Alien Hotel

"Can you two see the house in front of me?"

Standing in front of the gate of No. 66 Wutong Road, Yu Sheng raised his finger and pointed at the old building in front of him, and said to Hu Li beside him and Irene who was held in Hu Li's arms. "Yes," Hu Li nodded naturally, "It's right in front of you. You can see it when you go out, and you can see it when you come back."

Yu Sheng nodded and looked at Little Red Riding Hood who was coming with him: "Can you see it?"

Little Red Riding Hood opened her eyes wide and looked at the empty space in front of her and a low wall at the end of the clearing. Then she turned to look at Hu Hu and Eileen suspiciously: "Can you two really see it?"

"It seems that you can't see it," Yu Sheng understood the situation as soon as he saw it. "Even if I sent an 'invitation' to you, you can't see it standing here. "Little Red Riding Hood spread her hands.

Yu Sheng began to think.

He is very curious about many things now, about himself, about foreign lands, the Secret Service, and the night valley - including of course the weird mansion he has been living in for the past two months. With a little "necessary research spirit", he invited Little Red Riding Hood when he went home today, wanting to test how weird the "non-existent No. 66 Wutong Road" was.

Now he has preliminary test results.

Hu Li and Eileen can see No. 66 Sycamore Road, but Little Red Riding Hood cannot. Even if she is invited by the "owner of the house", she cannot observe its existence. Yu Sheng thought briefly and found the biggest difference between Beaver, Irene and Little Red Riding Hood.

"So... it should be a question of 'blood'?" He raised his head thoughtfully, his eyes switching between Little Red Riding Hood, Beaver, and Irene.

Hu Li and Eileen both "received" his blood, which established a subtle "connection" between him and them. It was through this connection that the two of them were able to detect him. "Resurrection from the dead" - Little Red Riding Hood has never had this experience.

This is the most likely reason that Yu Sheng can think of now.

Little Red Riding Hood didn't notice the change in Yu Sheng's expression. She was looking around curiously at this time.

The sunset was gradually setting, and in the shadows of the buildings on the roadside, the outlines of wolves appeared and disappeared. The wolves paid attention to the movements of the entire block, acting as the girl's eyes and ears.

She discovered one thing: from the moment she entered Wutong Road, the closer she got to this open space in the depths, the fewer pedestrians around her. And when she came to the open space where "No. 66 Wutong Road" was located, the surrounding people were... There were no passersby at all.

It was as if there was an invisible dispersing force preventing ordinary people from approaching this mansion.

However, even her wolves were unable to detect how this power worked. The "environment" of this entire neighborhood was so "clean", as clean as a vacuum under the vision of the extraordinary power.

At this moment, Little Red Riding Hood suddenly noticed the gaze falling on her. She immediately turned her head to look, only to see Yu Sheng looking here seriously. The girl suddenly felt a little awkward: "Um...what's the matter?"

Then she saw Yu Sheng stretched out his hand directly: "Want a bite?" Little Red Riding Hood: "...Huh?"

"Blood, Irene and Hu Li have both been exposed to my blood, and some changes have occurred since then, and now they can still see No. 66 Wutong Road," Yusheng explained seriously, "So I thought about it I wonder if you want to try it too, just as an experiment...

Little Red Riding Hood's expression became visibly weird, and she even took half a step back. Her eyes were like those of a wolf-dog with explosive hair. After confirming that Yu Sheng was really just out of pure "research spirit", she softened a little, but she still had a look on her face. Rejection: "No!"

"It won't hurt your stomach." Yu Sheng actually expected the other party's reaction. After all, he invited others to take a bite of him. This thing sounded a bit sudden, but he still wanted to try again, "You don't want to What does No. 66 Wutong Road look like from the outside?”

"I'm not a cat, why should I be so curious!" Little Red Riding Hood took another half step back and turned to look at Huli and Eileen, "Why does he think that one thing is all the same?"

Erin, who was in Hu Li's arms, moved slightly to make sure there was no one around. She finally had a chance to speak: "He's just like this. He comes up with ideas as soon as they come up. What's the 'research spirit'? You Ignore him."

"How do you say this?" Yu Sheng was dissatisfied. "Am I so serious?"

Irene didn't say anything, just quietly exuding the fragrance of lotus root in Hu Li's arms.

Yu Sheng: "..."

"Forget it if you don't like it." After two or three seconds of awkward silence, Yu Sheng smiled dryly and waved to Little Red Riding Hood, then walked to the door of the house. But as soon as he opened the lock and was about to open the door and go in, he thought of something again and turned to the side. Stepping aside, he called to the fox girl who was following behind him, "Come here and see if you can open this door."

"Ah? Okay." Hu Li was stunned for a moment, but nodded, stepped forward and grabbed the handle of the door.

With a click, the unlocked entrance door was easily pushed open.

But in Little Red Riding Hood's eyes, a door appeared out of thin air in the open space, suspended near the low wall with many abstract graffiti.

"Okay, at least this will make it easier for you and Irene to come out and go in. You don't have to ask me to open the door." Yu Sheng was relieved when he saw this. After learning that No. 66 Wutong Road is a building that outsiders cannot observe or enter, After his "foreign land", he produced many Worries about details include but are not limited to the inability to deliver food to his door, the inability to deliver home appliances, the inability to leave an address when shopping online, and the inability for the two residents at home to come and go freely, etc., but now he is relieved—— At least one of the troubles is gone.

"Come on, come in and sit down," Yu Sheng said with a smile on his face and stretched out his hand to Little Red Riding Hood, "I'll cook later and have dinner at home as a thank you for spending the whole day shopping with Hu Li and Irene."

"It's nothing, you already helped me write half of my homework." Little Red Riding Hood said, but she still accepted the invitation and walked into this mansion that did not exist in the real world.

Yu Sheng turned on the light in the living room. The bright light and disc player dispersed the dimness of the evening and quickly warmed up the deserted atmosphere in the room. lamp

Toward the kitchen.

Then he quickly packed up the things he had bought, took out the ingredients for that night from the shopping bag, told Little Red Riding Hood to find a place to sit, and turned around to leave.

Little Red Riding Hood looked around cautiously with a hint of uneasiness and curiosity.

This was her second visit to the place, and this time as an "invited guest."

She rarely visits other people's homes, and her visits to foreign lands far exceed those of stepping into other people's homes. But on the other hand, she clearly knows that this ordinary-looking house is actually an "exotic land." ", today's "guest"... is essentially an exotic adventure.

This is really the weirdest "adventure" experience she has had since she became a detective in the spirit world. There is no weird and twisted scenery, no pervasive pollution, no phantoms disguised as teammates, only bright lights and a warm environment, a gentle and friendly demon fox station Next to him, a joyful puppet was running to turn on the TV, while the entity from the alien world...the powerful entity that could swallow "hunger" alive was cooking in the kitchen.

She can even go to the dining table to do her homework for a while while waiting for the meal to be cooked.

There were so many violations that she didn't even know which one to complain about first.

But the noisy Erin soon left her no time to think too much - the whirring noises of the little doll came from the living room: "Let's watch TV! The TV in the living room is bigger than the one in the dining room!"

"I need to make up for my homework," Little Red Riding Hood shook her head and replied casually as she walked towards the table, "I still have half a book left!"

"Hey, you humans are so tired." Erin, who had climbed onto the sofa, suddenly sighed loudly, "Fox, are you coming?"

Hu Li waved his hand and strolled towards the kitchen: "I want to see if my benefactor needs help...

She just walked into the kitchen, and then opened the door and walked out within two minutes, holding a braised chicken leg in her hand and whistled as she walked.

Little Red Riding Hood, who had just started doing her homework, saw this scene and looked surprised: "Why did you come out again?"

"I was kicked out. My benefactor said that I ate all the ingredients and couldn't stew the meat after eating them all." Hu Li said innocently, then he raised the chicken leg in his hand like a show off, "But my benefactor You gave me a chicken leg. Do you want to eat it?”

Little Red Riding Hood hesitated: "Well...I'll..."

Hu Li quickly took the chicken legs back and said, "If you don't want to eat them, I will eat them all."

little Red Riding Hood:""

A hint of the aroma of cooking has already escaped from the kitchen at this time, whetting people's appetite.

Little Red Riding Hood thought for a while, reached into her bag, took out her cell phone, and dialed a number.

"It's me. I won't go back for dinner tonight. I'll eat at a friend's house. Hey, I'm a new acquaintance. It's safe and sound. I'll tell you when I get back. I'll definitely be home before ten o'clock. After hanging up the phone, Little Red Riding Hood turned her head. He saw Hu Li staring directly at him - and at the same time, he didn't stop whistling the drumstick.

"You can't eat this." Little Red Riding Hood subconsciously covered her phone. She didn't know why she said such a thing.

Hu Li didn't pay attention to this, and just asked curiously: "Were you in contact with your family just now?" "Yes."

"Are they your parents?"

Little Red Riding Hood's expression was a little unnatural: "Well...my parents died early, it was because of other people in the family."

"Oh," Hu Li nodded. Little Red Riding Hood didn't know what the fox girl was thinking about these few seconds, but she suddenly handed over the chicken drumstick that was almost finished, "Would you like to take a bite? Can take a small bite.

little Red Riding Hood:"..?"

She felt that it was still difficult for her to understand these... "weird people" living in a foreign land.
