Charlotte said to Rachel in a begging tone at this time: "I really can't bear to see it continue to wander aimlessly, mother, can you pity it..."

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Rachel, only to see her smile and say, "What's so difficult about this, it's just to take a pet, my mother agreed." This is the first time you have asked me, you have never asked us for anything in the past thirteen years, and what reason does my mother have to refuse this little request. ”

"Wouldn't my mother be troublesome with pets?" asked Charlotte tentatively.

"If it's a dog, I might have to think about it, but not for cats. After all, cats are still very easy to raise, it will not stay at home most of the time, and it will not pester people, even if it has one more home, it will not change anything. The only problem is food, they all say that cats love to eat fish, but we can't afford to eat fish, I don't know if it can accept those coarse tea and light rice at home. Rachel is still a little worried.

"Don't worry, it's been wandering for so long, maybe it's been a long time since it's eaten a full meal. Although the meal at our home is simple, it is still no problem to keep it full, and I am sure it will not be picky. Charlotte swore by the black cat.

"Haha, how do you know what this black cat thinks, can you still communicate with it? But since it recognizes you as its master, even if it doesn't like our food, it can only settle down, which can only be blamed for its poor life, and the person who saved it is not a rich child. ”

Charlotte shook her head and said, "I think Dad's cooking is delicious, only my mother always complains, I think the black cat will like it." ”

"Okay, if you like it, you can like it. Let's hurry home now, it's time to eat, your father should have already prepared dinner, and he will be in a hurry if we don't go back. ”

Charlotte then beckoned to the black cat and said, "Come with me, we're going home." ”

The black cat immediately got up and came behind Charlotte, looking very obedient.

Seeing this, Rachel smiled and said, "This black cat seems to be very spiritual, you have picked up a treasure this time." You haven't named it yet? It's a hassle to call it without a name. ”

"If it hadn't been for my mother's reminder, I almost forgot about the name, since it's a pet, of course I have a name, and let me think about it. ”

Rachel looked at Charlotte's pensive and serious look, and couldn't help but joke: "It's just a name for the pet, there's no need to show such a solemn expression." If you don't know, you think you're naming your future child. ”

Charlotte ignored her mother and thought to herself.

"Black, Blake? Dark night, Knight? What is the best name? The name should be nice and related to 'black', except for the night..."

Charlotte suddenly had a flash of inspiration at this time, and she had a plan.

"Closely associated with the night is the moon, Luna, and although this name is good, it is still a little lacking as a pet name. Simplifying Luna a little more... Lulu, yes, Lulu is definitely a good name. ”

"Mother, I've decided, I'll call it Lulu, what do you think?" said Charlotte excitedly.

"After thinking about it for so long, you came up with such a simple name, but Lulu is indeed more pleasant, and it is very apt to describe the cat's quiet personality, which does sound good. ”

Rachel first jokingly "hits" Charlotte, and then symbolically praises Charlotte, which makes Charlotte cry and laugh.

Charlotte crouched down in front of the black cat and gently stroked its furry back. The black cat did not resist, and seemed to show a look of enjoyment, and in Rachel's eyes, the scene seemed very warm. Although a person and a cat have only been together for a few hours, the relationship between each other seems to be quite intimate, perhaps this is the power of the word "fate".

"From today onwards, you'll be called Lulu, okay?"

The black cat also seemed to like the name very much, and despite Rachel watching from the sidelines, it once again made its classic moves.

The black cat nodded heavily, and the movement was so obvious that Rachel immediately noticed the vision, and a look of surprise appeared in her eyes, and she was incredulous at the spirituality of the black cat.

The moment Charlotte saw the black cat nodding again, she felt bad, and her heart suddenly tightened.

"Oops, I forgot about Lulu's strange habits. The scene when it nodded just now must have been seen by the mother, and she must have been suspicious of Lulu, what should I do now. ”

Charlotte had to pray silently in her heart at the moment, hoping that her mother would ignore the kitten's action and not suddenly change her mind and regret it.

Although Rachel was surprised, the expression on her face was not exaggerated, and after the initial surprise passed, there was a hint of joy in her eyes at this moment.

"Xiao Xia, this black cat is very spiritual, and it can understand what you say, we seem to have picked up a treasure. This kind of spiritual pet may bring us good luck. ”

Looking at her mother's happy expression, Charlotte couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, they all say that cats can be psychic, and it seems that this is true." I was afraid that my mother would find Lulu's movements strange, but since you don't dislike it, it would be great. ”

"Why are you disgusted? Do you think I'm going to think I'm going to think of a goblin? Who doesn't want their pet to be spiritual? If it can communicate with you simply, it will be easier to dominate, at least not worry that it will not obey orders at all, don't you think?"

"Mother is right. Lulu, you must be obedient in the future, don't let us down. ”

Charlotte made a playful face at the black cat and said in a coquettish voice.

The black cat is still "one trick fresh, eat all over the world", and it seems that it is only good at this one action.

Seeing the delicate appearance of the black cat, the mother and son laughed at the same time, and the hearty laughter suddenly echoed in this space.

The two girls and the cat then walked in the direction of the village, and soon disappeared near the woods.

Charlotte came back to her senses, her mind returning to "reality", as if she had woken up from a dream.

In fact, Charlotte still doesn't know if the space she is in now is a dream, if the answer is yes, then the scenes in her mind just now are like dreams within dreams. The dusty memories were slowly revealed, like a second dream, which made Charlotte feel a little confused, unable to distinguish what was true and what was false, her memory was vague and confused, and she didn't know when it would be cleared.

"Is everything in my mind a real memory or a false fantasy, and why can't it be matched with my previous memories at all?

Before all the tragedy begins, I must get my real memory back, otherwise changing history will become empty talk, and all efforts may become a joke.

If I had made the wrong decision, I would have ended up even more tragic than I had been, and I would have become a veritable sinner for the ages, and I would have been responsible for my death..."

Charlotte took a few deep breaths to calm her restless mind, and then murmured, "The most important thing for me now is to make a judgment about which memory is genuine, it's like a big gamble, although there are only two options, but if you choose the wrong one, it will be a doom." ”

When Charlotte was deep in thought, the black light emitted from Lulu's body had gradually dissipated, and she saw it walking slowly towards Charlotte with graceful steps, and when it arrived in front of Charlotte, the next moment made that movement made Charlotte find the answer almost instantly.

It had just seen it clearly once in the process of recalling, and it felt so familiar.

Lulu raised its right paw slightly, and the gesture was so similar to the greeting of friends that it was almost impossible to make out the difference, and anyone would think it was a gesture of affection from a very spiritual pet.

Maybe Charlotte would have thought the same thing a moment ago, but now her thinking was a little skewed.

"In that 'memory' just now, after I shook hands with Lulu, the circle that appeared under my feet... If I'm not mistaken, it should be the highest contract circle. Both parties to the contract can share life force and spiritual power, although this contract will bring many benefits, but there is one of the biggest drawbacks, that is, when one of them dies, the other

One party will also be affected immediately, and without timely treatment, neither of the parties to the contract will survive.

It turns out that Lulu and I have been connected by this contract for so many years, and it is ridiculous that I have not remembered such an important thing until today. But why would Lulu sign such a pact with me, and what exactly is its purpose? ”

Charlotte wanted to go over and re-sign the contract with Lulu and establish the bond between the owner and the pet for a while, but she hesitated.

"Lulu, is it really a Dark Attribute Spirit Pet, and if the answer is yes, I'll have to reconsider my relationship with it. Although I don't believe in the 'allusions' that have been passed down by word of mouth, and I have never been inclined to give up on myself, I am now facing a critical juncture to change my fate.

I don't have a chance to do it all over again, so I can't afford to make a mistake. If the dark element is really a bad omen, signing a contract may be the beginning of disaster. Do I really want to cut off my fate with Lulu with my own hands?

When Charlotte finally regained her true memory, there was no sense of relief in her heart, and only boundless distress filled her soul. She didn't know what to choose, the choice had never been so difficult, and when every step forward had to be risked with the lives of the people she loved, no matter who she was, she could become indecisive.

Lulu the black cat seemed to see Charlotte's painful expression, and it slowly lowered its raised right paw, and then it gently lay on the ground, slowly closing its eyes, looking like it was about to fall into a deep sleep.

But Charlotte suddenly found that the vitality in Lulu's body was dissipating as quickly as the sea at low tide, and she could really feel that as long as there was not a cup of tea, Lulu's fate would be the same as the wolf dog in her memory, and she would be silent again.

"Why? How can this be?"

Charlotte's psyche was devastated, and the unexpected reversal of the scene was almost unacceptable to her. In this moment, she finally understood the true meaning of that contract.

"Lulu wasn't bullying me for not knowing anything, not using the power of this contract. It is not for the sake of greedily absorbing the life force and spiritual power in my body, otherwise I would never have lived a healthy life until now. It simply senses that its life force is about to run out, and instinctively seeks ways to protect itself.

The descriptions of primeval spirit beasts in those miscellaneous studies, the curse that caused them to gradually perish..."

Thinking of this, Charlotte's eyes were red, and tears began to roll in her eyes.

"Lulu has been with me for a hundred years, a hundred years, and has never left me. And now I'm going to die for it? That terrible curse has exhausted its last bit of vitality and spiritual power, but it still has no hesitation in trying to save me. It knew that if I didn't go up and shake its hand and accept the contract, it wouldn't have a chance to live again... Lulu..."

Charlotte looked at the black kitten who had given up all hope, and tears fell from her eyes.

"Lulu can choose death in order not to bother me. And I, in order to reverse a past that has become a foregone conclusion, am I going to watch it lose its vitality in front of me? No, absolutely not!"

At this moment, all the principles of "acting cautiously" and "one wrong step, one wrong step" were all left behind by Charlotte.

What about influencing the plan? What about losing everything? She can't manage so much anymore.

"No matter what the outcome will be, as long as Lulu lives, I will bear all the consequences on my own. ”

Charlotte resolutely walked over to Lulu, squatted down slightly, took Lulu's front paws with her right hand, and held the hairy and delicate "little hand" tightly.

Lulu opened her eyes at this moment, staring at Charlotte's face. It clearly felt Charlotte's loving gaze, and from that gaze it could feel the warmth of no less than family affection, recalling the extremely comfortable embrace of its mother when it was a child.

Lulu smiled, so brightly that it didn't know if Charlotte could read its expression, but it wanted to get its emotions across.

"Thank you, my master. ”
