Sean found only a box of yogurt in his empty refrigerator and fed it to Queenie.Talk is better than nothing.Most importantly, if you don’t eat this, you really can only eat canned cat food.

Queenie didn't mind and ate happily.Although feeding her canned cat food would probably have the same effect.

After all, she is still a little devil who has never seen anything in the world.

After drinking the yogurt, Queenie fell asleep on the sofa, and they were even talking a second ago.

Sean stood in front of the sofa and looked at her helplessly, took the empty yogurt box from her hand, and threw it into the trash can.Then go back to the front of the sofa.

After a while, he softly called her name.No response was received.

He turned around the room aimlessly, and returned to the sofa again.

After standing helplessly for a while, Sean slowly stretched out his hand, tentatively trying to hug her from the sofa to the mattress like a clumsy child.

His sofa is too small, it must be uncomfortable to sleep on.But he tried several times without success, and he dared not even touch the tip of her hair with his fingertips.

Finally, he gave up and covered her with the only quilt on his bed.

This night, Sean lay on the mattress with clear and sober eyes again, but his eyes no longer stared at the ceiling, but slipped to the direction of the sofa from time to time.

Now that the person on the sofa was sleeping soundly, his gaze could finally rest on her unhindered.

Sean knows that he is an autistic patient, his brain's way of thinking is different from others, and he lacks many emotions of ordinary people.But that doesn't mean he doesn't know how to distinguish good things.

Queenie is beautiful.She was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen.During the period when she was "ill" in the hospital, he heard colleagues in the hospital talking about her beauty more than once.

At that time, he thought more about how to wake her up.

Then she did wake up, and, she seemed to... like him.

Sean is actually extremely sensitive to this kind of affection, because what he has encountered most since he was a child is ridicule, disgust and impatience from others, even from his parents.

Sean didn't know why Queenie liked him, but he knew that he was very happy.

The icy moonlight shone through the cracks in the curtains.The person on the sofa was in a deep sleep, and her hair scattered on her shoulders seemed to emit a warm golden shimmer in the dark bedroom.

Sean gently stroked the toy scalpel in his hand.It was a gift from his brother Steve, who had always protected him and tried to teach him how to live and grow.

The golden light was like a slowly flowing tide, slowly spreading around, and finally wrapped him up.

Sean blinked lightly, and his slender eyelashes slowly closed.

This night, Sean thought he would definitely not be able to fall asleep, but when the alarm clock rang suddenly, he found that he not only fell asleep, but also slept well, without a dream all night.

Then Sean sensed something was wrong.

His eyes slowly descended.

First, he saw a golden head leaning against his arm, with a quiet and satisfied expression on his face.

She slept very well, lying quietly beside him.

She said he resembled the cat, but Sean thought she resembled him, especially now as a docile cat curled up on all fours.Makes me want to touch her hair.

Sean's finger just moved, and was immediately held down by his other rational hand.

He got up quietly without disturbing the people next to him.

After Sean finished washing and came out of the bathroom, he found that the mattress was empty, and the bedroom was also empty.

His heart was also empty, and he stopped in the middle of the room blankly.

"Will it come back?"

A voice suddenly came from the side.

Sean suddenly looked up.

Seeing Queenie slowly coming in from the balcony, her blond hair was long to her waist, and Claire's coat was a bit too wide for her, which made her limbs look more slender.The rising dawn shrouded her behind, making it hard to tell whether the light came from the sun or from herself.

Sean looked at her.

Queenie stopped in front of him and tilted her head to look at him: "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing," Sean said.It's just that he thought she was gone.

Thinking of her question just now, she asked, "What did you just say?"

Queenie said, "That cat, will it come back?"

Sean nodded, "It should. It used to come a lot."

But Dr. Murphy didn't know that no one scared it at that time, and there were canned cats to eat.

Sean looked at the time: "I should go to the hospital."

He goes out at a fixed time every day, takes the bus, and goes to work in the hospital.

Queenie asked, "Can't I go with you?"

Sean thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible..."

Queenie immediately took his hand happily: "Then let's go."

Sean doesn't like being touched, but let her pull.

Walking to the door, Sean finally remembered something, and looked at her bare feet in embarrassment.

Queenie asked, "What's wrong?"

Sean said, "I think you should put on your shoes."

Queenie said, "I don't mind my feet."

As he spoke, he raised one foot to show him.

Sean's long eyelashes drooped and he looked away.He didn't know how to make it clear to her, but he just said, "I think you should put on your shoes."

Queenie looked at him and said, "Okay."

The two came to a nearby apartment, which was the apartment that Queenie had sublet to her by Mr. Harden and Mr. James.

Queenie pushed open the door, found the shoes inside, and put them on very unskillfully.

Sean followed her in, only to find that her house was even more "derelict" than his house. It was empty, without a single piece of furniture—really, there was nothing, not even a bed to sleep on.

Sean asked, "Why is there nothing here?"

Queenie shrugged her small shoulders: "I don't like their smell, so I threw them away."

Sean blinked in surprise.

Queenie stomped her feet unaccustomedly and said, "I'm fine."

Sean looked down, saw the laces of her two shoes scattered on the ground, and reminded her: "Your laces are not tied."

Queenie looked at his shoes, and then at her own. They seemed to be different, so she bent down and pulled the long and short shoelaces.

Sean watched her gossip.

"That's not the case." He knelt down, took the shoelace from her hand, and carefully tied it for her.

He suddenly remembered that when he was a child, Steve squatted in front of him like this, helping him tie his shoelaces.

Queenie stood up, looked at the top of his head, and suddenly felt a strange feeling in her heart.

On the bus to the hospital, Queenie fell asleep again, her little golden head resting on Sean's shoulder, the sun shone through the window, her porcelain-white side face was almost transparent.A few strands of that blond hair were blown by the wind and caressed on his neck and chin, itching.

Sean sat upright, not daring to move.

The moment the car came to a stop, she also woke up.

The sky was blue and cloudless, and Queenie and Sean walked into St. Bonaventure Hospital together.

A heart patient came to the hospital today, a child from a distant African tribe.Sean is going to examine a patient with Dr. Melendez.

Sean changed into a doctor's uniform, and Queenie looked at him and said, "You look good in that."

In the last few days when she fell asleep, he came to see her in the ward every day, and he wore this dress.

Sean didn't look at her, and said quickly: "I noticed that you slept a little too much. Although considering that you just woke up and your body is still in the adaptation period, your condition is a bit abnormal. You fell asleep while we were talking last night. Yes, it was the same on the bus just now."

Sean heard his own voice slip out of his mouth smoothly, as if it didn't need to pass through his brain.His eyes would look at her face uncontrollably, but he didn't dare to stay, and he would leave immediately when he almost touched her eyes.

Finally he said, "I think you need to do some further testing."

That's why he asked her to come to the hospital with him today.

Queenie said: "I'm fine, I don't need a test, it's just a matter of getting used to it."

After all, I have slept on and off for more than 1000 years.

Sean looked at her for a while and said, "OK."

Just turned around and left with Melendez and Jared.

Sean has been busy for a long time, and Queenie is not bored sitting on the bench and waiting.

The hospital is crowded, and she can hear and even see everything that is happening around her if she wants to.

Human beings will suffer from many strange diseases, and they are extremely fragile. They will be injured by various accidents at every turn, and even if they are not injured, they will continue to approach death due to aging.All kinds of intricate relationships and emotions among human beings can be seen here.Although there were some things she didn't understand, she was very happy to eavesdrop and watch.

Of course, she will know in the future that not only human beings, but also the relationship between gods, gods and demons in their family is even more intricate and unbelievable.

After an unknown amount of time, Queenie was watching a family drama about an old man's critical illness, when a terrified voice suddenly rang in her ears.

Queenie looked up, and a black woman with a strange hat wrapped around her head stopped in front of her, and she was the one who made the voice just now.

The woman pointed at her in horror and shouted, "The devil! No, the devil, you can't take him! You can't take my child!"

The woman's lips trembled, she could hardly stand, and she stared at Queenie with all her heart and soul.

Queenie didn't move or speak, with a calm expression on her face.In contrast, her calm was almost indifferent.She was indeed indifferent in her heart, and even a little curious.The man actually saw that she was not human.

The woman was already crying and knelt down in front of her, muttering in her mouth: "Please let his soul go, he is just a child, if you need someone to serve, please take my soul..." Stretch out your hands, wanting to touch her feet.

Queenie ducked.Because she can't understand ordinary human emotions, the pleading and tears of a woman can't arouse any waves for her.

After confirming that the woman in front of her would not be able to regain her senses for a while, Queenie finally said, "I will not take your child, and I don't need your soul." Her voice was low and light.

The woman is like a death row prisoner who has been released, her whole body relaxes, as if she has received the most powerful and reliable guarantee in the world.She prostrated herself devoutly, touching her forehead to the ground.

Queenie couldn't understand what the person in front of her was doing, she raised her head, only then did she realize that Sean was standing not far away.

Not only Sean, but also Melendez, Jared and Claire by his side.In front of them was a black child in a wheelchair.

Everyone looked at her silently...

The author has something to say: Queenie: I am not a devil, but a devil.Not yet succeeded.

A certain king of hell: ...is he about to be usurped?
