Lotus Twin Soul

Chapter 31 Deserted Island (2)

I walked back with a bunch of wild fruits in my hands, humming a 'nursery rhyme' in my mouth, feeling very happy.No wonder others say to be close to nature, close to nature, it is true, the power of nature can make people feel happy.

Seeing that the sun is almost at night in the afternoon, I don't know if the old man will go crazy when he goes back.When he was about to approach the thatched cottage, my brother suddenly said, "Wait a minute, there seems to be someone."

"Where is it? Where is it?" I looked around, but I couldn't see where the person my brother said was.

"What can you see, you idiot~" The elder brother controlled his body and hid behind a tree, looking in the direction of the thatched cottage.

It turned out that there was really someone, a middle-aged man in a suit, standing at the door of the thatched cottage as if he was talking to the inside.There seemed to be a few followers like his subordinates standing behind him.After a while, the middle-aged man looked helpless and angry, waved his hand vigorously, turned around and left.

When I came to the door of the hut, I took a closer look at the road that the man left. There was no one there, and he walked fast enough.

"Old man, I picked the wild fruit back." I shouted.

"Come in." A voice came from inside the house.

When I opened the door, I saw the old man sitting on the hay with a sad expression on his face. I put the wild fruit on the ground, and when I looked up, the old man kept staring at me.

I looked myself over and asked carefully: "I, what's wrong?"

The old man's eyes moved to mine, and he looked at me. I was so guilty that I was scratching my head.

Finally, the old man averted his eyes, picked up a wild fruit from the ground, and began to bite into it without wiping it off.

I stood aside and breathed a sigh of relief, leaning against the door and looking around boredly.To be honest, I admire this old man for surviving in this place. Although there is water and wild fruits, at night there must be snakes, insects, rats and ants everywhere.Needless to say, this is the case with the mountains and forests.

"What do you think of Devil City?" the old man suddenly asked.

"What?" I looked at him, but didn't hear clearly.He didn’t repeat himself and continued to eat. It took me a while to realize that he was asking me how Ziying High School was. I said casually, “Oh, it’s okay.”

The old man stopped eating the wild fruit, threw the half-eaten wild fruit aside, looked at me and asked, "Did you know that Ziying High School is called Devil City?"

My heart suddenly skipped a beat. I actually forgot that most people don't know the name Devil City, and it's impossible for the group leader of the student union to know.I froze in place and dared not move.

"I heard about it by accident." My brother helped me round it, and I breathed a sigh of relief and felt that this old man was too dangerous.

The old man stood up leaning on the tree trunk, walked towards me tremblingly, looked me up and said, "Do you have two souls? Or..."

My heart skipped a beat, I couldn't stand still, and looked at him in amazement.The elder brother quickly controlled his body and pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What two souls? What are you talking about?"

The old man laughed twice, "Do you really think I don't know? The look in your eyes just now said everything."

My brother replied calmly, "I don't know what you are talking about."

"What do you two think of Devil City? I want to know this." The old man went back to his original place and sat down, his eyes were blocked without revealing any emotions.

Two... It seems that the old man has already confirmed it, and it is meaningless to say more.

The elder brother hesitated for a while and asked, "Who are you and why are you here? You also know about Devil City."

The old man picked up another wild fruit and said, "I am the 334th generation principal of Devil City, and I was imprisoned here by the central figure of Devil City." After speaking, the old man began to eat the wild fruit, as if he had become indifferent to his brother.

My brother bowed his head and didn't know what he was thinking. Anyway, I was only shocked in my heart. The acting principal of 334, why was he locked up here?Or was it closed by the central character?mean what?have no idea……

The elder brother hadn't spoken yet, but the old man had already eaten all the wild fruits. He brushed his white and dirty beard with his hand, and he stood up, pointed to the opposite place and said, "If you want to live here, then Just sleep on the opposite side, and be my handyman, don't run around after dark, if you want to find hay by yourself, don't touch me." After saying that, the old man walked towards the door.

When he walked up to his elder brother, who was still standing there in a daze, the old man stretched out his hand and pushed his elder brother away. He walked out and disappeared into the jungle.

"Brother, this old man..." I didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry, he doesn't mean to hurt us, but we are a little too defensive." The elder brother smacked his lips, and then went out to find hay.

"Brother, why do you think this old man is locked up here as the principal?" I asked curiously.

The elder brother pulled the hay on the ground, and said helplessly: "How can I know so much, you bastard can't help to clean up the hay? Why are there so many problems? I will know everything in the future. There is still half a month, half a month. We have to go back in a month."

I laughed twice and said, "Okay, I'll pack the hay." After I finished speaking, I pretended to control my body, but I knew that my brother would never let me come.

The elder brother laughed twice and said: "Come on, I don't know about you, so just stay honest."

"I know that brother understands my heart best, hehe." I calmly enjoyed my brother's pampering, but I was still concerned about my parents who didn't know where they were.

The elder brother walked back with a pile of hay, and said helplessly as he walked, "I knew you little bastard didn't intend to reach out at all."

I hummed twice, neither denying nor confirming.

Spread dry hay on the ground and sleep comfortably at night.The old man hasn't come back yet, and I don't know where he went. I'm afraid that the old man will be picked up by wild beasts.

When it was completely dark that day, I felt a little cold, maybe the climate on the island is different from that of Ziying High School.I didn't dare to light a bonfire. If the old man really came back and saw the house was burned, he would have to fight me desperately.It's not easy for people to be so old, so just leave a thatched cottage to them.

"Brother, won't this old man be picked up by wild beasts?" I asked, playing with a piece of hay in my hand.

My brother shook his head, paused, and said, "I don't think it's possible. I feel that although the old man looks weak, he is full of spirit. I don't know if I can beat him in a fight."

"Isn't it? That old man is so powerful?" I exclaimed in surprise.

"Who knows." My brother shook his head, patted me and said, "Sleep, maybe the old man will come back when he wakes up."

I murmured, "It's none of my business whether he comes back or not."

"The old man knows a lot, so let's look forward to his return."

the next day……

I woke up in the morning to the call of birds and flowers. Fortunately, no insects bit me at night. When I woke up, there was still no one in the hut.

"Brother?" I called out tentatively, because I knew that my brother would wake up earlier than me every day.

"Are you awake?" Brother asked softly.

"Well, hasn't the old man come back yet?" I asked muttering.

"No, let's go out and look for it later, I hope nothing happens to him." My brother was also a little worried in his tone.

Just as I was talking, an old voice came from the door, "Don't worry about my old bones, they are still strong."

I hurriedly got up and looked towards the door. The old man walked in tremblingly leaning on the tree trunk, and seemed to be holding something in his hand.

"Good morning old man~" I greeted him with a smile, and greeted him with my usual sugar-coated cannonballs.

The old man walked over, and I could clearly see what he was holding. It was a very disgusting toad, and it croaked twice. It made me want to throw up.

"Are you awake?" The old man seemed to be smiling, but he couldn't see clearly, his beard was too thick.

I smiled and nodded and said: "You didn't come back last night, I was worried all night, and I was planning to go out and look for it just now." Seeing how nice our words are, I promise to please the old man.

Unexpectedly, the old man burst out laughing, and scolded while laughing, "You bastard worried about me? Don't think I don't know anything. It's another soul in your body who really worries about me, right?"

I froze immediately, this old man is too smart to even know this.Now that he knows, it's pointless for me to pretend anymore, so I simply stood up and asked, "What is this in your hand?" It's so disgusting.Of course, the latter sentence is what I thought, and I dare not say it.

The old man sighed, sat directly on my hay and said, "It's not for you, it took me a lot of painstaking efforts to find this thing."

"For me?" I sat down with a bitter face, thinking to myself that this old man is too capable, why is it just for me, what did I beg him for?Could it be that my brother begged him for something when I didn't know?

"Brother?" I asked suspiciously.

"It's not me, I woke up and slept with you." My brother hurriedly clarified.

The old man turned his head and stared at me. I could imagine the astonishment in his eyes. People who saw me and my brother talking like this had this expression, and I was used to it.

It took a while for the old man to recover, but if I knew what he was going to say, I hope he didn't respond. He laughed twice, grabbed the toad in his hand and said, "Eat it."

"What?" I exclaimed in surprise, ate it?I'd rather die than eat something so disgusting.

"Then let your other soul eat it." The old man said.

The elder brother might have also froze when he heard this, and there was no movement for a long time, which is good, he hid.

The old man chuckled twice, looked at the toad himself, and probably understood that it was disgusting.Frowning, he asked, "Do you hate Devil City?"

I shook my head and said, "I don't hate it, I just want to live a normal life, and we plan to leave after saving my parents."

The old man gave a meaningful 'oh~', "Can you ask your brother to come out and have a chat?" the old man asked.

"Speak." My brother said suddenly.My teeth are itching with hatred, now that I have come out, where did I hide just now, what if the old man forcefully stuffed a toad into my mouth.

The old man asked, "What do you think of Devil City?"

"My whole existence is only for my younger brother. As long as he is well, I know you know a lot of things. I hope our confession will also allow you to tell us the truth." My brother's cold voice came out, and my heart was sour. Yes, it is also sweet.
