Chapter 31: Will You Warm the Bed?
In the next few days, Rin finally returned to a regular two-point-one-line life.
Yunyin Association, and go home after being busy.
She shook her shoulders as she had been sorting and moving through the database these days. And the nature of this hard work also made her feel that her neck and shoulders were about to be her own.
Rin was almost tired when she got home and wanted to lie down, but Talos always made a mess of the house. She didn't even have the strength to lose her temper.
Perhaps this puppet is becoming more and more familiar with this home, and the original well-behaved restraint has gradually become gone.
Even when he was sleeping at night, the guy would run to her room at a certain time and quietly climb into her bed.
In the end, Rin was forced to have no choice but to order him to sleep on the sofa in the living room as the contract owner. This is the end of the matter.
Soon, it was the association's public holiday.
Rin flipped through the clues and walking routes that had been recorded intermittently over the past few days, and went out with Talos.
Before going out, she told Talos not to go too far from her, so as to prevent him from doing anything stupid on the street.
If memory serves, that village is near the Twilight River.
The ghost place that almost cost her her life, Rin Rin is afraid that she will never forget it in her life.
It's just that if there was a village nearby or something, she really didn't pay much attention at the time. And the documents in the database are also a bit old, and I don't know if the places recorded on them are still there.
The two looked at the map, and asked a lot of pedestrians on the way, and barely found the one.
It was a very small village, and since it was just below the border of the Twilight River, few outsiders entered.
However, there is an enchantment on all sides, which belongs to the geographical location of being surrounded, so it can be regarded as safe.
As she entered the village, Rin suddenly stopped.
Turning around, he grabbed Talos by the collar, pulled him in front of him, and said with a serious face, "Talos, you listen, you can't act without my orders." Even if you have my orders, you can't add fuel to that and carry them out yourself......"
There was a fire flickering in her eyes, as if as long as the puppet in front of her dared not listen to her, she would definitely dismantle him.
It's no wonder Rin Rin is so nervous, she wanted to praise Talos for his efficiency in the last incident in Winter Mantown.
But she didn't want to, when she asked how Talos had made the client compromise so quickly, Talos just said lightly, "I just told him that if he doesn't sign the receipt, he will bring Ah Qi back." The scene of snow falling and fire on the ground must be beautiful. ”
The client thought that the young man in front of him was just threatening him, but unexpectedly, in order to prove his integrity, Talos actually took out the wine gourd left by Ah Qi and shook it.
Then, I saw the liquid inside gushing out mixed with spiritual power!
For example, the nameless snow that plagued Dongman Town a few days ago slowly fell on the client's home.
Snowflakes flew and burned on the ground in an instant!
There were also a few snowflakes that fell on the client's head in twos and threes. made him feel even more sorry for his already few hairs in great fear.
In this way, in the unspeakable fear, he did not dare to delay for a moment, and signed the evaluation receipt of 'very satisfactory' to the Yunyin Association.
After hearing this, Rin Rin only felt afraid, and she was shocked and unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat.
I obviously just asked Talos to scare him, but I didn't expect this guy to be so dedicated.
It is estimated that the client's courage will be frightened, and I am afraid that he will not dare to entrust Yunyin to deal with things in the future.
However, through this incident, Rin also deeply realized that armed puppets have their own mode of thinking. At least that's how Talos is, he doesn't just do what he tells him to do.
So in order to prevent similar things from happening, it's better to keep an eye on him.
Even if she tied a chain, she couldn't let this stupid doll make trouble for herself.
After all, if someone catches evidence of these things, it will be passed on to the association. Not to mention that you have to accept punishment, you may accidentally lose your job.
This is not worth it.
Talos saw the firmness and seriousness in Rinrin's eyes, and nodded with a well-behaved look.
Rin let go of her hand, but she also felt that this contract spirit in her own house seemed to have become ...... It's getting harder and harder to deal with.
-
After entering the village, Rin began to look around about the collection of spirits.
Because of the Battle of Twilight, the demon envoys suffered heavy casualties. Then people began to contribute spirits and collect all kinds of demons and beasts for making armed dolls.
Although this kind of thing has become an absolute taboo now, it is not a topic that is strictly forbidden to be mentioned.
After all, it was a last resort to do so.
But somehow, the villagers here seemed to be very resistant to this matter, and their originally enthusiastic attitude also dropped to freezing point in an instant after Rin mentioned the requisition of the spirit.
Finally, from an old man selling fruit on the side of the road, Rin learned that there was a small memorial hall in the village. It records a list of people who contributed to the Battle of Twilight River that year.
Spirits that have been levied for whatever reason will have their names and known information written down on them.
Because in any case, it was the people who contributed to this battle, so it deserves to be remembered.
After thanking the old man, Rin also bought a few oranges and took Talos in the direction of the memorial.
It was only as he was leaving, that Talos suddenly looked behind him as if he suddenly noticed something.
"What's wrong?" Rin saw him standing still, and looked towards where his eyes were.
"It's nothing, maybe I'm wrong." Talos withdrew his gaze, only to feel as if something had flashed by. It's not very clear, but it's real.
The winter nights were already long, and when they arrived at the memorial, it was already closing time.
After all, this is just an inconspicuous small village, and it is still not easy to establish such a memorial hall.
Usually no one comes here to visit anything.
Therefore, the closing time is naturally very early, and even completely depends on the mood of the curator.
Rin knocked on the door, and saw that there didn't seem to be anyone left in the museum, so she had to find a place to live first, and wait for tomorrow morning to come over.
Talos touched the lock, which was covered with quaint ornamentation and dots of rust.
He gripped the lock back into his palm, and the angular lock bumped against his slightly hard resin skin with a 'clattering' sound.
Seeing this, Rin suddenly jumped on the spot and slapped Talos on the forehead, "Let go!" Don't think I don't know what you're thinking! ”
Rin Rin's almost hurried shot didn't hurt it, but it also gave Talos enough deterrence.
Talos flattened his mouth and quickly retracted his hand, the rust stains on his palms that had just been left from rubbing against the iron locks.
Don't think she doesn't know, this puppet just wants to take advantage of people's unpreparedness and forcibly pull the lock down.
But if they do so, they will become thieves!
It seems that he also wants to popularize safety awareness and basic right and wrong knowledge for Talos.
After that, Rin found a small hotel in the village for a while, and only waited until dawn tomorrow to explore the memorial.
The small village was quiet at night, Rin had just finished washing, and was sitting by the window with her long brown hair.
She braided her bangs sideways and pulled them behind her ears.
It looks very refreshing, but it doesn't lose the girlish feeling that she should have at this age.
The wind on the winter night was a little cold, but Rin just looked out the window at the pitch black, not knowing what to think.
After a while, Talos came out of the bathroom. Strands of hair hung in front of his forehead, and from time to time water dripped down, and everywhere he could get on the floor, it was wet.
Rin looked back at him and sighed helplessly. He then removed the towel from his neck and sat Talos over to help him wipe his hair.
His hair is soft, not even indistinguishable from that of ordinary people.
If not every joint on his body, it is connected by the spherical joints of the doll's characteristics. It's really hard to believe that such a beautiful boy would be a puppet.
She rubbed Talos's hair thoughtfully, but suddenly she heard what seemed to be a soft sound of music outside the window.
Rin leaned back to the window to look in, but there was still nothing outside, only the faint sound of music, and it went farther and farther.
Probably because the people in the village couldn't sleep, and they were playing some musical instrument.
After all, the music didn't feel so harsh and ugly in the middle of the night, but after a long time, it felt a little peaceful.
Rin was thinking about it, and when she turned around, she saw Talos standing behind her with a towel on her head.
Talos's hand reached towards Rinrin, but with a grab, a strand of broken spiritual power thread was held in his hand.
"What is this?" Rin leaned closer and blinked, but she didn't see the clue.
"I don't know, it's just that when the music started just now, I felt a hint of familiarity flashing through me. I tried to stop it and shout, but I caught it. ”
As he spoke, Talos let go of his hand.
In the palm of his hand is a black-gray filament woven by spiritual power. Because he lost the core source of spiritual power, he only fluttered in the air for a few moments before dissolving and disappearing.
This should be tied to the music just now, coming from a distance, in order to attract or convey some kind of message.
"Familiar breath?"
Rin muttered to herself, it seemed as if Talos had told her before, so she always felt a little unreliable.
But that's better than nothing.
Maybe when they get to the memorial tomorrow, they'll be able to find some relevant clues.
Thinking of this, Rin Rin jumped down from the window, ready for a good night's sleep, and recuperated in his energy.
But when her eyes fell on the bed, she saw that Talos had already been lying down uninvited.
even intimately lifted a corner of the quilt for himself and said, "Rin, come on, the bed is already warm." ”
Rin instantly black line, you stupid puppet with a cold body, which door can warm the bed!
In addition to being indignant, I don't know where Talos learned these indecent things!
"Who's going to sleep with you!" In a fit of rage, Rin lifted the quilt and wrapped Talos in it, kicking him out of bed.
……
The next morning, the two arrived at the memorial hall in the village early.
As you can see from the outside, the space inside is not large, and there are no exquisite furnishings. It was simply an unknown object, and a few things like a roster.
It's just that these things are surrounded by knotted ropes, and there is no way to take them out, which makes it a little difficult for them.
Rin waved her hand and motioned for Talos to look at the roster inside, after all, the two of them would be quicker after all.
At this time, the director of the memorial hall slowly walked out of it.
He didn't show the same indifference to the strangers he hadn't seen for a long time. It was only after asking what he meant that he pushed his old gold-rimmed glasses with his fingers, and looked Talos up and down before he spoke leisurely.
