Chapter 26: The Golden Fairy (24)
"Ellene, Ellen?"
As soon as the weather dawned, Ai Yue's voice spread throughout the hut.
Victoria was also awakened from the faint sound of this shout, and she wiped her dry eyes, it was the first time for her to rest so late.
"What's wrong? Like a kitten just out of bed, Victoria gently rubbed her cheek with her hand.
Ai Yue looked at Victoria with watery eyes, and said in a crying voice:
"Little Wei... Eren is gone!"
Victoria's sleepiness was gone in an instant, and Eren was now like the only straw she was holding, if he disappeared so silently, then...
"It should be fine, he just went out to buy something, hasn't there been such a situation before?"
Victoria said to herself, not knowing whether she was telling Ai Yue or herself.
The events of the previous night were still vivid, and the thought of uttering such shy words made Victoria want to find a cloud to get in and never come out again.
As she had just woken up, Victoria's long golden hair was still slightly curled, and with her slightly swaying body, a golden arc was drawn in the air.
Squeak –
The hut was gently pushed open, and Elan looked at the two of them in surprise.
"Why don't you sleep more?" said Elian.
In his impression, young girls, especially beautiful ones, generally have to sleep in. Ai Yue also explained that this is a beauty sleep, but in Ai Lian's opinion, this is completely a girl's prerogative.
"You... What do you care about so much!" Ai Yue just wanted to step forward and hug Ai Lian, but when she heard his words, her face instantly changed to shame.
"Uh, forget it. I bought Grandma Aisi's snacks, do you want to eat them?" Elian held up a few cloth bags in his hand.
Ai Yue snatched the things in Ai Lian's hand, and then pouted and said, "Hmph!
“???”
Eren is a question mark now, but it's not that important, is it?
Seeing Ai Yue and Victoria happy, it seemed that nothing mattered anymore.
Victoria and Ai Yue sat on the haystack and ate their snacks, and it was obvious that they both liked this sweet snack very much, but Eren was not complimentary, and he always avoided things that were too sweet.
Whether it's food, or life.
"That's right, Victoria. It was then that Eren suddenly remembered something, and he turned to Victoria, who was sitting on the haystack, and asked, "Do you remember when the news of the dead began to be heard?"
Elian's question was simple, as Victoria had answered Eren when they first met, but he needed a precise time, not an ambiguous answer.
"Well... Victoria put down the snack in her hand, held her chin and narrowed her eyes. It was a long time before she opened her eyes and replied confidently, "Five years ago! After my mother disappeared, all sorts of strange things began to happen in the town! The idiots in the town even said that it was my mother's doing! It was after that that I moved out of town and here." ”
"Five years, uh... Eren closed his eyes and slowly pieced together the pieces of the puzzle.
"Ai Yue, did you get the newspaper back?" said Ai Lian suddenly, obviously remembering something.
"Newspapers, what newspapers?" Ai Yue asked, tilting her neck in confusion.
Ai Lian patted his head violently and explained, "It's the newspaper I found in that small building, five years ago!"
"Oh! I've got it back!" Ai Yue suddenly realized, and then pulled out a yellowed newspaper out of nowhere.
"Well done, I'll buy you a cake later!" Ai said excitedly as he connected to the newspaper.
Hearing the word cake, Ai Yue was not calm, since the last time Ai Lian bought her the kind of cake with honey, Ai Yue was clamoring to eat it all day long, but Ai Lian prevaricated.
Because that dim sum shop is so far away.
Compared to Ai Yue, who only thinks about eating, Victoria is obviously much smarter. She cautiously approached Eren's side, staring at the newspaper.
"Sure enough!" When he saw the real thing again, Eren was sure of what was in his mind: "Sure enough!"
Victoria also nodded, as smart as her, and she also saw some clues at this moment.
And Ai Yue didn't care about it, she only had cake in her head now.
Glancing at each other, Eren and Victoria were clearly interested in what the other was thinking.
"How about answering together?"
Eren playfully suggested that in some kingdoms in the Eastern Continent, many idle and panicked nobles like to play this kind of puzzle game, and the most exciting moment of this game is when the participants finally say the answer together.
Victoria didn't answer, just nodded her head slightly. Presumably in her heart, she also wants to compare with Elian.
Ellen's slow voice and Victoria's hoarse voice fused together, uttering the same word.
"Siamese cat!"
"Sure enough, you're smart, Victoria!" Allen showed a hint of excitement, like those nobles who had nothing to do, and Erian was a big fan of these puzzle games.
However, he participated in secretly, after all, in the Eastern Continent, where the status and identity system is strict, the game of the nobles is not something that commoners can participate in.
The only thing civilians can participate in is to pretend to be the pitiful corpse killed by the murderer.
"Humph!" Victoria snorted and turned her head, though she didn't say anything, but Eren saw a hint of happiness in the corner of her eye.
Even the eyes, which have always been dark green on weekdays, seem to have become a little leisurely.
However, the answers to the puzzles of the two did not satisfy the other person. After eating the snack, Ai Yuezheng was lying on the grass without any ladylike temperament, looking at the newspaper in front of the two with her legs crossed.
"What Siamese cats, is it a pet? But I prefer dogs—" Ai Yue laughed, ruining the atmosphere that Ai Lian had built up so hard.
Ai Lian glared at Ai Yue lightly, and then pointed to a piece of news in the newspaper and said, "Siamese cats, it is the air thief group that suddenly disappeared five years ago!"
In the newspaper, a huge airship came into view, even if this airship was still the same as five years ago, but Eren could still see a trace of domineering in it.
The person who owns such an airship will probably not disappear mysteriously like that.
Eren and Victoria looked at the newspaper headlines and fell into deep thought.
One hundred and twenty-one ordinary members and three cadres were beheaded in Giselle, the capital of the empire, and the whereabouts of the leader of the Milo Cat are still unknown. ”
