Use foreign lands to conquer the whole of Europe

Chapter 131 130: [Forgotten Box Garden] Committing crimes against the wind

Angie remembered what happened to Bryn very clearly.

She knew that in this Norson village, if she did something strange, it would easily lead to death.

But for some reason, Angie was not very scared, and even wanted to do a bold but normal thing—let her sister wipe her body clean with water.

Although Father Cesar expressly forbids this behavior, she always has a faint worry:

If Elena's condition continues to deteriorate, will something irreversible happen?

Today is the third day they have come to this foreign land, but the three of them still have no idea how to leave the foreign land.

During this time, Angie thought about the most questions:

What is the core of this alien world?
With Brin's death, the only obvious "plot" left on Angie's side is Elena's condition.Although the villagers of Noelson Village were not necessarily formed by a curse, but putting aside these moral and ethical issues, Angie is still used to substituting his past experience in the game into the current situation.

The more realistic the plot game is, the more routes there will be.It may be some key options that determine the direction of the plot, or it may be the survival status of some NPCs-if Elena's condition continues to deteriorate and eventually leads to her death, will this have a major impact on them?
The most frightening thing is that there is no chance of trial and error in this "dungeon" that is played with their lives. Even if they only take one wrong step, they may never be able to leave here again.

Whether he died in obscurity or died unjustly like Brin, these endings are unacceptable to Angie.Out of prudent considerations, as an older sister, she should naturally be more concerned about Elena's situation.

Although these thoughts may also be justified excuses she made for "wanting to save this innocent girl".

After thinking wildly, Susanna carefully avoided her mother and quietly walked into the bedroom with water.

She closed the door immediately, put the water basin on the wooden floor with a rotten smell, gently shook Elena who was lying on the bed, and whispered:

"Elena, wake up."

Amidst the stench and pain, Elena did not sleep soundly.She slowly opened her eyes, looked at Susanna in a daze, and muttered inarticulately:

"What's wrong……"

"Hush~ Be quiet," Suzanne said with a mysterious smile, "You were splashed with holy water just now, you must not feel very comfortable? Although my mother won't let me change your clothes and sheets, but just wipe your body , they won't find out."

Elena listened, but her expression became a little confused.

She tried to get up, but accidentally pulled the wound on her leg, grinning in pain.

Susanna hurried forward to hold her back, and then heard the other party hesitate and say:

"...Can I still call you sister?"

"Please be sure to say that," Angie smiled wryly, "otherwise I should be arrested by the church."

"I, I won't tell the church," Elena quickly explained, looking up at Susanna, but her tone suddenly became lower, "But... where did sister go?"

"Sorry, I don't know either."

"Then, will she come back?" There was hope in the girl's eyes.

"……sorry, I do not know."

Elena's eyes darkened.

She stared blankly at Anji, lowered her head slowly, and pursed her lips tightly, as if trying to hold back her crying.

Angie looked at her silently, and spoke again after a while: "Although I also want to give you time to digest your emotions, if my mother finds out that I came in with water, you may not have a chance to wipe your body—— You don't want to be stained with these strange smelly liquids, do you?"

"……okay."

Perhaps it was because she knew that the other party was not her sister, this normally self-willed girl suddenly became well-behaved.

With Anji's support, she reluctantly moved to the edge of the bed. Just as she was about to stand up, Anji stopped her softly, and then saw the other party move the basin of water soaked in sackcloth to the bed beside her.

"Will it be more convenient this way? You clean it yourself, and I'll go to the door to let the wind out."

Saying this, Anji was about to turn around when she heard Elena asking suddenly:

"Are you a witch?"

Angie froze, looked at the timid girl, and said with a smile:

"Do you think I am?"

"It's kind of like...but...she should be a good witch, right?"

As Elena spoke, she glanced to the side unconfidently, and then saw her elder sister walking back in front of her, squatting down, and gently stroking her head.

"So, I haven't thanked you yet," Angie looked at Elena gently, "Thank you for keeping it a secret for me."

"Um……"

Elena responded sullenly, with a hesitant expression.

But seeing the back of her sister turning to the door and the purple marks on her arm, she finally mustered up the courage to apologize:

"I'm sorry... When I hit you before, you must have been in pain..."

"It doesn't hurt."

Anji spoke in a calm tone, turned to look at the surprised Elena, and continued with a smile: "It won't hurt to be hit by a cute little guy, don't worry. You wipe it off quickly, I'll go out first ~"

Things are going extremely well.Soon, Angie who was standing at the door heard Elena calling her softly in the room, saying that it was done.

It's just that when Anji walked into the bedroom to clean up the sink, she muttered in a low voice and guilty conscience, saying that she wanted her sister to accompany her, and that if her sister wanted to leave her to play, she would sue her mother.

Angie could only agree with a wry smile.

After disposing of the basin of water and linen, she returned to the room again, opened the window for ventilation, then sat on the edge of the bed and chatted with her sister for a while.

It turned out that as early as the day before Brin was arrested, Elena began to feel that something was wrong with her sister.

"I know my sister very well," Elena explained in a low voice, "Although my sister will indeed be angry because of my injury, she will never say something like 'Is it important to be religious?'—because usually our parents often warn us not to treat The church is disrespectful... and my sister will not sit obediently and let me sleep on her all the time, she said that it will make my body sore."

Under Angie's smiling gaze, she expressed all the doubts as much as possible, and finally added:
"...Also, my sister won't let me beat her obediently. If she is hurt by me, she will only fight with me..."

"Well, I can probably know. Although I'm not your sister, I can see part of her memory."

Anji lightly touched the girl's head, and seeing Elena shrinking her head slightly, with a submissive and obedient appearance, she smiled slightly.

She wasn't surprised.It will be a matter of time before her identity is exposed, and she really didn't deliberately pretend to be in front of Elena.

Although her behavior was normal in front of her parents and outsiders, she couldn't help but want to take care of her "sister" who was still young and lacked the company of her parents, so she showed that she didn't fit Suzanne's personality that side.

This lonely and willful girl is somewhat similar to her once.

After a moment of distraction, Anji saw Elena looking at herself curiously, and asked with a smile:

"what happened?"

"It's okay..." Elena shook her head slowly, "I just feel that you seem very mature, just like an adult..."

Anji couldn't help laughing, just about to say something, but suddenly heard a burst of crazy laughter resounding through the sky.

This is definitely not a sound that humans can make.

Startled, she got up abruptly and ran to the window, looking in the direction of the sound, but she could only see the lush forest in front of her.

"Elena, don't come out of the bedroom, I'll check the situation."

"Huh? What's the matter—"

Before Elena could finish speaking, she saw her elder sister running out of the room in a hurry, and even slammed the door behind her. The confusion in her heart became more and more intense.

Resisting the pain, Elena got up slowly, limped to the window, looked downstairs, and then saw Susanna running into the forest with an ax in her hand ...

"Strange...why is my sister going to the forest? Did something happen just now?"

Elena was talking to herself in bewilderment. At the same time, she heard a rapid bell coming from the direction of the village—it meant that there was an emergency in the village, and everyone had to go to the church to gather.

She listened to the continuous high-frequency bell in surprise, and after a few seconds, Alma hurriedly opened the door and said to her:
"Elena, I'm going to the village, don't run around at home... What's going on, why did you open the window? Where's Susanna?"

"Huh? My... my sister just went to the forest."

Elena looked at her mother's shocked expression in bewilderment, before she had time to say anything, she turned around and ran out, shouting at the same time:
"Close the windows quickly! Don't leave the room, you know?"

"understood--"

Before the words fell, the mother hastily closed the door.

Elena stood there in a daze, looked at the forest outside the window again, and was shocked to see Alma running into the forest.

Mom, is this going to find my sister?
