The Whispering Verses Chapter 832: Dreams, puzzles and flowers
Chapter 829 Dream Jigsaw and Flowers
The rain in Tobesk really lasted all Sunday. When Luvia came to No. 6 Saint Teresa Square in the evening as scheduled, the rain had not abated.
Tonight there is already some chill at the turn of autumn and winter. When the purple-eyed girl walked through the door through the rain curtain like a string of pearls under the eaves in the hazy and ambiguous light of the foyer, Shade put away the umbrella for her. Then he went upstairs with the girl who was a little cold.
The rainwater flows along the drainage pipes on the walls to the ditches on the ground. The whole city is bathed in the rain, peaceful and quiet.
On a rainy late autumn night, it is really pleasant to be able to have a candlelight dinner with the girl you love in your own house. During dinner, Luvia told Shade about a strange dream she had recently.
Probably because she was too worried about the affairs of Fort Midhill, even though the battle had been half a week ago, Luvia still dreamed about Iluna and Sister Devlin working together, and she could not survive her death. to prevent Joy Barton from forcibly bringing back Marilyn Handel.
This directly led to the complete loss of control of the level 0 relics. Before the early hours of Thursday morning, Fort Midhill ushered in a terrifying disaster of thousands of ghosts running wild.
"Didn't I appear in your dream?"
Shad sat on the other side of the table with a napkin wrapped around it and a silver fork in his hand, while Mia lay in a long strip beside his hand, waiting for Shad to feed her.
The purple-eyed girl under the candlelight shook her head slightly:
"You were not in the dream, but Fort Midhill was not destroyed. Sister Devlin lit the fire to stop the evil spirits in the narrow room. Joy Barton, who regretted her actions, also participated in the doomed failure. In the confrontation, all the living people, even the vampires in the Fort Midhill area, participated in the confrontation with the evil spirits coming out of the Collapse Narrow. At the end of the dream, I heard the sound of the horn, and then the moon appeared. An angel."
She looked at the candlelight slightly absentmindedly:
"The figure looked familiar. The white wings on its back were burnt black. It blew the horn in the air and suppressed all the evil spirits back to Sikal Mountain. From then on, Sikal Mountain became a ghost mountain, and the church also became a ghost mountain. The battle resulted in heavy losses. Joey Barton, who made a big mistake, was seriously injured and hid in the mountains, but he failed in the end. Marilyn Handel's soul was severely damaged and eventually completely shattered."
"You see, if you think wildly during the day, you will have strange dreams at night."
Shad said with a smile, but he kept his agreement with Priest August and never mentioned the appearance of the death angel's wings to Luvia. Luvia's dream was not a simple dream:
"Because of my existence, the story has reached a relatively good ending. Forget about that weird dream."
He picked up the goblet, which contained red wine he had made with magic. The purple-eyed girl also smiled in relief, picked up the wine glass, raised the glass and touched it with Shade:
"Yes, everything is fine, I don't want to think about it, otherwise I will go to your basement to suppress it and lose control."
Bang~
After clinking glasses crisply, Shade drank half the glass of wine in one gulp, then choked and coughed. Luvia covered her mouth and chuckled, stood up again, and reached out her hand to pat Shade's back, who was lying on the table.
Mia, lying on the table, half-closed her eyes and tilted her head to look in the direction of the window. Candles were lit indoors, and it was a dark, rainy night outside. In the reflection of the glass, there is an almost identical figure standing behind the human woman.
"Meow~"
Mia meowed, curious as to why the other party didn't sit down and eat together.
On a rainy night, your home seems so warm and comfortable. Of course, there was an episode at No. 6, St. Teresa Square, on this night. It was half an hour before midnight. Shade put his arm around Luvia's smooth shoulders and whispered to her in the master bedroom about the Wanxiang Impermanence Card.
While talking, Luvia took the initiative to kiss her, and Shade smiled and hugged her. There was a violent storm outside, but now that he could hold his beloved girl in his arms, the foreigner felt that nothing could affect his good mood.
【Really? 】
"Her" murmur suddenly sounded in the darkness.
The curtains are closed tightly, blocking out the sound of raindrops hitting the glass. The atmosphere is very good now.
"Of course it's true."
Shad replied in his heart, Luvia ended the kiss and opened her purple eyes:
"Knight, there is still a long time tonight, let me see if the original flame will let you too"
[There is indeed a word that will completely make your current good mood disappear. 】
"Oh, I don't believe it."
【Puzzle. 】
The smile in "she"'s tone could not be concealed at all.
Luvia had already stretched out her arm, ready to get the [Eternal Youth Leaf] placed on the bedside table in advance, but Shade froze:
"Oops! I forgot about this!"
"Shad, what's wrong with you? Is there anything else that's more important than now?"
The purple-eyed girl said with some dissatisfaction, her short brown hair spread on the pillow, and her eyes were filled with anger:
"Are you still going to find Dorothy or that princess tonight?"
"Of course not! I forgot about the puzzle! (Chapter 770)"
That puzzle piece was the gift that Shade took out of the gift box this week when he was about to leave for Fort Midhill to participate in the decisive battle. After getting the gift, he went through that long and painful Wednesday night. After returning home from Fort Midhill, he fell into the second half of the week when he didn't want to do anything but just rest. completely forgotten about it.
There are still 27 minutes before the end of the week, and what Shade needs to do is to cut out the puzzle pieces from the puzzle book and put together at least two puzzle pieces.
At this moment, I suddenly remembered this matter and felt that I was in trouble, so I had to ask Luvia for help:
"Help me, can we do the puzzle together?"
The female fortune teller hesitated:
"Puzzle? Is this a code word? The new puzzle you learned last night? Or the new skills you learned from the [Pink Book]?"
"Oh, Luvia, stop joking, I really need your help."
It was supposed to be a beautiful night, but Shade was forced to get up, turn on the gas light, listen to the heavy rain outside the window, and play puzzles with Luvia on the bed for half an hour. During this period, there was also an episode where little Mia jumped on the bed and tried to mess up the puzzle.
The cat also received the "punishment" of being locked in the closet all night. In fact, Shade wanted to test the "live rope trick" he learned from the "Pink Book" on this cat. ", this is a spell that controls the movement of a rope like a living snake. But because he was worried about hurting the small cat, Shade ultimately did not try.
The arrival of Monday means that Shade will start to deal with the follow-up issues of Fort Midhill. Of course, those problems are not very urgent, but they need to be done after all.
The rain that lasted for nearly two days finally ended in the early morning. After seeing off Luvia who was in good spirits under the still dripping rain eaves in the morning light, Shade took out this gift from the [God’s Gift Box]. Zhou's new gift - a small iron box containing needlework, and he was given a task to do something related to "tailoring" within this week.
This is a test for the outsider. He is not good at needlework, but he can ask Tifa for advice.
The lazy cat was unwilling to go out with Shade after having a full breakfast. After finishing the meal and reading today's newspaper, Shade went to Fort Midhill through the basement.
It is sunny in Tobesk today, but Fort Midhill is caught in the autumn rain. After last week's war, the city has returned to calm in just half a week. Walking through the streets and alleys under umbrellas, there is no sign of panic among the city residents. Just buying flowers and gifts for visiting patients on the roadside, you can still hear many rumors about last Wednesday from people's mouths.
Most of those rumors are funny and unfounded, but they are generally related to ghosts and war. Combined with the series of earthquakes and the eruption of Mount Sikal on Wednesday night, the most outrageous version finally formed in the mouths of citizens is that the dragon living under Mount Sikal has awakened.
This rumor has been widely spread and recognized, because Mount Sikal has been subject to limited access control on the grounds that the volcano still has the possibility of erupting. But in the eyes of the citizens, it became evidence that the government was covering up the existence of the dragon.
But no matter what, it is better to let people think it is a dragon than to tell them that it is two gods fighting high on Mount Sikar.
At least in this case, the truth is even more outrageous than the citizens' speculation.
As a gift for visiting Helen and Grace, Shade had not decided what to buy in the end, but for flowers for visiting patients, there were related customs and rules in this era, so Shade was not worried about buying the wrong ones. He bought two bouquets of crimson hydrangeas from the flower shop on the street. When I walked out of the flower shop, I saw a girl selling flowers on the street walking forward under the eaves of a distant store. I stopped her and wanted to buy flowers of another color to match the monotonous color.
"Oh? It's you."
The flower girl who was stopped by Shade was actually the girl who sold Shade eight flowers during the fog in Fort Rice. Now the eight flowers each have their own place, and Shade saw her again after the war.
The girl looked no different from more than a week ago. She also recognized this generous and young gentleman. She looked at Shade holding an umbrella with a shy smile:
"Sir, long time no see. Would you like to buy flowers?"
Last Wednesday's disaster didn't seem to affect her, and Shade was happy:
"I'm going to visit two patients. Do you have a bouquet of hydrangeas in your basket that can match these hydrangeas?"
"Sir, what do you think of this?"
She picked two green platycodons for Shade. Shade thought they looked pretty good. When he wanted to take out his wallet to pay, the girl refused:
"Sir, you gave too much money last time. These flowers are for you."
"But."
Xia De doesn't want to take advantage of the flower girls on the street. Their lives are not easy.
"Sir, was the person you wanted to visit injured last Wednesday?"
The **** the street asked worriedly. Shade knew that she was changing the subject, but he still nodded in the sound of rain:
"Yes, I was slightly injured in the earthquake. Are your family okay?"
"A bad guy wanted to break into our house that night (Chapter 780), but he was chased away by another kind gentleman."
"Kind sir?"
"Yes."
The girl nodded:
"He said that he was the principal of a school, but none of our children met the admission requirements. But a few days ago, he found a church for us and arranged for me and my brothers and sisters to go to a church school. And give us living expenses. Now selling flowers is just a small supplement to the family, so you don’t have to give me money.”
"What's that gentleman's name?"
"Oh, I only know his last name is Pigman, let's call him Professor Pigman."
The girl smiled and said:
"He told me that knowledge is power. Therefore, we must master more knowledge and cannot give up going to school. Goodbye, sir, and I wish you a good day!"
She waved goodbye to Shade on the street and walked forward along the narrow space under the eaves, leaving only Shade holding the flowers looking at her back:
"Principal, Professor Pigman? Knowledge is power"
Xia De turned around and looked at the street scene behind him. The streets were still so lively in the rain. He seemed to be able to see the headmaster of St. Byrons measuring the city with his steps.
He successfully avoided Professor Pigman during the Middleburg incident, but he still heard about the professor's experience because of a small incident. Maybe not everyone can create miracles in danger after danger like him. But luck always seems to favor those kind and simple children.
"May the [Creator of Innocence] bless you."
Xia De said softly in his heart, then walked into the rain again holding flowers and an umbrella.
