She was being placed on the sofa, with her soft little feet dangling.

As if seeing that Lily had woken up, a strange woman came over and asked with concern: "Are you awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable?..."

Lily shook her head dazedly, looking like she didn't quite understand the situation.

After shaking my head for a long time, I finally remembered that I seemed to have been kidnapped accidentally...

"Phyllis! Phyllis! The little girl you brought back has woken up!..." the woman shouted into the distance.

However, upon hearing the sound, many other people gathered around.

Lily flinched a little, but couldn't help but look around curiously. There were only adults around. Bernie and the slave children they had taken away were nowhere to be seen.

I am the only one here...

Someone handed Lily a glass of water. Lily took it subconsciously and said thank you in a low voice.

"So cute..." They whispered to each other, not seeming to worry about being overheard by Lily:

"It's the first time I've seen such a cute child..."

"Unfortunately, my arms are..."

"I never saw her smile... She would look really good when she smiles..."

"Is it because I'm so cute that I have to endure this... I don't know if it's good or bad..."

Lily drank the water silently, thinking that what these people said was really hard to understand, and rubbed her eyes cutely.

"So cute..." That resulted in even more stares at Lily.

Lily felt more and more uncomfortable, and wanted to sit up uncomfortably, subconsciously wanting to look for Ai'er or Coco...

Later, she remembered that she was alone, and felt a little disappointed. Finally, she held on to a last bit of hope and asked:

"Bernini, where are you?"

Lily thought, if only the other party could help her get out of this strange predicament...

"... Bernie?" People looked at each other.

"It's from before. Where are those people in the cage?"

The people surrounding Lily seemed to understand who she was talking about.

As a result, the eyes around me softened for some reason. Some people even wiped away tears silently:

"I'm still thinking about my friend who was captured... This child is really an angel..."

205. Event Record

"..."

Lily suddenly felt that she had heard this description too many times, as if this word was a high level of praise for humans.

However, this time it was just a complete misunderstanding...

Lily felt more and more uncomfortable.

"Give in, give in."

The people around hurriedly made way.

A man carrying a large pair of pliers came up to Lily.

...Hey, what's going on?

"Don't move." The man looked stern and glared at Lily fiercely.

Then, the knife-like light reflected from the huge pliers shone directly on Lily's little face.

What do you want to do...?

Lily's body stiffened and she closed her eyes subconsciously.

"Quack-"

Lily opened her eyes, only to find that the pliers had only clicked on the shackles of her shackles.

Lily breathed a sigh of relief. She thought the man was going to cut off her limbs or something like that... like before.

Only the chains of the shackles were intact.

"It's still useless." The man shook his head: "Physical methods can't solve it... I don't know how deep the magic will go."

When the people around heard this, they could only look at each other helplessly.

These people had been working on Lily's shackles for quite some time while she was asleep.

The fetters fit so tightly that they looked like they were made by magic—but there were no keyholes to be found.

Even magic needs a keyhole to unlock.

Only this thing, the shackles, were forged as if they didn't want anyone to open them.

“Perhaps professionals at the professor level can come up with a solution…but there is nothing we can do.”

"Do we really have to let this girl wear this thing all the time?" Someone said unwillingly:

"It's pitiful enough that his left arm is broken...does he have to carry such a cruel mark for the rest of his life?"

"Don't worry. There will always be a way in the future." Someone comforted the people around him.

Lily listened to their discussion and felt sleepy again unconsciously——

"Lily! You're here!"

Lily heard a familiar voice and then saw Bernie waving at her not far away.

Lily, who was eager to escape from here, was immediately attracted by the other person. She hurriedly sat up, tapped her tender little feet, and ran towards Bernie in small steps.

The people who had just surrounded Lily quickly made way.

When I got closer, I saw that Bernie's body was much cleaner than before, her messy hair became smooth and tidy, and she was wearing a simple white dress.

Bernie was a little surprised to be approached so actively.

Only then did Lily see another girl following behind Bernie.

The other party seemed a little timid, standing half a step behind Bernie. But when she saw Lily, she took a step hesitantly, stood in front of Bernie, and bowed solemnly to Lily:

"……Thanks."

Lily looked at Bernie with some confusion.

Who is this?

"This is my sister, Bolin. When you brought me in, the one being auctioned in the cage on the stage was my sister..." Boni scratched her face a little embarrassedly: "If it weren't for you, I don't know if I could have rescued my sister and the others..."

Bernie was still a little embarrassed and kept thanking Lily.

But Lily kept staring at Bolin with her lavender eyes.

Being stared at, Bolin felt a little scared and stepped back subconsciously...

The people around looked at this scene and felt a little strange.

Until Lily pouted and said:

"Liar."

“???” Bernie’s head was full of question marks.

"It clearly said you were twins." Lily said angrily.

"??? We are it?"

"But they obviously look completely different."

“““…???”””

……

The truth is simple.

Lily had never seen real twins.

But the twins in the story look exactly the same.

So at that time, Lily was actually looking for someone who looked exactly like Bernie... but unfortunately she didn't find him.

Not all twins are identical.

In short, Lily was very disappointed when she learned the truth. She didn't even listen to Bernie and Bolin's thanks and fell asleep again.

"What's this guilt feeling of shattering a child's dream with my own hands..." Bernie muttered to herself.

……

……

Ai'er and Coco were walking in the corridor of the palace. Coco followed Ai'er carefully.

It took some time to get through the guards' interrogation, and then there were the strange looks from people passing by. They couldn't get into the royal residence, so according to the guidance of the people who had been there before, Ai'er and Coco went around to the side door.

After turning around a bit, Ai'er and the others saw the girl waiting in front of them.

She was wearing a maid's uniform, but she didn't fit in with the other maids in the palace. They were not the same outfit.

This maid does not serve anyone in the palace.

Seeing Ai'er and Coco, she bowed:

"You two are Lord Yardi's allies, right?"

"You must be Hannah. Hello."

The other party nodded and bowed slightly: "I already know why you two are here... Then, please follow me."

She turned and walked back into the palace, with Ai'er and Coco quickly following her.

People who met them on the road glanced at the group of people. Hannah was completely unaware of this and continued walking forward with Ai'er and the others.

Only Coco glanced back curiously.
