Even if you add her age in her previous life, it's still not enough for the elves.

The window that Rachel occupied had been remodeled, and it is now a semi-open structure. They followed Pani, took off their shoes and walked in.

"There's no need to act lightly like this, and she can't hear you." Pani said to them seeing their furtive looks.

Stepping on the soft carpet, they looked around at the furnishings here, bypassing the silver hair scattered on the carpet, and came to the scholar.

There was a faint smile on Rachel's face, her eyes stayed on the street outside the window, her expression was very natural.Eve and Erinde waved to her and greeted her with some embarrassment.

"Don't bother, she seems to be sleeping." Pani leaned closer to Rachel's face, listening to her breathing, "The breathing sound of her sleeping is different from when she is awake."

"Is she still sleeping with her eyes open?" Eve asked.

"Her eyelids don't move, but the eyeballs are covered with a film, which can moisturize and protect, and can also adjust the light. Coupled with the effect of some tattoos, it becomes what it is now."

"Is it really possible to sleep like this?"

"It's good to get used to it, and...you can fall asleep naturally after being sleepy for a long time."

Since Rachel was sleeping, they decided not to disturb her for the time being, so they chatted aside-the topic basically revolved around how to care for a person who cannot move.

"Although Raqiel is still conscious, in terms of nursing, she may be similar to a patient who is paralyzed in bed." Pani explained to them, "So, this protective layer attached to the skin is very important. It has many uses—keep dry, sterilize and disinfect, relieve allergies, itching, and prevent bump damage. At the same time, it can also apply weak electric currents throughout the user's body, preventing muscle relaxation and degeneration to a certain extent. "

"So amazing?" Erinde squatted down and carefully observed Rachel's fingers, "Wouldn't it be uncomfortable if this thing covered the skin?"

"Maybe, some people like it, some people don't like it, it's mainly a matter of habit." Pani said, "Here, some people will wear this thing as a lining."

It suddenly occurred to Eve that Parnas' material science research might have already reached its pinnacle, but they always used these things in some impractical places—from a human point of view.

Raqiel has a pleasant smell, which reminds her of some sweet fruits, maybe it is the smell of this layer of artificial skin—it seems that there is no trace of human smell on this scholar.

The three talked for a while, and then Eve's attention was attracted by some small objects behind them.

"By the way, do you have anything that can be given as a gift here—not referring to things here, but... specialties and the like." Eve recalled that she had told Nanfen in her letter that she wanted to bring some souvenirs back.

"There are a lot of specialties, for example, fruit wine, honey, cloth, etc., but they may not be easy to carry. Do you have storage?"

Eve shook her head.

So Pani asked her again: "Who do you want to give it to?"

"Oh, just a few female friends." She replied.

"I see, wait for me for a while, I have an idea." Pani said and left the cupboard.She didn't leave the supply store, but just took some things from the store manager, Finrica, so she came back soon.When she came back, she had some colorful "small rolls" in her hand.

Pani opened one of them, and Eve recognized what it was at a glance—silk stockings...or more accurately, it was probably a kind of thin pantyhose.

In fact, this kind of thing has just begun to become popular in the eastern city today, and, with the current level of human technology, it is still impossible to manufacture thin and elastic stockings—if you want to wear them snugly, you may need to match garters or hosiery rings.The socks that Pani brought were not only light, but even from top to bottom, there was no trace of stitches.

After seeing this, Eve's expression became a little unnatural.

"Do you know what this is?" Pani asked them.

Eve and Erinde looked at each other, and she saw Erinde shaking her head, so she shook her head too.

"I don't know how to describe this thing in Franto. In short, it's a kind of sock that covers the whole leg." Pani explained to them.

"What's the use of wearing such a thin thing?" Erinde asked.

"It can make your legs look more beautiful... Isn't that enough?" Pani winked at them, "As for the effect...Who will try it?"

"Let Erinde come." Eve decisively gave the opportunity to her good friend.

Pani brought a stool, and Erinde sat on it, with her back to the window and pulled down her pants.The knickerbockers obviously wouldn't go through the socks, so she took off the lining again.Eve watched her movements, hesitated to speak, but finally said nothing.

Under Pani's guidance, Erinde finally put the socks on properly. She stood up, walked around the window twice, and then sighed: "Hey, it feels so strange, but it seems to be quite comfortable..."

"Don't catch a cold, put on your pants first." In order to prevent her from getting naked, Eve interrupted her speech and helped her put on her bloomers.

This is really a strange way of dressing, Eve thought.

"How would you like this as a gift?" Pani asked her.

"It will probably be very suitable, I guess they will like it." Eve replied.Seeing Aileende's reaction at this time, she felt confident.

"What about you, do you like it?"

"I don't mind, I prefer to dress looser."

After a while, Pani said that Raqiel had woken up—she almost couldn't wait to lay hands on this defenseless scholar.

"What... are you doing?" Eve asked her.

"Not doing anything, just expressing intimacy." Pani said, "If possible, I really want to move her to my own home and hug her every day when I sleep... But to be honest, I didn't have a deep friendship with her in the library. It was only after I came here that I became close to her. Of course, it was one-sided. Don't always look at me, you can try too? Her belly is very easy to touch."

Rachel made a choice and gave up her former identity, even her rights and dignity as a human being.This may also mean that she no longer cares about other people's offenses and insults-she has been out of this social game.

Eve held up the scholar's hand, acting cautiously.She found that Rachel's hand was even smaller than her own, and because it was covered with a soft membrane, it always had a strange touch. Her fingers were as smooth as silk, but at this moment they were a little cold, Yi Fu pinched her weak wrist again, and only then felt a slight pulse beating.

"This hand really doesn't look like a living person's hand." Eve sighed.

Rachel's fingers were processed, part of her nail bed had been removed, and she lost the ability to regenerate, in order to stick a softer nail patch on the outside of the pia mater for easy care—she no longer uses her hands and feet, so she doesn't care about their existence.

Pani has been observing Eve, and when their eyes met, she said, "Eve, do you know what I thought when I saw you for the first time?"

Eve shook her head, she wondered why the other party brought up this matter at this time.

"I was thinking that this foreigner is not only very beautiful, but also has a personality similar to a scholar I admire."

"Like who? Is this Rachel?"

Pani nodded, "Otherwise, I wouldn't mention her in front of you, after all, this incident is really a bit shocking to outsiders...I'm sorry just now, Erinde, I didn't intend to scare you on purpose."

"I'm fine. I don't know much, so I'll be surprised when I hear anything." Erinde smiled at her.

After all, there is Eve as an example—Elinde knows that she is far from being as good as this companion around her, so she should at least have some "self-knowledge".In fact, judging from her current age, this standard seems to be set too high, but this is not necessarily bad. Perhaps it is because of Eve's appearance that she is forced to start thinking about what kind of person she should be.

"I always have a strange feeling, that is... very kind, as if we have known each other for a long time. In Parnas, intuition is a very spiritual thing. Some people say that it is because of the existence of the tree of deep space. The 'tree' can strengthen our perception and project a vague message into our minds, but on the other hand, we are unaware of this effect. Fochte always said that this is impossible, it is pseudoscience, but I still believe it—especially when you said about Rachel's 'giving up freedom' When talking, I feel as if I have found the right way, because I always feel...you may be the same kind of people, and you may understand her better than us—understand Rachel's feelings."

"I don't really understand her. I just think that geniuses always have different ideas, and they won't become crazy for no reason." Eve didn't know what Panny meant when she said these words to herself, so she asked, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

"Yes." Pani suddenly laughed, "Since you said that, I'm not being polite."

Afterwards, she called the store owner, Fenlica, and the two took some measurements for Eve, and then found some clothes—obviously, the two had some discussions just now.

"What are you going to do?" Eve looked at the two with a vigilance like a small animal in her eyes.

"What are you doing? You look so cute, so of course I want to keep you here and become a doll like her..." Pani's tone was so serious, "Tell me, do you have any last words?"

"Then—make me look better?"

For the sake of those socks, Eve was very cooperative. After all, there will be more requests from her later.

"Well said, let's go and change." Pani rolled up the clothes and pushed her to the changing room on the other side.

After closing the door, Eve, who was alone, stared blankly holding a stack of laundry.

Facing the changing mirror in the cubicle, the girl in the mirror slowly suppressed her smile, and turned back into that quiet and peaceful girl.At this moment, she is looking at herself through the mirror - this is a face, it shows the impeccable moment, whether it is sad, angry, frustrated, or deliberately funny, it will always be like that Perfect and strange... It's hard to imagine whether there will be a day when it will leave some marks due to years or injuries.

"Hurry up." Pani didn't leave, she was standing outside the door.

Then, the girl moved, and began to change clothes in a rustle.

From the very beginning, she noticed that the clothes that Panicai gave herself were similar to the ones worn by Rachel, but the colors were a little different.

How was Rachel dressed?Her dress is not revealing—the long dress and skirt cover a large area of ​​skin, at most only revealing the shoulders, waist and calves, and embellished with some fancy ribbons, the overall appearance of this dress is Even a little childish.It can be said this way - her dress well highlights the beauty of the female body, as well as the unique aesthetic taste in Forest City culture.In other words, that is—the details of his clothing contain ambiguous and implicit hints and provocations everywhere, but some elements may only be experienced by the elves living here.

Generally speaking, these are acceptable.

After Eve returned to the window, she found that there was another chair here—exactly the same as the one under Rachel.

"Please sit down." Pani said with a smile.

Sitting on this inconspicuous chair, a light damping feeling spread from all parts of the body, bearing the weight of the body evenly. The gravity of Parnass was much smaller than that of the outside world. Eve half-lyed in the chair, feeling as if she had returned to the gravity-free environment when she was inside the library.

Fenlica took a strangely shaped brush and lightly stroked her slender nails, covering them with a gradient of pink.

Eve instinctively wanted to refuse, but she didn't know the other party well, and she couldn't speak the language—forget it, it was just a trivial matter anyway, so she simply let her do it.

Fingers followed toes, and after doing all this, Pani knelt down and put on her shoes, and touched her smooth instep along the way.

Eve looked at the shoes on her feet—they were a pair of lightweight wedge-heeled shoes with a narrow toe edge to the extent that they could only cover the toes.Pani adjusted the height of the heels so that she could stretch her ankles as much as possible, revealing her fat-white insteps—the elves seem to have a special preference for the "insteps".

"And then? Why am I just sitting here?" Seeing that the three of them were staring at her, she felt a little uncomfortable.

"That's it, you sit here and feel it." Pani said, "We will prepare the 'specialty' you want--first ask, how many people do you want to give?"

So Eve thought about it—first Nanfen and Minxi, then Xilinya, Elvira and Mara... Where is Akanlu?Would she like something like this?

"Forget it, don't think about it, I'll get some more." After finishing speaking, Pani and the shopkeeper Fenlica left here. Not only that, they also took Erinde away.

The footsteps of the three gradually faded away, and they left the supply store. Eve looked behind her head, only to hear laughter from outside the window—she turned her head and saw three women standing on the street, greeting herself through a layer of glass.

They left, and there were only her and Raqiel left here, and the cabinet was extremely quiet.

Eve leaned back in her chair and quietly watched the female scholar beside her.

For a living person, the soul and the body were originally inseparable - but Rachel used such a method to give the body to others and keep the soul for herself.

Is she awake?What is she thinking?Eve was very curious about this.She even thought that she might be able to use the preacher's copper coin to spy on the other person's thoughts-but she didn't have the guts to do it when she wanted to think about it. After all, the boundary of a person's thinking is always much larger than the body that wraps it, and the thought itself is extremely complicated. It is like the sea, the abyss, and the black hole.Although, empathizing with Rachel doesn't mean you want to be her, but there is still such a risk.

Before she knew it, she took a nap and then had another dream.

She dreamed that she was standing in a pool of shallow water, facing a towering giant tree with two branches—or maybe they were two trees—the two branches intertwined to form a Straight and graceful spirals, they merge into one, branching and spreading leaves at the top, and the spoon-shaped leaves flap in the wind, making a crisp sound.

Under the tree, a woman was standing there. She seemed to sense Eve's gaze, so she turned around.

There was inquiry in their eyes, so they all walked towards each other.

"Where is this?" Eve asked her.

The woman didn't speak, she was just laughing.This person has long, smooth white hair, but intuitively speaking, she doesn't look like a witch, because her eyebrows and eyelashes are also as white as ice and snow.

"Excuse me... who are you?" Eve asked again.

The other party still didn't answer - she kept smiling and shook her head at her.

Eve realized that the other party might not understand what she was saying, so she stretched out her hand, intending to touch the copper coin in the book cover, but it was in vain.

She looked at her empty waist in surprise, and then realized that she was dreaming, so the dream woke up.

Soon, the other three left and returned.

"Sitting here for so long, do you feel anything?" Pani put down the small box in her hand.

"No... just now I fell asleep and had another dream. How long have you been there?" Eve stretched.

"About two hours," Erinde said.Eve noticed that after returning, the socks on her legs had changed to another style.

"I didn't expect that I've slept for so long, and it's getting late." Eve sat up and took off her shoes.

Pani showed her the small box she had brought back—there were hundreds of neatly stacked sock rolls in it.

"Thank you, but... I don't need so much." Eve said.

"Elinde also wants some, so you can take them back and divide them up." Pani said, "Although these things are very durable, they are still consumables, so you can't have too much."

"In that case—how much should I pay you? Do you...do you accept gold or Fengluwei?" When she said this, Eve felt a little guilty, because it was obviously just a polite remark, but she had to say it.

"No need, these are just some of Fenlica's inventory, they are not worth much, and they are all given to you." Pani replied.

So, Eve accepted these "special products" from the elf land in this way.

"Eve, may I ask you a question—" Afterwards, Pani leaned into her ear and asked her in a low voice, "Do you have any sexual experience?"

"This... how should I put it... not... not yet." She answered a little stutteringly.On the one hand, Eve doesn't know what she's doing with this question, and on the other hand--Isn't it a bit embarrassing to say no now that she talked so much with the other party before?

"Okay, then I'll give you this." Pani had two small boxes in her hand, and she gave one of them to Eve.

The box contains a soft and tiny pink bunny toy.

"You know what this thing is," she said. "It's powered by Fengluwei, so it lasts a long time, and the switch is on the tail."

"I... I can't use this thing."

"Take it, you'll need it sooner or later, don't treat yourself badly... You know, if you don't need it, then I won't need it, but I've brought it now."

Pani's persuasion made her a little embarrassed, but she finally accepted this little gift under some unexpected circumstances.

After saying goodbye to Finrica and Rachel, Pani sent them back.Probably because they were about to part, the three of them were a little silent.Eve was carrying the box, and habitually fell into reverie, wondering what she was thinking.After recovering, she noticed the socks on Erinde's legs.

"Are you going to wear it all the time?" Eve asked her.

Erinde glanced at her, "Aren't you the same?"

Only then did Eve realize that she seemed to have forgotten to change her clothes back just now.So, she froze in place.

"Let's go, all your things are here, clothes, spell-casting books, and those shoes... also for you." Pani smiled and waved the bag in her hand.
