Maybe it's because the mercury itself has the effect of restraining ghosts, or maybe there is some great secret method sealed inside this mercury sword. Anyway, when Alice took the 'mercy' away and placed it on top of a tombstone at least thirty meters away. The ghost of the little girl Helji has finally calmed down.
"Who got you here? Alice asked, "Need my help?"
Alice originally just asked casually, but the main reason was to open the topic. However, she didn't expect the other party's reaction to be unexpected.
"No! nothing!" Ghost Girl shook her hand desperately.
"Oh. Alice tilted her head slightly, looking at the translucent Helgi silently.
This child is very suspicious, and she feels that there is a great secret hidden in her heart. So, how should we react to this situation?
- I didn't find it.
Alice doesn't intend to get to the bottom of it at all. She wouldn't ask, she wouldn't try, and she wouldn't even ask about what happened in the ruins of the small building, the whole story of the fire.
At least not now.
After all, there are priorities. What if the little creature suddenly disappeared as he did then? Now it's hard to find someone who might know something about the cemetery in this area...... Phantom. You can't just make her disappear.
Alice bent down and picked up a blooming death knell.
"Little Helji, do you know this flower?"
Seeing that Alice didn't ask any further, the little ghost couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief—though she didn't need it anymore—she glanced quickly at the flower and replied, "Of course I do, this is a death knell flower, and my mother said that this flower is poisonous and cannot be eaten." ”
"Oh, Helji is so smart. Alice complimented her loudly and continued, "Do you know that this flower is not only black and purple, but also white?"
"Hmph, of course Helji knows. The little ghost said triumphantly: "Helji has made a hat out of white death knell flowers, and they don't even know about it, so don't tell me!"
[This kid...... It's still alive before the fire happened......]
Alice's eyebrows furrowed, and she looked disbelieving.
"I don't believe it, white death knell flowers are not found everywhere, how can you make so many hats. You must be telling a lie. ”
"Helji didn't tell a lie!" the little ghost shouted angrily. "Helji knows where the white death knell flower grows! there are so many, no, so many!" she struggled to open her hand and make a large circle.
"Oh, I can't see it anyway, you can have as many as you want. Alice shook her head and replied.
Then, at once, she heard the words she wanted to hear the most.
"Come over here! Helji will prove it to you!"
………………………………
Ten minutes later, led by the little ghost, Alice finally finds the white death knell in an extremely hidden and gloomy ravine. And there is not just one, but many, probably because of the geographical environment, this ravine is completely covered with white flowers.
"See!" the little ghost tilted his head, like a proud little swan. "Helge found it when he was five years old, and no one but Raillette ever sued him!"
"Oh, Helji is amazing. Alice complimented from the bottom of her heart. There is no doubt that the pile of white death knell flowers in front of me is not enough to squeeze a small bottle of juice, even if it is to fill a barrel. Minnie's treatment can be said to be no aftermath at all.
But before that, there is one more thing that needs to be addressed.
"You've done me a great favor, Helji. Alice said. Even if there is a reason, using words to coax a little girl is still not a way of action that she can accept.
So she decided to give a promise in exchange.
"Do you have any wishes, if you have something you want or someone you want to meet, just say it, and I'll do it for you." Alice looked at the little ghost and said seriously.
"Wish?" said Helgey, tilting his head, looking confused.
"Helji doesn't have any wishes. ”
Alice continued, "It doesn't matter if you don't have a wish. So Helji, do you have anything you want?"
"Hmm, let Helji think about it......" The little ghost fell into deep thought. But soon, she showed a cheerful look.
"Helji wants Gigi! When he left home, Helji forgot about Gigi in the basement!"
[Gigi, oh, is it a doll?]
"Understood, Gigi will be with you soon. Alice nodded. said that he had already accepted the commission.
She then collected enough white death knell flowers and confirmed the characteristics of the doll named Gigi and its location. Only then did he move his feet and quickly leave the eastern cemetery of Mosar.
Twenty minutes later, Alice appeared in front of a surprised Patsy.
"Coming back so soon?" asked the alchemist, puzzled, "Isn't it going well?"
Alice nodded, then shook her head again. She quickly removed the bag containing the Death Knell Flower from her back and showed the contents to the alchemist.
"Is that enough?" she poured out the white death knell flowers and pushed up a small stack on the table.
Patchy's eyes almost popped out.
"This ...... So many?" she reached out and quickly picked one up, examined it carefully, and quickly came to a conclusion.
This is a genuine white death knell flower, which is absolutely qualified in terms of medicinal power and vintage.
She patted her face gently, her eyes seemed to be circling, "I'm not dreaming, am I?"
"There is no dreaming. Alice replied, "Is that enough?"
"Enough is enough, just one is enough!" Patchy replied quickly, subconsciously filling the alchemy materials into her bag. But he suddenly came to his senses and had an embarrassed smile on his face.
"Hmm...... That one...... Miss Alice?"
“?”
"These extra white death knell flowers...... Can you sell it to me?" she looked at Alice with a somewhat evasive gaze and whispered, "I promise it will be in five months...... No, the full payment will be paid in three months!"
"It doesn't have to be that complicated. Alice shook her head slightly, and before Patsy Patchy could show a disappointed expression, she fired a blissful bullet into her head - "They're already yours, and it's up to you to do with them." ”
"Huh!?really?"
"It's true. Alice replied, and she immediately left Patchy in a dizzy state of bliss, and soon left Minnie's courtyard.
It's good to leave the treatment to a professional person, and a person like himself who doesn't know much about alchemy and pharmaceuticals just needs to do a good job.
She didn't have to wait long on the road, and went straight to the site of the current fire, where Helji once lived. According to the information provided by Helji, the doll named 'Gigi' should have been brought into the basement by her, so naturally it was not burned by the fire. As long as you act quickly enough, there will be no problem.
A few minutes later, Alice was once again in front of the ruins of the small building.
"The last time I was here, I was with Jamila...... I don't know where the dragon caught her. Looking at the crumbling ruins of the wooden door, Alice let out a soft sigh.
She wasn't worried about Jamila's safety. Because she knew that with the dragon's way of acting, as long as she said it, she would never eat it. Then, Jamila will not be in any danger until the appointed time arrives - and even if there is, she will be eliminated by the dragon. The only thing he needs to do is to find a way to defeat the dragon within a month
[Even if there is no way to defeat the dragon, at least I can exchange this life for Jamila to live.] 】
Alice thought to herself, and she stepped forward and pushed open the ruin door.
This place...... It's still so smoky.
The moment she opened the door, a cloud of flying ash and dust made Alice's eyes squint subconsciously. Then, the inside of the ruins, which had been burned to the ground by the flames, appeared in front of her again.
It's the same as the last time I came, but it's almost no different.
Alice didn't linger long in the inconsequential place, she went straight to the entrance to the basement, and opened the sealed basement entrance simply and rudely.
"It's a bit dark. ”
The girl raised her hand slightly, and a ball of magic light was thrown out by her, sticking exactly to the bottom of the basement. And as the light shines, the whole picture of the basement that was originally in darkness also appears in front of Alice.
A table, two chairs, three storage cabinets, a bed. These seven large pieces of furniture constitute the whole of the main body in the basement.
It's simple, it's clear. It's just self-explanatory.
However, there are no Helji dolls here.
Alice opened the sliding doors of the cabinet one by one, and carefully examined the hidden corners such as the bottom of the bed and the corner of the table. However, the empty drawers and corners only gave her a very bad answer.
Here, there are no Helge's dolls.
"It shouldn't be. Alice bit her lip slightly, a puzzled look on her face. It stands to reason that the doll should be placed right here. There's no reason to look for so long and can't find it.
Unless, someone came here before Alice and took the doll.
However, who in this world will fight the idea of a dead little girl's cherished doll?
