I don’t know why, since Lily and Victoria came to her, Edith found that her consciousness and memory when she was human became more and more clear (Qi Xin: Of course it’s because of me!).Even that ferocious face gradually softened.Although there are many differences from her life, at least it can be seen that it is a human facial features.

At first, all she knew was to find cherries for the two girls to eat.Later, she gradually realized that the two girls would be malnourished if they only ate fruit.

It's just that in winter, many animals hibernate and are hard to find.So most of the time, I can only let the two children eat cherries.When spring came, she began to hunt animals.

"Mom, let me peel the skin for you!" Lily trotted over.

"Don't, Lily. This will scratch your little white hands." Edith said, "Go and play with your sister. Mom will call you after cooking."

"Then, I'll help mom light the fire!" Lily walked towards the firewood.

"Speaking of which, where's your sister?" Edith asked, "I haven't seen her since early in the morning."

"She said that the firewood might not be enough, so she went to pick some up." Lily said.

Upon hearing this, Edith couldn't calm down: "Didn't I say that you can't go far without my company?" There are wolves in this jungle!She didn't know how many times she saved the two sisters from the wolves.

"It's really worrying!" Edith picked up Lily and flew out quickly without touching the ground.

Victoria's glasses had already been broken, and she couldn't see clearly, so she could only pick up dead branches on the ground with the help of blurred shadows.

"Victoria!" Edith exclaimed.

"Mom?" Victoria raised her head and looked at the blurry figure.

Edith roared angrily and rushed behind her.It turned out that an old wolf had been following her for a long time, but she didn't notice it at all.

At that moment, she was less than one meter away from death.

"Didn't I say that? Without my company, you can't go far!" Edith said angrily, "Why didn't you listen?"

"Mom," Victoria lowered her head aggrievedly, "I just want to help you."

Looking at the branch in Victoria's hand, Edith sighed helplessly. "Go back, my boy."

She held Victoria in one hand and Lily in the other, and the mother and daughter walked towards the cabin.

"Dinner's ready, babies!"

Victoria and Lily ran over quickly, picked up the crude homemade chopsticks, and ate rabbit meat happily around the pot.

After dinner, Lily pestered Edith to play peek-a-boo.One person and one ghost, you chase each other, very happy.

"Victoria, come on, let's play together!" Lily called out.

Victoria walked slowly towards them.

From the bottom of his heart, Edith really likes Lily more, because the other party really treats her as a mother.And although Victoria also relied on her, she always felt that something was separated.

As the sisters grew older, Edith also tried to expose them to all kinds of birds and animals.

The two gradually got used to being friends with roe deer, beasts and rabbits, and unconsciously began to imitate them in words and deeds.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lucas, Jeff's brother and uncle to the girls.

Since his brother and two girls disappeared, he has never given up looking for them.For five years, he spent all his savings on it.Fortunately, his wife, Annabelle, loves him very much and is very tolerant of his behavior.

The detectives he hired to find his brother and two nieces finally found the crashed car in the 1-7-12-33 area after five years of searching...

When Edith, who was out looking for food, flew to the cabin very happily, she actually caught a live lactating sheep today!Lily can drink goat milk now!

When she happily floated back to the wooden house with the sheep, she found that the two daughters she had raised with painstaking efforts for five years were gone.

Due to her long-term separation from human society, Victoria has great obstacles in social skills.Lily, who is younger, naturally needless to say.Mom, Victoria, come here and so on, that's basically all she can say.The behavior and behavior of the two sisters are also very different from normal people.

Seeing Lucas walking towards them, the sisters flew under the bed.Victoria growled from time to time, warning Lucas not to come closer.

Lucas stepped forward carefully and handed over a pair of glasses: "You used to have such a pair of glasses, remember?"

Victoria glanced at her eyes, seemingly nostalgic.But it still makes low growls from time to time.

"Don't be afraid, I'll put my glasses here, okay?"

Victoria tried to touch her eyes, trying to recall the blurred images.Exploring, she put on the glasses.

The fuzzy world finally became clear.

She saw her hands clearly, and she saw Lucas' face clearly.

"dad?"

"No, I'm not your dad. I'm your dad's brother, Uncle Lucas, do you remember?"

Victoria approached Lucas carefully, hesitated for a while, and finally threw herself into his arms: "Dad!"

Due to the special circumstances of the two children, since they were found, they have been placed in the research institute and have been taken care of by a psychiatrist.

"Closed, starved, and distrustful of any physical contact. Being abandoned by their father, their emotional development was greatly affected. In order to survive in that extremely closed environment, they imagined a guardian who raised them and gave them They sang, they protected them. They called her, Mama." This is how Dr. Gerrard described it.

Yes, their mother, Edith, had come here.

Edith has recovered most of her human thinking and emotions at this time, and she seems to realize that the two children should return to normal life.They should communicate with more people, they should learn to walk upright, they should go to school and make friends...

She knew that there were cameras watching the two children, so she didn't appear directly.Instead, it turned into a moth and came to the two children.Victoria and Lily also recognized that the moth was transformed from their mother, and called her mother.From the perspective of those watching the camera, they are calling mother to the air.

In order to compete with the child's aunt—a woman with strong financial ability—for the custody of the two children, Lucas could only agree to Dr. Gerald's request, and the whole family moved into the house provided by the institute for Study the patient's house.

In this way, Lucas can raise his niece as he wished, and Dr. Gerald can continue to study the two girls, which can be regarded as helping each other.

Dr. Gerald showed great interest in the "mother" in Victoria's mouth and the wilderness experience of the two sisters, which is why he worked hard to help Lucas win the custody of the two sisters.

"A long time ago, a woman escaped from a mental hospital." Under the guidance of the doctor, Victoria said slowly, "She and her child jumped into the water together."

"Did your mother tell you that?"

"She showed it to me, in a dream."

Edith also came to the house.She has never left the jungle since the child's body disappeared.But now, for her other daughter, she left the jungle and went into the city.

Lily is naturally very happy.As for Victoria, wearing glasses, she finally saw Edith's face clearly.Because Qi Xin and others have deliberately eliminated her grievances over the years, her appearance now has changed a lot compared to when she first met the two sisters.First of all, her skin is no longer like dead tree bark; secondly, her facial features are no longer ferocious.Although it is still obvious that she is not human, it does not frighten Victoria.

In order not to disturb the life of the Lucas couple, Edith hid in the closet of the room of the two sisters, and would only appear when there was no one else in the room.

However, there was one thing that made Edith feel extremely lost.

Since returning to human society, Victoria seems to have begun to alienate her.

Thinking about it carefully, since the day I adopted Victoria, I never seemed to see her smile, even a slight smile.In contrast, Lily was always very happy when she was with her.

Regarding the sudden addition of two children who needed special care in her family, Annabel felt very anxious, but also helpless.She really loves her husband Lucas, so naturally she doesn't want him to be sad, so she can only work hard to take care of the two children with her husband, for which she even sacrificed her working time.There is no way, the financial strength of the two of them cannot afford a nanny to take care of the children.

What made her even more unacceptable was the various abnormalities of the two children.For example, she heard Lily playing in the room, but Victoria was standing next to her (proving that it was not Victoria who was playing with Lily).For another example, when she turned on the light, she found Lily with disheveled hair squatting on the table, and jumped down happily...

The most frightening thing is that she sometimes hears the voice of an adult woman coming from the room, or sees a flashing figure...

When she opened the door, there were only the two sisters playing in the room; after the police inspected the house, they also told her that there was no sign of outsiders entering.

She had no choice but to think that she was too nervous.

But since then, she has started to pay attention to the sisters' room unconsciously, especially at night.

At night, Lily quietly opened her eyes and crawled out from under the bed.

"Woof, woof!" Shuai Shuai, the puppy in the room, barked at the closet.

"Victoria, wake up, mom is here."

Annabelle tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.At this moment, a burst of singing caught her attention.

"Lucas, Lucas!" Annabelle pushed her husband awake, "Did you hear the singing?"

"It seems to be true." Lucas rubbed his eyes and said.

The two got out of bed in a hurry and listened carefully for a while.It was finally determined that the singing came from the room of the two sisters.

In the room, Edith happily watched the two sisters play and play, humming a lullaby.
