Chapter 374 Memories Regained
Lilith continued her story.
After receiving the curse, she prepared to conduct experiments, but unfortunately, she had far too few experimental subjects (humans) to continue.
So Lilith first experimented on some severed limbs, and finally simply used it on herself.
She wasn't using it recklessly; she had a plan, because the note contained not only the method to curse but also the method to lift it.
She can switch between them freely.
Of course, Lilith didn't go into detail about the price to pay for the curse, but it was something like blood, demon teeth, raven feathers, and other strange and unusual things.
As expected, Lilith succeeded. Her next task was to capture a beautiful, uninjured human, turn him into a doll, and give him to Miss Pera.
Lilith had thought this step would be the easiest.
After all, she's even learned to curse.
To everyone's surprise, this step actually got stuck.
"Do you know how hard it is to find prey that meets the criteria? They're either injured or not good-looking enough. We weirdos just bite our prey right away when we catch them, so it's not that easy to find a suitable one!"
It's a good thing if you don't lose any arms or legs, let alone be completely uninjured.
Even if there are suitable candidates, they aren't good-looking enough.
Lilith is a perfectionist; if she's going to give a gift, she wants to give Miss Pera the best, so she starts looking for a target everywhere.
Finally finding someone who looked decent, Lilith discovered that he was someone else's prey in the manor. She offered to trade, but the man discovered that she was capable of assessing her strength.
"As a result, while I was carefully hiding the gift in the secret room, I was instead ambushed and killed by that gift and that person." Lilith shrugged.
Of course, it's not a matter of who's right and who's wrong. After all, the one who fought back was, in principle, human. Lilith wanted to turn the other into a puppet, so it's normal for the other to resist.
Jiang Liyue never gets too involved in the struggle between the supernatural and humans; for her, it's just a matter of who is useful.
Therefore, Jiang Liyue did not comment much on Lilith's resentful expression.
Fortunately, Lilith didn't need Jiang Liyue to share her hatred. She just muttered a complaint: "And that was the prey I carefully selected. The doll made from it is very cute. Pera will definitely like it."
After saying that, she looked at Jiang Liyue again, paused for a moment, and her fabric eyes actually lit up a little more like a human: "But you are a million times cuter than that doll!"
"If I had you first, I wouldn't want that kind of guy. If I could give you to Pera, she would be so happy."
After saying this, Lilith suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
She didn't know where this fear came from, until the huge, motionless figure not far away suddenly whispered, "Baby, we should go back."
Lilith had no idea how she could have overlooked such a terrifying presence in the room.
Is this the owner of the beautiful little doll?
No, that's not right. Why does the other person look so much like the patriarch who rarely shows his face?
"M-My lady..." Lilith bowed tremblingly.
Chu Li didn't speak, but simply reached out to Jiang Liyue.
Jiang Liyue jumped onto his palm.
Having learned almost everything she wanted to know, she casually asked about the method when Lilith mentioned having a way to lift the curse.
As for what happens to Lilith next, that's no longer her concern.
"Are we going back?" Jiang Liyue asked cheerfully to Chu Li, who was still a little annoyed at being ignored.
Chu Li thought about how engrossed she was in her conversation with others, and she didn't really want to talk to her anymore.
This fickle little doll!
Then he reluctantly said, "Well, it's getting late."
We first searched for Lilith's room, then looked for clues, and after finding her, we talked for so long—several hours have passed.
It was almost dawn.
Jiang Liyue had no objections at this point.
She had thought Chu Li would lead her back the way she came, but to her surprise, he looked at the walls on all sides that had no windows or doors and stopped in front of one of them.
Do you want me to kick the wall like I did before?
While Jiang Liyue was wondering, Chu Li waved his hand, and the original wall on the wall was revealed, creaking open.
...So if he can open the door with a wave of his hand, why did he have to kick the wall before?
As Jiang Liyue followed Chu Li out, she realized that Miss Pera's room was not far from this secret room.
To make Miss Pera happy, Lilith hid the gift in the place closest to her room.
By a twist of fate, Lilith herself is also trapped in this room, and despite being so close, Miss Pera can't find her no matter what she does.
Jiang Liyue turned to look at Lilith, who was too scared to speak because of Chu Li in the secret room, and waved to her with a smile: "Goodbye, Miss Lilith."
“Hmm…” Lilith watched them leave before recalling what she had just said to Jiang Liyue.
She actually told the head of the family's doll that she wanted to give it to Pera.
Although the head of the family has left without saying anything, will she and Pera be killed tomorrow for stepping out of the room with their left foot?
Waaah, she's so unlucky!
While Lilith was struggling with her decision, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the doorway. The footsteps stopped at the door, and the person on the other end remained silent, not saying a word.
But Lilith seemed to sense something and suddenly raised her head.
Their eyes met, and sure enough, it was Miss Pera who had hurriedly come out of the room.
Miss Pera is also strange, sensing others by their aura, but she is not as strong as Chu Li, and this secret room is specially designed to isolate auras.
But when the door opened, Miss Pera, who was in the next room, clearly felt the familiar presence of her best friend and rushed out without thinking.
"Pera, long time no see." Lilith was the first to greet her with a big smile, just like before.
Miss Pera gripped the doorframe, tears seemingly welling in her eyes, before finally speaking haltingly, "Long time no see, Lilith."
The next moment, she rushed into the room and hugged her best friend.
"I bet their reunion will be very touching. The bond between girls is so beautiful," Jiang Liyue said, sitting on Chu Li's shoulders.
"Isn't our love beautiful?" Chu Li glanced at her with a half-smile.
Jiang Liyue: ...
"Besides, speaking of reunions, haven't we reunited many times? Yueyue..." Chu Li's voice trailed off, carrying a hint of danger.
Jiang Liyue met his gaze.
Okay, we've confirmed that he has regained his memory.
"When did you regain your memories? How come this instance is so fast?" she asked.
"Just now," Chu Li replied casually, simply reaching out to lift Jiang Liyue, who was sitting on his shoulder, up to her face.
"Shouldn't our focus now be on admiring the adorable limited-edition Yueyue doll?"
Seeing the gleam of interest in Chu Li's eyes, Jiang Liyue immediately sensed something was wrong.
Before regaining his memories, Chu Li might have just been a bit abnormal, but after regaining his memories—
He is a super pervert with more than a dozen overlapping memories.
