Chapter 351: You're Late
A small island in the south, surrounded by clean white sand, crystal clear waters, and lush forests. There are no factories and no travelers here www.biquge.info and the most pristine and beautiful scenery is still retained.
There is a small town on the island, which is built along the mountain range, with tall and low houses, white walls and red tiles, which from a distance gives people a layered feeling, like a tourist town.
In fact, the local mayor has thought of drastic reforms to make the place develop in the direction of a tourist town. However, the residents of the town really don't have much self-motivation and fighting spirit. There are only three barbecue restaurants, only two bakeries, and few restaurants in the town, and most of the people are inherited from their fathers. A fisherman is a fisherman all his life, and a bakery runs a bakery all his life. Not to mention those, even the occasional tourist who has not yet been attracted by the beautiful scenery around them is driven away by the smell of fishy fish and fermented rotten fruits on the pier.
The people in the town are self-sufficient and don't have much intention of communicating with the outside world, and it was a long time before a boat docked by the dock to bring spices, cigarettes or various daily necessities.
The pier is full of fishing boats undulating with the sea breeze, and the time is just in the evening, and the orange sun shines on the pier, and the fishermen are returning with a full load. A large fish was thrown on the pier, and a man held a knife to disembowel, and with the sharp blade cut through the flesh, the internal organs fell with a clatter.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, little girl. ”
A middle-aged fisherman, barefoot with a knife in one hand, waved to the girl standing next to her.
However, the girl dressed in black only took two steps back, and seemed a little indifferent to the bored tone of the middle-aged fisherman, she carried two bags of things to avoid the blood all over the ground, and said, "Ha, you don't recognize me." ”
The town is not big, and the people in the town almost know each other, and then although the girl in black looks beautiful, her appearance does not have much familiarity, but her tone is somewhat familiar. Killing fish is not in a hurry, the middle-aged man frowned, and the smile on the girl in black made people more familiar, and she said, "You are ......"
The girl in black laughed and said, "Someone was floating on the sea with a plank, but I rescued him." ”
The middle-aged fisherman remembered that he had met a deep-sea ship at sea, jumped off his fishing boat before the enemy's artillery fire hit, and only swam away from the fishing boat, and the fishing boat was blown to pieces by artillery fire. The deep-sea ship girl didn't have much interest in the fishermen who dived into the sea, he finally got away with it, holding the fishing boat and breaking the only remaining plank, trying to swim to the shore, and then met a ship girl dressed as a nun......
Not to mention the grace of saving lives, but forgetting the name in just one year, it is too bad to be a person, the middle-aged fisherman showed a happy expression on his face, and said, "York." ”
The other party is a nun from the hilltop church, in fact, the residents of the town know that almost all the people in the hilltop church are ship girls. The people who used to go there were also admirals and ship girls, and both the admirals and ship girls were big shots. Although all of those girls are quite kind, and will even help suppress them when necessary, those deep-sea ship girls who appear near the island are like the protectors of the town.
The nuns of the church were not very fond of being in town, except for one girl who liked to wander around the town, and didn't even mind sitting on the side of the road and chatting with people. Or standing on the dock to watch people kill fish, like to discuss fish and currents with people, fishing boats are not afraid, as a ship girl is afraid of speedboats, that is a ship girl called York.
However, a year ago, the other party suddenly left. Later, when I inquired about the news, I said that I thought it was too boring here. For those who have been out and about, it is understandable, but for the locals, they are still in the stage of worrying about making ends meet every day, and it is enough to take a break and bask in the sun once in a while.
The middle-aged fisherman looked at each other and nodded, and he asked, "Aren't you leaving?"
"I used to be gone, but now I'm back. ”
"Walking around, it's better to be here. ”
York laughed noncommittally, just went out for a walk, and now thinks it's too bad here. Slander in my heart, what's so good here, if it weren't for my sister here, I wouldn't have come back at all.
Of course, the thoughts in his heart will not be spoken, and York said: "I came back this time to find my sister. ”
"Your sister, what's her name?"
"Exeter. ”
"That's the name. ”
The middle-aged fisherman remembered Exeter, with long pink hair and a gentle and tolerant personality, who used to always follow York. Later York was gone, and it was rare to see the descent down.
"I didn't see her all the time. ”
"She's very stuffy. ”
With that, York held up the bag in his hand and said, "You want to taste what I brought back from outside." ”
The middle-aged fisherman spread his hands, his hands covered in blood.
"Well, there's no way around it. ”
York and the middle-aged fisherman beckoned away, carrying the gifts she had brought back from outside. I lived here for a long time, and I couldn't stand the hard life before leaving. After a long time away, everything was as usual when I came back. What it was was was now, it is now. The big tree that needs to be hugged by several people is still there to burn incense, and the family next to the watch shop is always drying their nets at the door, and the front door is full of salted fish.
She looked towards a house on the side of the road, and the big yellow dog locked in the door just barked, as if he sensed that something was wrong, and immediately shrank into the corner. York thought to himself, that one dog, still seems to recognize himself. In the past, it was still very fierce, always yelling at itself, and then kicked it twice, and then I never screamed again after seeing myself, and now I still recognize it when I see it.
When I looked up and saw the girl wearing a headscarf and an apron on the balcony of the roadside hut, I thought to myself, I haven't seen her for a year, and I am already married.
Walking around the town, she has a cheerful personality and stretches out her hand to greet people passing by along the way. Then I walked out of the pier and saw a long staircase, climbing up the stairs, surrounded by a familiar environment.
It didn't take long to walk to the church at the top of the hill, through the circular square paved with stone bricks, past the fountain pool, flicking a coin into it, and then driving away a large flock of white doves, and you can already see the white church.
Walking through the garden outside the church, she was already hesitant. I've been out for a long time, and I'm really afraid of my sister's blaming eyes when I come back, after all, it's so irresponsible, and I haven't heard anything for so long.
York reached out and straightened his long hair and tucked the earrings away to make himself look like a nun. Then he took a deep breath, put his palm on the door of the church, and made up his mind to push it open.
……
Inside the church, there are colorful stained windows. Painted in sky blue and decorated with a golden lily pattern. The small round window with empty rose petals is delicate and elegant. Black and white marble floors on the ground, tall columns, round vaults, which are inside a hall. The whole hall has a sense of solemnity and redemption, yet in this most suitable place for prayer, there is a scene of violent beatings.
A young girl held a book and smashed it on the head of another girl, and the movements in her hands were not light, obviously trying to beat people to death. People who don't know will probably think of bullying, but those who know know it's just a deep responsibility of love.
Anyway, no matter what, a book can't kill the ship's mother, and it can't even be injured.
The girl who beat the person had a distressed expression, and smashed the head of the other girl with a dictionary-thick and cowhide book in both hands, and smashed it and said: "I want you to be human-faced and beast-hearted, I want you to report it to the gendarmerie, I want you to deprive him of his status as a commander......"
"People haven't done anything yet, who doesn't have a little dirty idea, as long as they don't do it, it doesn't matter, even if they do, then naturally the gendarmerie will deal with it. Everyone has their own division of labor, and our role is mainly to listen. We are not the eyes and ears of the gendarmerie, even if something dirty happens, we can persuade him to turn himself in, but we can't take the initiative to report it......"
"I'm just asking you casually, you idiot. I remember when you first came, I told you that in our line of work, the most taboo thing is to reveal what you know. That's irresponsible to yourself, that's irresponsible to others, and people are trustworthy to come to us......"
After being beaten for a long time, I finally had a chance to talk back, and the girl who was beaten said: "I won't tell others, but you are my senior, what's the big deal with you...... And you asked me yourself. ”
"Don't say I'm your senior, even if I'm your parents, you can't tell me. When I asked you, you said, I want you to die, do you want to die? Why did you accept such a fool as you, and this kind of thing spreads, and our church will still be so mixed up in the future. ”
"Leah-senpai definitely won't spread the word. She hugged her head and squatted on her face, with a pitiful expression on her little face and big eyes full of tears.
"Don't be coquettish to me, this is the rule, no matter whether others will spread it or not, the rules just can't be passed on. The girl who was called Leah's predecessor seemed a little bitter, "It's really idiot enough, you should be a mercenary if you're so powerful, otherwise it's good to join any town guard, and it's funny to come here to harm people?" You go and ask, those little girls' mouths are very tight......"
Leah said, and suddenly there was a squeak.
In the afternoon, the churches were closed to teach their fools a lesson. Who the hell is pushing the door, and the door doesn't knock, and it's not polite at all.
Leah turned her head and saw a person standing in the doorway with his back to the sun, the whole person looked a little dark, and then she heard a familiar voice.
"Where did Leah's predecessor find a newcomer, they are still newcomers, and they scolded so hard that tears were about to flow. ”
Seeing the comer, Leah finally decided to let go of the girl beside her. She squinted at the person at the door, and although she hadn't seen her for a long time, she could still remember it for the first time, and she said, "York, you're back?"
"Hmm. ”
"You look happy that you haven't been back for so long?"
"I'm happy because I've done something meaningful. ”
"Back to your sister Exeter?"
"Hmm. ”
"You can go, your sister has been fished out. ”
