Upstairs, after Xia Yi tidied up the classroom, he also cleaned the office next to it.

The sludge monster is a female, so it is inconvenient to live with him, so it would be better to separate.

Although the office next to it is only a quarter of the size of the classroom, it should be enough for a sludge monster.

Now go call the sludge monster and pack up your things. There are still some things you need to get from Hong's house.

It was getting dark outside and the corridor was dim. Xia Yi went downstairs holding an oil lamp.

When we arrived in the yard, the moonlight was bright.

He placed the oil lamp on the ground and walked around to the back of the building.

In the distance, he saw a shadow standing next to the table, chairs and bench.

He spoke from a distance: "I cleaned up two rooms, let's..."

Xia Yi was going to say that he and the mud monster were in the same room.

But at this moment, he saw the true appearance of the figure under the moonlight.

It was a girl wearing a black dress.

Hearing Xia Yi's voice, the girl turned to look at him.

The girl's beautiful face made Xia Yi stop in his tracks.

He was ready to continue admiring it, but the girl was startled.

A large amount of mud emerged from the shadow under her feet, wrapping her up.

She turned into a sludge monster.

"...?"

Xia Yi thought carefully, analyzed calmly, and came to a conclusion.

My sludge monster turned out to be a girl!

Xia Yi walked up to the silt monster and said kindly: "I have tidied up two rooms. We live in one and the other is used to store sundries."

The mud monster tilted its head to look at Xia Yi.

"Come on, let's go up." Xia Yi looked cheerful.

The sludge monster picked up the thing next to it.

"Let me go." Xia Yi stopped her.

The sludge monster took two steps back, a little scared.

Xia Yi first lifted a small wooden table. The wooden table was a bit heavy.

In addition to the wooden table, there are two wooden chairs, which are also heavy objects. The other miscellaneous things are also very troublesome to pick up.

Xia Yi quickly gave up on Lianxiangxiyu and said to the mud monster: "It's better you do it."

The sludge monster wrapped the thing into its body and went upstairs with Xia Yi.

Xia Yi put away his things absentmindedly and looked at the mud monster.

The figure just now was very familiar to him. It was the appearance of the girl in the dream by the well.

The mud monster is not a monster made of mud, but a girl wrapped in mud?

So what he reached into the mud and touched before...

Xia Yi coughed in embarrassment.

No wonder the sludge monster hit him and ran away.

After seeing the true form of the silt monster, Xia Yi looked at the silt monster again and felt that the silt was now more beautiful and less ugly than before.

Xia Yi had many things he wanted to ask the silt monster, but he didn't know how to ask them at the moment.

Forget it, let’s talk about it tomorrow.

After eating stolen biscuits for dinner, Xia Yi lay on the quilt.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he remembered the appearance of the sludge monster and couldn't fall asleep.

Turning sideways, Xia Yi waved to the mud monster.

The sludge monster came to him.

He stretched out his hand and touched the sludge monster's body.

The sludge monster that had been dodging before did not run away this time.

Xia Yi tried to go deep inside, but was hit by the mud and his hand was pushed out.

Hey, it turns out you are only allowed to touch the outside.

Xia Yi gave up on the mud monster's body and reached out for the mud monster's arm.

He touched deep into the mud monster's arm, and the mud monster used mud blast again, trying to push Xia Yi's hand out.

"Don't move!" Xia Yi said.

The mud monster was stunned for a moment, and Xia Yi took the opportunity to reach in with half of his forearm and touched the palm of the mud monster.

It was a soft, slender palm.

It feels very comfortable to touch.

This is the second most comfortable thing Xia Yi has ever touched.

Xia Yi coughed and said to the mud monster: "What I said to you yesterday at the Hong Family Mansion does not count."

The sludge monster looked down at him.

Xia Yi felt a little confused.

He always thought that the sludge monster was an ugly monster, and he was also wary of the sludge monster being evil to him. He never thought that the sludge monster's true form would actually look like that.

The slender body, fair skin, long hair hanging down to the waist, and that cute face are all in line with Xia Yi's aesthetics.

Although Xia Yi’s aesthetic is just beautiful.

Xia Yi's palm moved, and he rubbed the sludge monster's palm, causing the sludge monster to want to take back his hand, but he held on tightly to prevent her from escaping.

He inserted between her fingers again and intertwined their fingers tightly.

The sludge monster is a little troubled.

While playing with the sludge monster's palm, Xia Yi took out "Nini's Diary" and read it by the light of the oil lamp.

The diary is full of a father's love for his daughter.

For example, this one:

"May 2, 1923

Nini is getting more and more beautiful, and she is well-behaved and smart. She heard the legend from Japan today that she wants to fold a thousand paper cranes and give them to me. Alas, such a lovely daughter, I don’t know which man will take advantage of her in the end.

』

Xia Yi flipped through it quickly and could read one page in a few seconds.

Until he turned the page to 1928.

"May 4, 1928

Xiaodong's health is getting worse and worse. She always wants Nini to accompany her, but she doesn't know that Nini will cry for a long time every time she comes out."

Xia Yi deduced from previous diaries that Xiaodong was the mother of the sludge monster.

"May 16, 1928

It rained heavily tonight, but Xiaodong still left. The peony that she had been thinking about for a month bloomed in the morning after she left. What a shame, this flower is so cruel! I wanted to cut it, but Nini saw things and missed people.

, if you don’t want to cut it off, just let it live.”

Did the Sludge Monster's mother actually die?

So who is the lady in the mansion?

And what about the brother and sister who are about the same age as the sludge monster in the dream world?

Is it the stepmother and the illegitimate child?

Xia Yi continued to turn back.

"September 18, 1928

Nini has always been depressed in recent months. Her tenth birthday is coming soon. I asked someone to buy a popular doll from the United States. I hope she can like it.』

This is the end, everything from now on is blank.

Why don't you remember it?

If you marry a new wife and have a new child, then you don’t care about the old one?

Putting down his notebook, Xia Yi had many doubts in his heart.
