Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 535

[Chapter 533 Chase]

Heidi followed the staff in dark blue uniforms, walked towards another ward inside the medical facility, and at the same time listened to the other party explaining the situation to herself along the way—— “

The ‘patient’ wakes up first I came over and found you passed out beside the hospital bed, she ran to the corridor to ask for help, and we knew something happened in the ward…

“Because you ordered before, we first let the guards of the church and the resident pastor check the situation near the ward , but no sign of supernatural power contamination was found, only you have been sleeping and waking up… We moved you to a ward closer to the chapel… “

The elf girl is still in the facility. She is in good spirits, but It seems that I can’t remember what happened in the dream, and I can’t explain why I suddenly fell into a coma. Let’s let her stay for a while, maybe you have something to ask her. “

Her family is here, what can you do?” Inquiry…”

The staff stopped suddenly, with some hesitation on their faces, and turned to look at Heidi: “Sorry, I forgot that you just woke up from a deep sleep, you need to rest now…” “I don’t

need Rest, this sleep has been long enough,” Heidi waved her hand, but she couldn’t help sweeping her eyes over the other person’s face, but fortunately she quickly controlled her expression and gaze , and then asked as if casually, “Before you came in, was there any strange movement in my room? “

” Strange movement? The staff frowned and thought for a while, then shook their heads, “No.” is something happened? “

There was an uninvited guest who invaded the ward through the gap in the timeline—then left with a lot of chattering words.

Heidi recalled what had just happened in her mind, but quickly shook her head, He said calmly: “No, I just asked to confirm whether any unusual things happened in the room during my deep sleep. “

The “staff” in front of him is just an ordinary person in charge of docking, and the nagging final missionary feels too weird to Heidi. Out of prudence, it’s best not to mention the matter about that “preacher” to the ears of ordinary people.

After returning, you should report directly to the church, or the central cathedral of the city-state.

Maybe he should also tell his father, and that… Captain Duncan?

Various thoughts were spinning in Heidi’s mind, some of which even made her feel a little horrified, and with these ups and downs of thoughts, she had been brought to the end of the corridor.

The staff responsible for leading the way made some handovers and then left silently. Heidi took a deep breath in front of the ward, quickly sorted out her state and expression, and then stretched out her hand to push open the door.

In the clean and bright ward, the elf girl who had fallen asleep before was sitting quietly on the bed, leaning on the quilt and pillow behind her, holding a book in her hand and reading carefully, while a chubby and kind old elf woman The man was sitting on the edge of the bed, peeling an apple seriously.

When Heidi walked into the room, the elf girl immediately raised her head, and then a bright smile appeared on her face: “Ah! Miss Doctor! Are you awake?” “Let me check on your situation

, Heidi smiled back, and as she walked towards the hospital bed, she nodded to the kind-looking old elf woman, “Hi, may I ask you to be…” “She is

my grandmother!” The elf girl on the hospital bed snatched said.

The old woman looked at her granddaughter helplessly, then turned to Heidi with a smile and said, “This child is a bit familiar… Thank you very much for your help to Flotie, Miss Heidi.

” With a hint of embarrassment: “I don’t feel like I’ve been able to help much, and my ‘doctor’ has fallen into a deep sleep.”

“But I heard from the staff here that you fell into a deep sleep to wake Flotie from a nightmare,” the old woman handed the freshly peeled apple to Heidi with a warm and sincere attitude It’s not like being polite at all,” and Flotie also said that she felt someone protecting her in her sleep—when danger approached, there were continuous gunshots to dispel her fear.” Continuous gunshots

? Approaching danger? It refers to the Annihilation Cultist who tried to rely on the “Hint Entrance” he opened to get close to the hospital bed when the dream came back?

Heidi had a momentary guess in her mind. She expressed her gratitude to the old woman for the apple, and then sat on the chair beside the hospital bed, looking at the elf girl named Flotie seriously: “Are you Fu Luodi?” Lottie, right? Do you still remember how you fell into a deep sleep?”

“I remember… I was reading at home,” Flottie frowned and thought for a while, “Before the sun went out, grandma said the streets were dangerous , let me stay in the room honestly, and then the sun lit up again, and I was really bored, so I looked for a book to read—after all, the sun has already lit up, but I don’t know what’s going on, I just read it for a while I suddenly felt very sleepy, and fell asleep…”

“Reading?”

Heidi muttered, her eyes swept over the book Flotie was holding in her hand just now, a string of gorgeous letters reflected on the lavender cover. “The Crystal Garden of the Dreamless Prince”

“If you want me to say, she reads these messy books,” the chubby old elf lady muttered beside her, “full of unreliable fantasies, She sees that these things will be polluted sooner or later, and the gods will not protect the relationship between two men…” Flotie

immediately corrected dissatisfiedly: “Not two, but several!”

Heidi said to The old woman shook her head: “Don’t worry, it’s not caused by the content of this book.” As

soon as she finished speaking, Flotie showed a surprised look: “Sister Doctor, do you read this too?!”

Heidi: “… “

Relying on the exquisite skills she has practiced for many years, the psychiatrist ignored the momentary differences in the expressions of Flotie and her grandmother, but looked at the elf girl with a serious face: “In short, you did not try to observe it when the sun went out. Didn’t look at the sky?”

“Of course, who would dare,” Flotie stuck out her tongue immediately, “Which sane person would dare to look around when the sun goes out?”

Heidi’s face was blank. expression, and then asked: “Do you remember what happened during your deep sleep? A little impression is fine—except for the ‘gunshots’, which I know.” “…except for those few

gunshots , I really only have a little impression of anything else,” Flotie recalled seriously, and said uncertainly, “I just remember that I was lying in the dark all the time, and I couldn’t see my surroundings or hear clearly. voices, and there are many, many shadows in the darkness, like other people, standing around me…”

Heidi’s expression immediately became serious: “Many, many shadows?”

…

Deep in the boundless sea, a In a city-state far away from Purland and Qingfeng Harbor, a figure in a thick black coat hurriedly flashed into an alley.

This figure was in a hurry, staggering slightly, as if he was in a panic. He avoided the prying eyes that might exist at the entrance of the alley, and got into one branch after another. After drilling for a long time, he finally stepped into a room.

At this moment, it was approaching dusk, and the afterglow of the sun was quietly fading from the city. Before the gas lamps on the street were turned on, the darkness had already fallen one step earlier, and gradually submerged the houses in the city-state.

There was the sound of a match being struck, and the oil lamp in the house was lit.

The man threw his thick black coat on the armrest of the sofa, went to the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of spirits and filled a glass for himself, took it to the sofa and sat down, drank half of the glass in one gulp, and then was brought by the oil lamp. He let out a long sigh of relief amidst the slight sense of security.

The strong alcohol stimulated the taste buds and nerves, and relieved the horrifying pressure that seemed to be entangled in the tarsal bones. He once again felt that courage and vitality returned to this body, and his somewhat cold hands and feet warmed up again.

The slight sound of chain friction came into the ears. Behind the man, a pitch-black chain slowly emerged from the air. One end of the chain was connected to his body, and the other end bound a floating in mid-air, as if made of smoke and dust. Condensed jellyfish.

This chaotic and ignorant demon appeared, unconsciously expanding and shrinking in mid-air, sending a signal of restlessness to the man.

“I know, I know, we almost got into big trouble,” the man muttered a little irritably, he knew that the deep demon has no heart, and he can’t understand human language, but after living with the demon for many years, he no longer I consciously developed the habit of talking to my deep demon, as if this dangerous cloud of dust was really my trustworthy family and friends, “Who knows how that cursed captain suddenly appeared…Damn it, this What does this matter have to do with him…”

He put down the wine glass in his hand, leaned on the sofa and raised his head, his eyes were unfocused looking at the roof, and his tone was resentful.

“Those mentally handicapped sun residues are useless, even the ‘witch’ can’t deal with it… Well, the believers at the bottom are all mentally retarded, and those who are called ‘messenger’ are just a group of brainless residues, The so-called children of the sun are just puppets who can’t think… Those sun believers, from top to bottom, couldn’t find a few with complete intelligence, and they were almost killed by them…”

He muttered, got up and picked up the wine glass, He took two more gulps, feeling his heartbeat gradually calm down, then turned his head and took a look at his symbiotic demon.

“Be quiet, we’re safe, we’ll find other opportunities later, if those nagging preachers are right, there will be more elves affected by the ‘primordial defect’ soon, we’ll always have There is a chance to find someone who entered that dream again…”

He stopped suddenly.

The soot jellyfish was constantly expanding and contracting in the air, sending increasingly disturbing signals to its symbionts, and the man seemed to gradually feel something—his dull spiritual intuition finally began to warn, and after a round of stronger In a round of fear, his perception finally broke through the self-protection in his subconscious, and he began to notice… that gaze that was close at hand.

With a “gurgle”, the man swallowed, his eyes gradually turned downward.

He looked at the wine glass in his hand.

The remaining liquor swayed slightly in the cup, reflecting the flickering light of the oil lamp, and under the strange green light, a gloomy and majestic face was reflected in the cup, watching him calmly.

“Go on,” he heard the unreal voice echoing in his head, as if it were his own thoughts, “I like people who are used to talking to themselves.” (End of this chapter
