The Psychopath Meets Indigo
Chapter 24 - Other Dimensions

We can never hide forever. If no one knew, it could be that other creatures knew.

Xiao opened his eyes slowly after a long period of slumber. She was greeted with a warm embrace from Chan who was asleep. The girl seemed to be unaware of his actions.

'Basically girls, the pretenders are scared in anything. But he continued to start, Xiao murmured inwardly as he looked at Chan's face which was pressing on his shoulder.

Xiao tried to move his body, but Chan even tightened his embrace. The girl seemed to consider Xiao her teddy bear that should not be separated.

Xiao felt butterflies flying in his stomach. His hand slowly raised Chan's chin. The girl still closed her eyes, her lashes became clearer and beautified her beautiful face.

Xiao's eyes fell on Chan's lips. Without lipstick but alluring. Xiao began to bring his lips closer to Chan's natural pink lips.

"Xiao!" chirping Chan who suddenly woke up, then pushed Xiao's face slowly. He was very surprised by the treatment of the blond man before him. Xiao did not say a word, he only spoke through his fixed gaze.

Chan was speechless, he could not resist Xiao's wishes. He stared, and waited for Xiao to get closer. But when the lips of the two almost touched each other, the noise from outside instantly distracted them.

Brak! Prangs!

There was the sound of falling objects, as if someone was intentionally doing it.

"I hope it's not the Taoists!" xiao said as he changed his position to sit down.

Outside Xiao and Chan's room, there was indeed a commotion. Which is none other than Shuwan and his men.

"Quick hand over all the room keys that are here!" shuwan's word to Sontana's innkeeper's grandfather.

The old man was forced to provide a duplicate key. His body was already scarred and bruised by the attacks of the Taoists. Furthermore, Shuwan's bodyguards immediately rushed to check the room in Sontana's inn.

"Quick check all rooms!" screeched Shuwan with a frown. Xiao and Chan who felt that recognizing the voice immediately rushed to escape.

"Xiao! quickly grab all your stuff!" ask Chan, who has tidied up all his belongings.

Xiao tried to check the window, his eyes instantly perfectly rounded when he saw the large number of Taoists. "Jeez Chan, I think we're surrounded!" Xiao stepped back from the window.

"Xiao, I have a way!" added Chan while holding onto Xiao's shoulders.

"What?"

"We can hide into another dimension." Chan's countenance looked serious.

"You mean?" xiao asked with a frown.

"I'll explain later, the important thing is to follow my directions!" chan said with a long sigh. "Xiao, focus on my eyes!" chan's orders, which Xiao immediately obeyed. His eyes were fixed on Chan's irises. In the girl's eyes was a white glint like fine dust shining.

Chequek!

The door of the room opened, Shuwan did not manage to find Xiao and Chan. There was only an empty room before his eyes. Eventually, he returned to search elsewhere.

***

Darkness enveloped the same room, but with a different atmosphere. The walls around seemed to flake off and slimy black. The smell of blood and pessing out pierced the sense of smell.

Xiao who saw the situation was in shock. The atmosphere reminded him of a bald creature that had almost killed him. Xiao demanded an answer to Chan. "What are you doing Chan?"

"We are in another dimension. We can hide here for a while!" answer Chan.

"Xiao, this is one of my other talents" Chan explained briefly.

"What's? why didn't you ever tell me?" Xiao was disappointed.

"Because this talent is dangerous Xiao! I only use it when it's in a precarious state. Like helping you from that pellet-headed creature, and also hiding from Shuwan's men's siege." Chan explained with a dull breath.

"dangerous? but why do you want to do it? this was tantamount to being killed by the Taoists!" reply Xiao.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

The sound of a loud knock on the door made Xiao and Chan stop the debate.

"Xiao, we have to hide!" Chan pulled Xiao's hand, and led her to hide together under the bed.

"Chan, hat!" protesting Xiao who wanted to take his hat accidentally fell off. But he could not take it back.

Cayun. . .

The door opened slowly. The appearance of a creature that was so terrible, that made Xiao and Chan widen their eyes.

The creature was like a spider, long-haired, red-eyed and sizable. He walked in a kayang position, his head upside down.

The creature let out a very loud breathing sound like a person who is asthmatic. Even more terrifying, he could creep up on walls and roofs.

Xiao and Chan were in their hiding place. Sweat began to flood the bodies of the two. Especially when the creature went around the entire corner of the room, as if looking for something. Until the creature stopped when he saw Xiao's hat, he noticed the thing he held for a long time.

"We have to go now, or not at all!" added Chan, then immediately inching slowly out from under the bed. Xiao followed behind. The two of them slipped out of the room.

"Xiao, never let go of my hand!" Chan clasped Xiao's fingers tightly. The girl led the way. He picked up the only candle in the hallway.

"Chan, I think we should find another hiding place before the creature comes out of the room" Xiao suggested with a sweaty temple.

From a distance Xiao and Chan heard a walking sound from the creature they had met earlier. Both of them rushed into the nearest room, which was nothing but a toilet.

"Now what's Chan?" ask Xiao.

"We need to find the key!" Chan replied with an ambiguous answer.

On the other hand, Feng stood restlessly in his covenant place. He was waiting for Hongli to arrive. But Xiao's biological father did not come.

It's early morning. Feng and his men had almost waited all night. The burly man tried to contact Hongli by phone, and the result was still nil.

"Now how's the boss? do we still have to wait?" ask one of his big men.

"Of course, what is clear is that our existence here is very risky. We could have been captured by the Taoists!" obviously Feng while grunting rudely. He was overwhelmed with worry.

"Wait on! it's possible that master Hongli was kidnapped by the Taoists while heading here?" guess Chang.

"Hmm, maybe. . ." Feng was silent for a moment while holding onto part of his chin, as if he was thinking hard. "I'll make sure, after trying to call Yenn first," he continued, then immediately picked up his old phone.

"Boss! the phone just change! it's the age of smartphones!" critics of Chang who feel uncomfortable with the phone owned by his boss. As a result, he immediately got a sharp plot from Feng.

As expected, Yenn was also unaware of her husband's whereabouts. The news from Feng instead made Xiao's birth mother's condition even worse.
