What's more, this city is also very suitable for living in Cellulus in terms of other considerations. Banxai is a medium-sized city, neither too big nor too small. Living here does not have the pollution, noise, and high crime rate of big cities. The pace of life is too fast, the pressure is too high, and it is difficult to make a living. It is also not like a small place because it is too narrow, information is very closed, and jobs are not easy to find.
And the most important thing is that in terms of human relationships, such a medium-sized city is also the most suitable. It does not have the indifference of human relationships in big cities. You may not even know who your neighbors are after living there for a few years. When you encounter difficulties, you will basically be able to deal with them. No one wants to help in this dilemma. There is no such thing as a small place where it is difficult to maintain privacy because the place is too small, the residents know each other too well, and the residents are too enthusiastic.
Cellulu hopes for a close but not close relationship, a warm but not passionate way of communication, which is also very beneficial to hiding her abnormalities. It is indeed not easy to expose her secrets in a big city, but it makes her feel very tired. , no one cares about me, no one is with me, and I feel lonely. Although it is easy to get acquainted with people in a small place, and the relationship between neighbors will indeed be closer, but being too close is also a headache for Cellululu. In this kind of place, there is almost no privacy, the parents are short-lived, and each family's affairs You all know it, but this also increases the risk of your secret being exposed and shortens the time she can live there.
Therefore, the situation in medium-sized cities where human relationships are maintained at a distance that is neither close nor far, and where they are neither close nor strangers to each other, is the most suitable for Cellululu. The relationship of nodding and greeting, neither close nor distant, is Cellululu's favorite distance is that when something happens, others will help you but will not interfere too much in your private affairs.
With 40 million in her pocket, many things have become much easier. After arriving in this city, Cellulu inquired in and outside the city every day if anyone wanted to rent a house. She did not want to go through an agency to find it, because the identity check there was too complicated. It is strict and the procedures are complete, so it is difficult for her to get through. Fortunately, there are always some people who do not want to rent through an agency, either because they are lazy or unwilling to bear the agency fee. In short, after three days of running, Cellululu quickly found a house that was relatively close to the suburbs. Just a few stops away by bus, you would reach the Flower Plain outside the city.
Although it is a detached house, it is not very big. It has a layout of three bedrooms and one living room at best. However, Celulu lives alone anyway, so she doesn’t care. In fact, the design of this house is quite unreasonable. The house is very It is small, but the front and rear gardens are quite large. You can almost build two or three more houses in the garden. It is probably impractical and difficult to rent out, so the rent is not high.
But Celluloid liked it very much after seeing it. The garden has a sense of winding paths. Looking through the door of the front yard, one can hardly see the house, which is blocked by dense trees. There is even a small pond dug in the backyard. , but it has become stinky due to neglect, but Celluloid doesn't mind. It just needs to be tidied up a little after moving in. The result of the house inspection was quite satisfactory, and Cellululu immediately made the decision to book the house.
Using mind control to confuse the issue of identity, Cellululu paid half a year's rent to the landlord in one go. The landlord was an old man in his seventies. Seeing that Cellululu was willing to borrow the money, he was already very happy and left the rental contract. , happily collected the rent and left.
After moving in, it took about a week to organize the house until it was roughly habitable. As for the garden, it had to be done slowly. However, Cellululu did not forget that she still owed others favors and money, so after almost settling in, she prepared After a while, we immediately went to Whale Island first.
Xiaojie and Mitte were extremely happy to see Cellululu, but they also blamed her for coming to pay back the money in such a hurry. They exchanged a few words and quickly let her in. Their mother-in-law was sitting in the room and saw Cellululu. , patted her with a smile, and was very happy that she could come again.
After paying back the money, Cellulu took out a shawl and a skirt, spread them out, smiled and said to Mitte and her mother-in-law:
"Mother-in-law, Miss Mitt, thank you very much for taking care of me last time. This time I brought two things. It's just a small thing. I hope you will accept it."
While talking, Cellululu shook out the shawl and smiled at her mother-in-law:
"Mother-in-law, this is the shawl I gave you. I knitted it myself. The weather is cold and it comes in handy. Please don't refuse it. You must accept it."
Seeing that the celluloid was so determined, my mother-in-law no longer refused and happily accepted it. The shawl was a warm camel color with fine flowers on it and complicated tassels on the side, just like a handicraft.
Seeing such a delicate shawl, my mother-in-law squinted her eyes and praised:
"The celluloid hands are so skillful that my mother-in-law is reluctant to wear it on her body."
"No, mother-in-law, you are too complimentary." Cellululu turned her head in awe, picked up the skirt again, looked at Mitt, and said sincerely:
"Miss Mitt, thank you last time. This is also a dress I made myself. I hope you can accept it. This dress is a summer dress, because the embroidery I am good at is more suitable for embroidering on thinner fabrics. I hope it will be fine next summer. Miss Te can put it on, and the size should match it, but I still ask you to try it on, and I can change it if there's anything wrong."
When Mitte saw the exquisite shawl, he liked it very much. Seeing that Cellululu was so sincere, he was no longer polite. He accepted Cellululu's intention generously and went into the room with her to try on clothes.
The skirt is made of brocade material, quite smooth, with a pearl white background. It has a short knee-length skirt with spaghetti straps. The style is very simple, but the flowers embroidered on it suddenly make the dress more dazzling. Starting from the right chest, the light Purple wisteria flowers and light green branches and leaves are intertwined with each other, extending all the way down to the skirt. The complex and exquisite embroidery work makes the wisteria flowers appear alive. Looking from a distance, the skirt is half white and half purple. The only thing about it is that The large piece of purple echoes the wisteria woven from the brocade on the spaghetti strap on the left. The overall clothing is extremely elegant, yet has a low-key gorgeousness.
Seeing this dress, Mitt liked it so much that he couldn't put it down. He put it on immediately. The dress fit perfectly and there was no need to change it. Mitt's red hair went well with purple. Mitt was not old yet, but he always wore it. Simple and low-key clothes always make people feel a few years older than their actual age. Now that she wears this dress, she looks like a teenage girl, looking youthful and attractive.
Excited Mitt turned left and right in front of the mirror, smiling happily at the celluloid:
"Celulu, this dress is so beautiful, thank you."
"As long as you like it, go out and show it to your mother-in-law and Xiaojie. They will definitely be surprised." Seeing that Mitt was so satisfied with the dress, Celluloid was also very happy and urged Mitt to go out and show it off.
Seeing Mitte's new outfit, her mother-in-law kept nodding her head appreciatively. Xiaojie's eyes widened in surprise and he screamed:
"Aunt Mitt, are you a child again?"
Hearing this, Mitte immediately raised his sleeves, looked at Xiaojie pretending to be fierce, and laughed and cursed:
"What did you say? Xiaojie? Am I, your aunt, very old?"
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Xiaojie hurriedly made amends with a smile:
"No, no, Aunt Mitt doesn't age, because Aunt Mitt has become so beautiful and young, so——"
"There's no need to explain. Explanation is equal to covering up." Mitte rushed over and rubbed Xiaojie's head hard. Celluloid and her mother-in-law looked on and couldn't help but laugh.
Xiaojie, who finally escaped from the clutches of the devil, was stroking his hair and muttering to himself. Seeing that Aunt Mit and his mother-in-law had received beautiful gifts, he was a little envious and glanced at the celluloid involuntarily.
Cellululu, who noticed Xiaojie's gaze, turned around and saw Xiaojie looking at her with big eyes. Although he didn't say anything, he was obviously still a little eager for the gift. Cellululu secretly smiled knowingly and looked at Mitte. said:
"Miss Mitt, can I go for a walk with Xiaojie?"
"Well, of course." Mitte was still admiring the dress made for her by Celluloid, and agreed without even looking back.
"Xiaojie, come with me for a walk."
Seeing that Mitte agreed, Cellululu stood up, nodded to her mother-in-law, and pulled Xiaojie out of the door. Xiaojie also let Cellululu pull her, and the two walked towards the forest for a while, making sure they couldn't see the people behind. Behind the house, Cellululu stopped, turned around, winked at Xiaojie, and said with a smile:
"Haha, Xiaojie, are you wondering why you don't have a gift for yourself?"
Seeing Xiaojie blushing and wanting to refute, Cellululu quickly interrupted Xiaojie's words and continued:
"Actually, I have prepared a gift for Xiaojie, but it is not convenient to take it out in front of Miss Mitt, because I am afraid that Miss Mitt will go crazy."
Seeing Xiaojie's confused look, he obviously didn't understand why Aunt Mitt got mad at the gift she gave him. Celluloid stopped being pretentious and took out a small bottle from her skirt pocket and handed it to Xiaojie, watching Xiaojie take it. Finally, playing with it curiously, and raising it to the sun from time to time, Cellululu could not help but curl her lips and said softly:
"This bottle contains a kind of flower called Tilan. I heard your father said it is a very precious and rare medicinal material. It seems to be something that can supplement -, supplement -"
Speaking of this, Cellululu stopped. For a moment, she couldn't remember what she could add. She pressed her eyebrows and recalled for a while, and then an idea flashed:
"Ah, by the way, it is said to be able to supplement the ability of telekinesis. Your father went to that forest just to find this kind of flower. This was also what your father gave to me at that time."
Xiaojie was listening with great interest, but when he heard that it was his father who gave it to Cellululu, he was startled and looked at Cellululu with disapproval. He wanted to return the flower to her and said awkwardly:
"Sister Cellululu, this is given to you by dad, I can't accept it~~"
Cellululu quickly waved her hand to tell him not to be impatient, and advised:
"Don't be in a hurry to return it to me. Mr. Jin gave me five tilans at that time, so it doesn't matter if I give this to you. Besides, I can't actually use such a precious thing. Giving it to you is just a gift to you." Think about it, you probably don’t have anything left by your father. Take this tilan as a spur to yourself. Don’t you want to catch up with your father? Then don’t forget this wish. "
Hearing Cellululu's words, Xiaojie lowered his head and thought for a moment, and seemed to have figured it out. He nodded vigorously towards Cellululu, gave her a bright smile, and looked at her with burning eyes:
"Sister Cellululu, I understand, then I will accept it, thank you."
Xiaojie touched the bottle with a cherished expression, and after taking another look, Xiaojie carefully put the bottle away.
"Well, hehe, but now you know why I said that Mitt will go crazy after seeing this gift."
Seeing Xiaojie accept it, Cellululu started teasing her in a good mood.
Xiaojie stuck out his tongue, obviously thinking of the reason.
"Yeah, Aunt Mitt can't stand people mentioning gold in front of her. If Sister Celluloid had just taken it out, Aunt Mitt would never let me accept it."
"Ah! That's right," Xiaojie suddenly shouted as if he remembered something, turned his head and looked at Cellululu curiously:
"Sister Cellulu, you just said that Tilan can replenish telekinesis. So, what is telekinesis?"
"ah?"
Obviously she didn't expect Xiaojie to ask about this. Cellululu was stunned for a moment. After thinking hard for a long time, she found that she didn't know what telekinesis was. After listening to Jin's explanation, she didn't ask further because she wasn't interested. When Xiaojie asked at this time, he could only look at him apologetically:
"I'm sorry, Xiaojie, sister, I don't know what telekinesis is, so I can't answer you."
"Yeah! It doesn't matter. I'll ask dad when I find him later." Xiaojie shook his head nonchalantly and answered with confidence.
The two walked back talking and laughing. Mitte enthusiastically invited Cellululu to stay for two days before leaving. Cellululu readily agreed without any further objections. Three days later, she said goodbye to Xiaojie and the others, saying that she would be free in the future. Will definitely come again.
But the other party obviously said it too late. Cellululu only felt a blackening in front of her eyes, which was the reaction of insufficient blood supply to the brain. She covered her head and waited for the dizziness to pass. After she regained her clarity, Cellululu looked at her. The current situation is in a clean and simple house. She is sitting on the bed with a blanket covering her body, and the girl is standing next to her.
Cellululu suddenly didn't understand the situation. Why was she here? Who is the girl in front of me? She said hesitantly:
"Excuse me~~~Why am I here? Who are you?"
"Ah~, my name is Lillian. When I came back at night, I saw you lying outside my door. I pushed you for a long time and you didn't respond. I thought it was dangerous for you as a girl to be outside, so I took you home. .”
The girl smiled tenderly at Cellululu and explained the cause and effect clearly in a soft voice.
"Ah, Miss Lillian, thank you. I'm really sorry to trouble you."
Hearing the girl say that she would be picked up and brought home, Cellululu subconsciously thanked her, and then immediately thought of a question,
"Is this Tulai?" Cellululu asked cautiously. She didn't know whether she was killed and transferred, or whether she was kidnapped by the last person she saw in her memory and dumped at the door of Lillian's house. .
"Huh? Where is Tulay? I don't know, this is Cohen." Lillian looked at Celluloid in confusion, obviously not understanding how the other party didn't even know where she was.
Seeing Lillian's dazed look when she heard about Tulay, and then definitely told herself that she was now in Cohen, Cellululu's heart sank. However, Cellululu, who was unwilling to give up, thought that maybe Tulay's name was not very well known. Maybe Cohen is near Tule. Thinking about this, Celluloid confirmed to Lillian again:
"Well, Miss Lillian, do you know Laxiang Mountain? Is it close to there?"
"Ah~~are you talking about the Spicy Mountain that produces the drug-like ore?" Lillian asked in slight surprise,
"But why did you ask about it? Laxiang Mountain is very far away from here. It is in the northwest of the Asilima Continent, but Cohen is in the middle of the Yorubian Continent. It takes several days to take an airship. Were you there before?" Frowning slightly, Lillian looked at Celluloid and explained in a soft voice.
When Celluloid heard the geographical locations of the two places, she understood that she had not been kidnapped, but had been transferred from Tulai to Korn after being killed.
For not being able to understand her situation in time this time, she cannot blame Cellululu for being slow. In fact, she had no feeling at all about this death, no pain or any discomfort, and she did not even see how the other party took action. , so she always thought that she had fainted, but the facts in front of her told her that she was completely wrong.
Thinking about the handsome young man in her last memory, Cellululu speculated that it was him who killed her, and that the other party was probably a professional killer, as he struck so quickly and accurately.
But why did that young man not take action when he first saw him, but then he took action again? Cellululu was a little confused for a moment, thinking hard, and suddenly remembered something.
At that time, when she saw that young man, she always felt a strange sense of familiarity. He was obviously someone she didn't know, but it gave her a sense of long-lasting nostalgia. It seemed that she suddenly remembered something, so she was about to shout out. Sound. Isn't it because of this? The killer thought he was going to call someone, so he silenced him! If that's the case, then I'm really looking for death myself. Cellululu thought with a black line, speechless at her stupid behavior.
Moreover, thanks to the sudden assassination of that young man, the hazy memory of the strange familiarity in my mind has disappeared without a trace, and I can't remember where I saw this scene at all. It’s really a loss of both the wife and the army, Cellululu sighed.
Lillian next to her saw that Cellulu looked deeply shocked after hearing her words, and her face was unpredictable. She couldn't help but look at Cellulu worriedly, hesitated for a moment, and asked softly:
"Um, are you okay? Did something happen? Why didn't you even know that you were in Cohen? Look at the uniform you are wearing, which house's maid are you from? Well~~ But the clothes are a bit torn. I saw your He was unconscious at the time, so he couldn't have been kidnapped along with his master and then dumped at the door of my house!"
Lillian glanced at her uniform, seeming to think about the situation when she saw the celluloid, a little thoughtful, and finally asked suddenly as if she suddenly realized something.
"Er~~~~I'm not very sure. It's probably what you said. I went to find the boss before, but I fainted when I came to the door of the boss's room. When I woke up, I was here. I don't know what happened. thing."
Since the other party had already found a reasonable reason for her, Cellululu didn't want to bother thinking of another one, so she told the story half-truthfully and half-falsely, leaving Lillian to imagine what happened after she fainted.
"Ah, up to now, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Cellululu. Thank you for saving me, Miss Lillian." Thinking that he had been talking to the blond girl in front of him for a long time, but had not introduced himself at all, Seemingly rude, Cellululu quickly spoke up to make amends.
"Well..., there's another thing, I don't know if it's convenient or not..." After introducing herself, Cellululu thought of her current situation and looked at Lillian hesitantly, swaying and hesitating.
Looking up, she saw Lillian smiling softly and looking at her encouragingly. Cellululu continued speaking sheepishly:
"Miss Lillian, I don't know this city very well, and I don't know where to go right now. So if it's convenient for you, I wonder if you can stay with me for one night. I'll leave at dawn. Of course, if it's not convenient for you, , Forget it." Cellululu finally added as if she was afraid of Lillian being embarrassed.
"Haha, I thought you were going to say something. Don't worry! Even if you live here, in fact, if you have no other plans, it's okay to stay with me. I only live in this house. , usually I am quite lonely by myself. I have always wanted to find a roommate. Ah, look at me, I am always rambling. It seems a little early to tell you this now, but if you have nowhere to go, you You should really consider it. I don’t know why, but I felt very attracted to you as soon as I saw you. Also, you don’t have to be polite to me, just call me Lillian." Lillian smiled softly, Pat the celluloid to put her mind at ease.
