[Liai] Trapped beast

, but he didn't seem to feel the pain, allowing the inexplicable sense of trance to slowly magnify.

In the bewildered rain, he seemed to... saw that wolf-like boy.

The young man pursed his lips and remained silent, with tears in his eyes, but he stubbornly opened his eyes wide and kept looking at him. The shattered sadness quietly permeated his face, his amber eyes trembled, and there was a faint light inexplicably. Feeling sad, as if in the blink of an eye, I was afraid that I would never see him again...

That was the first time the boy shed tears for him...

The young man always looked at him, from a distance, silently... Under the firelight, the amber eyes that were infinitely close to transparency were filled only with his figure, and there was also some indescribable nostalgia, he couldn't help it. For a long time, I wanted to guess the deep emotions hidden behind those eyes, but I was confused by those eyes after looking at them.

The boy cried again, and was kicked until he was almost breathless, the person who tightly clutched his broken arm, curled up his body but stubbornly buried his head and didn't want to look at him anymore... What was he thinking?

There was darkness around him, and he couldn't help but want to reach out and touch the darkness... The stubborn figure of the man held him tightly and firmly, but suddenly, there was a frightening pain in his chest, and his whole body As if being hit by this terrified thunder and lightning, his whole body was shaken, but the young man in front of him began to gradually blur...

The man's brows that were already tightly knit revealed a trace of imperceptible sadness. He resisted extremely, but still opened his eyes uncontrollably.

He had fallen deeply from a high place, and the raincoat fell off because of this, and the cables that had been launched from his waist had caught the giant trees on both sides in good time.

He allowed the belts all over his body to bear his own weight, and lay quietly in the air. On his hanging right arm, black blood dripped from the loose bandage inside. His face was ashen, as cold as if he had already died once. Let more cold raindrops hit his temperatureless face.

The long silence, the drowsiness of the trance disappeared, leaving only the endless night that continued.

Levi raised his face in the icy rain, the place where the belt was strangled all over his body was like a ruptured scar, and in the howling cold wind, he still suffered from indelible pain.

He suddenly lost all sleepiness, but his nerves seemed to be oppressed by the night and could not wake up for a long time. He moved his left arm slowly, and his deep black eyes looked through the towering giant trees for a moment. The rising sky, as if wanting to break through the heavy shackles, raised his left hand high...

It was very much like that silent dream, the tightly clenched fists only caught back the surging pain.

two days and two nights...

He can't be found anymore.

Reason has urged him many times—the brat is dead, but he can't stop.

He had never looked for someone so recklessly, and he didn't even leave a way out for survival.

It's been... It hasn't been like this for a long time. This kind of pain feels like his heart is being hollowed out, and his body is about to be torn apart. He almost thought that he had already numb the pain on the cruel battlefield...

The cold eyes full of rain were locked on the raised arm, the loose fist, and the momentary relaxation of the fingertips, making the man look like a dead man imprisoned in a predicament and desperately pursuing hope.

A bird chirping from far to near seemed to tear apart the gloomy night.

Levi seemed to see a piece of white in the night sky through his fingertips, like a piece of paper flying in the strong wind, and the rain soaked its wings, but the pure white soaring through was stubbornly piercing. hurt his eyes.

That's not a bird that would be entrenched in this kind of forest...

【"Levi, do you know what this is?"】

【"Oh, what a big eagle."】The 12-year-old kid stared at the pure white giant bird with a pair of dead fish eyes.

【"What eagle...it's a white falcon!"】

【"...What are you talking about? Repeat it to me right away."】The little devil folded his arms and was no taller than a wooden table. He frowned, as if he had the aura of a little devil.

People who have lived in the underground street since childhood don't know a few big characters at all.

The woman didn't care about these things, she squatted down patiently, and pinched the stinky face that the little devil was putting on all day long.

【"It's a falcon, I heard that good things will happen when you see this kind of bird. Once the white falcon has a sympathetic heart with its master, it can even understand the thoughts and feelings of the master. So, you must treat it kindly. It will lead happiness to us poor people.”]

It turned out to be it...

——That Evil guy...!

He rolled all over, the retracting cable firing again, and the few remaining jets humming.

In the dark eyes, only the beautiful white bird remained, its soaring wings were washed by the rain, and its flying speed was not as good as before, but the movement of flapping its wings was like a standing phoenix.

Wings longer than an eagle, sprinting and flying faster than any bird, flying firmly across the dense rain, detouring under the thunder of lightning and thunder.

The speed at which the man followed could be said to be full of horsepower, as if a small hurricane had blown in the forest. His high-speed black shadow avoided the dangerous giant and passed through the obstructed leaves. The cable suddenly shrank and pulled, The flying body is like wings soaring in the sky.

Unrestrained indulgence, unrestrained catharsis.

The white falcon crossed the undulating sea of ​​trees, flew over the heads of countless giants, and after arriving at the southeast end of the dense forest against the mountain, it couldn't go circling.

As soon as Levi landed on the ground, it seemed to be leading the man to continue to fly to a deeper canyon, and finally in front of a hole in a rock group, it retracted its wings and landed firmly on Levi's body on the left arm.

The man stroked its little head, which seemed to be a familiar intimate behavior, and the white falcon chirped a few times as if obediently responding.

Levi was a little surprised. Since her death, this white falcon has been adopted as Ewell's private interest. How could it find it here now?

Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly found a small bamboo tube delicately fixed on the hooked paw of the white falcon. Levi seemed to understand something, and immediately pulled out the secret letter hidden in it, but before he could take a second look, The white falcon fluttered its wings and circled around the entrance of the cave several times, making a pleasant "chirp" sound continuously, as if anxiously urging him.

There was an unbearable stench in the surrounding area. The cave in front of me should have been eroded by the river in the canyon. On the muddy and wet ground, traces of bloodstains can still be seen. The cave is not deep, like this kind of weird The entrance of the cave is not easily approached by ordinary people. There are groups of wolves living in the caves in the wild all year round.

Wolf……?

For a moment, there seemed to be a thread deep in his heart being straightened forcefully, guiding Levi to walk several steps cautiously inwardly.

He couldn't confirm it, but a passage that Ewell once said suddenly echoed in his ears. Bai Falcon was born with super high speed and agility, had a very wide field of vision, and was very persuasive... Levi at that time, for These scoffed.

However, on the ground, that straight bloodstain seemed to be silently proving something. It was shocking, extending from the outside to the deepest part of the inside, as if...someone dragged half of his body and crawled through here...

There was something rotten, unusually pungent, in the dark... He seemed to really see it...

There is a pair of golden pupils covered with tears, in the deepest part of the cave, staring frantically and horrified at every move outside.

015

The moment he raised his eyes, he actually saw... saw that boy.

The air was filled with a damp and musty smell unique to caves, faintly, except for a few intermittent rat squeaks from the corner, there was also a heavy panting like a wild animal.

Like the pair of amber eyes distorted in the darkness, they trembled like candles that could be extinguished at any time.

Suddenly, some kind of indescribable emotion surged in his heart, as if it was a kind of mourning continuously spreading out of his body. The mournful one was crying something, the heartbroken one was shouting something, but he was stunned. Looking into the deepest part of those eyes, as if losing his soul, he stubbornly could only count the heartbeat resounding in his ears, what kind of emotion he was shouting...

It turns out that the boy is not dead, really not dead...

Just like that night, under the darkness, the familiar figure was curled up in the innermost corner of the cave, the gust of wind flowing outside the cave was howling and raging, the broken sound was like the howling of ghosts and wolves, and the frantic one was like the wailing of a teenager who kept crying.

Yes, he cried again...

Faintly, those two lines of desperate tears distorted his beautiful eyes, and his lonely figure trembled non-stop under the roar of the wind.

Levi also trembled uncontrollably with his fingers, and the intense emotions rolled in his body for a moment. When his sanity was on the verge of collapse, he strode towards the boy quickly.

However, as the distance approached, his pupils, which were used to the darkness, suddenly constricted violently, and his steps were immediately deterred by the cold air pouring from the soles of his feet, and he stopped suddenly.

The cave... smells of death.

In the clear vision one after another, except for the place where the boy lived, there were corpses of squirrels, mice, foxes, and sparrows scattered on the ground, all of which showed signs of being bitten by teeth without exception. The rift was filled with surging black blood, and the scarlet viscera torn out from inside was involved, giving off an incomparably nauseating smell.

Hot and rainy days are particularly sweltering, and tides in caves
