Chapter 62: Missing Again
"My mom didn't come home tonight, she usually comes home on weekends, so I'm taking you to hot pot tonight, because tomorrow I'm going to Galateaa for class, and I'm going to have a good meal. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Clio said to Tiffany with a smile.
Cleo and Tiffany return to the civilian area to find Shellyl not doing laundry outside, only to see Colin and Dennis playing with the ball.
Cleo thinks that Tiffany is not going out well in a hospital gown now, and wants to borrow some clothes from Shirley, because she has to take Tiffany to Galatea tomorrow, so she can't wear his clothes to class.
"Colin, is your sister at home?" said Cleo to Colin as he played.
Colin put down the ball, ran over and said, "Brother Clio, my sister will go out in the afternoon, it seems that she is going to help the flower shop in the town, and she shouldn't be going home tonight." ”
Clio remembered that Maureen had moved a year ago, and it seemed that some of the clothes had not been removed, and they were in the box in her room. I put some anti-moth spices in the box, and I shouldn't be bitten by moths.
"Tiffany, I have a friend's clothes at home, and you should be able to wear her clothes, but you may not like them. Clio said.
"It's okay, now I'm lucky to be able to pick up a life. Tiffany said lightly.
Clio and Tiffany returned to their home, and then moved out a large wooden box under a small wooden bed in the room, which was worn out and covered with a thick layer of dust, and the smell of dust made Tiffany want to cough.
Clio gently patted the dust off it, and then opened the box, which contained some girls' clothes, but they were intact and not bitten off by moths, because Aina had put some mothballs in them.
"You can pick out some clothes in there, Maureen is about the same size as you, and I'm all dirty right now, so I'll go take a shower first, and I'll call you later." Cleo said softly.
"Okay. Tiffany said with a blush.
After Clio left, Tiffany looked at the clothes in the box, before she used to prepare lace dresses for herself every day, almost seven sets of clothes a week, but now she had to wear these civilian clothes in the backlog of boxes, and she was still a little unaccustomed to it, and then leaned over to see which one was suitable for her.
Clio quickly took a bath, because after soaking in the river water for a while, there was some mud mixed with fishy smell on his body, and he felt some small red spots on his skin, which was very itchy and painful, and he didn't know if Tiffany would feel this way after just receiving an antiviral infusion.
Clio changed into a white shirt, jeans, black canvas shoes, and beads of water in her hair that had just taken a shower. Although the dress is simple, it is quite refreshing and delicate, and for Clio, the clothes are as long as they are comfortable, and they don't need to be so gorgeous and exquisite.
"Tiffany, the bathroom is next door to the living room, there's hot water in it, by the way, you girls like those rose shampoos, but we only have one bar of soap in our house, so you'll have to settle for some and go to Alice's magic shop tomorrow to buy them for you." ”
Tiffany hugged some of the clothes, and then nodded with a flushed face, she didn't expect Clio to be so gentle and attentive, and even thought about it for her.
The bathroom in Clio's house is very small, about less than 3 square meters wide, plain and unadorned walls, a half-open shutter, a round mirror embedded in the wall, a white sink with a white soap on it, a bottle of green shampoo, no bath, only a simple electric water heater, Tiffany has been used to using the bath since she was a child, and the first time she faced this situation, she was a little at a loss and could only use it.
The soap in the bathroom was very slippery, Tiffany accidentally slipped on the floor, and finally could only use a bottle of light green shampoo to wash her hair and shower, at a glance I knew that it was a bottle of mint extracted shampoo, and it was so cold that Tiffany's pores were as cold as entering winter, and finally after taking a shower, Tiffany gritted her teeth and changed into Maureen's clothes.
Cleo calls Abgaard from outside, and Abegal says that she can promise to help, but Tiffany must participate in magic training, or Gabriela will not agree to let a student who fails magic stay in Galatea.
Tiffany walked out, dressed in Maureen's clothes, a cherry pink knitted jacket, a white slippery dress, and a pair of Clio slippers. Although it is very simple, wearing Tiffany's body, and her long hair that has been restored to blonde, the whole person is as elegant and lovely as pink cherry blossoms.
Clio's eyes lit up, and he put down the phone in his hand, feeling stunned. The Tiffany in front of her is elegant and beautiful, like an angel who has fallen into the mortal world, her long eyelashes are as slender as butterfly wings, and her bright eyes have been restored to be as clear as emeralds, and the scars on her face have disappeared. Although the clothes are simple, they have a fresh and beautiful feeling.
"What's the matter, Chrio, doesn't my dress look good?" asked Tiffany shyly, as Clio had been staring at her, even though she had had the experience of being always looked at for her beauty.
"No, I never knew that there were even more beautiful girls in this world than Senior Sister Kotrow. Clio said with some embarrassment.
Tiffany looked in the mirror, and she didn't expect that her appearance had recovered, but her appearance had recovered, and the toxins left in her body by the poison potion must still be there, so there was nothing to be happy about.
"Let's go, let's go eat hot pot, I've already agreed with Miss Abiga, you can go to Galatea tomorrow for class. ”
Clio said with a bright smile.
Tiffany nodded.
As soon as Tiffany walked out of the civilian area, the boys who were playing outside were surprised to see her beauty, because in addition to Shirley being a beauty, it was the first time to see such a beautiful girl in the civilian area, especially with long hair like blonde and clear eyes like emeralds, like angels in the mortal world, delicate and amazing.
Cleo had no choice but to say to Tiffany, "No way, they just like beautiful girls, so don't worry about their eyes, let's go." ”
Tiffany was uncomfortable at the sight of these civilians, so she could only bow her head, and Clio led her slender hand to the street outside. Because it is already night, the street lights here are lit up, bringing a lot of light to the place, and there are many pedestrians on the streets, because they are not like the town where there are many high-end hotels, or colorful entertainment venues, amusement parks, cinemas, art galleries, bars. There is only a row of food streets that are very lively at night, although the environment is simple, and there are a large number of tables and chairs in the open air, and people come and go, some people swallow clouds and fog here, or a group of people play cards and gamble and eat melon seeds, it has become a good place to spend in the civilian area, here are all kinds of small fried and seafood and beer restaurants, as well as thriving hot pot restaurants, as long as you spend some money here, you can enjoy the good time of the night. Especially for young people who are tired from a long day's work, they want to have some cold dishes or unhygienic but delicious barbecue, and a refreshing bottle of beer is the best enjoyment after a tiring day.
The food street at night is always unusually noisy, and it is a good place for pastime in the civilian area, and the environment is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the people in the civilian area.
For the first time, Tiffany saw these young people in the civilian area either playing cards and gambling, or swallowing melon seeds, and talking rudely and loudly. Because this side is not far from the dandelion underground street, usually there will be a lot of bad teenagers gathered here, occasionally because of some arguments and fight with each other, it is also a very common thing, as long as it does not affect the business of the restaurant owner, many people are turning a blind eye. Anyway, the security in the civilian area is very poor, that is, occasionally some people from the Iffira Public Security Administration come here for routine business, as long as the owner of the hotel pays some money, he can continue to open a store here.
Tiffany was accustomed to the noble and elegant atmosphere of the royal family, everyone ate and drank extremely gentle and elegant, no one would talk loudly, the first time she saw this lively atmosphere, she was a little scared, especially those bad teenagers who stared at her graceful figure and beautiful face, which made her feel very nervous.
Clio took Tiffany's hand, and then came to a hot pot restaurant that was already full of customers, all of them were gathered together, and then on the table was an iron pot on top of the stove, in which was some beef soup that had been boiling for a long time, next to all kinds of fresh ingredients, green vegetables, red beef, and seafood, fish balls, mushrooms, dried tofu, some bright red and spicy sauces, and then ate it to a great extent.
"Is this really delicious?" asked Tiffany.
"I grew up loving it, but every time I got on the fire, my mom would cook me mint potion and blame me for eating it. Clio said with a smile.
Clio told the boss about the hot pot and immediately took the two of them to a place next to a floor-to-ceiling window.
"This hot pot is divided into two halves, half is clear soup hot pot, which is more suitable for your body now recovering from a serious illness, not too spicy, my side is red soup hot pot, my favorite spicy taste, wait a minute, you can't help but eat, worry about irritating your wounds." Clio quipped.
The boss immediately served pots of fresh ingredients for the two of them, verdant vegetables, sliced potatoes, winter melon, plain white mushrooms, fresh beef, pork, chicken, golden tofu skin, red animal blood clots, snow-white fish fillets, some cleaned seafood, and the owner's own handmade fish balls, which are snow-white and round, and have excellent elasticity. Next to it is a dish of bright red sauce. There are also two bottles of drinks, one is orange juice in a glass bottle and one is a bubbling lemonade.
Clio skillfully adjusted the temperature of the stove, the blue flames kept beating, and the broth in the iron pot was already boiling, emitting a hint of tempting aroma, and then slowly put the ingredients down, watching the fresh ingredients being scalded by the hot pork rib soup all at once, Tiffany felt so amazing, because it was usually ** The cake, the steak that is slowly cut with a knife and fork, and the elegant red wine, now when she sees this hot pot, she feels very novel, and the aroma of the hot pot keeps reaching her nose, which is simply very tempting.
Clio gave Tiffany the cooked beef and fish balls and said softly, "Tiffany, you eat it, how does it taste?" ”
The beef is delicious and delicious, especially the fish balls, which are extremely elastic, and when you bite into them, the golden caviar filling flows out of the snow-white fish balls, which is simply delicious.
"I really don't believe it, it turns out that there is such a delicious thing outside. Tiffany said with a smile.
Clio then slowly lowered the rest of the ingredients and blanched them, then gave them to Tiffany. The two of them had a full meal, and for the first time, Tiffany felt that the taste of hot pot simply opened her internal organs, and the refreshing deliciousness made her unforgettable.
After eating the hot pot, Tiffany felt as if the smell of the hot pot on her body had been left in her hair, and even the knitted jacket had the spicy smell of hot pot.
"Tiffany, wait a minute, I'll go buy you some dessert and wait for me here. Clio suddenly remembered that there was also Maureen's favorite dessert before.
Clio ran to the dessert shop next door, the refrigerator of the dessert shop was filled with all kinds of desserts, in addition to cheap milk ice cream, fruit ice cream, fragrant milk tea, fragrant sesame paste, milky peanut milk, sweet and delicious red bean paste, and colorful fruit smoothies, bright red strawberry smoothies, refreshing watermelon smoothies, yellow mango smoothies, pineapple smoothies, and fresh green mint smoothies. Although it has entered autumn, the crowded dwellings in the civilian area are still as hot and humid at night as the end of summer, so after eating spicy hot pot and barbecue, a cup of dessert is the most refreshing to relieve the heat and relieve the hot mood like summer.
The owner of the dessert shop is a young woman with orange scorpion braids and turquoise eyes. He is about 24 years old, with a graceful figure and a delicate appearance, wearing a sky blue camisole and a tight denim skirt, and is busy with business.
Her name is Bonnie, and she has been in the dessert business here for 8 years, because the desserts are cheaper and tastier than other people's shops, coupled with her warm attitude and beautiful appearance, the dessert shop is always doing well.
Clio asked for two cups of red bean paste and a cup of hot milk tea with pudding and coconut.
"Recently, I heard that there are demons coming and going in the civilian area at night, little handsome man, I advise you to be careful. Bonnie said in a lazy tone as she filled Clio with red bean paste and milk tea.
"Devil, what kind of devil, Miss Bonnie, you shouldn't be alarmist. Clio took the dessert and said earnestly.
Bonnie raised a pair of turquoise eyes, glanced at Clio, and said, "This is not alarmist, so you should be careful, because I have heard that demons like to suck the blood of very young girls, especially beautiful ones." ”
Clio smiled, "Thank you, but I don't believe in any demonic rumors. ”
"Tiffany, I bought red bean paste and milk tea, which one do you like?" Clio said with the dessert, only to find that Tiffany, who had just stood outside the hot pot restaurant, had disappeared.
Why did Tiffany disappear without a trace in less than ten minutes after leaving, could it be that the delinquent teenager from the nearby dandelion underground street took Tiffany away, Clio was anxious for a while.
Where Tiffany left, there was also a pink slipper, which was the shoe that Aina had bought for Maureen before, but she didn't take it with her at home. So, Tiffany was really captured by the bad boy in the dandelion underground street.
