Died at the age of 17

This is a morning like still water.

Owens stared at Vulcan in a daze, with a kind of fiery obsession in his eyes.Vulcan didn't seem to feel Owens' gaze, but just concentrated on eating his breakfast.

Xia Musha was sandwiched between the two, he felt that he was about to be melted by Owens' gaze, he hurriedly finished his meal, turned and went upstairs, leaving the two alone in embarrassment.

When walking to the stairwell, Xia Musha paused.He stood at the door for a while, knocked on the door, and when there was no answer, he opened the door and walked in.His movements were very light, so as not to disturb the old butler in his sleep.In the past few days, he knocked on this door many times, but he never got any response.

He walked in, the sun shone in, and dark golden dust floated in the air.The old housekeeper didn't fall asleep, his hands tightly clutched the sheets, his brows were furrowed, as if he was enduring some unbearable pain, and he seemed to be fighting against some force.

Xia Musha walked over and saw the old butler's clenched hand suddenly loosen, revealing a note, as if trying to convey some message to him.Xia Musha held up the note and read it in the dim sunlight. The sweat-soaked note looked like a napkin or a corner of a book that was accidentally torn off.There were dark red marks on the paper, which were faintly stained by sweat.

The handwriting on the paper was almost messy and scribbled. Xia Musha held up the note and read it carefully under the sunlight, and finally spelled out the words 'devil...leave' on the paper intermittently.

Xia Mousha took a breath, carefully identifying the message from the old housekeeper.Did he tell the devil in his heart to leave quickly, or did he say that there is a devil here and let Xia Musha leave quickly.Xia Mousha thought carefully about the old housekeeper's unconscious state these days.Obviously Vulkan said he was crazy, but the symptoms he is showing now are completely different from going crazy.Reminiscent of the extremely weird banquet last night and the frozen blood on his face, he felt that more and more mysteries covered up the truth.

He didn't want to doubt Vulkan, he was willing to believe everything about this person, but the center of all doubts pointed to Vulkan.Love blinded his eyes and also blinded his heart.He thought about his relationship with Vulcan, unlike a lover, because there is no exchange of interests, and even less like a lover, that man has never spoken or expressed love.

The footsteps were getting louder and louder at the door, knocking heavily on the wooden boards.Shocked, Xia Musha stood up abruptly, staring at the door closely.He didn't know what he was afraid of, but the shadow of fear seized his heart.He felt his heart beating violently, and he was almost out of breath.

The footsteps stopped at the door, and then the door was pushed open.Xia Musha's heartbeat seemed to have stopped.It was Vulkan who entered.He stood in the shadows with his back to the sun.A terrible shadow fell over his face.His eyes were dim.When he saw Xia Musha, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, looking cold and desolate.

He walked up to Xia Musha, leaned close to his ear, and asked softly, 'Has he woke up yet? ’ That sound was like cold moss in a sewer.Xia Mousha sat on the bed in fright, he had never seen Vulcan like this before, his smile was so gentle, but he was full of indifference and alienation.He looked at the old butler with a smile, and his eyes dimmed for a moment when he turned around. When he saw that the old butler didn't wake up, he turned and left.

The note was still tightly held in Xia Musha's hand, and he watched Vulcan leave.Just when he was about to stand up, he felt the hand on the bed tightly grasping his hand, and then pushing it away violently, as if he had exhausted his last strength, returning to the light.

Cold sweat dripped down Xia Musha's forehead, he was almost sure that the old housekeeper wanted him to leave quickly.But how can he leave, this is his home, and there are people he loves most here.

The mission he was really carrying rang in his ears like an alarm bell.He came here with the glory of his family on his back. It is his mission to wash away the sins, clear the grievances, and repeat the glory.

Xia Musha followed Vulkan out, and he grabbed Vulcan's hand.Vulcan turned his head and looked at him slightly surprised.Only then did he let go of his hand embarrassingly, and he saw a shocking red mark on Vulcan's white hand.

'What's the matter, you say. Vulkan's voice was very gentle, and the cold feeling, the illusion, generally dissipated in his mind.

All doubts disappeared in Xia Musha's mind. He couldn't figure out why he doubted the person in front of him. A kind of guilt lingered in his heart.

"About our family, do you know?" He raised his head and stared at the portrait on the wall.In the portrait, the loving smile of the father, the soft smile of the mother, the naughty brother and the innocent and lovely younger brother, he feels that everything is so strange, as if nothing happened at all.In order to forget the sorrows and shadows of the past, he also abandoned happiness.That's probably why he became what he is now.He is pure and clear, as if spotless, but there seems to be a gap in his soul.

Vulcan froze for a moment, then laughed, his smile was bright and brilliant, as if he had heard some unbelievable joke, and seemed very happy. It's a pity that Owens is gone, he knows better than me. '

Charlotte took Xia Musha away in a hurry back then, and Vulcan and Owens restrained the corpses of their parents together.It is not out of humanity and goodwill, but after all, it is for profit.Not long after this, the house passed to Vulcan.

Just as he was about to answer, there was another knock on the door, and the guests seemed to be in a crowd.Mrs. Lawrence walked in, leading Miss Emily by the hand.She took off the black veil and smiled brightly. 'Vulcan, black tea with milk, honey cake. 'It seems that she is the master here, and Vulcan is more like a servant.

Vulcan smiled, turned and walked into the kitchen, "There is no honey cake, you came at a bad time. ' He was turning the tin pot and making black tea. 'It's Miss Emily's first time here. '

Emily's face suddenly became extremely pale. She looked at the crystal lamp hanging high and at the family portrait on the central staircase in the living room.She felt that her world collapsed in an instant, and memories rushed into her mind like a raging sea, and she felt dizzy.Xia Musha walked over to support her, but Emily had completely lost consciousness and fell into a coma.Without hesitation, Xia Musha picked her up and put her on the sofa.He seemed to pick up the girl easily without any effort at all. He was surprised, but more than that, he felt distressed.

Xia Musha felt a red thread entangled him and Emily, and a familiar intimacy rose in his heart and intensified.

Mrs. Laurence expressed neither surprise nor concern.Her eyes were calm, watching the girl on the sofa and the worried boy standing beside the sofa.Vulcan came over and put the black tea on the table in front of her, and she just nodded.

Vulcan also turned his head away, staring at Xia Musha and Emily with his blue eyes.Those two children who also purely love themselves and yearn for love.He shook his head, unable to see clearly what was going on in his mind.He led Mrs. Laurence into the study, leaving them both alone in the room.

Xia Musha has been guarding Emily, as if time has stopped flowing.He looked at her face quietly, stroked her long chestnut hair, and wiped the sweat from the corner of her forehead.The girl seemed to be asleep, she bit her lips tightly, and the pale red blood oozes from her pale lips.Xia Musha felt a twinge in his heart, and he hugged the girl.

After an unknown amount of time passed, the girl woke up, and she blankly looked at the world before her, as if she had spent a hundred years in a deep sleep.She remembered, and remembered everything.She raised her head and looked at Xia Musha in front of her. She licked her dry lips and called out 'Brother' in a low and inaudible voice.

Xia Musha still heard it, and he finally understood the inexplicable familiarity and intimacy that arose when they met for the first time.The girl in front of him was his sister.She is still alive in this world.Crystal water drops left from his eye sockets, he was obviously smiling, he was obviously very happy, but he still couldn't help crying.Because of the various tricks of fate, he had obviously given up hope, but God put his sister in front of him again.

It's just that the little girl's eyes are no longer clear and innocence, the vicissitudes of life and fatigue are written on her immature face, she seems to have passed her youth and youth in an instant, and stepped directly into the vicissitudes of life.Maybe her appearance is still immature, but her heart is riddled with holes.

Her brother's tears slid down her body, and she finally couldn't help it, and tears welled up.There is no joy of reunion in these tears. The joy has long been forgotten with time, but the pain will never be forgotten.In the past, she often grieved alone in the silent night, but could not shed tears.Although I don't know why I am sad, this kind of sadness is getting worse.She has so little and is so afraid of losing.

She played hide-and-seek with her brother and hid in the closet. If her brother didn't find her, she didn't dare to come out.She huddled into a ball, and she saw her father and mother were brutally murdered. The tragic scene of her mother's death pierced her eyes and pierced her heart.She was at the bottom of the closet and she couldn't see who the murderer was.In this way, she lost her parents overnight, lost her home, and lost her love forever.She felt her whole world was darkened.She hid in the closet for many days, and she kept crying, as if all the tears had been drained, and there were no more tears left.

She was in a trance, and she knew that her life was not long, and she knew that in a few minutes she would be back in the arms of her Heavenly Father, with her parents.Her eyes were foggy, and she vaguely watched a figure walking towards her, that figure seemed to exude a divine light.Bright golden hair, blue eyes, like an angel beside God.An angel came to pick her up, and she slightly bent her mouth and smiled at that angel.

The angel hugged her, smiling softly.
