The Witch's Taste

Chapter 166

Withdrew from the subconscious level, Chen Ziang still had a feeling of shock.

Xia Zili didn't notice anything, because she subconsciously didn't see her mother at all, nor heard the conversation between the two, so she asked puzzledly:

"We're back? So, did you find anything?"

Looking at her delicate and beautiful face, Chen Ziang opened his mouth to say something, but his voice seemed to be frozen.

"Hug, sorry." He finally stood up, "I have to find a quiet place, excuse me."

Leaving the living room and walking up the stairs to the second floor, Chen Ziang closed the bedroom door, and then sat by the bed, staring at the floor without saying a word.

Things shouldn't be like this...

In his original expectation, he would continue to get along with Suzuna like this until the day when the time is right, the relationship will be confirmed naturally, and then they will get married and have children... just like thousands of other couples, from acquaintance to acquaintance , from falling in love to staying together, living a simple, ordinary and beautiful life.

Of course, it doesn't matter if we can't get together, he will bless Suzuna to find someone better in the future, and then continue to accompany his sister, and the two depend on each other for life.

However, Xia Zili...

If there was no Yue Gong Suzuna, of course he would be very willing to become friends with Xia Zili.

Even after knowing that she is a witch, she will try to accept her, and will not let her suffer pain and torture as if she is in hell like Mie Nishikawa and Seiko Takahashi, and even completely despair of life and the world.

But they broke into his life at the same time, like two forked roads appearing in front of the train tracks at the same time—more extreme, an innocent girl is tied to each forked track.

With the switch of the train in his hand, he can decide which girl to save and walk with her in the future journey.

But at the cost of crushing another...

He can't.

In fact, if he considered it emotionally, he would definitely prefer Suzuna, whom he had known longer and had a closer relationship with, but he would never allow Xia Zili to fall into the witch's tragic self-destructive tendencies like Mie Nishikawa did.

……

Chen Ziang opened the drawer of the bedside table, and took out the old photo frame from the depths.

Above is a group photo of the parents, each holding a baby, smiling extremely happily at the camera.

In his previous life, he had never been in love, and his parents in this life had disappeared too early, so that he didn't even have anyone to consult in his life.

Ugh.

After trying to calm down his thoughts, Chen Ziang opened the door and went out.

Back in the living room, I saw Xia Zili sitting on the sofa blankly, like a little girl who did something wrong.

Such a nice girl...why do you like me?
Chen Ziang sighed in his heart, trying to show a gentle expression, sat next to her, and said:
"Zili, can you tell me how you obtained those abilities?"

"Oh, okay." Xia Zili didn't think much about it, so she told Chen Ziang about the matter in detail.

All in all, once I woke up from a nightmare, I saw my mother in the reflection of the window, saying that I wanted to make myself a hero, and then I gained the ability to summon bleat.

"Nightmare?" Chen Ziang asked again, "Can you explain in more detail? What is the specific content of the dream?"

"I can't remember anymore." Xia Zili crossed her arms, "I just remember roughly. It should be a very uncomfortable and painful thing. It took a long time until I woke up and got up."

Is it a painful thing...

The more Chen Ziang heard it, the more chilling he became. Although strictly speaking it was just a nightmare, it did match up with the witch's birth mechanism.

pain.

In the extreme pain and torment, there was an unknown mechanism connection with the gods of the abyss.

"Zi Li." Chen Ziang said patiently, "If you encounter any painful things in the future... No, it's not just pain, as long as you are unhappy, depressed, sad..."

"Tell me right away, okay?"

"Huh?" Xia Zili was at a loss.

She didn't know why Chen Ziang would suddenly mention this, but soon a sweet emotion emerged in her heart, she nodded seriously and said:
"Ok!"

"Okay." Chen Ziang heaved a sigh of relief.

If what Xia Zili's mother said is true, then Xia Zili should be "just a witch" at present, but she has not been tortured out of morbid, self-destructive extreme thoughts.

In fact, even for Mie Nishikawa and Seiko Takano, if someone could lend a helping hand to them in time when they were in deep pain, they might not necessarily degenerate into the later state of madness.

It was too late when Chen Ziang met them, and he was powerless to deal with their tragedies, but he would never allow Xia Zili to suffer the same fate...Even if he couldn't "love her", the minimum psychological enlightenment is still OK.

I will not let Xia Zili become a witch!This is a man's promise!
However, Chen Ziang was full of thoughts on how to save Xia Zili, but he didn't expect that the words just now would cause much damage to the half-elf girl who had never been in love.

Xia Zili lowered her head, and the blond hair on both sides of her cheeks naturally hung down, covering her blushing cheeks.

After agreeing without thinking, she fell into a certain chaotic mood, as if countless fireworks were blooming in her mind, constantly blowing up all kinds of messy thoughts and ideas.

Even if it is love at first sight, for a reserved half-elf girl, starting from friends is already the smoothest development plan.

But the current progress seems to be faster than expected..."If you have any unhappy things, remember to tell me as soon as possible", doesn't this mean "from now on, your troubles will be my troubles"? ?

Xia Zili felt a kind of helpless embarrassment, but more of it was overflowing with sweetness, so that she just sat there with her head down, unable to say a word for a long time.

It wasn't until a chat message notification popped up on the phone that she quickly unlocked it as if waking up from a dream, and saw Xia Qingyu send her a message:
[Sister]: Where is it?
[Sister]: I was at your house and didn't see you.

Xia Zili hurriedly replied:

"I'm out shopping, I'll be back later."

Then she stood up and hurriedly said to Chen Ziang:

"My sister is looking for me, I have to leave quickly."

"Oh." Chen Ziang responded subconsciously.

When Xia Zili changed her shoes and was about to go out, Chen Ziang again worriedly said:
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself at ordinary times, if there is anything that doesn't go your way...just tell me."

"Yeah." Xia Zili turned her head quickly, not letting him see the shy expression on her face.

She quickly put on her sunglasses, hat, and mask, and hurriedly pushed the door out. She was about to take a taxi and drive home when she suddenly realized another problem.

My sister is too smart to be fooled, so she will definitely be spotted when she returns home.

It's better to go shopping and ask my sister to come and look for it.

If you can see it with your own eyes, the credibility will of course be higher.

So she took another taxi and went straight to Sky Ginza.

After Xia Zili left, Chen Ziang collapsed backward on the sofa, without the energy to speak for a long time.

So far, he still can't figure out how to solve this dilemma.

It is impossible for Chen Ziang to ignore Ling Nai's sincerity towards him; but Xia Zili's problem is of great importance, and he cannot let it go.

Don't think that if you have been a security officer and have seen all kinds of tragic things, you can easily do nothing.

For example, when old friend Lu Yunfeng was on duty before, because he failed to save a couple from the accident in time, their only daughter became an orphan... That guy went to the orphanage to see the little girl every month, and gave back welfare The dean of the hospital is stuffing money!
If something went wrong with Xia Zili because of her own negligence, Chen Ziang's guilt and self-blame would never be less than Lu Yunfeng's.

Maybe try to maintain the status quo first.Speaking of the two ancient cities of Enrank and Zubasa, that is, Nightmare and Ghouls, will there be a solution to the witch problem?
