A journey of seven souls escaping from the basement

"If I tell Yao Bu that you did not hesitate to save the child who got the ore disease, and even the initial encounter and rescue were deceptive in order to get close to you, what do you think he will think?"

"Stop talking, please..." Elena looked up at the doctor, her cloudy pupils pleading, as if she was asking him how he could let her go.

The best way now is actually to find Yabu.

But Elena didn't dare to ask whether she was valuable in the other person's heart. She didn't dare to compare herself with the doctor who was familiar with the other person.

Like the Doctor's judgment of Elena's broken interior, her distorted cognition makes her want to become useful to the cloth, and once she realizes that she has no value, she begins to think that she might being abandoned.

Even if she knew, given Yao Bu's character, even if the doctor told Yao Bu these things, even if she would be of no use, there would probably be no problem.

But that was "probably", and even if there was only a slight possibility of being denied, Elena didn't dare to try it.

They are different.

Although both the doctor and Ellena are troubled by their pasts, because of Zub's company, she just doesn't know how to accept her unclear past, but she has never been afraid.

But judging from the fact that maybe nine out of ten words Ellena said just to be with Yabu were false, she was disgusted and afraid and kept running away from her past.

And now, that past seems to be catching up with her.

"However, there is no room for negotiation between us." The doctor's originally cold voice faded away in an instant, as if it were the devil guiding people's inner corruption, lowering his head and speaking words that were hard to refuse, "Do you remember what I said before? I can let you stay with Yabu."

After the big stick has been beaten, there is no point in continuing to push. If you push someone too hard, they might bite you back. Now it's time to give someone a break.

"Do you just...want that pattern that much?" Ellena naturally knew that she was the only thing that was valuable to the doctor, but she didn't expect that in order to get this thing, the doctor would use coercion like this. Own.

"Who would refuse if you have more backup options? How about it? Have you thought about it clearly?"

"...If I tell you, even if I am no longer useful, can I still stay with Yabu?"

"Ha..." As if he heard something funny, the doctor turned his face away and laughed softly, then looked at Elena as if he were looking at something new and said, "You think Do you still have a choice? Do you want to leave him? "

"..."

leave?

Just thinking about this possibility, thinking about the world without Zhebu, made Elena's whole body start to tremble uncontrollably.

Ellena, who is somewhat similar to the Doctor in nature, can understand that handing the pattern to the person in front of her is absolutely wrong, even far worse than what she had done before and the deceptions combined.

But... leaving?

He is the only place in his life where he can feel at ease. If he leaves...

"As long as I can stay with Mr. Yabu..." Elena's voice lost any aura, and she didn't know if it was because of the darkness in the room. Her eyes were empty and dark, as if she had lost her mind. Soul-like.

If you leave, you might as well die...

"I'll tell you what the pattern is."

"Then, let's draw it." As if he was sure that this would be the result, the doctor took out a notebook and pen from his pocket and handed it to Elena.

Looking at the blank piece of paper, Elena picked up the pen and placed the pen tip on it tremblingly, but she didn't move for a long time as if it was stuck. She just watched the ink flowing from the pen tip slowly soaking into the paper. , forming a black dot on the white paper.

Want to draw it?

It's still too late to regret now. As long as you don't tell the other person the pattern, maybe there is still a chance to save everything, maybe...

Just like before death, the brain suddenly gained the last glimmer of clarity, and Elena's heart struggled desperately to stop herself.

But the doctor is still there, and she won't leave any chance for Elena to recover.

She saw a trace of struggle in Elena's heart that was close to the edge of the cliff. She didn't leave any room for her, and gave her one last push gently with words.

"This is your only value, but it doesn't mean that you are the only one who has this value. As long as Yabu has helped anyone, I can go to them and ask them about this pattern."

"Maybe just like you suddenly came here, there might be another person next moment? Now you can exchange it with me for the possibility of staying, because now you are the only one who has this value, but after that, But that’s not necessarily the case.”

"..." Elena's hands no longer trembled. She seemed to be really still there. Until the dead silence lasted for a moment, her hands began to draw slowly on the notebook mechanically. stand up.

never mind......

Telling the other party the pattern is wrong.

But it doesn't matter...

Anyway, I have said so much and made so many mistakes.

As long as I can stay with Yao Bu, everything is fine, right or wrong, or making the same mistake again and again.

It doesn't matter anymore...

"A star? It's such a childlike pattern..." After looking at the pattern drawn in the notebook, the doctor put the notebook into his pocket, followed by Elena's eyes.

Afterwards, he walked out of Elena's room without any nostalgia and politely closed the door.

There was only a broken doll curled up on his bed in the room. Only the occasional trembling as if frightened could make people feel that the doll was actually a living thing.

"sorry Sorry......"

Chapter 1: Surprise exam, who is the ugliest substitute?

Today is February 10.

It sounds like a perfect holiday for a holiday, and even better, there is no such thing as a holiday in another world.

Although Yabu actually doesn’t have much work, if I have to say...nanny?

"...came back to life." Yabu opened his sore eyes, raised his body slightly and leaned against the head of the bed, breathing in the cold air.

Compared with the state yesterday when my brain felt sticky, headache and tired, my brain after enough rest is like a washed rag, light and clean.

He slowly turned his head and looked at the electronic watch hanging on the wall. It was not long after eight o'clock, which was a little later than the usual time when he got up.

Seeing this, Yabu did not continue to lie on the bed and go back to sleep. When he got up, he planned in his mind what to do next.

...First of all, I probably went to the dining table to get a glass of water to drink. During the break, Yabu felt thirsty several times, but he was too tired to move, so he fell asleep without being thirsty. I fell asleep again.

In order to avoid suspicion, Yabu always wore blue pajamas, so he didn't need to spend time changing clothes after getting up. Driven by his dry throat, he opened the door of his room and wandered in sleepily. At the dining table, he picked up the glass jug on the table and poured water into his mug with yellow flowers printed on it.

In order to ensure that people at home would have something cold to drink when they were thirsty, Yabu bought a glass jug with a mouth two ounces wide and a foot high, placed it on the dining table and occasionally poured boiling water into it to keep it cold.

"call......"

...Now, what should we do next?

It was as if the brain had entered energy-saving mode and turned all the things to be done into circular tasks. After completing the first task of drinking water, Yabu, who was holding a mug to replenish water, began to think about the next step. Something to do.

...Next, it’s time to make breakfast for the doctor and Elena.

You can eat a little less for breakfast and save something rich for lunch. After all, the doctor and Elena don't seem to be going out today.

So... fry some soft-boiled eggs and ham, and toast the bread.

Oh yes, warm up the breasts again, Elena is still growing at this age, Doctor... At Doctor's age, she is probably also growing, right...

But let’s not talk about whether he will grow physically or not. The doctor is so thin, so it is always right to eat more good things.

With such a plan, Yabu put down the mug he was holding to his mouth and looked down at the fried eggs, ham, bread and hot milk on the dining table.

Well, it's probably something like this.

......

......

"Huh?" Yabu's half-closed eyes revealed a hint of confusion.

He looked down at the mug in his hand, then glanced forward at the breakfast that had been prepared on the table. His movements were as stiff as a machine, and he tried to repeat the same action before lifting the mug and taking another sip. water.

Well, no other food appeared on the table as expected.

That......

"...King Crimson?" Yabu jokingly shouted into the air a substitute for a person with a long head.

What happened? The Red King deleted the time?

The breakfast that was exactly the same as Yabu's idea was already prepared on the table. Judging from the steaming milk, it seemed that it had just been prepared not long ago.

Yabu, who had already planned what to do next, looked at the already prepared breakfast on the table. Because his scheduled task was suddenly completed, he fell into confusion and didn't know what he should do.

Who has prepared breakfast?

First exclude Yabu himself.

In the words of the Doctor...

The ones on the table are not instant noodles, so that can be ruled out.

Ah, it's really hard to guess. Two of the three people have been eliminated. Is there any possibility of which one is the remaining one?

Well, the result is no suspense at all...

"Good morning, Mr. Yabu."

That leaves Elena.

As a childish but clean greeting sounded from behind Yabu, he felt someone silently appear behind him, wrapping his arms around his waist and hugging him.

"Well..." Yabu looked down at Elena's white arms hugging him. The sudden touch of being hugged made him stunned for a moment, "Morning, Elena?"

"...Is what I'm doing okay?"

"That's pretty good. Thank you, Elena."

Although it is just fried eggs and ham, it is not difficult in itself, but at least your child is willing to get up early to make breakfast for you. This behavior itself is worth thanking.

"Then let me do all this from now on, okay?"

In this case, at least... I can be of some use.

"Well...this kind of thing is actually left to me. Elena doesn't actually have to do anything here. It's not that Ellena doesn't do well, it's just that Ellena is still young. Pay attention to rest." Yabu seemed to have misunderstood something, and his voice comforted Elena with a hint of dullness as if she had just woken up.

"..."

Really... You can still do this kind of thing even if you don't have yourself, Mr. Yabu, it doesn't matter if you have yourself or not.

"What's wrong, Elena?" Yao Bu asked, somewhat at a loss.

Seeing that the other party didn't reply and just hugged her hard, Yabu, who couldn't turn around, had to turn his head over his shoulder and try to look behind him, but he could only barely see a glimpse of Elena's short black hair.

"It's nothing, I just want to hug Mr. Yabu suddenly." Elena buried her head on Yabu's back, and the arms she held never let go. She even pressed harder, which made Yabu start to feel a little strangled. Panic.

But this didn't last long. Elena let go of Yabu, walked slowly to Yabu, helped Yabu open the chair, and motioned for Yabu to sit down and have breakfast.

Of course, Yao Bu had no reason to refuse Elena's kindness. He sat down according to the other person's wishes and asked curiously: "Why does Elena want to make breakfast today?"

"...Isn't it possible?" Elena didn't answer why. Instead, as if she thought she had done something wrong, she asked Yabu, "I did it...it's not good." ?"

"Not really..."

"Then, leave everything to me from now on. Let me do something. Mr. Yabu, please have a good meal..."

Then, she turned her face to the side, not letting Yao Bu see her face and walking towards her room, as if she was not going to say anything to Yao Bu to give him a chance to refute.

"..."

Only Yabu himself was left sitting on the empty dining table, looking in the direction of Elena's room in confusion, constantly thinking about whether he had said something wrong just now.

*Alena’s attitude seems to have become tougher.

Chapter 1 Long live me

When he was young, he discovered that he seemed to have some special abilities.

Of course, just guessing.

He couldn't explain how to explain this ability, and he wasn't even sure whether this thing really existed. He just had a vague feeling that there might be such a thing.

How to describe it...a very vague feeling, it seems a little red?effort?Or something else?Ah, this is nothing.

He didn't even know what he was talking about.
