[Comprehensive] This is using life to kill

Together with the Duchess, Alice and her party crossed the forest and headed towards the castle.

They were walking in the rose garden, and the green bushes were dotted with red and white roses, which looked very pleasing to the eye.

"The rags could be damaged just now, why can't you take them off now?" Squalo tugged at the skirt on his body, his expression contorted, "Hey! Find the bastard boss quickly and leave!"

Fran ignored his captain's roar, turned his head and said to Alice, who was hesitating whether to cover the key parts with the white apron on his body, "Boss is our last partner."

"Huh?" She looked up at him in a daze.

So, are they leaving here soon?

"Well..." she said softly, "Then I wish you all the best of luck."

Fran looked at her steadfastly, before speaking for a while, "You can come with us." He said, "Because this place is originally..."

Before he finished speaking, the earth suddenly shook, and his lingering sound disappeared in the shaking.

This is……?

"Hand." Ignoring the previous topic, Fran stretched out his hand to bring her over.

Alice opened her eyes wide and reached out to hold his hand, but suddenly countless vines and branches broke through the ground, separating her from Fran.Fran's emerald green eyes darkened a little, and then he opened his mouth and made several mouth shapes.

What is Mr. Rabbit talking about...?

She wanted to discern what he said, but a vine instantly inserted between them and covered them, and then more vines and branches formed a barrier in front of her.

The shock is not over yet, the surrounding environment is gradually changing. The original beautiful rose bushes gradually grow taller until they grow to a height of two or three meters, and they move to other places like children queuing up, until the prototype of a maze After the bushes appeared, the bushes remained still, and the ground stopped shaking.

Because the vibration stopped so suddenly, Alice lost her center of gravity and swayed, and when she was about to fall backwards, a pair of arms caught her.

"Can't even stand upright? What a useless brat." Squalo disdainful.

Father-in-law, Duchess!

The frightened Alice was a little overwhelmed, she stammered and raised her head to thank, "Thank you, thank you..."

Squalo froze for a moment, then let go of his hand unnaturally, "Do you still know the way?"

Alice looked around, then shook her head guiltily, "Sorry..."

He must be scolded by the Duchess again.

"Forget it." He didn't say anything to blame, but just scratched his hair irritably, "In short, look for those two brats first, and then go to the boss." Then he glanced at Alice with her head down, "Hey ! If you lose track, I will leave you! Got it?"

"Yeah, yeah!" She nodded desperately.

Although the Duchess is easy to get angry, she is actually very gentle... Could this be menopause?

Obediently following behind Squalo, Alice hesitated for a moment, stretched out her hand and gently tugged at his lace-covered sleeves, "Well, Duchess, should we leave some marks, wait for Mr. Rabbit? Know our direction?"

Squalo didn't focus on her proposal at all, "What the hell did you just say?!"

Alice thought he was blaming herself for talking too much, so she lowered her head in fright and dared not look at him, "Yes, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to talk!"

He froze for a moment, and finally realized that their focus was not in the same place. He turned around and stared at her fiercely, but his tone was not as fierce as before, "I was asking what you called me?"

"... Duke, Duchess?" She trembled.

"My name is not Duchess!" Squalo gritted his teeth.

"Then...what should I call you?" She tried hard to recall his name, and after a while she said uncertainly, "...Idiot long-haired captain?"

"..." He really wanted to cut that damn brat Fran, "My name is Squalo!"

"Okay, okay! Squalo!" Hearing the anger in his tone, Alice was about to cry.

"If you call me Duchess again, I'll kill you!" Non-violent non-cooperative brat.

"Yes! QAQ"

Squalo nodded, "What did you just say?"

"Well, I think we should leave some marks..." She glanced at him secretly, then quickly lowered her head, "Let Mr. Rabbit and the others know our location?"

"Sign?" He frowned.

Oops, didn't he like her proposal?

Suddenly there was a sound of branches breaking in front of her. She raised her eyes quietly, and saw that Squalo was poking a big hole in the bushes in front with the parasol, and then turned to her and asked, "What kind of tree is this?" ?”

...Suddenly there is a feeling of raising a puppy.

Alice relaxed a little inexplicably, and had the courage to express her opinion, "It's still not obvious enough."

She searched around for something that could be used, her eyes lit up when she saw his sleeve, she quickly stepped forward and raised his hand, "This is it!"

"Huh?" Squalo, who was subconsciously on guard because of her actions, didn't know why.

Alice didn't rush to explain, but lowered her head and tore off a piece of lace from his sleeve, and tied it to the big hole in the bush.

"In this way, Mr. Rabbit and they will know!" She clapped her hands, turned her head to look at Squalo, her eyes were shining, "It's great that you wear this kind of dress!"

Squalo, who was slightly stunned seeing her expression, suddenly darkened when he heard the words that followed.

"Let's keep going?" Perhaps because of her contribution, Alice lost the restraint she had at the beginning and had a smile on her face, but she froze when she saw the back of his hand, "Are you injured?"

The lace of the sleeve was torn off, exposing the wound on the back of his hand, which was bloody and bloody, which looked quite terrifying.

Squalo followed her gaze and looked at the back of his hand, but waved his hand nonchalantly, "This kind of wound will not hinder my movement."

If he made a fuss because of such a small wound, those bastards in Balian would definitely laugh at him severely.

Of course, Alice didn't understand this "Barian life", she pursed her lips, quickly tore her white apron, and then took his hand to wrap the cloth strips on it.

The soft touch from his hand made him stunned for a moment, and he withdrew his hand to prevent her from touching it. His face was a little red, and his voice became louder, "Hey! What are you doing?!"

"Bandage." She gave him a dissatisfied look, "Mr. Squalo, if you don't bandage, the blood from the wound will not stop, it will worsen."

Just like my sister's wrist.

……Huh?Sister's wrist?

Some images were instantly projected in her mind.

The bright red blood, a lot of blood, couldn't stop, forming a thin stream of water, meandering from the bed to the floor.

Alice's eyes widened, but without focus, she looked at Squalo blankly.

He felt something was wrong, "Little brat?"

She did not answer.

Who is lying on the bed...?

"Hey!" Squalo frowned and patted her cheek, "What are you in a daze for?!"

I have to say that his loud voice is still very useful. Alice, who was shocked by his voice, looked at him blankly, and for a moment the face in her mind overlapped with his, "... sister ?”

"Asshole! Who is your sister?!" Squalo's expression was almost distorted.

"...S, Mr. Squalo?" Alice finally saw the person in front of her clearly.

The scene just now...what the hell is it?This scene has appeared before...

Seeing her lowering her head in thought and ignoring him completely, Squalo felt an inexplicable sulking in his heart, and stretched out his hand aggrieved, "Didn't you say you want to bandage?"

"Ah!" She put aside what happened just now, and quickly took his hand, "I'm sorry!"

The strange touch came again, Squalo pursed his lips, and turned his face aside not to look at her.

For some reason, he didn't resist the feeling.

...But if it was that fellow Luslia, he would have already slashed him with a sword.

"Okay!" A beautiful bow was tied on the back of his hand. Alice let go of her hand and nodded in satisfaction. She raised her eyes to see Squalo's tangled face, and asked puzzledly, "Did I hurt you?"

The soft touch disappeared in an instant.

A thought arose in his mind, but the moment he appeared, he was immediately chopped into pieces by the miniature Squalo with his sword.

He turned his head, his voice was louder than before, but a little unnatural, "Hey! Stop dawdling! Go!"

"Okay!" She blinked and followed his footsteps obediently.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Squalo felt inexplicably agitated.

He actually wanted to grab her hand just now.

What a ridiculous idea.

Every time they walked a certain distance, they would stop and leave marks in the nearby bushes, but they still didn't meet Fran and the others when the lace on Squalo's sleeves was used up.

What's worse, their physical strength is almost at the limit, and there is no food around them.

Squalo, who was tangled along the way, glanced at Alice who was tired but did not speak, and stopped, "Here, take a rest."

She nodded, tore the apron on herself, wrapped the cloth strips behind the bushes, and sat down leaning against the bushes.

Very hungry……

There was a sound of bowel movements.

Alice looked up at Squalo, who blushed a bit and stared at her fiercely, "What are you looking at?!"

"No! I didn't see anything!" But she heard it.

Seeing her understanding expression, Squalo gritted his teeth, and just when he was about to growl, a smell of food wafted from not far away.

Why is this smell so familiar?

He frowned, but Alice didn't notice, and tugged at his sleeve, "Mr. Squalo, shall we go and have a look?"

The author has something to say: Babes, guess what that food is _(:з」∠)_ If you guess right, there will be a reward!
