Valkyrie Growth Observation Diary

Chapter 86 Hug
The boy has lived in the small village of Nightmare since he could remember, and he doesn't know how many years he has been in that forest.

The village is very quiet, except for the chirping of insects and birds, there are almost no other sounds.Those people hardly spoke, and no one spoke to him.Apart from providing meager food, there was no communication between them.

He always found it strange that even though they didn't get along day and night, after so many years, he could never remember any of them's faces.

Accompanying him is nothing but nightmares day after day.

One, though, was a little different, and that was a long-haired one.He couldn't remember the other person's face, but he knew that other people in the village respected her very much.

So, he followed suit.

He didn't understand it, but he did it well.

Recently, other people should have come to the village, but he failed to meet them, but got a dagger.

He likes this sharp object.

It's the only difference in a life of eating, sleeping, and having nightmares... an endless loop of sameness.

Yesterday, three more people came to the village, who he could remember their faces.

After getting the order to stop them from leaving, he slit the girl's throat without hesitation.

Death means not moving, that is... not being able to leave.

That's how he understood it.

……

The boy woke up next to the girl's hospital bed, his body felt stiff and in pain.But even so, it was still the most peaceful sleep of his life.

A night without dreams.

The boy moved his arms that were a little numb from sleep, and suddenly saw the girl on the bed sitting up.He leaned back a little at a loss, looked around in a panic, and found that no one was there, and then looked at the girl——

Her face was calm, she said nothing, her eyes were neither rigid nor empty.

If the doctor came to review or someone came to visit, she was very cooperative, but she never spoke.

She always stared wide-eyed, observing every visitor with a curious look.During this process, the boy was also looking at her, and the occasional eye contact failed to trigger any plot dialogue.

Lin Zuzu was thinking.

Or rather, learn...

Learn to live.

***
The 10th team is worthy of being the third-ranked team, and it can be said that it has a big family and a big business.For example, the private hospital belonging to the 10th team that houses Lin Zuzu and Li Qing exists as an annex building next to the magnificent office building.

Zheng Mu, the captain of team 10, is a typical second-generation rich and third-generation official. If there is anything lacking in the team, he can just report to his superiors. Compared with Yi Tingxie before, this style is nothing but worse.

Yi Tingxie and Li Qin approached Zheng Mu for action review.Hearing that both Lin Zuzu and Li Qing were awake, he decided to visit his team members and give his good brothers a chance to work hard.

After all, Li Qing is a C-rank warrior, and his injuries are not too serious. Apart from some paleness, he doesn't seem to be seriously injured.

It's a girl...

He folded his arms in front of his chest and stood at the door watching her calm and silent appearance. He didn't know what to say and was turning around to leave when her clear voice came from behind him.

"Master, I want to eat an apple."

When he turned his head, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, because the girl smiled, a smile that was completely different from the previous one that was alienated, restrained, polite or crazy.

The smile between Lin Zuzu's eyebrows was as bright as a summer flower, and the vitality gushing out with the smile almost burned his eyes.

For a moment, he wanted to turn around and escape from this sincere warmth.

However, the sparkle in her eyes attracted him, and held him in place like a firefly chased by moths.

After all, unlike the frivolous burning flame, such a warm and sincere emotion belongs to him only here and now.

This is not a relationship with a clear meaning, not a specific classification such as love, friendship, and family affection——

That was the emotion she had suppressed for six years.

After the shackles and shackles were removed, such a huge energy erupted violently, ushering in a new life that would destroy the world.

So, Yi Ting walked over in a strange manner, sanitized his hands with disposable alcohol, and peeled an apple for her like the first time.

During this process, Lin Zuzu was not idle.

"What's your name?"

The boy shook his head.

"I heard from the patriarch that the pronunciation of your name is qi, shall we choose a word from this pronunciation?" She seemed to have just recovered her tongue, and began to talk more.

The boy nodded ignorantly.

"Then what about the surname?" Lin Zuzu was thoughtful, and suddenly remembered what the patriarch had said about the name tag, so he turned to Yi Tingxie, "During the search for evidence, did you find anything in the patriarch's bedside cabinet that seemed to prove his identity?" identity."

The apple skin was thin but not broken, and a whole piece fell into the trash can. Yi Tingxie remained silent until he cut the apple into small pieces in the palm of his hand, placed them on a plate, and placed them on the small table in front of her. He whispered, "Let's talk in the team."

So, the clever girl greeted the boy and said, "Eat the apple."

She stuck an apple with a toothpick and handed it to the boy.

The boy seemed a bit at a loss. He had eaten this thing, but he hadn't used it in this way.He only opened his mouth to swallow a piece under the girl's gesture.

Yi Tingxie looked at the smiling girl, but her eyes softened unconsciously.

"Captain, Team Zheng still has something to discuss with you." Li Qing walked over from the outside, and when he saw the boy, he immediately felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

The scene of the boy stabbing the girl is still vivid in my mind, why did I let this dangerous person out?

"It's okay, this kid has been banned at the B level, once he has the idea of ​​hurting others, his whole body will be paralyzed." Yi Tingxie explained after seeing his expression.

He put down the fruit knife, wiped his hands and got up: "The main thing is that I can't keep this kid, as soon as he leaves...Lin Zuzu will struggle like crazy. Hearing Zheng Mu said that he is a good seedling, he is not willing to use tranquilizers."

As he spoke, he glanced at the girl, motioned her to take a good rest, and left with Li Qing.

"Oh yes, your mother was killed by me."

Lin Zuzu thought of the patriarch. Although it was adopted, it is also like a mother to the boy.

She picked up the fruit knife left by Yi Tingxie and handed it to the boy, showing a puzzled expression on the other side.

"If you want to kill me for revenge, now or in the future, you can do it to your neck like the first time you saw me."

She gently held the boy's little hand, put the knife into her palm, and scratched her neck with her fingers. Although it was clean and new, the scar the boy left on her had already healed.

"However, it's not that I won't resist, because I also have people who want to kill, so it's good if you can act later."

The boy tilted his head to look at the knife in his hand, he liked sharp things very much, and then stared at the girl.

Lin Zuzu thought he was hesitating and said, "In short, I will bear all your hatred."

Shaking his head, the boy tried to speak for the first time, uttering a broken phrase:
"It's not... Mom."

From what Lin Zuzu heard, it meant that he would not kill her.

That's great.She thought and pushed the apple towards him again.

The boy bravely climbed onto the hospital bed and stretched out his hand to her, still holding the fruit knife tightly in his hand.

Do you still want to stab me?
This time it was the girl's turn to be puzzled, but she still slowly leaned over, and the boy threw himself into her arms.

oops.The girl was startled, but she didn't resist, but she maximized her perception. Once the boy was about to send the blade to her back, she would have enough reaction time to resolve the crisis.

But, nothing happened.

The boy just hugged her, and he suddenly understood the last words that the respected person left him. Perhaps this is also the wish that the patriarch, who was imprisoned by various responsibilities, most wanted to achieve in his life.

——To find the place I most want to stay, there must be... there will be such warmth.

So……

Right here, right now.

The girl's embrace was the warmest place he had ever felt in his life.

Hugging is a higher satisfaction than sex.
