Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

Chapter 352 This is food! Hao Chi!!

"...Are we still a step too late?"

In the silent night, a white figure passed back and forth among the dense trees, and finally stopped on a relatively open lawn. She looked around and sighed slightly.

The white-haired girl murmured in her heart: "But judging from the traces left at the scene, this time it ended more hastily than before, perhaps..."

Thinking of this, the girl said loudly in the quiet woods: "Although I don't know who you are, I know you are still hiding here and haven't left yet. I am Yun Chen, the Lord of Yae Town. I have many questions to ask you. I wonder if you would be so kind as to come to the Lord's Mansion for a chat?"

"..."

“Only a fool would go there…” Rin, hiding in the tree, stuck out his tongue silently.

Kallen: "......"

There was no answer. Under the night sky, there was only the low sound of the cold wind of early winter blowing through the branches of the evergreen trees.

Kallen frowned slightly, but her voice did not decrease at all: "Am I overthinking?"

The woman with snow-white hair hesitated for a moment, then raised her head and looked around. After confirming that there was no suspicious aura, she left without hesitation.

——She fled quickly, but concealed her breath and turned back quietly, finding a tree top with an excellent view and, like Jiang Ming and the others, completely blended into the shadows.

It was already past midnight, and the sounds of wind, leaves rubbing against each other, and occasional barking of dogs from the distant old town gradually reached my ears.

The lord of Yaemachi just closed his eyes quietly.

Time passed slowly, ten minutes... twenty minutes... forty minutes... She was sitting steadily among the branches at the top of the tree as if she had fallen asleep.

Rustling——

Until a small but unnatural voice broke the peace, Lord Kallen raised his eyebrows: "Finally you can't wait any longer...? But you are too cautious, you made me wait for so long."

She had already determined the direction almost as the sound rang out, and in the next moment, the white figure originally on the branches of the tree had disappeared.

"Come out!"

“Aiya——!”

Kallen shouted sternly, and stretched out her left hand like a white rope, but the result did not seem to be as expected - she held a slender white wrist in her left hand, and a pink-haired woman in gorgeous clothes was pulled out of the woods in a slightly embarrassed manner.

"Huh? Who are you?"

The distance between the two of them at this moment could be called zero. Karin's sky-blue eyes were fixed on the girl in beautiful clothes in front of her. From the perspective of Jiang Ming and Lin, she was almost being held in her arms in a domineering manner.

"Wow... I saw something good!"

Jiang Ming couldn't help but let out a soft cry, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.

"I am worthy of being the one who can come up with such a brilliant idea, hehe."

"Hehe, father is really smart! Rin likes father the most."

Lin tried hard to open his eyes wide, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in his sea-blue eyes. He looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him excitedly.

The weak pink-haired girl didn't dare to offer any resistance. She closed her beautiful eyes in fear, not daring to look. Her slender eyebrows bent slightly, and she spoke in a pitiful and pitiful tone.

"Please, please spare my life. I have nothing and I am just passing through here on my way home."

Because the girl lowered her head, Karen couldn't see her face completely, so she frowned and asked: "Go home? At this time? Are you lying to me?"

The pink-haired weak girl swallowed her saliva in fear, her breathing was a little disordered: "I...I am the dancer of the Nevernight City..."

When [Yun Chen] Karin heard the three words [Bu Ye Tian], she frowned slightly. Of course she knew what a dirty place it was, but she did not pursue it.

"Looking at her gait, she doesn't look like someone who knows martial arts." The girl thought to herself, and then said, "Lift your face up."

In fact, without waiting for the other party to respond, she had already reached out and gently lifted the woman's chin. The unexpected situation made her feel a little anxious, and then...

"Why...are you...here?"

Kallen's eyes widened instantly, her heart pounding, and she looked at the pink-haired girl in front of her in disbelief.

"Eh?" Xia blinked in confusion. She had no idea why Karin suddenly said such a thing.

Even a big shot like Karin was shocked and her heartbeat quickened. Her breathing became increasingly rapid, and she murmured, "No, you are not her. It can't be her."

The expression on Xia's face changed from fear to worry. She wanted to get some information out of him: "What are you talking about?"

However, Kallen seemed not to hear her voice and continued to mutter in a low voice. Then she suddenly raised her head and looked at Xia, asking loudly.

"But these fox ears... who are you?!"

The moment their eyes met, the white-haired girl who ruled over the entire Yae Town fell into unprecedented chaos.

This face that shouldn't have been here caused a dull pain in the depths of her memory.

"Well......"

The girl pulled her hand back and held her forehead as if she had been electrocuted. The burning pain hit her brain again and again, as if something was trying to break out of its shell.

Xia put her hand on Kallen's cheek, trying to calm her down, and asked in a worried tone: "Are you... okay?"

Unexpectedly, Karen was very emotional. The pain and anxiety in her mind deprived her of her calmness. She suddenly waved away the white hand extended by the pink-haired girl and shouted: "Don't touch me!"

Then she staggered back a few steps, turned around hurriedly, and disappeared in a few leaps.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Xia suddenly turned to look at Jiang Ming, and said in a somewhat unfriendly tone: "Is this also within your calculations?"

"Ah... How could it be..." Jiang Ming dodged the other person's gaze, trying to fool her, while muttering to himself in his heart: "After all, even I would not have expected that this face would shake her to such an extent... It seems that Karen knows Xia, but Xia doesn't know Karen...?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming prepared to change the subject. After all, he and Lin had already tasted the good stuff.

"Ahem... The unexpected pursuit by the city lord was indeed a very critical situation, but fortunately, it was safe and sound, and we have successfully obtained the three strands of [Living Souls]."

"Then we just need to find a way to get Mei to tell us how to use them. We should be able to find the hidden location of the [Hell] curse seal. It's almost time for us to go back. We can't keep Miss Raiden Mei waiting for too long."

"What? But that Kallen obviously knows—"

"Come on, Lin, let's compete with mother to see who gets home first!" Without waiting for Xia to ask, Jiang Ming took Lin and ran down the mountain. Lin also raised his hands and agreed: "Great! Come on, father! Come on, mother too!"

Xia: "(?_? )......"
