"At that time, I had just entered the school and heard that Addison Claire, an internationally renowned expert, had come to our school to give a lecture, and although it was not in line with my major, I had never seen a person who had won many international awards before, so I still went. ”

Xiang Yiting said: "At that time, I wondered why she was wearing sunglasses and a mask, and then I bumped into her by chance when I went to the bathroom, because my major is related to skin, so I chatted with her more." ”

Xiao Tian couldn't help but interrupt: "In other words, you can only be regarded as familiar with her, and you don't have any friendship?!"

"Not really. ”

Xiang Yiting shook her head, frowned slightly, and said: "Addison Claire goes to our school about twice a year, and I also went to listen to her lectures in the future, and I can see that she has a good memory and observation, and she can accurately find my location and recognize me every time." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Tian immediately had the urge to hit his head against the wall: "Speaking of which, you've only met people a few times?"

"In fact, even some of the professors and even the principal of our school couldn't talk to her. Xiang Yiting defended: "I can talk to her a few times, it's already very good!"

"Another point is that although we don't have too deep contact, through a few limited exchanges, I think Addison Claire doesn't want to be as cold as she appears, in fact, she should be a passionate person with a fiery heart!"

Xiang Yiting said with a determined face: "It's just that because of her appearance, she can't release her inner enthusiasm, so I feel very depressed when I talk to her." ”

Xiao Tian took a deep breath, determined not to worry about these trivial matters for the time being, anyway, it was all here, and whether it was successful or not had to try to know.

Although it is said that seeing Addison Claire after entering does not necessarily mean that things will be successful, but if you stop in front of the door, there is no possibility of success.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tian walked to the small manor-like building in front of him, and reached out and pressed the doorbell on the square stone pillar at the door.

However, after pressing several times in succession, only a slight screeching noise can be heard, which is not as effective as a direct knock.

After a while, Xiang Yiting, who followed up, looked at the big lock hanging on the iron fence door, and after some thought, she directly removed the lock, and the iron chain hit the door and made a clanging sound.

With a creaking sound of the door opening, Xiang Yiting pushed the iron door with a little effort, and said, "The last time I came to visit Addison Claire with someone from our school, we waited for an hour and a half for her to come out. ”

"Later, she told us that we should never waste time on unnecessary trivial matters, and since the door is not locked, then just go in, only stupid people will stand stupidly outside the door and wait!"

This kind of strange logic makes Xiao Tian not know what to say, but since Addison Claire said it himself, presumably Xiang Yiting's behavior at this time will not cause the other party's displeasure.

Walking into the courtyard that looked like the last century, with a thick layer of fallen leaves under his feet, Xiao Tian began to look up and down the building, which looked like a condensation of Western styles.

The fountain in the middle of the gate has long since ceased to come out of water, and the sprinkler head is wrapped in a thick layer of rust, and the water surface in the pool is covered with a thick layer of green moss, and the original color is no longer visible.

I couldn't detect it outside the door just now, but when I got closer, I could smell a very bad smell of decay and deterioration, and the surface of the sculpture standing was mottled and I couldn't make out the original appearance, only from the outline and some details of the dress, it should be a Western woman.

In addition, the combination of the missing glass windows, the broken tiles, and the swallow's nest under the eaves makes this place look like a natural horror movie set, and almost every building has a desolate feel.

The feeling that you can vaguely see the original appearance, but you can't really restore it, makes people's hearts feel like a heavy boulder is pressed on it, and even speaking feels like it will destroy the atmosphere.

However, the two of them didn't stay here for too long, because after all, they weren't here for sightseeing, so they had to finish their business.

Xiang Yiting, who had already been here once, naturally took the lead in leading the way, and after she bypassed the fountain in the middle, she did not walk directly towards the interior of the house, but turned to the side to bypass.

Xiao Tian, who followed behind Xiang Yiting, found that after bypassing the main building, he did not see the back garden as he thought, but a building that seemed to give people a very abrupt feeling.

I saw a black iron gate, standing behind the main building, and there were no other buildings around, it looked like it was rising from the ground, and I didn't know where the world behind the door led.

The moment she saw the black iron gate, Xiang Yiting walked straight towards the iron gate without any surprise, and said as she walked: "Actually, it was strange when I first came, this is actually a passage to the underground, and Addison Claire's laboratory is under the ground of the land we are stepping on. ”

Xiao Tian didn't reply, but couldn't help but sigh, do these scientific research geeks like to go underground?!

It's like a grimace, if you don't live in a good villa, you have to transfer the equipment to the basement, Xiao Tian was also very puzzled by this before, but now he feels that this may be a common problem for scientific researchers.

After sighing, Xiao Tian had already followed Xiang Yiting to the iron gate, and after the latter reached out and opened the door, a pitch-black road leading to the underground was revealed, even if it was full of light in the daytime, he couldn't see it clearly at all.

After a slight pause, Xiang Yiting stepped into it first, followed by Xiao Tian, and after stepping into the road leading to Addison Claire's underground laboratory, he casually closed the iron door with a loud bang.

It may not seem like much in the flat ground, but it is a very narrow and dark walkway, and the loud sound in it is like a megaphone installed, and then it is several times higher than the original.

Coupled with the darkness of the environment here, Xiang Yiting's heart was inevitably a little nervous, and at this moment, she suddenly heard this sudden sound like an explosion, which immediately made her involuntarily scream, and her delicate body shook suddenly, and she subconsciously retreated, but suddenly crashed into Xiao Tian's arms.

After a while, Xiao Tian, who had nowhere to put his hands, had no choice but to pat Xiang Yiting's back to show comfort, and then said: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect this door to still have a spring, and it closed itself as soon as I let go." ”

Xiang Yiting also knew that Xiao Tian didn't mean it, and after fleeing from Xiao Tian's arms in a hurry, her heartbeat beat violently like a drum, and after a long exhale, she said: "It's okay, but you must remember my words, and don't be too surprised when you see her." ”
