After saying that, the two children reached out to Xiaolan together.
"It's yours."
Xiaolan lowered her eyebrows and glanced at the two bloodshot eyeballs, then slowly raised her hands.
The touch of the eyeballs was smooth and sticky, and Xiaolan watched helplessly as they rolled from the girls' palms to her own.
"Don't give it to sister." The two of them looked at Xiaolan's eyes, looking very satisfied.
"Sister?" Xiaolan remembered the voices of the two girls who carried the coffin into the room, "Sister... where is she?"
The two girls looked at each other and smiled, and at the same time raised their index fingers to their lips and made a mysterious "shhh" sound.
"Don't disturb sister." one said.
"My sister is eating meat," said another.
"If sister is angry," one said.
"I'll eat you too," said another.
Eating meat?
Could it be...
"You...what kind of meat did you get?" Xiaolan asked, pretending to be nonchalant.
The eyes of the two girls glanced at the eyeballs in Xiaolan's palm.
"I won't tell you." They both said at the same time.
Outside the window, a distant cockcrow suddenly came.
It's going to be daybreak.
The two girls suddenly laughed sharply, one ran to the left, the other ran to the right, and disappeared in front of Xiaolan with harsh laughter.
Xiaolan opened the front door.
"Eh?" A smart voice came from behind, "Why are you here so early?"
Xiaolan let go of the door handle and turned around stiffly.
It was a girl in her twenties wearing a yellow skirt. The yellow skirt was holding a towel in her hand, wiping the water stains on her hands while walking towards Xiaolan.
The face in Huang Skirt is also very similar to Xiaolan's face.
Hmm...will I look like this in the future?
"Ask you," Huang Skirt smiled shyly, "Why are you staring at me?"
"I...I came to see you." Xiaolan stumbled and replied.
Huang skirt lowered her head, not letting Xiaolan see the smile on her face, "Is it because I didn't visit you yesterday?"
"Uh...well," Xiaolan nodded, "What's going on?"
"Hey, don't mention it anymore," Huang Skirt waved her arm and turned sideways to hold Xiaolan's hand. "The coffin we ordered yesterday was thrown directly outside the yard by those guys. My sister and I moved it.
It took a long time to move in, so it was a waste of time...Why are your palms so sticky?"
Xiaolan subconsciously protected her pocket, thinking that she had stuffed her eyeballs into her clothes in advance.
"You must be sweating," Xiaolan quickly changed the topic, "Did you have a good rest last night?"
"What are you talking about? It's weird..." Huang Skirt glanced at Xiaolan.
At this time, another girl came out of the room next to the corridor. The girl was about the same age as Huang Skirt. She was wearing linen clothes and had the same face, with a gentle and friendly look on her face.
"It's you." Judging from the voice, this is the slow-tempered girl yesterday. "Why so early?"
"Let me see you." Xiaolan said quickly.
"Huh, just now you said you came to see me, but now that I saw her, I have turned to come to see her again." Huang Skirt shook Xiaolan's hand away and hummed dissatisfied.
How many times in life can a person have the opportunity to fall in love with himself?
How many times will you have the opportunity to see yourself competing with yourself?
Xiaolan saw it all this time.
Seeing Xiaolan's "clumsy tongue", Ma Buyi took the towel from Huang Skirt's hand and said, "Okay, why are you bullying him... Seriously, why did you come here so early today? Did something happen?"
The woman in yellow skirt also turned around and looked at Xiaolan seriously.
"My family..." Xiaolan pretended to be embarrassed, "I don't know what to say."
The expression on Ma Buyi's clothes became solemn, "Did something happen to your face?"
Xiaolan thought for a while, this should be considered an accident.
So she nodded.
"ah?……"
The yellow skirt and linen shirt looked at each other nervously.
"Don't worry too much," Ma Buyi thought for a while and said to Xiaolan, "You are fine now, which means there is nothing wrong with your face."
Xiaolan sighed and said "hmm" in a dull voice.
The yellow skirt grabbed the sleeves of the linen shirt, "Sister, we have to help them."
Xiaolan also looked at the linen clothes longingly.
"But……"
"Sister, we will be a family soon," Huang skirt approached Xiaolan, "and no matter what, the meat is our common enemy, isn't it?"
Xiaolan skillfully put her arms around Huang Shirt's shoulders and whispered, "If they succeed once, there will be a second time."
Azabu Yi was very embarrassed, lowered his head and walked into the back workshop, "Let me think about it again."
The girl in yellow skirt leaned in Xiaolan's arms and looked at her sister's back with a worried look.
"Do you think sister will help us?" Xiaolan asked.
Huang Skirt rolled her eyes at Xiaolan, "Who is your sister? What is your sister's name?"
"Didn't you say that we are already a family?"
There was a little red cloud on the cheeks of the yellow skirt, and she put an elbow on Xiaolan's waist, "I said yes, but you said no... I think you like my sister more, right?"
She raised her eyes and looked at Xiaolan with a half-smile.
That's enough.
Although they look exactly the same, does it matter who you like?
As the owner of this face, to be honest, even those two strange little girls last night, it was hard for Xiaolan not to like them.
Xiaolan never thought that she would have to deal with this kind of conflict. She pursed her lips and tried her best to show a doting smile, patted Huang Shirt's head, and said softly, "You are the only one I like."
Vomited, really vomited.
Xiaolan's own toes dug into the castle in embarrassment in her shoes, but Huang Skirt smiled and pulled Xiaolan's arm, saying coquettishly, "Let's go, I'll take you to ask my sister, she will definitely agree."
Xiaolan was pulled away by the yellow skirt obediently, "But, this should have a great impact on your family, right?"
"Actually, it's not bad," Huang Skirt said, "I'm just lending my faces to you for backup. Of course, it's not easy to take something as important as a face out of the house, but since it's your house...
…There’s nothing to worry about.”
Xiaolan nodded guiltily, looked away, and did not dare to speak.
Xiaolan looked towards the other side of the workshop. Over there, paper figures stood upright against the wall, and a heavy ebony coffin was placed among the paper figures.
And behind the coffin, two dark faces appeared.
It's those two kids from last night.
They heard all the conversations between Xiao Lan and Huang Skirt. The two hid behind the coffin without saying a word, only staring at Xiao Lan with dark faces.
Xiaolan's stomach twitched.
Only these two children knew that Xiaolan did not come to their house early in the morning.
Will they tell their sister?
Huang skirt followed Xiaolan's eyes and saw the two girls. She immediately showed an expression of disgust and waved her hand towards the two of them, "Go, don't make trouble here, adults are doing things."
Xiao Lan and Huang Skirt continued to walk forward. Several paper figures blocked Xiao Lan's sight. When the coffin appeared again, the two children had disappeared.
"they……"
Huang Skirt glanced there casually, "Don't worry about them, these two weird guys... Look at that coffin, it was the one my sister and I moved yesterday. Let me tell you, it's really super heavy. I've never seen that coffin."
Heavy coffin!"
Xiaolan wiped a cold sweat and said, "I heard that the material itself is very heavy."
"That's true, but...eh? Why did the coffin lid open?"
Huang Skirt said, letting go of Xiaolan's hand and walking towards the coffin.
"The lid of this coffin," Huang Skirt pointed at the half-open lid of the ebony coffin, "it was still closed last night, who opened it?... Even the paper man was knocked down."
The woman in yellow skirt lifted up the paper man, crossed her arms and looked at the coffin in confusion.
Xiaolan quietly moved to the open end of the coffin, "It's empty inside."
"Nonsense," Huang Skirt squatted down and observed, "If someone is really hiding inside, can the coffin lid be left open?"
It really makes sense.
"It makes sense..." Xiaolan raised her chin and frowned, pretending to be stupid.
"I know," Huang Skirt slapped her thigh and stood up. "It must be those two children who are causing trouble. They really deserve a beating..."
Xiaolan's eyes widened in slight shock.
Seeing the pot flying onto the two children, Xiaolan couldn't bear it.
"They... probably didn't do it on purpose."
"If we don't fight for three days, I think they are going to rebel," Huang Skirt rolled up her sleeves, "I think I won't arrest them and ask them..."
If he is arrested and interrogated, won't the secret be revealed?
Xiaolan grabbed the angry yellow skirt and said hurriedly, "I don't think those two children did it."
What Xiaolan said was fair and righteous. After all, this was the only truth Xiaolan said since she entered the house.
"Who else could it be?" Huang Skirt yelled, "It was fine when we put it on the ground last night!"
"Maybe..." Xiaolan signaled Huang Skirt to calm down first, and then she whispered into her ear with a cryptic look, "I think the same thing as mine may have happened to your family."
Huang Skirt became alert, "What's going on?"
"Didn't I just say that someone was concerned about my family's face?" Xiaolan pretended to be mysterious, "My family just found traces of someone sneaking in the day before. The next day, our faces almost disappeared.
It was stolen..."
"you mean……"
"I think someone might be trying to steal your family's face."
After Xiaolan finished speaking, Huang Skirt's eyes became obviously frightened.
"No... no, no one can steal my faces. I told your mother before that your faces are so easy to find, so quickly find another place to hide them."
"It's been changed, it's been changed," Xiaolan said patiently, "but I think, just in case, we can swap faces and be each other's backup. What do you think?"
call--
After so much preparation, Xiaolan finally said what she wanted to say.
"Exchange..." Huang Skirt rolled her eyes and thought for a while, "I have to ask my sister."
"Then I..."
"Just wait for me, don't go home yet," Huang Skirt walked to the wall and pulled up a curtain, "I'll come find you later."
Only then did Xiaolan see that there was a door behind the bamboo curtain. The yellow skirt opened the door and walked out.
What to do later?
Xiaolan was thinking about how to deceive the two girls for a while. Suddenly, an inexplicable peeking at her made her back shiver with gratitude.
Xiaolan turned her head suddenly, and sure enough, two little girls were standing at the end of the corridor, looking at her.
There was no smile on their faces, and their pupils were pitch black, like four bottomless black holes.
She took a few steps closer, raised her hand and greeted the two of them.
"Hi," Xiaolan realized that she still didn't know the name of this family, "What are you doing?"
The two little girls stood quietly, not even moving their lips when they spoke.
"You said you came to see us." one said.
"Actually, I came to see my sister," said another.
Xiaolan was speechless.
They are truly sisters.
"I'm here to see you..." Xiaolan spread her hands tiredly, "Your... that sister, that sister, and you two."
"Liar," said one.
"Liar," said the other.
Xiaolan holds her forehead.
Fortunately, the person facing this problem is himself. If it was Baomu or a fool, he would have hanged himself by now. If it was Luo Jiutian, he would have been roasted by now.
"We also prepared a gift for you." said one.
"I have prepared such a precious gift," said another.
"I still keep the gift," Xiao Lan said hurriedly, "I cherish it very much, it's in my pocket."
"If my sister finds out," one said.
"It will definitely kill us," said another.
"If sister knew now." said one.
"Then she will kill you," said the other.
After saying that, the two of them seemed to smile.
Xiaolan put her hand outside her pocket, feeling the outline of her two eyes.
"You will turn into meat," said one.
"Into delicious meat," said another.
The eyes of the two children were full of greedy smiles, which made Xiaolan shudder.
"I want to eat meat too," one said.
"Eat meat and become a mother," said another.
"I will become the mother body." One said looking at the other.
"That's me!" the other retorted.
"That's me!"
"That's me!"
"..."
The two of them were bickering like this. Before Xiaolan could realize what was going on, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the door. Within a few seconds, the door creaked open, and the yellow skirt and linen clothes left together.
Come in.
Before he could reach Xiaolan, Ma Buyi opened his mouth and said, "I agree with your plan."
Huang Skirt looked at Xiaolan and nodded.
Xiaolan smiled happily, turned her head and glanced at the end of the corridor. The two children disappeared again at some point.
"Now it seems that the situation is indeed tense," Ma Buyi took off his coat stained with some paper scraps, "I also feel that the meat is getting stronger and stronger recently, we must make some plans in advance."
Xiaolan agreed.
"Our family's face is right here," Azabu Yiyi raised his hand and covered his right eye, "After the backup is completed, I would like to trouble you to get your family's face and give it to us as a backup."
