Red Moon Returns

"Let me go, let me go."

The little girl's voice was clear and pleasant, but her strength was quite strong. She swung her arm hard and tried to free it from Lynch's hand. The fierce Lynch was a little worried whether the child would break his arm.

"Shh, shh, look clearly, I'm a human, not a monster."

Lin Qi nervously looked at the corridor outside the door. Fortunately, the deep divers had gone out to challenge, and the little girl's voice did not alert the enemy.

The frightened girl gradually calmed down after hearing the words, stopped struggling, rolled her beautiful eyes, and stared at Lin Qi's face for a long time, as if to confirm whether what he said was true or false.

"Are you really... human?"

Only then did Lin Qi have a chance to take a closer look at the girl.

It looked familiar, but I couldn't remember where I'd seen it before.

The little girl spoke with a strange foreign accent. She was wearing a colorful and exotic pleated skirt. She was not wearing a hat, and her long golden flaxen hair was hanging down her back. The brown eyes are big, and there is a hint of weirdness in them...fuck.

Lynch only had time to put his hat on his head when a shadow fell from the sky.

The child didn't seem to believe Lynch's words at all. He grabbed another clay pot from the corner and smashed it down.

Are children in this world born with the skill to hit people on the head with a clay pot?

And are people in this world sick? Why are there so many cans in the cabin?

Before I could vomit the complaints in my heart, I was hit on the head. Fortunately, I put on the hat that was endowed with absorbing properties in time, just like wearing a helmet.

So there is no way to go out without wearing a helmet.

The jar was smashed to pieces, but there was nothing wrong with his head. It was just full of broken ceramics. The little girl looked at Lin Qi blankly, as if wondering why this man was fine.

After dozens of days of experience, Lin Qi knew how to deal with the naughty child. He directly dragged her over and pinned her to the ground, and slapped her buttocks three times. When she saw the little girl puckering her mouth and was about to cry, she immediately scolded her in a low voice: "Shut up and show me clearly. Have you ever seen a normal monster like me?"

The little girl stared at Lin Qi and blinked, the alertness on her face gradually thawed, and suddenly she let out a howl and threw herself into Lin Qi's arms.

Lin Qi froze and almost shot directly.

The strange environment and strange children made Lin Qi feel wary. But she was still a child after all, and Lin Qi really couldn't bear to push her away at this time, so he could only maintain the greatest vigilance and pat her back gently, ready to respond to her possible movements at any time.

The child's body was soft and warm, completely different from the cold deep diver. Feeling the child in his arms shaking with fear, Lin Qi felt soft and let her cry for a while before pushing her away. He opened his mouth and asked hard-heartedly: "Now tell me clearly who you are and why you are here."

"I, I..." the little girl wiped her tears and looked at Lynch secretly. She choked for a moment before whispering, "I went out to play with my parents on the boat, and then suddenly there were a lot of fierce monsters coming out of the sea. When I came out, my parents hid me in that box, and they..."

boom.

Just as he was talking, there was another huge earthquake on the ship's hull. The little girl was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she slipped into Lin Qi's arms again.

Feeling the child in his arms shaking like a frightened kitten, Lin Qi seemed to be able to feel the fear of hiding here alone in the past few days. Although he was already anxious, he could only pat the little girl's back and comfort her softly. .

"They said they would come back to pick me up in a while, and then ran away, but I waited for many days and didn't see them. The sailors on the boat were also missing. There were only those monsters emerging from the sea outside, and I didn't see them either. If you dare to go out, you have to hide here and wait for your parents. Oh, oh, uncle, I'm sorry, I shouldn't hit you. I was wrong. Can you take me to find my parents? "

Although he was already distraught, but seeing the child almost out of breath from crying, Lynch still gently rubbed the little girl's head.

It seemed that my guess was correct. This child was a passenger on the ship who met pirates inexplicably. Her parents had probably died at the hands of pirates along with the crew. Where could they find them?

The question is, how to tell her?

Tell her, your horse is dead? Or take her to the mate's room to see her parents in the hole?

No, I'm not that crazy.

Lin Qi sighed and comforted softly: "I'm sorry, uncle doesn't know where your parents are. It's too late to find them now. Those monsters will be back soon. Let's do this. Uncle will take you out first and wait for you. It’s safe. If you have a chance, uncle, can you help you find your parents?”

I thought I needed to spend some time, but I didn't expect that the little girl was quite obedient. Although she was reluctant, she nodded and said crisply: "Well... okay. Let's go now."

"Uncle is looking for something else, please wait for me for a while."

"What are you looking for?" There were still tears on the little girl's face, and a look of curiosity flashed in her eyes.

"A small wooden box should be in the hands of the monster headed by them. Do you know where that monster lives?"

Lin Qi just subconsciously asked casually. The little girl had been hiding here, so it was impossible to know. But to his surprise, the little girl's eyes widened and she replied bluntly: "It's in the captain's cabin."

"Huh? How did you know?"

"That day I heard monsters fighting outside, and I heard them shouting that I had to go to the captain's room to find the boss for comment."

This little girl is quite thoughtful. She remembers every word so clearly. However, Lynch still frowned and muttered, "The problem is that I have already looked there, but I didn't find the wooden box. Could it be that the leader took it away with him?"

"There is a small hidden compartment in the captain's room. When I went to play with the captain grandpa before, he showed me the treasure inside."

Isn't that the secret compartment? Lynch took a deep breath and his eyes lit up. If the leader of the deep diver found the secret compartment, he might really hide important items in it.

"I'll take uncle to find it."

The little girl actively took Lynch's hand and dragged Lynch out. Although she was surprised why the little guy suddenly became so active, she didn't think much about it. She simply picked up the little guy and ran towards the captain's room.

The captain's room has not changed at all since leaving. It is still as weird as before. As soon as he entered the door, Lynch put the little girl down. The girl looked around and suddenly smiled: "It turns out that it was really thrown here."

As she said, the little girl ran to the bed, took out the doll under the bed and held it in her arms.

Hmm? Lynch suddenly realized why he felt that the little girl looked familiar. She looked almost exactly like this doll, or rather, this doll was made according to her appearance. No wonder she was so happy after finding it. It seemed that this was also the doll that fell under the bed when she went to play with the captain.

"Thank you, brother, for helping me find the doll." The little guy said happily, and then pointed to the broken cabinet, "The last time I saw the captain, he just pressed inside the cabinet, and then the cabinet opened a small grid."

Finally, there is a clue. If everything goes well, the gem can really be found before the deep diver returns.

Lynch was a little more expectant in his heart, and walked quickly to the broken cabinet to check it carefully.

After touching it, it seemed that there was no mechanism. Thinking carefully, such a child could find out what he pressed in the cabinet, which means it should be obvious. Put yourself in her shoes, if I were her, I would come in and see...wait.

Lynch suddenly felt cold all over because he realized something.

Such a weird room, I was scared, why is this child not scared?

Is this a normal child?

Realizing this, Lin Qi couldn't care about anything else and rolled to one side at the fastest speed. The next moment, a huge force came from behind and hit the cabinet heavily, smashing it to pieces.

Lin Qi looked back while rolling and saw that the little girl had climbed onto the table at some point and squatted next to the basin of rolling green liquid. With a weird and hideous smile on her face, she pressed the doll that looked like her into the green water.

"Thank you, uncle, I will send you to see your parents now."

The next moment, the water surface began to churn violently, and an increasingly strong sense of oppression emerged from the basin.
