Chapter 8 The Question of Age

Lulunaka crawled back into the workshop, and after a while, came out with three wooden cups in her hand. Julius thought she had made some strange potion to get them to drink, but it turned out to be just steaming milk. He and Rei both took the cup and looked at Lulunaka. Julius had a suspicious look on her face, when did Lulunaka become such a considerate person?

"If you don't want to drink it, give it to her. Lulunaka pointed at Lei, who had already drunk half a glass of milk. She looked hungry, and after almost all the running yesterday, although she almost fainted when she closed her eyes last night, it didn't mean that her stomach wouldn't be hungry.

"You didn't add anything to it, did you?" asked Julius. Lulunaka pointed to the cup in his hand, the swaying surface of the milk did indeed have a blue sheen. "I added something from heaven to it, and if you dare not drink it, I will take it back. ”

Julius didn't know if Lulunaka was joking or serious. Because the sunlight is now dyed blue, many things under the sun also have a blue luster, and white milk is no exception. Lulunaka may have just said it casually, or maybe she had actually added something to it that made the milk have such an eerie color.

But no matter what, Rei has already drunk the milk, and it would be too embarrassing for him to back down at this time. And his body is cold now, and the warmth in his hands makes him really reluctant.

In the end, he and Rei both drank the milk, and the only thing that reassured him was that Lunaka had also drunk the milk, and it didn't look like she was going to toss him and Lei.

As his body warmed up, Julius's brain began to come alive. "What the hell is going on?" Julius asked Lulunaka, "and the whole sky turned blue. ”

"Is there anything strange about the blue sky?" Lulunaka asked rhetorically.

"It's not funny. Julius frowned, "The blue sky is not what it is now...... Even the sun turned blue. ”

"We also saw that blue light underground. Rei asked, looking at Lulunaka with suspicion, "The timing was too coincidental, and it seemed like there were only a few of us in that place at the time......"

Lulunaka pointed to herself, "Are you doubting me?"

Julius and Rei didn't speak.

Lulunaka chuckled, "If you have doubts in your hearts, then what you say is not convincing. When you doubt me, you are also thinking to yourself, can this kind of thing really be done by one person?"

Julius did wonder if Lulunaka could really do such a thing alone? He had always thought she was a witch—no longer those thoughts now—and he thought she was a very special being, but when it became so big and so large, he began to doubt himself.

Maybe it's just that he's thinking too much, and it's just such a coincidence? But this coincidence is so ingenious.

Rei didn't know much about Lulunaka, she just thought that the timing was too coincidental, and with her knowledge of the sewers, she should have been in the deepest part of the underground at the time...... At least that's what she thinks.

"I said I did it, can you believe it?" Lulunaka asked as she crouched down in front of Rei and smiled at her.

This is indeed a very delicate question, and Rei does not know how to answer it. No matter what Lulunaka says, it doesn't seem to be credible. If she said yes, it was ridiculous, how did she do it, and if she said no, she had some questions in her mind that could not be explained.

While Rei was upset, Lulunaka was already walking towards the store, "Let's go inside." Julius said to Leigh. Rei nodded, followed him, and went inside the store.

When the two entered, they saw Pasta. Pasta still sat behind the counter, the cups on the counter steaming hot and the cloudy tea inside.

As for Lulunaka, she wasn't here, she seemed to have run to the attic, and there was the creak of a wooden ladder being trampled.

"Don't touch those things. Pasta said to Rei, his tone was flat, "If you're hurt, don't cry, or don't even have a chance to cry." ”

Pasta's tone of voice was not as if he was worried that the things in the store would be damaged by children, but as if he was worried that Rei would be hurt by the things displayed in the store.

Rei stared at Pasta for a moment, and she seemed to care more about Pasta's appearance than the strange items in the store. "Are you that Lulunaka's uncle?" she asked, and this was the question, which made Julius and Pasta stunned for a moment. It was late for Julius and Rei to come back last night, and Julius really didn't want to let Rei, the injured person, return to a place like the rat road, so he took her back. Pasta had not rested at that time—under that kind of sky, no one would have been able to sleep well—and when he saw Julius returning with a little girl, he didn't say anything, but let the two of them feel free.

At that time, Rei didn't have time to observe Pasta properly, but now that she had the time and energy, she asked this question.

"I am indeed her uncle. Pasta replied, then looked at Julius, "That's true, isn't it?" ”

Pasta's words to Julius sounded like a confirmation and a question, and the ambiguity of his tone made Julius not know how to answer.

Lei glanced at Julius and then at Pasta, "You said he was your uncle, right?"

Julius did say that, even if it was only a disguised identity. But when Rei says it, and she's right in front of Pasta, he finds it a little harder to admit that such a thing is "real". "Yes, he's my uncle. ”

"It's not good to lie to people. Rei said, then pointing to Pasta, "It doesn't feel like he's your loved one at all...... Not to mention this, is he really Lulunaka's uncle? How can anyone who is young be an uncle to an older person?"

Rei said this very interestingly, Pasta touched his beard, and looked thoughtful, "So in the eyes of others, is this what it is? ”

"Of course, the younger can be an uncle to the older. At this point, Lulunaka came down from the attic, behind Julius and Leigh.
