MTL - Monument of Life and Death-Chapter 1089 a scam
Jasmine took advantage of the two seconds of silence to think about the meaning of Xia Ni's words.
"Are you suspecting something?"
"I...I'm still worried about my sister," Xia Ni put his hand into his pocket again, and when he retracted his hand back, the little red-haired snake was already neatly coiled in his palm. He looked at the snake and said under his breath , "Baby, what do you say?..."
Jasmine, who couldn't see all this, was taken aback.
"Huh?" The corners of Jasmine's mouth twitched, "What did you say?"
"Huh? Oh... sorry," Xia Ni scratched her head blankly, "I'm talking to my bug."
Jasmine breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, a person appeared at the corner of the corridor. The person stood at the end of the corridor for a while, then took a step and walked towards the two of them.
Jasmine sensed the sound of his footsteps, and turned her head gently.
The footsteps are getting closer...
"Xiao Kong, it's you..."
Xia Ni's voice revealed the identity of that person.
Jasmine's muscles relaxed a bit, she pursed her lips, and revealed a dignified smile.
"Jasmine is in charge, Xia Ni," Xiao Kong Chong and the two nodded slightly, "How is it? Are you hungry? You came here just after landing, you probably haven't had time to eat..."
"It's okay," Jasmine quickly waved her hand, "I heard that Grandpa Qiao woke up, is he okay? There is nothing serious about his body, right?"
Xiao Kong bit his lower lip, and heaved a long sigh.
Jasmine and Xia Ni immediately became nervous.
Could it be...Could it be...
"It's a long story," Xiao Kong said in a heavy tone, "Well, we arranged a meal in the cafeteria downstairs, you two will go to eat with me first, let's talk while eating... By the way, I remember when you came here , there are three in total..."
"Ah, Sister Long has gone inside," Xia Ni pointed in the direction of the ward, "She plans to take a look at Grandpa Qiao's situation."
"Is that so..." Xiao Kong spoke thoughtfully.
"Otherwise, I'll go and call her back," Xia Ni said and was about to run over, "Sister Long, Long..."
"No need," Xiao Kong grabbed Xia Ni's arm, "Well, you two go first, and I will notify the people in the ward, and that elder sister will arrive soon."
Xia Ni looked at Jasmine, but Jasmine couldn't see his eyes, so naturally she couldn't respond.
Jasmine didn't have any expression on her face. She blinked those pure and empty eyes, and she seemed to have a feeling of innocence.
"By the way, Xiao Kong," Jasmine asked after a while, "Where's Brother Jun?"
The moment he heard the name, a trace of fear flashed across Xiao Kong's face.
Xia Ni looked at Jasmine, then at Xiao Kong, trying to figure out what the two of them were thinking at this moment.
"Brother Jun?" Xiao Kong smiled hoarsely, "Why did Master Jasmine remember to ask him..."
"I remember you used to run around behind Brother Jun," Jasmine said with a smile, "Why is it just you this time?"
"Oh, how long ago was that?" Xiao Kong stared into Jasmine's eyes, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of scrutiny, "I can work by myself now, and I can't always Being a follower, isn't it?"
Jasmine's ears moved.
She was judging the details of the person in front of her based on his tone of voice.
And he, guilty of confirming that Jasmine's eyes are indeed blind...
Obviously already blind, why does it feel like this little girl has become more sensitive?
Is it an illusion?
"Well... That's right," Jasmine pouted her lips slightly, showing a pure girlish smile, "Then let's go down and eat first, I seem to be really hungry..."
"Uh...well, okay..." Xiao Kong hesitantly led the two towards the elevator.
Xia Ni followed behind without knowing why, feeling like her CPU was going to burn dry.
The conversation between the two of them just now seemed to be very meaningful.
But I can't figure out where the deep meaning is reflected!
The three came to the elevator, Xiao Kong pressed the down button, and the three waited quietly for the elevator to arrive.
When the elevator car stopped in front of the three of them with a ding, Jasmine suddenly turned around and gave Xia Ni a coquettish cry.
"Oh, it's too bad," Jasmine said anxiously, she didn't look like she was pretending, "Xia Ni, I suddenly remembered that I forgot my phone with Aunt Obscure."
"Huh?" Xia Ni glanced at Xiao Kong who was paying attention in a panic, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said pretending to be calm, "Then... what should I do?"
A sly smile flashed across Jasmine's mouth.
Fortunately, this kid got his own signal, and didn't ask stupid questions like "Why is your phone with her?"
"The elevators are here..." Jasmine muttered sullenly, and then said with a bright voice, "Then go and help me with my phone, I'm hungry, I'll go down and have something to eat, and then I'll wait for you guys down there .”
"OK, all right."
"It's just a mobile phone, and I'm not in a hurry to use it." Xiao Kong on the side blocked the elevator with one hand and prevented it from closing. After waiting for a long time, he couldn't stand it any longer. .”
"That can't be done," Xia Ni rebuffed straight away, "You don't know, Sister Long is just forgetful. If I hadn't reminded her, she might have left Jasmine's phone in the ward..."
"...Is the relationship between your sister Oboro and Jasmine so close?"
"There's no other way, it's the only way." Jasmine groped into the elevator and said with a smile, "Xiao Kong, let's go first."
Xiao Kong looked at Jasmine hesitantly, then turned his head to look at Xia Ni.
"Then I'm going back." Xia Ni turned and walked away excitedly, "Jasmine, you should eat more..."
"Alright, definitely."
Xiao Kong walked slowly into the elevator and stood beside Jasmine.
The elevator doors closed slowly, and there was a slight tremor under the feet, and the elevator began to run.
Jasmine put her hand into her pocket, and silently turned off the volume of the phone.
She heard a very small sneer in her ear.
"What's in your pocket?" Xiao Kong's voice changed, "Is it a mobile phone?"
Jasmine tightly squeezed the phone in her hand, without saying a word.
It’s okay, it’s a good thing that Xia Ni ran away just now.
If you handle it yourself, you will be much more comfortable.
"As expected of Jasmine," Xiao Kong's voice moved to his right rear, probably leaning on the rear handrail of the elevator, "It's really not easy..."
Jasmine did not expect that this person would take off his disguise so quickly.
"Isn't it simple?" Jasmine tilted her head, "I think I'm quite simple."
"Jane is not simple, anyway, it's useless to talk about it now," Xiao Kong stood up, and leaned into Jasmine's ear and said, "I know, you are already blind, and you still pretend to be fearless For whom?"
"Oh?" Jasmine laughed, "Am I faking it?"
Xiao Kong wanted to say something else.
There was another tremor under the feet of the two of them.
The elevator stopped.
The destination is here.
