Infinite Transmigration Starting from Violet

Right now, I would feel guilty if I made a move on a girl whose feelings for me are still unclear.

Lu Ye gently patted the girl's head.

"Speaking of which, why did you think of putting a collar on me?"

"Because puppies need a leash so that the little boy won't run away when he's holding it."

Lu Ye blinked, somewhat confused.

"The old woman told me that the rope was the connection between the little boy and the dog, and as long as the 'connection' was still there, the dog and the little boy would not be separated."

"That comic book..."

Lu Ye suddenly realized.

He thought Violet had recently developed a strong interest in the cats and dogs on the street.

But that's not the case.

It wasn't that the girl awakened some strange or unusual attribute.

Everything she did was actually telling a story.

do not leave Me.

do not leave Me.

And—don't leave me.

Violet gently pursed her cherry-colored lips, as if she had made up her mind.

She extended her tightly clenched right hand, in the palm of her hand was a brass key.

She inserted the key into the collar's lock, just as Lu Ye had done for her before.

“Hey, if that’s the case, the little boy will have to be separated from the dog,” Lu Ye said.

“I spoke to the dog on the street before, but it ignored me. I think the dog couldn’t understand the little boy.”

Violet lowered her head, like a child who had done something wrong.

"So... if the little boy really wants to separate from the puppy, then the puppy should give up."

At this moment.

No, she might have realized it even earlier.

—The fact that I am the little dog.

The little boy will leave with his family, leaving behind a lonely puppy.

But the puppy will still survive.

Her reflections over the past few days have made her realize this.

The room was quiet, with only the slight click of the key turning the lock.

In the cold night, my heart seemed to crack slowly, in sync with the collar.

If I hadn't realized this dependence, perhaps... I would have felt a little better.

But there's nothing you can do if you realize it.

Lu Ye gently put his arm around the girl's waist and held her in his arms.

Faced with the girl's almost bleak sense of relief.

That's all he can do now.

The two embraced tightly.

It wasn't because of love.

It's not because of the sadness of having to separate someday.

However, while you can still be together, feel each other's softness, body temperature, and scent, and engrave them in your heart.

The important thing is the present.

That's it.

Chapter 74 Tomb Sweeping

A month later.

On a crisp early winter morning, Lu Ye was sweeping up the last of the fallen leaves in front of her door.

"Oh dear, you must be tired. Have some black tea."

An elderly woman from the clothing store served Lu Ye a cup of hot tea.

Lu Ye stopped what she was doing and took the porcelain cup.

"Thank you. How is she?"

Upon hearing this, a look of worry immediately appeared on the old woman's face.

"It's alright, but it's definitely not normal. Maybe we should see a doctor."

"Yes, I've already looked for it," Lu Ye said casually.

"But I don't think you need to worry too much. As long as she doesn't feel any pain or anything, it should be a good thing. After all, she's young, and it's normal for her body to develop, right?"

"Physical development is a good thing, but don't you think she's developed too much?"

The old woman fell silent.

Having lived most of her life, this was the first time she had ever seen something so strange.

Actually, she herself was a little unsure.

Sometimes, the evaluation of good or bad things cannot be based on the events themselves, but rather on the thoughts of the people involved.

Lu Ye wanted to ask the person involved, but the girl went to take a nap after breakfast.

A month has passed since that night.

But Luye and Violet remained in Leiden Port.

As for why I'm still here... the reasons are quite varied.

However, it can be simply summarized into the following three points.

First, the fighting in the northeast region has intensified. The nearby railway network, or transport routes, has been cut off, and most of the routes to Versailles are unusable, making horse-drawn carriages out of the question.

Secondly, Violet's body has experienced some issues. Simply put, her development is happening too rapidly. If a month ago her body belonged to a girl of about fifteen or sixteen, now her physical maturity has reached that of a girl of about twenty-five, making her a fully mature woman.

In reality, it's only a month, but physically it spans ten years.

Therefore, Lu Ye had to negotiate with the old woman, otherwise the young girl would not have enough underwear to change into.

Violet has also been experiencing excessive sleepiness this month.

She needs to sleep for about twelve hours a day to stay awake.

Fortunately, Violet herself didn't seem to care, and she didn't experience any pain or other symptoms, so Lu Ye could only observe her for the time being.

If it continues to develop at this rate, it will not be development, but aging.

However, things have improved in the last few days; at least I don't have to change my underwear every day anymore.

"Oh dear, it's already eight o'clock," the old woman suddenly said.

"Oh, I see. Time really flies," Lu Ye said. "It's a bit chilly outside. Why don't you put on a coat before you go out?"

"Alright," the old woman chuckled. "But is it alright to leave her alone in the house to sleep?"

"No problem, I'll just leave a note later."

A moment later, a sign temporarily hung on the door of the clothing store indicating that it was temporarily closed.

Lu Ye held up an umbrella and helped the old woman walk down the street.

It started snowing lightly in the sky sometime during the day; if you weren't paying attention, you might even mistake it for rain.

This month, apart from the area near the docks, there have been fewer and fewer pedestrians in the town.

When news of the situation at the front reached Leiden, prices rose, and everyone began stockpiling food for the winter... if there was still a chance to get through the winter.

The old woman was getting on in years and her health wasn't very good. The increasingly low temperatures also made her rheumatism in her legs flare up badly.

So, logically speaking, she wouldn't have gone out in such cold weather.

But today is the anniversary of her late husband's death.

Since she had no children, and Lu Ye had been frequently patronizing her business lately, she made this unreasonable request a few days ago.

Lu Ye readily agreed.

The old woman, her hands clad in warm fur gloves, carried several bunches of white chrysanthemums and walked slowly with Lu Ye's support.

Due to the weather and the war, coachmen on the road have almost disappeared.

So if you want to go to the cemetery, you should check if there are any rest stops nearby.

The streets were deserted, and Lu Ye carefully helped the old woman, afraid she might fall.

If we get to the nearest post station, it should only take about ten minutes for a normal person to walk.

But it took Lu Ye a full half hour.

The door to the post station was ajar. After climbing the steps, Lu Ye pushed open the wooden door.

The room was empty except for a few round tables in the middle, with playing cards and wine glasses scattered haphazardly on them.

"Hello, is anyone home?" Lu Ye called out into the house.

Upon hearing the call, there seemed to be some movement coming from the inner room.

"Who?"

A strange woman peeked out from behind the door, her hair slightly disheveled from sleeping.

"Hello, we would like to call a horse-drawn carriage."

"A carriage?" The woman frowned, somewhat puzzled. "Wait a moment."
