"What did that woman put at the door?" Bai Yan stared at the rectangular box on the screen. "Have you seen her?"

Yan Er Gouzi manipulated the robotic arm, gradually enlarged the image, and started the scanning device to try to scan the items in the box. Soon, the analysis report appeared on the screen: there was a glass bottle in the wooden box, and the liquid in the bottle was found to contain alcohol.

"A bottle of wine?" Yan Er Gouzi said uncertainly as he looked at the picture in the report.

Bai Yan stared at the curly-haired woman on the screen, trying to search for relevant content in her memory, but unfortunately found nothing. She felt that Mingyue had too many secrets and couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

The moonlight coldly records everything that happens in the darkness.

In the safe house in Scotland, Shuichi Akai looked at Mingyue who was opening presents, glanced at Midorikawa Yui who was cleaning up in the kitchen, walked straight to Mingyue and sat down, staring at her expressionlessly.

"What's wrong? Why have you been looking at me since the first day we met?" Mingyue took out a gorgeous dress from the gift box. She knew it was a gift from Sister Mingmei. She held it in her hand and rubbed it for a long time. The fabric was very soft.

Unfortunately, this is an autumn outfit, and it is already early winter. Besides, people usually wear school uniforms to go to school, so Mingyue probably won’t wear this outfit. She will probably throw it together with the skirts given by Vermouth and lock it in a box.

Akai Shuichi did not answer Mingyue's question, but just said calmly: "This is a gift from your sister, but she didn't expect you to receive it so late. She is looking forward to seeing you wearing this dress, but it may be a little cold to wear it now."

Zhu Fu Jingguang, who was in the kitchen, heard the words "It was given by my sister", and came to the living room with three glasses of water. He glanced at the dress in Mingyue's hand and thought it was very gorgeous, but he had never seen Mingyue wearing such complicated clothes. This once again confirmed that the nominal sister did not understand Mingyue at all.

"When the weather gets warmer, you can wear it in the spring." Mingyue folded the dress and put it back into the box. I guessed that Mingmei couldn't afford this dress, so it must be paid by the FBI agent, or he was the one who chose this dress, and Mingmei just chose it based on his suggestion.

After all, under the strict teachings of the organization, dressing in a way that blends in with the crowd is the organization's first choice. Unless you are arranged by the organization to follow a route like Vermouth, black is the best disguise for our group of people. Mingyue looked at Akai Shuichi and said with a smile: "You made a lot of suggestions for this gift."

Akai Shuichi was slightly startled, but soon recovered, "No, I didn't make many suggestions. Your sister thought you could try changing your dressing style."

Mingyue looked unconvinced.

Akai Shuichi just smiled and said nothing. After all, it was he who drove Miyano Akemi around, and it was he who suggested that Akemi change her style and wear more gorgeous clothes, but Akemi still chose the most ordinary-looking dress among all the gorgeous dresses.

Originally, Shuichi Akai wanted to make Mingyue the focus of the crowd through his dress, so that Mingyue would be noticed and even attract the attention of the police.

Similarly, in order to avoid being discovered by the police, the organization should gradually give up its supervision of Mingyue. This will also help him take people away from the organization. After all, there is no one monitoring Mingyue at the moment. Even if she has a locator on her foot, Akai Shuichi feels that he has the ability to give it a try.

But after the incident at Tsume-nv Mountain, Akai Shuichi realized that his original plan had completely failed. Even in a case with serious casualties, even if Mingyue had not been to school for a long time, the organization could handle it very skillfully without leaving any trace.

Akai Shuichi stared at Mingyue. There were no traces of pinholes on the exposed skin. There were almost no experimental subjects who could come out again after entering the laboratory. So, Mona Mingyue, who are you?

At this time, Mingyue opened another gift box, and a box of chocolate with a faint fragrance came into view. There was no date or manufacturer on the box. Mingyue guessed that this was a gift from Sister Shiho, and it was a box of chocolates she made herself.

Shirley's expression when she was picking cocoa beans emerged in her mind. Mingyue guessed that she had made these chocolates secretly without telling anyone in the laboratory. After all, Shirley, who was under strict control, had little contact with the outside world. Whether she was purchasing medicines needed for the experiment or buying daily personal items, there were members of the organization following her.

It is probably because of this reason that the experiment progressed slowly, causing some people to be dissatisfied and send people to keep an eye on Sister Mingmei.

Thinking of those experiments, Mingyue sighed slightly, and the corners of her mouth curled up. She thought about how she had been wandering in front of MAGI's laboratory for so long, but MAGI ignored her and the progress of the experiment was indefinitely delayed.

Mingyue picked up a piece with her fingers and put it in her mouth. The bitterness and sweetness filled her entire mouth, and she felt a joy as bright as the sun.

Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at Mingyue's intoxicated face and asked curiously, "Which brand of chocolate is it? Is it delicious?"

"Sherry brand." Mingyue replied with a smile.

Zhu Fujing wrote down the brand, but he was still a little confused. "Is there such a brand? Isn't Sherry the name of a wine?"

"Of course it's the name of the wine. She made it herself." Mingyue explained.

Zhu Fu Jingguang understood, "Can I have a taste?"

Mingyue handed the box over, and Akai Shuichi also reached out and took one.

Zhu Fu Jingguang frowned slightly. He didn't think Mingyue would like this kind of chocolate. After all, the taste was very ordinary, even worse than a box bought randomly on the street. But seeing Mingyue's smiling face, he didn't continue the topic. Instead, he took out a box and placed it in front of Mingyue, "This is what Amuro asked me to give you."

Mingyue was slightly stunned for a moment, looking at the gift with purple lace handed to her, and thought of the pile of exercise books that were taller than her and were also sent by Amuro Toru. She twitched her lips and thought that it was probably some kind of prank, otherwise he would not hide it here with Little Cake Brother, but put it in the refrigerator. After all, most of her daily lunch boxes were taken from his refrigerator.

After unwrapping the light gray wrapping paper, Mingyue saw the butterfly specimen inside - Helen's Morpho!

The butterfly wings have a metallic luster and flash a bluish-purple light, and you can tell at a glance that this is a top-notch specimen.

Akai Shuichi didn't understand why Amuro Toru gave such a gift. Could it be that there was another meaning? Or did something happen between Amuro Toru and Mingyue that he didn't know about?

"A dead butterfly." Mingyue lowered her eyes and looked at the butterfly specimen in her hand, "Because even if beauty dies, the body will be preserved very intact."

Zhu Fu Jingguang and Akai Shuichi were both stunned. They saw a trace of sadness in Mingyue's eyes. Who was she sad for? The butterfly specimen in her hand?

"Beautiful life is always short, but even if it is short, it is beautiful and wonderful." Zhu Fu Jingguang spoke slowly and took out the incubator containing the larvae of the large purple admiral butterfly from behind him.

A few plump larvae were gnawing on the leaves of the hackberry tree. Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled and said, "Before they turned into butterflies, they looked like this. Mingyue, let's raise butterflies together."

Shuichi Akai glanced at the two gifts in Mingyue's hand, and it was basically certain that Midorikawa Yui and Amuro Toru seemed to have communicated something. Helen's Morpho butterfly is considered to be the most beautiful butterfly in the world, but the legendary figure Helen was the fuse that triggered the ten-year-long Trojan War.
