He Always Wanted to Kill Me After Saving the Sick Girl - Chapter 88

Bai Zhi is a top puppeteer in the industry.

The reason why she is said to be the top in the industry is that nowadays, the puppeteer’s profession has long been lonely. By the generation of Baizhi, she is the only puppeteer left in the world.

There is no harm if there is no comparison. What’s more, she is still a dead house without any social circle, and she has no access to the novel toys of today’s world.

Bai Zhi walks in his castle every day, looking at the weird gadgets he makes, and sincerely feels that they are real works of art.

These dolls have clockwork on their backs. As soon as you twist the bar, the little dolls will chat and run around in the castle. Although they are awkward, they may even bump into each other frequently, but they are very lively.

Bai Zhi is very satisfied with this——

Can make such a cross-age puppet, she deserves to be her, a genius puppeteer with amazing talents.

“However, it’s a little regrettable.”

When a certain night fell, Bai Zhi was lying on the terrace, watching the noisy puppets around him, suddenly feeling a little lost.

Although these little guys are very cute, they can’t speak human words after all, let alone understand what she is talking about.

It would be great if there was a doll who could communicate with her on an equal footing…

The little puppet at her feet made a sound of running out of clockwork while flying around her ankle. Before Bai Zhi bent down to lift it up, it stopped abruptly.

“Oh, is this broken?”

Bai Zhi lifted the still little doll, touched its belly like a doctor treating a patient, and opened its eyes to take a look.

“It seems that something went wrong… Forget it, fix it.”

However, even though she said so, in fact, she was a little bit unsure in her heart. After all, this puppy was not made by her herself, but from the handwriting of her dead father.

As an orthodox and talented puppeteer, Bai Zhi’s father is much better than her. He was able to make many lively and realistic little dolls, such as this broken puppy doll, which was given to Bai Zhi by her father on her tenth birthday. Bai Zhi also gave the puppy an extremely perfunctory name-“Wang Wang”.

After all, Wang Wang is 8 years old now, and he is just a mature “old boy”.

Bai Zhi hugged the puppy doll and left the terrace, step by step into the dark and quiet basement.

It stands to reason that the basement at night will be a bit horrible, not to mention that Bai Zhi’s basement is full of doll eyes and limbs. But Bai Zhi grew up watching these things, and to her, these parts are much more cordial and lovely than the crows outside the castle.

The calm and composed Bai Zhi lighted a kerosene lamp, and then put the bark on the workbench. She walked to two huge coffin-like rosewood boxes side by side, raised a kerosene lamp in one hand, and leaned over to blow a sigh at one of the boxes.

Thick dust accumulated on the box, and when she blew it like this, the dust floated everywhere like snowflakes.

“Dad should put the tools in it…”

Bai Zhi looked at the delicate silver lock on the box and touched his chin with some confusion.

Puppy dolls are made with special old tools. Because I think the past craftsmanship was too cumbersome and cumbersome, Bai Zhi just learned it for a short period of time before giving up. When my father was still alive, the tools and materials of the last century were put away. After he died, all these things were sealed up.

Because he didn’t need it, Bai Zhi never opened the two boxes of his father. If it weren’t for today that she had to use the tools in it to repair the bark, she wouldn’t want to toss herself looking for these old things.

Bai Zhi walked out of the basement helplessly, and quickly returned with a bunch of keys.

The keys to both boxes are here. The point is, which box is the tool she wants?

Bai Zhi leaned over and knocked on two boxes respectively, and finally picked one that sounded heavy. The key was inserted into the keyhole, making a crisp sound, she blown away the floating dust around, and slowly opened the dark lid of the box——

A clear and beautiful black-haired teenager was lying quietly inside.

Bai Zhi: “???”

This is… a corpse? A corpse hidden in the box? !

The poor puppeteer was frightened and stupefied, and the whole person was stunned. After staring at the young man with a blank brain for a while, she finally gathered up the courage and poked the young man in the cheek.

It’s soft, very delicate, and feels like human skin, almost to the point of being fake.

That’s right, it’s true.

and many more. Is this…?

Recalling the extremely contented state of his father before his death in his mind, Bai Zhi immediately fumbled on the boy’s body like a chicken blood.

Her fingers began to shuttle from the boy’s hair, followed the veins of the human body all the way downstream, and finally stopped above the belly button.

“Is the clockwork here?” As she muttered to herself, she unbuttoned the shirt there, revealing the boy’s flat white belly.

I saw a slight bulge in the middle of the lower abdomen where the belly button was supposed to be, and it turned out to be a key-shaped silver clockwork.

“Sure enough… this is a doll made by Dad!”

Bai Zhi yelled in excitement, and the fingers dangling over the mainspring were screwed up without hesitation——

Click, click.

The clockwork made a delicate mechanical sound.

In the next second, the delicate doll boy opened his eyes.

Bai Zhi couldn’t help but startled slightly.

It was a pair of dark eyes that were purer than the night and deeper than the deep sea.

The doll boy blinked slowly and mechanically, then slowly sat up and looked up along the hand that Bai Zhi placed on his stomach.

Finally, he stared blankly at Bai Zhi.

“Who are you?”

Ah, is it because you just woke up? I’m not very fluent in speaking. But he is so cute.

Bai Zhi looked at the puppet boy in front of him with enthusiasm, and only felt that no part of him was imperfect, and no part was fascinating.

“I am your master.”

The little girl put her cheeks in her hands and answered with a smile.

“Master?” The doll boy repeated without any emotion.

“Yes, whoever owns you, you will call my master from now on.” Bai Zhi tilted his head and looked at him. “Yes, I have to give you a name.”

What name should I give? Do you want to have her last name?

Bai Zhi was about to think about it seriously when a name suddenly flashed through her mind.

What’s going on… This is a feeling of nostalgia.

“Quarterly…”

She suddenly laughed, “Just call you Jiyue?”

The doll boy blinked: “Jiyue?”

“Does it sound good?” Bai Zhi raised his hand and gently stroked his soft black hair, “I don’t know why, I always think this is your name. It’s decided, you will be called Jiyue from today!”

She looked happy and missed, her expression faintly mixed in a trance that she didn’t even realize.

The doll boy nodded: “I remember, Master.”

In this way, the life of the puppet master Bai Zhi and the doll Ji Yue began.

＊＊＊

“Jiyue, don’t bully Wang Wang.”

After Wang Wang made a grieving sob for the third time, Bai Zhi finally shouted helplessly to Jiyue not far away.

Ji Yue picked up Wang Wang with one hand and turned his head blankly to look at Bai Zhi: “Master, I did not bully Wang Wang. I am helping him fix his hind legs.”

Bai Zhi: I believe in you to have ghosts, do you think I am blind!

Looking at the “one person, one dog” in front of her, she couldn’t help covering her face, with a desperate sigh in her mouth.

I have to say that since the addition of Jiyue family members, the castle has become more lively.

Jiyue is different from those animal-type dolls that only squeak. His appearance is no different from that of humans. Although in many places he will be as innocent and ignorant as a newborn, but with a little guidance from Bai Ju, he can learn very well.

But what makes Baizhi a headache is that his personality is the same as that of a child.

As the saying goes, children are a combination of angels and demons, and Jiyue is the same.

When he is obedient, he is as beautiful as an angel, and he is worse than a demon when he is bad.

It happened that he was the only one in the world, extremely precious automatic puppet, Bai Zhi was so precious to him, he couldn’t bear to teach him.

It didn’t take long for Jiyue to become even worse-such as bullying Wang Wang like today.

“You are not a puppeteer, how can you fix the bark.”

Bai Zhi stood up from the wicker chair, walked over and rescued Wang Wang from Ji Yue’s hands.

“Stop tossing these little guys, go and trim the roses in the garden.”

Ji Yue watched Wang Wang whimper in Bai Zhi’s arms and sighed slightly.

His learning ability is really strong, and in a short period of time, he has learned such a human expression.

“Okay, Master.”

Ji Yue leaned obediently, took out the big arrow and walked into the garden.

Bai Zhi continued to sit on the terrace, carefully inspecting Wang Wang from the inside out. After making sure that Jiyue hadn’t broken it down, she went to the study to find out her favorite romance novel, and revisited it with relish.

Until three or four in the afternoon, the clear and blue sky suddenly darkened. Soon, the tiny raindrops fell down.

“Ah, it’s raining.” Bai Zhi rubbed his wistful eyes and looked out the window. Outside the study window is the scenery around the old castle. After seeing the rain-wet woods, Bai Zhi suddenly stood up.

No, Jiyue is still in the garden! He is a puppet. The inside of his body is full of precision machinery. If it gets wet in the rain, it will break!

Bai Zhi was shocked and walked out, hurriedly ran into the garden.

Sure enough, as soon as she rushed into the garden, she saw her obedient doll boy carefully trimming the pure white roses. The rain wet his hair and clothes, but he was indifferent, and there was still nothing on his face. expression.

It’s really just a puppet without any feelings or emotions.

A burst of distress suddenly surged in Bai Zhi’s heart. She gritted her teeth, ran to Ji Yue quickly, and took his hand.

“Idiot, hurry up and follow me into the house!”

Jiyue did not move: “No, master. I haven’t trimmed these roses yet.”

“What kind of roses should be repaired, and you will break it if you take it down!”

Bai Zhi was anxious and pulled him hard, but the puppet’s strength was much greater than her, and she couldn’t affect the puppet at all if the other party took the initiative to cooperate.

“Broken? What is broken?”

“Oh, you are…!”

Seeing the rain getting bigger and bigger, Bai Zhisheng was afraid that the rain would seep into the clockwork of the quarter moon, so she had no choice but to hug the doll’s body tightly.

The doll’s body is soft and cold, as well as the wet and cold breath of rain.

Really, why should she accompany a doll in the rain?

“Master, what are you doing?” After a short pause, a doll’s voice came from above.

“I’m protecting you.” Bai Zhi said in a bad mood.

“Why does the master protect me?”

“Because you are important!” Bai Zhi couldn’t help but raise his head and give Ji Yue a blank look. “Don’t ask so much why, hurry up and come in with me.”

However, strangely, she did not hear Ji Yue’s response.

Ji Yue just lowered her eyes slightly, staring straight at her, motionless. After a few seconds, his body made a sizzling mechanical sound.

Bai Zhi suddenly panicked: “What’s the matter? Where did the water get in?”

Ji Yue blinked her eyes lightly.

“Master, I seem to…”

Bai Zhi was so anxious that he almost cried: “What does it look like? You just say it!”

“I seem…broken.”

Accompanied by a slight and distorted clockwork, the doll suddenly lowered his face.

The cold lips were mixed with rain, silently falling on Bai Ju’s eyes.

Bai Zhi was stunned for an instant.
