Chapter Seventy-One: Orange's First Love?
Looking at the back of the priest's departure, Mayu felt that it was almost time to go back, but this guy Beo seemed to have a different opinion.
"That guy is suspicious, huh? Orange's attitude seems to be a little different. Well, it tastes a little similar to when I met you in Japan before. ”
"Huh?" I seem to have heard something terrible...... Mayu rubbed his chin and thought about it, and finally gave up the option to follow, it was just a whim, and now that his curiosity is satisfied, it's time to go back.
"Hey, Beo, I'll go back first, don't be too late, if the orange gets angry and cuts off your dinner, I won't make it for you to eat."
Speaking non-threatening words, Maha's path to the school building. Behind him, Beo replied in a coping style, "Zhilu Dao, it's really annoying!" "That's right, the relationship between the two was already very cold, and today they are just working together because they have a common goal.
The school building is still quiet, and the sound of the wind blowing the leaves is clear. There was no sign of the temporary guard barrier placed around the school building before leaving, and it seemed that the enchantment set up by Orange to expel idlers within the school building was quite effective - although Mawa felt that this place was so cold that it was haunted and that no one would usually come.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, the orange returned. Usually, she comes back before dark.
"I'm back! Today's dinner was hearty! Orange's tone showed that the owner of the voice was in a good mood, "Hey, what about the boy Beo?" ”
"He's out of the woods to play." Maha didn't hesitate to sell Beo.
"Huh?" Orange covered his mouth in surprise, probably because he didn't expect Beo, who had been obediently staying in the school building for more than ten days, to actually go out, "Did he say where to go?" ”
"No, but you followed shortly after you left, and if you look at the time, you'll be back soon." Since they are all sold, Mayu will give Beo another black pot by the way.
"I see!" The orange is obviously from Maha's words; Something comes to mind.
"For children who are in the growth period, they must be disciplined well, otherwise they will become bear children in the future." Mayu continued to mend the knife.
About an hour later, there was the sound of slight footsteps outside, followed by Beo's voice.
"I'm back—"
Beo, who entered the workshop in human form, was greeted by a smiling but bruised orange, and Maha, who was sitting next to her and drinking tea leisurely, and the beast's intuition told him that something was not going well.
"I'm worried about coming back so late, sister!" Looking at Beo, who was a little dazed, Orange's smile became brighter, "As an instructor and master, I need to teach you a lesson!" Sit for me! ”
"Huh? Failed......" Beo, who had forgotten time for some reason, seriously reflected on his concept of time, "Also, I hate to sit upright!" ”
"Beo is disobedient......"
"I'm not wrong! Although I went out for no reason, I was not noticed even if I went out. ”
"Haven't been found? Are you going to play in the mountains? The orange's voice softened, if it was playful, it was not incomprehensible, after all, it was just a child in mind.
"No, I'm following the oranges! You didn't find out, did you? Beo smirked, "By the way, and the guy next to you, too." ”
"Huh?" Zhenyu looked at the war that affected him with an innocent face: "What am I?" ”
"Eh, you don't admit it? Apparently the two of us are tracking oranges together! Beo's eyes widened, completely unaware that his comrades-in-arms on the same front had betrayed him.
"What are you talking about? I've been reading here all afternoon. "Zhenyu's acting skills are impeccable, and he can win the Oscar. In fact, it's not right to say that it's acting, it's completely true to act, and it only takes a small hint to make yourself forget about going out in the afternoon for a while.
"You're fooling!" Beo cried out in dissatisfaction.
"Looks like we need to have a good talk, Beo, not only did she go out casually, but she also learned to lie." The good impression that has always made Orange believe Maha's words.
"Woo......" Beo screamed in his throat.
Seeing his appearance, Orange sighed, "Forget it, I'll forgive you this time." But you're going to tell me why you're not hidden, you should be very conspicuous. ”
"Don't. It's a secret, if you tell Orange, you won't have a chance next time. Beo shook his head, then tried to change the subject awkwardly: "Today's orange is very happy!" Especially when meeting with that priest! ”
“!!” Orange's eyes widened, and she truly reflected her surprise.
"Huh?" Not only Beo, but even Maha, who was on the side, was surprised by the orange's gaffe.
He ...... It can't be your man, right? Beo suddenly threw an explosive question.
Smiling wordlessly, Orange plucked his eyes and stared at Beo with anger: "There is a limit to the privacy of the inquiry!" ”
It seems that the secret has been touched, and even Zhenyu is paying attention to it now, although it seems to be sour and astringent in his heart - is this jealousy?
"Isn't this normal for the average creature? However, oranges are not ordinary creatures, so I asked. Beo's thinking seems to be following the logic of the beast.
"Forget it." Orange put on his glasses again, and his momentum softened: "It doesn't matter if you tell you, no, even the first love can only be regarded as reluctant, and now it seems that it is just a residue of a fantasy of the miserable life at that time." ”
Although there was indeed no nostalgia on his face, the unusual warmth in Orange's voice made Mawa and Beo frown at the same time. Inexplicably, a killing intent rose in Zhen Yu's heart, and sure enough, the priest or something, it's better to die.
- Jealous men are terrible.
"Orange still likes him?" This time it was Maha, and this answer would determine the life and death of the priest.
"No, I'm no longer obsessed. He was like a friend of mine at that time, and when I saw him, I felt nostalgic for my simple self at that time. Orange shook her head and said in a nostalgic tone, "In this regard, Mayu is the same, I remember that when we first met, I was in the most troubled stage!" ”
In this regard, Zhenyu has the impression that the mental condition of the orange when they first met was actually not good, and because the desperate efforts could not meet the requirements of his grandfather, the orange at that time was under great psychological pressure. The hope that carries the demon path of the Aozaki family is her biggest shackle, and it is precisely because of this that when she was told that the inheritance was inherited by Aoko, the revenge and curse against the Aozaki family would be so intense.
Listening to Orange's words, this time it was Beo's turn to frown, he didn't understand Orange's words, but the taste, which he hated and liked, made him feel irritated: "I don't understand. ”
"That's because you don't like or hate it, so you can't understand human feelings."
"I still don't understand."
Looking at Beo with a question mark on his face, Mayu sighed: "Maybe it's a good thing that I don't understand." If you live with human feelings, there will be a lot of unexpected gains that you didn't have before, but for fantasy species, maybe it's more of a constraint, after all, the idea of longevity and short-lived species is completely two different concepts. ”
As the closing remarks, the discussion was over, and it was time for dinner.
Now that the church has agreed, it is time for the temptation......
