From now on, the vampire girl escapes from the world

Someone else was looking over here from afar in the farmland on the other side, and the hoe in his hand fell to the ground.

But Coco pressed the hat that covered her ears and pulled Lily's arm hard.

The pace quickened a little.

The man stretched out his hand, as if trying to call Lily and the other person to stop. But Coco grabbed Lily and turned her around, disappearing from the man's sight.

Lily noticed that Coco was different.

"Ouch...are you nervous?" Lily asked.

Coco was stunned.

Lily realized.

Coco might... be familiar with this place.

Lily thought about it, then held Coco's little hand in her palm.

Wrapped in Coco's little hands is a soft touch of warmth and coldness.

Coco was surprised for a moment. Her heart, which had been beating uneasily, gradually began to calm down.

If it weren't for Lily's company.

Maybe I don't even have the courage to step in here.

As the distance got closer, Coco's small steps became slower and heavier for some reason.

Finally, the houses became fewer and fewer and the view became wider.

Standing on a small slope by the road ahead was what seemed to be a somewhat dilapidated wooden house.

Maybe the walls were old and worn, but the house was unexpectedly large.

A tattered wooden fence encloses the crooked yard at the back.

Coco paused, but still walked forward.

When he got to the door, he stretched out his hand, then hesitantly put it down. Finally, he gently pushed the door.

Couldn't push away.

The door had been locked long ago.

There was no one in the room.

"Are you here to look for this family?" A young woman passing by, carrying a basket, said to Coco and the others:

“No one lives here anymore.”

"When?" Coco asked.

"It was probably two or three years ago. Anyway, not long after I came here, the family left. It was said that they moved to another city after they had money. There were a lot of people in the family, and when they left, they made a lot of noise, and the whole village was disturbed."

"..."

Seeing that Coco didn't reply, the woman left after a while. Lily nodded and thanked Coco on her behalf.

Coco at the door did not leave immediately, but stood there for a long time.

Coco actually knew it the moment she saw it for the first time.

A broken roof, cracks in the wall, and a rusty lock.

——No one has been here for a long time.

It is probably because of this that Coco dared to walk to this door.

Otherwise, even with Lily's company... she wouldn't have the courage to step forward.

Lily noticed that there seemed to be someone walking across the field in the distance, looking over here.

"...Xiao Wei? ...Is it Xiao Wei?"

The man narrowed his eyes and stared at the little orc behind Lily.

However, Coco behind Lily just bent down and pushed the hat on her head down.

As if trying to hide his face.

"Is that you, young Vickery?" The man's pace quickened.

Coco grabbed Lily's bare arm and ran the other way.

"Wait a moment!--"

Coco ran so fast that Lily could hardly keep up.

But Coco held on very tightly.

The man behind threw away his hoe, chased for two steps, and finally stopped.

Just watched Coco and the other person disappear around the corner of the building.

……

Coco was even more speechless on the way back, and neither of them spoke much.

From departure to return, it was faster than expected.

This time Coco did not ride on the horse. Instead, after walking for a while, she jumped from the horse's back into the car and sat next to Lily.

Lily was still rubbing her eyes sleepily when she suddenly heard Coco say:

"That's my home."

Lily was startled and nodded subconsciously.

"...No, it should be the place where I used to live." Coco added to herself, not caring whether Lily heard it or not.

No matter what kind of memory it is...it must be heavy or important enough for Coco.

Lily didn't know what to do, so she could only force herself to look around.

Coco looked up at the sky for a moment.

Feel the softness and sweet warmth around you.

Involuntarily, I opened my mouth:

"Lily... who are you?"

178. Unexpected Encounter

Coco couldn't suppress her curiosity and finally asked.

I have kept these words in my heart all this time without ever having the chance to speak them out.

Different from the impression she had when she first met him, after spending a long time together, Coco realized that

The essence of this "big devil" around me is just an ordinary girl who is a little weak, a little paranoid, a little ignorant of the world, occasionally has some power, but makes people can't help but bully her, and is a little less ordinary.

It should be like this.

Yet these are only the pieces of the puzzle—they haven’t even touched on the answer.

Is he really just an ordinary human? What is his relationship with the elf? How did he know her? How did he gain such a strong power? How were the shackles on his feet put on?

What is this person's past like?

The mysteries are intertwined and give rise to more mysteries.

Coco realized that she knew almost nothing about the girl next to her.

"Before... why did you protect me like that... and ended up like this." Coco asked.

Even one of his arms was lost forever - as far as Coco knew.

"..." Lily didn't reply.

"Before, those two people who came to see you... were they people you knew?" Coco asked, "They seemed very angry when they saw you. They seemed to like you very much. Who are they?"

"..."

"I also heard you talking about your sister... who is your sister?" Keke asked, "Were you on good terms before? Did she... abuse you like that before?"

Abuse? Should that be the way to describe it?

Perhaps massacre would be more appropriate?

"..." Lily still didn't reply.

"'You weren't like this before'...what were you like before?" Coco asked.

No matter how she asked, Lily's only response was silence.

Finally Coco turned her head.

Lily's little body rose and fell with her breathing, and her eyes were closed on her comfortable little face.

...Lily had fallen asleep a long time ago.

Lily fell asleep long before Coco asked the question.

——So after asking so many questions just now, I’m afraid Lily didn’t hear a single word.

Coco suddenly felt frustrated that she had the power but nowhere to use it.

The peaceful little face sleeping beside me actually looked so hateful.

The more she looked at it, the angrier she got... She gritted her fangs and reached out to grab Lily's tender cheeks.

However, just when I was about to knead those tender hands - looking at this peaceful sleeping face, I imagined the aggrieved look on his face with tears in his eyes when he woke up.

Coco still let go hesitantly.

Sure enough, I still can’t bring myself to do it.

...It's still hateful though.

So hateful.

Then I'll teach him a lesson when he wakes up.
