Chapter 150 - Why are you here? (1/2)

Although Ariana mentioned about Alexander in the past, Chen Nan has never officially met him. Either the timing was not right, or there would be a mission that interrupted their plan. Out of all the scenarios that they could've met, Chen Nan never thought that it would be like this.

After bandaging Alexander's wounds, he pulled the blanket over his half-naked body. In his condition, Chen Nan does not advise him to make any large movements. Ariana chewed on her lips several times when she tried to dig information out of him.

Unfortunately, Alexander kept his mouth shut and kept avoiding her questions. Eventually, Chen Nan managed to stop her from pestering him. He knew her extremely well that she is always protective over everyone she knew.

When his eyes landed on Alexander earlier, he already noticed that the way he looked at Ariana was a bit different. As a man, he could tell that he definitely has feelings for her. From the way she was acting around him, Chen Nan could tell that she was clueless about his feelings. That is probably why they were this close.

Chen Nan interrupted Ariana and said, ”I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Chen Nan, Ariana's husband. Thank you for saving me earlier.”

Alexander chuckled and coughed lightly. He replied, ”Nice meeting you. I'm Alexander, your crazy wife's... friend. No need to shower me with thanks. I only passed by at the right timing.”

She tilted her head in confusion and crossed her arms, ”What happened? I forgot to ask why Chen Nan was in your room.”

”Let me tell you my part of the story after we had separated earlier. I successfully got past the gates and started to explore the tunnel. For some reason that tunnel split into three paths and I randomly chose one. I'm not exactly sure if my luck was that great, but the route I chose led me to a disgusting room.”

He covered his mouth as if he could still smell the blood from the room. ”The exit was a rectangular, shaped door. Little did I know that I was actually on the damn ceiling of the room. When I looked down, I saw many chopped up pieces of body parts. I'm sure some belonged to humans and others were animal remains.”

She gasped as she listened attentively to his description. Once he mentioned the details that he saw, she confirmed that it was the same room that she was in. When they shared the explicit information, they started to wonder why anyone would create more than one exits or entrances in such a horrific room.

Then, he mentioned how he tried to figure out if this was a psychopathic brutal murder experiment room or for another objective. He continued stating what he remembered before losing consciousness.

”While examining the room, somebody tried to enter the room. The knob turned, and I squatted down behind one of the cabinets. It was a skinny old man who looked probably around eight-five years old. His skin almost shaped every bone in his body.”
