Section 321 Identity
In the car, Calledo continued to pretend to be asleep for a while before waking up.
From the moment he got into the car, he could feel that the others were more wary of him than surprised and curious, and in order to make them lower their vigilance against him, Calledo planned to continue to pretend to be very weak.
“Are you awake?”
"Are you awake?"
“Es-tu réveillé?”
“Bist du wach?”
“Выпроснулись?”
Ariel, who had been paying attention to Caledo, saw Caledo's eyelids move slightly, so she excitedly spit out a lot of greetings, because Caledo's appearance is really difficult to distinguish nationality, so Ariel also deliberately used five languages that she was proficient in.
This stunned Caledo, who opened his eyes and looked at Ariel, who was still thinking about what other language to use to greet him.
"Ahem... Cough... You... Who is it?"
Not knowing how many languages she speaks, Calledo decides to rush to the right to speak, lest she start racing the world's languages again.
"Oh? So you speak Chinese, hello! I'm Ariel, I saved you from dying!"
Ariel said as she handed a bottle of water to Caledo, and the others looked at the water in Caledor's hand with mixed expressions.
Calledo also knew that water was an important resource for them, and it would inevitably be unjust for an outsider to be able to get a bottle of clean drinking water so easily.
But in order to play realistically, Caledo, who is not thirsty at all, must also drink it, but he is clever enough to drink only half of it, so as not to make others more disgusted with him.
"I... I see, I fainted, did you save me?"
Calledo said in a feeble tone, casting a grateful glance at Ariel.
The latter immediately nodded and said, "That's right, what's your name, where did you come from?"
"Thank you for saving me, my name is Calledo Parker, I'm a ronin and I don't have a fixed place to live. ”
"Oh, how did you end up at that gas station?"
"Ahem... Ahem..."
In order to act realistically, Calledo did not forget to cough a few times from time to time between words.
Calledo felt that his acting skills had somehow improved a lot, and he had the girl just talk to him like a poor homeless wanderer, instead of tying him up and interrogating him first.
"I originally wanted to go to Luodu, but my resources ran out on the way, I thought I could hold on to Luodu, but I still couldn't hold on..."
"Well, well, it's not uncommon for wanderers like you to be in a city for various reasons, and you have to find the next place to make a living, so which city were you in before?"
Calledo didn't expect Ariel to ask about this, and at this time Calledo didn't dare to answer a city, the current world is very different from the earth he knows, and if he talks nonsense, it is likely to reveal flaws.
So Caledor only hesitated slightly, and then said with relief: "Actually, I came from the East, and I lived in a small community before, but after the community was destroyed, my compatriots were killed, and I was the only one who survived, but then I was kidnapped and put on a ship. ”
"I was washed ashore when the ship was attacked and sunk at sea, but luckily I was washed up on the beach with some supplies that would keep me on the journey. ”
"After that, I walked along the seaside road for a while before I learned that I was in California in North America through the sign, and then I followed the sign all the way to the nearest city, Lotodo. ”
After Calledo finished speaking, he coughed a few more times, took a few more sips of water to relieve his breath, and then looked at Ariel again.
Ariel was silent for a while after listening to his words, and then said with a caring smile: "What happened to you is really miserable, but this is the case in troubled times, fortunately you met us, you will be safe if you follow us, my father is what I can't!"
"Really... That's great. ”
"Can I call you Parker?"
Calledo nodded.
Ariel smiled heartily, patted Calledo on the shoulder and said, "Then you will be my friend from now on, please call me Ariel!"
What a self-acquainted girl, Calledo sighed in his heart about Ariel's character, but he was also very happy.
An optimistic and cheerful girl like Ariel will live an easier and happier life.
"Good, love... Ariel. ”
"Yes! Then since you were saved by me, then you owe me my life!"
"For the sake of saving my life, I, Calledo Parker, will go to the soup for Miss Ariel's life to repay my life!"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be quite humorous!"
"Haha... Ahem... Ahem, ahem..."
Caledor began to cough again, and he smiled awkwardly as he took a few awkward sips of water to moisten his throat under Ariel's smiling eyes.
Caledor instantly felt that he had been too deep into the play and could not extricate himself.
"Can you go, Parker?"
"I'll try..."
Calledo sat up as if he was struggling, and then was helped up by Ariel.
"Go to your seat. ”
As she spoke, Ariel helped Caledor to the front row of the carriage, where she was seated, and there was a lot of material between her and the others.
After helping Caledor sit down, Ariel and Calledo sat down and said in a voice that only Caledor could hear, "Is Calledo Parker your real name?"
"I? Why do you ask?"
Calledo didn't expect Ariel to ask such a question, he had thought he had missed a moment earlier, but he didn't see any doubts about him in Ariel's eyes, so she knew that Ariel had no ill will towards him.
But Caledor couldn't figure out why Ariel would suddenly ask him that, so he asked Ariel.
"Isn't my name weird?"
Ariel shook her head with a smile, turned her head to look out the window and said, "I don't think you have more than just a name, but I don't think the name Calledo Parker is a pseudonym either, because when you say it, it's very real, so this name must have some meaning to you." ”
"Meaningful names don't seem to me to be pseudonyms. ”
"That's my name. ”
Through Ariel's words, Caledor was relieved, as long as Ariel was not hostile to him, everything was still under control.
But Ariel's next words made Caledo's heart tense.
"Parker, you're not really a wanderer. ”
Calledo pretended to be calm and said, "Why do you say that?"
"There is no denial..."
“......”
Caledor was speechless for a while, and at the critical moment, he actually dropped the chain, and while regretting that he answered Ariel without thinking, Calledo also had a different opinion of Ariel.
Although Ariel is very cheerful and straightforward, she is not a person who is rough on the outside and rough on the inside, and her heart is still very fine.
"Half of the people in this car are wanderers who have chosen to travel with us for some distance on the road, and several of them have chosen to go to Luodu alone with the hope that they can do it, but they all almost lost their lives in this wild place. ”
"There is no way for humans to live in the wilderness outside of Lodo, and the place where I found you, no matter from where you enter this savage land and go to Lodo, it is impossible to get there with a human body. ”
"Parker, I don't know exactly who you are, but I'm sure you're not a wanderer. ”
