Click, click, click.

Hodden was intently munching on the snake pear while his mind was racing.

"Someone slapped you on the shoulder?"

Howlen's attention fell on this detail, because it was something he hadn't noticed, and if he thought about the environment in the examination center, assuming that there was a secret door behind the seats, not to mention whether the movement would alarm the rest of the waiting room, just to tap Robben on the shoulder?

This is not a tricky variety show!

"Didn't you ever suspect that I did it secretly?" Hoden suggested a possibility.

"Shhh

In an instant, the whole room was full of murderous aura, and a chilling wave of cold air rolled in, and Robben's emotions were out of control for the second time.

"Hypothetical. This is just a hypothesis. Horden hurriedly said, he could really feel the murderous aura in Robben's eyes, the sharp edge seemed to have condensed, directly on Horden's neck, and it could easily separate the thin layer of skin in his throat at any time, and he could faintly smell blood.

Hoden glanced at Robben with some helplessness, "Suppose you suspect me and turn your head to notice me, then you might be able to capture some details - for example, if the hand that slapped you was also slapping me." These details can only be seen from the perspective of others. ”

Robben's breath was a little unsteady, and he held his breath for a moment before he regained control of his emotions and stared at Hoden angrily, "I didn't notice. ”

Robben had no idea that Hoden might make such a boring joke. But now it seems that he has also missed the opportunity to find out more about the truth.

"Claws. Robben then added.

"What?" said Holden.

"That's a claw, not a hand. "I could feel the sharp, sharp nails, and the rough texture was more like a claw. ”

"Wow. Hodden sighed, took another bite of the snake pear, and chewed it slowly.

In the case of claws, then the situation is even more fantastic.

True or not—even Robben's delusions—Hoden's unwavering belief that delusions and hallucinations can also find their roots, like nightmares—so what does the appearance of the claws really mean?

Monster?

Monster?

Devil?

Faintly, Hodden was not afraid, but excited, always feeling that there should be some secret behind the matter. There are more secrets hidden in the continent of Norsness than you think.

The same goes for the voyeur perspective.

In the waiting room of the St. Peter's Examination Center, Robben was unable to find any clues from the sconces, which were just ordinary lampshades.

Because of the angle, Robben unexpectedly noticed a small hole in the back of a lampshade, about the size of two fingers, shrouded in the projection of the light, and it was difficult to detect the abnormality.

But if it was all there was to it, Robben would not have been frightened, at most it was just an accident, and the problem was that Robben noticed an eye in the hole, which was observing the movement in the waiting room, gently turning in the dark light and shadow, which made people shudder.

Eyeball. Paw. Add to that the eerie atmosphere of the entire examination center.

In every way, Robben could feel the cold that permeated fear and timidity, and it burrowed little by little into the blood vessels and bone marrow along the pores.

"You say, is there someone in the tailor's shop watching us, just covered by those hangers and clothes?"

At the meeting on the day of the entrance exam, Hoden mentioned that perhaps this time the seriousness of the matter is beyond imagination, including the missing Samuel and those who are pursuing the truth, they may be in danger, and they must be careful.

Robben didn't dispute that, and he agreed, but Robben didn't pay enough attention to it, after all, he was a recent high school graduate, and he hadn't really experienced death threats, so he couldn't understand what "danger" looked like.

Until today.

When Robben noticed that the eyeballs behind the hole were slowly turning, and the claws on his right shoulder, the kind of horror and weirdness came to his face, and all the hairs on his body stood up.

At this time, the dangerous edge was directly attached to the surface of the skin, goosebumps stood in full swing, and the straightened nerves were never able to relax.

Robben even began to worry about the tailor's shop, whether their every move was exposed to the watchman's view.

"Tailor shop, I don't think there should be. Hodden spoke his mind.

Robben was a little relieved, and Holden added, "But who knows? Maybe it's just a little more hidden, and we haven't found out." But I don't think they're the point. ”

Robben's brows furrowed, and he exploded instantly, "Someone is secretly observing us, and may even be following us and chasing us, but that's not the point?

Emotions beneath the surface of the iceberg are fluctuating, not only because his life is in danger, but also because he is getting closer to Samuel's truth.

Obviously, Robben was faced with a major sense of frustration after the previous visit had found nothing in the past, and it was inevitable that there was some urgency when the visit found a definite anomaly.

"Your question: why are they watching us?" Hodden didn't go any further, "With the resources we have right now, it's very difficult to find out who is watching us, or who is behind the tailor shop and the examination room. ”

Robben clenched his fists again, and his cold aura spread out in full swing.

"What's more, if they do send killers to hunt us down now, what do you think we have a chance of winning?" said Hoden calmly.

The cold words poured directly on Robben's head like a bucket of ice water.

Robben's temperament became more and more awe-inspiring, and his gaze slammed into Hoden like a blade, as if he was condemning Hoden's cowardice and cowardice.

But Hodden didn't intend to "justify" himself, but stuffed the remaining snake pear into his mouth, chewed it carefully, felt the sweetness on the tip of his tongue, and then suddenly stood up.

Robben's gaze followed Hoden, staring at Hoden for some reason, and the first reaction in his mind was "what's going on".

But not wanting to, Hoden strode around Robben and walked straight in the direction of the kitchen, adjusting the flame on the stove to a minimum.

Robben was no longer surprised, after the extreme of absurdity and astonishment, no matter what Hoden did, he didn't feel the need to make a fuss, just watched the "man who cooked with all his heart" busy in the kitchen.
