Chapter 48 The Sleeping Girl

Xiao Xiao put his hands in his coat pockets, lowered his eyes slightly, and looked at the eared mouse that was squatting three steps away from him, looking particularly well-behaved.

"Tsk~" How could a monster be well-behaved? Did he not get enough sleep last night?
I mean, even if you want to act nice, at least keep those creepy eyes of yours to a minimum. Xiao Xiao couldn't help but complain in his heart, but the lines on his face became even tighter.

Obviously, the ear mouse's obedient actions did not make Xiao Xiao feel relaxed, but made him even more alert.

It is definitely a big trouble to make a monster that has been so arrogant and looks down on everyone since the first meeting be so "compromising". Even it finds this matter difficult. Xiao Xiao has always been very self-aware and really feels that he can't be of any help.

But now that we’re here, it’s not right to just turn around and leave, right?

Besides, if this eared mouse kept following him, he would be very troubled.

So, after realizing that he had no choice, Xiao Xiao was silent for a moment, then he quickly cheered up and decided to make a quick decision.

"Is there anything you can do for me?"

The ear mouse's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded with a bit of reserve.

What a proud guy. Xiao Xiao couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly. He dared to be so arrogant even when he needed help from others.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Xiao felt stupid after saying that. The ear mouse was not a duck, and it couldn't speak human language. The problem was that he didn't understand the monster language either.

Just when Xiao Xiao was still struggling, the ear mouse stood up and came to Xiao Xiao, wrapped its fluffy and soft tail around Xiao Xiao's calf and tugged, motioning Xiao Xiao to follow it.

Okay, Xiao Xiao hesitated for a moment and decided to go and take a look.

In fact, he was somewhat, no, very curious about the fact that this monster could actually come to humans for help.

Even though he still knew a lot about monsters, he still knew how difficult it would be to make a monster bow to humans and show weakness or even flattery.

That matter should be extremely important to the ear mouse, right?
Xiao Xiao made random guesses while following the ear mouse around the campus.

The ear mouse was obviously taking care of his speed, and would look back from time to time to confirm whether Xiao Xiao was still following it well.

It was not until this moment that the ear mouse showed some impatience.

Since Xiao Xiao decided to go and take a look, he would not hesitate. Seeing this, he quickened his pace and even ran slightly.

……

Huh? Xiao Xiao was surprised to find that he had lost the ear mouse.

But he didn't care, because the ear mouse would come to him anyway.

Of course, it would be better if he didn’t come, he would just pretend nothing happened.

Where is this? Xiao Xiao looked around and raised his eyebrows in surprise. It really was a familiar place.

At the beginning of the school year, Xiao Xiao and his friends came to this place by chance when they were walking around the campus.

But because the door was locked, they could only admire the colorful flowers inside through the glass.

Later on, they never came again. After all, they were not little girls who liked flowers and plants.

That's right, this is a glass greenhouse.

It was still as beautiful as the first time he saw it. The colorful flowers inside looked even more precious in this world of ice and snow. It was like a paradise, a world of its own, unaffected by the wind, frost, rain and snow of the outside world.

"Click~" In the silent environment, this sound actually had a somewhat deafening effect. Xiao Xiao turned his head suddenly and found with some horror that the glass door of the greenhouse actually opened by itself? !

It was not until the Ear Mouse came to his feet and nudged him a few times that he realized it was the Ear Mouse that opened the door.

……

Xiao Xiao followed Ear Mouse and stepped into the door of the greenhouse.

There is an inexplicable feeling of tension.

Noticing his heartbeat gradually accelerating, Xiao Xiao felt that he was still too naive and was already a little uneasy over such a small thing.

Xiao Xiao pursed his lips and looked inside the greenhouse.

Rather than looking at it from the outside, you can appreciate the beauty of the flowers better by entering it in person.

Clusters and clusters of brightly colored flowers with full shapes and gorgeous looks show that they are obviously well cared for.

Xiao Xiao took a deep breath, and his air was filled with the rich floral scent, which was not strong to the point of being cloying, but rather elegant and refreshing.

This is really a great place to relax.

The expression on Xiao Xiao's face softened slightly.

At the end of the flower room, the ear mouse stopped. Xiao Xiao withdrew his gaze from the surrounding flowers, looked forward, and was stunned.

……

A young girl was sleeping on the recliner in front, with her hands clasped on her abdomen and a colorful blanket covering her below the waist.

The fluffy and natural wavy hair was scattered on the body, with a slight chestnut color.

The girl's thin cheeks make her look more delicate, and she has a cool temperament, which is very charming.

The girl's eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her long eyelashes were like butterfly wings, trembling slightly and casting a light shadow.

The straight nose and light-colored lips seemed to suggest that the girl was not in good health.

But no matter what, she is really an elf-like girl.

……

Xiao Xiao quietly admired the beautiful scenery in front of him for a while. After all, everyone loves beauty.

Xiao Xiao, who had no awareness of peeping at other girls, did not forget to express his feelings: What a beauty!

But, the elf girl in the flower room? What is this about?

Xiao Xiao withdrew his gaze reluctantly and finally thought of the main business.

Turning his eyes, he saw the Ear Mouse squatting beside the recliner, and instantly realized that this girl was the one that the Ear Mouse was asking for help.

However, the girl was sleeping so soundly that she showed no signs of waking up even after the stranger had been in for so long.

Maybe it was because he knew the door of the greenhouse was locked? After all, not everyone could have a monster to help open the door like Xiao Xiao.

……

Since this girl was the key, Xiao Xiao's gaze shifted back to the girl, but this time, it was not pure appreciation, but a look of scrutiny and examination.

Xiao Xiao quietly took a few steps forward and bent down. Even at such a close distance, the girl's face was still flawless, as smooth and translucent as the finest white jade. The only shortcoming was that it lacked a little blood color.

Hmm? Xiao Xiao twitched his nose and moved closer.

The scent of the girl is cool and elegant, like lotus and orchid, clean and ethereal.

However, there seemed to be some other flavor mixed in.

this taste
Xiao Xiao understood instantly that it was a demonic aura.

Xiao Xiao was a little surprised, but then he felt it was natural.

Of course it was a demonic aura. It was obvious that Ear Mouse had asked him for help with something related to demons. He had vaguely guessed about this before, and now, it was confirmed.

However, the smell of this evil spirit actually made him feel... somewhat familiar? Xiao Xiao frowned a little.

Could it be the monster he had seen?
As things have developed to this point, everything has become clear. The discordant smell on the girl is evil.

And it was the evil aura of the monster that Xiao Xiao knew.

Of course, if it wasn’t for the ear mouse, Xiao Xiao would not make such a low-level mistake.

So, which monster could it be?

Xiao Xiao carefully recalled the monsters he had seen and their demonic aura.

No.

Qin Yuan? No.

Spotted owl? Ghost owl? Obviously not.

Duck? Even less likely.

Gu Diao? Impossible? It wasn't eaten by the duck, so is there another one?
This possibility is not impossible, but it is very small.

Monsters are born and raised, but they have no sense of tribe and a strong sense of territory. Logically speaking, it is unlikely that there will be two monsters of the same kind in the same place.

So, what other monsters has he seen?
Xiao Xiao was thinking hard, scratching his head in his heart, but his face showed a calm and thoughtful look.

There was just a deep wrinkle between his brows, revealing a hint of doubt.

Wait, there's another one!
