Chapter 599 Lucina Is Also Afraid Sometimes

The next morning.

Lucina opened her eyes dazedly, the wound on her side still aching. She frowned and climbed out of bed. The sunlight outside the window was quite dazzling.

"Chen Ke?"

She tried to call, but no one paid attention, so she grabbed her clothes from the small stool beside her, put them on hurriedly, and got out of bed.

She walked down the steps barefoot, making a creaking sound. The room was very quiet, and there was no one. She pushed open the door of Diana's room. The bed was empty, and a bad thought lingered in her heart.

She was really unfamiliar with this place. 1888 was not her home. The unprecedented tension was like a bug gnawing at her patience.

"Fuck... Fuck..." Lucina was very nervous. She hurriedly ran towards the door, and the floor was thumping.

Just as she reached out to grab the door handle, the door opened, and she saw Diana and Parker walking out of the Dream Center holding a bunch of Walmart shopping bags.

Lucina smelled the aroma of fried chicken and hamburgers, and saliva immediately secreted from her mouth, wrapping her fat tongue. She swallowed her saliva.

"Hey! Lu! Are you awake?" Diana smiled, walked sideways, and put the paper bag in her hand on the table.

Parker smiled at Lucina, took out a hamburger from the bag and handed it to her.

"You... went to Walmart to shop?" Lucina was surprised.

"Chen Ke went to Opportunity City to do something and brought it back." Parker said.

"Oh... did he find the person he was looking for?" Lucina asked.

"Not yet, but let's not talk about this now. How long have we not eaten junk food?" Parker said.

Lucina looked at the hamburger in her hand and put it on the table.

"What? Don't want to eat? This is not like the Lucina I know." Diana sat at the table, holding two pieces of fragrant chicken in her hands and stuffing them into her mouth.

"Where is Chen Ke?" Lucina asked.

"After he opened the door for us, he went to deliver food to Jacob and the others. I think they should talk about something by the way." Parker said.

"Jacob? Oh... forget it, I don't know him anyway. How long will he be back?" Lucina looked at the two of them, her expression a little anxious.

"I don't know either. You look anxious? What's wrong?" Diana asked.

"I have something very important to tell Chen Ke, very important!" Lucina clenched her fists, and the wound on her waist and abdomen hurt more. She squinted and sat on the stool.

"You'd better eat something, Lucina. You are the only ordinary person among us. You stayed in the Dream Center for a long time before, so you can withstand the pain and hunger, but it's different now." Diana said.

"I am... a fierce woman like a tigress! Ouch... hiss..." Lucina just protested when her body protested. She covered her abdomen and groaned.

"You are like a big cat with a sprained foot now... Don't speak too hard, and don't lift your thigh too high." Diana said.

"Diana, aren't you a witch? Do you still need to eat?" Lucina said sarcastically.

"I can feel hungry, so I guess witches also need to eat. Ah... Even if I don't need to eat, I still have to eat. Who doesn't like fragrant chicken..." Diana laughed.

"Fuck... It's actually fragrant chicken... I thought it was Popeyes' fried chicken meal..." Lucina said disappointedly.

"The Popeyes store is outside Walmart. Chen Ke and I opened the door from the toilet at that time, so we could only buy some food inside. You should be glad that Chen Ke actually has a lot of Lianbi in his hand, so he can buy nothing." Parker said.

"Except for money, he lacks everything..." Lucina held her forehead and grabbed a burger and started to eat.

Chen Ke pushed the door open at this time, holding these two large books in his hand. After seeing Lucina, he moved a chair to sit next to her, put the two books on the table and pushed them to Diana, and then put his right hand on Lucina's shoulder.

"What is this?" Lucina curiously tilted her head to look at the gold-plated words on the book.

"Oliver Twist and A Tale of Two Cities, Dickens's masterpieces." Parker rushed to say.

"I heard that Chen Ke was going to the British Library this morning, so I asked him to help me borrow two books from there... um... the kind that don't need to be returned." Diana said.

"You asked him to help you steal things?" Lucina was a little angry.

"It's just a small favor. I'll help you get whatever you want." Chen Ke said.

"Oh, so thoughtful." Lucina smiled and leaned into Chen Ke's arms.

"Don't you have something to tell him?" Diana asked.

Chen Ke looked at Lucina, then at Diana, not knowing what tricks they were playing.

"Come here." Lucina suddenly stood up, grabbed Chen Ke's arm and walked upstairs.

Chen Ke was confused and followed her upstairs. As soon as he entered the door, Lucina slammed the door shut, then looked at Chen Ke uneasily, with a look of heavy worries on her face.

"Lucina, don't tell me you want to do that now... This room has poor sound insulation." Chen Ke said.

"No... No, Chen Ke, that Poloz, I think she has a problem." Lucina said seriously.

"Poloz? The woman next to Ivy? Didn't that girl take good care of you?" Chen Ke smiled and sat on the bed.

Lucina took Chen Ke's hand and sat next to him.

"She is a pervert, Chen Ke, I don't want her to touch me anymore." Lucina said.

Chen Ke saw a trace of fear on her face, but it was not the kind of fear of being strong, but pure fear.

"You are afraid sometimes?" Chen Ke couldn't help laughing.

"You actually laughed?" Lucina frowned.

"She is fine, I have confirmed that she is not a psychic, nor an alienated individual, nor any other ghost thing, she is just a normal person." Chen Ke assured.

Most of the strange things are invisible in Chen Ke's eyes, and the information pop-up window will pop up after he sees strange things. The slightly more powerful ones will also appear under the target's feet for a long time with the name, like a striking mark.

"No, no... I'm not talking about that!" Lucina shook her head.

"What did she do to you? It's just helping you treat a wound once." Chen Ke was puzzled.

"She hurt me on purpose..." Lucina looked at Chen Ke, a little embarrassed.

"Huh? Hurt you?" Chen Ke's mind appeared a strange picture.

"She deliberately pressed my wound and said some strange things... She seemed to like seeing me in pain. She is definitely a pervert!" Lucina said seriously.

"What did she say to you?" Chen Ke asked.

"She wanted to see what I looked like inside, probably like this, guess what it meant inside?" Lucina said angrily.

Chen Ke also became serious when he heard this. Some jokes can't be made casually, and as a woman, how could Poloz say it so bluntly?

"Have you severely reprimanded her mother? You know, this is the territory of the thieves group... It's inevitable to run into some bad people." Chen Ke said.

"I... I don't dare." Lucina lowered her head.

"Don't tease me... You are not afraid of Asra, but you are afraid of her?" Chen Ke felt that something was wrong, and this matter was definitely not simple.

"I don't know, I have no temper in front of her... She has a very strong aura that makes me breathless. I can't wait to punch her in the face now." Lucina said irritably.

"Are you sure you're not kidding me?" Chen Ke confirmed again.

"I swear, Chen Ke." Lucina nodded.

"She will help you change the medicine tonight, right? I'll hide and see... If she really has a problem, I'll go find Evie." Chen Ke said.

Lucina finally felt relieved when she heard this. She sighed, and a stone in her heart finally fell.
