"Lucas heard Zoe's leisurely and degenerate life to the extreme over the years, and said, "Who wouldn't want to live such a fairy life? "

Zoe also talked about Arthur's ability, which Lucas seemed very interested in. "The ability to read..." he said, "I have indeed heard of this kind of thing, but I didn't expect that it can be passed on to other people? Is it like martial arts?"

Zoe shook her head: "Probably not. Mind ability is life energy, which is the ability of living beings. I actually doubt whether zombies can be counted as living beings... But there is one situation, that is, the mind that becomes stronger after death. Maybe what Arthur gave me was just his 'obsession' after death."

In fact, since inheriting this ability, Zoe's body is no longer in a "absolute" state, but surrounded by a layer of faint energy.But if you look carefully, you will find that it is completely different from the "entanglement" on the person who is obsessed with it.On the contrary, it is more like an object or prop with the ability of thinking.

"Maybe I should learn it someday, this thing called reading."

"Well..." Zooey tilted her head and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't learn Lucas, I will protect you anyway."

"what?"

"I will never let anyone with evil intentions get close to you. Don't worry."

"What are you talking about?" Lucas sighed, "Forget it, anyway, I don't have the time to learn this kind of thing."

There is less than a week until the auction starts.Seeing that Lucas was becoming more and more busy, all Zooey could do was try not to disturb him as much as possible.In fact, she also offered to help, but was firmly rejected by Lucas.Even so, Zooey heard some news by insinuating.For example, the prophecy poem of the Nostra family has returned, and judging from the prophecy, there will undoubtedly be a big problem in the auction on September [-]st.Lucas became even angrier after discovering Zoe's little tricks behind her back, and forced her back to the bookstore on the grounds that she would get in the way here.To be honest, she originally planned to sell the bookstore. After all, what is the point of putting a store that has not been open for nearly a month?It might as well have passed it on to someone else, but Lucas talked her out of it.

"Isn't that what you've always wanted to do? Open a bookstore." When Lucas said this, his expression was very tangled.Zooey understood what he was thinking at a glance, so she replied with a smile: "You don't have to feel guilty, the bookstore is actually not that important, I just find something to do for myself. And you don't have to worry about my affairs... In other words Come back, Lucas, are you sure you don't need my help?"

The reply Zoe received was "absolutely not necessary", and she was kicked out of the house because Lucas was afraid that she would forcefully interfere after hearing about her ability.Although in fact it is true.

That's why she was wandering around on the street like this at this moment.While shopping, she thought, what should I buy to go home?She remembered that Lucas liked sweets the most when he was a child, otherwise, why not go to that famous cake shop and buy him a hazelnut cream cake?I don't know if he still likes to eat it, but at worst, he will give it to the homeless on the street.

"Wrist wrestling, win a diamond!"

"Come and try! If you win, you can take away this fine diamond!"

The front seems to be very lively, there are many people watching, very lively.Zoe also leaned over to take a look (there was nothing else to do anyway), and found two children, a black-haired one sitting on the seat wrestling with someone, and a silver-haired one standing by to collect money. They are all only eleven or twelve years old.There is also a young man wearing sunglasses yelling at the side, [-] ring nuns at a time, and if you win, you can take away the diamonds!

Many people nearby were shaking the money in their hands noisily and saying, let me do it!I'm next!The young man wearing glasses arranged them in order, but more people were watching.Zoe also stood there watching for a while, and found that the few middle-aged men in front had all failed.At this moment, she suddenly heard the young man in sunglasses say, "Miss, do you want to try it?"

"Me?" Zooey pointed at herself, a little surprised that the other party would cue her, but she was relieved after thinking about it, maybe she looks rich and easy to deceive.The wraps on the two children's bodies were very well-proportioned, and they didn't look weak. "Okay." She said as she took out [-] guineas and handed it to the silver-haired kid. The way he took the money reminded her of a cat that took a small dried fish, and then sat in the chair.

"Come on! Are you ready?"

The child opposite had soaring black hair and a pair of helpless but bright eyes. Zooey always felt as if she had seen him somewhere before.

She reached out and took the other's hand, and the boy showed a slightly surprised expression, but soon began his wrist-wrestling performance.I have to say that his acting skills are really bad, and his strength is really great.Zoe couldn't break it no matter how hard he tried—or actually did, but that was obviously his faking.

For a moment, an idea came to Zoe's mind. They must be here because they are confident that they will not be won away from the diamonds, right?If so, what would happen if she used her ability to take the diamond away?

However, when she was thinking this way, she suddenly felt a murderous look from the silver-haired kid next to her. She couldn't help but look at him out of the corner of her eye, and found that he was staring at her with dark eyes, uttering Silent warning.

"Ah, lost."

Just when she was running away, her wrist finally touched the bottom, and Zoe stood up with some regrets. The young man in sunglasses comforted her and said that it was all right, and the important thing was to participate!And she glanced at the silver-haired child again.

The other party was also looking at her, those blue cat eyes were very similar to Lucas (or hers?), the expression was not different, and he was saying something about it, it's a pity!If she was welcome to try again, Zooey got up and declined the invitation to participate again. She must not be as good as that black-haired kid, and it doesn't make sense to spend any more money. It's better to buy an extra piece of cake for Lucas.

Was the killing intent just now an illusion?

Thinking of this, Zooey walked out of the crowd and returned to the street, but did not hear the conversation of the three people behind her who were engaged in the arm wrestling competition.The protagonist Xiaojie stared at his hand thoughtfully for a long time, and Qi Ya next to him asked, "Hey, what's the matter?"

Xiaojie shook his head: "That sister's hands were so cold just now."

"Really?" Qi Ya pouted, "Is it a problem with peripheral circulation?"

"What cycle?"

"Peripheral circulation, idiot, a lot of people with cold hands and feet are like this."

"Hmm..." Although he didn't quite understand what Qi Ya was talking about, Xiaojie still felt that something was wrong, "I don't think so."

That cold feeling is almost like a corpse.

"It must be your illusion!" Qi Ya said, and then took the payment from the next person to wrestle.

Games

After buying the cake, Zooey saw that it was getting dark outside, and felt that she had almost finished shopping outside, so she planned to go home and take the cake to Lucas.However, something unexpected happened.When passing by an audio-visual game store, Zoe saw the poster of the newly released zombie game, and couldn't help being a little interested, so she stopped.But who knew that something extraordinary would happen at this stop.

Three people walked out of the store, very noisy, as if they were arguing over whether to "buy the game" or "empty the store".Among the three, one is a short man with dark blue hair, the other is a man with a fierce face in a sweatshirt, and the third is, of course, Zoe's old acquaintance, the knight.

It's really a narrow road to Yuanjia.Such a sentence popped out of Zooey's mind.

"Ah!" Unsurprisingly, the knight spotted her with sharp eyes, "Zoe! What a coincidence! Are you here to buy games too?"

What is "also"?Is the knight here to buy the game?At this time Zooey saw the plastic bag in the hand of the blond youth.Well, it looks like he did buy the game.

When did knights start to like playing games?

Although Zoe was dazed for a moment, she quickly pretended not to know her and wanted to leave.These days she is always "meeting" knights, if it is a coincidence, she absolutely does not believe it.But it's too coincidental to be like today, right?Ghosts believed it was a coincidence.

"Wow! Wait, don't go!" Suddenly a hand was put on Zoe's shoulder.The strength of the hand was no match for its owner's baby face, but it was clearly powerful.She had no choice but to stop, sighed, and turned around and said, "We meet again, knight."

"You can't, Xia Ke, haven't you been completely ignored?" The man in the sweatshirt whistled, "This is the woman you have been looking for every day recently? Didn't you notice that you changed your taste? You used to Don't you all like big sisters with silver hair?"

Silver hair, big sister?

Zooey looked back at the knight teasingly, and the latter laughed and was fooled.

"Your previous proposal," Zooey said, "I haven't thought about it yet."

She was talking about a proposal to recover memories.Recently, she herself is also researching this, and she also randomly took a few passers-by to do experiments (for example, first delete their memory about breakfast and then restore it), but she couldn't succeed in restoring it to its original form.She has no complaints if the knight wants to recover, but she can't guarantee what the knight will become after the end.

Having said that, does he really trust her enough to give her the memory?Zoe often thinks this way.

"Proposal? What proposal? Hey, Xia Ke, you guys don't confess to others and blow it up with us before you get a reply, do you? Where's your face?" The sweatshirt laughed loudly.
