he opened the door of the room, and then turned to look at her:

"follow me."

Under the gaze of his pair of faint blue eyes, Qiao Yan walked towards him with her tingling scalp, and then stopped beside him.

The room opened by Joseph is an obvious dressing room, with a tall wardrobe and a dressing mirror that is one person high.

On the display stand in front of the mirror, there is a very gorgeous skirt, dark blue as the main color, the skirt is white, and the skirt is embroidered with white roses...

The whole skirt is elegant and gorgeous, mostly decorated with ribbon folds and lace, full of Rococo style.It is also full of Joseph's aesthetics... This skirt is very consistent with the style of Joseph's clothes.

"It suits you very well, do you want to try it?"

The young man's noble and gorgeous voice was in his ears, and then Qiao Yan took two steps forward - Joseph pushed her gently behind her.

"This... is too expensive, so I don't want it."

Qiao Yan looked at the skirt and was almost dumbfounded: I'm afraid she can only walk in small steps in this skirt...

"It's not expensive, why not give it a try? If it doesn't fit, you can change it."

Joseph was standing right behind her, preventing her from stepping back.

"If you find it difficult to change clothes by yourself, I will serve you."

His chuckling voice seemed to make Qiao Yan's scalp feel even more numb, so she subconsciously replied:

"I can do it alone."

After she said this, she saw Joseph shut her in the room with a satisfied smile.

It seemed that she might not be able to go out without changing into the skirt he had prepared.

Changing clothes in an unfamiliar place, Qiao Yan was very nervous, because she was not familiar with it, so she couldn't feel safe in her heart.

Qiao Yan took off the skirt from the display shelf, and she was a little surprised by the weight of the skirt.Then she discovered why:

The innermost layer of the opened skirt is a pannier made of wire circles. It is because of this pannier that this skirt can be unfolded perfectly.

Qiao Yan naturally didn't want this kind of pannier that was popular in Europe in the Middle Ages.No need to think about it, it's no wonder she can run with this pannier on.So Qiao Yan directly took off the innermost pannier of the skirt. After removing the pannier, the hem of the skirt immediately fell down naturally, without the fullness of the skirt.The dress itself is pretty, and looks good even with the bustle removed.

Apart from the trouble of panniers, Qiao Yan discovered something even more terrifying.
