Charles's anomaly had already caught the attention of the others, and a man with a group of rats was so noticeable everywhere, and the number of people pointing at him began to increase.

"Don't worry. Charles, frowning slightly, led Lily to the street next to him.

"Are you sure it's your house, and that little girl is the original you?"

"Of course I'm sure, I look like that, it's obviously my mother. Lily's voice was sad.

"Tell your friends to disperse first, it's not easy to do it. ”

Lily squeaked twice, and the rats around her quickly dispersed, startling a female scream.

After Charles took Lily around the street, he returned to the little cottage,

At this time, in the small courtyard, Lily's mother had left, and only "Lily" was left sitting there reading a book.

"Don't talk later, let me test everything. ”

After looking left and right to find that there was nothing abnormal, Charles pushed open the wooden door and walked straight to her, "Lily?"

The little girl reading the book raised her head suspiciously, and when she saw Charles, her face changed, and she put down the book with her hands and ran towards the house in a panic.

"Huh?" Charles's left hand raised, and three invisible tentacles instantly wrapped around her.

Just when Charles thought that the little girl in front of him would reveal her true form, this "Lily" was just struggling desperately and shouting loudly. "Mommy!Mom!!Help!!"

Seeing this scene, Charles's face was filled with a trace of doubt, he had seen a lot of abnormal monsters that could deform, but this was the first time he had seen this kind of reaction.

He lifted "Lily" in front of him, took out the black knife and slashed hard, and scarlet blood bubbled up on the little girl's arm.

Licking the knife edge, Charles was surprised to find that it was really human blood.

Just then, the door opened next to her, and Lily's mother stepped out, a flintlock pistol in her trembling hand. "Let go of my daughter!

Ignoring the completely non-dangerous weapon in the woman's hand, Charles calmly looked at the little girl in front of him and asked, "Why did you run away when you saw me?"

The little girl looked terrified, but spoke quickly. "Because you smell of the sea, Dad said that anyone who smells of the sea is a bad person. ”

"Liar!!That's my dad!" Lily the white mouse was about to pounce on the little girl.

Charles grabbed the mouse, let go of the little girl and walked outside.

Everything that "Lily" showed was so normal, not at all like what she was disguised to be, which made Charles have a trace of doubt in his heart.

"Don't worry, let's investigate first. Charles pressed the white mouse's restless head.

Charles took Lily back to the port area, turned around, and came to a remote door.

After looking left and right to see that there was no one else, he knocked on it and whispered, "Look for your old and small ears." ”

The door opened silently, and Charles walked straight inside with Lily.

Inside is a messy warehouse, where a group of men with various tattoos on their faces are playing cards.

When Charles walked in with a swarm of rats, a thin man with a scar on his face stood up.

"Captain Charles, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you want to bring cargo again? I heard that you have got a big ship, and you can carry a lot of cargo. ”

Charles didn't bother to be polite to him, and took out a stack of echo coins and handed it over. "I need some information from Dr. Oliver. ”

Since you can't see the situation head-on, you can ask some ground snakes, maybe they have other clues.

The scar man smiled and took it with his right hand, which had no two fingers. "Well, there's no news on Coral Island that our Sea Serpent Gang can't find out. ”

It didn't take long for a piece of paper full of words to be pushed in through the crack in the door of Charles's residence, and after he took it and looked at it in detail, he looked at the white mouse on the ground with a somewhat complicated expression

"Lily, you went to see your grandfather's time, and you became a rat after being swept into the vortex?"

"yes, that's right. ”

"But...... Judging from what those guys have heard, your parents have been on the island for the last few years and have not gone to sea. ”

There was a deathly silence in the room.

After a full three seconds, Lily's eyes filled with disbelief and she said, "That...... That means ......"

In other words, that Lily is real, she is the real daughter of the Olivers, and she is not someone else pretending. ”

Since Dr. Oliver had never been to sea, he would not have been shipwrecked, and their daughter was certainly not likely to fall into the whirlpool.

"She's real, so who am I?" Tears continued to drip from the mouse's eyes.

Charles pondered the words and said, "Lily, although it is a little difficult to accept, the things in memory may not be true. ”

"No way!!I'm Lily!!I'm not a mouse!!I'm the real Lily!!" White Rat screamed hysterically.

Hearing Lily's shout, the brown rats quickly gathered around and squeaked with concern.

"Get out of here! I'm not your kind! I'm human! I'm human!" the brown rats spread out a little, but they always surrounded the crying white mice.

Charles didn't know what to say at this time, he had thought about many results, but he could never have imagined that this would be the case.

But if you think about it, it's reasonable, the world of Earthsea is so desperate.

Half an hour later, Lily, surrounded by rats, lay motionless on the ground, as if she had lost her soul. "Mr. Charles, do you think I'm really a mouse?"

Charles, who was sitting on a stool, was silent, and he didn't know how to answer this situation.

The white rats, who had no answer, slowly got up and walked towards the door in despair, followed by the brown mice.

"Where are you going?"

Lily's voice was aggrieved and pitiful. "I don't know...... But since it's a rat, maybe you should go to the sewers, Mr. Charles, thank you for taking care of you these days, you're a good guy. ”

The rats quickly swarmed in, and the doorknob was easily opened, and they followed the white rats towards the dimly lit hallway outside.

Looking at the mice in the distance, Charles showed a hint of irritation on his face. "Are you going to give up? are you going to go to the sewers and eat garbage for the rest of your life?"

Lily, with drooping ears, turned to look at Charles.

"Since you think you're human, and it's the Earth Sea that has turned you into this, then you should go to the sea and get everything back!, not run away!" he raised his voice.

"Man can't decide our fate, but we can decide the attitude to face difficulties, come back!

Lily's eyes were soaked with tears again, and the choked white mouse couldn't stop nodding. "Thank you, Mr. Charles, why are you helping me so much?"

Charles is not a warm-hearted person, but when he sees a desperate Lily walking out, he instinctively resists, and he is also a poor person who can't go home, and he is afraid that it will be his future self.
