Seeing the busy people around him, Ye Zi didn't expect that he would have a day close to the mundane town. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After entering the boundary of the border town, the low brick and mud bungalows appeared in front of her one after another like dusty memories for a long time. It had been less than half a year since she fled into the Desperate Mountain Range, but she felt that the scene in front of her was as strange as another world.

Just after the Demon Moon, the townsfolk should have looked and were in poor health after the winter of lack of food and clothing, and Ye Zi remembered that the Mutual Aid Society had passed through the slums of Silverlight City in the winter - there were starving and frozen corpses everywhere, and those who were still alive were like walking corpses, looking numb and slow.

But here, most of the people she saw were full of energy, some drying dried fish at the door, some climbing the roof to repair the broken tiles, and more middle-aged men with hoes and hammers on their backs, talking and laughing with each other and walking north of the town. In this case, the leaves will pull down the brim of the hat and avoid it as much as possible.

The castle is prominently located on a high hillside in the southwest corner of the town. There are no plants around that can be used, and it is difficult to sneak in without a sound. It's okay to hide in the trunk of a tree to avoid enemies, but it's too much to get a tree to climb up and send you in.

She is not a witch who is good at hiding her figure, and after thinking about it again, Ye Zi felt that instead of hiding, it was better to walk into the castle openly.

If Nightingale hadn't lied to her, there would have been no problem even if she walked in through the main entrance.

If Nightingale had deceived her, deceived her Aid sisters, she would have escaped from the pursuit of the two guards in front of the door.

Of course, the worst-case scenario is that Nightingale completely betrays everyone and relies on witch hunting to serve the prince, then there is a chance that he will die here. As the best fighting witches, few people can escape the nightingale, even if they are as strong as Hakala, they are not sure of victory.

Leaves had prepared for the worst. If she doesn't make it back alive, the book will take over as a mentor and lead the sisters on their way—no one knows where they're going or where they're going.

She walked slowly up the hill and approached the castle gates. The guards quickly noticed her, put their hands on the hilt of their swords, and shouted loudly, "This is the Prince's Palace, not the place where you should come, stand back!" he paused, and added, "If there is something important to announce, follow this road straight to the left and go to the town hall." There will be someone there to meet you. ”

Ye Zi took a deep breath and took off his hood. Unsurprisingly, she saw the two of them show surprised expressions at the same time, and without waiting for the other party to come to her senses, she said bluntly, "I'm a witch." ”

The moment these words were spoken, she was almost ready for the guards to draw their swords and face each other. But the two guards only glanced at each other, and there was no hatred that ordinary people could not hide when they heard of witches. One of them even asked with interest, "Witch, is there anything wrong with you?"

This reaction made Yezi's heartbeat suddenly increase, and she suppressed the excitement that was almost bursting out, and said in the calmest tone possible, "I want to see the nightingale." Or Anna and Nanawa can do it. ”

In the Nightingale's story, the witches are frequent visitors to the castle, and His Royal Highness does not imprison their freedom, and the guards guarding the castle turn a blind eye to their entry and exit at the signal of the Fourth Prince...... If what the nightingale said was true, it was impossible for the guards not to have heard of their names.

The guard who asked aloud patted his partner on the shoulder, "You're here watching her, I'll go and inform Your Highness." ”

Ye Zi watched him walk through the gate and quickly disappeared into the garden.

What awaits you, a welcome between sisters, a round-up by the guards, or a blade from the shadows?

She finds herself caught in a strange contradiction, clearly trying to believe the nightingale, but the closer she gets to the answer, the more she fears disappointment. Could it be that the nightingale is here with a makeover and no name at all?Could it be that Anna and Nanava were made up by her?or......

Time has never been so slow! Every heartbeat seems to span a hundred years, and for a long time, she quietly waits for her fate.

I don't know how long it was, or maybe just a moment, she heard the nightingale's voice—and in a trance, she thought she had heard it wrong.

A familiar figure emerged from behind the door and lunged at her, arriving almost at the same time as the voice. Then, she was embraced by a warm body.

"Leaf, welcome home!"

"Here's my spare clothes, you can put them on first," Nightingale rummaged through the cupboard, "and a coat and shoes...... Well, take a set of dressing gowns and bath towels as well. ”

"What's the hurry," Wendy smiled and shook her head, "Later, when Her Highness gets up, she will naturally be settled." ”

Looking at the busy nightingale, Yezi's eyes became hot again, and she sniffed, biting her lip, and wiping away the swirling tears. She was afraid that as soon as she opened her mouth, tears would burst out of her eyes uncontrollably.

It turned out that the nightingale really didn't lie to himself, and the prince who was willing to treat the witch well really existed.

"Why don't you take a hot bath first?" said Nightingale, placing the towel and clothes beside the leaves, "Your Highness is taking a nap, and when he wakes up, he will be glad to see you." By the way, have you found the Holy Mountain, and how are the other sisters?"

As soon as this sentence came out, Ye Zi's vision suddenly became blurred, she couldn't bear it anymore, hugged the nightingale, and released the pain that had been suppressed in her heart these days.

We cried until the nightingale's chest was completely soaked, and the leaves gradually calmed down.

She then recounted what happened to the sisters after the three of them left the Aid Society. When she spoke of the many sisters who had died in the wilderness, she felt the nightingale clench her hand involuntarily.

When Ye Zi finished speaking, Wendy's expression became extremely heavy, "I didn't expect Hakara to bring the Mutual Aid Society to a dead end. Of the forty-two sisters, only seven remained...... I also have a responsibility that cannot be shirked. If only I had stood firmly on the side of the nightingale at that time......"

"It's not your fault," Nightingale said sadly, "no one can predict the future, it's all about what to do next." She looked at the leaves, "You said there were six sisters who survived, where were they?"

"They are all waiting for my news at the entrance to the canyon, and we have made an appointment that if I fail to go back, the scroll will lead them out of here, or to the far south, or perhaps to the other side of the channel......"

"Then we must get them back quickly," said Nightingale at once, "I'll set off, Wendy, and I'll leave the leaves in your care." ”

"Wait, what if they don't believe you? Leaf has to go too, and call Lightning again, she should be practicing flying at the west end of town at this moment. You bring a few more horses, so that the sisters can walk a little less. Wendy admonished carefully.

"But His Royal Highness the Prince...... Aren't you still sleeping?" Ye Zi was stunned, "Don't you have to ask him?"

"Don't worry," comforted the nightingale softly, "if Your Highness finds out about this, I'm afraid it's too late to rejoice." ”
