From February 1025 to August, in the past six months, major events have occurred in Shenge Seaport. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The first major event is that following the last decade, most of the aquarists living in the deep grid harbor have chosen to return to their hometowns and return to the ocean. After a week in my hometown, I held a feast in the water, and after a week, I saw the water tribe in the harbor one after another.

The second thing is that Shenge Harbor is close to the seaside, and not long after the Shui Tribes left the harbor and returned home, a group of dangerous magical beasts from the sea appeared on the seaside. It is a high-level magical beast called the Kraken, the Kraken is similar in body shape to the Water Tribe, and often uses the appearance of the Water Tribe to confuse the human race, the Kraken can control people through sound, and the guy with weak willpower will be controlled by the Kraken when he approaches the Kraken and becomes the food of the Kraken.

Ordinary people who don't have any ability to resist the Kraken have only one kind of end.

In the past, the relationship between the Aqua and the Terrans was hostile, and one of the reasons for this was the Siren, which resembled the Aqua Tribe.

In recent decades, the Empire has sent several nobles to become masters of the deep seaport. In the first decade after the intention of re-establishing friendly relations with the Aquarists, one of the owners of the deep seaport, Kui Ajjet, made a lot of contributions to this end. Kuy Ajjet investigated the Kraken in detail and sent people to the beach to annihilate the dangerous Kraken, and the matter was solved perfectly, so that the people of Shenge Harbor began to become familiar with the affairs of the Water Tribe and the sea, and understood that the Kraken was not a member of the Water Clan, but a kind of water monster.

This realization allowed the water tribe and the terrestrial race to start a new friendship.

In the second decade, that is, in March 1025, some people in the Shenge Harbor issued a mission against the Kraken, and after consultation and discussion, during the week of the Aquarium Feast, they protected the Shenge Harbor, and those people made a lot of efforts.

After the return of the water tribe in the deep grid harbor, it also heralded the end of the Kraken crisis, and during this time, the adventurers hired from outside successfully prevented the Kraken from using their voices to lure ordinary people with weak willpower, preventing these people from becoming food for the Kraken.

These two events are the two biggest things that have happened in the past six months.

In order not to cause panic, half of the people in the harbor are still in ignorance, they are well concealed, they don't know anything, whether it's a kraken or a feast, they are just irrelevant people. In the harbor, others act as protectors and planners, planning actions, protecting irrelevant people with actions, and reducing the food that ordinary people become krakens. There are also some people who vaguely know what happened in the harbor, and they choose not to say anything, and continue to pretend that they really don't know anything, because this choice is the most rational for them, and sometimes even if they know, they don't have the power to change anything.

All in all, the Kraken matter was resolved smoothly, and the third or even the fourth decade was the next thing. As for the scene of the feast in the sea, only the aquarists who have been to the scene know what the feast is and what it is celebrated for, and most people do not know anything about it.

Neil was also in a state of ignorance, and his life was relatively quiet for half a year.

In Neil's life, the only big change is Xia Li, Xia Li drank the medicine that Baker prepared for herself every day, and after drinking it for three months, Xia Li felt that her body was no longer soft and could not even do the standard standing posture. In the past, Xia Li could walk 50 meters without any support, which was like a dream.

Xia Li told Baker that her body seemed to be much better, considering Xia Li's body, Baker didn't dare to let Xia Li stop taking medicine, but Baker allowed Xia Li to go out and take a walk not far from the neighborhood under the personal leadership of Neil.

Neil took Charlie for a walk outside, and gradually, as time went on, Neil's friends knew that Neil had a sick person living in his house. During that time, when Neil was meeting up with his friends, Charlie's affair became the talk of those guys. To be honest, Neil was very unhappy about this, and at the beginning, he often fell out with those guys, but fortunately, Travis often came out to persuade him.

Later, because of the year-end celebrations, the fellows lost their interest in Charlie's events, and focused on foreign travelers and bards. In fact, Neil slowly got used to listening to those guys ask about Xia Li, and of course, if Neil bullied Xia Li in front of Neil, not only Neil, but even Baker would not forgive.

That's it, half a year has passed, and there are still four months left before the end of the year.

On August 12th, the sun was shining on a hot day.

After noon, Neil took Charlie out into the street, intending to sit down and rest in a shadowy meadow in the square, where she enjoyed a brief coolness, and the afternoon breeze brought a hint of soothing the sweltering coolness to the heart.

"It's really comfortable to sit here. ”

"When the weather is a little cooler, let's prepare some food, and then call Uncle, and the three of us will come here for a picnic, in autumn, this area is a good picnic spot. ”

"I wish I could come with my father. ”

"By the way, you haven't seen your father for half a year!" For so many months, except for taking Xia Li out for a walk, Xia Li spent the rest of her time in the room. For such a long time, Neil had never seen anyone come to visit Xia Li, and sometimes looking at Xia Li, he couldn't help but feel lonely for her.

"Every once in a while, Mr. Baker would bring me a letter from my father, who went to the territory of the Aquarium, and in the letter I saw and mentioned that I had met the Aquarium on the Aquarium territory, and some unique scenery in the Aquarium. Xia Li fiddled with her fingers so that her hands were crossed together, and the girl smiled as if she were looking at some distant place.

"I really want to go there with my father. ”

After knowing each other for so long, it was the first time Neil had heard Xia Li talk about her family.

Neil looked sideways at Charlie's face, and the shadow of the tree caressed her face, and Neil couldn't help but ask, "Why did your father go there?" ”

"My father was very busy, and he had to entrust me to others. ”

"Even if he's not with you, even if you feel lonely, even if you can't even see him once in half a year?"

"My father has what he has to do, and I can't be willful, otherwise, I will be a burden to my father. Xia Li lowered her head and looked at her hands, "My body...... My health has always been poor, and my father has his own job, so he can't let him take care of me all the time, so he won't have time to do his own thing. ”

"......" Neil opened his mouth, but for a long time, he couldn't say a word.

Xia Li, Xia Li's father, herself, and her uncle, although she once envied the parents that others can have, the uncle is not her real relative. From the day he knew his life, there was an invisible barrier between himself and Baker, and he had been trying to bridge it, while he pretended that nothing had happened, and he pretended not to see anything.

Actually, this distance still exists, it has always existed.

Even if you pretend not to know, it is still in the depths of your heart, reminding you all the time.

Neil really doesn't know that those children who have real parents, guys like himself who are just adopted sons, and people like Xia Li who always think about their father and think about their father even if they are not around.

Neil had no idea what the difference was.

Perhaps, he is angry that Baker is not his real father, maybe, he is just jealous of the children who do have parents, maybe, he just doesn't know how to deal with this broken relationship.

"Almost, Charlie, let's go back. ”

"Okay. Charlie stood up and stared at Neil's back seriously, as if she sensed something, but as if she didn't know anything.

Neil and Charlie return home, and Neil shouts loudly as he usually enters.

"Uncle, I'm back!"

Xia Li also shouted, "Mr. Baker, we're back." ”

Then, Charlie told Neil that she had to go back to her room to rest.

Neil watched Xia Li walk up the stairs step by step, and every time she went upstairs, Xia Li walked very slowly. At first, seeing that she was working so hard, Neil planned to help her, but as a result, Xia Li shook her head very resolutely, she didn't need help.

Neil stood downstairs and looked up as Xia Li slowly walked upstairs.

After Charlie enters the room, Neil begins to look for Baker on the first floor.

"It's strange, isn't it usually in the hall to entertain guests at this time?" There was only a little place in the hall as a drugstore, and at a glance, there was no place to hide, and Neil wondered why Baker was not there at this time.

Neil ran into the kitchen and looked inside.

"Uncle, are you in the kitchen? ”

"Do you want to collect clothes on the balcony upstairs?"

"Uncle!"

Neil hurried upstairs, and when he passed by Xia Li's room, he couldn't help but stop and look inside, Xia Li was already lying on the bed resting. Neil continued on, to the back of the hallway, where the balcony was.

Every morning, Baker and Neil would hang their laundry there to dry, and in the afternoon, they would go there to collect the clothes.

"What, no wonder I felt quiet as soon as I came in, I wasn't there at all. ”

Neil left the balcony and went back to his room, and after returning from a walk with Xia Li, for some reason, Neil didn't want to go out anymore, so he stayed at home.

When Neil returned to his room, he suddenly noticed an extra item on the table.

"Letter?" Neil walked over and picked up a white envelope on the table that was pressed by a candlestick.

-- To my son Neil.

By the time you read this letter, I was probably already out of the harbor. It happened suddenly, and before I could tell you in detail, I had to leave this letter to tell you of my departure.

You're going to scold me here.

"Uncle, I really want to scold you, and suddenly disappeared!"

In my heart, you are smarter than other children, and I believe that you will take care of yourself, just like when you were seven years old, I left you for the first time and left for a whole week. To be honest, I was really worried, worried that you wouldn't be able to take care of yourself, but luckily, you didn't let me down.

"I still have the heart to mention this...... Neil pouted, something like this, Baker suddenly dropped a letter and went out for a few days to half a month, it is not the first time it has happened, and over time, Neil is not surprised.

In short, I will tell you in the letter the amount of medicine Xia Li takes every day, and during my absence, you should arrange the amount of medicine for half a month in advance. The day after you read this letter, I will arrange for someone to come over, and at that time you will find all the medicine you have used for the past half a month and bring it with you.

Finally, I put ten gold coins in the drawer on the table in your room, and use them sparingly.

Remember, the day after you read the letter, you believed and took the person I arranged to come seriously.

The signature at the end of the letter is Baker's name.

"What, inexplicable!"
