After the male protagonist

Is this... being tricked?

The people in this small town want to arrest him for some unknown reason, or they want to arrest outsiders, so isn't he doing what they want now?

A thought flashed through Keriya's mind, and his whole body moved.

Now he is not controlled by others, the light in the room is not too bright, but it is enough.

Keria's sudden attack was unaware of the two people inside. When facing Keria's attack, A Fang didn't even react, but in just two seconds, A Fang's left hand was already captured by Kerry. Asia behind her back.

The old woman let out a short "ah".

It is very difficult for ordinary people to attack again in this state of A Fang. Klia stood behind A Fang and pressed his back with his right hand, causing A Fang to fall to the ground.

Face the ground.

"you……"

As soon as Keriya looked away from A Fang, he felt the people under his hands start to struggle.

A Fang didn't seem to feel that his joints were being controlled by others, and Keriya even heard a slight "click".

He suspected it was the sound of dislocated bones.

Keriya's status will be restored to half, and it is an irrational choice to depose this person now.

After he hesitated for a moment, Ah Fang had already broken free, and the two of them started fighting again.

A Fang's strength is not top-notch, and his attacks are also very rough. Most of his attacks Keriya dodged, but once he collided with Keriya's flesh, Keriya could feel a burst of force from the place where the flesh touched. When he came over, his hands ached from the vibration.

This is the first time Keriya has encountered such great strength.

Head-to-head confrontation in this state is not good for Keria. Keria has encountered many enemies and quickly changed his strategy.

The two of them fought fiercely, and the old woman on the bed sat up. She looked at the two and stretched out her hands, not knowing what to do.

She saw her grandson's body distorted to an extent that ordinary people could not do. She saw her grandson hit the ground with a fist, so hard that the bones even broke through the skin and exposed.

"Stop, stop, don't cough, cough, cough..." The old woman was too anxious, and coughed one after another before finishing a sentence.

The two people who were fighting fiercely should have not heard the small call to stop, but A Fang stopped in place as if the pause button was pressed.

Keria took the opportunity to distance herself, guarding against him.

Ah Fang showed no signs of doing anything again.

He stood there, facing the old woman, watching her keep coughing dryly.

The light was not bright enough, and Keriya couldn't see A Fang's expression now, but felt that the relationship between the two of them seemed very strange, and A Fang seemed very indifferent now.

When he first came in, he thought that the person in this room was A Fang's owner, but he didn't expect it was just her grandma.

The two get along but are not as good as the usual grandparents.

The old woman slowed down and called out, "A Fang, come here and let me have a look."

Ah Fang walked over and leaned against the bed.

The old woman reached out and touched A Fang's body, just like an old man who hadn't seen him for a long time was stroking his grandson.Then she raised A Fang's hand in front of her eyes, hushed him, and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"

Somehow, the old woman was already in tears.

Ah Fang replied: "It doesn't hurt."

Kelia watched the two of them get along with each other from behind, and wondered if A Fang was a fool, otherwise why would the old woman react like this?

However, when he thought of A Fang tempting him to answer, he gave up his thoughts. A Fang could not be a fool, on the contrary, he was still very smart.

The old woman held A Fang's hand and wept for a while before finally recovering.

During the whole process, A Fang watched her cry indifferently, without speaking or moving.

The old woman turned her gaze to Keriya: "What do you want to do?"

Hearing this, Kelia sneered: "This is what I should ask."

I haven't been here for more than ten years, not to mention that the number of people in this town has decreased, and it has become a place that cannot tolerate outsiders, even though this place was not much better more than ten years ago.

Keria said: "I just came to this town for business, and I can't get out if I want to go out. I just want to ask what you guys want to do to me."

The old woman lowered her head, and when she looked up several times, all she saw was her grandson standing in front of her with a blank expression.

The room was not very big, and Keriya was standing behind A Fang, in front of her.

She looked at Keriya's normal face, and then at her grandson's pale face.

After going back and forth like this several times, the old woman suddenly covered her face with her hands and began to cry again.

Keria: "..."

Keriya opened her mouth, not knowing which words she said touched the depths of her heart.

It is impossible to ask him to comfort him, he has never comforted anyone, and he does not know how to comfort him.Besides, the old woman's grandson is still here, so it's not his turn.

The old woman cried for a long time, and her grandson just watched her cry.

Keria became impatient: "Have you cried enough?"

He doesn't like the people in this small town. Respecting the old and loving the young won't work for him.

Probably no one has ever treated her like this before, the old woman was overwhelmed by Keriya's words.

The old woman looked up, but she didn't know whether she was looking at Keriya or her grandson. She lowered her head again and said softly, "A Fang, you go and guard the door, don't let anyone in."

A Fang turned around and left without asking why.

There were only the two of them left in the room.

Keria said: "You can say it."

The old woman lowered her head, as if she was sorting out her words, before she spoke after a while: "To some people in the town, you outsiders are like spirit beasts."

This answer was within Keriya's expectations but also beyond his expectations. It's not like no one has mentioned such a theory.

There are only a small number of people who raised and agreed with this theory. Those people were labeled as "heretics" by most people, were beaten and killed, and became rats in the gutter just like the death knight.

Then fade away.

Keria didn't respond.

On the contrary, the old woman was quite surprised: "Is this the only reaction you have?"

Keria sneered: "It's really something that can be done in this place."

"This kind of thing never happened in the small town..." The old woman looked towards the door, "A Fang...my grandson, he is."

The old woman said something that surprised Keriya.

"He is my contract...beast."

This was something Keriya never imagined, someone would be so cruel that they would treat their relatives as experimental subjects, as those mindless spirit beasts, and let him become their contracted beast.

Keria hooked the corner of his mouth, thinking he should say something now.

Before he could say what he was supposed to say, the old woman went on.

"You have been in contact with A Fang, you should have noticed it."

Keriya thought of A Fang's pale face, and the breath he couldn't feel.

"He is a living dead... No, he is already dead." The old woman said, "When a person is weak, he will try his best to become stronger. If there is a way to become stronger, he will will stand on it." No matter what thorns there are on the road.

But what if the path is flat and a shortcut?

Some people will judge whether there are any traps on this road, and then make choices carefully.

However, this old woman is a different kind of person. With such a shortcut in front of her, she directly took her grandson to stand on it.

It wasn't until the old woman couldn't enjoy the family happiness that ordinary people should have that she began to regret it, but it was too late.

A few years ago, a group of outsiders came to this town, and they lived in this town for more than a month, "corroding" part of the people in the town.

Those who will stay in this town are those with no ability. They have tasted the sweetness, and that group of people made big cakes again. Most of the people in the town took the initiative to walk into the trap set by that group.

The old woman's son and daughter-in-law were dead, and she and her grandson depended on each other for life, and she didn't want her grandson to leave her. The old woman turned her grandson into a "contract beast" according to the method taught by the group.

Ah Fang is dead, but he is not dead.

He has become a "human" without life and consciousness, but still has a trace of consciousness. He only obeys the old woman's orders.

"So? Isn't everyone happy?" Kelia said, "Your grandson will never grow old and die, and will always be by your side. Shouldn't you be satisfied?"

The old woman didn't seem to understand Keriya's sarcasm, and she begged, "So can you take A Fang away? Leave this small town and go wherever you want."

"What about after leaving this small town? He is no longer a human being. Do you want me to take him into hiding?" Keria sneered, "Why don't you ask his opinion? You turned him into a What's the use of repenting now that he's neither human nor ghost?"

The old woman shivered, panting for a few seconds and coughing again.

What Keriya said was exactly what the old woman didn't want to think about. Even if she was about to die, she didn't dare to think about this problem.

Kelia looked at her: "After you die, won't your grandson be free? If you let him follow me, don't you just let him jump into the next fire pit?"

The "pit of fire" that Keria referred to was himself, and what the old woman said to him did not look like she was trying to set her grandson back free.

"No, it's not." The old woman lowered her head slowly and covered her face with her hands, "This town is the real fire pit, no, it's the sea of ​​fire."

Over the past ten years, many people who deserved to die died, and many people who did not deserve to die also died, so the old woman learned a lot.

After the owner of the "contracted beast" dies, the "contracted beast" will be transferred to other people, who will be recognized as the new owner, and those "contracted beasts" usually have no good end.

The old woman was about to die, and her little conscience was aroused again at this time, so she thought about finding a way out for her grandson.

Even if it is someone else, after hearing the old woman's heartfelt confession, there will always be some compassion.

But it was Keria she met.

Keria said, "Why?"
