In the dark,

Mike saw a ray of light.

Confusion, loss, pain, and—

Miss.

Mike chased the light, and he could vaguely distinguish the figure in the light.

"Charlotte!"

However, no matter how much he shouted, the girl always left him with only his back and his footsteps.

The light, farther and farther away from him, Mike used the last of his strength to reach out and try to catch the last light......

"Charlotte!"

Mike suddenly woke up from his bed-

I said...... Fatty, can you please take your hand off my lap? In his ears, a familiar voice sounded, which made Mike feel inexplicably relieved.

Mike retracted his hand awkwardly and shyly scratched his hair, "William...... Uh, you've come to see me? As he spoke, Mike's eyes suddenly noticed the girl leaning against the door, looking at him coldly.

Now, Mike is even more embarrassed. He was screaming so loudly just now that Charlotte didn't hear it.

“…… I didn't expect Charlotte to come too. ”

Peter slapped the fat man on the shoulder unceremoniously, "The dead fat man who is unrighteous and doesn't care about his brother when he sees his goddess?" ”

Mike laughed, and Peter babbled on something, and he didn't get a word out. Now his mind is full of thoughts, when he was favored by the gods, and the goddess really came to his side.

The previous fears had been swept away from the moment the goddess Charlotte appeared—if William hadn't brought it up again.

"So, fatty, what's the matter with you? I suddenly didn't come to class today, and I don't look like you have a fever. ”

Mike shuddered, shrunk into the quilt, looked around in fear, and whispered "I...... Yesterday, I saw my sister. ”

Yan Yurou frowned, and she guessed the reaction of the others.

"Your sister...... Isn't she dead, how did you see her yesterday? Zhou asked in a calm tone.

Thinking back to what he had experienced yesterday, Mike was terrified again, and he tried to control his emotions and tell everyone what had happened, and of course he naturally filtered all things like Charlotte's yy.

"If you're not joking, fatty," William's face turned a little pale after hearing this, and he thought of a possibility, "Could it be that the demon did the disappearance case in the town all along?!" ”

It's ridiculous, but fat people aren't so bored as to joke about this kind of thing, and who else but demons can do it again.

Yanyurou noticed a problem, the curse of the witch that Anna told her was not all known even to those who lived in small towns, at least, judging by the reactions of these people, it was impossible for them to know. But......

The girl stopped her gaze on the expressionless Zhou on the side, since he wanted to find out the truth for some purpose, he must have known about the witch's curse, but he didn't say it.

"Look what I'm doing." Zhou, who had been thinking about the smoke and rain, naturally felt the former's gaze and asked coldly.

Yan Yurou didn't answer, and looked at Mike, "I'm leaving." ”

Seeing the goddess leave without looking back, Mike wanted to say something, but never said it. He just shook his head with a wry smile, "See you at school...... Charlotte. ”

"If it's okay, I'll be gone, Mike." Zhou came to observe Yanyurou, and even the object of observation was gone, and there was no point in him staying here.

"Hmm...... Be careful on the road. "The fat man is not stupid, he and Zhou are actually not good friends, and it is estimated that they came because of the smoke and rain.

- I'm really out of my own power.

It's dusk, and although the sky has darkened at this time of autumn, for some reason, the sun today is unexpectedly shining under the dark clouds.

Yan Yurou walked in front, her hands in the pockets of her trench coat, and her boots made a clattering sound as she walked on the empty and deserted street. Her gaze stayed in front of her, and even if Zhou followed her like a stalker, there was no point in turning around and talking.

"You heard the witch curse from Anna, didn't you?" What Zhou said was very ordinary, plain, as if this matter was as casual as a few greetings from strangers.

Finally, the smoke and rain stopped.

The breeze passed by her at this moment, blowing the girl's hair and the hem of her clothes. She turned her head, her gaze still cold and calm.

"So what?"

"Now that Mike is involved, I feel compelled to tell him."

Yan Yurou frowned, she was puzzled, very confused. "Then why didn't you tell them?" Zhou doesn't look like a fool, can't he even think of such a simple question?

"Because I'm ......," Zhou choked suddenly.

It seems like that's the case, why didn't you just tell them about it? Could it be because I saw that she didn't say it, so I ......

Zhou hurriedly stopped his ridiculous idea, it was absolutely impossible. How could he not dare to disrupt her actions by casually speaking because he considered that she had no intention of not saying it!

"What are you kidding—" Zhou shouted inwardly.

"Huh? Son, why are you here? ”

The mother's appearance successfully interrupted the embarrassment that Zhou couldn't answer.

"Mom." He turned around and called out with a grateful look. He was not surprised to meet his mother, after all, at this time she would buy ingredients at the nearby market. "Today, my classmate is sick, so I just went to his house to have a look."

"Oh, that's it."

Yan Yurou glanced at Zhou Li's mother, even though there were a few deep wrinkles carved on her face now, she still couldn't hide her charm. She must have been a beauty when she was young.

At this time, Zhou's mother noticed the smoke and rain in front of her, and when she saw the girl's beautiful face, even Zhou's mother was stunned for a long time. "Who is this......?"

"Ah, my classmate, who was transferred to our class yesterday." Zhou was a little helpless, since he bumped into his mother, he had to introduce, "Charlotte, this is my mother." Ariana. Week. ”

"Hello Mrs. Zhou." Yanyurou's tone softened a little.

"Oh, just call Auntie." Mrs. Zhou replied in fluent Chinese. "I didn't expect that there was a second Chinese in this town, and this kid Zhou was lucky."

"Mom...... What are you talking about...... "Zhou found that his mother seemed to be particularly enthusiastic about Charlotte?"

Mrs. Zhou ignored her son, and took Yan Yurou's hand to herself, "Take the liberty of asking, what is Charlotte's Chinese name?" ”

There is no rule that agents can't say their names when they're out on a mission, but Yan Yurou is now abroad, so she uses her English name.

"Smoke and rain." Therefore, Yan Yurou has no reason to refuse to tell her real name.

"Then Xiaorou, do you want to come to my house for dinner?"

As soon as Mrs. Zhou's words came out, the two of them were stunned at the same time.

"Huh?"
