Elf: Daily life starting from the wooden owl

"Hell, hell..."

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Lu Ming didn't know which direction he was running in. He could hardly see where the road was.

Fortunately, not far away, there happened to be a house with a similar style to Shanlu Town standing there, but it looked a bit eerie in the heavy rain.

Under the lightning and thunder, a thin figure seemed to flash past the second floor window.

However, Lu Ming didn't notice this at all, he just accelerated forward.

Finally, I ran to the platform in front of the gate, held on to the wall and gasped for air. It took me a long time to look back.

"It's considered saved. It's outrageous. Is artificial rainfall so big?"

He couldn't figure it out, but he couldn't see anything in the hazy heavy rain in the distance.

Moreover, it was already evening and night was about to fall. Under the sound of rain, an inexplicable feeling of depression and loneliness came to my heart.

"I don't know where Mumuxiao and the others have gone, whether they are hiding from the rain..."

Lu Ming couldn't help but feel worried, but now he had no choice but to take out his phone to check Mu Mu Xiao's status.

Unexpectedly, when I touched my pocket, I found that my phone was still there, but the small bottle containing Dream's smoke was not found. It must have been lost on the road.

"Can it be any more unlucky?"

He was really speechless. Water dripped from his hair and fell on the phone screen. He wiped it with his hand and was about to lock the screen.

The door behind him opened with a creak, and a biting chill poured out of it, as if there was some dark abyss behind it!

"!!!"

Lu Ming was startled, and quickly turned around to look, but this strange feeling disappeared in an instant.

From the opened door, I saw a little girl in a white dress, holding on to the door, sticking her head out and looking at herself with a curious look on her face.

The girl has short black shoulder-length hair, which is a bit messy, but looks very cute with a baby face. She probably looks seven or eight years old.

However, her skin was very pale and bloodless, and she seemed to be sick.

Lu Ming was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there would be people living in such a place. But when he was about to ask, the little girl screamed in panic.

"Water Monkey!"

"???"

Lu Ming looked back, but the door had been closed with a bang.

But now he realized that he was covered in water, and he looked like a water monkey crawling out from somewhere.

"..."

The sky was completely dark, and except for the occasional flash of thunder and lightning, there was almost no light visible, and only the rain continued to fall.

Lu Ming did not force his way into other people's homes, but sat against the wall. After seeing through his mobile phone that everything was normal in Mu Mu Xiao, he felt a little relieved.

It's just that there is no signal here, and it is impossible to contact the outside. It seems that we can only wait for when the rain stops.

"It's really amazing..."

He let out a long sigh. Gradually, he felt sleepy, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally he fell asleep while sitting there.

zzz...

I don't know how much time passed before a ray of light shone out and the door of the house was opened.

The little girl from before poked her head out again, seemingly trying to find out if the water monkey was still there.

She just turned her eyes and saw Lu Ming sleeping next to her, so she quickly closed the door again.

But after a while, she opened the door again and shouted softly: "Kathy, there are water monkeys here!"

"..."

"Stop sleeping and come see the water monkey!"

The little girl pouted, but then she suddenly coughed and knelt on the ground holding the door. The coughing became louder and louder, waking up Lu Ming nearby.

"Hey, are you okay?"

Lu Ming's body has basically been blown dry by the cold wind. Fortunately, he is in good health. Even so, it is impossible to catch a cold.

Seeing that the little girl suddenly became silent and fainted due to coughing, he didn't care anymore, so he picked her up and broke into the house.

His eyes flashed across the sleeping Casey floating in the air. He ignored it and placed the little girl on the sofa not far away.

Looking at the quilt on top and the TV set not far away that was turned on but had no signal, it meant that she had been lying here all the time.

Covering her with a quilt and looking at the little girl's sickly face, Lu Ming didn't know what kind of disease it was, but he could tell that it wasn't a cold.

"..."

He walked over and closed the door that was completely blown open by the wind. This made the room warmer, but Casey was still sleeping.

"Can you really sleep 18 hours a day?"

Lu Ming was a little curious, and then he walked around the room, looking around, but he didn't touch other people's things casually.

The internal structure here is basically the same as that of residents' homes in Shanlu Town, with two floors and a basement.

However, the furniture and other items are relatively luxurious, and it can be seen that the little girl's family is quite well off.

There are many certificates hanging on the wall on the far right, with the name "Eleanor" written on them. This should be the girl's name.

On the table under these certificates, there is a wooden owl doll, and a Pikachu and an Eevee doll are placed lower on both sides.

There is also an ordinary Zoroa doll on the far side, so this is just a coincidence, but it can be seen that she must like these elves very much.

Lu Ming reached out and picked up the Mu Mu Xiao doll and flipped it to the bottom. There was a label there that all the dolls had.

"The place of origin is Alola City, and the production date is... 20 years ago?"

Seeing this, he was not too surprised. He was just curious that the doll was of excellent quality and was made 20 years ago. It was as good as new. If the factory hadn't closed down, he would have bought one another day.

Putting the doll back in its place, Lu Ming saw some trophies on the other side.

But the name above is not Eleanor's, it should be her parents. It seems that some researcher participated in the competition and received an award for his contribution.

"No wonder. Both parents are researchers. The family situation is really good."

Lu Ming continued to wander around this floor, but did not go to the second floor or basement. He just instinctively felt that now was not the time to go there.

But suddenly, his attention was attracted by a painting hanging on the wall.

This is a bust, but the whole person is completely blackened, the eyes are painted red, and the background behind is dark purple, which looks a bit creepy.

"Is this thing hanging here really not scary?"

Lu Ming shivered inexplicably, always feeling like those eyes were staring at him.

Then I looked back and suddenly discovered that the direction the painting was facing was exactly where the sofa was!

"Huh? Coincidence?"

But before he could think about it, Eleanor over there suddenly screamed in pain and kept calling for her parents.

"What's wrong!"

Lu Ming hurriedly ran over, but when he saw Eleanor's expression struggling, as if she was having a nightmare, he quickly woke her up.

After waking up, Eleanor's face became paler. After a while, she looked up at Lu Ming and suddenly shouted: "The water monkey ran in!"

"..."

After a moment of explanation, Eleanor breathed a sigh of relief and forced a smile on her face: "It turns out that the eldest brother got lost in the rain and came here."

"Yeah, it rained suddenly..."

Lu Ming sat on the sofa next to him, sighed, and then asked curiously: "Where are your parents? They left you alone at home so late?"

Eleanor coughed lightly and explained in a low voice: "My parents started taking me everywhere in order to treat me. Later, when they saw that I was getting weaker and weaker, they had no choice but to leave me at home."

"But they sent a Casey to stay with me at home, and then when they were not at home, Casey would secretly take me outside to play."

"My favorite thing is to let it take me to the Fantasy Bridge and look at the beautiful scenery of Hezhong. However, the bridge has not been completed yet, which is a pity..."

It seemed that she had finally found someone to chat with, and Eleanor talked a lot at once.

After hearing this, Lu Ming's expression gradually became dull.

Fantasy Bridge, Cathy, the little girl...the commission given by Lila, and the doll from 20 years ago...

"This Eleanor...can't be a ghost!"
