It's an unknown suburban area.

Its location is not remote, but it is far from the crowded city.

No one will come here because there is nothing to visit here.

If there's any evidence of human existence here, it's the mansion.

It was a mansion that seemed to announce to the world that it had no connection with the red dust, and it was located in this uninhabited suburb.

The mansion is pure Japanese, and the interior has a beautiful garden that matches the outside, and is planted with a variety of flowers and trees.

In addition, there are various small animals in this mansion.

Birds chirp in the trees.

The hound barks low on the ground.

Beetles flutter in the air.

Fish and shrimp swim in the pool.

At first glance, this appears to be a small zoo that has been carefully cared for.

But who knows?

These little animals that look alive are all dolls.

"It's amazing..."

Luo Zhen stood in this garden, and in his heart there was only amazement in his heart.

"Are all of these the works of Hua Liuzhai?"

If that's the case, then it's understandable why this puppeteer is called the first person in the world of bionic dolls.

Because, the puppets he made are so vivid, compared with real life, there is not much difference at all.

"If it weren't for the fact that the Sky Eye couldn't detect the heartbeat of these animals, I wouldn't have imagined that they were all puppets."

How could Luo Zhen not be surprised?

"Compared to these dolls, the dolls of the Akabane family are just hairy puppets, right?"

Luo Zhen couldn't help but think so.

It's been three days since I started from Akabane's house and came here.

In the past three days, in order to come here, Luo Zhen took a carriage without stopping, and he didn't know how many means of transportation he had transferred, and finally found this.

"But why doesn't there seem to be anyone here?"

Luo Zhen knocked on the door for a long time, and shouted at the mansion for an unknown number of times, but no one responded to him, as if this was a dead house with no one, and the silence was unbearable.

This made Luo Zhen repeatedly confirm the address given to him by Akabane Kongguan, and after confirming that he was not looking for the wrong place, he couldn't help but push open the door and walk in.

Then, the scene in front of him was presented in front of Luo Zhen.

Looking at those vivid dolls, Luo Zhen once again confirmed that he was not looking for the wrong place.

"Then why hasn't anyone responded?"

Luo Zhen was a little puzzled.

So, Luo Zhen subconsciously opened the "Heavenly Eye", scattered the magic waves around, and also used the skill of "Spiritual Vision", and his gaze swept in all directions.

In this moment...

"Huh!"

The sound of the air being cut through rang out.

“————！”

Luo Zhen's nerves were instantly stirred.

At the same time, the "Eye of the Sky" that it uses with all its might also probe the incoming attack to a complete extent.

"Ice...!?"

The incoming attack was an ice pick that pierced through the air and burst towards this side.

The sharp ice pick slashed through at the speed of bullets, stabbing straight in the direction of Luo Zhen, and landed on him involuntarily.

"Boom!"

After a crisp sound, the icicle was blocked by a sudden unfolding telekinetic shield.

Luo Zhen unfolded the shield of the Demon Defense by his side, and took a few steps back, speaking loudly to the surroundings.

"May I ask if it's Your Excellency Hua Liuzhai? Under is the envoy of the Akabane family! I hope to see you! ”

As soon as the sound rang out, the faint chill that rippled in the air stopped.

However, the tension did not ease in the slightest.

Half a moment later, a cold voice rang out.

"The house has no reservations to receive guests today, and I think you're still young, forgive your trespassing, please go back."

Such a voice came into Luo Zhen's ears, although it was cold, there was an indescribable lightness and elegance.

Presumably, the owner of the voice must be a beautiful girl.

"Girl?" Luo Zhen secretly thought: "Is it Hua Liuzhai's entourage?" Or is it a doll that he made? ”

If it's a doll, it's undoubtedly an automaton with a built-in magic loop.

After all, the cold ice just now was clearly an attack by means of magic.

Coupled with the other party's intelligent words, if it weren't for humans, then only automata equipped with life circuits could do it.

As soon as he thought of this, Luo Zhen's heart became active.

"After all these years in this world, I've never seen a real automaton."

Now that there is such a good opportunity, Luo Zhen naturally can't miss it.

At that moment, Luo Zhen pondered his words and spoke out again.

"Please also tell Your Excellency Hua Liuzhai that I have no ill intentions, I am just here to deliver the message."

Luo Zhen lowered his posture slightly, giving the other party a feeling that he was insignificant and could not pose a threat at all.

In this case, the other party should think about it somewhat, right?

Sure enough...

"Messenger?"

The girl's cold voice rang out again.

"In that case, then give me the letter."

As soon as the words fell, the faint chill in the air disappeared.

Luo Zhen was stunned at first, and then the "Heavenly Eye" detected something, causing him to turn around and look in the direction of the mansion in front of him.

There, a figure slowly walked out.

It was a beautiful girl who matched the voice just now.

The girl is wearing a kimono, her body is elegant, and her delicate face does not look like something that should be in the world at all, as if it has been carefully carved by an artist, and the beauty is breathtaking.

She has waist-length silver-white hair and a faint chill all over her body, and she looks like a fairy coming out of the snow, which makes people lose their minds.

The goddess of snow.

This is the most appropriate adjective for the other person.

"Snow...?"

Luo Zhen couldn't help but think about it.

"Could it be..."

While there was some speculation in his heart, Luo Zhen's eyes never left the other party's body, there was no infatuation and gaffe in his eyes, some were just amazement and appreciation.

And the other party seemed to be used to this kind of gaze, and didn't care much about it, just stopped at a distance away from Luo Zhen, looked at him, and said lightly.

"Hand over the letter."

Between the words, there is no politeness at all.

And of course.

Who let Luo Zhen trespass in?

Therefore, Luo Zhen didn't say anything, and directly handed the letter to the girl in front of him.

The girl took the letter.

"Just wait here for a moment."

With that, the snowy maiden took a stride and left the place, returning to the mansion.

Luo Zhen was not in a hurry, and continued to stand in the courtyard, looking curiously at the vivid little animals around him.

And this wait, it took half an hour.

Half an hour later...

"Is the son of the Akabane family?"

The girl in the snow came out of the mansion again, looked at Luo Zhen with inexplicable eyes, and said this.

"Master, please come in, come with me."

Hearing this, Luo Zhen smiled.
