It was getting dark, and Adeline fed Lilith solid food, bathed and changed her clothes, and then let her play on the small bed.

Since Lilith could no longer enter the planting space after she was born, Adeline waited until Lilith fell asleep after playing tired before entering the space to meditate.She allocated a little consciousness to Lilith. If Lilith woke up crying in the middle of the night, she would be able to sense it in the space, and then she would come out to coax her to sleep.

But Lilith seldom cries, except when she loses her temper and cries when she doesn't have enough to eat, she is quiet at other times, including at night.Several times when Adeline came out of the space in the middle of the night, she found Lilith playing in the crib with her eyes wide open. She didn't seem to be afraid of the dark at all, she hugged her little arms and legs and gnawed. Very happy.

"Dong dong dong~~~dong dong dong~~~" The knock on the door suddenly sounded loud and urgent, breaking the quiet and warm atmosphere in the house.

Seeing that Lilith wasn't frightened, Adeline quickly walked to the living room and opened the door after tucking up the quilt for her.

"Oh, Adeline, I'm so sorry, I'm afraid I won't be able to look after Lilith for you tomorrow!"

Tina, who just came home in the afternoon, appeared outside Adeline's room again. Her voice was a little hoarse, and it sounded different from the usual high pitch. It seemed that she was crying just now?

"What's the matter, Tina, did something happen at home? I can take care of Lilith myself. You can take care of the family affairs first. I don't have to worry about it here."

Tina has been invited by Adeline to take care of Lilith since she was born, and Adeline herself likes the cheerfulness and enthusiasm of this black and fat lady.

In the past, Adeline only focused on recovering mana, and didn't care much about other things. Now that her cultivation base has been promoted to the seventh floor of the Qi refining period, she can already start using spells; the concentration of aura in the planting space has played a significant role in her cultivation. The role has become much smaller, and she needs to feel the way of heaven and find opportunities in her daily life, so Adeline plans to find a job recently.If there are many people who have something to do and contact, it will be easier to understand the way of heaven, and opportunities will come to you.

It was the same when she was in Qingyunmen before. After her cultivation base reached the seventh level of the Qi refining stage and she was able to fly with a sword, the master would drive her down the mountain every year to practice for six or seven months.She has set up a stall at the place where mortals gather at the foot of the mountain, has done fortune-telling, and has written letters for the cook. The speed of her cultivation is actually no slower than that of her fellow students who stay on the mountain every day.

Since Tina couldn't come to take care of Lilith tomorrow, Adeline gave up her plan to go out to find a job tomorrow and decided to stay at home and take care of Lilith.

As for the difficulties encountered by Tina's family?Adeline didn't ask casually, whether it was her good impression of Tina or from the perspective of finding opportunities, she asked sincerely.If possible, she would also like to help Tina.

The Dao of Longevity that Master taught her was never a ruthless Dao that her relatives would not recognize. The Dao was one of three thousand, as long as she followed her own heart, it was the Dao of Longevity that suited her.What's more, she has always kept in mind the admonition of the masters and ancestors asking the disciples of Qingyunmen to subdue demons and subdue demons!

Although Adeline didn't like to meddle in other people's business, she would not be polite if those spirits came to her door.

"Oh God, my sister Hannah's daughter Charlie is missing! She disappeared on the way home from school! The police officer said 24 hours would be prime time to find Charlie, but it's been three hours But there is no news. Adeline, I am really scared this time!"

Tina's voice trembled a little, and Adeline could tell that she was really scared, but the little girl was missing?Although Adeline is not inexperienced in finding missing persons, a cultivator like her would never intervene casually in criminal cases that have already been filed.

"Tina, don't worry. I believe the police officers will try their best to help you find Charlie! Are you going to Hannah's house or the police station?"

"The police station. Hannah didn't want to go home and wait. She said that she could only know about Charlie's news as soon as she stayed at the police station! Oh, my poor Charlie, I just settled the three boys at home. I was about to rush to the police station to accompany Hannah, but on the way I suddenly remembered that I promised you to help take care of Lilith tomorrow, so I came here to tell you!"

"Tina, it's Charlie's matter that matters now. You don't have to worry about me and Lilith at all. Go to the police station quickly and call me if you have any news. I'm also very worried about Charlie!"

Tina also knew that now was not the time to chat, so she nodded and said good night to Adeline before turning around and leaving in a hurry.

Adeline also closed the door. She was a little worried. She felt that Miss Charlie's disappearance was not an ordinary criminal case, and the intuition of practitioners was always accurate.

The porch window by the door was wiped clean by Tina. The sky outside the window was already dark, but the street lights were bright, and Adeline could clearly see Tina's fat figure parked outside the lawn of the neighbor Luo Luke's house with naked eyes. Luo Luke was talking to her on crutches.

Adeline's current consciousness is still unable to detect such a long distance, but she can still see the expression on Tina's face clearly. She must be repeating the conversation with herself just now.Tina also cleans for Luo Leke's house twice a week. Maybe she is also asking Luo Leke for leave!

Rolek turned his back to Adeline, and Adeline couldn't see his expression at all.This neighbor has always made Adeline feel a little weird. He is not a monster, but he is not like an ordinary person, and his attention to Lilith is a bit extraordinary. Although his attention is not malicious, Adeline still cares about her. He is wary.

Roleke's son, Josh, was different. The older unmarried young man had a gentle temperament, and he was really kind to Lilith and himself. Just like the family of four on the left before, they were all kind and honest.Unfortunately, shortly after the one-eyed William incident, the family on the left moved out at some point, and the house has been vacant since then.

It seemed that Tina and Roluke had been talking for a long time. Just as Adeline was thinking about it, she saw Tina waving goodbye to Roluke, then hurried forward, and quickly disappeared into the night.Luo Luke also turned around and walked back to the house slowly on crutches.Adeline also turned around and went back to the house to coax Lilith to sleep.

This night is definitely not a peaceful night.
