Chapter Seventy-Seven: Consent
Well...... In the late summer of July, the sun is supposed to be shining in the town guard's house, but in the most prosperous wide street in the town, it is just as warm as the winter sun.
Who knows what this will be...... Perhaps, because of latitude? So is there a big difference in temperature?
In short, this kind of sunshine is not annoying, and it will warm people's hearts.
It's like holding your arm just now, right......
Daofeng thought so, it was the first time she had been so cared for, and she was already able to walk on her own, although her body was not fully recovered, but it might be because the breakfast was relatively simple and she hadn't fully replenished her energy, right?
Because I just don't have much strength.
The cool breeze blows through the wide streets, which is different from the seaside of the town...... There is no salty, moist seafood.
But it's a nasty guy who is so dry that he cuts his skin.
Well...... However, the people in the neighborhood still look good, not like the kind of old area I stayed in before, at least there are street lights and various small banks, like the best location in the town.
It's not something that the island wind can see by looking at the way these streets look...... It's about observing other people. Because there is basically no one here who has met Shima Feng before, even after she changes her clothes, she will still be attracted to attention wherever she goes.
Naturally, the economy here is not bad, and everyone will not pay too much attention to some good-looking people.
"How far is it? ……”
I heard it just now, and the other party said that he was going to a store, and the island wind would not forget it so soon.
This is a very wide street, so the other party's destination is very bright, and the island wind does not have the feeling that the other party will lie to himself, but his mentality is much better, looking at Ling Yixiao beside him and said.
"It's not far, it's not far, just turn the corner at the intersection in front of you."
Seeing that Shimafeng's state was really much better than she said, and that she seemed to be in a good mental state, Shimafeng's adoptive mother replied with a smile happily.
"Hmm......"
With two small hands behind his back, Island Feng looked at the cloudless blue sky, twisted his waist and looked behind him curiously, and the long silver hair that was swaying was also smoothly slicing together in the air, and the simple and lovely girlish nature was undoubtedly revealed.
Well...... Although Island Wind does not lack reason, nor does it lack an accurate sense of crisis and judgment, but in this rare safe environment, his most simple and simple side is inadvertently revealed.
It's just that she herself naturally didn't notice it.
Maybe it would be nice if she could live in such a peaceful and comfortable environment as she is now.
It wasn't a very close distance, although it was a distance that could only be reached by turning a corner, but it took five minutes before Ling Yixiao's footsteps stopped.
As far as her eyes could see, there was a small and large-scale restaurant.
The main tone of the restaurant is black and white, the black and white of the walls is slightly modern, and the small colored lights with a little embellishment also have some chic style......
However, there are no guests to be seen.
This is it, right?
Although the island wind feels like this, it ...... I always feel that Ling Yixiao next to him has a little worry in his eyes?
Shima Feng doesn't think it's an illusion.
"Yes...... Is there anything strange about it? ”
Island Feng tilted his head, put his hands behind his back, and gently took a small step to his side, quite girlish at the same time, but also puzzled.
"Huh? …… Ah, nothing, let's go in first, it's a little chilly outside. ”
Listening to Daofeng's question, she unsurprisingly stayed a little slowly in the reflex arc before speaking quickly again.
Shima Feng didn't care much about this problem, so he nodded convincingly and walked in.
When you look at it from the inside, it's a little different from the outside.
Because it's a lot warmer inside, and although there's the warmth of the sun outside, the air is really cold...... And in this, it is the comfort of both sunlight and air.
"Yan Feng?"
Ling Yixiao walked to the deepest part of the store, which seemed to be the backstage place.
“……?”
Island Feng sat on the leather two-seater sofa seat closer to the door, and watched Ling Yixiao, who had just passed by him, go backstage.
Before she could come up with anything famous, she saw the backstage door open at the very back of the store.
The location of the island wind is clearly visible...... Inside was a young man with a face of about fifteen, his hair was a little shorter, and his figure was not strong.
He wears a white chef's uniform on top and bottom, but he doesn't wear a chef's hat that looks a little silly on the boy's head.
And he's a lot like ...... The chef here?
"Is there anything you need to say?"
His expression seemed to be a little stiff, there was an aura of indifference, and there didn't seem to be many movements, but his eyes looked at Ling Yixiao, who was a little taller than him...... It's obviously shorter than others, but it's still stronger.
"The ......"
It seemed that it was a little difficult to speak, Ling Yixiao's eyes glanced at other places, and his face looked a little embarrassed.
"I brought a baby back......"
It should be that since he has done it, he has to be responsible, Ling Yixiao hesitated for a while, but still said it.
And the young man in front of him, his expression did not change at all, but the look of his eyes changed slightly.
"Don't tell me, that's why you didn't come here this morning? …… It's okay, there are no guests today, don't worry, since our situation is a little special these days, I don't have anything to say......"
His tone was not hurried, and seemed to be very calm, but inadvertently, his eyes looked at the island wind who was hiding on the sofa behind him and showing his small head to observe.
“……”
The other party's eyes were a little sharp, and Daofeng couldn't help but retract all the faces below his eyes under the back of the sofa.
The situation seems a little delicate.
"But I'm sure you also know that the situation has been really special lately, and I'm afraid it's going to be very difficult to solve our own livelihood problems, right? ……”
Although the young man's words were not explicitly stated, he also saw in what capacity Dao Feng came here with Ling Yixiao, and he was secretly here, giving an order to evict guests.
"I didn't ...... No problem, kid ......."
That young man, should be Ling Yixiao's family?
Daofeng was a little incomprehensible, and his brows furrowed, since she had a family, there was no general reason why she needed the spiritual support of her family to adopt orphans, right?
Is it just out of sympathy for yourself?
In the final analysis, it is only possible for 200 years to adopt orphans with a kind heart without their own purposes...... Now is the era of war, many areas are due to the lack of materials, poverty and hunger staged an absolutely unwitnessable tragedy, while the rest of the people can only sigh helplessly to watch, everyone's life is based on survival, enjoyment as the standard model...... But in any case, the enjoyment will end one day, so no matter what, you should not waste what you have, this is the life of all the people in the town and the rear of the country.
I don't know much about the island wind, but I also know a little bit about it, because I don't have any training in the town guard mansion, so I often go to the bustling streets of the town guard mansion.
Even if it's the Admiral's town guard's house...... The economy is very developed, and the pace of life is fast, but there is almost no concept of enjoyment in everyone's work.
In times of peace, you may still be able to receive state funding and care, but in this era, the town guard and the state will not sympathize with anyone who is worthless......
So it stands to reason that what the boy said was right...... Now that they already have two people, there is no need to add any more pressure.
But Ling Yixiao's eyes seemed to signal the island wind to come.
“……”
The wordless island wind only silently approached the two of them under that somewhat uncomfortable sharp eye.
"It's okay...... Look at him. ”
Ling Yixiao just said that.
Because Daofeng lowered his head a little, neither the boy could see each other's faces.
She still listened to Ling Yixiao's words, so she slowly raised her head and looked at the young man with the same indifferent expression as usual.
“…… Not! ”
And the young man on the other side, after seeing his face, his expression, which had been unmoved, suddenly changed, as if he had been electrocuted, and he could even clearly let Daofeng hear a little sound in his mouth.
“……?”
Shimafu, who didn't understand why the other party had such a reaction, looked at the other party very sluggishly.
“……”
The boy's hands were clenched and his teeth were clenched, but he could feel that it was not anger.
"Okay...... Since that's the reason, I don't have much to say......"
Ling Yixiao's expression was somewhat similar to that of the young man, and he seemed to be revealing some very strange emotions...... Shimakaze didn't have a way to understand.
And the young man's words were said after looking at Shimafeng's face and carefully observing Shimafeng's figure.
After looking at me...... Just agreed?
Shima Feng always felt a little strange.
"But I have to explain first, even my mother has a job in the store, so since you agree to join, you can at least help?"
After the boy sighed, he could only say that.
"Oh...... Oh. ”
Of course, Island Wind nodded in agreement.
But...... She still couldn't figure it out.
Why did he ...... saw his own appearance, so much so that he understood Ling Yixiao...... And what about agreeing directly?
Completely clueless......
