Chapter 293: Surprise? No, it was a big one!
After eating, Karina followed the man out of the Houm restaurant.
He walked in front of Karina, feeling a little restrained. He originally thought that he had made a date with such a beautiful woman and was going to spend a lot of money today. He was even prepared to spend a fortune to win the beauty's smile, but who knew that she would go straight to the point, which made him hesitate.
Am I too self-deprecating? If I had been braver at that time, perhaps I could have even attracted that beautiful captain.
But Karina is not bad either, and can help him make connections. Although his secrets may be exposed, who can say for sure that this woman will have the chance to tell them?
Karina followed the man. His timid look made her feel a little disgusted, but she was even more curious about the so-called secret that allowed this man to dream of becoming a multi-millionaire.
She had inquired about it from the beginning, and there was nothing special about the man in front of her.
He has neither any wealthy relatives nor any treasure passed down in the family for many years. The only thing he has may be the small treasury in his bank card.
"How about we take a car? This place seems a bit far from the forest park!"
The man was sweating profusely as he walked, and he couldn't help but take off his coat, revealing the lining underneath. However, looking at Karina's strong and energetic appearance, he decided to be a little nervous, since he still had the little blue pill.
Karina didn't say anything. Anyway, he had to lead the way. She knew this man by chance. To be honest, she didn't even know where this man's home was. But does it matter? It doesn't matter!
Karina, who is obsessed with looks, said she doesn't have that many requirements.
Finally, the man succeeded in hailing a car, and the envious looks from all around made him feel very vain. However, the driver's question about whether he was vain seemed a bit unnecessary to him.
"Okay, here we are. This is my home!"
The man pointed to a high-end apartment next to the forest park. It looked like it had been built a long time ago, but it was still maintained by professional property management.
What surprised Karina was that this man seemed to be very famous in this apartment, and many people would say hello to him when they passed by.
And when he saw Karina, his eyes became even weirder, and then he looked at the man as if he was a scumbag.
This also made the man's expression a little awkward, but he still coughed twice and adjusted his expression. If the rent here was not really cheap and the property was not good, he would have moved out long ago.
Fortunately, the woman didn't seem very smart, but she did remind him that it would be better to go to the hotel next time as it was not safe to take the baby home directly.
Karina did not have the same expression as those people. Instead, she immediately observed the several emergency exits and window locations of the apartment. This place is very close to the forest park in the north of Canghai City, so that incident would have some impact on this place.
If it weren't for the fact that the Valkyrie of Destiny here is too weak and can only rely on mecha defense or tactical cleanup, otherwise there would be no need for her to come.
"Well, welcome to my house. It may be a little high, but the light is good, and there is a rooftop above. I have the key here. You can ask me for the key if you want to go and see." The man relaxed a lot after returning home. He casually threw the suit jacket in his hand on the chair and walked inside.
It was a two-bedroom, one-living-room house, with the bathroom and kitchen on the left side of the living room. On the way, you would pass the guest room with the bedroom inside. The man walked around the guest room and then arrived at the kitchen.
"You want a drink or ice water? I don't drink tea, so there's no tea leaves."
"Ice water is fine."
Karina replied calmly. She glanced around and saw that the things in the living room were placed in a mess. There were deep indentations on the sofa cushion. It was obvious that this man was too lazy to take care of her and habitually fell asleep on the sofa.
But what made her curious was that this man lived alone, but he rented a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment. Even if the top floor was cheaper, it shouldn't be possible.
Moreover, dust different from the surrounding dust can be seen under the door, which means that this man usually avoids the guest room when he is at home. The door lock was also specially replaced, but it looks like he installed it himself and his craftsmanship is not very good. The subconscious action just now also shows that there should be something in it, and it is not an empty room.
"Ms. Karina, your ice water!"
"Thank you!"
Karina took the ice water but didn't drink it. Instead, she looked straight at the guest room with a serious expression, "What's in this?"
Seeing Karina looking at the guest room, he was a little surprised that Karina was so perceptive and actually noticed the specialness of the guest room.
But he still pretended to be profound, "Ms. Karina, you can't wait so long? Then come in and take a look!"
He passed Karina and hesitated when he extended his hand. Finally, he searched for the key for a long time before opening the door of the guest room.
"This is the secret I told you, the secret that can make me a multi-millionaire, or even the richest man in Canghai City!"
After pushing open the door, the man quickly retracted his hand because a red light flashed behind the door. Even though it was dusk, the scarlet light was visible to the naked eye.
"It's a legendary creature. Although it's not quite the same as what's described in the storybook, based on my experience raising it for so long, I can guarantee that it is the vampire in the story. I've tried it!"
Although his expression was filled with fear, his eyes were full of passion, and it was obvious that he was very proud to be able to imprison such a legendary creature.
"Have you tried it?"
Karina's face was also full of surprise. She originally thought it was just a small surprise to pick up girls, or at most something rare. She didn't expect that this guy would directly make it bigger, and it was so big.
The word "big" here is an adjective, a realistic adjective, because this guy is really big. You can still tell that he has a human form from the outside, but the position of his arms has become like a tank-level Honkai beast. His hindquarters still have human-like features, but his forequarters are too large, making him look like a gorilla, especially his mouth full of fangs, which looks quite ferocious. His height of more than two meters and nearly three meters is close to the ceiling. The room is filled with air freshener and a fishy smell, and there are broken bodies on the ground.
If it weren't for the fact that there is a rooftop on top of this place, it would have been discovered long ago.
"How about it, am I awesome!"
Although his eyes were burning, seeing that Karina had not spoken for a long time, he had already grasped a steel baseball bat in his hand. Judging from the bumps on the bat, many people had been hit.
"Yeah, very powerful!" Karina's eyes became indifferent. Although there was a smile on her face, she had secretly labeled this man as a doomed man. She only liked handsome guys, not perverts!
