Is it okay to run away with me?

Chapter 44 The Shadow
  Dylan didn't leave Duo's room until early morning.

They comforted each other and chatted all night, and then Duo fell asleep peacefully.

Duo talked a lot about her mother and her memory of being in her mother's arms when she was a child. Her tragic and innocent eyes deeply moved Dylan.

When Dylan saw Helios standing at the door of his room, he asked in surprise: "Waiting for me so early?"

Helios nodded, very seriously: "Brother, Duo has a problem."

"The Knicks are hostile to Duo, and you want to do the same?" Dylan was exhausted both mentally and physically.

"She killed Si Tong." Helios said with difficulty.

"Really?" Dylan frowned.

"Really, it's what Bai Qi saw in the memory of his previous life. Brother, since she can ruthlessly kill her own people, do you really feel free to let her stay?"

"Let me think about it..." Dylan opened the door, leaving Helios outside.

Perhaps, he should question Duo now. But, she just fell asleep. Dylan gave up the idea. Compared to whether she killed her tribe members, Dylan was more concerned about her rest and sleep.

Dylan, since when did you become like this for her?

It was obviously early morning, but it was still night outside the window. Deep in the black forest, not even the sunlight or the blue of the sky can be seen. Bai Qi looked out the window and thought: If you don't see the sun every day, you will be depressed.

At this moment, several black figures flashed outside Bai Qi's window.

It's not a dazzle...

Bai Qi immediately closed the window and shouted: "Your Highness Helios, help!"

Helios rushed to Bai Qi's side within five seconds and asked worriedly: "What's wrong?"

Bai Qi pointed out the window: "I seemed to have seen a few black shadows just now. I shouldn't be dazzled..."

Helios said: "You go find Nix, I'll go out and take a look."

"Helios!" She grabbed his sleeve, "Be careful!"

Helios smiled sweetly: "Don't worry."

They split up.

Bai Qi knocked on Nix's door hurriedly: "Nix! Something happened!"

Nix opened the door suddenly, almost breaking Bai Qi's head.

"What happened?"

"I just saw a few dark figures outside the window. Helios has already gone out to check."

"I'll go as well."

Knicks left quickly.

Bai Qi sighed and hesitated for a while before walking to Dylan's door.

"Dylan, are you resting? Helios and Nyx are out. I just saw a few black figures outside the window..."

Dylan's door slowly opened.

Dylan's first sentence was - "Did Duo kill you in the previous life?"

Bai Qi frowned, then nodded.

Dylan asked again: "Why?"

Bai Qi shook his head: "She took me to the black forest, stepped on my face, and then killed me. I don't know the reason."

Dylan thought for a while: "Did you have any grudge against Duo in your previous life?"

Bai Qi said frankly: "I have almost never seen her in the memory of my previous life. She and I are just tribesmen who have never met."

Seeing that Dylan didn't speak, Bai Qi asked, "Do you doubt me?"

Dylan smiled slightly: "No, I'm thinking."

"Dylan, you have to be more sensible." Bai Qi forced out a fake smile.

Meanwhile, Knicks came back swearing.

"Hey! Where did the shadow come from? I didn't even see a breathing creature." Nix complained.

Helios behind her also said: "I really didn't see any black shadow." Bai Qi could only say: "Maybe I didn't have a good rest and I saw it wrong..."

"Be good, go back and rest quickly." Helios came over.

Nicks said angrily: "Don't make a fuss next time, I won't believe you anymore!"

Bai Qi lowered his head: "I'm sorry..."

Outside the window, it was still a quiet night.

The few black shadows just now were hiding on the top of the fir tree, standing like ghosts in the dark night.

Nix went to cut the roses, and Bai Qi was urged by Helios to take a rest. Only Dylan hesitated for a moment and finally appeared in Duo's room.

When he brought Duo here last night, he still loved this woman with all his heart. But I have to admit that Dylan was shaken because of Bai Qi's words.

Dylan pushed Duo awake with a cold face.

Duo rubbed his eyes, which were puffy with sleep.

She smiled and asked: "Dylan, did I sleep for a long time?"

"No. I came here to ask you why you killed Si Tong." Dylan's expression was cold.

"I..." Duo only hesitated for two seconds before saying without changing her face: "Because she wants to kill you! Dylan, have you forgotten?"

Dylan's pupils trembled: "Really?"

The expression on Duo's face was very rich. She said with determination and love: "Dylan, don't you believe it? She and I have never met before. We were locked up in different bases for training when we were young. She is a threat to you. Man, how could I stay? I've said it before, you are the only one in this world who truly cares about me..."

As he spoke, a familiar cry came again.

Dylan held Duo's hand again. Her hand was so cold that it made Dylan feel distressed.

"Dylan, I know that killing people seems cruel. But this is what I understand as love. For you, I can be a heinous person..." Duo said lovingly.

For the sake of important people, you can be a heinous person...

Dylan thought that whenever Helios smoked, wasn't he also in front of a heinous person?

He seemed to understand Duo.

In other words, at this time Dylan believed that he and Duo were essentially the same kind of people.

Duo looked at the silent Dylan and took the initiative to kiss him.

This time, she kissed Dylan on the lips.

The cold lips of the two people touched each other, as if pink roses were growing on the white snow.

She said: "Dylan, don't doubt me anymore. What you can confirm is that I really love you."

Dylan replied forgetfully: "Okay."

An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Duo's mouth. It's great that Dylan turns out to be such a gullible and stupid vampire.

Outside the house, the dark shadows on the fir trees fell from four directions and landed silently in the garden on the third floor.

At this time, Nicks was cutting roses in the garden.

The four shadows united and trapped Nix with golden ropes from four directions.

Gold hunter?

"Dylan!" Nix yelled. She didn't want to fight alone when her family was around.

The golden rope almost turned Knicks into a golden rice dumpling.

"Hmph." Nix snorted coldly, his green eyes flowing. The four people wearing black cloaks and black masks should have been rotten in the air quickly, but they seemed to be immune to Nix's poison.

"What's going on..." Nix panicked. Could it be that their masks and cloaks could isolate their poison?
  Dylan and Helios appeared behind Nyx just in time.

"Helios, don't show mercy, they are enemies." Dillon said.

"Brother, I understand." Helios's red eyes burst out with the light of fireworks.

Four huge flames surrounded the four black figures, but their cloaks seemed to be immune to fire and poison. The flames always kept a few centimeters away from the cloaks and seemed to be floating in the air.
