The little figure panicked and tried to escape, but there was no other way out of the cave, only a pool of stagnant water, and at the mouth of the cave stood Loki, who was armed with a torch and a weapon, and the little girl finally hid back in fear on the broken wooden bed.

"Little Fatuna, is that your name?"

Loki slowed his voice as slowly as he could, and slowly walked closer.

It is said that this half-elf little girl is only about six or seven years old, with a slightly larger head and a much thinner body than children of the same age.

The pair of thin little arms were crouching on the broken wooden bed with their knees crossed, and their whole body shrunk into a small ball.

The little girl was as dirty as a beggar, her hair was dirty like a bird's nest, her little face was covered with dirt and dirt, and her body was a dirty and torn linen robe, and she looked very pitiful.

Loki tried to ask again.

The little girl didn't answer for a long time, but looked at him with a pair of silver-gray eyes, and then retracted her head in fear.

Loki frowned, looking at the original hair should be dark gold color, judging from the characteristics of her short body and the color of her eyes, she should be the seven-year-old cute and naughty little girl in the mouth of the townspeople-little Fatuna.

But why is this half-elf girl hiding in this cave? Why doesn't she go back to her parents, and unlike the other townspeople, time will not stand still at night?

Loki had a lot of questions in his mind, and he quietly put away his claw knife and slowly approached with a torch.

"Fatuna, little Fatuna, can I call you that? Your name is nice, and like me, we don't have a surname. ”

Looking at the motionless little girl, he continued, "Loki, my name is Loki, which is a little shorter than yours. Try saying it to me, Loki, and you'll see that it's easy to pronounce, which is why the traffickers gave me such a simple name. ”

"Actually, my name doesn't matter, my name is just a code name, someone used to give me a nickname, called Littlefinger, you know what Littlefinger means, right?"

The little girl didn't answer, but subconsciously looked at her little hand.

"Little Finger, yes, the last, the weakest, the most useless finger. ”

"I'm thankful they call me that, Littlefinger is a demeaning name, but it not only strengthens my resolve to revenge, but it also keeps me hidden and unnoticed. ”

Loki waved his left hand again, showing the missing little finger, and asked, "Little Fatuna, can you tell me about you?"

Little Fatuna was still a little trembling, her big eyes were curious, she looked over slightly, but she immediately turned back with some fear.

Looking at the little girl who didn't answer, Loki said to himself again: "I've heard before that other people have the same nickname as me, Little Finger, of course, not because he lacks a finger, nor because he is weak and easy to bully. ”

"Do you know why?"

Loki tried to lower her guard and continued, "It's because he loves to use his brain and is fearless, and when you understand everything, there's nothing to be afraid of. ”

"Got it? ”

At first, the little girl showed a little curiosity on her little face, but then she didn't seem to understand the big truths, and she didn't even look at him.

The half-elf boy was disappointed, and had to find another way.

Loki was going to do it another way, he put down the burning torch, took off a simple backpack that was collapsed behind him, and said softly.

"Don't be afraid, little Fatuna, I won't hurt you. Check it out. ”

"I have some food in my carry-on bag, if you want to eat it when you're hungry, nod. ”

The half-elf boy spoke slowly, not only because he wanted to know some clues about the mystery of Silent Town from the little girl's mouth.

also because of the emotion of the psychological bottom line, this poor little girl reminded him of the precarious beggar career, and remembered the same poor beggar little girl, Hazel.

Loki sighed, he was a little helpless.

This little half-elf girl must have been influenced by something negative and showed a deep sense of vigilance.

In the face of the gentleness of the half-elf boy's efforts, little Fatuna not only did not respond, but also looked around with some fear.

It seems that there is a sense of slipping away again while he is not paying attention.

Before Loki could hand over the food in his hand, the little girl seemed to have made up her mind, raised her head and was no longer afraid, and got up to run out of the cave from the other side.

The figure flashed in front of her, and the little girl was not fast at all, but strangely, Loki had a feeling of losing her sight.

He hurriedly turned his head to focus on capturing the optic nerve image, only to realize that little Fatuna had just run next to him.

Without thinking too much, the half-elf boy grabbed the little girl's arm, but he didn't dare to push too hard, for fear of hurting such a thin little girl.

Loki looked at the dirt rubbed off his hands and tried to persuade: "Little Fatuna, you should go home and take care of your hygiene, otherwise you will get sick." ”

Little Fatuna couldn't struggle for a long time, and tried to bite her arm with her teeth, but she tried several times, but she was dodged all at once, and she didn't bite once.

Loki used three fingers to fix the little head that was constantly attacking him, and said, "Your parents' names are Agernon, Pamela, right?"

Hearing the names of her parents, the little girl's expression seemed to freeze a little and stopped moving.

"Then I'll send you home tomorrow and let your parents see you, they've been looking for you for days, and they've been looking for you. ”

The little girl suddenly struggled violently, her big light gray eyes flashing with fear, and then desperately tried to break free from the arm that was holding her.

Loki's heart hardened, and he continued, "Tomorrow morning, I'll bring your parents over and bring them here to see you. ”

The little girl spoke suddenly, but like a little mute.

She worked hard for a long time, but she could only let out an anxious cry of 'smack, smack'.

Loki frowned, he had clearly inquired before, little Fatuna had no obstacles such as deafness and muteness, and it was impossible for her to not be able to speak.

It's really like being stimulated and having a sign of 'aphasia', wanting to speak but not being able to speak.

This is a real mental illness, and this silent town is really not a normal person?

Not only are there strange and terrifying nightly stillness, but each of the townspeople has mental problems of one kind or another, collective amnesia, aphasia, and a mental illness that the trainer doesn't know exactly is.

Looking at little Fatuna with an anxious and frightened face, Loki didn't want to force the six-year-old girl anymore.

He let go of little Fatuna's thin arm and stepped back a few more distances.

He poured out all the food in his bag, and there was some bread and jerky in it, a small bag of water, and two tree fruits picked outside the town.

"Little Fatuna, be brave, don't be afraid, I'll just stay away. ”

The half-elf girl finally eased her emotions, although she couldn't speak.

But not as scared of him as I was at the beginning.
