Witch Punk 2840

Chapter 13 New Home
drop--

Lilian put the crystal ball on the lock of the door to sense it, and with a soft sound, the door opened automatically.

Looking at this series of processes, Xia Ye felt a familiar sense of technology.In the world before crossing, most people were like this, using mobile phone sensing or fingerprint scanning to open the door.

But the various details around it exude a sense of classicism that is completely opposite to the sense of technology.

For example, the door in front of me is actually made of stone, with delicate carvings engraved on the surface, and the door lock is not a mechanical device, but a rune that looks like a witch's contract.

It's the same with what I just saw outside.

It is obviously a sci-fi high-rise building with hundreds of floors and huge advertising screens, but the high-rise buildings do not use glass exterior walls, but stone walls carved with gorgeous reliefs; as for those advertising screens, they are so large that it is unimaginable The crystal boards, the light of the runes is constantly flowing around their edges, driving the advertising screen to play repeatedly.

magic punk...

Xia Ye couldn't help flashing such a word in his heart.

No, strictly speaking, it is not magic that drives this world, but a witch contract.

So, should it be called "Witch Punk"?

"Master Traveling Witch, this, this is my home, please come in..."

Lilian's voice came, interrupting Xia Ye's thoughts. The girl's voice was mixed with tension and expectation. After all, in her opinion, she was inviting a powerful and mysterious "Master Traveling Witch" to her home.

"excuse me."

Xia Ye replied calmly, while stepping into Lilian's house.She raised her calves, took off the small black leather shoes on her feet one by one, and placed them by the door, then straightened up, took off the triangular headgear around her neck, and held it in her hands.

Although she didn't have a head, Lilian still felt that Xia Ye was looking at her, and she reacted very cleverly: "Ah—Master Traveling Witch, the head, uh...the hat can be hung there."

"Well, thank you."

Following the direction of Lilian's fingers, Xia Ye saw the hat rack standing by the wall. There was already a delicate black witch's hat hanging on the hat rack. It must have belonged to Lilian. After the headgear was hung side by side with it, a strong sense of contrast was immediately revealed.

Hmm... It seems that the next step is to buy a witch hat first, Xia Ye thought.

But the problem is, I don't have a head, even if I bought it, how should I wear it...

While Xia Ye hung up her "hat", Lilian had already taken off her shoes, and her little feet wrapped in translucent black silk stepped directly on the floor. There is no such thing as "slippers" in this world, because the floor of the room is always It's always spotless—whether it's Lilian's house or the closed room where Xia Ye was reborn, this must be the effect of some kind of witch's contract.

"Master Traveling Witch, do you need to take a bath first? Or eat something first? Or..."

"Eat you first?"

"what?!"

Probably because a certain stalk before the crossing was played too badly, Xia Ye subconsciously answered, but Lilian obviously didn't know this sentence, so the girl's reaction was not shyness or surprise, but frightened.

After all, Xia Ye said not long ago that although she is a traveling witch, she is not guaranteed to be a good traveling witch.

Coupled with this headless appearance, Lilian couldn't help wondering at that moment whether the other party wanted to eat a certain part of her body to perform what she called a "sacrifice".

"Cough... I mean, I'll ask you first. I'll ask you a question first." Looking at the petite girl who looked like a frightened bird, Xia Ye had a rare feeling of compassion, and didn't continue to scare her.

"Ah...that's it. Okay, of course there is no problem, please sit here!"

Lilian let Xia Ye sit on the sofa in the living room, and she dragged a chair over, and sat upright directly opposite Xia Ye, with her straight and slender legs close together, her hands neatly placed on her knees, Like a schoolboy waiting for the teacher to ask questions.

Looking at the other person's appearance, Xia Ye couldn't help smiling, but for her faceless, Lilian couldn't tell even if she smiled, she was always an elusive traveling witch.

She relaxed her body, leaned on the soft sofa, crossed one thigh on top of the other, her little feet wrapped in white silk swayed gently.

"Then, the first question..." Xia Ye raised her index finger and started to ask her own question.

……

"Very good, next is the last question, from now on, can you call me 'Sister Xia Ye'?"

"Eh?"

Lilian obviously didn't expect the last question to be this, and she didn't know how to answer it for a while.

"It's too awkward to always call me 'Master Traveling Witch'." Xia Ye explained, "Why don't you call me 'Sister Xia Ye' from now on, how about it?"

"Yes, of course!"

Lilian finally reacted and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.Although not long ago she protested against Xia Ye calling her "Sister Landlord", but...it's different now.

"Very good." Xia Ye shook her neck in satisfaction, "I will call you 'Lilian' from now on."

"That... Lu, sister Xia Ye, can I ask you a question too?" Lilian raised her hand cautiously, "Ah, of course it doesn't matter if you don't want to answer."

"You can ask me any questions, of course, whether I answer depends on the content of the question. In addition..."

Xia Ye patted the cushion beside her.

"Sit here, don't be so restrained. Speaking of which, this is your home, and I'm just a lodger. Then we can get along with each other casually. Don't worry, I'm not a monster, and I won't eat you. "

"Okay, okay..."

Lilian stood up from the chair and sat beside Xia Ye.However, her sitting posture was exactly the same as before, her legs were tightly closed together, her hands were half clenched on her knees, and she didn't feel relaxed at all.

"If you have any questions, just ask." Xia Ye said.

"Sister Xia Ye, I'm just a little curious. I thought you would ask me some difficult questions. Those questions just now... Many of them are common sense. Why do you ask these?" Lilian lowered her head and said cautiously. asked.

Because I'm a time traveler who lacks common sense—Xia Ye said in her heart, of course she couldn't answer Lilian like that, but she gave an excuse that she had already thought up.

Pointing to the broken neck, she said, "I remember that I told you before that I sacrificed my head to a great existence that cannot be named directly."

"Yes." Lilian nodded obediently.

"The reason for doing this is because before arriving at this city, I encountered a terrible enemy, and I had to temporarily gain stronger power through sacrifice to defeat him. But the price is that I lost Although my own head is not going to die, it has also forgotten a lot of things, including a lot of past memories and a lot of common sense."

"But... when you rented that room from me, although you were wearing a veil and couldn't see your face clearly, you did have a head."

Lilian thought for a while, and continued to ask questions. Although she was in awe of Xia Ye, she was not so easy to deceive.

"Because there is a delay in paying the sacrifice. After I defeated the enemy, I arrived in this city dragging my injured body. The reason why I rented that room from you was to find a place to hide temporarily. After living in the room Soon, the price of the sacrifice was paid, I lost my head, and because of this, I was unconscious in the room for three full months, so I failed to pay your rent in time."

"So that's it!" Lilian couldn't help sighing, thinking that she had accidentally helped a traveling witch who defeated an evil enemy, she couldn't help feeling secretly proud in her heart.

"Yes, that's right." Xia Ye nodded her neck solemnly, "Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you for providing me with that room three months ago."

"Huh? It's good that I can help you, I don't need to thank you..."

The thoughts in her heart were suddenly shattered, and Lilian was a little embarrassed, a slight blush appeared on her porcelain-like cheeks.

Phew, now I can finally justify myself.

Looking at the shy Lilian, Xia Ye thought silently in her heart.

To be able to make up such a set of stories in such a short period of time, I am indeed a genius of lying.
