This time, Abedo smiled particularly beautifully, with a gentle smile in his eyes.

"No, miss, I don't need your arms, just your whole body."

The girl took a sip of tea.

It's black tea, very fragrant.

"So...I'm leaving Morningside Winery, right?"

Abedo caught a trace of the girl's depression and tried to keep his tone as gentle as possible: "You need to leave Chenxi Winery for a short period of time, but if you need it, I can pick you up and drop you off every day."

"It is not difficult to use alchemy to create a tool for transportation."

Seeing the girl's fingers unconsciously sliding on the cup wall, Albedo chose to change the subject.

"Let's change the topic first," Albedo looked at the girl quietly, "Since you chose to come to me today, you should have some questions you want to know the answers to from me."

"You can ask now. Whether you can help me or not, I will be happy to answer."

The girl held the cup of black tea and felt the warmth that the black tea conveyed to her palms.

"There is indeed something wrong...Teacher Abedo."

She opened her mouth and didn't know where to start the question. Her thoughts wandered around and she finally settled on a question.

"Dolls... have hearts?"

The girl turned her head and looked at Albedo, her beautiful eyes full of desire.

It was an extremely deep desire that seemed to be burned into the very bottom of her soul.

Abedo did not think the question was outrageous, but instead thought about it seriously.

With Albedo's knowledge, he was probably thinking about how to explain the problem to the girl in an easy-to-understand way.

"If it is a heart in the physiological sense, it will probably be there at the beginning of creation, like me," Abedo pressed his left chest, "This is the basis for maintaining life, although some artificial beings do not have a 'heart' in the physiological sense. It’s exactly the same as the person, but the location is very different.”

"If it's a deeper 'heart'..."

Abedo met the girl's eyes.

"Miss, do you have feelings?"

Albedo's eyes were like a bottomless lake, and the heavy green color did not obscure the clarity.

"Normal happiness, sadness, anger, reluctance, etc."

The girl was silent for a while, not knowing how to describe it.

"Some...maybe, some are learning?"

"If you can learn it, you have a heart."

The firm words flowed out of Albedo's calm and calm mouth, which was particularly convincing.

"But, mother said I have no heart." The girl held her chest, which was beating irregularly. "Because of this, I didn't get a name."

"It turns out there is no name..."

Abedo whispered to himself, but the girl listened.

"Yes, there is no name." There seemed to be a little sadness in the girl's eyes, "As for the heart - my mother let me go out, it seems that she wanted me to find the 'heart'."

"It's just that I don't understand, even if she can't create a heart for me, how should I..."

"Miss, I can tell you very clearly that every living being has a 'heart'."

"Including artificial life, that is to say..." Abedo looked directly at the girl, his lake-blue eyes were calm without any waves, reflecting the girl's confused and confused look, "You will have a heart. "

I will have a heart.

The girl muttered silently in her heart, and the corners of her mouth raised unconsciously, leaving the quiet young man with a beautiful scenery.

...Sure enough, being too perfect is a flaw in life.

Abedo selfishly thought that he should record it with a brush at this time, but at this time his hands were empty and he could only use his fingers to lightly trace on the palm of his hand.

"Albedo...teacher, can I call you that?"

The girl seemed to have made up her mind and raised her head to look at Albedo: "I accept your invitation."

"Perhaps, I should also know something about myself."

Abedo was not surprised and just stretched out his hand:

"Then, welcome to join."

When the girl returned to Chenxi Winery, Diluc was sitting in the living room reading official documents. When he heard the girl's voice, he immediately put down his things.

"Are you hungry? I asked them to prepare food."

"Diluc," the girl grabbed Diluc who was about to get up, "Let's talk."

The girl's tone was serious and her expression was serious. Diluc just stared at her for two seconds and then sighed softly, as if he was helpless.

"it is good."

This was the third time the girl entered Diluc's room. She sat on the sofa a little awkwardly, and for a moment she didn't know where to start.

"I……"

The girl tilted her head: "I agreed to Albedo's invitation. I may have to move to his laboratory later. I'm sorry to trouble you during this time."

Diluc's hand that poured water for the girl shook for a moment, then he regained his composure and put the cup in front of the girl: "It's not troublesome, it's what I should do."

"And...I'm sorry."

She struggled for a long time along the way, whether or not to confess her identity to Diluc.

As far as she knew, Diluc had some history with the Fools, and it wasn't a good one.

But no matter what, she didn't want to face Diluc with a "fake" identity anymore.

Whether he is angry, disappointed, or even hates her...

At least, leave a little bit of truth.

At least, don't let down Diluc's sincerity.

Diluc sat opposite the girl, his eyes and brows seemed to be a little disappointed.

His eyes at this time were like the homeless kitten she had seen late at night, and the word "lovable" was actually associated with Diluc.

The girl took a deep breath and looked away:

"Actually, I am as inhuman as Mr. Abedo."

"My creator, my mother..."

"It's the Queen of Winter."

She didn't have the courage to raise her head and face Diluc. Even though she had already prepared her mind, she was still at a loss when she really wanted to face Diluc's loss.

"……I see."

Diluc's voice was cold and low, like a slowly playing cello, hitting the girl's heart word by word until she trembled.

There was no accusation, no questioning, just silent loss spreading between the two of them.

The girl felt that she should say why. She raised her eyes in panic, only to see Diluc's eyes were broken.

"I, I didn't approach you with any purpose."

"My dealings with you have always been sincere."

"I really, really like you seriously, like you."

"I……"

The girl felt her chest tightening with oppression, and her tongue twitched, causing her voice to become choked and trembling, and even her facial features were distorted uncontrollably.

She tried her best to prove something, but found that it was a bit weak.

"I am telling you this not to do anything."

"It's just that I feel from the bottom of my heart that I should be honest with you."

"..." Diluc stood up silently and walked to the girl. The girl hurriedly raised her face to look at Diluc and opened her mouth to explain, but he reached out and wiped away the tears on her face.

"It's a little late, you should rest."

Tears were wiped on her face, and the warmth from Diluc's fingertips dissipated and gave her a cold touch. Only then did she realize that she was crying.

This is an extremely unfamiliar feeling, and I can only feel the emotions in my heart pouring up at this moment, rushing out of my eyes.

Diluc didn't say anything, but she always felt that she was very far away from Diluc now.

"Diluc..."

The girl pulled on Diluc's sleeve, trying to stop Diluc's hand from pulling away.

"I……"

She couldn't explain the surging emotions, inexplicable throbbing and panic in her heart. She only felt that she had to hold Diluc and let him know how she felt.

"..."

Diluc's eyes no longer seemed to be filled with tenderness, like the water surface at night that had lost its reflection. No one but himself knew what was surging beneath the surface.

"Go and rest. Abedo will pick you up tomorrow."
