Annie is performing more and more missions.

Even Mother Rose couldn't see how this girl accomplished these tasks.

Annie's body has been staying in the room not far behind her.

But no matter how brilliant or mysterious the task she completed, Mistress Rose could see that she was just a tired child.

Moreover, he was still a little patient who made her feel distressed.

Especially after she and Ken Servais, who was rumored to be a "Rose Member" by the outside world, completed a mission about the annoying mad dog Harry, she disappeared for two days.

When she came back again, her condition was even worse than before.

When Mistress Rose saw her for the first time, she couldn't see the emotional fluctuations in her eyes at all.

She was just like a doll, casually thrown to the side of the road by someone.

"She is different from you back then. She is a child who needs to be taken care of."

"You don't need to tell me so much, boss... I'm just curious about what this new sister looks like, and I have no intention of asking for information about her."

The always anxious bald man wiped his big smooth head in embarrassment. He looked at his watch, stood up and said goodbye: "Then I'm leaving, I won't disturb you."

"Go ahead."

The man slowly left the simple hut.

Once again, only Mistress Rose was left in the hall.

She looked at the direction the man was leaving with a pleased smile on her lips.

That man is the child she raised.

These children all know that Mistress Rose is most relaxed when she is alone.

Because the system of Rose Flower is not suitable for bondage.

The more bonds there are, the more danger it means.

Mother Rose is at her most powerful when she is alone.

A man like this, who comes here by chance for a brief and non-private conversation, can be regarded as someone with whom he still has a close relationship.

"Um......"

The woman walked to the door, opened the white curtain, and looked at the sky.

The sky is overcast.

Even so, the sky outside is much brighter than inside.

She didn't feel dissatisfied with the children's choices.

She knew that these children were chosen for her own good.

Humans are social animals.

When living in groups, scattered forces one after another will unite together, creating a sense of security.

And if a person has too much power compared to others, then other people around her will only become her weakness.

Suddenly, she heard something, closed the door curtain, walked quickly to the simple wooden door, and slowly pushed it open.

Inside the house is a small house that looks quite cozy.

Two single beds over two meters long.

The bed is covered with clean brown-gray bedding.

Several bookshelves with some books.

Some boxes and cabinets are used to store personal belongings.

This place is really terrible for her identity.

She's not someone who cares about this.

Moreover, the stronghold of rose flowers is destined not to bloom long.

Each stronghold is equivalent to a temporary residence.

The base she is in is no exception.

Her eyes caught sight of other items in the room.

Gold watch.

gold jewelry.

Large diamond ring.

These look like the stuff of the nouveau riche.

There are also some books that she can't understand.

Bones of intelligent creatures.

An oil lamp.

These look like things carried by occultists or warlocks.

Things that are incompatible with each other in the two styles all belong to another resident here.

The girl was shivering and huddled in the corner of the room.

Her long gray hair was messy and scattered on the ground.

Even though Mistress Rose helped her comb and maintain her hair in the morning, the top of her hair was still so dry that it had split ends, as if it had aged in a very short period of time.

Both her hands were wrapped in bandages.

Mother Rose knew that as long as those two hands were exposed to a little light, they would quickly decay like a corpse without blood and nutrition supply.

Not only that, this girl's body is obviously much thinner than before. When Mistress Rose first saw her, her body was still normal and she looked full of youthful vitality, but now she is as thin as if she was malnourished.

The skin color is green with yellow.

Her whole body shivered and she huddled together.

The scattered eyes were full of fear and confusion.

Anne.

Mother Rose doesn't know how this girl became like this.

She thought that the time when Annie would have feelings of disgust, inferiority complex, and extremely strong self-destructive tendencies when seeing people was the most serious period of her illness.

But after the contact between this girl and Ken, Mother Rose realized that she was wrong.

There must be triggers that she didn't understand at all, which caused this girl's condition to become more and more serious.

The woman did not approach the girl immediately.

She knew that the girl was in her most vigilant state and also her most vulnerable state. Any stimulation would hurt the child.

"Don't worry, it's me."

In a soft voice, she spoke as gently as possible:

"I am coming."

The veil was thrown aside by her, revealing her face.

Anne's distracted eyes slowly turned towards Mistress Rose.

Her body visibly relaxed a little.

Seeing this, Mistress Rose slowly walked forward, skillfully placed her hand on Annie's shoulder, and patted Annie's shoulder gently.

Anne leaned into her arms like a well-behaved little animal.

The fear on Annie's face slowly disappeared, like a young swallow that had found a safe haven.

Mistress Rose looked at Anne who was as cute as a little animal, but her expression gradually turned serious.

This is the first time Anne has been so well-behaved.

This also means that Anne's consciousness of self-thinking has disappeared.

Obedient snuggling is the deepest desire of the subconscious mind.

Even Mistress Rose couldn't help but feel disappointed in her eyes at this moment.

Anne lost her ability to take care of herself.

Maybe.

It's time this girl was sent to a place that would take children with this condition.

Black Crow Dervishes.

When Mother Rose was deep in thought, a soft voice from her arms interrupted her thoughts.

"Mother."
