Chapter 843 The Long, Long Night
“Gilbert, why haven’t you slept?”
“I can’t sleep!” Gilbert huffed out in a muffled voice, which was a little hoarse.
Kisa uttered out a single “Oh,” then closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
Gilbert bit into his teeth again and put her arms and legs away. Then, he quickly ran to the sofa to lie down. Kisa was repeatedly trying to seduce him, or so he thought. If this kept going on, something was bound to happen sooner or later.
His arm cushioned his head, and he stared at the ceiling in a daze. A long, long night such as this was truly unbearable!
The following morning, James crouched behind the room door. Through opening the narrow slit, his eyes stared into Gilbert’s room that was facing slanted to his room.
It had been a long, long night, and Gilbert still had not gone out, so there seemed to be no problem. He gave a yawn and prepared to go and have some proper rest.
Suddenly, his eyes immediately stretched wide open. He saw Gilbert carrying breakfast and walking past the front of his door. He sucked in a cold breath with a whoosh.
‘Impossible. Why would Gilbert have split into two?‘ he thought. As he watched Gilbert walk past, he quickly rushed out.
“Mr… Mr. Kooper, how did you come back from the outside. Weren’t you sleeping inside the room?”
Gilbert looked at his blackened eyes and suddenly felt pity for him. He smiled at James and said, “It seems you aren’t such a professional after all. Why? Did you nod off during the night?”
James shook his head repeatedly, “No, I didn’t nod off. I really stared at Mr. Kooper’s room for the whole night. I didn’t even blink once.”
“Heh, the whole night? That must’ve been hard for you. However, you should try and remember carefully, did you truly not blink once at all?”
