Chapter 264 Father-Daughter Dialogue

Although I had confirmed the direction of the river bank, I could not feel Anna's heartbeat.

But in his heart, Winfres Morgan has always been worried about the 'illusion' that flashed just now, and the light in his skull was flashing extremely abnormally, as if he was trying to give him some kind of difficulty with the repeated bright and dark bands. Enlightenment of understanding.

"Is it really just a momentary illusion?"

"Did Anna really appear on the river bank just now? She had been kidnapped and left the hospital by some people?"

"Someone has accurately measured the range of my mind perception, and also mastered a method to deceive the rhythm of my heart, avoiding my detection?"

Winfrey didn't dwell on this dilemma for too long.

A minute later, he opened the first drawer under his desk and took out a gray bone fragment.

This bone fragment is exactly the same as the bone fragment in Anna's hand.

In Anna's understanding, this is a Pokémon newly developed by her father, which allows her father to communicate with her remotely.

But only Winfreth knew that this was the skull of the Heart Beast that he bought at an auction at a great price, and it contained a power that could not be erased by the sands of time.

Even if it is held in the hands of a mortal with no power at all, it can still be used to communicate with the other half.

He tapped the bone fragments lightly with his fingertips, and the other half of the bone fragments in the distance should also make the same tapping noise - that was a secret signal that only the Morgans and their daughters knew.

However, after the first call, there was no reply for ten seconds.

But Winfres was not discouraged. It was already late at night, and his dear daughter was probably already asleep.

But even if the slight sound of the bone fragments could not wake Anna from her sleep, Sinead, who was responsible for the care, could feel the rhythm and gently wake Anna up.

So he knocked a second time... Within ten seconds there was still no reply.

At this time, Winfreth's brows finally furrowed deeply, and his brows were filled with strong doubts and anger that was about to explode.

He was determined to knock a third time. If he still didn’t receive a reply within the agreed time...then I would personally lead the team to Cross Road Hospital immediately!

clatter--

Just when Winfres tapped his fingertips and tapped the first syllable of the third call, the bone fragments were already vibrating slightly on their own. The vibration frequency was slow and weak, and seemed to be a little intermittent.

He seemed to be able to see little Anna who had just woken up. Before she even fully opened her eyes, she was tapping the bone fragments in a daze to reply to his message... If Anna had not been affected by the curse, she must have been yawning at this moment. While rubbing his sleepy eyes, he said coquettishly in a lazy tone as if he had just gotten up:

"Dad...are you calling me? Why are you still not asleep so late?"

"Dad...Dad, why don't you speak? What happened?"

The big stone that had been weighing on Winfreth's heart was finally put down, and even he didn't notice that his eyes hidden behind the lenses began to become slightly moist.

He immediately tapped the bone fragment and replied: "It's okay, Dad just missed you suddenly."

"Hmph! Dad, you always tell me to have a good rest, and I have told you so many times to go to bed early at night! Don't always sit at that desk, and occasionally get up and move around..."

The bone fragments trembled slightly as if they were playing syllables. It was obviously just a monotonous syllable without any emotion, but Winfrey seemed to be able to see Anna's little face bulging with life in the distance.

"I assume you must be sitting behind your desk now, too?!"

"Humph! If dad doesn't obey me and take a good rest, then I won't sleep tonight either!"

The lethality of his daughter's slight anger to Winfreth was equivalent to Bede's blade piercing his chest.

He immediately put on a flattering posture - even though Anna was still lying on the bed in the Royal Free Hospital at this time, his pitiful and aggrieved expression could not be seen at all.

"Yes, Anna's guess was absolutely right!"

"But actually, Dad just lay on the bed and was about to fall asleep... But before going to bed, he suddenly wanted to talk to my little Anna, wanted to hear little Anna's voice, and wanted to hear little Anna say to dad. Good night... So, Anna, can you grant dad this little wish? "

"Then daddy, you must sleep well - good night daddy, boo!"

Listening to the last monotonous syllable from her daughter, Winfres seemed to be able to see her daughter's intimate gesture.

After he said good night in reply, the shaking of his bones finally stopped.

But Winfres still had a happy smile on his face, and the fatigue of the past few days seemed to have disappeared. He looked at the bonsai on the table and murmured: "Anna, just wait for dad for a few more days. It's almost time. Everything is almost ready." Ready..."

………………

In a wasteland beside the bend of the river, Anna Morgan was lying on the back of a deformed boy, her fingertips slowly tapping the bone fragments, and did not stop until she said her last good night.

The strange and skinny bird slowly stood up from the pale hair. As the bird's wings stretched, all the pale hair fell off, like silver threads scattered all over the ground.

………………

Sinead woke up in a daze, and there seemed to be still a violent buzzing and terrible scissors in her head.

She opened her eyes drowsily and instinctively wanted to get up from the floor. However, no matter how hard she tried to push herself up, she could only barely bend her spine and could not really get up at all.

But the next second she felt a burning pain in her shoulders, and when she looked down she saw that her arms had disappeared!

There were traces of bites on the broken shoulders, but the remaining flesh and blood also showed faint charred marks from the flames.

"What happened?"

Sinead shook her heavy head, and the weak light in her skull rekindled. She suddenly woke up, recalled the incomplete memory before she fainted, and turned her head to look at the empty bed.

"Miss Anna is missing!"

"Kaido and Connor have no news, and they are likely to have died... and I was also seriously injured... but why didn't the attacker kill me directly, but spared my life instead?"

"Attacker, where is he..."

Sinead suddenly stopped thinking, and she was horrified to find that she knew nothing about the attacker's appearance. The memory of herself fainting on the ground in her mind was a hazy fog, and she could not penetrate the dark shadow at all.

But the window glass was clearly damaged, and it was obvious that the attacker attacked from here. There were also several identical footprints left in the pool of blood on the ground. Therefore, there was only one attacker, and judging from the size of the shoe prints, the other party should be about five point seven feet tall.

And judging from the injuries on my shoulders, the other party obviously gnawed off my two arms with his teeth... Such behavior is very consistent with the gluttony of the cup phase, and only the cup phase loves to eat the flesh and blood of other secret disciples so much.

There are still traces of high temperature baking on my wounds, and it is obvious that the other party also has the heat of the casting phase!

Judging from the missing memory, the attacker obviously also has the power of forgetting... This should be the ability of abandoning and forgetting that the moth phase is best at.

And being able to erase my memory so easily... The other party must be a senior moth phase above the third level!
