Chapter 5: Meeting in Half (3/3)

The night, half of the moon, half of it is hidden in the shadows, and the other half is exposed to the world.

The lamp is not bright, and can only illuminate a small part of the entrance. It was such a faint light that only the shawl-haired woman could be found, and where she was.

Next to the phone next to the entrance.

"Husband, why don't you come back? Leave the child to me alone to take care of, and I shouldn't have adopted that child if I knew it. The woman's voice was very urgent, but there was no reply on the phone, and the busy tone of the beep represented everything.

On the other end of the phone, no one was answering the phone.

The dull busy tone of the phone seemed to have caused another voice, buried in the darkness, one after another, trying to suppress the sound of crying.

"That man...... You don't even care about me......"

The woman spoke slowly, but her eyes were gloomy, like a sinking ground, almost sinking into an invisible abyss.

There was a soft snap, and she hung up the phone.

Barefoot, walking on the floor of the house. From the entrance, there is a long walkway, and the walls are pasted with one table after another, and the most recent one has a large red cross painted on it.

There was a muffled click, and the half-hidden door was pulled open. The window was not opened, the moonlight outside the window could not penetrate at all, and the whole room was dark.

But as the door opened, a little light came through the crack. But soon it was blocked again, by the woman with her hair.

"You're just like me, so why are you still so useless?"

The woman blocked the light, and no matter how hard she tried, it could not penetrate the room. In this darkness, you can only faintly see a narrow cage, kneeling a young girl. He was struggling to suppress his sobs.

"What are you not doing well...... "The woman seemed to have no soul. Stand motionless in front of the cage. Talking lifelessly.

Except for the suppressed sobs, echoing her words, there was silence outside the window.

As if feeling the tragedy that is coming, the girl in the cage. Struggling to make noises.

"Right...... Don't ...... Mommy ......"

The girl said this, but the woman did not hear her, no, though the girl's voice was very small. But it can still be heard. But to the woman, who seemed to have lost her soul, there was no sound, not a single sound.

So she was still talking, speaking very calmly.

"Why can't you understand my troubles? Why do you never want to help me relieve my troubles? ”

Unwarranted accusations, but without any quibbles, not even a defense. The girl in the cage, only sorry, sorry one after another.

Intermittently, like a dying baby.

"You...... Hate me put. Hate me. ”

But the woman did not stop, but continued to speak slowly. Her words. It was as if the sharpest knife had been plunged straight into the girl's heart.

"Won't ......"

The girl said with an effort. She could barely make any sounds. There was only an intermittent sound, coming from inside the cage.

"No, you hate me. If you want me to suffer, you will rebel against me. Right. ”

The woman's voice almost trembled as she spoke.

"How could it be...... No......" the girl argued. It's just that her voice sounded so weak, like a little beast that had been bitten by a lion on the throat, and she couldn't even hear the sound of breathing.

"Neither that person, nor you, need me. This is not my home. This is not my place to live. I...... Can't stay here......"

"Mom...... Mommy ......"

"Won't you spare me?"

"Please...... Mom. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Mom is so useless, see you again. See you again, Yuno. ”

As she spoke, the woman turned around.

Only the girl in the cage, still struggling and shouting, "Wait...... Wait......"

Her voice was soft, as weak as the moonlight that could not shine outside. Nothing can be done, nothing can be changed.

Except for a soft thud.

It was a "poof", like a sharp dagger, popping out of a spring and buzzing into the air.

The woman who had walked out of the alley slowly walked back. It's just that behind her, there is a person who follows. A man who can't see his face clearly.

The door was gently pulled open.

A bright light pierced directly into the completely dark room. The light, silver, was very dazzling, like a dagger, and it was cold.

Before the girl in the cage could react, she had already heard the words coming from outside the door.

"Is this my wife's house?"

The girl didn't speak, just looked up blankly and looked at the person standing outside the door. Own mother...... And the man standing behind his mother, hidden in his hood.

It should be a man, taller than his father, but the whole person's face is hidden in the hood, and he can't see it clearly. His left hand clenched into a fist, and a dagger glowing from under his wrist came out and rested firmly on his mother's throat.

"It's really ......"

The man laughed softly, his wrist raised slightly, and a little red immediately appeared on the dagger. Mom's throat was cut by him.

"This woman, no matter what, her silence can easily lead to mental illness. You might as well say a few words, say, tell me where the key to this cage is. ”

"Mom's ......"

Yuno in the cage continued to sob, calling out to her mother weakly. But the woman looked at Yuno in the cage silently as if she was dead, sneering, laughing and crying at the same time.

Tick.

Her tears, straight down her cheeks, dripped down the dagger that was across her neck, and made a crisp sound.

"Didn't you answer......

The man behind him sighed slowly, as if he had discovered something helpless. His voice was a little small, but the room was smaller, so Yuno could hear it clearly. Just listen to him.

"I'm only going to kill. Stun people. Still not very skilled. ”

He said. The right hand, which had been hanging low, was raised suddenly, and with a bang, it struck the back of the woman's head. The woman didn't even snort, but fell limply. But it didn't die.

"I said......" The man was about to speak, but was surprised to find that the girl in the cage seemed to be frightened and turned her back to him. Shivering.

Smiling slightly, seeing the situation in front of him, the person who came laughed. He looked good when he laughed, first with a slight grin at the corners of his mouth, and then with two white front teeth.

He walked slowly, around the cage. He didn't have slippers, he walked on the straw mat with his shoes on. It's just that his steps are so light, so light that even the girls in the cage who are close at hand don't hear his footsteps, and they can't even hear his breathing clearly.

But. The next move was clearly seen by the girl in the cage.

Because it's loud.

There was a "whoosh" sound.

The girl's eyes snapped shut. Staying in the dark for a long time made her unable to adapt to the sudden sight of light. This made her eyes hurt a little, and she couldn't help but close them.

Slowly, the girl seemed to feel her eyes and was able to adapt to the light. She slowly opened her eyes, and then lowered her head.

For the first time, I was able to see the light in the cage, and the moonlight like water shone in front of me. Just in the next second, a shadow appeared in front of him.

The girl immediately raised her head in fright and looked at the person who appeared in front of her, but her eyes drifted slightly. Because behind that person, there is a moonlight that the girl wants to see, but it is difficult to see.

"My wife Yuno ......"

The person in front of him seemed to notice Yuno's desire for moonlight, so he simply squatted down and squatted in front of her. Immediately the moonlight burst out from behind him with cheers and shone on my wife's Yuno's face, and on her face that was still teary-eyed.

"Hmmm......"

My wife, Yuno, nodded slightly, but her voice was already extremely quiet.

"Introduce yourself." The person who came didn't mind the girl's shyness, but there was a funny feeling in and out of the words, "My name is Liu Mengchao, and I'm a killer." ”

"Killer?"

"Yes, killer." The visitor simply sat down, and he could see that he was in good spirits, with a smile on his face, "I'm lost, and I don't have any money on me, so I'm going to come in and get some." ”

"Take a little ......?"

My wife, Yuno, seemed to be speechless, and could only repeat the words of the person who came little by little.

"Well, but after seeing your situation, I think I'm much richer than you. At least ......" The man flicked his wrist, and with a pop, the dagger that was originally stretched out outside immediately retracted, "I haven't been reduced to the point where I don't even have food, and I can only eat straw mats." ”

As he spoke, the person who came smiled, and somewhere did Lu Dao find a steamed bun, the same steamed bun as the moonlight, and then stretched it into the cage.

"The so-called thief also has a way, according to the rules, you will be divided in half when you meet!"

The snow-white steamed bun was separated from it, and then handed into the cage.

Yuno hesitantly took half of the steamed bun in the hand of the person opposite him and slowly handed it to his mouth. I saw her open her mouth slightly and carefully bite into the steamed bun.

His mouth opened and closed slightly, then he chewed and swallowed gently.

In just an instant, her eyes lit up. The steamed bun in her hand was eaten by her one bite at a time. Perhaps because she had eaten too quickly, she coughed immediately afterward.

I coughed for a while before I calmed down again. The whole person gasped slowly, as if she had just consumed all her strength.

"You ......"

"Me?" The visitor looked at the girl in the cage and frowned slightly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Xie Lu Xie ......," the girl said, her body trembling involuntarily.

"I know the way, I know the way." The person who came shook his head, and the remaining half was also handed into the cage, "This half is also for you." By the way, mom has been hungry for you for a few days? ”

The girl didn't speak, just stretched out two fingers slightly.

Then there was a thud, and a spark exploded in front of her, silently extinguished.

"I'm sorry, I thought my Hidden Blade would be able to cut through the chains." The man tilted his head and said to the girl in the cage, "That's it......"

The man stood up. When he was standing, the whole person was on his side, so a large amount of moonlight could pour down from his side and shine on the face of my wife Yuno in the cage.

"I come over every night until ...... You come out of this. "Of course, it's best not to forget my name." ”

"Hmm......" Yuno, my wife in the cage, nodded slowly, reading the name of the person who suddenly appeared in front of her. This changed the name of the person who was on this night.

"Liu Mengchao ......"
