QT: The Rescue Of The Miserable Bigshots -
Chapter 88 - 4.11
Chapter 88: 4.11
Somehow, Jiang Jiamian recalled the beginning of the story that Naino had told twice - in an old manor in the dark forest, there was a man who had been sitting in a wheelchair all year round...
Jiang Jiamian silently glanced behind him. The rugged dirt road ended at his feet, at the edge of the forest. It was indeed impossible for the car to drive further in.
The forest in front of them was tall and dense, and there was no road ahead. Only in the wider tree space, and based on the slanting direction of the weeds, could he vaguely see the traces of someone coming in and out.
"I’m sorry, Mr. Jiang Jiamian, we can only send you here. Dr. Yuan will not allow us to step into the forest. The only way left is for you and Naino to go in by yourself."
The two staff members watched helplessly. Naino walked into the forest with Jiang Jiamian in his arms, but they had no intention of following.
Naino held Jiang Jiamian over the weeds and gradually went deeper into the forest.
The figures of the two people quickly disappeared into the shadows of the trees behind them.
This forest looks like it has existed for a long time. There are towering trees that are as straight as small towers, and there are also clammy trees with winding and twisted branches and leaves in shapes that resemble a ghost.
It was still daytime at this time, but the dense branches and leaves almost blocked most of the light, giving the entire forest a dark, airtight, and oppressive feeling.
In the grass, insects chirped intermittently, one after another.
The dark green leaves seemed to be dripping with water, full of moisture, and thick tree wax even flowed on many wet tree trunks.
Jiang Jiamian feels that in a place like this, going deep once in a while and experiencing nature may give people a feeling of novelty.
But if you live in such a place for a long time, you will definitely become a psychopath.
"Master, don’t be afraid." Naino felt the tightness in his arms, lowered his eyes, and saw Jiang Jiamian’s eyes looking around, then comforted him in a low voice, "We will get there soon, Naino will hold you tight all the way. Master just needs to stay in Naino’s arms."
Jiang Jiamian was held in his arms without speaking.
Naino walked for an unknown amount of time.
Between the lush branches and leaves, Jiang Jiamian vaguely saw something appearing in front of him.
The manor!
First the forest, now the manor!
Now, Jiang Jiamian could no longer comfort himself that the story was just Naino’s random story material.
As Naino continued to move forward through the gap in the trees, the manor became clearer and more complete, displayed in front of Jiang Jiamian.
It was an old-looking manor, with green stone walls covered with green plants and moss.
The outermost part of the manor is a rusty iron gate. Through the gap in the iron gate, he could directly see the two-story building inside.
The building is equally old, with unknown dark green branches and leaves scattered around. Even the window sash is wrapped with vines, making it almost impossible to see the light.
Squeak!
Naino raised his foot and pushed the iron gate, and the iron gate opened inwards with a somewhat harsh sound as if it had been used infrequently.
There was no lock.
"Dear master, welcome to Naino’s old home."
Naino’s tone was obviously brisk, and he picked up Jiang Jiamian and walked quickly towards the house.
The door was pushed open by him easily, it was still unlocked.
"Naino, you’re back."
As soon as the door opened, a low, emotionless voice suddenly sounded in the dark room.
Jiang Jiamian originally thought it was already dark in the forest, but when he entered the house, it was even darker than outside.
And there are people inside, it’s so dark, but they don’t turn on the lights.
Jiang Jiamian tried to look towards the source of the sound, but he only saw a blurry figure sitting in front of him, and he could not distinguish the other person’s facial features at all.
"I’m back." Naino said.
Jiang Jiamian was surprised for a moment. This was the first time he heard Naino call himself "I", instead of ’Naino’ like before.
"Why don’t you put down our most distinguished guest? Hurry up and pour a cup of hot tea for him to get rid of the cold and humidity."
Jiang Jiamian heard the figure on the opposite side say.
"Well, you’re right."
Naino really put Jiang Jiamian down slowly. In the darkness, he started to walk in the opposite direction, but after taking two steps, he remembered something and turned around, looking at Jiang Jiamian, "Master, don’t be afraid, Naino will be back soon."
The black figure followed, "Dear guest, don’t be nervous, I am here to accompany you."
"Guest, please take a seat."
Jiang Jiamian saw the other party waving to him.
Jiang Jiamian couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He really couldn’t tell what the other person looked like, what was wearing, even whether was tall or short, fat or thin, okay?
Living in such an eccentric place where nothing looks like is alive enough, you can’t even turn on a light. Is it because there is no electricity at home, or is it because you are too stingy about paying the electricity bill?
Jiang Jiamian kept his complaints in his heart but did not move his feet.
After all, he is an unsociable person who is afraid of strangers, and he is still in such a dark and terrible place.
There seemed to be a sound of something rubbing against the ground. Jiang Jiamian saw that the person in front of him and the chair under him were moving closer.
Jiang Jiamian’s pupils suddenly shrank, a man in a wheelchair!
Sure enough, he appeared!
The forest, the old manor, and the man in the wheelchair, everything is the same as in Nino’s story.
When Jiang Jiamian was shocked, the man in the wheelchair had already driven in front of him, slowly stretched out a hand towards him, and said in a very polite tone, "Hello, guest, I am the creator of Naino, you can call me Dr. Yuan."
Getting closer, Jiang Jiamian finally saw the man’s face clearly.
However, this face almost shocked Jiang Jiamian. He wanted to bend over immediately and take a closer look to make sure that he was not dazzled.
