Chapter 175 Snow Child
At this time, a very strange scene was being staged in the Louvre Museum's painting gallery. A white cat as white as snow was jumping like a ghost among the famous paintings hanging on the wall. In the painting gallery where pets are not allowed, there is a dog with white hair and red eyes running around.
Jiamu had already entered the atomized state at this time. He passed through the pedestrians like a wisp of white smoke and chased the white cat. Because it was covered with [Presence Weakened] Mimusu, passers-by All I could feel was a breeze blowing over me.
Why does the painting gallery feel weird today? It couldn’t be haunted.
Many passers-by feel vaguely that there is something strange about the Louvre Museum today, but they cannot tell what is strange.
At this moment, in the blocked view of passers-by, the wolf-shaped white mist is constantly chasing the ghost in the painting, and the only two people who can see this scene are watching the chasing game thoughtfully.
"The movement of the cat in the painting is regular."
Valente, who was watching, said to Xia Xiu standing aside.
“Well, the way it moves is the frames on the adjacent sides and the frames diagonally opposite to the frame it is currently in. It moves very fast and can jump 3 times in almost 1 second. It's painted, so it shouldn't have any offensive capabilities." Xia Xiu rubbed his chin with his right hand and replied calmly.
“Aren’t you going to tell Jiamu this?”
Valente looked at the cat and dog that were still chasing each other, then turned to Xia Xiu and asked.
“No need, Jiamu has noticed this now. Didn’t you realize that he has been inducing the other party? The white cat’s movement sequence just now has always been arbitrary, but now it has begun to fall into Jiamu’s trap. "In the rhythm of Mu."
Xia Xiu's golden eyes stared at the two figures chasing ahead with interest, and the corners of his mouth had already curled up.
"The next jump of the white cat is the painting directly opposite, and this is Jiam's chance to take action."
Hearing this, Valente looked forward. At this time, the white cat jumped The cat began to jump across the portrait again. The target of its jump this time was just as Xia Xiu said, it was a portrait directly opposite it. When it started to jump, Jiam seemed to have expected it. Came to the middle of the two paintings.
"Meow!"
The white cat showed a humane look of fear, and it couldn't stop its body from rushing forward.
Facing the charging white cat, the atomized Jiam handsomely jumped sideways and behind the opponent. Then he released the atomization and opened his mouth to bite the back of the white cat's neck.
The white cat was successfully caught by Jiam.
"Meow! Meow! Meow! Meow!"
After being caught, the white cat began to struggle desperately, and its limbs were gesticulating vigorously in mid-air. Jiamu directly took it in his mouth and came to Xia Xiu and Valente. Both of them turned their attention to Noisy white cat.
At this time, the white cat had already stared at the two humans in front of it. It deliberately pretended to be fierce and started to grin at the two people. Unfortunately, its actions did not successfully deter the two humans in front of it. Seeing the golden-haired human who had been smiling all the time, he stretched out his hands to hug himself, so he planned to wait for the other person to touch him and bite him hard.
But when the white cat saw the blond young man's gradually erect pupils, it immediately withered.
The pair of snake eyes that are as bright as gold are exuding unparalleled intimidation.
Xia Xiu held the front end of the trembling white cat with his hand, and then lifted the cat up high.
"Well, it's a female cat."
The blond young man said after observing, and Valente on the side gave him a blank look.
“Forget her gender for now, do you have any tips from [God’s perspective]?” Valente then asked.
“Don’t tell me, it’s true.”
Xia Xiu laid the white cat, which was full of fear and shame, in his arms and started to stroke it. He also looked at the updated content from [God’s Perspective].
[God's Perspective·Private]: This world is cold and smelly, full of danger and death. Compared with the eternally beautiful art, this world is simply a ball of thread that can never be untangled.
[God’s Perspective·Private]: Snow Child, this is the name of this cat. She has lived in the Louvre Museum of Painting for six years. It is no longer clear where she came from. Got it.
Xue Hai only remembers that she has been living here since the moment she opened her eyes. The world is not aware of her existence, and she does not have any friends or similar people.
Snowchild's only pleasure in the painting museum is to listen to the chatter of the humans who are looking at the paintings, or to listen to the complaints of the Louvre employees about the unqualified tourists and their opinions on life. Lamentations about trivial things.
[God's Perspective·Private]: As an earthbound spirit, Snow Child does not need to worry about eating and drinking, she has no needs in that regard.
Snow Child's life is not infinite. She can feel that she will disappear soon. After all, six years is the limit for an earthbound spirit like her to survive.
[God's Perspective·Private]: Now, Snow Child has a chance, a chance to get rid of her shackles, and this is also a choice for her.
[God's Perspective·Private]: The [Dragon Slayer] who possesses the [Holy Sword of Barumk] can cut off the shackles of the earthbound spirit. However, cutting off the shackles requires mutual consent from both parties. Maybe You can ask the other person what wishes they want to come true.
When [God’s Perspective] finished playing the background content, the new secondary conditions of the white card were also updated.
[Pity]: Sympathy for the weak, a knight must have a broad and tolerant heart, and the justice in his heart should be the knight's code of conduct.
"Have mercy..."
Xia Xiu stared at the content on the screen thoughtfully. He told Valente the content just updated from [God's Perspective].
When the [God's Perspective] screen in front of them completely disappeared, Xia Xiu and Valente heard a soft protest.
“Damn golden retriever human, how long are you going to touch me with your dirty hands before you let go!”
Xia Xiu and Valente both looked at each other in unison He turned to the white cat named Snow Child. If he heard correctly, the sound just now came from the other party's mouth.
"Abraham, is this?"
Valent looked at the cat in Xia Xiu's arms with some hesitation. He was sure that the voice just now was definitely not an auditory hallucination. It definitely came from the snow child in Xia Xiu's arms. From the mouth.
"Meow, facial paralysis man, don't get so close to me!"
The soft cry came out of the snow child again, and this time Valente was really sure of his words. It’s the white cat in front of me.
“It should be a gift from [God’s perspective]. The protagonist in the fantasy story can also understand the language of animals.”
The blond young man replied calmly. He stopped playing with the cat, then he grabbed the front end of the snow child again, turned her over to face him, and then said with a serious face:
“Can you become a human with cat ears?”
Snowchild:? ? ?
"It seems not possible, so let's change the question, what is your dream?"
Looking at the incomprehensible human beings in front of him, Snow Child couldn't help but complain:
“Is there something wrong with this scary golden-haired human being’s brain!”
“Pfft——”
Valente on the side couldn’t help but laugh out loud. He was usually very polite. Expressionless, there were very few things that could make him laugh, and now this weird scene inexplicably hit his point of laughter.
This time it was Xia Xiu who gave the other party a blank look and replied to Xue Hai.
“Why do you, a local cat who lives in the artistic Louvre, say something so vulgar!”
Snow Child: "Meow?"
Snow Child hesitated and asked again:
"Can you hear what I am saying?" "Not only can I understand what you are scolding us, I I still know your name, Xuehai." Xia Xiu replied with a harmonious smile.
“Really!?” Xue Hai looked at Xia Xiu in disbelief.
Looking at Xue Hai's shocked cat face, Xia Xiu couldn't help but reach out and stroke her a few more times.
"Come, let's go back to the topic just now, tell me, what dreams or wishes do you have."
"Wish Meow?"
"Yes, wish, we I will fulfill your wish, take you away from here, and take you to experience the colorful world outside."
The blond young man said seductively, while Valente watched from the side. This scene always felt weird, and he couldn't quite pinpoint what was wrong.
Snow Child's head is still a little confused now, and there are big questions in her little head.
“Really Meow?”
Snowchild has been living in the painting gallery of the Louvre, so she is essentially a very simple cat.
“Yes, tell me your dream.”
“Dream meow, I think about it...”
The innocent snow child really began to recall his dream on the spot.
“Meow, I have always heard from tourists that there is a famous painting mounted on the wall in a hall in the middle of the second floor of the Louvre. They all say that the painting is the best in the world. I want to see the paintings,”
Xue Hai said to Xia Xiu excitedly.
“The painting on the second floor of the Louvre, she should be talking about the painting ‘Eternal Smile’.” Valente said at this time.
"Yes, meow, that painting is called "Eternal Smile"!" The snow child in Xia Xiu's arms shouted excitedly.
After confirming that the painting Snow Child wanted to see was indeed "Eternal Smile", Valente said thoughtfully:
"But as an earthbound spirit, you cannot leave this zone. If you want to see it, If we get to that painting..."
"We have to go upstairs and take down the painting in person." Xia Xiu took over what Valente said.
"Well, this is indeed the only way."
Listening to the conversation between Xia Xiu and Valente, Xue Hai couldn't help but said excitedly:
"Meow, can you really take down "Eternal Smile", really meow?"
"We have to wait until night to take down that painting. Only at night when there are fewer tourists can we easily do it. "
Xia Xiu touched Xue Hai's excited head, then looked at the crowds of people around him and said slowly:
"If you want to get the painting, you must solve it. Monitors, security personnel, alarms.”
“Such a troublesome cat.”
"It just sounds troublesome, but it doesn't take much time to actually do it." Xia Xiu replied with a smile.
"Abraham, why do I feel that you are very experienced in these things?" Valente, who was listening on the side, finally couldn't help but said.
Why did he feel that the guy in front of him was very familiar with this kind of thing.
"That's your illusion. I've always abided by the law, and the petty thefts now are just for planning." Xia Xiuci replied sternly.
“Woof——”
Jiam next to Xia Xiu let out a low voice. He couldn't help but scream because he recalled what his boss usually did. His scream contained too much uniqueness. emotions, and after he shouted, he received a gentle kick on the butt from his boss.
"It's still a while before the sun goes down. Let's go outside and find a place to have a meal first. Let's start again after early morning." Valente suggested at this time.
"Of course there is no problem." Xia Xiu replied.
“Meow, you’re leaving, meow!!”
Xue Hai couldn’t help but become anxious when he heard that Xia Xiu and others were leaving.
After finally meeting a few people who could see her and understand her words, she was inevitably a little excited. But now that she heard that the other person was leaving, she naturally couldn't help but become anxious.
"Don't worry, we will be back in the early morning."
Xia Xiu rubbed Snow Child's head and then put her back on the ground.
"You wait here for us to deliver the painting. We have to leave first."
After landing, the Snow Child sat on the ground, staring blankly into the distance. There were two people and one dog, and her eyes quickly turned to the glass pyramid outside the Louvre. Through that layer of glass, there was the endless sky and the huge city under the sky.
Snow Child cannot see the end of the city, she needs to see the end of the world.
···········
Early morning: 00:02
The Louvre Glass Pyramid.
“Abraham, will the snow child really follow us after seeing the painting?”
Before taking the painting, Valente Bernard suddenly asked Xia Xiu who was following him.
Hearing Valente, Xia Xiu couldn't help but look back at him.
Under the illumination of the lights around the Louvre, the golden eyes of the blond young man looked into each other's brown eyes, and both sides saw some answers in each other's eyes.
Xia Xiu and Valente are really similar in some aspects. They can always vaguely detect something when they look at certain things.
It’s just that Valente is not as transparent as Xia Xiu, so he is inevitably confused when doing some things.
"This is not something that a [Dragon Slayer] should be confused about."
Xia Xiu noticed Valente's confusion, he stopped in his tracks and said seriously to him:
< br>"We just put the right to choose in front of her, Valente, you do have the virtues of a knight, you do have [compassion]."
The longer you get along with Valente , Xia Xiu realized more and more that the other party was a true knight. Even without the sword, Valente Bernard's soul and essence were as noble as the knight.
“Choose·······”
Valente seemed to recall the scene when he held the holy sword.
Yes, choice, all they have to face is choice.
The blond young man had already walked into the Louvre under the brilliant lights, and after Valente stood in the shadow of the lights for a while, he also walked into the light.
