Chapter 751

The handkerchief is a bit smelly?

After hearing the muffled reminder from his younger brother who was covered, Leon suddenly remembered that his handkerchief seemed to have just been used to wipe the "treasure" discovered by Melanie, so he hurriedly put the handkerchief away, rubbed William's face vigorously with his sleeve, and dryly laughed to cover it up:

"Maybe it wasn't dipped in water; I'll go wash it first... Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma, where is the water?"

"Let me do it."

After looking at Leon with a slightly reproachful look, Auntie Auntie Ai Ma, who had finished wiping her daughter's face, did not expose the secret of Leon's handkerchief, but waved at William, and then used the part that was not stained with mud to start wiping his face again.

With the blessing of the cleaner's powerful body control, Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's movements were gentle and slow, seemingly not using any force at all, but the mud on William's face was constantly disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And after seeing this scene, Melanie, who was suffering from "torture" on the side, could not help but protest again:

"Sister Anna, look, it's clearly possible not to use so much force; or should I first..."

"Or you should shut up and sit still, or I will deduct the pocket money for the week after next week; you choose!"

"Oh..."

After Anna violently suppressed Melanie's uprising, little Ellie, who had turned back into a little porcelain doll, curiously approached Leon, looking at this big... uncle who made people want to be close to him for no reason.

"What's wrong?"

Although he knew that little Ellie was not a real child, but an anomalous object born from Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's longing for her daughter, looking at the little girl who was timidly wanting to be close to him, Leon's heart still surged with pity.

After squatting down slightly to make his line of sight level with little Ellie, Leon asked with a smile:

"Do you have anything you want to say to me?"

"Hmm..."

Still not used to communicating with people older than herself, after blinking timidly, little Ellie could not help but look back at Auntie Auntie Ai Ma, then under her encouraging gaze, gathered her courage:

"I... I drew a picture a few days ago, it's... it's of you, I want to give it to you..."

Drew a picture of me?

After hearing little Ellie's words, Leon could not help but be startled, then nodded with warmth in his heart and answered with a smile:

"Then thank you... where is the painting?"

"The painting is in my room..."

Seeing that Leon did not refuse, little Ellie could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, then her two little hands subconsciously tugged at her skirt, and she said embarrassedly:

"If the painting is not very good-looking, are you still willing to accept it?"

"Of course I am willing."

Looking at little Ellie, who was completely different from the two troublemakers in his family and was so well-behaved that it made people's hearts ache, Leon could not help but touch her head through the wide-brimmed soft hat, then stood up, took her little hand wearing gloves, and made a gesture of invitation with a smile.

"Dearest Miss Ellie, are you willing to take me to appreciate your work?"

"Willing!"

After getting Leon's positive response, a big smile appeared on little Ellie's face, then under the gaze of Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's gentle eyes, she took Leon's hand and entered the inner room, handing a somewhat wrinkled drawing paper to Leon.

In the center of this painting with immature brushstrokes was a square frame that looked like a lying coffin, with a big dark hole opened on it; in front of the square frame, it was as if wastewater from a paint factory had been discharged into the river, with all kinds of colors.

And three long-strip tentacle monsters linked by lines were floating on these dazzling color blocks, performing some kind of evil ritual around a round thing that was still burning with fire.

So... where am I?

Not wanting to say that he didn't quite understand, Leon could only bite the bullet, point to the only element he could identify and praise:

"Not bad, the use of color is very bold, and the style is also very avant-garde... that, what is this fire?"

"It's a candle!"

It's actually a candle!

Leon, who got the information, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then guessed all the way based on this information.

Is this round thing with horizontal bars in the middle, which looks like a barrel containing fuel, a... birthday cake? Are those long-strip tentacle monsters people holding hands?

Could it be that the colorful color blocks under people's feet are the garden? Is the lying coffin the small wooden house? So the true meaning of this painting is actually people who came to celebrate her birthday, holding hands and dancing around the birthday cake in the garden?

"Seems... seems not quite like it... I'll change it!"

After looking up at Leon in front of her, and then looking down at the long-strip tentacle monster on the painting, little Ellie's face turned slightly red; she hurriedly took the painting back, put a black coat on one of the tentacle monsters, and then clicked two points at the position that was probably the face, drawing a short arc bending downwards as a mouth.

After changing Leon's image, she simply went all out, drew a tree in the garden with a crayon, added a tentacle monster that was touching a bird nest on the tree, and under the tree was a tentacle monster with hands on its hips, looking up angrily. And on the other side of the tree, in a place that looked like a bush, there was a small tentacle monster that had drilled half of its body into the bush and was twisting its butt hard, drawing the whole family of tentacle monsters... Leon's family.

"This time it seems... seems a little better..."

After drawing a few small black grains next to Melanie, hinting at the precious treasure she found from the secret passage, little Ellie, who had completed the second creation, finally breathed a sigh of relief, then with a red little face, handed this painting that looked very abstract to Leon.

"Give it to you, thank you for coming to celebrate my birthday."

"You're... you're welcome..."

After the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, Leon took this "Tentacle Monster Sewage River Rampage Picture" with a very avant-garde artistic atmosphere and put it away, then squatted down and smiled:

"I like your gift very much, and I also have a birthday gift to give you."

"Really?"

After hearing Leon's words, little Ellie said with surprise in her eyes:

"What is the gift?"

"It's not time yet~"

After smiling mysteriously, Leon didn't take out the fireworks and pyrotechnics he had ordered overnight, but asked:

"Ellie, before giving the gift, can you take off your gloves and shake hands with me?"

Shake hands?

After hearing Leon's words, little Ellie hesitated slightly, then nodded timidly, took off the gloves used to block the sun, and put her tiny palm into Leon's palm.

【Name: Sorrow of Precious Flower (Soul, Life and Death, Reflection)】

【Appearance: A well-behaved girl who can grow up normally but can only appear in the vicinity of Precious Flower Manor, and will temporarily become transparent when exposed to too much sunlight】

【Ability: Soul Constancy (Limited), Resurrection from Death (Limited), Prayer Reflection (Area Limited)】

【Cost: None】

【Archive: After discovering that the execution against the Baohua family was inevitable, in order to let her daughter survive, Auntie Auntie Ai Ma Alman used the location of the Baohua family's secret treasury as a price, asking Lei Nade Kuke to protect her daughter Ellie Alman.

In order to obtain the wealth accumulated by the Baohua family, Lei Nade Kuke agreed to this deal, but after confirming that the location of the secret treasury was true, worrying that he would be disliked by the King for protecting the remnants of Baohua, he directly tore up the promise and personally threw the less-than-one-year-old Ellie Alman into the lake to drown...

When the ignorant soul returned to the world with her mother, Ellie Alman, who lacked a physical body, could not be resurrected and was about to dissipate completely under the irradiation of sunlight.

In order to keep her last family member, Auntie Auntie Ai Ma Alman's strong wish actively split part of the power of "Sin of Baohua," combined with the souls of a large number of clansmen with similar bloodlines who died, and created this special anomalous object that can only be "used" in Baohua Manor...】

【Evaluation: When with "Sin of Baohua" Auntie Auntie Ai Ma Alman, she should have obtained the ability to grow and complete herself after six hundred and sixty-six extra physical deaths, but because she lacks the original body, this trait can never take effect】

【Infection value: 0.1】

It's about the same as I guessed before, but it seems to be even better.

After finishing the "explanation" of little Ellie, Leon could not help but smile, the shiny button on his cuff flickered slightly, and a tiny children's firework appeared in Ellie's palm.

Immediately afterwards, 【Dream Intruder】, personally crafted by the third-generation Director, was activated, and a dream-like flame appeared quietly, igniting the tiny colored paper like petals at the end of the firework, and a small cluster of brilliant fireworks sprayed out from the gaps of the petal-shaped colored paper.

"Wow!!!"

"The real gift should be too late today, so I'll give you this first."

After holding Ellie's tiny palm and teaching her to draw circles in the air with the bright spot at the end of the firework, Leon looked at little Ellie, who was full of surprise in front of him, extended his right little finger to her, and said with a smile:

"If Ellie can do me a favor, when blowing out the birthday candles tonight, make a wish for Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma to accompany you at home for a whole day tomorrow, then I will give you a better gift; what do you think?"
