Kaidan Game Train: Abide Rule or Die!

Chapter 156: Trapped in a Secret Room

Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Trapped in a Secret RoomXu Huo remained motionless, his breathing unchanged, as he faced the puppet.

After about ten seconds, the puppet twisted its head and clattered back upstairs with its tapping steps. Before long, the sound of chopping meat echoed from above.

In silence, Xu Huo returned to the ground floor, climbed the stairs and looked up at Tao Chengxin who was stuck on the corner of the ceiling; he gestured her to come down with a crooked finger.

Tao Chengxin landed lightly like a cat, and in the faint light from the window, she inspected Xu Huo’s expression. Finding that his emotions hadn’t fluctuated in the slightest, she pulled a self-mocking smile.

The two avoided the meat-chopping puppet on the second floor and returned to the fifth. Xu Huo kicked open the door to one of the rooms. It was empty, with no signs of the bedding being used.

Tao Chengxin

"It’s not hard to recognize you, get the scroll over here and I’ll tell you," Xu Huo offered the deal.

Tao Chengxin stared at him silently, her gaze flickering with dangerous light.

But Xu Huo seemed oblivious, adding, "We are allies now."

He had recognized her that morning at the door of the Yongxing Clubhouse; she had the same scent as the "female ghost," likely from something she applied to her face which the Cleansing Potion hadn’t completely removed.

"I know you’re strapped for cash, otherwise you wouldn’t dare to rob a place without even entering," he said. "Afraid Yongxing Clubhouse will make you pay up?"

Since Yongxing could contract out a train’s kitchen and open a shop inside the game, of course, it feared no player defaults, even if the player had no money, they surely had their ways of collecting debts.

"Yongxing rips off customers with ruthlessness, and you’re not far behind, why bother being a player? Consider switching to business instead."
