Chapter 29 Defects

"Who was outside just now?"

Seeing Yao Lesi walking back into the room, Su Mu turned over the picture album in her hand and asked coldly.

"Little Pep."

After changing back to her adult figure, Yao Lesi replied in a brisk tone while arranging her hair that was messed up due to the change in body shape.

"Why did he come to you?" Su Mu looked up in surprise.

She doesn't blame her for being curious. After all, judging from what has happened over the past day, most of the participants' attitudes toward Yao Lesi are to avoid them. Except for her, no one will take the initiative to contact Yao Lesi.

Now someone suddenly changed the route, which inevitably made her a little strange.

Yao Lesi looked over jokingly, "Oh, baby Jenny, are you jealous again?"

Lowering his head, Su Mu turned his attention back to the album, "Yeah, I'm so jealous. Why do other people come to disturb our alone time? Why can't you just be mine? Why are those dolls so annoying?

I keep appearing in front of your eyes. I really want to monopolize every minute and second of your life so that you can only see me forever."

As he said that, Su Mu turned over another page to doodle.

Um?

Her eyes narrowed.

Different from the previous blind paintings that are full of abstract style, the pictures on this page can clearly show the individual's personality.

Although the traces smeared with inferior crayons were not enough for Su Mu to see the appearance of these characters, the basic characteristics were expressed.

And there is a name label next to each person.

Konoeva, Sheila, Jieke...

"Did you draw this?" Su Mu waved the very inferior picture album in his hand.

Yao Lesi did not hide it, "Not entirely."

"Then the most beautiful picture must be painted by you?" Su Mu stood up the picture album and faced the picture full of figures facing Yao Lesi.

"yes."

Yao Lesi did not raise her head.

She seemed to have already known which picture Su Mu was looking at and what she wanted to ask, so she answered without even the slightest hesitation.

Sitting on a soft chair illuminated by lights, Su Mu held up her chin and lowered her eyelashes slightly.

"Konoeva, Sheila, Jieke..."

She read out the names recorded in the albums and books one by one.

"Who are they?"

Yao Lesi still had the same obedient attitude, as if what Su Mu asked was not a secret, but something very insignificant.

She lifted up her silver curls and answered softly in a voice that sounded like a lover's whisper.

"Some were picked up from the sewers, some were bought from the homes of poor peasants, some were robbed, and some were sent by stupid nobles who were deceived by lies."

"But here, they all have only one identity, that is, they are failed and defective products."

Next, without Su Mu asking any more questions, Yao Lesi already told the story as if she had fallen into some kind of memory.

"When they first came here, they did live a comfortable and good life for a period of time. It was as beautiful as a dream."

"But these children soon learned that there is no free lunch in the world. The happiness they had was just an advance payment of pain."

Yao Lesi stood up and waved everything on the experimental table back to its original place.

“Underneath the glamor, there is often the stench of decay and decay.”

"Just like where there is light, there is darkness with no clear boundaries." She said as if sighing, "Under the glorious throne, there are also countless bones of the nameless ones."

"Then why did you keep their names and albums?" Su Mu controlled the album and returned to its original place.

Under the control of his ability, the tattered picture album accurately landed on the shelf in the alchemy room, sandwiched among a pile of priceless secret books.
