"Teacher Xiaoluo, goodbye."

"Goodbye Zihan."

"Teacher Xiao Luo, I'll see you tomorrow."

"I'll see you tomorrow."

"Goodbye, Mr. Xiaoluo, you have to eat well~"

"Thank you Yuxin, you also have to eat obediently."

"Goodbye, Mr. Luo." "Goodbye, teacher."

"Goodbye Yuxi and Zichen, be careful when crossing the street."

As a foreigner, it is very difficult to remember the names of every Chinese child, not to mention that most of their names are very similar.

Another child walked past her, braiding apples on top of her head, but the girl pouted and didn't look very happy.

"Arnold!" Lorna took the initiative to call out to her.

The girl thought she could sneak away, but now she had to say goodbye to her listlessly: "Goodbye, Lona, Rona, goodbye-"

The girl's name is Xiaonuo, and her father is a police officer who rarely has time to go home because he is busy with work. Xiaonuo is different from other children, she has been with her father less and more since she was a child, and her personality is stronger and more independent, but her inner fragility and sensitivity make her always insecure.

Every time Lorna sees Xiaonuo, she seems to see her own childhood, so she always has a special preference for her.

Lorna squatted down, looked into Xiaonuo's eyes, and said softly, "Baby, everyone's name has its different meaning. For example, your name is Juno in English. DID YOU KNOW THAT IN OUR MYTHOLOGY, JUNO IS A GODDESS WHO IS BEAUTIFUL, GENTLE, AND INTELLIGENT? You see, Mom and Dad have given you such a great name! So don't be upset by what other children say. She put her mouth to the girl's ear and whispered, "Don't tell anyone, in fact, the teacher thinks your name is the best!" ”

The little girl's expression finally turned from gloomy to sunny, hugged Lorna's face, kissed her, and bounced away.

Lorna sent the last child away before walking back to the classroom and starting the day's routine, wiping tables, sweeping floors, and tidying up toys.

A chubby middle-aged woman came in from outside the classroom, and when she saw that Lorna was still busy, she said, "Lorna, thank you for your hard work." ”

"It's okay, it should be." Lorna replied with a smile as she busied herself with the task at hand.

The middle-aged woman is the director of this "Polaris Kindergarten", surnamed Hu, she is very friendly, and all the teachers affectionately call her "Aunt Hu". It was this Aunt Hu who left her here.

Lorna remembered the events of that day very well, and after she came out of the restaurant, she continued to wander aimlessly around the city, not knowing where she had gone, until she saw three children on the sidewalk on the side of the road, who were clearly not yet able to travel alone.

The girl closest to the side of the road had a pigtail on her head, her face was round like an apple, and she looked very cute, and she said to the other two little boys: "Don't follow me, I'm going to find my father!" ”

The two boys were obviously a little scared of their surroundings, but one of the boys said, "No, Xiaonuo, you can't leave the kindergarten, the teacher said that there will be bad people kidnapping and selling children on the road." ”

Another boy also said, "yes, let's go back." ”

"No! I'm looking for my dad! ”

The girl named Xiaonuo said loudly and rushed into the road without hesitation.

The cars in the lane are driving normally, and there is no zebra crossing here, who would have thought that a child would suddenly rush out, a car is just not far away, and when the driver finds that there is a little girl on the road, it is too late to brake, and the front of the car hit Xiaonuo.

Lorna didn't have time to think about it any more, so she pounced on it, reaching out and pushing it far away.

The car creaked to a halt in front of Arnold, and Lorna rushed up and picked up the girl, who was already cowering in fright.

The driver was also frightened enough at this time that he didn't have the heart to think about why the car stopped suddenly, and hurriedly ran out of the car to inquire about the situation. Lorna didn't understand, and was not sure how to explain it, when a few more women ran by the side of the road, who seemed to be the guardians of these children.

The middle-aged woman in the lead spoke to the driver and let him leave, then she turned back and yelled at another trembling woman before she looked up at Lorna in front of her. She saw that this foreign girl had a beautiful face, and her age was about 20 years old, but she was dirty, and there were some small scars on her face and hands, which was very strange, but fortunately she could speak some simple English, so she asked, "Thank you for saving her, what's your name?" ”

Lorna didn't know what to answer, hesitating whether to walk away or stay here.

"So be it." The woman took her hand, "You go to the kindergarten with us first, wash it first, and by the way, let me know what happened." ”

The woman's hands were warm, which made Lorna feel relieved and followed them back to the kindergarten.

After being introduced, Luo Na learned that this chubby middle-aged woman was Aunt Hu, the director of this private kindergarten. Aunt Hu's English level is average, but even speaking with comparisons, she can communicate with Lorna. After listening to the origin and story of Lorna's half-truths, Aunt Hu couldn't help but sigh for a while, this girl is so pitiful, her mother died when she was a child, she came to China to find her biological father but was stolen by pickpockets, and now she can only live on the streets.

"Do you want me to take you to the police station?" Aunt Hu asked with concern.

Lorna hurriedly shook her head, indicating that she had already been to the government office here, and had met with an official surnamed Zhou.

Aunt Hu was relieved when she heard this, she saw that Lorna had nowhere to go, so she asked her to stay in the lounge of the kindergarten for a few days, and then leave when she had somewhere else to go.

Lorna didn't refuse, for mutants who were used to being on the move, she was satisfied with having a place to sleep, and this place was perfect for her to hide her identity.

And for the children who are always around, she doesn't find anything difficult to accept. There are also many, many mutant children in the Brotherhood base, Lorna, these minors who have not officially joined the battle formation, are usually responsible for taking care of the younger children who have not yet taken care of themselves, Lorna, as the daughter of Magneto, was originally the child king in the camp, and now she is with the children in the kindergarten all day long, without intrigue, intrigues, which makes her feel very comfortable.

Aunt Hu dismissed the aunt who was careless and did not fulfill her caregiving responsibilities that day, and now she is worried about the lack of manpower in the kindergarten, and seeing that Lorna and the children get along very well, she proposes to let her be the caretaker in the kindergarten.

Lorna is very excited about this, but on the other hand, she is worried that her identity is not legitimate.

Aunt Hu took Lorna's hand and said sincerely: "It doesn't matter where you come from, it doesn't matter what kind of person you are, the most important thing is to have a kind heart." She pointed to her eyes and smiled, "I've seen people all my life, and I will never admit it, you are definitely very suitable for this job." ”

Lorna, who was amazed by Aunt Hu's mind and wisdom, also remembered the suffering of mutants, and couldn't help but burst into tears and nodded vigorously.

Since that day, Lorna has stayed in the "Polaris Kindergarten", accompanying the children in class during the day, teaching them some simple English, and also learning Chinese with them, and living in the kindergarten office at night, after two months, her carefulness and understanding have won everyone's praise, and the staff who did not approve of her stay at first have also changed their attitudes, and at the same time, his Mandarin level has improved rapidly, and now he can complete normal communication and dialogue.

Aunt Hu watched Lorna tidy up the classroom from behind, her eyes were full of joy and satisfaction, she was not mistaken, Lorna was indeed a rare good girl. She suddenly remembered something, so she said: "By the way, Lorna, the national kindergarten teacher team is expanding recently, you can try to see if you can take the substitute teacher exam!" ”

Lorna stopped her movements and turned around, a glint in her eyes.

"Substitute teacher?"

...

"Substitute teacher?"

Fu Shenzhou finally took his eyes off the document in his hand and looked at Lorna Dane in front of him suspiciously. She knew that this girl was the daughter of Magneto, and Zhou Kai had deliberately explained in detail about Chen Lu's attack on the Brotherhood base and bringing her to Qiantang when he handed over the work, but he just didn't understand what Lorna was doing to take the teacher's certificate.

While Fu Shenzhou was looking at Luo Na squarely, Luo Na was also carefully looking at the new head of the Special Group Office. Unlike Director Zhou's gentleness and kindness, this Director Fu always gives her a sinister illusion, which may have something to do with his strange beard, and his eyes are very sharp, as if he can see through people's hearts, which makes Lorna a little uneasy. However, he had to answer his questions carefully, so he told him about his recent work and the expansion of kindergarten teachers.

Fu Shenzhou listened very carefully, and in some places he would ask Luo Na to expand and say in detail, and slowly, a smile appeared on his face. After Luo Na finished speaking, Fu Shenzhou asked: "As far as I know, the kindergarten teacher certificate is not something that social personnel can take if they want to, you must first graduate from a related major, right?" ”

Lorna was deflated when she heard this.

"But it's not like there's no way to fix it." Fu Shenzhou smiled incomprehensibly, "You really want to do this job?" ”

Lorna nodded again and again, these two months were the happiest days she lived, she didn't have to think too much about things every day, just play with the children, no one discriminated against her, and no one wanted to arrest her, in this city, she enjoyed a peace of mind that she had never had.

Fu Shenzhou's eyes made Luo Na's heart furious, and just when she couldn't resist her gaze and wanted to stand up and escape, she heard Fu Shenzhou slowly speak: "I am entrusted by Director Zhou to take care of you, and I will definitely help if I can help." Since you love this job so much, so be it! He turned on the computer and scanned the information, then said, "Before the end of the year, there will be a Mandarin level test, if you can reach the level of Level 2 B, then I will help you complete the rest of the work." Remember, this is the only chance, and it's up to you to try to get it. ”

Lorna didn't know what the level of the second class was, it would definitely be difficult anyway, but she decided to fight anyway, and she agreed.

Fu Shenzhou nodded with satisfaction and shouted loudly, "An Jing, come in." ”

The office door opened, and from the outside walked in a woman in a dark blue uniform, she was tall, her skin was a healthy wheat color, and her short to medium hair looked very energetic in her uniform. The female police officer saluted Fu Shenzhou and stood motionless waiting for the order.

"This is a new staff member of the Special Group Office, An Jing, codenamed 'Tiger Shadow'." Fu Shenzhou introduced the female police officer to Luo Na, "In the future, she will be responsible for docking with you, and if you have any problems and need help, you can find her." ”

Lorna knew that this sister was very important, so she took the initiative to greet her, and An Jing was also very friendly, smiling and shaking Lorna's hand.

After the two daughters left, Fu Shenzhou walked to the window with the teacup, and it was his favorite time again.

The sun was about to sink into the distant horizon, and it was shining more brilliant colors, and the colors of the sky were changing rapidly in the light, sometimes red, sometimes pale blue mixed with purple; Sometimes there are blue and gold colors in red.

The sun was completely hidden, but the afterglow in the sky was still not gone, but completely dyed crimson, like a magnificent sea of red, which was very spectacular.

Fu Shenzhou wandered in the blood-red light and closed his eyes comfortably.

One Tang Wyane, and now another Lorna Dane, how will these two mutants develop, it's really exciting!

Luo Na didn't know what the hell Fu Shenzhou was doing, she already knew what the standard of second-level B was, for a foreigner, this was simply an impossible task! Lorna rolled around on the bed, grumbling for a while, but finally decided to get up and listen to the lecture.

Time is already very tight, and it will be really too late if you don't hurry up and study.
