Did he talk to me? Why he look at my direction? Or he was talking with someone behind me? Senja was looking back to Yoda who was standing behind her and the later shook his head indicated it wasn't him that Xiao Tianyao had mentioned.
Hence hesitantly, Senja followed him inside the room. If the person mentioned wasn't her then he would definitely stop her from getting closer however until Senja was close enough to him he didn't chased her away and let Senja entered the house.
The man in dark gray clothes also no less confused than Senja, he looked at the girl quizzically, from the moment she got off the carriage he already noticed her because of her hair color but now, Master even let her to come into the interrogation room? But that room wasn't suitable for young delicate girl like her, right? The room was too bloody, and also she was 'Senja', why Master brought her along?
His question was almost the same like Utara's opinion about Senja involvement in this matter.
They were walking in one line, with Xiao Tianyao lead the way and the dark grey clothes man from before followed him closely while Senja walked little bit slow and was a meter away from them.
They entered into the house and make beeline toward the back yard. The interior inside the room was very simple and it looked like the owner prioritized efficiency over luxury.
At the backyard they walked past pink carnation garden flower; I will never forget you. That was the meaning of this flower. How could a beautiful flower that has very deep meaning to be planted here? It wasn't suitable with those burly men with scary aura like them.
They were stopped at the big rotten wooden door with 2 men standing on guards at each side, as soon as they saw Xiao Tianyao they pay their respect to him and open the door. The door squeaked open with creepy sound.
The damp smell was rising in the air. Senja retreated two steps as her eyes stared transfixed at the door and her breath became narrow. She didn't like the feeling towards that place.
Xiao Tianyao noticed Senja's strange reaction. "Afraid of dark place?"
Senja shook her head. "What is inside?"
"Come and look by yourself"
Senja took another step backwards again while she shook her head like a rattled drum. "No, I am fine here"
"But I am not" When Xiao Tianyao had just said that he grabbed Senja's wrist and dragged her inside the room.
Senja wanted to struggle free however, of course her strength didn't match him, it was proven before.
"You! Let me go now! Or else I will tell grandfather about this!"
Xiao Tianyao didn't budge by her threaten words. He dragged her enter the room effortlessly and suddenly he felt a sharp pain on the back of his hand, instinctively he turned back only to see Senja bit his hand.
"What are you doing?"
"Kiss your hand" Senja answered with muffled sound while her teeth stuck in the skin of his hand.
Is it not pain enough? He still asks what am I doing?
Xiao Tianyao jerked his hand until Senja stumbled forward to release his hand from her bite and then continued to walk, still with his hand holding Senja's wrist. "Stop playing around" He said irritably.
"Don't you feel pain?" Senja was asking with surprised. She was very sure that she had bit him deeply, how could he seemed feel nothing?
However the man who dragged her didn't answer her question. "Crazy inhuman guy" She cursed under her breath after that she stop complain and struggle, it was useless after all and she needed her strength for the next unexpected events. Who knew what this madman would do to her.
They were walked deeper into the dungeon and then they were entered into another room. Senja tried to remember the path that she had taken, in case she needed it to runway.
When Senja stepped inside, a chill went up her spine. There was bloody scent lingering in the air, it was simply nauseating.
Not including Senja, Xiao Tianyao and the dark grey clothes man from before, there were total of 8 men inside the room and they were dressed in dark grey clothes as well. All of the guards were Crescent Moon Member they were all Xiao Tianyao's people.
Why all of them were Xiao Tianyao's people? Didn't he come regarding the Country's problem? Why there weren't a single soldier here?
Xiao Tianyao finally released Senja's wrist when the door had been closed. But, Senja clutched onto Xiao Tianyao hand again with worry expression written on her face.
"What are we doing here?" Senja looked at Xiao Tianyao with glistening eyes that nearly cry.
Xiao Tianyao looked at her hand that was clutched onto his and traced his sight to her pitiful expressions, everyone who saw her right now would have an urge to protect this small little girl and comforted her especially when tears rolling down on her face.
Even the man from before almost took the initiative to talk, before Xiao Tianyao beat him into it.
He stared into Senja's crying eyes unperturbedly and said calmly. "Do you think it works on me?" As he said that he shook his hand from her clutched and walked away into the middle of the room then sat on the high chair with one hand supported his chin.
Senja's pitiful face abruptly turned menacing. She wiped her tears on her cheeks roughly. What a waste of tears for that heartless man!
All the guards inside the room : "…" Such a shocking change!
It was indeed needed more than tears and pitiful look to deceiving him.
Senja folded her arms in front of her chest as she walked angrily to stand beside Xiao Tianyao because there was no more chair available.
Based on what Xiao Tianyao and another man previous conversation, Senja could roughly guess that their purposed was to conduct interrogation but Senja couldn't find any reason why Xiao Tianyao brought her along.
