The puppet's movements were discovered by the girl as soon as possible.

She looked at the puppet in her arms in a daze and asked hesitantly, "Bony?" ”

The puppet turned its head, jumped out of the girl's arms, and stood directly in front of the girl.

The girl's eyes widened and she called "Bony" again. This time there was a lot of surprise in the tone.

The puppet took two steps in front of the girl and extended his hand to her.

The girl took the puppet's hand, picked it up, and happily circled in place. She let out a hearty laugh, "Bony" and "Bony" non-stop, and the surprise was palpable.

The cheerful voice was interrupted by a knock on the door.

The girl stopped jumping in circles, held the puppet in her arms, and threw herself on the door, "Mr. Bear! Did you bring Bony back to life? Thank you! Mr. Bear! Oh, my God! Thank you! ”

Knock knock.

"Oh, ah...... I...... How can I help you? I can't get the key......" the girl said in a low voice.

The puppet jumped out of the girl's arms and stood in the doorway, and the stickman knocked on the door.

The girl tilted her head in disbelief, "Yes...... Break this door? But this ......"

The girl pressed her hands on the door, and with all her strength, she couldn't push the door. She tried to punch and kick again, but it only hurt her hands and feet.

The girl looked pitifully at the puppet.

The puppet shook his head at the girl, knocked on the door again, and the other stick hand lifted up, as if to gesture something.

The structure of this puppet is not much like that of a teddy bear, and its limbs are all wooden sticks, so it is not able to make complex movements at all. Its expression was also fixed, and it could only face the girl with that crooked face.

The girl has no tacit understanding with it, no telepathy.

After racking her brains and guessing several times, only to get a response from the puppet shaking her head, the girl finally gave up completely and sat on the ground.

"If only I could know what you're thinking......" the girl muttered, a flash of inspiration in her mind, "That's right! I know what you're thinking! ”

I felt the flow of power in the girl's body.

She didn't create a space, she just used her ability to communicate with the puppets.

She succeeded.

The puppet's consciousness is intermittent and unstructured, but after repeating the same word several times, the girl understands its meaning.

"You want to stay? Why? You...... Don't stay with me anymore? The girl asked sadly.

The puppet shook its head, and the thought that came back to him included the word "bear".

"You want to stay here with Mr. Bear? So what do I do? "The girl is still sad.

The puppet walked up to the girl and patted the back of the girl's hand with a stick.

"Keys?" The girl received another word.

She clenched her fists, "Hmm! I'll definitely get the keys! She turned around and looked at the puppet pitifully, "But, but...... Can't you stay with me when I go to find the key? Do you want to stay here? ”

The puppet gave an affirmative answer.

"What if you stay here in case someone finds out?"

"What if Kahlan asks me where you've been?"

"Please...... Don't let me go back alone. We've never been apart. ”

The girl gave many reasons and pleaded several times. The puppet still shook its head.

The girl stopped talking, so she put on a sad face and sat there for a long time. But she couldn't convince the puppet, so she could only stand up and leave step by step.

Walking away, the girl turned and waved at the puppet, "Wait for me!" I'll be back with the keys soon! ”

Puppets in the distance are also waving.

The girl put down her hand, stood there and took a deep breath, then turned around and ran out as fast as she could.

I looked back at the puppet and watched the scene in the hallway slowly crumble. New scenes are set up.

The girl and Karan sat facing each other, and the two were eating.

The girl pretended to be a little careless and asked about Kah'an's seal.

"That's the legacy of the great Ertos." Kahlan smiled, "There are quite a few legacies like this in the association. ”

The girl didn't understand.

"We are superpowers, and our abilities are innate. But the founder of the Society, the Great Jana, created a tool that could leave us with power after we died. Karan said.

I looked at Karan in surprise.

"Of course, the ability to stay is very limited. Abilities can only be maintained in that fixed state, and can no longer be changed, enhanced, or extended to some way of being used. "If I die now, my abilities will only stay at 400 to 500 degrees Celsius, and the only thing that can be destructive is to destroy an object the size of a basketball court." It couldn't have been any stronger. ”

"Oh......" the girl still seemed to understand.

I looked at Karan, and his gaze had changed.

This woman's superpower is fire, and I've seen this before. This superpower should be the most ...... Boring. There isn't much variability. In other words, in film and television dramas, the flame superpower is probably very cool. But in reality, the effect of this superpower that I can think of is very monotonous.

She might be able to burn the ghosts. It's like Ye Qing can beat the ghost to the ground with one fist. And that's all. Pure destructive power.

Hearing what Kahlan said at this moment, I realized that everyone's superpowers can be evolved.

The same is true of Karan's expectations of himself. She's not just looking for destructive power.

"If only I could do more with the flames. Well, let's say, create something. Karan's hand ran across the table, leaving a blackened mark on it. Kahlan shook his head, "There is no point in my abilities being left behind forever. This is too far from Ertos. ”

The girl said, "I think your abilities are cool!" ”

Kahlan smiled, "Your abilities have the meaning of being left behind forever. ”

"Ah......h

"Try to get stronger. Your abilities will be an important force for the association. ”

"Oh......" The girl nodded, and after a moment she realized that this was not what she was trying to say. She struggled for a moment, staring at Kahlan and stirring up the conversation a second time, talking about the seal.

"Hmm. While Artos was alive, the seal was free. He can lock things up whenever he wants. Karan said.

I realized I had been wrong in my previous guess. It's not about imprisoning time, it's about imprisoning the ontology. But what about the living things? How is this sealed? It's the same as going to jail, and there is also time to eat and relax?

"After he died, his abilities were fixed, and it became a place like another dimension. That entrance is inside the association. Kahlan continued.

The girl nodded. She'd already entered that alternate dimension.

"The control of abilities has also become mechanical, and it is not that Ertos controls it directly by his own consciousness, but that he is equipped with a key. A key opens a door. The number of things that can be sealed is also limited to the number 107. ”

Again, I was amazed.

107, that's the original number of files in Aoba!

This number ...... Is there any special significance?

"Oh." The girl didn't think much about it at all, and accepted this setting very casually.

"The association assigns the keys, and everyone who has a position gets some keys that they can use freely. The power of Ertos has become the public property of the association. Karan smiled, "This is how each of us contributes to the association. And the association will make the world a better place. The evil things that kill our family and friends will one day be completely exterminated by us. When the time comes...... No one will go through the things that we went through......"

The girl's mind full of keys disappeared, and she laughed as she looked at Karan's smile.

At this moment, a vision of the future was born in her heart. That future has no concrete appearance, but it makes her full of strength.
