Bab 241: Safety Blanket

Sliding down the banister was both the most fun thing I have ever done and the scariest. Because the entire stairwell was dark, I had no idea exactly what was on the other side. I mean, it could be another set of stairs or absolutely nothing and I was going to fall to my death.

Either way, it beat walking down.

I relaxed my grip as I leaned my upper body against the railing causing me to speed up even more. But that was when it hit me. I wasn't turning. I was literally going straight down. Just how deep was this thing?

I continued my fast descent when a hand came out of the darkness, stopping me from going any further. Letting out a strangled yelp, it took me a second to realize that I had managed to catch up with Chen Zi Han.
