"Miss Aisha, these are the things you wanted, we got them from the warehouse~"
Edward Eric swears that today is his most exciting and exciting day in the last two years.
Because today for the first time, he felt that his dream and that of his brother were one step closer to them, and not because of anything else, just because someone came to their family today.
"Ah, have you found them all? Let's bring it all. I'll let you taste the authentic northern assorted stew~"
A tall big sister with aqua blue hair, a girl who looks very energetic and straightforward, and a foodie girl who was almost dizzy from hunger just ten minutes ago.
"Oh~ Northern cuisine? ~I've never eaten it before. ”
Now the girl has just stuffed a few dried tomatoes into her mouth, nibbled on two radishes and a few roasted half-cooked potatoes, and is now cooking lunch around an apron, which is the main dish of today's noon, stewed in the north.
"But it smells really good~ It's a fight with the stew made by Grandma Pinaco."
While he and his brother Al help clean up the ingredients, Edward and Estes chat.
"Pinaco? Is it your grandmother? ”
The vegetables and meat in the pot were almost cooked, and smelling the aroma of the soup in the pot, Estes knew it was almost time to add the final seasoning.
"No, it's our good friend Wen Li's grandmother."
"Wen Li? Is it Winley Rockbell? Sarah Rockbell and Yuri Rockbell's daughter? ”
Put the seasoning in place, stir well, and taste it
"Well, yes, does my sister know Wen Li's parents?"
"Well, it's not just acquaintance, strictly speaking, Wen Li's parents are my teachers and have taught me a lot of things, both in medicine and outside of medicine."
Seeing that the food tasted almost over, Estes brought the pot over. It's almost time to eat.
"Is my sister a student of the Rockbells?"
Hearing the girl say that she seemed to have an unusual relationship with Wen Li's parents, Edward was even more excited.
If this relationship can be recognized by the girl, who claims to have studied both alchemy and medicine, then Edward's goal is not ......
"Students? I don't know if I am a student or not, but the two doctors are really my teachers, which I admire and I like. ”
Tilting his head and thinking about it for a moment, Estes gave such an answer, and such an answer was enough for Edward
"Okay~ Don't talk about that, let's eat first~ People can't fight on an empty stomach~"
Serving a good meal to the two teenagers, Estes also hurriedly served himself a bowl. A large bowl.
"Huh? Fight? ”
Edward doesn't understand, isn't Aisha a doctor? What does it have to do with fighting?
"The hospital is a battlefield for doctors, the patient will live if he wins, and the patient will die if he fails, and it is our duty to save the patient's life and save the life, of course, it is a battle."
Of course, Estes couldn't say that he was a little hungry and had low blood sugar, and his head was dizzy, and he was too excited to talk about eating quickly.
"That's amazing! Miss Aisha's professionalism is amazing! It's super powerful! ”
Seeing that hope is just around the corner, what can you not say about some words of praise without using water or electricity?
"Haha~ No, no, no~ It's still far away~ Ahhhh
It's not until the fragrant and hot stew enters the mouth and stimulates the taste buds and salivary glands that one knows how hungry you are.
This sentence is now experienced by Estes again.
Eating is really one of the happiest parts of human life, and it makes people feel better than killing and fighting~
With a happy face extinguishing the stew in the bowl, Estes smiled brightly
"Miss Aisha is too modest~ then it must be ......"
Saying this, Edward's eyes showed an unexpected light
"My sister's alchemy and medicine are very high, right? ~”
Edward was expecting a confident and affirmative answer
"Of course~ not boasting, my alchemy and medical skills are not ordinarily high now~ I am the first person in our country to combine alchemy and medical treatment to treat patients~"
It's delicious~ This stew is so delicious~ Sure enough, everything is delicious when you're hungry~
While eating and sweating profusely, he answered the question of the antenna head without a match
"A combination of medicine and alchemy? Treating diseases? Alchemy of the human body? ”
Hearing the girl casually say such confident words, her expression was so unusual, Edward felt that the girl was not bragging, she should really have such strength, just now outside, didn't she even draw a city formation, and directly refined it in a large area?
Don't look at Edward's young age, but he has some eyes for a long time, and he also knows how to observe and think
"The refining of the human body is not counted, but it is almost the same~"
The astonishing speed of using alchemy to quickly recover the wounds of the human body is simply against the sky, if you really want to give an evaluation......
"But it's okay to bring the dead back to life~"
Estes, who was used to being with the uneducated crying and noisy little kid in Ishbal, didn't take the brothers in front of him too seriously, just regarded them as part of a child's curiosity.
It should be said that these two imps make Estes feel good, not very noisy, and it seems that they can communicate with each other, not like the children of Ishbal......
'May the gods bless you~' such idiotic words
"What? ~Do you have any illnesses that you need my sister's help to see? ~”
Estes, who worked hard to kill the four large bowls of stew, was in a good mood~ At this time, if Edward and they made any requests, maybe Estes would really agree
"No, no~ It's nothing, it's just...... Haha~ Just ask, just ask~"
and his younger brother Al glanced at each other, and the two little ghosts used their own brothers to understand the eyes of each other's 'play'.
Then he stopped pestering and let Estes eat well.
After all, people are not familiar with themselves now, and there are some things that can wait.
"By the way, are you two the only ones in the house? What about your mothers and fathers? Did the work go? ~”
When the whole pot was almost empty, Estes was in the mood to observe the house, which was not very diligent and clean.
It's not sloppy, but it's not very orderly.
There is a lot of dust on the kitchen stove, which means that it has not been used for a long time, and there are bookshelves in many places in the house, and there are a lot of books on them, indicating that the family should like to read books very much, so it is a literate job......
"Nope."
The antenna-headed boy smiled bitterly and said
"No, Mother. He passed away last year. ”
Looking at the young man's pain and longing, Estes knew that he seemed to have touched the boy's pain.
"I'm sorry ,......"
I couldn't help but feel very sorry and sad, and somehow, when I heard him say that her mother was gone, Estes herself suddenly thought of her mother, the only person in the family who worried and worried her.
For his father's feelings, Estes admires and respects, loves but never worries.
Who is Estes' father? The most assertive and capable man in the country, the man who rules the whole country, is superfluous to worry about him, at least that's what Estes thinks. And Selim's goods are also a bullshit guy, and he has never worried about this cheap brother Estes.
“…………”
Looking at the two teenagers' longing expressions for their mothers, it was almost the same as how he felt when he saw the mother's letter that his father brought to him in Briguz.
It was a longing for my mother, a nostalgia for my mother's voice, warmth, taste, and embrace.
At that time, Estes thought that he was so mature, but he only remembered that his mother, who had not seen him for seven years, shed tears, and the two brothers ......
"Reminds you of sad things."
Next year will be so much younger than when I came back from Saibei, but I have lost my mother, not for seven years but never again, feel the warmth, see the smile, hear the care, smell the food, and embrace the happy mother's embrace.
"I'm sorry."
Somehow, Estes found himself feeling much more sentimental than he had been after a few months at the Rockbell Clinic.
Obviously, he led people to kill so many Dragumas in Sebei, and he didn't feel it, but now when he saw the two brothers, just seeing them like this, Estes felt like he had a stone tied to his heart.
What's wrong with you?
Estes couldn't help but ask herself.
In the case of orphans, there are many, many encounters in Ishbal Estes.
But never before has it been shown as it is now, and there is no sympathy for those orphaned Estes, then......
What's going on with the self in front of you?
While continuing to destroy the last bowl of stew in a more oppressive atmosphere, Estes's eyes inadvertently met the eyes of the antenna boy.
With that look, Estes knew the answer.
Because strong and powerful.
The boy was short and not physically strong, but the look, the kind of look that interested Estes......
It is the eyes of the strong, the courage to face difficulties and challenges, and the eyes full of determination with their own hands.
Sadness is just a seasoning in this nostalgic look, and the real main course is the strength of struggle.
The confidence and arrogance that wipes away tears and challenges the middle finger of countless unknown difficulties. This kind of unknowing expression that dares to challenge the difficulties of the world is what Estes loves.
Because that's the way I am.
It's very similar, this teenager, and himself, is not talking about personality or appearance, but about thoughts.
They are all the eyes of arrogant imps who believe that their own efforts can challenge the difficulties of the world. The arrogance of believing that you can change the world.
"What are you planning? Gremlin? ”
Putting away his mildness and smiling face, Estes asked with a slightly cruel sternness
"Huh?"
I don't know what's going on, what's wrong with the doctor who just talked and laughed before eating? Turning your face after eating? That's too fast, isn't it?
"I don't know what you're expecting, but I hope you work hard."
Putting away the dishes and taking them to the kitchen to wash them, Estes said
"But don't forget, there will be a return if you pay, if you don't pay enough, you won't get what you want, and so the price increase is the rule of our world, and if you don't work hard enough to get what you want, if you want to pull the stars and the sun down from the sky, please gather enough strength and ......"
Then he turned back and waited for the teenagers' reaction
"If there are opportunities and opportunities in front of you, don't let them go, opportunities are always fleeting, and you can't earn any opportunities with the mood of waiting and seeing!"
I finally understood that I had been a teenager since just now...... The main thing is what my brother gave me strange feelings.
Isn't that how I felt when I was with my teacher? The desire to know, to learn, to know, to contribute to one's ambitions and dreams.
"If there's anything you want to ask, or something you want to say, tell me now! Don't hide it! ”
After a full meal, the intelligent brain blood supply is restored, and Estes, who is in a full state, how can he not understand the thoughts of the two little children. Don't you just want to learn alchemy? Just say no?
The possibility of medicine Estes didn't even think about it, the two teenagers knew Wen Li, so how could they not know the Rockbells? There are such good doctors in front of them, how can they not learn to find themselves.
"Do you want to learn alchemy?"
