Late at night, the carriage was running fast on the street, and the icy cold wind kept pouring in through the gaps in the car windows. Worried that the little girl would catch a cold, Yulia covered her with a woven blanket to keep warm.
The skeleton cane just leaned aside quietly, and did not slip after several bumps. Yulia stared at it in a daze for a while, and then asked in a low voice:
"Mr. Ivel, I see that you always carry your cane. Is this your serial relic?"
Jiang Chenchuan quickly looked back and replied: "No, this is just an ordinary cane."
"All right."
Yulia was a little disappointed when she got the answer. She sat in the carriage and leaned her head against the window. However, the bumpy road almost gave her a concussion, so she quickly retreated.
"That yellow protective shield...is your relic, right?" After a while, Jiang Chenchuan said.
"yes."
Yulia raised her hand and lifted up her long sleeve, revealing her arm. On the long ugly scar was a delicate and beautiful silver bracelet with strange runes engraved on it.
"No. 309, Bracelet of Protection. Generally, newcomers in Sequence Three can borrow this for their first few missions. When they sense danger, they can use it to protect themselves. I even heard that they can use it to get out of trouble. After all, The spirit of resistance never gives up."
"Good."
Jiang Chenchuan's words drifted into the dark night.
Driving through the residential area of Belfa Street, the houses on both sides turned into large flower fields, and the thick steam condensed on the petals into light gray dew, dripping on the ground.
Because of the running of the carriage, the street lights and trees became double shadows, and the melodious whistle sounded in the distance, as if a train was about to speed past with steam and cold wind.
Even the air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers. Yulia leaned in the carriage and fell asleep. This is a flower species unique to England and Northern Ireland. It has a fresh fragrance. Jiang Chenchuan has always liked it, but he can't name the flower. .
"Well……"
The little girl frowned slightly in her sleep, as if she was troubled by something.
The night seemed darker.
Even Yulia felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't put it into words. A certain nerve was beating, and it seemed to remind her of a nightmare-like rainy night. She was like a poor and helpless kitten, hiding. Shivering in a corner of the street.
It rained heavily.
The man who was rescued by their family raised his knife and cut off the monster's neck. A few minutes ago, the monster was her family member.
Her movement against the car window did not change. She just stared at the same scene outside the window. After staring at it, she asked a question in confusion:
"Mr. Ewell, don't you think it took too long to go back?"
"..."
"..."
"I know."
Jiang Chenchuan replied in a calm voice.
He had always been driving the carriage, so he would be the first to notice any changes, but he didn't want Yulia to be too scared.
From three minutes ago,
The train whistle disappeared, but the surrounding scenery remained unchanged.
The unknown and terrifying force was approaching and shrouding the sky above them. The reason why it hadn't stopped yet was because Jiang Chenchuan discovered that a strange and twisted black shadow had grown out of the road and was following them, not at all slow.
Like a ghost hitting a wall, nightmare and reality overlap in one space, bringing with it the fear that invades the soul.
It's...the DeCavo family...
That familiar smell!
"Yuliya, get ready, it's coming."
With the howling wind, the carriage ran faster and faster, but horses are living creatures after all, and they have their limits of life.
This time, even Yulia felt that in the surrounding darkness, there seemed to be a pair of malicious eyes staring at her, full of bloodthirsty madness.
Trying to change my mind.
want to……
What do you want to kill...
want to……
want to……
A pair of warm hands patted Yulia's head gently, which seemed to be a kind of comfort, but it was also a kind of warning. Yulia suddenly came back to her senses, and she didn't even have time to be surprised by her evil thoughts just now.
"Mr. Ewell..."
With a whisper of dependence and nostalgia.
"It's too late, Yulia, listen to me. As soon as I turn the corner, you can jump out of the car with the child and the recycle bin, and hide in the flower field or anywhere, but don't stay too far away from me."
After Jiang Chenchuan simply explained, he picked up the skeleton cane in the car. It seemed that only holding this could make him feel more at ease. The clear floral fragrance carried the smell of industrial steam, and the World Tree in the distance had long been swallowed up by darkness.
From the last time on King Street to the time I came to my door now, it has indeed come faster.
Under the illumination of the street lights, their shadows seemed to be stretched very long and very short at the same time. Fortunately, they were far away from residential areas, so even if they were polluted, they would not harm innocent people.
"Ready, Yulia!"
There was no point in running anymore. Jiang Chenchuan pulled the reins and came to a sudden stop, which woke up the little girl. Fortunately, Yulia hugged her in time to avoid any bruises.
After a short stay,
Jiang Chenchuan drove the carriage and turned around. In the empty street, amid the flying petals, Yulia and the little girl jumped out of the carriage and rolled to the ground.
"Mr. Evel!"
As soon as he got up from the ground, he saw him getting ready for the battle.
But the horse also seems to be afraid of strange things,
Hesitant.
Jiang Chenchuan took out a short dagger from nowhere and plunged it directly into the horse's butt. The horse seemed to be going crazy and ran towards the monster.
Yulia felt that the dagger looked familiar. When she touched it, she found that it was indeed gone. It was a tool for self-defense, but Jiang Chenchuan actually took it away.
The scene in front of her was so dangerous that she wouldn't say anything. She could only take the little girl to find a place to hide.
"Sister, what are those?"
Following the direction of the little girl's finger, countless ferocious arms stretched out from the flower field. They were densely packed and twisted human shapes emerged from the ground.
"Shh-be good, don't talk and follow me."
Yulia held the little girl's hand and slowly moved away from those weird human figures.
At this time, Jiang Chenchuan was climbing on the roof of the car, holding on to his skeleton cane against the strong wind. The night was so dark tonight, and there was no moonlight above his head. It seemed that only this land had light, so, All weirdness moves towards the light.
"I want to eat French fries..."
Jiang Chenchuan sighed inwardly.
At the same time, the crazy horse crashed desperately into the twisting black shadow running fast. At the moment of the collision, Jiang Chenchuan jumped up...
"Click."
A button is pressed.
The ingenious mechanism was activated, and the lower part of the black cane slipped off, revealing the sharp and cold edge inside.
The ruthless Mr. Ivel cut off the monster's head without any expression on his face.
