Selection day.
As soon as it was dawn, Liu Yu got up.
"Babba, good morning."
She teased the gray spotted finch in the cage first.
The gray spotted finch covered its head with its wings, and pouted its buttocks high:
[spot! ]
"Banban doesn't care about Baby! I don't care for a lifetime!!"
"Banban, you have been angry all afternoon and all night..." Liu Yu half bent down, and smiled at the bird in the cage, his blue eyes were full of tenderness, "Do you really not forgive me?"
[… Madara. ]
"… forgive."
The Gray Spotted Finch poked its head out of its wings in aggrieved manner, and the black bean's eyes were filled with water. Seemingly unwilling, he muttered again:
"...baby badass."
"Yes, yes, Babe, you badass." The door of the birdcage was closed now, and she reached out to lift the struggling gray spotted finch out, "But Mr. Scabbers has a lot, forgive Baby, okay?"
The speckled black eyeballs turned:
[Madara...]
"... Well, it's not impossible to forgive... You let the great Mr. Leslie hug Banban, um... It's best to sleep with Banban, just like hugging Baby Sheep that day... Banban will definitely be very sad. Love Bebe's…”
Liu Yu: ...
This is really unrelenting... Niao Xiaosan, he is still male.
She smiled:
"I'm afraid I'll have to wait until I come back from the Emerald Forest."
Bird's head straightened up from her arms suddenly:
[spot? ! ]
"The Emerald Forest?! Oh, Baby, you can't go..." Banban's black bean eyes began to burst into tears again. It was obvious that Liu Yu's experience in the Emerald Forest last time made him remember deeply, "You only have one arm left , babe... without one more and you'll be the ugliest human female ever... even Mr. Leslie would ditch you..."
"Will not."
Liu Yu put it on the window sill, watching its little pale yellow feet pacing up and down on the window sill.
"And Scabbers, I have to go."
she told it.
The gray spotted finch's black bean eyes stared straight at her for a while, as if making up its mind, it flapped its wings, and a white light shot out from its body and landed on Liu Yu. It became sluggish all of a sudden, and even the color of its fur began to dim:
[Madara...]
Banban drooped his head:
"...Then Banban gave you all the life-saving skills this time... Baby, you must come back... Banban is very lonely... Those stupid birds are not as smart as Baby."
Liu Yu always felt that there seemed to be something extra in his body.
Her whole body was warm, as if filled with some kind of strength.
She subconsciously popped a bright bomb.
The white sphere exploded in the air, and she immediately felt the difference.
Purer, more solid...
Reminds her of the bright bombs Gaia once sent out.
"... No, you take it back." She stroked the gray feathers on Banban's back, "I have the protection of the great Mr. Leslie, he is the Star Knight."
[spot? Spotted! ]
Ban Ban proudly puffed out her small chest:
"The great Mr. Leslie?! No, he can't!... Although Scabbers doesn't want to say that, but Banban has to say, Mr. Leslie, he, he is useless! If a male can't protect his beloved female, in our Birds, it should be expelled from the species!... Scabbard, Scabber is better than him! Scabbard!"
Liu Yu: ...
After that, no matter how much she persuaded, Banban refused to take it back. It seemed that it had made up its mind to protect her, a weak female.
"Ban Ban only gave half, a small half." It said, "When Baby comes back, I have to pay it back."
Liu Yu looked at the gray spotted finch that had hid in the cage again, so he had to go to the bathroom to wash up.
Rinse your mouth, wash your face, and then gently apply a layer of moisturizing cream on your face—this was given to her by Mrs. Fergus before leaving.
Thinking of Mrs. Fergus, Liu Yu was a little dazed.
The face in the mirror is 30% similar to Mrs. Fergus, with outline, nose, and hair, but there is a little difference——
She couldn't tell.
I even felt that there were some changes from when she first entered Belia's body two months ago.
The eyes are brighter, the hair is thicker, even the eyebrows seem more attractive.
Liu Yu put the silk handkerchief on the shelf beside him, at this moment—
She felt a shudder.
In the room... there seems to be another person.
He hid in the darkness, unscrupulously spying on everything in this house.
"Who?!"
She looked up suddenly.
Nothing at all.
But it was too quiet.
Even the few birdsong that Banban rang out from time to time were gone.
not good.
Liu Yu subconsciously opened the door and walked out. There was nothing on the closet.
The birdcage... disappeared.
"Scattered?!"
she called out.
Not even the slightest echo.
As long as she's in the mushroom house, Scabbers won't go out...
Scabbers was gone.
Liu Yu's heart almost jumped into her throat. She thought of Cici, and the scene of the separation of the pink rabbit's corpse—the hand holding the closet couldn't help shaking.
At this time, a leaf fell down.
Very strange shape, like an irregular heart.
Liu Yu picked it up, there were words on the leaves, and the tadpole-like letters were lined up. She found that she understood it:
"Ban Ban is with me, bring the iron plate and see you in the Emerald Forest.
louis. "
Louis!
you again.
Liu Yu clutched the leaf expressionlessly, until it turned into a ball of green mud, then opened his hand and brushed it away.
She went to wash the handles again, changed her clothes, hung the iron sheet and the most important memory beads together, and then went out.
In a short period of time, she has calmed down.
Louis had to ask for something—and until then, Scabbers was safe.
Although Louis is always pretending to be false, with a hammer to the east and a hammer to the west, he seems to do whatever he wants, but Liu Yu knows that he and himself are the same kind of people.
To achieve the goal, use any means.
It's a pity that she hasn't figured out his intention yet:
Anyway, it's definitely not like the one in the novel.
Now, Liu Yu has to admit: the novel is too one-sided.
And now, she lives in a real world. Everything is showing her its expanded, not monotonous core.
—————
For the holy selection, gather at the temple square.
When the young and handsome face of the archbishop in red appeared in front of all the favored ones, there was a buzzing sound.
"Exactly like Mr. Leslie..."
"No, no, look carefully, Mr. Leslie is more handsome..."
"It's kind of like Professor Lewis..."
Bruce coughed:
"Children, this is the cardinal of the temple, Your Excellency Arnold. He will personally preside over this holy selection."
Arnold raised his hand, with a friendly and easy-going expression, the red robe representing the archbishop on his body, and the crown on his head were shining in the light.
"Arnold March."
"... The location of the competition has changed. We will cross the Emerald Forest and go to Nasi Snow Mountain. There, there will be a tough battle waiting for you. The three men and three women who won in the end will follow me to the temple to accept God's choice .Wish you guys good luck."
Liu Yu stood beside Gaia, staring intently at the black-haired young man standing at the front of the line.
There is no birdcage.
"Belia."
The people around him seemed to have sensed it, and turned around, "It's time to go."
Liu Yu was led by him, and followed the flow of people out of the square.
When passing the marble statue, she couldn't help but glance back, wondering if it was her illusion, she seemed to see Louis reaching out to Arnold when he passed by him.
When you look at the past, there is no more.
And Mary was there, and she and Nataxi were walking together.
too weird.
Liu Yu thought: There must be something that she ignored.
The moment she looked away, she seemed to see Arnold's shallow green eyes smiling at her.
