Chapter 101 Waiting to Return
Seeing that she had become half-human and half-cat at some point, Lulu smiled wryly.In order not to frighten humans, she simply turned into the form of a black cat, turned around and groped back.

"Even, even if I don't have as much mana as before, I will protect myself and protect you, idiot Luoluo. Although Cang Yue is very powerful, I was always by your side no matter where I went before. , I will worry about you if I don’t see you.”

Lulu muttered softly, a cat was walking on the deserted streets of Winterfell.

"I don't know how the monk is doing now. I always feel that he is very reluctant now. These two guys are really serious, and they don't let me worry."

She walked for a while muttering like this, and the surrounding street lights began to go out.Winterfell in the middle of the night was like an empty city, only three or two crows flew over her head.

Lulu suddenly remembered the ghost story that the monk had told her before, and she couldn't help feeling a little scared.She tried her best to run faster so that she could leave this nasty city.

The cat's night vision ability allows her to easily see the dark streets and alleys.But within a few steps, the rumbling sound from her stomach made her feel even more wronged.

When I left, I forgot that all the food was in Luoluo's place. At that time, I was only thinking about calming down, but I had already forgotten to bring out some food.

"I'm hungry again, so annoying. I must eat ten meat buns when I go back."

Along the way, like a psychopath, she kept talking about various things to divert her attention, trying to make herself forget what happened tonight.

But such behavior didn't seem to be able to resolve the depression in her heart.It didn't take long for the tears to well up again, and it wasn't until her shrill cat meowing resounded through the streets and alleys that she seemed to feel a moment's peace of mind.

When it was almost dawn, the hungry and sleepy Lulu arrived at the gate of Winterfell.Tired, she slumped on the chair and planned to rest her feet, but unexpectedly, she fell asleep as soon as her head touched the park bench.

She didn't wake up slowly until the morning sun in Winterfell City rose and warmed her body.

Licking her palms and stretching her waist, Lulu planned to buy a ticket to go back to Aurora City immediately, and then think about the rest after returning to the store.

Just as she was thinking about it, an old voice beside her interrupted her thoughts.

"Little cat, are you waiting for someone too?"

Lulu, who just woke up, was startled, and suddenly became sober.She looked at the old man who did not know when she appeared beside her, smiling kindly at her.

"He won't know that I'm not an ordinary cat, will he?"

Thinking of this in her heart, Lulu shrank back.But found that the old man in front of her did not have a normal conversation with her, but talked about his own affairs.

"It seems that this human being can't understand what I'm saying." Lulu thought so and didn't avoid him anymore.Seeing that it was still early, she planned to accompany the poor old man.

Maybe it was because the old man was too emotional when he told the past, maybe it was because Lulu couldn't bear it, the more she listened to it, the more she didn't want to leave.Seeing that the windows of the station are about to close.Lulu closed her eyes in despair.

"Forget it, it's not too late to leave tomorrow."

Looking at the old man who left the scarf to her and left tremblingly, Lulu obviously didn't buy a ticket, but she couldn't help but smile, and her heart was full of relief.

It wasn't until the cold wind picked up in the middle of the night that Lulu realized that she was too naive.

"Damn, why would I do such a stupid thing." The trembling Lulu complained that night, wrapped in a scarf, "Tomorrow, tomorrow I will definitely leave here."

Lulu, who secretly swore in her heart, closed her eyes in the cold wind and depression.When she opened her eyes again, it was already the next morning.The old man was still sitting beside her, looking in the direction of the city gate from time to time.

"The weather is really rare recently. I don't know if the weather in Sanqingcheng is so good, if there is any wind, and if there are big waves on the beach."

Lulu looked at the old man, ignored him, put the scarf in his hand, and turned to leave.

"Little cat, are you leaving?"

Lulu meowed at him twice as farewell, but at that moment, she saw a trace of disappointment in the old man's eyes.

"Damn it." Lulu yelled inwardly, walked a few steps towards the station but backed away, and returned to the old man's side.

"Are you reluctant to part with me?" The old man laughed and patted her head.

Lulu meowed, but she couldn't help shouting in her heart: "I don't even know what I'm doing."

"You are really a gentle cat. Like Ayun, you have a kind and gentle personality."

"I'm not gentle at all, I'm irritable." Lulu couldn't stop complaining in the cat's language, but saw that the eyes of the old man were full of regret.

"It seems to be such a sunny day. My wife, Takumi's mother, passed away."

"So you are the only one left in your family." Lulu looked up at his sad face.

"It was more than ten years after Takumi left us. At that time, I was still working, and Ayun was waiting here all day. For more than ten years, she has been waiting here every day like I am now, hoping Let Takumi come back. No matter it is windy or rainy, she never misses a day."

"At that time, I was still holding a breath in my heart, and I always said angrily, 'Since he doesn't want to come back, don't come back.' Although I said so, I would secretly put it in the lunch box she went out every day. Put an extra meal."

"Actually, I also hope that Ayun can receive him back. But I didn't expect Ayun's illness to get worse every day. In the end, she couldn't get out of bed anymore, but she still missed Takumi."

Lulu couldn't bear it, she rubbed her head against the old man's palm, the old man touched Lulu's head with red eyes, and looked at her.

"After Ayun left, I was the only one left. I knew it was her last wish to wait for that bastard to come back. So after I retired, I came here and waited for him. Maybe one day he is willing to come back. It's not good, I can't go on, I will always come back."

"I'll be back." Lulu looked at the old man in front of her and said silently in her heart.

"But maybe I can't wait for the day when he comes back. I'm getting old, and my health is getting worse day by day. If I can, I really want to wait until he comes back while I'm alive. Tell him, Dad, that's just angry words, Dad and Mom, I want to wait for you to come back. I have been waiting for you for many years."

It was a bit windy, Lulu looked at the deserted streets of the city, and silently lay beside the old man.At the station outside the city, trains pass by one after another.But until the sun set, still no human came in from outside the city gate.

The old man looked disappointed at the slowly closing station, stood up, took out a blanket and a meat bag from the cloth bag, put them beside Lulu, got up and left.

"He will come tomorrow. I really don't know how long this kind of day will last."

The stars light up and it gets dark again.On this cold winter night, wrapped in a blanket, Lulu tried her best to bite the meat bun, looked at the station that was only one step away from her, and couldn't help sighing.
