After creating Lapis, Fangzheng went into a state of rest for the time being. To the young ladies in the house, this newly born doll piqued their interest. Of course, considering Lapis's emotional education, Fangzheng handed her over to Mei Gan to take care of. He didn't dare to hand Lapis over to Zhen Hong or Jade Star. If not, he didn't know what would happen to his doll's personality.
Of course, the one who was the happiest about Lapis's birth was naturally Young Berry. All along, she couldn't find anyone else to play with. Jade Star only teased and bullied her, while Zhen Hong didn't want to play with her. Now that Lapis was here, Young Berry finally got to enjoy being a big sister. She ran around with Lapis all day and had a lot of fun.
As long as Young Berry didn't turn Lapis into a husky, Fangzheng would let her be.
Lapis's appearance was also considered a help to Mei Gan and Eve. After all, there were more and more people in the house. Although Zhen Hong, Jade Star, and Young Berry were dolls, they knew how to eat. That was why they had to buy a bunch of ingredients every time they went out. It was a little strenuous for the two young ladies, but now that they had Lapis, these problems naturally weren't a problem anymore. As a doll, she was rather strong. At the very least, she would have no problem uprooting a willow tree.
Besides, unlike Zhen Hong and the others, Lapis looked like an ordinary human girl, so she wouldn't attract attention whenever she went in or out. That was why Mei Gan and the others could also bring Lapis along to shop and they were very happy.
On the other hand, Lapis was quite obedient and was loved by everyone.
However, not everyone liked her.
For example, a certain black crow perched on a telephone pole.
"Hmph, that's the doll that was created by that human?"
Mercury Lamp curled up on an electric pole as she peeked her head out to look at Fangzheng's house not far away. After suffering twice in a row, Mercury Lamp had learned her lesson. This time, she didn't plan on taking action immediately. Instead, she carefully observed the puppet to see what capabilities it had before thinking of a way to dismantle it!
When that time came, it would be considered as her revenge!
From this, it could be seen that after suffering twice in a row, even the dumbest person would learn to be smart.
Mercury Lamp didn't know what was wrong with her. Normally, she would've long since shifted her target to Firmament Stone. But now, things were different. Twice in a row, she had been humiliated in this place. This made Mercury Lamp so angry that she swore to get revenge.
Not to mention the fact that it wasn't the Rose Maiden who defeated her twice, but the human's sister and friend!
What the hell is this!!!
Mercury Lamp's mood was like that of a gangster assassin who was about to make a move on her target when a passerby suddenly walked over and told her to "get out of the way". Then, the passerby beat her up and threw her to the side. She was flustered and exasperated. She flew into a rage out of humiliation and was determined to get back at the passerby.
Mercury Lamp's patience wasn't without results. After lying on the electric pole with Crow for a few days, she had figured out Lapis's daily activities. Basically, after breakfast, this little fella would either play with Squeaky and the others at home or go to the library with Eve to read books. As a puppet, Lapis also had a photographic memory, which was why she was dragged along by Eve to clean up the library.
The two of them had photographic memories and loved books as much as their lives. They were simply the natural enemies of the bookstore owner.
Basically, the two of them would read until noon, then come back for lunch, take a nap, go out to buy groceries in the afternoon, eat dinner, and rest …
What gave Mercury Lamp a headache was that most of the time, Lapis would be with Eve and Meigan. Otherwise, she would be with True Red or Emerald Stone. It wasn't easy to find a time when she was alone. But out of revenge towards Fangzheng, Mercury Lamp was still waiting for an opportunity. She didn't believe that she wouldn't be able to find one!
Perhaps the heavens were on their side, or perhaps it was because sincerity could move metal and stone. Anyway, on a sunny afternoon, when the sun was shining so brightly that Mercury was about to fall asleep, she suddenly saw the door to Fang Zheng's house open. Then, Lapis walked out, said something to the people inside, waved her hand, and skipped out of the house.
She was alone!
Seeing this, Mercury Lamp immediately perked up. She patted the crow standing on her head and stared at Lapis with widened eyes. The little doll didn't seem to notice a pair of malicious eyes staring at her. She carried her big box and hummed a song as she walked towards the shopping street.
This box was specially designed by Fangzheng. It could be folded on normal days. The box that Lapis was carrying now looked like a case for an electronic piano.
"Oh, Lapis, you're here."
"Do you want some Taiyaki?"
Everyone in the shopping street greeted Lapis. Meigan, Eve, and Lapis had basically become the mascots of the shopping street. This was also the reason why Fangzheng didn't go shopping and let them run errands. When the three little cuties went to buy groceries, not only would the boss give them the best, but he would also give them a discount.
On the other hand, if Fangzheng were to go, and the other party saw how handsome the man was, they might be angered and become bold. Then, they might secretly do something naughty or something …
Just like now, when Lapis arrived at the shopping street, her hands were already stuffed with the second uncle's taiyaki, the third aunt's deep-fried pancake, and the fifth uncle's apple candy before she even reached the shopping street.
Those who didn't know better would think that this little girl was here to buy snacks.
After walking around the shopping street, Lapis bought a roll of tape from the store and returned while eating snacks. The Squidberry Husky was tearing down the house again. If she didn't clean it up properly, Fangzheng would beat her up again.
When Lapis left the merchant street and was on her way back, suddenly, several black feathers fell from the sky. Then, a petite figure appeared in front of Lapis and blocked her way.
"Stop right there, little one!"
"Eh?"
Lapis was taken aback. She lifted her head hurriedly and saw the mercury lamp hovering in the air, staring at her with a sneer.
"You're the doll made by the human?"
"… Ah."
Lapis didn't respond immediately. On the contrary, she stared at the mercury lamp for a long while and clapped her hands.
"You must be Sister Mercury Lamp!"
"… Sister … Mercury Lamp?"
"Yes, I heard from Master. He said that I should be careful when I go out alone. He said that there's a doll whose wings shed feathers looking for a fight with me. He's talking about you, right?"
"… Shedding …"
Upon hearing this, Mercury Lamp's face twitched.
Shed feathers my ass!!
"Well then, I'd like to see what you're capable of!"
At this moment, Mercury Lamp couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense. He suddenly raised his hand and dozens of black feathers shot out from his wings and flew towards Lapis like flying knives.
Lapis's reaction wasn't slow either. As soon as the mercury lamp launched its attack, she hurriedly put down the things in her hands, leaped up, and dodged the mercury lamp's attack. But Mercury Lamp had no intention of letting her go. She hovered in the air and spread her black wings. Countless feathers shot out and chased after Lapis.
On the other hand, Lapis was as agile as a kitten. She jumped left and right under Mercury Lamp's attack, from the top of the wall to the roof, and then into the shade of the tree …
Phew, this guy doesn't seem to know how to fly.
Mercury Lamp was relieved to see this. She was afraid that this doll would grow wings and fly just like the girl named Eve. But now it seemed that this doll didn't have the ability to fly. Mercury Lamp heaved a sigh of relief ….
But at this moment, she suddenly heard Lapis's voice.
"Sister Mercury Lamp, it's my turn."
"Hmm?"
Mercury Lamp was taken aback. An ominous premonition emerged in her heart. She hurriedly lowered her head and looked at Lapis. Then, the little puppet leaped up from the tree branch. At the same time, the huge black box on her back began to split and transform.
In the blink of an eye, the black box turned into a mobile armor that attached itself to Lapis's body!
Boom!!!
At the next moment, Lapis turned into a dark shadow and dashed toward the mercury lamp! At the same time, two wings spread out from her back and several miniature missiles whizzed out from all directions towards the target in front of her.
Seeing this scene, Mercury Lamp was completely dumbfounded.
Is this even possible?!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Poor Mercury Lamp had never thought that one day she would be in such a difficult situation. She ran for her life in the sky while Lapis followed closely behind her and fired a few miniature missiles from time to time. Although the missiles weren't powerful, they still hit Mercury Lamp's face and made her face dirty. The fear of being burned alive by Kyoko Kirizaki reappeared in her heart.
Mercury Lamp screamed inwardly as he frantically ran for his life.
How can this be a doll?!
How can there be such a doll?!!!
Mercury Lamp, of course, couldn't understand. Although Fangzheng had brought his thoughts back to reality when he was a puppet, in terms of equipment, Fangzheng had used the most advanced technology to supplement himself … After all, there was no law that forbade puppets from using jet engines and infrared missiles.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
At this moment, Mercury Lamp was as desperate as an Avatar who was chased all over the streets by the Earth colonial army.
Why is this happening?!
What the hell is that man doing?!
Why can't I win?!
In desperation, Mercury Lamp reached her limit. Soon, as the shockwave behind her exploded, she couldn't hold on any longer. Her vision darkened and she fell from the sky.
