[...The dew in the garden in the early morning is still as heavy as before. I must get up every morning and clean the stone pavement in front of the house carefully, otherwise the frost will easily make people slip on it. 】
[Although this bit of frost is nothing to us, during the days when you were away, I found a lively and lovely maid to accompany me in pruning flowers and plants. Her name is Efilia. It’s a very beautiful name, isn’t it?
?You will definitely like her when you come back and see her.】
[The green vine we planted by ourselves has grown to tens of meters high. It is like a big blanket covering the eaves of our wooden house. It is like an emerald in the sea of flowers. It is very beautiful. 】
[Oh, by the way, Efilia and I built a small wooden platform in the garden together. From now on, you can recite poems and sing among the sea of flowers. It must be a pretty wonderful scene. 】
[I haven’t heard your singing for a long, long time. When you come back, I want to see you wearing the most gorgeous dress and the garland I made for you, standing in the sea of blooming golden bud flowers, singing for me what you wrote.
Poetry, as a gift for reunion...]
【...When will you come back?】
…
"I'm back...I'm back! Eden!"
Brachi held Lintuoju in his arms and ran like crazy across the messy stone road until he came to the wooden house standing under the thunder clouds.
The surface of the rotten wooden house was covered with moss. From a distance, it looked like a dark green monster crumbling on the ruins. The cold wind poured into the half-closed dilapidated wooden door, making a low whining sound.
Squeak——!
Brachi, who was wearing a formal dress, stretched out his hand and slowly pushed open the dilapidated wooden door, making a heart-wrenching sound.
Big broken holes one after another are all over the roof of the wooden house. The dim sunlight shines through the thick thunderclouds, like several gray beams of light falling inside the dead wooden house. A long broken blue satin is stuck in the jagged cracks in the roof.
, dancing wildly with the whimpering cold wind.
Brachi stared blankly at the scene in front of him, then raised one foot stiffly, but almost made a big hole in the ground.
The wooden house, which had not been taken care of for hundreds of years, had long since decayed. Even if Brachi walked on it with the lightest steps, it would continue to creak and groan.
"Eden...Eden!" Brachi opened his chapped lips lightly and shouted softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing anyone, "Where are you...Eden?"
He kept pushing open the old wooden doors and approaching one room after another. Except for the furniture covered with dust and moss, nothing else impressed Brachi's eyes.
After searching almost all the rooms, Brachi slowly moved to the last bedroom door.
He stretched out his hand tremblingly and pressed it against the surface of the cracked wooden door...
"Brachi!"
An anxious voice came from behind, and Lin Qiye and Si Xiaonan landed from the sky outside the door of the wooden house.
When Lin Qiye saw Brachi standing alone in a dilapidated wooden house, dressed up for the occasion, he was startled for a moment, and then spoke again: "Brachi..."
Squeak——!
The last wooden door in front of Brachi slowly opened.
Among the endless gray, a bright golden color appeared before his eyes.
Blakey's pupils shrank slightly.
The biting cold wind passed through the big hole in the wall and whimpered into the bedroom. The moss-covered wooden floor was full of golden golden buds, swaying in the dilapidated cold wind.
A few petals were picked up by the wind and fell gently on Brachi's cheek, like a delicate palm, gently brushing away the two lines of hot tears.
"Eden..." Blaki stood in front of the golden buds in this room, like a lightning strike.
After an unknown amount of time, he finally returned to his senses, turned around suddenly, and stared at Lin Qiye behind him with his red eyes:
"Where is my wife Eden... Where is she? Why is this place like this... This is different from what she said in her letter... This is different, Lin Qiye!!"
As if he was crazy, he ran to Lin Qiye amidst the harsh creaking sounds, grabbed his shoulders with both hands, and shook him hard:
"Obviously I wrote a letter to her yesterday... Why did this place become like this today?!
Where is she?
My wife Eden, where is she?! You must know, right?!
Lin Qiye... Dean Lin! Dean Lin... I beg you! I really beg you... tell me! Where is my wife?!"
Braki's roars were gradually covered up by his cries. Finally, he looked at Lin Qiye with eyes filled with pain and prayer.
Lin Qiye's expression was extremely complicated. He looked at Brachi's painful expression in silence. After a long time, he spoke hoarsely:
"Brachi, there are some things that I have always wanted to find the right opportunity to tell you..."
In the dead silence of the dilapidated wooden house, Lin Qiye told the truth about Iden bit by bit. Braki's expression first changed from shock to confusion, and then he froze in place like a sculpture.
He stood in front of the room full of golden buds, lowered his head sluggishly, raised one hand, and gently placed it on the right side of his chest.
"She...she is dead?" Brachi muttered mechanically, "She gave her heart to me...but she died?"
"She is not dead, her heart in your body is still beating, and her soul is still with you." Lin Qiye said seriously.
"No...impossible, this is impossible!" Brachi suddenly took two steps back, widened his bloodshot eyes, and shouted, "She can't die...She clearly said that even if we break up,
Even after giving it to other gods, there are still two Youth Fruits left! One for each of us, why would she give me her heart!"
"The fog is more terrifying than you imagine... A single fruit cannot save your life."
Brachi stood there blankly.
His lips were trembling constantly, and his eyes were full of struggle. He held his head in pain with both hands and shook it vigorously, as if he wanted to get rid of something.
"No...it's all fake...it's all fake!
This is not our garden at all! Eden is still at home waiting for me to go back... I know, this is a dream... this must be a dream!
Haha, I said, how could I come out of the hospital so quickly...I haven't woken up from my dream yet! When I wake up, I will still be in my ward...
After I wake up, I will take my medicine on time and have a good rest according to the director's instructions... When my illness is cured, I can really leave the hospital, and I can be reunited with Eden! That must be the case!"
As Brachi spoke, he suddenly burst out laughing, then passed by Lin Qiye and rushed out of the wooden house!
"Brachi!" Lin Qiye narrowed his eyes, turned around and chased after him.
As soon as Brachi's figure rushed out of the wooden house, he stopped in place.
At the end of the dilapidated and deserted garden, three figures were seen walking towards this place quickly.
