Text 321 Outside the Lining Chapter: Calling and Responding
"Well, I'm so sorry, I can't let you pass."
An Ning waved her hand excitedly: "Why?!" "She's just here to find her boyfriend, why not let her go.
"It's dangerous there, Chris is an exorcist, you're not."
Is it because of this reason that she was not allowed to go? An Ning patted her chest proudly and said, "Who said I'm not, I'm also a ghost exorcist!" ”
Sean looked at An Ning with obvious doubts, and An Ning looked around, but finally couldn't see the familiar figure.
The little maid who had just sent Chris to the tower returned, and as soon as she saw Anning, a hostility called a woman instantly appeared, she frowned, and her voice became a little mean.
"Who are you? This is the Phillips family, so you're allowed to mess around here, security! ”
As she spoke, she was about to call the security guard outside the door, but was stopped by Sean: "No need, she's Chris's girlfriend, Henry called and told me." ”
Sean looked at An Ning in embarrassment, and comforted her: "Please also ask Miss An Ning to wait in the living room, I think Chris will be back soon, if you are really tired, Charlotte, you take Miss An Ning to the guest room, you must take care of her." ”
The little maid's name is Charlotte, and what An Ning doesn't know is that her surname is also Phillips.
She is Sean's youngest daughter and has been pampered since she was a child, but she has a very special habit of playing the maid.
Sean saw that this was also an opportunity to train her, so he didn't stop her from coming, but now it seems that her maid's mask is about to be lost.
To say that she has a great affection for Chris, it can be said that for these unrestrained and enthusiastic girls, as soon as they meet a handsome teenager, they are naturally immediately carried away by likes and admiration, and their hostility towards other women is also instantly pulled to the highest.
Now when Charlotte heard her father say that An Ning was Chris's girlfriend, her whole person became vigilant, and the willfulness of the little girl was fully revealed.
"Dad, I don't bring it."
She said to her father, "Although I played the role of a maid, I am not a real servant!" I won't be hosting this guest. ”
An Ning felt inexplicable about Charlotte's hostility towards her, not only did she not provoke her, nor did she do anything to hurt her, the first time they met, why did people look at her unpleasantly?
"Charlotte!"
Sean exclaimed angrily, who knew that the girl didn't care about her father at all, spread her slender long legs in white silk, and ran up the stairs with the hem of her skirt, and grimaced at An Ning and Sean around the corner.
"You little bastard!"
Sean expressed his shame at his daughter's incompetence, and he said apologetically to An Ning: "Charlotte, it's too much. ”
An Ning was not led astray, she looked left and right, and still asked persistently, "Take me to see Chris." ”
"But ......"
Sean hesitated again, he carefully looked at An Ning again, and finally refused in his heart: "Chris is the exorcist of the David family, I know very well, otherwise I wouldn't have asked him for help." ”
"But you're different, you're not an exorcist or not, I'm not sure, I'm already worried that Chris is going on an adventure, and please Miss Anning don't mess with me anymore, okay?"
An Ning wanted to say something, but the words were blocked in her mouth, she gritted her teeth, and finally nodded in agreement.
If you want to talk about why she was stubborn, she suddenly changed her mind.
One of the reasons is that he doesn't want to embarrass Sean, after all, he is an elder in front of him, and in country M, respecting elders may not be as important as in her own country, but she is not the kind of person who will tear her face with her elders.
What's more, this elder is not a person he knows well, and he shouldn't be too polite.
Second...... And the main reason.
She was afraid of herself, dragging Chris's hind legs, Chris's exorcism ability can be said to be even more powerful than An Xuan, when An Xuan came to M country to practice, many times it was under Chris's guidance that he could have his current strength.
Now, to put it bluntly, she can only be the most junior exorcist, at most she can learn some content from books, and if she wants to talk about actual combat experience, it is still pitiful.
No matter how worried she was about his safety, she finally chose to believe in Chris's strength, walked to the sofa in the living room, and sat down.
It's just that at this moment, under her buttocks, it doesn't seem to be a soft cushion, but a scorching iron plate, no matter how comfortable she sits, she can't let her heart settle down.
Sean asked another maid to make her a pot of green tea, probably knowing that she was Asian and not used to the taste of black tea.
Time passed minute by minute, the time was almost ten o'clock, but Chris still did not come back, the peace that could not sit still, the uneasiness in her heart was about to burst out of her chest, she suddenly got up from the sofa chair, and said loudly: "I can't wait!" ”
After saying that, she was about to walk out of the living room, but when she had only walked a few steps, she seemed to realize something, turned her head, and asked awkwardly, "Mr. Sean, what is that......?" Where's Chris? ”
Sean saw that the time was not early, and Chris had not come back yet, and he was not at ease, so he could only allow An Ning to go.
"Come with me."
He walked towards the tower with tranquility, the corridor that day, which was so dim at the moment, that Sean didn't seem to be afraid of something, and didn't lead her through the entire corridor, pointing in the direction of the end.
"There is a wooden door at the end, and when it opens, there is a stone path leading to the tower, Miss Anning, I can only send you here."
An Ning didn't care if he sent himself under the tower or not, and walked straight towards that end.
There was the sound of the door closing behind her, and her heart jumped violently as the door closed.
The carpet in the corridor was gray with navy blue lace, a flower of unknown nature bloomed on the carpet, and a few smooth cherubs shuttled among the flowers.
The sconces on the walls emit a dim orange-yellow light, some old oil paintings hang on the walls, the doors in the hallway are some open and some are closed, the open door is not lit in the room, and when you pass by, you can only smell the faint smell of perfume coming from inside, but you don't know what the room looks like.
There was silence all around, and An Ning's hand clutched the clothes on his chest tightly, and he walked towards the end of the corridor step by step.
She wanted to run past, but why couldn't she?
She swallowed, her face wrinkled, the hairs on her back stood up, and this corridor, as if there was no end, seemed so long, so long......
Suddenly! Her eyes suddenly went black, and a large number of images were constantly pouring into her mind!
Chris stood in a clean, well-furnished room, with a creature-cracked wooden floor neatly laid out, a bed of violet sheets, and a light purple veil hanging down above the bed.
On a windowless door, there are several pots of unnamed flowers, which are blooming brilliantly, and under the dark night and orange and yellow lights, there is a different kind of beauty.
For some reason, when I saw these flowers, An Ning's tears couldn't help but flow.
Chris was standing in front of a piano, his eyes lifeless, as if he had lost his soul, staring at the black and white keys on the piano in a daze.
Next second!
Do-come-mi-fa-fa-
Obviously, there was no one in the seat in front of the piano, but An Ning saw that the keys were pressed like this.
Then, as if he was being controlled, the disc in his hand that cracked fell out of his hand and fell to the ground with a clanging sound!
He's walking towards the windowless window, and it looks like he's going to jump off it!
In just a few seconds, all these images entered An Ning's mind, and suddenly, she woke up, and her body was already soaked with sweat!
As if she realized something, the man quickly ran to the window of the hallway and looked to the top of the tower!
The familiar orange-yellow light came out of the window, and you could faintly hear the piano playing!
Chris...... No, Chris!
An Ning literally used all her strength, rushed to the end of the corridor, smashed open the wooden door, and ran recklessly in the direction of the tower!
Tears had filled her eyes, pouring down from the corners of her eyes, and her heart was screaming over there!
"Don't! No! Chris! Wait for me! I'll be there soon! ”
No matter how she saw those images just now, whether they were true or false, she would not allow a 1 percent chance to make this possibility happen!
Absolutely not!
An Ning pushed open the wooden door under the tower, and a stone staircase that swirled upwards appeared in front of her, and when she looked up, she couldn't see the top at all, but she didn't have time to retreat!
She can only move forward!
This staircase was probably the only one she had climbed so long and difficult in her life!
She wasn't much of an athlete, so she wasn't one of those people with the best physical fitness, and as she ran up the stairs, she could feel the soreness of her legs and feet, and her breathing became heavier and heavier.
The image before her was sometimes black, obviously deprived of oxygen, and the whole room at the top of the tower had a window, and there was no window in the whole process of going up the stairs that would allow her to breathe in fresh air.
Smooth music came from the room, this tune, it was familiar, but she couldn't name it.
The person who plays it must be a virtuoso performer.
She gasped for breath, even though her legs were completely sore, and she couldn't stop, tired, plus the sad melody in her ears for a long time, the feeling of tranquility, her body, and her mind were suffering a double blow.
Finally! Her feet reached the last step, and before she could catch her breath, she pushed open the half-hidden door.
Chris's foot had already stepped on the windowsill, and seeing that he was about to lean forward, An Ning shouted in horror: "Don't! ”
She didn't know herself, she was already exhausted, where did she get the strength to run so fast, it was just a matter of an instant, she rushed behind Chris, hugged his body, and the whole person fell backwards!
"Bang!"
Chris's strong body pressed directly against An Ning's body, and she snorted in pain and gasped.
The piano melody in my ears also stopped abruptly in an instant.
Suddenly, a sharp cry came, almost piercing Anning's eardrums!
