Chapter 208 She Must Accept This Reality
Anne huddled behind Toby.
Her other beast husbands also gathered around, holding guns in their hands, looking at the tiger and elk vigilantly.
"tiger?"
Ashley looked at Scarlett, "Matthew never said there was a tiger among the wanted criminals."
He looked at the elk hesitantly, "It was the elk who mentioned it."
The elk was very large, almost as big as a tiger, with huge antlers that were tall and sharp, spectacular and beautiful.
Anne saw Scarlett coming, wiped the tears from her face, pointed at the elk and said, "Cousin, she, she is Minnie!"
Just now, Anne opened the door and went out to chat with Scarlett.
A tiger descended from the sky and attacked her.
She was startled and stepped back.
Minnie, who was sorting clothes in the room, saw the tiger's expression change. His fat body moved flexibly and turned into an elk in the air, blocking her.
She subconsciously called out Toby's name.
Then everyone came.
Anne couldn't believe it, it turned out that Minnie was also an orc.
She looked at it blankly.
I don't know whether I should worry about Minnie or themselves.
The tiger tilted its head and looked at Scarlett. There was no hostility on its face, and it looked extremely docile.
Scarlett nodded.
The tiger grinned, shook its head, and turned back into human form under the gaze of everyone.
It's Matthew.
He walked towards Scarlett with a playful smile, "Hey, I did a good job, didn't I? Don't forget what you said, give me half of the bounty."
Matthew comes from an alien planet, so he is naturally an orc.
So Scarlett discussed with him and tried to test Minnie.
Scarlett had suspected Minnie a long time ago.
After rescuing Anne from Froer Manor, Minnie stayed by Anne's side, followed the rules, and took good care of her. She did not show any abnormality or do anything to harm Anne.
So Scarlett didn't take any action and only sent Matthew to observe secretly.
Now the other wanted criminals have been found.
It's time to end the mission.
Scarlett didn't delay and used Matthew's beast form to force Minnie to reveal herself.
Minnie still cares about Anne.
Scarlett thought to herself.
Seeing that everyone had seen her beast form and knew her identity, Minnie smiled and gave up struggling.
He glanced at Anne, her expression calm as usual, blinked, changed back to human form, and turned to look at Scarlett, "What do you want to do?"
Kill her.
Or use her against others.
Scarlett thought about it and said, "It's up to you."
Mei Ni was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Scarlett: "It's up to you. You can leave here or stay here."
"Aren't you afraid that I will run away? Or deal with you?" Minnie asked uncertainly.
"Afraid."
Scarlett said, "But you are an orc, and we are ordinary people. We can't win, so the choice is yours."
"Ordinary people?" Minnie smiled, "But you are not ordinary at all."
Scarlett didn't respond and just looked at Minnie quietly.
Under her gaze, Minnie raised the corner of her mouth inaudibly and said, "Scarlett, my ability is healing. I'm not good at fighting. No one will need me."
This simple sentence represents Minnie's surrender.
Perhaps from the moment Annie carried her on her back, she had already figured out how to go.
She can't fight and her mental strength is not high. Orcs only think of her when they are injured and need healing.
She was always pushed around, didn't know what to do, and no one cared about her.
Except Annie.
That day.
Shiveri gave the order, asking her and the parrot to kill Anne, and at the same time lure out the people hiding outside the manor and kill them together.
It was no accident that she was there.
Silly Annie thought she was going to save her.
She fell down several times, delaying Anne's departure and making this escape game more real.
However, Anne stopped for her several times, helped her up, and ran with her regardless of danger when their lives were at stake.
So this is what it feels like to be cared about.
Even when leaving the manor, Anne was afraid of getting her into trouble and wanted to take her with her.
Shivri went with the flow.
Order her to monitor Anne.
But just as they left Fule Manor.
Minnie knew that she never wanted to work for Shiveri again.
She just wanted to stay by Annie's side and protect her.
Mei Ni took one last look at Annie and said with a smile, "Second Miss, I'm leaving now. Take good care of yourself."
"Minnie..."
Annie also looked at her.
Minnie smiled.
He left without looking back.
…
…
Lanxi Street.
When Minnie arrived, the streets were in a mess.
Vivian and Avni were lying on the ground, covered with a layer of frost, unable to move, with dead bodies beside them.
Francis spat out several mouthfuls of blood, clutched his chest, and sighed repeatedly, "It hurts so much!"
Rachel's face was pale, her eyelashes and eyebrows were covered with frost, the snake's tail was broken, and blood was flowing all over the ground.
Shiviri wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with great pride, "Well, it's all over. Considering that we once worked together, I will give you a quick death!"
She said it was to burn their bodies with fire.
It hurts, but it won't kill you immediately. This is her favorite way of torturing people.
Shiviri does what he says.
A ball of fire gathered in his palm, and he was about to hit Rachel.
A water-green shield suddenly blocked Rachel and the others, and then a deep female voice rang out: "Sorry, I'm late."
…
…
The underground maze is getting colder and colder.
Ice has begun to form at the edges and is spreading towards the center of the maze.
Anne was still thinking about Minnie.
Scarlett was there to comfort her.
The two sisters hadn't finished speaking yet.
A light screen representing the mission popped up.
[Mission 1: Find 12 wanted criminals. (5/12)]
[Mission 1: Find 12 wanted criminals. (6/12)]
They both saw it at the same time.
"cousin!"
Anne grabbed Scarlett's arm, "Is anything going to happen to Minnie?"
Scarlett wasn't sure about this either.
She couldn't give Anne a definite answer. She looked into Anne's worried eyes and said word by word, "Annie, Minnie is a wanted criminal. This is our mission. They are bound to be injured, or even die. It's unavoidable."
"Besides, this world is fake, just an illusion. They died long ago. No matter what the outcome is, you must accept it."
Both the words and the voice were a little cold.
Scarlett had to make Anne understand her current situation.
The more cruel it is, the more it can make the other person sober.
Annie was stunned for a moment, her brows furrowed, and she slowly came to her senses from her worry. After hesitating for a long time, she said, "Okay, I understand."
"Bang!"
Anne finished her words.
The sound of a teacup falling to the ground startled someone outside the room.
The two looked at each other at the same time.
Scarlett quickly opened the door and saw a fluttering skirt disappear around the corner.
Anne asked Scarlett from behind: "Cousin, you said that to her too, right?"
Scarlett looked at the white porcelain fragments on the ground and said, "Hmm," "She must accept this reality, otherwise she won't be able to live peacefully."
