After tidying up this small home, Linlin nodded in satisfaction.
She was still a bit of a neat freak.
She went out, locked the door, and prepared to go to the library.
Holderma, unlike some entertainment works of the previous life, was not filled with all kinds of races.
On the contrary, Holderma was very xenophobic and resisted all non-human races.
On the streets, apart from a few silly and cute elemental creations made by magicians, there were only humans.
However, Linlin was not afraid of being discovered.
Succubi were the demons most capable of disguising as humans, at least in Holderma.
Unless the supreme Silver Codex was used, they could only be identified by killing them.
Thinking of this, Linlin sighed.
‘Why bother?’
She remembered the demon that had been tracking her half the city yesterday.
She guessed that it was most likely a succubus, but she couldn’t be sure.
But even if it was a succubus, Linlin didn’t feel ashamed.
Who told it to chase her inexplicably all the time?
She couldn’t shake it off, so she had no choice but to rely on the city guard.
With Mavis as the patrol team leader, Linlin was very clear about the route and address, and she easily dumped the demon chasing her over there.
There was no way, Mavis was about to get off work, she had to make a quick decision.
This also led to Mavis returning after she had finished her shower and her breath hadn’t calmed down yet.
She didn’t have time to cook at all, so she had to bluff her way through.
She was almost suspected, all because of that demon.
Demons under different demon kings were hostile to each other.
Even knowing that she might have tricked a succubus, Linlin was not ashamed.
Linlin, without any guilt, weaved through the crowd.
Looking small and petite.
Of course, Linlin wanted to state that it wasn’t that she was short.
She rounded up her height to 1.6 meters, which wasn’t considered short among southern girls in her previous life.
But in this world, it might be because of the martial spirit, everyone was very tall.
1.8 meters was the norm, Mavis was also a 1.8-meter-tall big sister, and Linlin’s feet would leave the ground with just a slight lift.
Just at this time, a massive guy of 2.5 meters passed by, and Linlin glanced at him.
It wasn’t just that Linlin’s thighs were not as thick as his forearms, but her head wasn’t even as big as his forearms.
Perhaps sensing the gaze, the big guy looked left and right, not seeing anyone looking at him, and scratched his head in confusion.
Linlin twitched slightly at the corner of her mouth, feeling a bit offended, and quickly walked towards the library.
As one of the few places where knowledge could be obtained, the library was always crowded with students eager for knowledge.
But what was strange today was that a large area in the center was strangely empty.
Many people would rather stand and read than sit there.
Linlin, holding a Equipment Repair Guide, hesitated a bit, it was quite uncomfortable to read while standing.
This official library didn’t allow borrowing, you could only read inside.
Linlin carefully went forward to observe, and her succubus instincts didn’t sense anything unusual.
Suddenly, she spotted a pile of books placed on a seat.
But the nearest librarian was far away, as if they didn’t see this.
Linlin hesitated for a moment.
As a succubus, she didn’t sense anything, but these ordinary people seemed to be avoiding misfortune.
This shouldn’t be the case.
She vaguely guessed that it might be something like the herd effect?
So she approached with her book.
Instantly, many people’s eyes locked onto her.
“Wow, what a cute girl.”
“So good-looking? Could she be a succubus?” The tone was slightly sour.
“Impossible, succubi are all sluts, this is really cute.”
Linlin twitched slightly at the corner of her mouth, feeling a bit offended.
The voices of the conversation were very small, but she was a succubus.
Only a few people discussed her appearance, getting some useful information.
But after she sat down, many people who were tired of standing started to move.
In just a little while, the seats were almost full, and some who hesitated for a while and missed the opportunity looked very frustrated.
In a sense, Linlin was the first to try crab, hehe.
Sitting in an excellent, spacious seat that she usually couldn’t get, Linlin smiled slightly, her heart full of pride.
Suddenly, Linlin’s eyes inadvertently glanced at the pile of books placed haphazardly.
Her eyelids twitched slightly.
Linlin did hate untidy things, but not seriously, the main problem was that all the books were about succubi!
Linlin slowly typed out a question mark in her mind.
Who would find so many books about succubi for no reason?
She frowned, feeling that things shouldn’t be so simple.
Linlin looked at the big sister on her left who had just praised her for being cute, and asked softly.
The big sister was very enthusiastic and told her the ins and outs very warmly.
Mavis came, Mavis left, everyone was afraid of attracting a curse, so they didn’t dare to sit, and those who came later didn’t dare to sit because everyone else wasn’t sitting.
Linlin was speechless at first. In her previous life, where the internet was developed, rumors often flew everywhere, and this life was no exception.
But what followed was panic.
‘Why did Mavis read so many books about succubi, could it be…’
Linlin was a little worried, a little scared, and also carried a hint of imperceptible expectation.
She definitely couldn’t read the book. Linlin went forward pretending to be kind to help the librarian, tidying up the mess left by Mavis, but secretly observing and scanning the books that Mavis had read.
Without exception, they were all related to succubi.
Because she had read them all, Linlin could easily find the original place of the books.
But Linlin’s heart was not so relaxed.
After tidying up, Linlin knew that she couldn’t be passive, she had to take the initiative!
First of all, she had to know why Mavis was looking for the books, had she discovered her secret? Or something else?
Linlin hoped it was the latter, she felt that now was not the best time to be honest.
But if she really found out… she would try her best to explain!
If Mavis really dared to abandon her… then…
Linlin pursed her lips.
You were the one who provoked me first!
With uneasy thoughts, Linlin came to the city guard branch where Mavis was.
“Hello, sister-in-law!”
“Hello, sister-in-law!”…
Very few people knew that Mavis was married, and Mavis’s subordinates happened to be among those few.
“Um, hello, I want to ask…” Linlin made an excuse to say she wanted to find Mavis.
Several teammates were dumbfounded, they didn’t know where their captain had gone.
Crap, could it be that the captain was doing something that all women would do?
Everyone exchanged glances and prepared to unify their statements to cover up for their captain.
They smiled at each other, their eyes full of tacit understanding, and replied:
“Washing feet…”
“Meeting…”
“Training…”
They looked at each other in shock.
‘I thought it was this…’
‘I thought…’
Linlin was stunned, could it be that Mavis was holding a meeting while washing her feet and training?
“I know! I know!” A female teammate who had gone to the training ground and chatted with her girlfriends just happened to come back and told them where Mavis had gone.
She also helped the three people with embarrassed faces out of the awkward situation.
“The Inquisition…”
Linlin’s mood became a little heavy, and she didn’t even notice those who were helping to cover up.
The Inquisition was not far away, Linlin arrived nearby, but she didn’t dare to go in, she only dared to watch from the side.
Just as humans would fear the burial ground.
In Linlin’s eyes, the Inquisition was no different.
Just getting close made her feel a little suffocated, so she only dared to watch from the side.
Before long, she saw Mavis and…
A person, or rather, a succubus… whose whole body was wrapped up and covered with chains…
Linlin pursed her lips slightly. After thinking about it, she didn’t go forward to say hello.
