Weird Stories: Gothic Lolita Begins

Several people were shocked and looked at it carefully.

In a private clinic-like building in a remote location in the western suburbs of Anaki City, a man was taking a baby from a white coat.

"Private clinic?" Rex thought.

"Is that your father?" Eve, who had read Lei's information for a long time, looked sideways at the real owner and confirmed.

"It's him." Lei nodded and said affirmatively.

At this time, the red-haired young man had a complicated expression.

Night Crow, who had recently "visited" many different super-energy factory terminal laboratories in one go, couldn't help but remind him: "The situation looks wrong, you'd better be mentally prepared."

"... I understand." Lei nodded heavily.

No, you don't understand! This is not as simple as an illegal household or baby trading...

Night Crow sighed in his heart, but didn't say it directly.

Some things are better to see with your own eyes.

Unlike Lei, who knew only a little about the inner world, Eve had obviously thought of something. She pursed her lips tightly, and the hand on the handrail unconsciously tightened the unknown wooden black railing.

Looking at the bulging veins on the hand, Night Crow secretly felt lucky that this girl was a truly "fragile" magician, otherwise...

"If there is no problem, I will continue to "rewind"?" The phantom crow standing on the figurehead looked back and forth between Lei and Eve, asking for advice.

"Go on." Eve replied in a low voice.

She had a hunch that what she saw next would reveal her true life experience that had been hidden by something.

Lei took a deep breath and nodded immediately afterwards.

So, the frozen picture continued to run in reverse.

The baby returned to the arms of the white coat.

The man with a stethoscope hanging around his neck, who looked kind and gentle, walked backwards back to the inner corridor.

The elevator door at the end of the corridor opened and closed, carrying the man in the white coat down.

The control panel only showed the elevator from the first floor to the third floor, which went down hundreds of meters and finally stopped at the end of a metal corridor with a sense of technology.

The man in the white coat continued to walk backwards with the baby in his arms, passing by laboratories and specimen rooms filled with huge glass columns and complex instruments.

Those glass columns were half empty, and most were filled with strange liquids of different colors.

The liquid was filled with all kinds of strange things that challenged the limits of ordinary people's cognition.

Facing those things, even Lei, who didn't know much about the inner world, knew with his heels that this was probably not a legal place, and thought about it again. Thinking of Night Crow's description of "half and half" at that time...

Lei's heart sank again and again.

Starting from the seemingly ordinary clinic on the ground, the illusion of the past was not accelerated. Despite this, the man in the white coat holding the baby still quickly reached the end... No, it should be called the "starting point".

It was a laboratory with the same specifications as the one I had passed by before. On both sides of the wall, there were four huge transparent glass columns that reached the ceiling in an orderly manner.

In the eight glass columns, except for the first one on the left hand side of the door, which was empty, the rest were filled with some kind of light green, vibrant-looking liquid.

In each of the liquids, there was a baby, almost identical in appearance to the one in the arms of the man in the white coat, except for the size and gender.

Against the wall facing the only exit of the laboratory, there was an additional huge transparent glass column filled with a light yellow-green, slightly turbid unknown liquid.

In the center of the liquid, the boy, with only his head, the upper half of his body above the chest, and half of his right arm, closed his eyes and floated there quietly.

The boy had short, slightly curly light brown hair, a baby face with a little baby fat, exceptionally soft facial lines, and fair skin.

The somewhat distorted picture, like a yellowed old photo, suddenly froze again.

The phantom crow standing on the figurehead looked around at the three passengers with unhappy expressions and asked again: "Do you want to continue?"

"Of course!" Eve said in a deep voice, "It has come to this point. Can we still pretend that nothing has happened?"

Lei pursed his lips and said nothing, but his eyes were stubborn.

Rex seemed to want to say something, but after thinking about it, he didn't say it.

- His intuition told him that at this moment, as an unrelated person, he should keep quiet.
