God's Gift

Chapter 69: Portrait of Andy

After the massacre, the air returned to silence, and the Crow Men, their scythes stained with blood, began to wander around again.

After Lu Keming finished thinking, he found that Yu Youyou was still lying by the window, lifting a corner of the curtain and looking down curiously.

Lu Keming frowned, pulled Yu Youyou back and dragged her out.

"They ate the eyes." Yu Youyou suddenly said.

"What?" Lu Keming frowned.

"Those crows pecked out those people's eyes." Yu Youyou held her chin and repeated it again.

Lu Keming turned his gaze to Yu Youyou. After a few seconds, he raised his foot and walked back to the window to look at the corpse in the castle.

There were indeed only two black eye sockets left on those scattered heads.

Lu Keming placed his fair hands on the windowsill, his deep eyes filled with unclear emotions.

Why did these Crow People peck out only the eyes?

For a short period of time, Lu Keming had no clue.

But the more important thing now is to find the location of the fire and information about Andy as soon as possible. Lu Keming withdrew his hand, turned and walked out the door.

Yu Youyou followed happily, carrying a big bag.

On the other side of the castle, Shen Minghua also had a bad expression on his face. Only twenty White Dove members came this time, and three of them and one unorganized person were eliminated in one morning.

"If you don't obey orders, no one can save you." Ye Li frowned as he looked at the remains outside.

Although Shen Minghua's expression was not very good, he still nodded.

After all, with the protection of the intelligent computer, they won't really die. They will just be injured and can be regarded as a lesson learned.

He took out the note and looked at the obvious torn marks on it.

"This note is incomplete. There should be other information."

"Let's first look around the castle to see if there are any remaining parts today, and also see if there are any clues about Andy." Ye Li nodded.

So the group of people dispersed in the castle again, looking for clues everywhere.

Yu Youyou followed behind Lu Keming, while Godot walked in front of them, sniffing constantly.

Lu Keming put his hands behind his back and walked leisurely, but his eyes kept scanning the castle.

They were currently on the second floor and had searched every room but had not found any other clues.

So Lu Keming walked up the spiral staircase and headed towards the first floor. The sunlight passed through a window and illuminated the portraits of people hanging on the wall.

Lu Keming stopped, looked at the portrait on the wall, and narrowed his eyes.

The portraits showed both men and women, all wearing elaborate and gorgeous clothes. They seemed to be the former owners of the castle.

Yu Youyou leaned on the railing, looking at one of the family photos, pointed at the baby in the middle, and suddenly said, "Anti was so cute when he was little."

His whole body is plump, like a glutinous rice dumpling.

Lu Keming's eyes froze for a second, and he turned his head to look at Yu Youyou strangely.

"How do you know it was Andy?"

He recognized Andy from among so many people at a glance and said it in such a confident voice.

Even Lu Keming couldn't do it.

Yu Youyou tilted her head, pointed to the lower right corner of the portrait and said, “Isn’t it written there?”

"Anti (Middle Baby)"

Lu Keming stared at the small line of words in the lower right corner of the portrait. His expression froze for a moment. He coughed and nodded as if nothing had happened.

"Ah."

He looked at the baby's appearance, then compared it with the portraits on the wall, then reached out and took down a few of the portraits.

Those portraits all depict a little girl, but at different ages.

From infants to ten years old.

The chubby little girl gradually grew up, and the expression on her face changed from a simple and cute smile to a condescending and arrogant look.

The last one, aged ten, is especially like this.

At that time, there was no smile on her face. She had a cold face and raised her chin, as if she didn't take anyone seriously.

"Wow." Yu Youyou exclaimed, "This looks like you."

Lu Keming paused holding the portrait and turned to look at Yu Youyou.

Yu Youyou looked at his cold eyes and nodded fearlessly again, "They are indeed very similar, even the look in their eyes is the same."

Lu Keming glanced at Yu Youyou, said nothing, and turned his head back.

At this time, Shen Minghua, Ye Li and others also walked over.

"Youyou, what are you looking at?" Shen Minghua asked, looking at the portrait in Lu Keming's hand.

"Oh, we are looking at Andy's portrait." Yu Youyou turned around and responded without any hesitation.

Lu Keming frowned and stared at Yu Youyou.

He thought Yu Youyou would tell Shen Minghua and Ye Li about this, but he didn't expect her to be so decisive.

She and Shen Minghua are now rivals.

Just because you like Shen Minghua, you tell him everything?

"Andy?" Hearing this, Shen Minghua and Ye Li quickened their pace and walked towards Yu Youyou, looking at the portrait of the little girl in Lu Keming's hand.

"She is actually a human." Ye Li frowned, looking at the portrait of her when she was ten years old, and asked, "Why do these photos only go up to when she was ten years old?"

She gradually had a bad feeling in her heart.

"Did something happen to her?" Ye Li expressed his bad guess uncertainly.

"Dead." Lu Keming put down the portrait, left a word calmly, and walked downstairs.

For a moment, Shen Minghua and Ye Li's expressions changed.

Shen Minghua took the portrait that Lu Keming had just looked at and found a line of small words on the back of the portrait.

"Anti Adams (1986-1995)"

Ye Li also saw the line of words and his expression looked a little unhappy.

Since Andy is already dead, their mission becomes to fulfill a dead person's wish.

But how are they supposed to fulfill a dead person's wish?

They don't even know what Andy's wish is. Even if that wish comes true, how would Andy know?

It's really absurd.

"What is her wish, a gift? Family? Or to survive?" Ye Li frowned.

Yu Youyou's bright eyes moved between the two of them, and she tiptoed down.

The staircase from the second floor to the first floor is very long. The air becomes more humid as you go down, and the smell of mold becomes more and more obvious.

The wallpaper on the wall was also corroded by mold, and some moss and vines climbed up it, and some of the portraits below were blocked by the vines.

When we got to the first floor, the scene was completely different.

The carpet in the hall was covered with a thin layer of soil, with some grass sprouts growing on it. From time to time, small gray insects crawled out of the carpet.

Lu Keming took out a pair of black gloves from the space, and put them on slowly.

The black cloth wrapped around his thin and slender fingers, making his hands look even more slender and beautiful.

He walked around the hall, observing carefully, and when he reached the wall in the middle of the hall, Lu Keying stopped.

There seemed to be some words on the wall in front of me, but they were covered by dense vines.

Lu Keming looked at the wall, waved his hand, and used his mental power to cut off the vines on the wall.

The words behind the vines leaked out.

[After the moon appears and before the sun rises, the Wendigo wakes up from underground and comes to visit its friends.]
