After being auctioned, I was taken by Long Aotian... [Xi Huan]

When Null awoke, branches with thin, dead leaves swayed above his head.The sun shines through the holed roof and through the criss-crossing branches and leaves, casting a mottled light and shade.Nuer was lying on the ground, under his body was a "bed" made of messy straw.The sheets were crumpled but clean.The quilt he made looked very familiar, no different from the bed he made in the Old Hans Hotel.

Beside the "bed", the boy was lying on the ground like a cat, with his butt up and his head resting on his arms, sleeping soundly.His soft black hair fell to the ground, glistening where the sun hit it.There was a basin of water next to his little buttocks, the sparkling water was a strange pink, like a basin of diluted blood.

With just a glance down, Nuer can instantly understand what happened last night.He was only wearing a brown linen shirt, and his leather jacket and protective gear were neatly folded on the other side of the small room.The dagger representing the "Blade Butterfly" is placed on it along with his visor.

Touch the wound on the waist, it has been well cleaned and treated.Although it was wrapped in a mess, so casual that it didn't look like a professional's technique, the wound was covered with a bandage.

For a moment, Nuer's gaze softened a little, but he quickly regained his composure.A warmth that I have never experienced rises from the depths of my heart, more beautiful than any fire in the fireplace.But reason told him: no.

He struggled to reach the stack of clothes and picked up the dagger.Since he obtained this dagger and became the "Plague Butterfly", it was the first time it left his hand.

Selo blinked, stretched like a cat, and yawned.He was sleepy and his eyes were dim. "You're awake." He muttered, "How are you feeling?"

Noel didn't feel well at all.Mitao's dagger is tempered with poison and medicine that can paralyze the nerves.Moreover, that blow just hit the most vulnerable part of the human body.Null was not killed on the spot because he grabbed part of the dagger, preventing Mitao from stabbing the weapon to a deadly depth.Now, he can't even move his fingers.

"Very good." Leaning against the dilapidated and dirty wall, Nuer was a little weak, "Where is this?"

"It's my house!" Sero grinned wildly, showing two canine teeth in a smile, "I used to live here, and no one knows about this place except me." He crawled to Nuer's side on all hands and feet, asking for credit General happily stared at Nuer, "You are safe here!"

"But you're not safe." Nuer replied coldly, "I don't have any more money to give you."

"Yeah, poor ghost! I almost believed you!" Sero smiled maliciously, and grabbed Nuer's leather jacket and protective gear, "These things can still be worth a lot, and they belong to me now. You are here You can’t wear these anymore here, I’ll find you some clothes. Of course, there’s also food…”

Sero's stomach rang out inappropriately. He rubbed his soft belly with his hands, tilted his head and said, "Nuer may not be hungry, but I am very hungry. After you knocked me out, I haven't eaten all day." Things, I did physical work again yesterday. Aren't you going to treat me to something to eat as a reward, to thank me for my care and help to you yesterday?"

"I can't afford it." Nuer replied coldly, "Peach took the money, and I drove him away. If you need these clothes, you can sell them. Then, we won't meet again, you want You can go anywhere. You can even inform the sheriff in exchange for a bounty. They're looking for me now, aren't they?"

"I don't know." Sero spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, "But you're right. Maybe I should go back to town!" He dropped his clothes and took a few steps outside, then turned back to get the sheets Wrap Nuer's clothes and protective gear, and hang them in a basket on the beam, "This is my thing, you are not allowed to steal it! You have to promise!"

Seeing him puffing his face and humming a warning, Nuer nodded calmly: "I won't."

With a heartfelt smile on his face, Sero flung his limbs and ran fast in the spider alley.He ran across the street from the back door of the Old Hans Hotel, climbed over the fence into the backyard, sneaked into the kitchen, and looked around.

Fortunately, Old Hans is not here.Otherwise, Cerro will inevitably be scolded again.Yawning, the cook and the maid were preparing breakfast for the guests as usual.They were not surprised at all that Cerro came here at this time.

It was just an ordinary morning, and the waiter Sero walked out of the kitchen with a tray of food and the freshly baked bread from the Old Hans Inn.However, instead of going to the hall, he returned to where Nuer was.

Along the way, Sero ran faster than he walked.He held the freshly baked bread in his arms, protecting them from falling with the tray.At this moment, Sero understood what it means—to return to one's heart like an arrow.

All the worst possibilities turned around in his head, and what Cerro got was the best result.He saw Null sitting on the ground, dozing off against the wall.The normally stern and cold face of the assassin appeared serene and peaceful in the dappled sunlight.

For some reason, Selo's eyes were blurred by a burst of intense sadness.His tear glands secreted some fluid, which he wiped off vigorously with his dirty sleeve.

"Nur, wake up!" he said briskly, "I brought bread!"

The injured blight butterfly spent three nights and two days in a remote hut.On the third night of his stay here, he suddenly developed a high fever.When Sero came to deliver the food the next morning, he couldn't wake up the unconscious Nuer no matter what.

Scratching his head anxiously, Sero hurried back to the Old Hans Hotel, but was caught by the old Hans who was guarding the back door.

"Bread Thief!" Old Hans held a thick and big breadstick in his hand and waved it like a weapon. "Where have you been these few days? Ah!" The old man was full of anger It was red, and a piece of bread hit Sero's back, "You take so much bread out every day, you don't want to secretly raise some stray dogs behind my back!"

"Ah——! Boss——!" Sero screamed loudly while dodging, his feet bouncing on the ground, "I didn't! I did take the bread from the store, but I will pay for it of!"

"Okay, tell me, how much bread have you stolen from the kitchen in the past few days?" Old Hans pushed little Sero against the fence, pointed a bread stick at his nose and asked, "Don't tell me you're hungry, Eat it up! What the hell did you do with it?"

"I ate part of it." Sero rolled his eyes and carefully chose his words, "I ate the rest too! I promise I will pay the boss! I need some broth right now, it's very urgent!"

"Broth?" Old Hans glanced at Sero's guilty face, "I'll give you broth, but you have to tell me first, what exactly did you do?"

"Yes, boss!" Sai Luo pointed at Old Hans' hand, "Let go of me first, and I'll tell you everything."

Ten minutes later, Old Hans and Little Cerro walked into Spider Alley together.Although he kept nagging, Old Hans still carried the broth himself, and his old legs walked fast.

"This will be deducted from your wages." When making the soup himself, Old Hans said so.No matter how Cerro insisted, he would bring the soup himself to see what Cerro had raised.

But when the old man saw him, the soup in his hand almost spilled on the ground.

"You idiot! You will implicate us!" Old Hans waved his fist at Sero, his beard flying upwards in anger, "This man should be buried in the cemetery with those assassins! You should tell the vicious dog now, put He handed him over instead of hiding him!"

Nuer opened his eyes weakly, his eyes still piercing.Even though Old Hans turned his back to him, he was shocked by the cold gaze.

"Then hand me over together! Boss!" Sero grabbed Old Hans' wrist, his eyes full of determination, "I left him behind, I did this alone, and I won't implicate you! If You have to hand him over and tie us together!"

"You're crazy!" Old Hans shook off Sero's hand, "Why did you do this?"

"Because I'm pregnant!" Sero yelled without thinking for granted, "Is there anything wrong with protecting the father of the child?"

"..." Old Hans and Nuer had the same headache expression on their faces.Both of them were silent and looked at each other.

"Bastard boy!" Old Hans slapped Sero on the back of the head, "You won't be pregnant!"

"Ouch!" Sero covered the back of his head, and was beaten up and running like a rabbit by the old Hans, "It's true! We kissed, and I swallowed his saliva, so I must be I'm pregnant! I can't see it now, and I will give birth to a baby in a few months!"

Old Hans was so angry that he supported his knees and couldn't help rolling his eyes: "You, tell me, who told you this kind of thing? Who the hell told you that you will be pregnant!"

"Garfield!" Sero held his head aggrievedly, and looked at Old Hans accusingly, "He is a doctor, he told me so! If you kiss someone and swallow your saliva, you will become pregnant, and the baby will be born Get out of your belly... that's what he said!"

"Okay...okay...okah..." The old and frail old Hans finally gave in, and he sat down on the abandoned wooden barrel by the roadside and gasped, "Go and call Garfield... He showed you the 'father of the boy' to see how he was sick."

"Oh." Sero moved small steps obediently, bypassing Old Hans and going out.Before he took a few steps, he turned around and asked, "Boss, you won't betray us, so go inform me?"

"If you don't go, I'll inform you now!" Old Hans yelled at him, "Go and call Garfield here! Now! Immediately! Immediately!"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Sero: You can't treat me like this, you all come to bully me, a pregnant woman!

Old Hans: Forget it, wait for Garfield to explain to you.

Nuer: ...you really mean it?

======================

As an assassin, Null felt insecure and rarely lay down to sleep.When he was in a coma, he couldn't control himself. After waking up, he chose to lean against the wall and fight back whenever there was danger.

It is a luxury for him to lie down and sleep comfortably.

In the face of things that are too small and ordinary, it is difficult for Null to obtain them easily.

Ordinary people may not be able to understand, but Cerro felt Nuer's loneliness.Because they are very similar in some respects, and when he came back and saw that Nuer was still there, his eyes were blurred with complicated emotions.
