I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

Chapter 654: I don’t know if it counts as a discovery

"Are there any of your paintings in that art gallery?" Gu Chaoxi turned his head to look at the art gallery and asked again.

Because Zhou Zuoran turned his head to the outside several times, Gu Chaoxi was a little concerned.

It is easy to tell whether he is drawing or not.

When a person moves his hand back and forth without exerting any strength, he can clearly feel that the arm is not exerting any strength. If he were to exert strength, the lines of the arm would be tense.

So, when he just said that he didn't paint, Gu Chaoxi was not very surprised.

The person on the other side seemed a little surprised as to why she could ask such a question.

But soon, he nodded and agreed: "Yes, but I used a pseudonym."

Gu Chaoxi didn't find it strange. Many people like to use pseudonyms when creating art. This is normal.

Take her for example, she used to occasionally write some mediocre novels.

Of course, I also used a pen name for the things I wrote. After all, when I am not very successful, it would be a bit embarrassing to use my real name.

"You are very good then, why can't you draw now?"

She raised her eyes and fell on Zhou Zuoran's face again.

The other party seemed a little confused, or didn't know how to express it.

After a while, he finally slowly hugged the drawing board back to his chest and just lowered his head: "Maybe it's because I have no inspiration."

It sounds like a very bad thing for an artist to have no inspiration.

However, Gu Chaoxi just smiled with the corners of his lips pulled.

It's almost noon and it's time for everyone to wake up.

What should she do in the afternoon? She hadn't decided yet. Perhaps there were new things waiting for them to explore on the fourth floor of the art gallery.

But, is the truth about the art gallery really the story of that painting and the suicide of the painting’s artist’s daughter?

So far, it seems more like it's about Shen Liao.

"You've been here for so long, have you heard of Shen Liao?" she suddenly asked.

The person opposite was stunned for a moment, and before he could say anything, someone came over.

"I made you a new cup of coffee."

Zhou Jie's cup of coffee came so suddenly that Gu Chaoxi even looked at him twice, wanting to know why he did so.

But before she could figure out what was going on, Zhou Zuoran on the opposite side suddenly stood up from his seat holding a drawing board.

"Sorry, I have to go back."

"Hey? Wait!" Gu Chaoxi wanted to reach out to stop him, but he was a step too late. Zhou Zuoran had already left this position and walked quickly towards the door.

The wind chimes at the door swung twice as the door opened, and a crisp sound reached Gu Chaoxi's ears.

At this moment, it was inexplicably harsh.

She couldn't explain what the feeling was, she just felt it was a little strange.

The coffee on the table in front of her was still steaming. It was the coffee Zhou Jie had just made for her.

She lowered her eyes, stirred it casually with a spoon, squinted her eyes, and suddenly a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Boss Zhou, what are you doing?"

"Hmm?" Zhou Jie sat down on the opposite side and looked at Gu Chaoxi without hesitation: "I'm just pouring you another cup of hot coffee."

Yeah, just pour her a cup of coffee.

But why did Zhou Zuoran get up and leave immediately after he came over?

She had not forgotten what Zhou Jie said before she came over. Could they still be considered a family?

Can they be considered as the main family, or are they originally the main family?

Did Zhou Zuoran and Zhou Jie know each other?

There were two more "ding-ling" sounds.

This time, Gu Chaoxi turned around and saw Pei Yan and Shen Yao coming in.

She curled her lips, held the cup towards Zhou Jie, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for the coffee, but my friends and I still have to go to the art gallery across the street to play."

After saying that, she took out two bills from her pocket and placed them on the table, then tilted her head back and took a big sip of the hot coffee.

The aroma of coffee beans slid down her nostrils, with a hint of bitterness.

She smacked her lips and said nothing. She just stood up and put the cup down, then walked towards the person standing over there, and then they walked out of the door on the other side together and walked towards the art gallery opposite.

Zhou Jie looked at the backs of this group of people, and then looked at the cup of coffee that had only been taken a sip.

In the end, he just smiled helplessly.

"What were you talking about just now?" Pei Yan turned his head and asked her when they entered the art museum.

She thought about it and shook her head. In fact, she didn’t talk about anything with Zhou Jie. Instead, she wanted to know more about Zhou Zuoran.

After briefly explaining Zhou Zuoran's situation, Shen Yao came over.

"In other words, another person related to the art museum has appeared?"

"Hmm. It's getting a bit complicated." When there are more people in the plane, the relationships between the characters will become more complicated.

For example, there is now the additional Zhou Zuoran.

It is very likely that Zhou Zuoran and Zhou Jie were relatives, which means they were familiar with each other.

In addition, Zhou Jie and Du Yuzhao are acquaintances, and these people should all know Shen Liao.

Although Zhou Zuoran didn't answer just now, judging from his behavior, he didn't seem like someone who knew nothing about Shen Liao.

Moreover, Zhou Jie also said that this person often comes to the cafe.

Since you are a stranger, isn't it strange that you always come to the cafe opposite the art museum?

What's more, he was holding a drawing board, so anyone who saw it would have taken a second look.

She blinked, raised her hand and pressed Pei Yan's wrist, then took his arm.

"Let's not think about this for now. Let's go to the fourth floor and take a look. We don't know what good things are there."

The group went up to the fourth floor and began to look around the exhibition.

The fourth floor is not considered the main area for activities, but it is fully open.

Gu Chaoxi pulled Pei Yan inside and started looking inside from the left.

A few people walked around the fourth floor and finally sat down in the rest area in the middle.

"Did you find anything?" Qi Chuzhao turned to look at Pei Yan and Gu Chaoxi.

The two shook their heads and to be honest they didn't notice anything.

Shen Nianbai hesitated for a moment and raised his hand: "I don't know if it counts as a discovery, but I don't know if you have noticed it."

"Tell me about it?" Pei Yan tilted his head and looked at Shen Nianbai with a hint of encouragement in his eyes.

She pursed her lips and subconsciously grabbed Zhang Qingya's hand: "When we were on the fourth floor just now, Shen Liao came up once, but she saw us and left quickly."

"Or maybe he wasn't looking at us, but was looking at someone, but he didn't find them."

At that time, she came up and stood at the entrance of the exhibition hall on the fourth floor. She looked around inside and then left in a hurry.
