Chapter 23 Cannon fodder NPC will not have a double personality(1/2)
Rainy night.
Thunder and lightning.
The wooden house in the dark night was like a small boat in the heavy rain, and it was crumbling at the moment.
The strong wind passed through the gap in the dark room, and the cold was biting. The rain dripped along the old beams and spread into the house, getting more intense.
On the straw mat bed in the bedroom of the wooden house, amidst the noisy rain, if you listen carefully, you can hear a faint shivering sound.
"Sister...I'm...cold..."
One large and one small, the two children, whose combined age may not be more than ten years old, are currently huddled together in a corner of the bed.
That's the only place where rainwater can't leak.
But despite this, the quilts covering them became increasingly damp. The two of them could escape the rain falling from the roof, but they could not escape the raindrops blown by the wind.
The temperature inside the house is getting colder and colder, and the damp bedding makes the situation worse.
The sister tried to hold her brother tightly in her arms and use the body temperature of both parties to warm each other, but the effect was not obvious. She could feel her brother's body shaking even more.
It's also possible that her own body is also trembling.
It can't go on like this.
The sister pursed her lips and gritted her teeth. She pulled her brother and quickly got off the bed, and the two of them ran towards another bedroom in the house.
My sister breathed a sigh of relief after quietly opening the door.
There's no one inside.
As expected, their gambling and alcoholic father never came back.
The reason why I came here was because there was the only brazier in the house. My sister found a match from the drawer. The match was damp and difficult to light. In addition, her fingers were cold and stiff from the cold.
After trying several times, my sister finally lit the brazier.
A moment.
The red firelight lit up and swayed in the dark room.
"So...so warm...sister."
"It's the fire... Lord Vulcan, is he here to help us...?"
"I'm so sleepy, sister..."
The little brother in her arms was close to her chest, and she could hear the sound of sleep. Her sister also began to take a nap. The constant heat from the fire pit drove away the cold, and the precious warmth also made her fall asleep quickly.
But it's a pity.
This beauty did not last long.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A quick knock on the door woke my sister up.
"Open the door! Open the door quickly! Vivian!" The father's irritable shout outside the house even drowned out the sound of the rain. There was a lot of panic in his voice, as if someone was chasing him from behind.
Oh no.
Not as if.
Boom!
Vivian just left the bed and came to the door of the house. When she was about to open the door, the small wooden door was kicked open.
Immediately afterwards, my father's bruised and swollen body was also kicked in.
"Run, run! If you don't pay the money you owe tonight, I will burn your house down! Money, bring the money!" A villager in a raincoat stood at the door, his face was ferocious, and he was pulling his neck.
He yelled at his father who fell to the ground.
Even in the heavy rain, Vivian could still vaguely make out the other person's face.
That's the bully in the village, Gilbert.
Maybe it was Vivian's gaze that made Gibbert realize that there was someone else in the house, or maybe it was his brother who was also woken up and found that his sister was not there, so he got out of bed to look for her brother.
In short, looking at these two children, one large and one small, the strong villager showed a wicked smile on his face.
"You can't come up with the money, right? Then let your children come over to pay off your debts!"
Gibbert said with a sinister smile as he took a big step and rushed into the house. He picked up his younger brother who was still sleepy and didn't know what happened.
"Let go! Let Andy go!" Vivian screamed and tore at Gibbert's clothes when she saw her brother being arrested.
But how could a skinny little girl's body be as good as that of an adult man? Vivian not only failed to bring her brother back, but she herself was forcibly dragged away from home by Gibbert.
In the chaos and darkness, the girl in desperation touched a sharp object hanging by the door.
That's what she used to cut the grass...
sickle.
Although the edge of the knife has long been rusty and dull, it is still more than enough to cut a person's skin.
After all...the human body is so fragile.
As long as there is a weapon, even a little girl in her early teens can kill an adult.
Tick tock...
Tick tock tick...
The chaotic sound stopped, and the only sound of rain returned to the dark night, but this time the rain left on Vivian's body turned blood red.
"Sister...sister...sister..."
"Vivian, you...you!"
Click!
Lightning flashed across the late night sky, and in a flash of daylight, the images that flashed were of the sluggish brother, the frightened father, and the silent girl.
There was also the blood-stained sickle in the girl's hand, and Gilbert lying in a large pool of blood at her feet.
"Ah..."
"Hehehe..."
"What a useless old loser..."
The girl raised her head. It was obviously the same familiar face and familiar voice, but Anru, Vivian's father, rolled back to the corner as if looking at a monster.
"Vivian...Vivian, you...what's wrong with you! No, no, you...you are not Vivian, you...who are you!"
Andrew looked at his daughter in fear.
Another daughter who is a complete stranger.
"You bitch, do you want to die?" The sickle still dripping with blood was placed on Anru's neck. Vivian, whose face was covered in blood, looked at "her" father with cold eyes.
"If you don't want to die, just move Gibbert's body to the top of the mountain, push it down the cliff, and then... forget what happened tonight, and don't tell anyone about it. Do you understand?"
"Remember, because of the heavy rain, Gilbert accidentally slipped and fell from the cliff. He died without any body parts. He was cut up by wild beasts in the morning, and the debt you incurred from gambling was lucky enough to escape. No one will chase you anymore.
.”
"Okay...Okay! I, I'm going to move right now!" Anlu trembled, not knowing whether it was because of fear or excitement that he had cleared the debt out of thin air.
After Anruh left with Gibbert's body, the cabin returned to its original state, with only the two siblings left.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Vivian threw down the sickle and let the heavy rain help her wash away the blood on it. Then she looked as if she had not come back to her senses, and she was stuck in place.
Andy, the girl frowned.
"Humph, another little waste."
"Why are you still standing there, Andy, come here!"
"You..." Looking at his sister who was a complete stranger, the young Andy was about to retreat subconsciously, but unexpectedly he tripped and hit the brazier on the ground. He was about to fall towards the brazier.
"Idiot!" Vivian's expression changed, and she cursed angrily, but her body burst out with power that was incompatible with her thin physique.
She threw herself at Andy, and the two of them successfully avoided the brazier at the cost of rolling around on the ground.
"Does it hurt?" Vivian, who was squatting half-crouched, opened her brother's clothes and simply treated Andy's wounds from being pulled by Gibber and just falling.
"Wuwu...sister...wuwuwu...I'm so scared..." At this moment, Andy seemed to have found the familiar figure of his sister in Vivian again, and the little boy threw himself into the girl's arms.
cried loudly.
"Cry! Just cry! Andy, remember, you are a man. You can't wait for others to protect you in the future. It is up to you to protect others, especially your sister. Do you understand?"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
"Okay! Stop crying, help me quickly, your other sister is coming back, remember to carry her to the bed!"
Just when Andy looked confused and couldn't understand what his sister was saying.
I saw the girl who had been standing upright just now, but suddenly her vision went dark and she fell unconscious on the ground.
"elder sister!"
