Rebirth: Infinite Train

Lin Yaoyao came to the room where Leah lived. This room was next to Alice and the others. Seeing Lin Yaoyao coming, she also went into the room.

When Leah heard the noise, she curled up in the corner wrapped in the quilt on the bed.

The bed and quilt were from Barrett's room. Leah's own bed was too dirty, so Lin Yaoyao confiscated it.

As Lin Yaoyao got closer, Leah pulled the quilt tighter around her.

She had lived on the island with Barrett since she was a child, and apart from Barrett, she had hardly ever seen any strangers.

Coupled with the pain and suffering she had suffered from illness over the years, she became even more introverted and timid.

Lin Yaoyao thought of the Queen’s other daughter, Minian. Although she was also quite timid, she became quite lively once she got to know her better.

Lin Yaoyao stood in front of her bed, not knowing what to say for a moment.

He said your father was dead and now he’s taking you to find your mother?

But seeing Leah tightly grasping the corner of the quilt in her hand, Lin Yaoyao felt a little unable to open her mouth.

"Who is she, Alice, why are we here?"

Minian's clear voice sounded, her tone full of questions.

Alice shook her head, she didn't know either.

Lin Yaoyao turned her head and said, yes, she hadn’t told Alice and the others about this yet.

"She is the daughter of Wizard Barrett. Wizard Barrett has passed away, so I took her on board."

"You're lying! Barrett is not dead!"

Leah on the bed finally responded. Her voice was sharp and her face was full of anger because of what Lin Yaoyao said.

Lin Yaoyao turned to look at her with a calm expression.

"No, he is dead."

He took out Barrett's body from the space and placed it on the ground. Although only a skeleton was left, he was still wearing Barrett's clothes.

As Barrett's daughter, Leah recognized it as Barrett's clothes at a glance.

Her hands, clutching the quilt, were trembling slightly. She stared motionlessly at the skeleton wearing Barrett's clothes, her face becoming paler and paler.

"No, he's not! He's not Barrett, he's not my dad."

Although she denied it, her voice was choked with sobs.

Lin Yaoyao had thought about hiding it from her, but she always felt that it was meaningless. It was better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Leah also had the right to know about Barrett's death.

Just tell her directly.

"Don't cry... He's probably just asleep, he'll wake up."

Minian came to Leah and clumsily wiped the tears from her face with her hands.

Perhaps it was the subtle connection between the twins. Seeing Leah's sad look, a few tears fell from Minnian's eyes, turning into pearls and dripping onto Leah's bed.

Leah stared blankly at Minian in front of her, "You... who are you?"

She covered her chest, wondering why she felt so familiar.

Lin Yaoyao was also looking at the two of them, and the more she looked, the more they looked alike.

Barrett has messy dark red hair, while Minnian has bright red hair.

Leia's hair color is dark red with a hint of purple, a combination of Barrett's and the Queen's.

Apart from their hair color, the only difference between Leah and Minnian is that one still has a bit of baby fat on her face, while the other is thin and pale.

One has human legs, and the other has a fish tail in the lower body.

At this time, Minian also noticed that Leah looked similar to herself and was surprised.

"My name is Minnie Ann, and I noticed that you and I look alike."

"Like...?"

Minnian nodded, and pinched Leah's cheeks excitedly with both hands, and even wanted to lift the quilt to see if Leah's lower body was a fish tail.

"Stop... stop making trouble."

"Let me see, could you be the sister my mother gave birth to me?"

The word "mother" made Leia's mood depressed again. She got out of bed silently and squatted in front of Barrett's bones.

Lin Yaoyao sighed secretly, took out a wooden coffin that she had bought last night and placed it next to the bones, and then took out a few sets of clothes from her home and placed them on the bed.

"Say goodbye to him properly. I've put the clothes on the bed. There's a bathroom outside. If you... have anything to ask after you're done, come back and find me."

Lin Yaoyao went out after she finished speaking, and drove out all the people and mermaids in the room, and closed the door for her.

A group of people returned to the pavilion to have breakfast. Today's breakfast was porridge and pickles, plus buns and fried dough sticks.

Lin Yaoyao drank white porridge, looked at Mond who was hesitant to speak, and took the initiative to speak.

"Don't worry, wait until Leah comes out and I'll talk to her."

Leah came out just as they finished breakfast. She put Barrett's bones into the coffin prepared by Lin Yaoyao, holding a set of clothes in her hand, and asked stutteringly where the bathroom was.

She lay in bed with her body rotting for several years, and later on, Barrett didn't dare to change her clothes easily.

As a result, although she is better now, her clothes still smell bad.

When they heard the word bathroom, Alice and the other youngsters' eyes lit up and they insisted on taking a bath together.

In the end, Lin Yaoyao only agreed to let Alice and Minnian go with Leah, and also taught her how to use hot water.

Lin Yaoyao was waiting in the pavilion for them to finish washing, and from time to time she could hear Minnie's lively voice.

"Use this... This is called shower gel. It smells really good and it can make bubbles."

"And this! This is shampoo, specially for washing hair. Your hair is all tangled. Let me help you."

It seems that Minnian really likes Leah. She can resist the temptation of taking a bath and patiently introduces it to Leah.

Lin Yaoyao waited in the pavilion for more than an hour, but Leah didn't come out yet. She had a bad idea in her mind.

I walked to the bathroom, opened the door, fanned the mist in front of me, and saw a person and two fishes lying in the bathtub.

Leia's eyes were dizzy and two blushes appeared on her pale cheeks.

Lin Yaoyao covered her forehead with her hands. Even if she was only half mermaid, she would have no resistance to taking a hot bath?

Quickly pull all three of them out.

When Leah came out of the bathroom dressed neatly, Lin Yaoyao was already picking vegetables in the pavilion with Old Lady Ma and a few others out of boredom. They were planning to have hotpot for lunch, and there were quite a lot of dishes that needed to be prepared.

Leah stood at the bathroom door with her hair dripping with water, looking at Lin Yaoyao. Finally, her shyness overcame by knowing the reason for Barrett's death, and she walked over to Lin Yaoyao and sat down.

Minnian and Alice followed closely behind and picked up the vegetables on the table skillfully.

Lin Yaoyao didn't beat around the bush and began to tell Leah and the mermaids what happened between Barrett and the mermaid queen.

"Impossible... My mother died a long time ago. She was a human. Barrett would not lie to me!"

Leia was the first to express her disbelief. Barrett had told her since she was a child that her mother died of illness when she was very young, so how could she be a mermaid?

Minian had the exact opposite attitude, "So Leah is really my sister! She was also born to my mother, so I have a sister now!"

"No! I'm not your sister. I'm a human. I have legs. How could my mother be a mermaid?"

Leia looked excited and she was unwilling to accept this fact.
