Saten Ruiko walked forward uncontrollably, following the silver puppet beside her.

Except for the change in the color of the puppet, it was the same as before, so no one noticed her abnormality.

But Saten Ruiko was already panicked beyond measure, she clearly realized that she was being manipulated by a puppet!

She doesn't understand why it happened like this at all, and she doesn't know who attacked her; the only thing Saten Saten understands is that she is in a catastrophe!

—Master help! The puppet moved by itself, and in turn manipulated me, the puppeteer!

Saten Ruiko groaned in her heart, but perhaps because things were too weird, after the initial shock, she calmed down instead.

In any case, at least she was still alive, and the puppet didn't seem to want her life.

Just like this, while guessing the attacker's intentions, he let the puppet lead him forward.

Soon, Saten Ruiko found her standing in front of a coffee shop.

Pushing open the store door, the bell on the door made a crisp sound. Immediately a waiter greeted him.

But seeing the puppet at Saten Reniko's feet, the waiter hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile, "Sorry, we don't need talent show services..."

— I don’t want to perform here either!

Saten Leiko complained in her heart.

But she couldn't speak—the puppet didn't seem to be able to control the words she said.

At this moment, another waiter came over, and after seeing the silver puppet clearly, he quickly said: "No, this lady is a guest. The guest in the third box said hello and said that he would invite a girl with a puppet ...I'm very sorry, please come with me."

Saying that, she led Saten Ruiko to the second floor.

—It seems that the guy who plotted against me is here!

In addition to being apprehensive, Saten Ruiko tried her best to put on a vicious look, ready to take a good look at the prisoner - the other party chose to meet in a public place like a coffee shop, which made her a little bolder.

After opening the door of the box room to let the guests in, and finishing ordering, the waiter turned to leave and closed the door.

Only Saten Ruiko and the prisoner were left in the room, which made her nervous again.

The prisoner is an ordinary boy who can be seen everywhere. It is impossible to tell which school it is from the uniform, but it should be a high school student...

But Saten Ruiko didn't believe this judgment at all—the clothes must be a disguise, and she instinctively felt that he was not a student at all.

Even... Saten Ruiko doubted whether this guy was human or not.

Although this man is drinking coffee leisurely, he looks completely indistinguishable from ordinary humans, but what should I say? Saten Ruiko's first feeling was "full of disobedience".

It's not that it doesn't look like it, but it's "too much like" a human being, to the extent that it obliterates its personality, as if it was a product of excessive effort to imitate human beings.

Saten Leizi's suspicion is not groundless, because she is Ling Xingye's disciple (self-proclaimed), and she has seen Ling Xingye's superb silk-drawing play more than once-manipulating puppets to be no different from humans is Ling Xingye's forte.

Not to mention, Saten Ruiko also knew about the existence of "automatic puppets".

She had already guessed that the man in front of her was most likely an automatic puppet!

—Be sure to find a way to tell Master! Or Sister Yao and Sister Hua!

Saten Leiko shouted in her heart, but her body could only sit obediently in the booth, staring at the man in front of her.

After completing the task, the silver puppet also jumped onto the empty space beside it and remained motionless.

"It's my first time meeting you, Saten Saten, it's a pleasure meeting you." Horns finally spoke.

"You..." Saten Leizi found herself finally able to speak, "Who are you and what do you want to do? I'm just an ordinary student, level 0, it's useless even if you take me away! Don't mess around, otherwise Xingye and Sister Yao They will definitely not let you go!"

Instead of calling for help, he revealed all the questions and warnings that had been accumulated in his heart for a long time.

"Don't be nervous," Horns smiled gently and pushed his cup over, "Drink something and take a rest."

"I don't want..." Saten Ruiko refused, but her hand had already brought the coffee to her mouth.

"Don't worry, it's just ordinary coffee," Horns said.

Saten Ruiko swallowed her coffee with a bitter face.

"Have you calmed down?" Hornes asked with a smile, "Do you want to eat something? The dim sum here is not bad."

"Ice water is fine, thank you!" Saten Ruiko said.

In fact, she didn't want to talk to him, but she had no choice but to drink black coffee just now, or the version without sugar and creamer. Saten Saten felt that the other party was deliberately torturing herself.

Horns called the waiter and ordered another pile of cakes and biscuits, filling the table.

"You're welcome, just eat. My treat." Hornes said.

Saten Ruiko found that her hands could move, and immediately poured herself a glass of ice water.

But helplessly, only the head and hands can move freely, Saten Ruiko could only resign herself to pick up the food on the table, and ate it as if revenge.

— I saw the menu just now, this store is really not cheap.

"You kidnapped me here for a treat, right?" Saten Reniko asked, "Tell me, what kind of conspiracy do you have?"

"You misunderstood, Saten Reiko-san, I really mean no harm." Hornes said, "I just fancy your silk-drawing scene—it's really beautiful, I've never seen it like this on a non-professional Great craftsmanship."

"Really!" The girl immediately beamed with joy, but immediately remembered the current situation, "Cough, even if you praise me like that, it won't do any good!"

"I'm not praising you, I'm just stating the facts." Horns said, "Do you know how far you are from a real puppet master? Puppet, you lack a real puppet."

"Master Xingye said, you can use this puppet for basic exercises." Saten Leizi said.

Ling Xingye also promised that after she finished practicing, she would personally make a puppet and give it to her.

"Good judgment." Horns nodded, "but he obviously ignored your progress speed—you can already use a real puppet."

Horns looked serious: "Do you know the difference between a professional puppeteer and a puppeteer in the general sense? It lies in the puppets they manipulate—many actions and skills can only be performed by specially designed and manufactured puppets."

"If you don't use a real puppet, you can't continue to progress and become a puppet master." Horns said, "So, let me make you a puppet."

"Huh?" Saten Renko exclaimed, "You? Make a puppet? Give it to me? Aren't you an automatic puppet?"

"I am Yanshi," Horns said with a smile, "I was the one who made the puppet. It has nothing to do with faction or personal grievances, I just don't want to see the bright pearl dusted—there is such a talented child among the outsiders, I haven't seen it for a long time It's been here."

After finishing speaking ~lightnovelpub.net~ without giving Saten Saten a chance to refute, Horns got up and left directly.

"At this time tomorrow, it's still here, come and get your puppet." Walking to the door, Horns turned around and said, "Don't forget."

After a while, after confirming that the other party had really left, Saten Ruiko finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, she found that her body was completely free.

"What...what's going on?"

She patted her chest to calm down: "Should I tell Master Xingye? I really can't believe it..."

Suddenly, she found a flash of metallic luster on her hands.

Taking a closer look, the roots of the ten fingers of both hands seemed to be wrapped with silver ribbons, and a circle of silver tattoos appeared.

The silver stripes extend from the palm to the wrist, woven into a bracelet-like pattern.

Saten Ruiko silently stuffed the phone back into her pocket. As soon as he turned his head, he found that the silver puppet was looking up at him.
