Chapter 159: What does the dream mean?
The captain of the elimination team? Lilith frowned slightly, not hiding her doubts, and leaned on the pillow behind her.
"Vill? What can I do for you?"
Will did not enter the door, as if he saw that the girl did not want anyone to get close to her, so he stood by the door very discreetly.
"I heard a guide was injured, so I came to see if I could help. Now it seems like maybe not."
He said with a smile, and said a few more words to please her. When Lilith was about to lose her patience, he really stated his purpose.
"I heard the contaminated area has been in turmoil recently. I wonder if the pollution source has spread. I couldn't sleep well at night. Hey, did you hear any strange noises at night?"
Lilith's first thought was that she and Louis had alerted the sentry when they went out, but she soon realized that since Louis came so openly, it meant that he must be sure of hiding something.
There was only a moment's pause, and a hint of sarcasm appeared on her face.
"Showing off your Sentinel's powerful five senses? I'm sorry, but I sleep well tonight, so I'm afraid I can't hear what you're saying."
Hearing this, Will didn't get angry, but just nodded good-naturedly and took a step back. Another young man appeared behind him.
It was Qi Hanxing who came with lunch. When he saw Weir, his face suddenly turned very ugly, as if he had encountered an enemy beast.
"What are you doing here?"
"Okay then, I won't bother you anymore."
In the shadows cast by the falling sun, Wei Er's smile was perfect and impeccable. He did not answer Qi Hanxing's question, as if he did not take him seriously.
"If anything seems wrong, please tell me, R."
Lilith watched the red-haired boy put the things down angrily and steadily, and came to her impatiently.
"Sister, what's that strange guy doing here? Don't be fooled by his appearance. He looks like a playboy who has affairs with many guides."
Those emerald green eyes were tinged with anxiety. Before Lilith could answer, she looked as if her position was in jeopardy.
Lilith laughed a little.
"He just came to me and asked a simple question."
"Simple questions? I think he has ulterior motives. Ignore him. Take a look at these. Is there anything you like?"
Under Qi Hanxing's hopeful gaze, Lilith slowly finished her meal, and then, under his expectant gaze, she pushed him out.
"Call me sister as soon as you come in. Your reward is gone. Go reflect on this."
"Wait... isn't this..."
The sentry's voice was blocked out, and Lilith's smile disappeared, her expression became serious and cold.
Why did Will suddenly ask such a question? What was he doubting? Did he only ask her, or was it just a coincidence?
She had to go to Louis to confirm, but not now.
The ankle injury hadn't fully healed yet, which severely affected her mobility. How come the interstellar world, with its advanced technology for so long, didn't even have an efficient healing potion?
Lilith complained silently and released a blacklisted account again.
[Is there any medicine to treat sprains? I need it urgently.]
Not long after the message was sent, the person on the other end replied.
【……】
"You really don't look for me when you're not useful, right? I haven't looked for you in two days, and you don't have any curiosity at all?"
Well, two days? Lilith didn't notice why Fu Sui was so quiet. She replied considerately,
"I thought you needed some time to yourself, too? If we get too close, things will wear off quickly, won't they?"
[…Never mind, I have potions, but even highly effective ones are very painful.]
What Lilith feared least was physical pain. To her, being able to recover quickly was more important than anything else. Just as she was about to answer, Fu Sui's words had already reached her.
[I know you're not afraid at all, but some people would feel distressed watching you. Well, instead of making wedding dresses for others, I'd rather watch it myself and I'll send it to you.]
After leaving a strange sentence, Fu Sui disappeared without a trace. Lilith sent an emoticon package of "Thank you" and looked at her wound, somewhat dazed.
Is she dreaming too often recently?
Since arriving at the base, I first dreamed about Louis' childhood, then dreamed about strange pollution sources, and just now, I was exploring with the adult Louis in the dream.
She is not a person who dreams a lot, maybe it is because she and Louis have been spending too much time together recently, which is why this happened.
But dreams can sometimes be a kind of foreshadowing. She remembered her friend once saying that dreams are the path connecting reality and the spiritual level.
Under normal circumstances, the two worlds are separated from each other, and only when we are dreaming do they briefly intersect.
This sounds a bit like the overlap of time and space now. Only when she and Louis are there at the same time, the folded space will open, and she will be able to enter the familiar yet strange school.
The injury on her foot must be healed. She must take advantage of these holidays to quickly explore the contaminated area with Louis.
If she delayed any longer, Lilith touched her heart. The steady heartbeat did not make her feel at ease. Instead, she felt that there was some hidden danger approaching.
She calmed herself down and was about to urge Fu Sui again when the doorbell rang again. This time, she remembered to check the display screen to see who was outside the door.
Xie Huan, wearing glasses and carrying a small suitcase, stood quietly. The doorbell rang only three times before stopping.
"Xie Huan?"
What was he doing here? Lilith flipped through her chat history and saw a message from a professor who had been rejected by Qi Hanxing.
[I'll come to change your dressing at 2:00 PM. Please remember to reserve time.]
Oh no, Fu Sui also said he would come over. Lilith suddenly had a headache. She quickly opened the door, wanting to make a quick decision. It would be best if she could finish the process of applying the medicine in one minute and then let Xie Huan leave.
But contrary to expectations, Fu Sui's somewhat provocative words were heard at the door.
"Professor Xie, are you acting as a gatekeeper here?"
"Fu Sui, feudal superstition is not advisable. I'm here to apply medicine to R. If you have anything else to do, you can wait for me to finish."
Xie Huan raised his glasses and his sight fell on Lilith, who was hopping towards him. His body instinctively made him put down the medicine box and tried to help her, but he was pushed away again.
Fu Sui squeezed in without leaving any trace, picked up Lilith from her knees, and looked at her lightly.
"That's really unfortunate. I'm here to apply medicine too, and I was summoned by... personally, don't you think, R~"
Lilith felt a great deal of pressure as she was stared at by both of them.
