Chapter 178: Spark
She had been like this since Yunmu Cheng and Zovini had been like this, and Lanaya couldn't help but wonder if she had done something wrong.
Grint and Zovine should have a good relationship, right...... Ranaya walked halfway and turned back to her bedroom. Returning to the familiar position in her memory, seeing the familiar house number hanging on the door, the corners of Lanaya's mouth inadvertently rose slightly.
The amethyst ring faced the door curfew, and a string of runes flickered away, and then the sound of the lock being opened.
Lanaya gently pushed the door and walked in, only to see a slender figure lying on the table under her long brown wavy hair, seriously flipping through a magic book, "Grint, you ......"
The fullness of the chest and the faint fragrance of the hair carried by the soft breeze suddenly tied Ranaya tightly in her arms.
Lanaya's eyes widened slightly, a little confused, and it took a long time for her to gently place her hand on the back of the person who pounced on her.
"You know to come back!" said Grint coquettishly.
Lanaya cried or laughed, and was embarrassed to push her away, so she had to be held by Grint all the time, and I don't know how long it took for Grint to reluctantly let go of her.
"I didn't say I wasn't coming back. Lanaya smiled, and she couldn't help but yawn as she saw the familiar layout of the room.
It's been a long time since I've slept peacefully. After a month of anxiety in the enemy camp, and the last night she had not slept all night, Ranaya was already physically and mentally exhausted, and she moved towards the bed without being obeyed.
"Hey, Arnold said you were looking for something, what is it? Did you find it?...... Eh, Lanaya, Lady Woman, don't squint, I haven't spoken to you in a long time!"
No matter how Grint cried, Lanaya just didn't open her eyes, and she didn't know if it was really the Sandman possessed or if she was too annoying to Grinth......
For Angus, the boring job of guarding an ammunition depot is simply an ordeal, and he would rather take every opportunity to go out and buy materials to complete a patrol mission than stay in such a place that the smell is so heavy that he wants to vomit!
If there was nothing to worry about, Angus could still bear it, but the point was that he didn't know what Lanaya's safety was now, which made him even more desperate, and his nerves almost collapsed.
Going in and out countless times, when Angus didn't know how many times he stepped out of the ammunition depot and looked behind the house, the sunset finally sank completely into the sky, leaving a trace of enchanting purple red hanging on the edge. Angus called up almost five times his original speed, rushed back to the ammunition depot, locked the door in three or two clicks, and hurried back.
Within ten minutes, Angus was already outside the door of the hut where Lanaya lived. The door of the hut was ajar, and it swayed and creaked slightly in the wind.
Angus's heart tightened, this door was closed before he left, but now it has been opened!
Then Steve must have been here!
"Little Seven!" Angus shouted as he rushed in without thinking about anything.
The room was empty. As in the morning, there was still no answer to him.
"Xiao Qi, I know you're going to be invisible, you're okay, right?" Angus shouted in all directions, reaching out and grabbing a few around, but he couldn't even retain air.
"Xiao Qi, as long as you answer me, you don't have to show up, I know ......" Angus stopped all his movements, and stood in the center of the room, revealing a somewhat desperate look, "I know that you are here...... You tell me you're here!"
However, only his own echoes echoed him.
Angus rushed out of the room like crazy, came to the door of the high railing, and asked the guards, "Have you seen a girl with long gray and blue hair?"
The guards shook their heads.
Angus only felt an uncomfortable tightness in his chest, and he turned around and walked back a few steps when he heard someone calling behind him.
"Angus, why are you here?"
Angus turned around and saw that it was Chris, so he asked, "Have you seen Xiao Qi?"
"Little Seven?" Chris frowned and thought for a moment, "Oh, you said that person." Didn't you drive her away yourself?"
"I'm ......," Angus hurriedly said, "I'm afraid she'll come back." β
Chris smiled and said, "You're thinking too much. Then he passed by Angus and walked away.
Angus froze for a moment, then laughed self-deprecatingly.
Just now, Angus figured it out. Steve had said yesterday that if he found out that Lanaya was still here, he would have gone to the ammunition depot to try himself!, but today he hadn't seen Steve for a day except for the past trip, and Angus ruled out the worst-case scenario.
That...... Xiao Qi is afraid that he is really gone.
I'm afraid she'll come back...... Angus smiled to himself, walking towards the darkness of the opposite of the setting sun, he did think too much, but he wished she would come back.
Angus returned to his room like a walking corpse, ready to end the day of idleness. He opened the door, and Mu Ran stood for a long time, glancing towards a corner of the room.
He seemed to see a woman with long gray-blue hair leaning in that corner, her arms crossed in front of her chest, and her right foot tapping lightly in front of her left foot, revealing an intoxicating smile.
He almost rushed at the woman, but the woman disappeared the moment he lifted his foot.
He propped himself up against the wall and hung his head, and this time, tears finally welled up uncontrollably in his eyes.
Xiao Qi is gone. This immutable fact was like a thick acid, eroding the world that was not yet solid in his heart.
After a long, heart-rending roar, the sky grew gloomy and drowsy, followed by heavy rain.
Angus mechanically turned his head to look out the window, and even though the window had been closed, he could still smell the earthy astringency inherent in the rain.
He didn't like the oppressive smell.
It's just that a woman is gone, he doesn't know, he doesn't know why he is so sad.
The sound of the rain grew more and more urgent, and the lapping on the ground mingled with a moment of desolation.
The thunder swept through the black clouds and overwhelmed the sky, waking up those who were addicted to their dreams. Angus knows that even if the reality is cruel to him, he has to face it.
Instead of living in a dream.
Angus walked towards the edge of the bed with heavy steps, his hand never off the wall, he feared that he would fall if he lost his support.
Get some sleep, and hopefully wake up to find that you've forgotten about her.
Angus let out a long sigh and sat down on the bed and spread out the futon.
A note swirled out, a little dazzlingly white.
Angus was startled, stretched out his hand to catch it, only to see that a simple sentence was written on it: "Come to the north gate of the market." β
Angus almost stopped breathing.
Such delicate handwriting will only be a possible ......!!
But...... Angus thought about it carefully, the doors and windows were all locked during the time he was not in the house, how did Xiao Qi get in?
Could it be Steve's ruse?
Angus shook his head, this may be the last chance, take a gamble!
Under the pouring rain, there was an extra galloping figure.
......
By the time Angus arrived at the north gate of the bazaar, it was completely dark. Only a few shops are still operating, and most are closed. If it's not raining, the market at night will be more lively than during the day, but when it rains, it will be a cold scene.
Angus, drenched in water, ran under an eaves and reached out to pull his hair together, and the otherwise dry ground was dyed with several huge dark splashes in the next second.
"Xiao Qi?" Angus looked around, thinking that maybe Xiao Qi had been waiting for him here for a day, and now it was raining, and the guilt in his heart became deeper and deeper.
But at least, Xiao Qi didn't just leave, she still remembered herself!
After waiting for a long time and no answer, Angus tried to shout a few more times, and then felt someone tap him on the shoulder from behind.
Angus was startled and hurriedly turned around: "Little ......"
The person in front of him was not Xiao Qi at all, he was a young man wearing a black poncho. On his pale countenance, a pair of eyes stared straight at him: "Are you Angus?"
Angus subconsciously took a step back, his fists clenched inadvertently, "Yes, what's wrong?"
The young man never took his eyes off Angus, and at the same time reached into his poncho.
Angus watched the young man's every move vigilantly, wondering in his heart what the origin of this person was, and whether Xiao Qi should have been captured by him...... Right?
Seeing that the young man took out an envelope from under the poncho and handed it over, Angus was stunned, and after taking it, he found that he had thought too much.
"The person who sent the letter asked me to convey to you that it must be opened at ten o'clock the next morning, not in advance or later, remember. β
Before Angus could ask questions, the young man disappeared into the rain.
Angus took the envelope in a daze, and even if he wanted to open it again, remembering the words of the young man, he had to put it in the ring.
"Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock ......?" After thinking for a long time, I couldn't understand it, but the rain gradually stopped.
Lanaya had left him with another long wait, but the last time it had brought him only endless anxiety, this time, he hoped that this spark would be rekindled and would guide him to meet her again.
......
"Hmm...... Ahh
Lanaya didn't wake up until the evening, and she didn't sleep long because of years of habit, but it was the most restful sleep she'd had in recent times.
When he woke up, he sneezed, and Grint was also startled out of a dull hair.
"Don't look at me, I didn't miss you just now. Grint said as he smoothed his own hair.
Lanaya rubbed her eyes, fell off the bed with her legs sideways, and stretched her waist: "What do I want to say...... Oh yes, do you know what's wrong with Zovinie?"
Grimmt's expression immediately became worried: "Zovinie has become very strange lately. She didn't take the initiative to look for me, and I often couldn't find her when I went to her bedroom. Listening to her soon-to-be-recovered companion, she has been on a mission, and once I met her at the medical center, covered in injuries and in a coma for a long time. I stayed with her for a while, and when she woke up, she kept repeating, 'I'm going to be stronger.'" 'I'm afraid she'......"
"She's crazy?" Lanaya was surprised, "How can she be as naΓ―ve as Lawson before?!"
