Chapter 137: Napoleon Cake (3)

It wasn't the prince who picked up Cinderella, who would it be?

When Lin Sanjiu took half a step back and bumped into Emma's dinner table, her mind was still thinking about this problem.

It wasn't until a few milliseconds later, when the sound of rain and barking dogs suddenly hit her ears, that she came to her senses, and quickly raised her head—her eyes fell across the dimly lit wooden house, and Little Red Riding Hood was hiding behind Emma with a frightened expression, her hands clutching her grandmother's clothes, and only a pair of eyes were looking at her.

Occasionally, a few bolts of lightning struck outside the window, reflecting the room and illuminating the knife that Emma had held in her hand at some point.

knew that it was useless, but Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but defend himself: "I'm not a werewolf......

But Emma didn't even look at her, clenched the knife with trembling hands, and shouted out of the house: "It's her!" The werewolf must be her! Find a way to save us! ”

Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but sigh.

She didn't even know what a werewolf was, and she certainly couldn't tell who was lying. It wouldn't be difficult for her to knock down, or even kill, everyone here—but the more this happened, the more Lin Sanjiu didn't want to act rashly—not to mention, it wasn't clear what effect the death of a person would have on this copy......

Outside, the hunters' shouts came through the layers of rain and mist, and it sounded like they had agreed to rush in—and if they did, the situation would be out of order. She took a few steps to the door, turned her head and smiled bitterly at the heavily guarded Emmazu and grandchildren.

"I'm not a werewolf, and I don't know who they are. But I'm not going to go far, and I'll scream if there's any danger. Dropping this sentence, which even she didn't know who she was talking to, Lin Sanjiu opened the wooden door - the hunter outside was suddenly dragged by her, and immediately rolled into the house.

Before they could show their weapons, she picked up the hunter and threw it aside, and rushed out, smashing away several of the men and dogs that had pounced on her like a leopard, and in the blink of an eye her figure disappeared into the rain.

The hunter who got up from the ground was about to chase after him again, but where could he still see the trace of Lin Sanjiu?

The hunters ran a few steps reluctantly, but standing in the forest in the middle of the night, they could hardly see anything clearly, and did not chase far, so they had to turn around and return to Emma's hut.

Seeing the hunters coming, Emma's knife fell to the ground, and she hugged Little Red Riding Hood tightly in shock.

When there were more people, Emma and the others were not so scared - after calming down, she turned on the lamp, hurriedly poured water for a few people, brought towels to wipe their faces, and kept thanking them. Somehow, though, the barking of the dogs did not stop, and Evie muttered, "I don't think they'll be able to calm down for a while," and got up and went out of the house to appease his hound. In the barking of dogs from time to time, everyone talked for a while, and they all decided that the strangely dressed woman just now must be a werewolf.

Little Red Riding Hood bit her lip and look at this for a while, and look at that for a while.

Seeing that it was too early, Link was the first to stand up: "...... Then we'll go first, and you have to be careful. ”

"Well, I will," Emma said, avoiding his gaze and sending a few people out of the house, "thank you very much. ”

Evey's dog is still not very honest, but he can control it when he pulls the dog chain. After the backs of several people and a dog walked into the rain curtain, they were quickly smeared off the curtain by the dim rain like a few strokes.

Emma sent them away and closed the door.

As soon as she turned around, she met Little Red Riding Hood's dark eyes—and in an instant, the hairs on her body exploded.

"Grandma." Little Red Riding Hood called her softly.

The hut was quiet and dim again, and Emma couldn't see her granddaughter's expression a little clearly.

"What...... What's the matter, dear? She didn't know why her voice was a little shaky.

In the darkness, as Little Red Riding Hood took a step forward, Emma involuntarily retreated to the window.

"I want to ask you something." The little girl's voice sounded a little strange.

Emma glanced at the knife that had fallen to the ground, and remembered the unstoppable barking of the dogs.

"Baby, come up here and let Grandma see you......" she plucked up her courage and smiled.

Unexpectedly, Little Red Riding Hood responded very obediently, and walked a few steps to the window.

Under the snow-white lightning that lit up from time to time, her little face, though a little pale, was still the usual Little Red Riding Hood - not a werewolf - Emma breathed a sigh of relief, and faintly blamed herself.

Before her guilty feelings subsided, Little Red Riding Hood's words suddenly made her brain seem to freeze: "...... Grandma, how many hunters came to help us just now? ”

Emma thought for a moment, feeling that the cold seemed to be affecting her mind. "Three, three!"

As soon as the words came out, she herself felt that something was wrong. It's not a big number, so why would you hesitate to ...... yourself?

"There's Link, Evie, and Richard...... Right? Little Red Riding Hood asked, after chase.

"Yes, yes...... "Emma can't think of anyone else." What's going on? ”

"But there were four people who came out of the house just now." Little Red Riding Hood stretched out a white finger and pointed it at the cold window.

"Huh...... Who's that? ”

The same sentence just popped into Emma's mind, and then it was spat out of Link's lips.

Because they all hoped to go home early and dry their wet clothes soaked in the rain, a few brave hunters agreed to take a shortcut in the woods—the so-called shortcut was in fact just a narrow gap in the dense forest, which had been trampled a little flatter. In the dense and gloomy forest, it rained, and it was almost impossible to see anything, only a dark black as far as the eye could see.

It was precisely for this reason that several people walked in silence for a long time, and Link turned around by chance, and suddenly realized that something seemed to be wrong.

Because...... Evie wasn't that tall.

But with this tall black shadow, there are indeed only three figures walking in the forest at this moment.

Link, who is worthy of being an old hunter for twenty years, pulled Richard past him, and quickly pulled out the long knife at his waist: "...... Who are you? What about Evie? ”

Could it be the werewolf girl just now?

The tall black shadow on the opposite side paused and spoke: "...... Belch? I'm Richard, isn't Evie by your side? ”

Oh, and by the way, Richard is tall too.

The feeling of reassurance had not yet spread throughout his body, and Link's calloused hands finally felt the rough, hard, pinprick-like touch under the skin.

The rest of the thing, his memory was a little blurry-

I only remember that in my panic, I seemed to draw my knife and swung it hard—Richard's screams, the incessant downpour, the tall black shadows rushing back and forth, the sharp pain when something sharp cut through his stomach......

Link seemed to be unconscious for a moment, and it wasn't until the cold rain woke him up that he was vaguely aware of what had just happened.

Not far away was Richard's body. Even if the rain was so heavy, it still couldn't dissipate the thick bloody gas...... But it seems that the corpse is still intact, as if it has not been eaten by the werewolf.

If you don't eat it, why attack us? Link's broken mind could not draw any conclusions, and he only relied on the remaining survival instincts in his body to crawl on the ground with difficulty, moving towards the road outside the forest little by little.

It was an avenue leading to the city, and every now and then someone would pass by - and when you got there, you had a better chance of survival.

A hole was opened in his body, and the fallen leaves, stones, and mud in the forest were all pierced into the flesh and blood with the crawling action. Just when Link thought he was about to pass out, he suddenly heard a childlike scream in the distance, tearing through the rainy night.

As soon as the voice came to his ears, Lin Sanjiu, who was squatting on the other side of the forest and on the top of a tree, was shocked.

It was clearly Little Red Riding Hood's voice—she quickly slid down the tree, and ran toward Emma's cabin.

Because she didn't dare to hurt the characters or get too far away from them, she had to squat on the top of the tree and listen intently to the movement from the direction of the cabin. But since the noisy people and dogs had gone, the hut had been quiet, and all that could be heard was the heavy rain falling from the sky.

Such a small distance was nothing to Lin Sanjiu - it was only ten seconds of work, and the wooden house was already in her field of vision.

The room was dark, but the door was wide open, and Little Red Riding Hood's exclamation burst out again: "Grandma! ”

Damn, the werewolf must be hiding near this house-Lin Sanjiu scolded secretly, just rushed closer, and suddenly there was a flower in front of him, and the raindrops that had been hitting his body since just now disappeared.

Leila looked at her in surprise.

Lin Sanjiu was still in a running position, but she was about to knock over the table in front of her - she hurriedly twisted her body, but she finally stabilized her footing.

Only then did she feel that the clothes on her body had regained their comfortably dry ness.

Lyra still had a goblet in her hand, filled with something transparent, and judging by the flush on her face, it must have been wine.

"What are you doing? You're such a weird man. Leila teasingly pinched Lin Sanjiu, "I've been living with you for a few days, and I still haven't understood you as a person...... Hey, did you hear what you just said? ”

Lin Sanjiu's heart beat for a moment, and his eyes fell on the sumptuous dishes in front of him.

“…… I didn't hear clearly, what are you talking about? She asked, a little unceremoniously.

For some reason, Leila never got angry with Lin Sanjiu, and was always so close to her: "Really! As I said, my husband gave me all the keys to the castle, but he did not allow me to open the last room upstairs. You say, what's in the room? ”R1152
