Chapter 367: The Leaky Paper Girl
"No. It's better that you came very timely."
Annan smiled and replied briskly.
He didn't ask where Nicholas had gone, nor how he found Zhi Ji.
Annan just made a soft and very soft voice, and politely thanked Zhi Ji: "Thank you for coming to save me... I don't know what will happen if he is taken away."
When Zhi Ji heard the words, she showed a gentle smile.
She rubbed Annan's cheeks up and down with her hands, and pinched it again.
"Yes, finally a bit of meat..."
Zhi Ji showed a satisfied smile and persuaded with a straight face, "But still remember to eat more.
"Although Noah is not as cold as winter, it won't be much worse in winter, and your body is weak. Don't eat more, won't you delay things if you catch a cold?
"Especially eat more meat. You are still growing, you don't have to worry about your figure, and exercising is much healthier than dieting... Are you exercising every morning and evening? I think you have advanced to the silver level, How's your Frost Swordsmanship going? Has it fallen?"
Hearing Zhi Ji's words, Annan's expression suddenly became a little weird.
How does it sound, this statement is inexplicably familiar?
There is a kind of hunger that makes your mother think you are hungry...
I always feel that the relationship between Zhi Ji and myself doesn't seem like the relationship between "partners"...
The sense of tolerance of the elders... a little bit like the feeling that Silver Sir gave to Annan before.
But there are subtle differences.
When Sir Silver spoke to Annan, he was far more cordial and distant than Paper Ji. It's like a neighbor's uncle, or a relationship like an uncle... just praise, not blame.
And Zhi Ji's attitude towards Annan is a bit like that of her sister, mother or teacher...
"What's the matter, Annan?"
Zhi Ji saw that Annan didn't speak, and then touched Annan's head worriedly.
She put her hands on Annan's head,
As if massaging Annan's head, he stroked Annan's smooth hair repeatedly and skillfully with his hands from his head to the back of his neck. And Annan squinted his eyes obediently, standing in place without resisting.
For some reason, Annan himself felt that this scene was a little familiar.
Like it has happened many times before.
It's like she is no stranger to her relationship with Zhi Ji...
...but that should be unlikely.
Earlier, Annan learned from Yin Jue that the old grandmother had always held a complicated feeling for this new god born from her own portrait.
It's not enough to say I hate it, but it's a clear dislike of it.
Because of this, Zhi Ji has never been to the Principality of Winter.
If Zhi Ji and Annan are acquainted, then it can only be what happened in the year when they traveled abroad. I am afraid that among the gods who protected Annan at that time, there was Zhiji.
Because Zhi Ji was originally a false god who traveled all over the place, and would not stay in a certain place for a long time.
He will travel around the world...walking between the real and the fake, selling paintings to support the poor painters who believe in themselves.
...but so it seems.
Although the old grandmother is a little estranged from Zhiji, but Zhiji seems to be very interested in the old grandmother?
Annan didn't think much of it.
He just shook his head and asked tentatively, "Do you know that I...may lose my memory?"
"You told me..."
Zhi Ji nodded and was about to say something when she suddenly seemed to remember something, and said apologetically, "Ah, sorry. I can't tell you right now... This may affect your determination."
"determination?"
"Well, it's related to the holy skeleton... I can't say more."
Not only did Zhi Ji not doubt Annan, but she comforted: "Don't think too much. You did this at the time, it was discussed with everyone, and it was confirmed after repeated consideration by several adults.
"Everything is in our plan, so far it hasn't gone off the rails. You don't have to be too nervous... Even if you lose your memory, you will get more than before."
"...Do I want to be recognized by a certain holy skeleton?"
Annan frowned tightly: "I wasn't an extraordinary person before? But if that's the case... how do I advance to gold?"
"Ah, I want to mention this to you."
When Zhi Ji heard this, she suddenly remembered something and added: "You don't have to worry about advancing gold first. Get your holy skeleton first... You don't need to sign a holy deed, just get it. In the case of the book and the holy skeleton, advanced gold is very important.
"You now have the reversed Heart of Winter, and you already have the qualification to sign a holy deed with several holy bones; at the same time, you also got a rainbow-colored soul, and the holy bones that fit you will meet sooner or later. You found it yourself...you just have to obey your heart."
Although he said, "I can't say more," but when Annan asked, Zhi Ji couldn't help but say a lot.
You didn't keep anything secret...
The sieve is leaking too much water... Even if I didn't ask carefully, I already have a general idea.
So that's it, is it for the holy bones?
This is indeed quite possible.
The former Annan, in the thirteen years of being infected by the Heart of Winter, has undergone tremendous changes in his temperament... This is enough to affect his mind and change his character, so that he can no longer be recognized by the Holy Bones.
This news is likely to be true, but not entirely.
According to his own character, he will definitely not tell all the information and information to the same person.
In particular, they will not casually tell others that information that is far beyond the limits of their abilities.
Giving someone a treasure map full of traps is also a crime of murder—something that is beyond the limit of the other party's ability, but at the same time is desired, is enough to ruin a person's life.
Although Annan occasionally used others and tried to murder enemies, he would not hurt friends.
So Annan can conclude that what Zhi Ji knows must not be the complete version - because she will worry about herself, what she knows must be a "safe version without worrying about Annan".
Specifically, I still have to ask Sir Silver...
Let's help Sir Silver deal with the rotten problem first.
With Sir Silver's character as a businessman who likes to hide his words, maybe the matter of dealing with the rotman has something to do with Annan's previous plan.
"Zhi Ji, do you know the person just now?"
"He is Nicholas, the second Hermes, the leader of the Fallen Way. Many Fallen were born through his hands... I heard that the Shadow Fiend is also with you. The Shadow Fiend is his student. ."
Paper Ji shook her head and warned, "You'd better stay away from him, too. He's a dangerous, crazy person."
"—but is he important?"
Annan asked in a deep voice, "Really?"
