"Mom gave it to me," the girl said, pulling the child tighter in her hands.
"Where's your mother?"
"My mother disappeared a few days ago. She disappeared with my child, and my child was in her belly." The girl's face was a little lonely, and her eyes were a little moist: "When will she come back? I can't catch the mouse. The child will die if there are no mice to eat.”
After hearing this, Mir took a deep breath. He remembered that at noon, among the poor children, there was a woman with a baby's head under her legs. Now it seemed that it was not that it was stuffed in, but that it could not get out. Come.
Mir looked at her with a gentle face, put his hand close to the flame and heated it. When it was hot, he said, "Can you give me a hug? My hand is warm."
The girl looked at Mil with a gentle face, hesitated, and handed over the baby in her hand.
Mir took her and put his gentle palm against the baby's cheek. The baby rubbed it forward vigorously without crying or fussing.
"Some fever," Mir seemed to be saying to himself. At this moment, the baby spit out the white soup from his mouth as if spitting milk, with some tiny bits of meat.
"She vomited," the girl looked a little flustered: "She didn't eat anything today."
Mir showed a gentle smile, which made the girl feel calmer.
"She must be infected with parasites," Ellie's words rang in her mind: "She can't digest the parasites and bacteria in the mouse. Now those bugs are multiplying in her body, but this is not a big deal, you. .....”
When Mir heard this, a smile appeared on his face and he said to the girl: "Do you know the church? We know many magical things, such as curing diseases."
Just when a look of anticipation appeared on the girl's face, Mir put his palms in the flames and burned them. The frightened girl suddenly jumped up.
What's even more strange is that Mir's hand seems to have a suction force, causing the flames to rush towards him.
After a while, Mir turned his palm into a fist, retracted it with a "crack~" sound, and stroked the baby's belly.
The baby hugged Mir's hand comfortably and fell into a deep sleep after a while.
"It absorbs heat and uses it for treatment. Those who don't know it think it's from the Forest Church," Mir joked in his mind.
"You didn't have to absorb it," Ellie said helplessly.
"Then you can't put Xiao Beibi on the fire..."
Looking at the baby who fell into a deep sleep in Mir's hands, the girl was pleasantly surprised and breathed a sigh of relief: "She's asleep. She hasn't slept all day and finally fell asleep."
"She won't vomit again," Mir said with a gentle smile on her lips.
"Thank you, thank you," the girl blinked her big amber eyes and expressed her gratitude sincerely: "My name is Kailin. I, I don't have anything here. Do you want to eat mice? She fell asleep. The mice overnight. You can’t feed her.”
Mir's mouth twitched, but then he thought that this mouse was their hope for survival. His face was a little heavy, and his emerald green pupils were dimmed by the flames.
"Oh, cat, cat," the girl looked at the cat next to the fire with a surprised look. Mir also looked at it, only to see that the original fine maggots on the white cat were gone, and the broken parts were restored to their original appearance. , the Broken Kitten, became the New New Kitten.
Mir lifted up the white cat and looked around for a week. There was not even a scratch left on the cat, and even the dirty hair was now as white as new.
However, after looking at its eyes, there was no trace of vitality. It was still a dead cat. I couldn't help but say in my mind: "Sure enough, when the body revives, the soul will not come back with it."
"The soul either dissipated or went to the spirit world."
Listening to Ellie's words, Mir fell into deep thought. In addition to reality and the gray land, another spiritual world appeared. It is probably the residence of the soul as the literal meaning is.
"Kailin," Mir slowly took the child back to her: "Wait here for a while, I'll go out for a while."
Kailin took the child and watched with confusion as Mir picked up the cat and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.
Mir looked around outside, but couldn't see the big guy.
Looking at the dim night in the distance, his eyes gradually became lonely.
Fortunately, at this moment, a big pale hand patted his shoulder. Mir turned his head and saw the big guy hanging upside down from the eaves, showing a hint of mischief in his human nature.
Mir smiled at it and took out the cat in his hand. Everything seemed to be silent.
The big guy curiously poked the kitten with his finger, and at this moment, the pale figure disappeared.
But the white cat opened its curious eyes, raised its little paws, and made a delicate meowing sound.
Mir looked at this scene with surprise and sighed inwardly: "Sure enough, animals also have soul space."
"Didn't you notice?" Ellie's words rang out: "Whether it is a human, a cat, or a dog, the organs and structures are similar. They all have two eyes, one nose, two ears, and one mouth. Even the internal organs It’s pretty much the same.”
"You're right," Mir nodded in approval, looking at the cat with its claws flipping curiously in his hand: "Although the cat's size is too small compared to humans, its facial features and internal organs are all A pattern.”
"I've been wondering about this for a long time," Ellie said in a confused voice: "You are all made from the same mold. Are you some boring god just to be lazy?"
"There is a more interesting saying in my hometown," Mir said following Ellie's puzzled tone: "All the animals in the world have the same origin."
"Are they all from the same origin?"
"Yes, although animals may be very different in appearance and behavior, they all have certain characteristics in common. For example, they all need food and water to sustain life, they all have basic metabolic processes, and they all experience growth and reproduction.
However, with the process of evolution, each animal has developed its own uniqueness. In order to fly, birds have lighter bones and grow feathers and wings. Mammals have hair and warm blood and can adjust their body temperature. "
"It's really interesting," Ellie said with interest. "It seems that life does not originate from gods. Gods do not need to be so complicated to do this."
"Not necessarily," Mir shook his head: "When the first ray of sunshine in the world falls, it brings light and heat, and the spark of life will collide."
"This..." Ellie fell into deep thought. When she fell asleep, the world was still barren, and while the gods were sleeping, their authority would not dissipate. Light and heat would still illuminate the world and bring life.
"Meow~" A soft meow came from his hand. He raised his little paw, grabbed the sleeve of his arm, climbed all the way to Mil's shoulder, and whispered into his ear: "I found out This body is extra comfortable and soft. In comparison, human bodies are a bit stiff. Thank you, Mir, for giving me a new life. I ask to stay by your side forever."
"I'm very happy," Mir whispered, bringing a filthy person to reality. This is the same behavior as a heretic, but Mir will play the role of guardian, and he also believes that this little guy will not do anything heretic again. Behavior.
"You know? This is amazing." After Mir agreed, the cat's tone was very pleased: "I found that this body should not be able to speak language words, but it came out from my mouth, and the voice before Same, a little immature."
"Not only that, the world you see in your eyes at the moment should only be blue, green and yellow, but you never said it. I guess your eyes are no different from those of humans at this time."
The cat nodded and gave a nice meow~
After hearing this, Mir raised his eyebrows and turned to look behind him.
The door was opened a crack, revealing a large, amber, curious eye.
Mir turned around with a smile on his face and held the cat above his head. The cat exposed its soft belly and pressed against Mir's fluffy hair, purring comfortably.
He opened the door gently and said, "It won't eat your mouse anymore. It has become a good cat."
The cat let out a gentle meow in cooperation~
Kailin then opened the door and walked to the side. After Mil came in, she couldn't restrain her curiosity: "Are you talking to the cat?"
"Um?"
"Just now, I heard it, but I couldn't hear clearly what you were saying," Kailin's tone was a little restrained, obviously a little panicked.
"You discovered it. Have your ears always been so good?" Mir smiled: "The church is very magical. Come and say hello to her."
"Um...Hello, Kailin, I'm sorry that I used to steal your mice. I won't do that again in the future." The cat's tone was also a bit restrained. It seemed that more than one person was eavesdropping today. Woolen cloth.
"Hello, you don't need to apologize. We all want to live, including you, and none of us are wrong, right?" Kailin looked at the cat that she hated so much in the past with her amber eyes. , it was much more agile than me, and could always drive away all the mice. Only when all the mice ran into the darkness did they catch one, leaving Kailin alone on the street at a loss.
"I think so..." The cat raised its front paws and scratched its ears. After entering this body, it would always do some wonderful actions subconsciously, but it did not suppress itself, because These movements make it feel very comfortable.
"By the way," Mir walked to the fire and sat down: "My name is Mir, Kailin. Nice to meet you."
"Me, me too, brother Mil," Kailin was a little restrained and walked to the fire to sit down. The child she had been carrying was also placed on the bed.
"Kailin, can I ask you?" Mir's voice was soft: "When did this place become like this, or has it always been like this."
Hearing this, Kailin frowned slightly and looked at the bonfire that was gradually extinguished, seemingly lost in thought: "It wasn't like this before. Mom and dad used to go to work every morning and come back with food in the evening.
But a week ago, my father disappeared and the streets became very chaotic. My mother was very worried and did not go to work. She searched on the streets every day. My mother also disappeared three days ago. During those days, there was a bad smell everywhere. smell. "
"It seems that the accident happened a week ago," Mir frowned: "What have the people in the Legal Affairs Office been doing in a week? Hasn't the church heard any news at all?"
At this moment, a clear and urgent voice mixed with a knock on the door sounded: "Hello, I am the knight captain Anna, is this Irina's home?"
Mir looked at the door with a surprised expression. As soon as he mentioned the church, the church came.
"Irina, it's mom," Kailin looked at Mir with a confused look. Mir nodded to her with a smile, and then Kailin ran over and opened the door: "Mom, where is mom?"
What Anna saw was a little girl. She had the knight's sword tucked behind her back, her eyes were a little evasive, and her tone was a little tangled: "Your mother, she..."
"Your mother, she is gone," Mir stepped forward and gently stroked Kailin's messy hair.
Anna was stunned for a moment when she saw Mir, but then she stood up straight and placed her palm on the badge that symbolized honor: "Mr. Mir, thank you for everything you have done for Stolen. If you had not discovered the heretic's den, The consequences at this time are disastrous!”
"I thought Lawrence wouldn't tell me."
"This is an honor. Thank you, Mr. Mir!" Anna's tone was sincere. Since Mir was here, everything made sense. Fearing that the heresy would attack the victim's family again, Mir immediately went to the victim's family to protect him.
Mill's gaze hinted Anna to look at Kailin, who saw that Kailin's face was downcast now, with countless tears rolling in her amber pupils: "So, is mom dead? I thought of it a long time ago. I can't find her, so Like when she couldn’t find her father.”
The surroundings became silent, except for the faint sound of crying.
Anna took her little hand and slowly pulled her into her arms, Mir gently stroked her hair,
The cat jumped off its head and onto Kailyn's shoulders, hugging her neck with its soft pads of flesh.
After an unknown amount of time, Kailin wiped her tears with her dirty sleeves and said with a choked voice, "Was my mother killed by a heretic? Was my father killed too? So, was all this done by a heretic?"
"That's why we came here," Anna said with a gentle face, but her tone seemed to be determined: "It's safe now, everything is safe."
"Thank you, are you a member of the same church as Mir?"
Mil's face looked a little embarrassed at the moment, but Anna gave him a gentle look and said, "Yes, he is the best church member."
Kailin pulled Anna to go into the house, and Mir also said: "Come in quickly, there is a nice bonfire here, I think we still have a lot to say."
"Okay," Anna nodded gently. Under the leadership of Kailin, she was sitting by the campfire. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of the baby on the bed. There was a trace of khaki smoke in her eyes, as if she was blinded by the wind and sand.
After looking at it for a long time, Kailin turned her head in doubt and looked at Mir next to her, showing a sincere and gentle smile.
