In the drawer of the desk in the reception room, Li Ang found a piece of paper and several half-carved pieces of wood.
The design draft of the new doll was drawn on the paper, and the rough outline of the face was carved out of the wood.
Li Ang studied the design drafts and wood carvings for a long time, and suddenly realized: "Isn't it just me?"
The next second, not only Angie ran out of the hiding place, but Miss Donna also appeared.
"Give him back to me!" Anji jumped up on the desk, eager to snatch what was in Li Ang's hand.
Although Donna stood still, her hands were already making gestures like puppet control.
It was like there were many invisible threads connecting her and Angie.
Li Ang easily subdued the puppet, restrained it in his arms so that it could not move, and said to the puppet master: "Come, come sit down, let's talk."
Unexpectedly, while Anji fought hard, Donna's body under her mourning clothes was also shaking with her.
Li Ang had no choice but to change his position and let the puppet sit on his lap: "It's okay this time. If you don't come over, I will come over."
Donna sat down across the desk without saying a word, and Angie in his arms also calmed down.
Li Ang picked up the piece of paper, raised it to his face and asked, "Is this me?"
Donna remained silent, and Angie remained silent as well.
Seeing her hunched back, bowed head and chest, and her timid appearance, Li Ang couldn't help but lectured: "Raise your head and straighten your waist!"
Suddenly, Donna seemed to hear her late father's voice and sat up hurriedly.
But after holding on for a while, he involuntarily softened.
"Forget it, do whatever makes you feel comfortable." Li Ang looked helpless.
No matter what, she finally dared to look up at herself.
Putting the design draft and wood carving aside, he was about to speak, but found that Donna's attention had also moved there.
"Look at me!"
Donna immediately came to her senses and looked extremely well-behaved.
Li Ang couldn't help but sigh. Is it so difficult to get along with people with autism?
So he simply kept the story short: "I'll ask you an answer."
Donna moved her gaze to Angie in his arms, as if to say give it to me.
"No." There was no room for negotiation in Li Ang's tone: "You just need to nod or shake your head."
Donna lowered her head and twisted the hands on her legs, not knowing what she meant.
Li Ang ignored her and continued: "Do you want Miranda to die?"
As soon as these words came out, the puppet master reacted extremely fiercely and instantly looked up at the man in front of him.
A strong fragrance filled the air, and the surrounding scenery gradually distorted. More and more weird dolls appeared in the field of vision. Some were floating in the air, some were hiding in corners, and some poked their heads in from outside the door. They used Staring at Li Ang with dull eyes, he let out a sharp and harsh laugh.
Li Ang pretended that nothing happened, smoothed the wrinkles on the puppet bride's gauze skirt, and repeated:
"Do you want Miranda dead?"
Donna looked at Angie in someone else's arms and nodded her head very slightly, but immediately changed it to shaking her head.
Li Ang saw her reaction in his eyes and asked, "Then do you want to see your parents again?"
This time the puppet master's reaction was even greater than last time. He stood up and nodded excitedly.
Li Ang waved her hand to sit down first, and said seductively like a devil seducing people into depravity: "Are you willing to trade the chance of seeing your parents again in exchange for Miranda's death?"
Facing the conditions he proposed, Donna was extremely confused.
On the one hand, Miranda treated her as her own daughter, but on the other hand, she was not sure whether what the man in front of her said was true.
Donna anxiously reached out to Angie, but Li Ang did not refuse this time and returned her emotional sustenance to her.
Angie came to life again, her high-pitched voice trembling slightly: "But I can't beat her!"
Li Ang picked up the wooden carving on the side and played with it: "You don't need to do anything, you just need to do nothing to help each other."
"Is it that simple?" Anji was puzzled.
Li Ang put his hands in a pool: "It's that simple."
Donna thought for a moment and made a condition through Angie: "I don't believe you unless you let me meet my parents first."
Li Ang seemed to have heard something interesting. He stood up with a smile and walked around behind her, putting his hands on her shoulders: "You have no choice, only agree or not."
"Aqina and I came to you late at night, not to negotiate terms with you."
The puppeteer twisted his body uncomfortably and tried to shake off the hand on his shoulder. Angie in his arms said, "I'm not afraid of death. You don't need to threaten me."
Li Ang lowered his body and whispered in her ear: "But your parents are afraid."
Donna tried her best to avoid his burning breath, and Angie said tremblingly: "They are already dead."
"Ha!" Li Ang laughed dryly and returned to his previous position: "Who knows?"
After a while, Donna bit her thumb through the headscarf, feeling undecided.
Outside the living room, Aqina's lazy voice sounded: "Aren't you finished yet? I'm starting to feel sleepy."
Li Ang raised his chin, looked at Donna, and responded loudly: "The negotiation is not going very well. Our Miss Donna seems to disagree with our brilliant plan."
"That's it." Aqina said pointedly: "This house is really dilapidated. It should be renovated next spring and all the flowers and grass should be pulled out!"
Minutes passed, and finally, under a lot of pressure, Donna made a decision.
"I agree, but I hope what you say is true. If you dare to lie to me, you will know the consequences!" Anji said fiercely.
"I never lie." Li Ang said calmly.
"Indeed." Aqina echoed, but she didn't know how sincere it was.
Li Ang, who was in a happy mood, stood up and planned to leave: "I wish us a happy cooperation, Miss Donna. I guess it won't be long before your wish comes true."
But Donna suddenly stopped him and said, "Give...things...back...to me."
This time he really spoke in person.
Li Ang raised the wood carving and design draft in his hand: "Do you think it looks like me?"
Donna nodded subconsciously: "Like."
"No, this is me!" Li Ang walked out of the reception room without looking back.
At the same time, I was still thinking that there is a high probability that the consciousness of the Benevento people of all generations exists in the body of the bacteria. For Miranda, it should not be difficult to make Donna a parent again, just like Rose in the DLC, but why does she Why not do this?
Leon, who couldn't figure it out, was about to return to the castle with Aqina.
well? Where's my big wife? Was here just now! ! !
The rocking chair in the foyer was still rocking back and forth, but there was no familiar figure on it.
Realizing something was wrong, Li Ang immediately turned around. Donna was standing at the door of the reception room holding Anji, and Anji was smiling.
Everything in his eyes became more and more illusory, like a dream bubble, filled with a sense of unreality.
When Li Ang came to his senses again, he found that he was tied to the bed.
"Psychedelic pollen? When?"
Donna came into view, still wearing her black hood, straddling him.
"It's not hallucination, it's Cui...qing."
