Gu Rou took out a piece of silk black cloth and gently covered Shen An's eyes.

The cold touch made him tremble.

Then he felt his wrists and ankles being restrained, and he was trapped in this dark basement again.

Shen An breathed a sigh of relief when Gu Rou's footsteps gradually faded away.

He whispered: "Fortunately, I have practiced my acting skills recently and got the truth out."

He asked: "System, is there any way to fix this plot?"

The system replied: "Host, as long as you find the real key person-another Shen An, you can fix the plot line."

Shen An nodded: "I understand. Use the skill to unlock."

As the skill was activated, the restraint began to loosen.

Shen An carefully took off the blindfold and looked around.

"Let's go, system."

Shen An whispered, "We have to find a way to leave here before Gu Rou finds out."

Shen An carefully checked every corner of the basement and finally found a vent.

"System, do you think I can get out of here?"

Shen An asked in a low voice.

The system analyzed it: "Host, I measured it. Although it's a bit crowded, it should be possible."

But be careful not to make too much noise. "

Shen An nodded and began to dismantle the guardrail of the vent.

The narrow space made him feel a little suffocated, and the cold metal touch made him shudder.

Shen An gritted his teeth and moved forward bit by bit.

The dust choked him and made him want to cough, but he held back his voice.

Finally, he saw a ray of light.

"Almost there!" Shen An whispered excitedly.

He sped up and finally came to the exit of the vent.

Carefully pushed open the fence.

Shen An finally climbed out and found himself in a corner of the backyard of the house.

It was late at night and there was silence all around.

Shen An looked around vigilantly to make sure no one had spotted him.

"System, where should we go next?" Shen An asked softly.

The system thought for a while: "Host, we have to find a safe place to hide first, and then find a way to find the real Shen An. "

Shen An moved cautiously in the yard and suddenly noticed several guards standing in different positions.

To his horror, the guards' eyes were dull, as if they had lost their self-awareness.

They patrolled mechanically, but there was no light in their eyes.

"System."

Shen An whispered.

"Did you see it? These people seem to be controlled."

The system analyzed: "Host, the situation is worse than we thought."

"It seems that as Gu Rou's mastery of this small world increases, her power is increasing."

Shen An felt a chill: "You mean...she can control other people's consciousness now?"

The system confirmed: "Yes, host, we must be extra careful."

"Gu Rou's ability may be far beyond our imagination."

Shen An nodded: "I understand. "

He carefully avoided the dull guards and moved towards the wall of the yard.

Shen An came to the wall and looked at the several-meter-high wall.

"System, is there any other buff that can be exchanged?" he asked in a low voice.

The system replied: "There is a climbing skill, but it requires 50 points. "

Shen An hesitated for a moment, but soon made up his mind: "Buy it!"

Now is not the time to feel sorry for the points.

As the points were deducted, Shen An felt that his body suddenly became light and flexible.

He took a deep breath and began to climb.

To his surprise, the process was extremely smooth.

He easily found every fulcrum.

In a few seconds, Shen An climbed to the top of the wall.

He looked around carefully, and after confirming that he was not discovered, he lightly climbed over the top of the wall.

When he landed, there was no sound.

Shen An hurriedly left the vicinity of the manor.

He hurriedly bought a white T-shirt, jeans and a baseball cap in a small roadside shop and quickly changed them.

He lowered the brim of his hat and walked on the street as inconspicuously as possible.

He walked aimlessly on the street, and finally found a small hotel that did not require registration.

After entering the room, Shen An finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"System, how much time do you think we have?" he asked.

The system replied: "It's hard to say, host. Gu Rou's erosion of this world may be faster than we thought. "

After entering the hotel room, Shen An did not immediately relax his vigilance.

He carefully checked every corner of the room to make sure there were no surveillance devices or other suspicious things.

Sitting on the bed, Shen An took a deep breath and asked calmly: "System, what is the situation now?"

The system replied: "Host, I need some time to restore the positioning function. Gu Rou'sThe interference is stronger than expected. "

Shen An nodded, his expression calm: "I understand. We should make good use of this time."

He stood up, walked to the window, and carefully observed the street outside.

Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by an unusual movement.

In the shadow of the street corner, he seemed to see several strange red tentacles wriggling.

But the moment he pushed open the window, the strange scene disappeared without a trace.

"Am I seeing it wrong?"

Shen An murmured to himself, rubbing his tired eyes.

The system reminded: "Host, you haven't had a good rest for a long time."

"Maybe it's an illusion caused by fatigue."

Shen An nodded, but there was still a trace of uneasiness in his heart: "I hope so."

He carefully checked the window again, and after confirming that there was no abnormality, he slowly drew the curtains.

The long-term tension and running around made Shen An feel physically and mentally exhausted.

"System, I have to take a break. "

Shen An said, lying on the simple hotel bed.

System response: "Okay, host. I will stay alert and wake you up immediately if there is any abnormality. "

Shen An nodded and closed his eyes.

In his sleep, the strange red color was still looming.

As if foreshadowing something...

Shen An found himself in a garden shrouded in mist.

The flowers around him were an unnatural crimson, as if they were dripping blood.

The air was filled with a sweet and decadent smell.

Suddenly, Gu Rou appeared in front of him.

She was wearing a blood-red dress, beautiful and dangerous.

"You shouldn't run away."

Gu Rou said calmly.

"Come to me."

She reached out and took Shen An's hand.

He felt dizzy and full of conflicting emotions.

Fear, desire, resistance, and a hint of morbid attachment.

Gu Rou coaxed: "My love, you are safe only when you are with me. "

Shen An ran in his dream, shuttling through the dark maze-like corridors.

No matter where he hid, Gu Rou's cold eyes seemed to be everywhere.

On the walls, ceilings, and even in the air, there seemed to be her eyes.

"My love, don't run away again."

Gu Rou's voice echoed around.

"You know you can't escape."

Shen An ran desperately, but the end of every road was a dead end.

He leaned against the wall in despair, gasping for breath.

Suddenly, a pale hand stretched out from the darkness and grabbed his wrist.

"Found you." Gu Rou smiled and appeared in front of him.

Gu Rou gently stroked his cheek: "Be good, go home with me."

The next moment, the scene changed. Shen An found himself being dragged into the familiar cold basement.

She took out the familiar ribbon and slowly approached Shen An's eyes.
