Deep Sea Embers Chapter 197: The sun is shining
The sun is shining brightly outside the window. The extreme bad weather before seems to be just a distant dream. Only the water marks still remaining on the window sill and the wet ground on the street prove that there was indeed a heavy rain last night. One by one, this sunny day after the rain has passed, it seems that it is suitable for snoozing at home.
But Shirley had enough sleep, she had never slept for so long in one breath, and she was a little hungry, which urged her to get up quickly.
Because lying in bed hungry is an unpleasant memory for her - when she was younger, she used to sleep to get through the hungriest nights, and if it wasn't for the dog Awake and support, she may have left this world as early as some cold and hungry winter night.
One of Shirley's most valuable life lessons is that when hunger crosses a certain threshold, people will rub shoulders with death in their sleep.
She left the soft and comfortable bed, got up and changed her clothes, just at this moment, the sound of light footsteps came from outside the door.
"Sherry! Are you awake? I heard something!"
It's Nina's voice.
Xue Li was startled for a moment, then quickly agreed: "I'm awake."
The door was pushed open, and Nina appeared at the door wearing a white shirt, short coat and light brown plaid skirt. She saw Shirley who had just changed clothes at a glance, with a smile on her face, and then quickly walked away Come over: "You really slept for a long time! How are you feeling now? Does your back still hurt? What's wrong with the wound... let me see let me see..."
"The consumption was a bit heavy, so I slept for a long time...I'm fine, really," Shirley dodged the overly enthusiastic Nina awkwardly, but she usually dodged in front of Nina, who was extremely powerful. He resisted but seemed to have no strength, and finally turned around obediently and asked Nina to check the injuries on her back and arms, "It's all minor injuries, I... have a strong recovery ability, and... hey, It's so itchy, don't... itchy haha..."
"It's really healed!" Nina finally let go of Shirley, who had started jumping and dodging to the side. She looked at her friend in amazement, as if observing some rare creature. "There was such a big wound last night, but now it has not only disappeared, but not even a scar... How did you do it?"
"Didn't I say, I live in symbiosis with the dark demon, Agou's characteristics are a strong body and regeneration ability," Shirley adjusted her dress - the one she was wearing yesterday had been destroyed in the battle , at the moment this is another old clothes brought from home, and it is one of the only belongings she rescued after the attack, "Actually, my regeneration ability can be stronger, but Agou Saying that I am malnourished will reduce my regenerative ability..."
"Then you have to eat well here, uncle's craftsmanship is good now," Nina said immediately, followed by some curiosity, "Well...all like you...I mean, and the dark devil Are all symbiotic people so powerful?"
"It depends on what kind of demon you are coexisting with - the words of the Deep Hound will bring about fortitude and regeneration ability, as well as a certain enhancement of perception ability, and regeneration with terror is willpower and resistance to mental pollution. In addition, There are all kinds of demons, I can't tell... Anyway, the symbiotes of the deep demons are the superhumans with the most messy abilities. Those demons have always been very healthy towards their symbiotes in order to be able to move in the real dimension... "
Speaking of this, Shirley suddenly paused, her expression became serious, she looked into Nina's eyes: "After all, I suggest you not get too involved in this field...you should already know , Under normal circumstances, those who coexist with the secluded demons are the madmen of the Annihilation Sect, they are different from me, and their demons are not the same as Agou."
"I know I know, I'm not a child," Nina quickly waved her hand, but still couldn't hide her curiosity, "but have you seen other demon symbiotes? I mean those obliterate believers... "
"I haven't seen it, and I don't want to see it. It's disgusting to hear Agou's description. If I see it, I will definitely beat them up and report it to the sheriffs," Shirley said, wrinkled. Frowning, "Nina, you have a lot of questions today... You didn't ask so many questions when you met Agou before, and you don't have to go to school today?"
"You will live in my house for a long time from now on, of course you need to know more about you, but I heard from my uncle that your house was destroyed by a gas explosion, and there is no place to go in the future..." Nina Yi With a serious face, he took Shirley's hand and walked out, "In addition, the school is on vacation. What about the nearly two-month vacation, don't you know?"
"I didn't know, I didn't go to school..." Xue Li subconsciously muttered, and was dragged out the door by Nina, towards the direction of the kitchen where the smell of the food was wafting, she noticed the whole The second floor was quiet, and I couldn't help but wonder, "Is Mr. Duncan not there?"
"Uncle went to the first floor and said he wanted to entertain someone, let's have dinner on the second floor first," Nina explained, she dragged Shirley to the kitchen door, but then she seemed to think of something, and hurriedly pulled it again Following Shirley, she walked towards the bathroom, "Oh, by the way, wash your hands, wash your hands before eating, or uncle should talk again."
"Oh... oh." Shirley was dragged around by Nina, not knowing whether it was because she was hungry or because she slept for too long, she felt dizzy, But...it seems to be a good feeling.
At the same time, next to the counter on the first floor of the antique store, Duncan was explaining something in detail to the person opposite him, and sitting opposite him was a man wearing a delicate and elegant dress, a fine veil, and a A young lady with long blond hair and a dignified and beautiful face.
Dignified and beautiful blonde lady (x)
It's Alice in a wig ()
"...That's about it. There is a lot of common sense to know about life in human society, but you just need to understand the most basic parts. This is enough for your current scope of activities, and in this store There are very few things you have to do. You can get familiar with the simplest things first, such as cleaning and arranging the shelves." Duncan finally explained the things to pay attention to here, but he still looked worriedly at the man who was sitting in front of him. The blonde girl, "...do you still remember what I taught you on the boat before?"
"Remember!" Alice hurriedly nodded vigorously, but she seemed to remember something after nodding twice, so she quickly lightened her nod and nodded slightly in a very dignified and elegant posture, "Don't worry, I remember clearly. It's on!"
"Yes, the nodding should be small. It seems that you at least remember this." Duncan sighed, and then his eyes swept over Alice's body, and confirmed the details.
The original silver hair was covered with a golden wig, a little makeup was used to adjust the details of the appearance, and the lower half of the face was covered with a veil, and long silk gloves were worn on the hands and a special belt around the neck. A neck ring with lace trim to hide its special articulation details.
Basically everything that can be disguised is disguised.
Of course, if a person who really knows the Queen of Frost, Lei Nora, is standing here, or someone who has observed Anomaly 099 up close with his own eyes, he may still be able to see this from the details of his eyebrows and eyes. The appearance of a "blonde girl" is suspicious, but the probability is almost negligible.
The Queen of Frost is half a century ago, and it is almost impossible for anyone who has come into close contact with anomalous 099 to be alive.
Ordinary people, even the guardians of the church, will definitely not recognize that Alice at this moment is the cursed puppet that is out of control.
Duncan couldn't help but sigh softly.
Actually, he originally planned to wait for a while before letting Alice come to the human city-state to "see the world". He planned to stay a few more days for the doll to make up for the lessons on the ship, but he couldn't bear the guy lying around when he had nothing to do. On the side of the ship, looking at the sad appearance in the distance and the idle chatter, he still moved the time a little earlier.
It's just that within the scope of his ability, he still gave this guy some common sense urgently~IndoMTL.com~ instilled the most basic "three normal views" to her, I guess... it should be enough of.
Approximately.
Now Nina and Shirley are eating upstairs, he grabbed a timing and asked Ai Yin to send the doll from the boat to the store to get familiar with the environment. The first thing Alice did when she came here was to feel curiously everywhere Look, it took a lot of effort for him to "press" this guy next to the counter, but even so, he could see that the puppet's attention was almost completely unfocused on his own preaching.
She began to look around again. Although she tried her best to maintain a posture of sitting upright, she couldn't hide her wandering eyes and her neck moving.
Putting the dignified and elegant sitting posture and the restless eyes together, Duncan can only say that she is indeed Alice - the two states of elegance and naivety can actually appear in a superimposed state on one person at the same time...
And after looking around, her attention finally returned to Duncan, with unconcealed concern and... curiosity in her eyes.
