Hearing this, Lan Yang looked at Xia Jing in astonishment.

After Xia Jing shook her head at her, she hugged her, and then quietly began to sob.

And so

Xia Jing patted Lan Yang on the shoulder and smiled at Ana.

"There you go...... Anai. ”

"Thank you, Lord Xia Jing."

After bowing respectfully to Xia Jing, she also saluted Ye Ya and the others.

Then she spun around and walked through the doors of the Lost House without hesitation.

After watching Ana's back disappear into the sea of fire, Natsu closed his eyes.

It would be a lie to say that you are not sad and sad.

Anai is an out-and-out sister, even if she has become another existence now, the shadow of the past still exists.

Shadows, memories. In short, memories.

However, that may not be suitable for Xia Jing to stay by his side.

It's better to let the person who values it more than Xia Jing take it away.

Together with the memories of childhood.

Let the beautiful and gentle, Xia Jing once fell in love with the girl.

Let that girl who Xia Jing couldn't do anything for her

「…… Farewell, sister."

Sparks flew in the sky.

It's like dancing slowly in the wind.

It was like a heavy red snow falling from the sky.

When Ye Chun was lying in the sea of fire with her eyes closed, someone suddenly held her hand.

Ye Chun was surprised, and a woman's figure came into view.

"What are you doing here?"

Ye Chun asked, and she replied:

"I'll follow, Miss."

Ye Chun straightened her face, suspecting that Xia Jing's gang had ordered her to come.

So she sneered rudely.

"You didn't hear my orders, didn't you? Go back quickly. Then recognize Xia Jing as your master."

And yet—she shook her head in surprise.

"Forgive me."

"Are you messing around? This is my command."

Ye Chun was stunned and wanted to shake off her hand.

It's hard to be mentally prepared for death alone, so it's just a lot of worrying in vain.

Nowadays, I don't expect anyone to accompany me on a journey. There is no reason to accept the sympathy of Xia Jing's gang.

So Ye Chun shouted, "Get out."

"Forgive me."

But she still insisted on not leaving. As if emphasizing her determination, she shook Ye Chun's hand even harder and said

"Because、Ana is、The lady's maid."

"You ......"

Ye Chun couldn't squeeze out the strength to refute her.

"Really? That's as pleasing to you."

Close your eyes again.

There is no body temperature in the palm of the hand.

Because it is a corpse, it is normal to have no body temperature.

Tongues of fire enveloped the room, burning to the pillars and ceiling. Collapse is only a question that is being asked.

Blood gushed from the wound in the abdomen. Ye Chun had no intention of curing it.

With a lot of blood loss and smoke, which side will put itself into a coma first? Anyway, it doesn't matter how you die in the end.

「…… Ah."

Ye Chun asked the cold-touched Anai who was holding his right hand:

"Do you remember when you died?"

"I don't remember."

Anai seemed to shake her head.

"It's the opposite of what we are playing now. You're lying while I hold your hand. Then your body gradually loses temperature...... Ahhhhhhhhhhh

So Ye Chun smiled lightly and called her real name.

"Remember that time...... I'm crying."

That was the last time Ye Chun shed tears.

She didn't cry when she was sure she was sick.

It's the same when I know that the real biological mother is Ah Le.

Even when she was rejected by Xia Jing just now, she was obviously so desperate, but she didn't shed tears.

However, Ye Chun still remembers

Remember her mourning when she died.

Remember what it's really like to lose someone you cherish.

"I'm sorry, Miss."

Anai somehow bowed his head and apologized.

"Ana, I can't help it, cry."

"It's okay."

That look was really ridiculous, Ye Chun laughed softly.

「…… Ya."

"Yes."

Ye Chun, whose consciousness was gradually blurred, spoke, "Our agreement. said that he would make an agreement to live with Xia Jing and the three of them. Failed to deliver on its promise...... I'm sorry."

It's possible that it's just an illusion.

Or maybe it's the dreams created by death before life withers.

But Ye Chun heard it.

Clear and unquestionable.

Really—I heard.

"You don't have to take it personally, Ye Chun."

It's exactly the same as before—Ya's voice.

"Because I know that you are the one who likes summer scenery the most in this world."

The warm spring sun is warm.

Facing the wind blowing towards the forest, it was a little hot, but suddenly it was cooler and more comfortable. Coupled with the crisp birdsong and the rustling sound of the treetops swinging in his ears, Lin Yu couldn't help but smile.

The reconstruction of the village was finally completed a few days ago.

Compared with the previous days when there were many houses, it may seem much bleak and deserted. Although it was rebuilt, it was small, with only a few homes and farmland, and a small temple was built in the middle.

However, it took seven years to rebuild on this scale.

In the first year, the time was exhausted just by razing the barren land, and for the next three years, only temples were built to pay tribute to the dead, and progress stalled. It was only after that preparations for the reconstruction began, and after the preliminary work such as raising funds and designing the house, the full-scale construction stage was only a year ago.

After all, everyone has their own life. Besides, you can't let unrelated outsiders enter here, so no matter how big or small, you can only do it by yourself. It will be so time-consuming, and it is also a helpless result.

Lin Yu has settled here from today.

Others have other residences elsewhere, so they plan to use this place as a villa.

Therefore, in addition to Lin Yu, there is only Lanyang left who treats this place as an official home.

Of course, there is a feeling of loneliness. However, Lin Yu felt that there was nothing wrong with being like this now.

It's a place to reminisce about the old days, like a hometown that you occasionally come back to visit. It is already an anachronism to want a family to get together and live a life of seclusion.

"Lin Yu!"

Just as Lin Yu was casually walking around to take a look, a loud voice calling her name came from afar.

At the other end of the farmland, there is a figure waving a registered ponytail and waving his hand.

"Sister Anno."

After the name was called, the man came running from the other end with a trot.

"What about the others?"

"Not yet. Sister Anno, are you...... I'm the first to report for duty."

The inauguration ceremony will be held today.

It's not a big event, but it's a rare gathering for everyone.

"Then again......

After Lin Yu looked An Ye's whole body up and down, he was a little stunned.

"When you change into civilian clothes, you look like a child."

A hooded jacket with jeans, canvas shoes on the feet, and a hairstyle. It's a lot different from the impression that Anno usually wears a suit.

"What's the matter? Anyway, my age stops at nineteen."

Yasano's face was not red and he was out of breath and bragged.

"You don't even look like you're my age."

"Is this looking for ballast...... I can't imagine that the little ones in the past have become great beauties now."

"I don't know if you're complimenting me or belittling me."

Although Anye turned around with his fist against Lin Yu's head, the two were almost the same height, so they didn't look more vigorous.

In fact, from the appearance alone, there is almost no sense of age difference between the two.

In general, the aging rate of the upper deer clan is quite slow. People in their forties tend to look like they are in their twenties, and they don't look middle-aged until at least they are over fifty.

However, whether such a constitution is fortunate or unfortunate for women? Judging from Anno's dress, it is not wrong to say that it is unfortunate.

At this time, the phone rang, and it was from Anno's mobile phone.

"Hey?"

Yasuno quickly picked up his phone to answer. From that tone, the content should have nothing to do with work.

Looking at her small appearance, she is also an excellent consultant, which is really flattering. It's just that the word "excellent" is what she calls herself. She herself said that she is so busy with work that she doesn't have time to think about getting married, but God knows if she has a partner.

"yes, I see. I'll see you later."

"Who called?"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yu asked.

"Sister Aye. She said that her husband had left his work papers at home and forgot to bring them, and she had to deliver the documents before rushing over."

"Then she'll have to wait a little bit."

"According to her, it's about thirty minutes late. In other words, they are still very affectionate."

「…… I think I'll love you for the rest of your life."

After all, they have been promoted from childhood sweethearts to husband and wife, and they shouldn't be able to change. When it comes to her husband, Ah Ye is like the two of them as usual, and until now Lin Yu still can't get used to that gap.

"What about Mrs. Sand?"

"She called just now and said she would be late."

About ten minutes ago.

The moment he picked up the phone, the other end was babbling to himself. Hello ~ Hello ~ Lin Yu? I'm Xiangxiang. It's a bit of a traffic jam on the road right now, ah, do you want to talk to Sasha? Don't use it? Hey, what is Mrs. Sand doing? Mrs. Sand is driving her. Anyway, that's it.

After saying what he wanted to say, the other party immediately hung up the phone - just thinking about it gave Lin Yu a headache.

In the past, Lin Yu had nothing to do with those two twins. After the dust settles on the battle with the Prosperity Faction, Sunako adopts the twins and teaches them strictly, hoping that they will become the saint's right and left hands, but instead of correcting their personalities, they have become more deafening.

In the past, Sand had complained that her daughter had been affected by those two fools recently. Sando's daughter seems to prefer the appearance of being with a happy big sister to a strict mother.

When Lin Yu smiled bitterly while reminiscing, An Ye muttered with some regret, "It seems that it will have to wait a little longer before it starts."

"yes. Would you like to have some tea first?"

"Can I go in?" Isn't it officially unfinished yet?"

"We moved into our house yesterday. Moreover, there was already one person who arrived first."

"Ah, I see. Yasuno said. Lin Yu nodded.

"Well, I stayed overnight yesterday."

Lin Yu and Lan Yang's new home is a Japanese-style house with a straw house.

Although it is not very spacious, it is more than enough for two people to live, and in all fairness, there is no need to make it into a magnificent mansion. As long as there are occasional guests who come to stay overnight, it is enough to provide a comfortable and not cramped space.

There is a cherry blossom tree next to the house. The cherry blossoms were planted seven years ago, and there is a small tombstone under the tree. It was moved from a lost house that burned down seven years ago.

The cherry blossom tree only bloomed for the first time last year. It's almost half open now, and it should be fully open soon.

Lan Yang, who was sitting by the hearth, noticed Lin Yu and An Ye's entrance, and turned his head to face them.

"Welcome."

Lan Yang showed a calm smile.

She looks exactly the same as seven years ago, and now her expression is much richer, and her words and deeds are more mature. Someone should really use her as an example.

"Yo, Sister Lanyang."

As if he was his own home, he swaggered into the room and waved hello to Lan Yang.

Then she crouched down and turned her face to the little girl who was peeking at her with a little fear. "Sister Xiaoya, how are you doing?"

I saw that the little girl seemed to be frightened and jumped, and shrank behind Lan Yang's back to hide.

"Good afternoon, good afternoon...... Aunt Anno."

"Huh? Who do you say is Auntie?"

An Ye rubbed Xiao Ya's black hair without seeing it, but Xiao Ya really looked timid.

"Really...... Sister Anye, you love the whole person so much, she will always be so afraid of you."

Lin Yu sighed and hugged Yu Nai.

"Xiaoya is the same, you are already four years old, how can you be so afraid of life. Be brave, or you'll be scolded by your father."

"Dad won't scold people......

"Ahhh......hh That's right."

They all forgot that her father was a person who overdoted on his daughter.

"But her personality is so weak, and people are really worried about her in the future. I don't know whose personality I inherited."

As he spoke, Lin Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

Lin Yu knew very well which person Xiao Ya looked like. Although I had never met that person before.

However, she guessed that the impression that person gave was almost like Xiaoya.

"What about Xiaoya's parents?"

Yasuno, who was sitting cross-legged, asked.

She had already done it herself, poured the tea into the medicine jar hanging above the hearth and drank it.

「…… You're getting more and more manly every year, so be careful that you won't be able to get married."

"I'm just going to say that you are nagging more and more year by year, so you can't get married."

After Lin Yu and An Ye finished talking, they looked at each other and smiled, then looked at the wall clock on the wall and said:

"I guess they're both getting there soon."

"I just got a text message."

Lan Yang on the side added.

"They're going up the mountain, and they're still very concerned about whether Xiaoya will feel lonely."

"Who sent the SMS?"

"Mom."

It seems that the father is not the only one who dotes on his daughter.

"Then let's wait."

After Lin Yu sighed, he handed Xiaoya over to Lan Yang to take care of.

"I'm going to get some snacks."

Turning his back to An Ye and Lan Yang, who had started chatting happily in the atmosphere, Lin Yu thought to himself.

Everyone has gone their separate ways.

Some get married, some have children, some work hard, and some live a free and casual life.

- It's just like a human being.

The deer clan will probably be cut off in our generation. Even if the bloodline of the demon will continue, it is not the same thing as the deer clan. The relationship between the deer clan can only end with Xiaoya at best.

It is said that the Holy One is considering abolishing it in the future. If Xiaoya and Shazi's daughter have no plans to perform rituals in the future, then Sheng will retire successfully. Unless Lin Yu, Anye and the two twins get married and have children in the future, the situation is a different story—but so far, there is no sign that these four people are getting married and having children. Really, the future of these people is really worrying.
