Chapter 1895 Little Butterfly

The vines slowly retreated.

The glass cover inside was revealed.

The blue butterfly is sitting on the blue flower.

It is as beautiful as a painting under the moonlight.

A look of realization appeared on the boy's face.

However, he looked at the strange man in front of him with confusion, and the vigilance in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

"How do you know they are friends?"

"Do you understand what the butterfly says?"

“…Can butterflies talk?”

The boy muttered.

Could it be that this person was caught breaking into a private house and was just finding an excuse to trick him?

He is sixteen, not six.

I am no longer old enough to read fairy tales.

……

"I don't know if butterflies can talk."

Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "But Xiao Lan is not a butterfly."

"Not a butterfly?"

The boy opened his eyes wide.

He subconsciously looked at the butterfly in the glass cover.

Aren't they exactly the same except for the size difference?

……

"It's the same as Xiaoyi."

"how-"

The boy blurted out.

"They are all monsters."

The boy's pupils contracted violently.

"you……"

Then he felt amused at himself for making such a fuss.

He took a deep breath.

The other party knows that Xiaoyi is a youkai...isn't it natural?

Doesn’t the scene he saw when he woke up explain everything?
He slowly closed his mouth.

He was just not used to it.

He had never met anyone like him who could see monsters.

The boy regained his composure.

His eyes fell on the man's fingertips.

A peacock blue butterfly... no, it's a monster shaped like a butterfly.

"That……"

The boy suddenly realized something.
He turned his head and looked at the butterfly that had been on his desk for many days.

Is it a monster too?

"No."

The boy was startled.

Did he just say what was in his heart?

But he didn't care.

"It's not a monster?"

The boy murmured.

Also.

If it was also a monster, how could Xiaoyi not know it?

“It’s a butterfly.”

Xiao Xiao moved his fingers slightly, and Xiao Lan flew up.

Xiao Xiao withdrew his hand.

"Can you please give it to me?"

“My friend is worried about it.”

Xiao Lan stopped beside Xiao Xiao's face.

Hearing this, Xiao Lan nodded.

Ok.

It was very worried about the little butterfly.

……

"Butterflies are not monsters."

Xiao Xiao looked at the glass cover and said, "Their lives are very fragile."

"You keep it locked like this..."

"It will die."

……

“…I originally wanted to make a butterfly specimen.”

The boy's voice was unclear.

Xiao Xiao heard it clearly, "Specimen?"

"You're going to—"

"no!"

As if he knew what the man was going to say next, the boy interrupted him and said, "I didn't intend to kill it."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

He knows this.

Otherwise, this little butterfly would not be in the glass cover now.

"I plan to wait until it dies..."

The boy's voice became weaker and weaker.

Xiao Xiao understood.

"So that's it."

The lifespan of butterflies varies depending on the species.

But the longest will not exceed one year.

That's still a separate species.

The average lifespan of a butterfly is only a week.

The boy wanted to wait for the butterfly to die naturally and then use its body as a specimen.

……

“…This is one of my assignments…”

"I chose to make a butterfly specimen..."

The boy pursed his lips when he realized that he had said a lot.

……"I see."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "But the butterfly that was caught is Xiao Lan's friend..."

"Can you give it back to us?"

……

The boy looked at the butterfly lying on the flower in the glass cover, and then looked at the monster the man called Xiaolan.

Finally, his eyes fell on the man's face.

"You...come here just to save it?"

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao nodded slightly.

……

"……it is good."

The boy stepped aside and made room at the table. "You can take it away."

The parasitic vine monster did not respond.

It seemed as if he agreed with the boy's words.

Xiao Xiao was a little surprised.

But he didn't rush to ask anything.

He walked over to the table.

Xiao Lan flew to the glass cover in a flash.

small butterfly!
Its wings lifted -
"Wait a moment."

Xiao Lan paused and looked at Lord Xiao Xiao in confusion.

"Let me do it."

As he spoke, he had already reached out and lifted up the glass cover.

Xiao Lan didn't know how much force to use, and the falling glass fragments might hurt the little butterfly inside.

……

"small butterfly!"

Xiao Lan rushed to the quietly crouching Butterfly.

……

The little butterfly is really quiet.

"Little butterfly, little butterfly..."

Xiao Lan shouted excitedly.

"Little butterfly, I'm here to save you!"

"Little butterfly, let me tell you, I found a very beautiful flower bed."

"Let's go and see it together..."

“…There is a large field of blue flowers.”

"You like blue the best, right?"

“I like blue, too.”

“But I like other colors, too.”

"Of course, there is no color like the color on me..."

Xiao Lan talked a lot.

……

Xiao Xiao didn't say anything.

Suddenly, as if he realized something, the corners of his mouth curved slightly.

……

Xiao Lan's voice stopped abruptly.

It heard something.

It is the sound of wings flapping and the air vibrating slightly.

……

The butterfly, which was crouching quietly and seemed to be sleeping, slowly flew up.

"small butterfly!"

Xiao Lan yelled.

The joy in the voice made everyone who heard it laugh.

……

"……Feel sorry."

The young man spoke in a low voice.

"Why apologize?"

Xiao Xiao's question left the young man speechless.

He was stumped by the question.

He didn't know why he apologized.

But by the time he reacted, he had already said so.

Xiao Xiao smiled.

What did this boy do wrong?
He just wanted to finish his homework.

He didn't even kill a butterfly in order to complete the specimen as quickly as possible. Instead, he kept the butterfly well and planned to wait for it to die naturally before making the specimen.

What I didn't expect was that this butterfly had a monster friend...

Then I witnessed this scene.

The young man couldn't help feeling guilty.

……

Xiao Xiao's eyes fell on the vines on the boy's body.

The boy at this moment looked very similar to the child in his memory.

But they are completely different.

That child… when he saw him, he looked pale, thin, and uneasy, with despair in his eyes.

But this boy is different.

There was nothing unusual in his expression.

The vines on his body seemed just ordinary vines to him.

And this monster next to the boy...seemed to be as quiet as an ordinary vine.

……

"Little one..."

Xiao Xiao's words made the boy look away from Little Butterfly and Little Lan.

The vigilance that had disappeared before reappeared a little.

He took a step back slightly.

He looked at Xiao Xiao with wide eyes, as if asking what happened to Xiaoyi?
……

"Do you know what kind of monster Xiaoyi is?"

Xiao Xiao's words puzzled the young man.
