A journey of seven souls escaping from the basement

"I think I can try the method you mentioned, Elena."

You see, I really agreed.

It's just that the time to think about it is slightly different from the one or two days that Elena expected.

"No problem." Elena sat on the bed in her room, looking up at Yabu who finally came to find her. While she felt a little lucky, she also felt a little relieved in her heart.

It's been about two months now.

Yabu communicates with the doctor almost every day, but the result is like this. He has never succeeded once. After all, everyone was almost dead after just one visit. The doctor is unlikely to let go no matter what he thinks.

...It would be better to say that Mr. Yabu was able to persist in this seemingly hopeless matter for two months before he chose to ask for help.

Even if we insist on it, Yabu can actually last longer. He will now choose to come to Elena for help. To a certain extent, Ellena inadvertently pushed him.

When Ellena first moved in, Yanbu asked about Ellena's past. It wasn't that he was curious about other people's experiences, he just saw that Ellena was a little young and wanted to see if he could send her to school. go to school.

However, this idea was later shelved, because after Elena learned that Yao Bu wanted to send her to school, she told Yao Bu that she had suffered from mineral disease in the past and was a completely disgusting refugee. There is no legal status for her to apply for admission.

Wow, this small house can accommodate three gangsters, and Ellena can be considered a den.

Although Elena later found a job at the old man's place and expressed that she did not need to go to school and she could learn the knowledge on her own, but the problem of not having an identity document was something that Yabu felt she still needed to help Elena solve.

But fortunately, the problem is not that big. After all, all he needs to do is ask Doralea for help. They are already familiar with it. Sometimes Yabu feels that it might be more difficult if he really calls Doralea his godfather. good.

Now the identity problem is solved.

I just feel a little guilty for giving Ya Bu a trim.

After all, Ifrit hasn't even helped yet, and he hasn't done anything yet, so he has asked for help twice.

And until recently, the ID document was indeed delivered again, and Ceria even thoughtfully marked some things that need to be paid attention to in the document for Elena's age, which made Yabu feel that he had taken advantage of others when he went to bed in the middle of the night, and his brain was spinning. Pushing him there, he quickly returned the help from others.

In addition, in the past two months, the doctor has shown no sign of letting him go. After he was rejected by the doctor again today, Yabu, who was constantly overwhelmed by the growing sense of self-blame, really couldn't hold it in the balcony. Bian showed off two pieces of chocolate, and then seemed to remember that he could choose to ask Elena for help.

"...or forget it."

Until now, Yabu was still a little undecided about whether to use the pendant without telling the doctor.

"Mr. Yabu actually doesn't need to worry. There is no problem at all. Even if Mr. Yabu accidentally gets hurt again, he can still come to me for help."

Seeing that Yao Bu wanted to think "a little bit" about how Elena could let Yabu run away again, she hurriedly seized this rare opportunity and began to trick Yao Bu to prevent other incidents from happening again.

"As long as the doctor doesn't find out, it's fine. The important thing is that Mr. Yabu doesn't appear to be covered in injuries like before, which may cause the doctor to see the problem."

Elena didn't say anything else to make Yao Bu think again and wait for him to make up his mind. She really didn't expect Yao Bu to care so much about the doctor's feelings.

If only I cared so much about being able to be mine...

"And why is Mr. Yaobu ​​afraid that something will go wrong? Is it possible that Mr. Yaobu ​​is not sure whether his abilities can protect his own safety?"

"That's not true. Although we cannot rule out the possibility of some special circumstances, we can definitely ensure safety."

"Isn't that no problem?"

In order to prevent the other party from retreating, Elena directly started to talk about her plans, so as to get Yabu to think according to her ideas.

"Mr. Yabu can definitely give it a try. If it doesn't work after you try it, just give up."

"......it is good."

-------------------------------------

*She longs for Yabu to need her more.

-------------------------------------

Chapter 62 You're not the only one with this problem

"You are really determined, Yabu. Do you want to tell me something today?"

"Ah, I decided not to think about using the pendant for the time being."

"Eh?"

Although it is indeed a good thing to give up using the pendant, and I should be happy with the result, but when I heard that Yabu, who had persisted for two months, suddenly gave up, it was like something I was used to had suddenly disappeared, and I could no longer do it. The doctor, who continued to listen to Yao Bu talking about some strange things, unexpectedly felt a little disappointed.

"Isn't that great? As long as it's not about the pendant, I can promise you." The doctor stood up from the chair, walked to Yabu and patted his shoulder. The doctor seemed to like patting him recently. Yao Bu, this time she seemed to be relieved that Yao Bu finally chose to give up, "Then do you want to chat with me for a while? Or do you have something else to do?"

"Well...Elena will go to the next city for a few days due to work reasons, but as a child, she may have some troubles alone and needs an adult to accompany her. She, so I might go with her in a few days.”

As if all the attention was taken away by what Yabu said, the doctor's movements of patting Yabu's shoulders continued mechanically without stopping.

"...how many days are you going to go?"

It wasn't until a moment later that a faint voice emerged from the doctor's mouth, making people feel that there was a chill from unknown origin in the well-lit room.

"Maybe two or three days...Doctor, do you have anything you want to eat? It's best if it can be stored. I can make it in advance and put it in the refrigerator for you. Of course, if you want to eat takeout, you can."

"..."

Why is the tapping feeling on my shoulder getting bigger and bigger...

-------------------------------------

9 month 27 day.

How can I put it, judging from this result, it was indeed an excellent achievement to free up personal space and time for Yabu to use the pendant.

But, this is the result...

It was slightly different from what Elena thought.

"Why, I'm accompanying you on a long trip, and you seem quite disappointed?" The doctor sat next to Elena with his arms folded, and turned to look at Elena who said nothing.

At this moment, the two of them were just like adults taking care of children, sitting on a bus heading to another city. They sat in the last row from the moment they got on the bus, and they were like complete strangers throughout the whole journey. Who to talk to.

Probably because reading in the car makes me get motion sick easily, Dr. Ganyan didn’t find it interesting, so he just started talking to Elena first.

"You need an adult to accompany you. I'm not just right. Look, adult." While saying this, the doctor, who had his hands on his chest, took out a hand and pointed it at himself, and raised his eyebrows at Elena, " If you make a lot of money, maybe I can help you with your work, can you do that?"

It’s still clear what kind of doctorate Ellena’s job is, that’s where the old man was before, but now he’s considered half a medical staff if rounded up.

It's not surprising that she would work somewhere, after all, Yabu and the old man were quite familiar with each other.

As for how they got to know each other...because the doctor would occasionally go to Herage to get some medicine, and Yabu would usually go with him. When he went there, he would always carry an insulated lunch box in his hand, which contained It was food or snacks he had given to the old man and his daughter.

At that time, he didn't have any purpose in sending things. Yabu simply thought that it wouldn't be troublesome anyway, and the old man was a very nice person, so he made the old man's things as well.

If you have to say what the purpose is... it's probably respecting the elderly, caring for the young and respecting doctors.

But after going back and forth like this, they became familiar with each other. It happened that Elena said she wanted to find a job, so Yabu introduced her to the old man.

Originally, the doctor was thinking about how to send her there, but he didn't expect that she would apply there herself. This really saved the doctor, who was very concerned about the future development of the child, a lot of worry.

But now it seems...as long as this little thing's mind doesn't leave Yabu, she won't worry no matter where she goes.

"There are many things that you can't do, Mr. Yabu." She didn't know if she was waiting for revenge. Ellena imitated the doctor's words and nodded to the doctor in a calm manner, "But if you say so, then that's it." .”

"Well, it seems that you don't really want to communicate with me." The doctor made a regretful expression, pursed his lips and shrugged helplessly, then took out his mobile phone and looked down, "Or, actually, you don't It’s not a disappointment, after all, the goal was achieved in terms of results.”

"Purpose?"

"Yabu used the pendant, right?"

The slight bumps of the bus made Elena feel a little dizzy, but the discomfort came out of her mouth as the doctor's words came out, and she felt as if she had been stabbed hard by something sharp, all of which All the discomfort began to recede as his attention shifted to that sentence.

"...If you don't agree, Mr. Yabu won't use it."

But Elena, who is good at controlling her expressions and already thinks she is very good at lying, did not show a trace of emotion. Instead, she seemed to not understand what the other party meant and thought that the other party was asking a normal question, and followed the other party's lead. Topics to talk to each other.

"Of course, I'm much more familiar with him than you are. Normally, if I don't agree, he won't use it." The doctor rarely showed a sincere smile when communicating with Ellena, as if he was his beloved. Something is praised by others. "To be honest, it's obviously his thing. Even the food, housing and all the expenses now can be said to be from Zhabu. Logically speaking, he should be able to do whatever he says, but now it seems like the other way around. , as if he is the subordinate."

"Mr. Yabu is a very 'quiet' person."

Being able not to make a sound means that the other party is not in any danger to Elena and is absolutely safe.This is not to say that the other party does not have the ability to hurt Elena, but that he has not had even a single thought that is harmful to Elena, as if he is not a person.

It's not that he has no desires, but he is almost without desires. He helps those he trusts and cares about, and it can even be said to be indulgent, but he does not blindly follow good and evil without distinguishing between good and evil. .

"How should I put it, simple kindness? But he is just kind-hearted, he is not stupid." The doctor pressed the power button on the phone in his hand to put the screen to sleep, and then put the phone back into his pocket, "Logically speaking, Since I talked to Yabu, he will definitely not secretly use the pendant alone, but will tell me clearly. But, if someone induces him, logically speaking, this may not be necessary. "

Ah... Thinking about it, it seems that the two times Yabu used the pendant behind his back were related to the child named Elena in front of him.

"Maybe you don't have to be so malicious towards me."

Even in this situation, it seemed that the other party already knew it completely, but Elena still maintained that she had no idea what the other party was talking about, and did not give any relevant answer as to whether Yabu secretly used the pendant.

"You may have misunderstood."

"what?"

The doctor turned to look out the window, stretched out her hand to open a gap, and after taking a few deep breaths of cool air to relieve her motion sickness, the corners of her mouth could not stop rising, and she turned to face Elena. Pointed at himself.

"What I just said, 'if someone induces him,' you may have misunderstood that sentence."

"Because, I'm not just talking about you."

-------------------------------------

*Reality is not a turn-based game. When one person is doing something, the other person will not just stand there doing nothing.

-------------------------------------

Chapter 63 Guilt is one of the most effective ways to control a person

The doctor had thought about a problem a long time ago. If I had to say exactly how long ago... it probably started quietly when he started to have some thoughts about Yabu in the hotel.

The question is, how to make Yabu become inseparable from him?

force?

This can only be used as a last resort. Some birds can never be caged. As long as the other person still has self-awareness, it is impossible for him to be willing to be locked in a cage like a toy.

rely?

Ah, that's not possible. People, like plants, always have to grow and make each other dependent. It's like placing obstacles around a plant from its buds, so that it can only follow the designed growth. It grows through the gaps and grows into what you want, until in the end, the entire plant has completely relied on your own design for it, and your life has been completely distorted and stereotyped, and you will not be able to live without those things that support you.

But Yabu has his own past. He already has a sound mind and has grown up. If he distorts it again, it is tantamount to twisting and breaking the other person's personality. This is naturally possible for the doctor. She did it, but was the person she got back then really still the person she hoped to get now.

hatred?

What the doctor wants is not to have a bad relationship with Yabu, but to make him feel disgusted. This goes against the doctor's idea.

Besides, how extreme would you have to do to be hated by him for the rest of his life?

Love?

This kind of thing has always been with the Doctor. It would be better to say that from the moment they met, there was never a moment when Yabu didn't give the Doctor love.

But his love is similar to the kind of love that the doctor wants, but completely different in origin.

What he gives is not love, just pure love. It is something that humans have evolved for who knows how long, and it is burned into the genes, so that even selfish genes can make changes and concessions to a certain extent. It is a kind of love that is stronger than love. Something more selfless.

To put it simply, you can say it is mother's love and father's love, or it can be said to be a heartfelt love for precious things, but it is the same as allotropes and is composed of the same emotions, but it has nothing to do with love. money relationship.

Although he didn't know why Yabu, who seemed to be about the same age as the doctor, would have such an almost desireless thing, the doctor could feel that the other person's feelings for him all along were this kind of love and care.

It's impossible to say you don't like this feeling of being cared about, especially when being cared for by Yabu makes you look like a useless person.

But how can I put it, for the doctor, this kind of care is like a dish that looks the same, but when you eat it, you find that it doesn’t taste that way at all.

But do you want to say it's delicious...ah, it's indeed delicious.

But this is not what the doctor wants to eat. If she continues like this, she may have some subtle feelings of betrayal.

Although it is a bit frustrating to say this, there is no 100% chance of making someone fall in love, so the doctor would not dare to try it randomly.

Forced confinement is not possible, control of dependence is not feasible, and love and hate may not be as practical as the first two. So making Yabu inseparable from his own method, judging from the doctor's observation of Yabu, it is simple and easy to implement. There seems to be only one.

——Guilt.

"What I said before, 'If someone induces him,' that sentence is not just about you."

Sometimes, it is normal to overlook some details because of something you care about.

For example, if the doctor really doesn't want Yabu to use the pendant, she can get the pendant from Yabu.

Jubu's character is that as long as the doctor asks for it, he will definitely give it to him.

"Why do you think I didn't just take Yabu's pendant away?"

The pendant is impossible to block. No matter how much the doctor blocks it, the future is already determined.

Since the other party chose to let Yabu help, it means that the other party at that time had already been helped by Yabu, and she was just filling in the starting point of the circle.
