If The Moon Can Be Counted As A Star - Chapter 47

Meanwhile, at the accessible space outside the kitchen hall on the side Doctor Frei overhead the conversation and he was disappointed. He left before he will smack Bai Biaos face. When Doctor Frei thought that he could give a slight trust to Bai Biao, he just ruined his chance.

As Doctor Frei got back from Xiao Mei Zhis room , Mister Shirong greeted him. “Silver Frei, I think I should take Bai Biao with me.”

“Ok. It would be better for the kids the have a young adult to accompany them when you are busy for instance like talking with another person.”

“Yeah. Also, why did I not see Doctor Gmeis and her companion?” Doctor Frei who does not want Xiao Mei Zhi to be disturbed ask Mister Shirong to go out from the room with him and he agreed. And now they are outside the room, talking.

“After what happened to us today, Doctor Gmeis took a leave from her work and find some clues about what happened to Misses Zhi.”

Mister Shirong raised an eyebrow, “Is that your ex-wife’s surname?”

“Yes. To make the long story short Mister Shirong, her body has not been found yet. Even the people that I sent there to check on, they found nothing.”

“Could it be that your ex-wife has done something that offended the vampires? And use your daughter as a bait to lure you out?”

“Possible. Also, I just noticed that they would not be that desperate if it was simply killing them. If they only wanted the kids. Then those vampires should not have pushed to fight.” Doctor Frei did not dare to mention Xiao Mei Zhi and Jingyis corresponding abilities. He wanted them safe and keeping some details hidden was much less of a problem.

“Were they trying to rebel over another mistake from the past?”

“It could be but it is a maybe. Still, it would be the best if I visit the witches on the Switz mountains.”

“Sounds like a good plan. I should also be cautious when I am with the children.”

“You must not let your guard down. Always keep an eye for Bai Biao. I do not want you to regret.” Mister Shirong giggled, “Why? Bai Biao is harmless.”

“Mister Shirong, sometimes the storms eye changes its direction.”

Doctor Frei then gets inside Xiao Mei Zhis room since he felt that the last phrase was enough to be a excuse to leave. He did not meant to interfere with Mister Shirongs good outlook with Bai Biao, you could actually tell that Doctor Frei was trying to be a responsible friend. Xiao Mei Zhi watched Doctor Frei as he entered the room, they were glaring at each other and sighed long, hoping to get some explanation for what had happened.

“I almost died because of you and this situation I am in,” Xiao Mei Zhi suspected Doctor Frei, she could even recall how miserable she was in the woods.

However, since she stayed in the Freis Residence, Doctor Frei always knocked on her door when the food has been delivered at her door. She could actually see that Doctor Frei was worried about her well-being, but there was no use in trusting people including him. The wound she got from the timbers was another streak for her to always stay further away from people, not to mention Doctor Frei.

“If only you have not forced me out from my room. None of this would happen. None!” Her anxiety acquired an escalation from trying to keep it to shouting it out and when Doctor Frei was about to respond back, Xiao Mei Zhi glanced at the door, “Get out!”

Doctor Frei did not give out any explanation for the time being because he can talk it out with Xiao Mei Zhi once she calms down. And when Doctor Frei closed the door as he stepped out from the room Xiao Mei Zhi wildly throws stuff inside. There was no use of letting Doctor Frei explain to her about what happened. She doubted him without knowing the fact that her father saved her together with Jingyi.

Xiao Mei Zhi peeked at her ankle that has a wound. She paused. There was only a scar. She expected to see blood, deep cuts and gory view from it. . then she heavily sighed and said, “I forgot, I am the only human here.”

Then a thought got her to stood up quickly, causing her head and body to wobble. ‘Jingyi.’ However, her sight started to get dimmer and dimmer on the sides. Probably because she stood up rapidly. ‘I must know-how are the children in the orphanage. . are they safe?’

Still, she needed more rest. She may not know that the witches that healed her was having a hard time, she got into that critical stage of where she was about to lose her life. The vampire that attacked Xiao Mei Zhi has poisonous claws that was the reason why her wound did not show signs of infection but her blood has been contaminated with venom.

Fortunately for her Qiji entered the room, “Oh my, no. Do not move a lot when you are still recovering miss,” she helped Xiao Mei Zhi walk back to the bed. She was getting sleepy.

“Do you have any news about the children in the orphanage?”

“Yes, I do miss. They are all safe.” Qiji had to lie since she does not want to alert the patient (Xiao Mei Zhi) next to her.

“Glad to hear that they are safe.” Xiao Mei Zhi nodded before she was knocked out by nobody.

Qiji then facepalmed, “Senior witches are smart to put a air refreshener exclusively for this human to go back to sleep in case she wokes up. Impressive. I should try to learn that sometimes.” She observed the sleeping Xiao Mei Zhi. She may look like a kid but just like Jingyi , she also has a part of her memory that can not be erased. Witches can not use their power for themselves.
