Chapter 248
After passing through the office area, Shen Ge and Fang Yaori once again arrived at the very spacious monitoring room, which contained no less than a thousand surveillance screens.
“Gulp.”
Just then, a strange sound caught Shen Ge’s attention.
But this time, it wasn’t the eerie’s characteristic swallowing noise—it came from Fang Yaori’s stomach. Shen Ge initially worried that his Weirdo cells were acting up again, but Fang Yaori said somewhat embarrassedly, “Sorry, Detective Shen. I haven’t eaten anything all night, my stomach just… acted up.”
It had indeed been an entire night since Shen Ge first met Fang Yaori. Plus, Fang Yaori had just completed his heterization, so feeling hungry wasn’t surprising.
As for Shen Ge, although he had eaten with Fang Mingyue before being pulled into the dream world—and had surprisingly consumed ten portions of food—his stomach felt like a bottomless pit ever since that strange “hunger” sensation appeared in his body.
“Let’s head upstairs. There’s a dining room up there,” Shen Ge said, motioning for Fang Yaori to follow. They exited through the small door in the monitoring room, crossed the long corridor, and entered the stairwell.
“Dining room?” Fang Yaori was bewildered, wondering how Shen Ge knew this place so well.
But when he followed Shen Ge up to the second floor, Fang Yaori froze. The corridors on the left and right of the stairwell each led to a different dining room. The eerie part was that he felt a strange sense of déjà vu, as if he had been here himself before.
