Behind the door, Lianna let out a light laugh.
"It's okay, I'll accompany you."
"That's not what I meant, Herr Hohenheim."
A sigh was heard, and then the girl smiled and explained:
"Maybe... I will encounter many setbacks, maybe I will experience different separations again, who knows."
"I mean, from the first day we met to now, half a month has passed in the blink of an eye."
"It's okay, I'll accompany you."
"Time flies by so fast."
Gu Qinghan took a deep breath and looked towards the distant sky with empty eyes.
Gu Qinghan was stunned at first, then he reacted.
"Katerina will continue to monitor me and list me as a key suspect."
"Yeah..." A complicated bitter smile appeared on his face.
"And this time, she was no longer acting, but actually began to doubt me."
Thinking back on every little thing that had happened in the past half month, Gu Qinghan felt as if he was in another world.
After a pause, he continued in a serious tone:
There are so many things happening recently.
"She would use more radical means, trying every possible means to find out my bottom line, find out my true identity, and then give me a heavy blow."
Whether it is avoiding Catalina's investigation, Richard's rebellion, or Miss Lianna's hypnosis removal.
"It doesn't matter. I just need to continue to be your neighbor."
Everything has its twists and turns.
Lianna bit her lips lightly, slowly raised her head, and looked at Gu Qinghan with red eyes.
Gu Qinghan opened his mouth and wanted to continue arguing, but in the end he couldn't speak.
"I always feel that fate is a very wonderful thing."
"Are you sure?"
At this time, a girl's whispers were heard from inside the door again.
Guilt gnawed at his heart like an ant.
Gu Qinghan didn't say anything. He relaxed his whole body and leaned against the door, quietly listening to the girl's whispers.
"When we first met, I was filled with shame and anger towards you. I thought you had ruined my life's happiness."
"Didn't I tell you that?"
"But after half a month, I found that this was not the case."
The girl smiled slightly, took Gu Qinghan's hand, turned around and walked towards the stairs of Building 38.
"My happiness has not actually been ruined by you."
"As long as Mr. Hohenheim treats me as he has done before, I will not leave you."
"Because it was destroyed by others from the beginning."
Gu Qinghan was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, his right hand had been pulled up by Lianna, who turned around and walked a long way towards home.
There was a constant sound of dripping water in the bath, and faintly, there seemed to be a sigh from a young girl.
Suddenly, Gu Qinghan's eyes sank. He firmly grasped Lianna's wrist with his backhand and took the initiative to step forward.
Gu Qinghan sighed lightly, and roughly guessed the meaning of the girl's words.
"It will take a long time to reach the nearest base from here."
"Mr. Hohenheim, I thought you were the one who caused all this, but on the contrary, you are the one who did your best to help me."
"Come to my house before Catalina comes back."
Without saying anything, Gu Qinghan grabbed the girl's wrist and walked towards home together.
At this point, a sob was heard from inside the door.
As the water drops continued to fall, Gu Qinghan could clearly feel the wooden door shaking slightly as the girl's body trembled.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Hohenheim."
Faintly, the girl seemed to be sobbing.
"I always doubt you, but you are the one who has always been thinking about me."
"What should I do to eliminate the guilt in my heart?"
A voice of doubt came from behind, echoing in the quiet bathroom.
Gu Qinghan leaned against the door and didn't speak for a long time.
Slowly, he stood up and looked back at the bathroom door with an expressionless face.
Through the foggy glass, Gu Qinghan vaguely saw the figure of the girl.
It was very close to him, even with only a centimeter of glass between them.
"Miss Lianna, there is something I want to know."
After taking a deep breath, Gu Qinghan spoke with a serious expression and continued:
"I would be very grateful if you would cooperate with me."
Inside the door, after a brief silence, Lianna's tone finally showed a hint of life.
"If I can help you, please let me know!"
Gu Qinghan nodded, then paced back and forth, frowning as he thought about how to express himself.
"First of all, Miss Lianna, I have a question for you."
"You say."
"My question may sound a little strange, I hope you won't be surprised when you hear it."
"Ok."
Taking a deep breath, Gu Qinghan spoke seriously, word by word:
"Do you recall that we have met somewhere else?"
The long silence made the sound of dripping water become harsh.
After a long time, a tired voice came from the bathroom door:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Hohenheim, I don't have such a memory..."
Obviously, judging from Lianna's voice, her expression must be very confused.
"Then the second question."
Gu Qinghan paused, then said seriously:
"Do you feel that after taking the hypnosis-relieving potion today, I am a different person compared to yesterday?"
This time, the silence was longer.
Even the sound of dripping water in the shower disappeared, and the whole house became unusually quiet.
Tick.
The crisp sound passed through the glass and echoed throughout the room.
"Mr. Hohenheim, may I ask what you are anxious about?"
"You sound a little tired. I'm worried..."
There was a wave of worry from inside the door, and the girl spoke cautiously.
Gu Qinghan was stunned at first, blinked, and then gave a helpless bitter smile.
"As expected, I can't hide anything from you."
Gu Qinghan sighed lightly and continued:
"Lately, I have lost track of who I am."
After saying this, Gu Qinghan felt like his whole body was deflated, and he was powerless.
Then, he spoke again slowly:
"It's possible that I'm actually an unforgivable villain."
"But I don't remember doing anything like that."
"But that doesn't mean I'm not a bad person."
"Maybe I became a bad person after I came here, but I have lost my memory of that part."
"I can't make that judgement on my own."
"So I need your help."
Gu Qinghan paused, then his tone gradually became serious, and he spoke again:
"Ms. Lianna, for a long time to come, I need someone to observe me all the time to see if I will show similar signs."
"I want to know who I am."
The long silence made the little house seem very empty.
Tick.
The sound of falling water drops also became harsh.
"This must be a very important matter to Mr. Hohenheim, right?"
Finally, Lianna's voice came from inside the door.
Gu Qinghan nodded.
"Yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, the wooden door creaked open, and Lianna pushed the door open, staring at Gu Qinghan solemnly.
Golden light sprinkled in the house, falling on the girl's fair body, and the water droplets reflected starlight.
The wet long hair was scattered messily on the girl's shoulders, revealing a strange beauty.
There are still drops of water at the ends of the hair on the forehead, which may drip at any time.
“I want to help you!”
The girl's eyes were solemn as she spoke seriously, enunciating each word.
Gu Qinghan blinked and looked at the girl's now uncovered body, his expression slightly stiff.
On the other side, after noticing Gu Qinghan's expression, Lianna quickly realized her own gaffe and quickly raised her arms to block him.
Her cheeks were red, but even so, she was unwilling to retreat back to the safety of the bathroom.
"If I can help you, my guilt will be alleviated a lot."
The girl bit her lips tightly with silver teeth and spoke with effort.
"So I must help you."
"Likewise, if I can be of any help to you..."
At this moment, Lianna suddenly raised her head again, her serious eyes flickered, and she mustered up the courage to continue:
"If you feel that I have really helped you, I would also like a reward."
Gu Qinghan was stunned and had a bad feeling.
"I want you to be my master."
"Okay?"
