atypical edge one

Chapter 1

The child has been living in the forest outside the village.

Because he was weird, the villagers threw him into the forest and left him to fend for himself—which is probably just a nice way of saying it.

Leaving an unarmed child in the forest is tantamount to letting him kill himself.

But Yuanyi survived.

Not only did he survive, but he also built himself a log cabin deep in the forest.There is no shortage of daily food in the forest, but he will return to the village in the dead of night to steal some clothes and other necessities.

While stealing things, he would hear the chatter of some villagers—Yuanyi didn't mean it, he just had too keen hearing, and the whispers of those people were within his hearing range.

"A lot of people died in the village."

"Could it be those two monsters? We lost something in our house."

"I have already said that they should be locked up!"

The following words were meaningless angry curses, Yuan Yi didn't listen any more.

He is more interested in the "monsters" in the village population.

Will it be the same existence as him?

Someone with the same ominous lines on his face?

With subtle curiosity, Yuanyi, carrying the necessities he stole, came to the place where the "monster" was held by the villagers.

His movements were light and he didn't make any sound.

Inside the huge cage were two girls embracing tightly, who seemed to be the same age as him.

Their faces were covered with blood, wounds, and several bones were broken.

Under the transparent field of vision, Yuanyi carefully looked at them for a while.

The girls were awake, but they were just shivering, and no one made a sound.

The heart beats faster and the blood flows faster.

In Yuanyi's eyes, the girls have changed.

Why does my heart beat faster?What is this performance?

Enichi, who grew up in the forest, was confused.His understanding of human emotions is still a blank slate.

At present, Yuanyi just knows that he cannot appear in front of the villagers, otherwise he will be attacked.

But in his understanding, this is the same as the wild beasts in the forest. When they appear on their territory, they will attack Yuanyi.

"The bone needs to be corrected, otherwise it will be affected in the future."

It was Yuanyi who spoke first.

The two sisters in the cage, Nanako and Mimiko, are terrified.

I don't know when, the village began to publicize that they saw unclean things, and then their parents left, and the two of them were locked in a huge cage, just like a disgusting disgusting thing. Three meals a day depends entirely on the mood of those adults.

They are terrified of everyone who comes in.

However, someone unexpected appeared.

In the middle of the night, a child without hostility appeared in front of them.

This boy was very strange to them, someone they had never seen before.

The boy has long black hair with a shawl, and a strange red line on the upper right side of his face, from his forehead to his right eye.The clothes are very simple, just simple clothes.

But he has a pair of clean and clear eyes, a bit as pure as the deer Nanako and Mimiko once saw by accident.

"Are you...Enichi?" It was Mimiko who remembered the rumors about this boy in the village first.

A boy with ominous lines on his face who was thrown into the forest as a child to fend for himself.

...didn't expect him to be alive.

Yuan Yi didn't speak, just nodded.

"Can you help correct it?" Mimiko asked softly.

The boy put the supplies aside, took a few steps forward, and then stretched out his hand. He looked at the girl and motioned her to stretch out her legs.

Nanako hesitated for a moment, but followed suit.

When Yuan Yi was setting her bones, she took a deep breath in pain, but she didn't dare to make too much noise, for fear of disturbing the adults outside.

"Okay." Yuan Yi straightened her bones neatly, then got up, picked up the supplies, and prepared to leave.

"Will you come next time, next time?" Mimiko asked eagerly.

This thin kindness is like the faint sunlight in the heavy snow, but... very warm.

"Yes." Yuan Yi didn't look back, but gave an affirmative answer.

The boy's life is too monotonous. He has never learned to speak to anyone before, and these are all he learned when he secretly listened to the people in the village.The communication with Mimiko Nanako was a novel experience for him.

In the dark night, Yuanyi carried the necessities, used tree trunks or branches as footholds, and returned to his wooden house deep in the forest at an incredible speed and height.

No wild beasts will attack here, because they all acquiesce that this is Yuanyi's territory.If they invade, they will be killed as rations.

It is impossible for the people in the village to come to such a deep place when they enter the forest, because they will die among the herds.No one can pass through the Beast's dwelling into the depths of the forest, day or night.

Except Yuanyi.

"So you lived in the forest? It's amazing." Nanako didn't dare to speak too loudly, she lowered her voice, but her eyes could clearly see the admiration for Yuanyi.

The boy thought it was normal, but he didn't know how to respond, so he had to be silent.

Fortunately, Nanako and Mimiko didn't pay too much attention to his bad words. From their point of view, it was already good that he would appear in front of them at night to bring some food and not insult them.

"Rice ball." Yuan Yi remembered the name of the thing he took from a certain kitchen, he repeated it, and then handed the two cold rice balls to the sisters.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Mimiko and Nanako were a little moved, but they still asked Enichi first.

"Bring it to you."

Receiving Yuanyi's affirmation, the two sisters started to eat rice balls without thinking about thanking them.They ate in embarrassment because they were so hungry.It doesn't matter to them whether the rice ball is cold or not, as long as it is something that can fill the stomach.

Later, Yuanyi continued to visit Nanako and Mimiko at night, but not every day.

But when he came, he would bring some food so that the sisters would not starve to death.

The boy thought that the days would pass like this, until one day, standing on a tree, he saw a huge monster appearing in the village.

The huge black monster roared and roared.

"Nanako? Mimiko?" he muttered to himself.

Then, with a movement of his body, using the branches to exert strength, he came to the village for the first time in the daytime, and then Enichi ran straight to the house where Nanako and Mimiko were imprisoned.

When he opened the door, the scene he had been worried about did not appear.Nanako and Mimiko are fine, and they were released from their cages.

There was an extra person in the room that Yuan Yi didn't know, a man with long hair and long narrow eyes in a white shirt.

Yuanyi smelled that he had the same smell as the black monster outside.

"That monster is yours." Yuan Yi said with an affirmative sentence.

"So you can see it too?" The man's tone was unexpectedly soft.

Xia Youjie looked at the boy who suddenly opened the door and barged in with gentle eyes.

The child can also see the curse spirit outside, and he is his compatriot just like the two sisters.

Moreover, he escaped the attack of the curse spirit and came here unscathed. He is a talented person.

But... because of the stupidity and cruelty of those monkeys, his compatriots suffered like this.

Sure enough, his choice was right.He shouldn't continue to suppress himself, he Xia Youjie should choose his [sincerity].

"Master Xia You, this is Yuanyi!" Nanako said excitedly, "He is just like us!"

"Yes, Master Xia You, he was abandoned by the village before and has been living in the forest." Mimiko added.

Xia Youjie looked at the thin boy in front of him with a gentle expression. He squatted down and tried to look at Yuanyi at the same level.

"Don't be afraid," he said softly, "We can all see the same thing, Yuanichi."

... the same thing?

The boy blinked.

The direction of blood flow, the heart beats vigorously again and again.The structure of the bones, the distribution of muscles...does everyone see the same as him?

"But they all said that Nanako Mimiko and I were monsters." Enichi calmly described this fact.

"Because they are ignorant fellows who are afraid of people who are not like them."

no the same?Doesn't it mean that everyone sees the same things?

Yuan Yi was a little dazed.

"Aren't you afraid?" Yuan Yi thought about it, the difference between him and other children should be the lines on his face.But neither did the man in front of this pattern.

"Of course not." Xia Youjie smiled.

"Are you going to come with me?" Xia Youjie sent out an invitation.

"Yeah!" The two sisters nodded vigorously, their eyes shone with incredible light, "We will follow Master Xia You!"

"Me too." Yuan Yi replied.If Mimiko and Nanako go, he should go with them.It doesn't matter to him where he lives anyway.

Xia Youjie drove the three children and left the village.

"Has Yuanyi always lived in the forest?" Xia Youjie asked the boy sitting in the passenger seat in a warm voice while driving.

At this time, Yuanyi was still fiddling with the seat belt curiously. He heard Xia Youjie's question, but did not look up, "Yes, in the forest."

The two girls, Nanako and Mimiko, were already asleep in the back.They were too exhausted, and fell into a deep sleep after the excitement of being rescued passed away.

"You will live with me in the future, and we can create a beautiful and clean world together."

Yuan blinked and didn't reply.He said he did not understand.

The man glanced at Yuan Yi and saw Yuan Yi's blank expression. He smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, I will explain it to you slowly in the future."

"What are we going to do next?"

"I'll take you to tidy up first, and then buy some clothes."
