Chapter 874 Nightmare?
Chapter 874 Nightmare?
Do you come to my house every day when I'm not at home?
After hearing Anna’s words, the expression on Leon’s face couldn’t help but stagnate slightly, and the corresponding scene unconsciously emerged in his mind.
When I left home, she would come over quietly every day to take a look, hoping to see me in the house, smiling and greeting her, but in the end she could only sigh softly, then either close the door and leave with a little disappointment, or come in and sit on the bed for a while...
"I'm sorry, Anna. I've been too busy lately, and I can't stay at home for too long this time... I can probably stay for about seven or eight days before I have to go out again."
"That's it..."
Seeing Leon with a guilty look on his face, the thin girl couldn't help but blink, then reached out to help Leon straighten his collar, and then chuckled and said:
"It's already very good to have seven or eight days, and you're not fooling around, but you have important things to do... um..."
When she said this, Anna suddenly paused for a moment, then stopped adjusting her collar, and said with a slightly awkward expression:
"Brother...where did you go just now?"
what?
Faced with Anna's question, Leon couldn't help but be slightly startled, and then asked back:
"I just came back from the bureau and reported the results of my business trip to the director... Is there anything wrong?"
"..."
Something is wrong... everything is wrong, okay?
After looking at the lipstick marks on Leon's collar and smelling the mixed scent of alcohol and women on him, the thin girl couldn't help but pursed her lips, then reached out and twisted Leon's waist in annoyance.
After noticing where his sister's gaze was, Leon also discovered these...remaining traces, and then quickly waved his hand to explain:
"Anna, it's not what you think! The director has been worried lately and drank a little too much today. I just happened to go home, so she hugged me... Really! I didn't do anything!"
"You better be!"
After glaring at the increasingly suspicious elder brother, the thin girl said nothing, but reached out to help him change his coat, picked out two drunken red hairs from it, rolled them up and stuffed them back into Leon's hands.
"Take off your clothes!"
"what?"
"Hurry up and change into something that's not stained with lipstick! I'll wash this shirt for you!"
After giving Leon a cold look, Anna couldn't help but twist his waist again, then gritted her teeth and reminded him:
"Aren't you going to see Sister Veronica when you come back? Are you going to meet her wearing this?"
"oh oh!"
After hearing Anna's words, Leon suddenly woke up from his dream, and quickly changed his shirt that had been wrinkled by the director, then grabbed his coat and whispered:
"Um, don't touch the hair on it. I'll take care of it. This thing is quite dangerous."
I think you are more dangerous!
After Leon took off the drunken [Blood-Slaying Hair] and confirmed that there was no residue left, the thin girl took away his coat and shirt, pushed the door open and left angrily. After a while, she came back with a set of folded clothes and threw them into the arms of the shirtless Leon in a bad mood.
"Hurry up and change it, or you'll catch a cold!"
"Oh……"
Just as Leon followed his sister's instructions and began to put on his clothes, Anna beside him hesitated for a moment, then asked softly:
"Brother, your job in the Cleanup Bureau is to deal with things that don't exist in reality?"
"what?"
"Like having nightmares continuously..." Nightmare?
After putting on the slightly smaller clothes, looking at his sister's hesitant expression, the Dream World Destroyer, Nightmare Lord, Nightmare Ang couldn't help but blink and said in disbelief:
"Anna? Why are you asking this all of a sudden? Are you having a nightmare?"
Who is so bold that he actually rushed to my sister's head to achieve sales? If I knew which damn nightmare dared to harass Anna, I would definitely go down and...
"It's not me who has the nightmare."
Just as Leon was about to mobilize the seven nightmare messengers to investigate the Soul-Falling Black Abyss thoroughly, the thin girl shook her head slightly, saving the innocent nightmares in the Soul-Falling Black Abyss, and then frowned and said:
"It's Ellie... Sister Emma brought her to me and asked me to take care of her. A few days after I went on a business trip, the child started to have nightmares. Every day she dreamed of some... some very bad scenes."
Leon couldn't help but ponder for a moment after hearing this, and then asked:
"Those bad pictures mean..."
"Just...some scenes where Sister Emma is suffering."
After pursing her lips slightly, Anna said with a worried look:
"The child couldn't explain the specific situation, but she was very sad every time she woke up. Yesterday, she even hugged me and couldn't stop crying. No matter how I comforted her, it was useless. She kept saying things like 'Mommy is in pain' and 'It's so dark around me'."
"..."
Senior Emma...
After listening to Anna's worried retelling, Leon, who had guessed what was going on, suddenly fell silent.
The [Sin of the Flower] possessed by Senior Emma and the [Sorrow of the Flower] possessed by little Ellie are actually a set of "paired" undead anomalies, and there is probably some connection between them.
Due to the sneak attack by the masters of the dead world, the royal ship where Senior Emma was was dragged into the dead world. Little Ellie probably relied on the connection between the two abnormal objects to feel the pain she was experiencing...
"elder brother?"
Noticing that Leon's expression was different, Anna couldn't help but reach out and grab his arm, asking anxiously:
"Do you know anything about little Ellie's nightmares? Could it be that... something really happened to Sister Emma?"
"Um……"
After a slight hesitation, Leon nodded helplessly:
"Senior Emma was ambushed by the enemy while on a mission, and was captured along with dozens of cleaners. Although they should be safe now, they are being held in a very dangerous place and cannot return for the time being."
"?!"
After hearing Leon's words, Anna's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and then she couldn't help but grab Leon's arm and asked:
"Then you...then in seven or eight days, are you going to..."
"..."
I knew it would be like this...
Facing his sister who had guessed the general situation directly after he had only let out a few words, Leon couldn't help but sigh slightly, then reached out to tuck her drooping hair behind her ears, and then looked into her nervous eyes and comforted her in a gentle voice:
"Don't worry, I'm not the only one on this mission. There are many very powerful old...seniors who will also go. In the end, it will definitely be foolproof and we will successfully rescue Senior Emma...
By the way, Anna, is little Ellie awake now? If she hasn’t woken up yet, let me go over to check on her first! "
