Chapter 12: The President's Daughter
The scorching sun hung high in the sky, and even the benevolent white clouds could not hide its arrogance, and fled one after another. The grey finches were crying miserably in the trees, and the black cicadas were comfortably chilling under the trees, and it was August. I don't know how many days have passed, and the drowsy Kazi is watching "Introduction to the Complete Works of Cold ***" on the sofa and some simple information about the demons. In fact, he didn't want to watch it at all, so as soon as he had the opportunity to take advantage of the absence of Yin Yun, the big devil, he secretly turned on the TV on the opposite wall and wanted to watch the cartoon "Chilled Penguin" that was suitable for clearing the heat and relieving the heat.
But in the end, he fell asleep before he knew it, thanks to "Chilled Penguin". Yin Yun, who came back from the kitchen, saw that Kazi was sleeping soundly, and in order to express the helpless pity in his heart, he seriously brewed a cup of black coffee and handed it to the table. When he woke up, Kazi's eyes lit up when he saw the coffee, who was so kind to make him a drink to quench his thirst? He couldn't wait to pick up the cup and drink it to his stomach, the bitter taste surrounded his mouth, and Kazi hurriedly covered his throat with his hand and wanted to spit it out, but it was too late. He stood up and ran to the water dispenser with his cup to flush a glass of water, the taste in his mouth was immediately diluted, and he pretended to be finally relieved, and secretly glanced at the conference room on the right.
"Hey? Anyone? ”
Kazi looked back and saw a little sister standing in the doorway trying to walk in, as if she were a few years younger than him.
"Hey! Hold it! This is a place for adults, not for a kid like you. Kazi hurried over to her and yelled at her.
"Call me a child...... Aren't you a kid yourself? The girl pointed at him.
"This is my home, and my life depends on everyone." Kazi couldn't make up any other reason for this.
"I'm here to find my dad, is he there?"
"There are several dads here, which dad are you looking for?"
In an instant, Kazi's head was knocked with his fingers, and he covered his head with his hands in pain and squatted down, and Yin Yun appeared behind him.
"Ah, Leda, it's been a long time, I'm sorry, the president isn't here today."
"What about Sister Xia Ke? She's not there either. ”
"That's embarrassing." Yin Yun could only smile awkwardly.
"It's okay, I'll come back next time."
Seeing that the well-behaved little Lida was about to leave, Yin Yun also wanted to hold back for a while: "If you want to find a playmate, I have a suitable person here." With that, he took Lacazzi by the hand, and the latter stood up energetically, for he finally had a chance not to "tutor". But Leda's disdainful look seemed to tell him that he was unworthy.
"Okay."
Kazi never expected that she would agree so readily, she really deserves to be the daughter of the president, and her vision is not ordinarily unique.
The city is like a labyrinth of all directions to Kazi, but for Leda, it's as easy as walking around at home. Kazi walked behind her and chatted, and in her red dress she exuded a faint scent of jasmine, which even Kazi was obsessed with.
"Then why did you bring me out?" Kazi finally couldn't help but ask this question that had been buried in the bottom of his heart.
"Because I think you're funny, and you're a native of the countryside." She explained unabashedly.
Kazi couldn't figure out how she could see this, but since she was the daughter of the president, it wasn't surprising that she wanted to know about it.
"Isn't a ten-year-old girl like you afraid of danger when she walks alone on the road?" This question also came to Kazi's mind, and it is strange to think about it, is the security here so good? He had learned from Yin Yun that although monsters like demon wolves did not dare to enter the city easily, there were still unscrupulous people such as gangsters in this city.
"Hehe, actually, I'm secretly protected by bodyguards." Leda said mysteriously in his ear.
"Huh?" Kazi was shocked.
"Lied to you, hahaha."
Seeing that she covered her mouth and nose and laughed secretly, Kazi didn't dare to ask more. He turned his attention to his surroundings, and to be honest, he hadn't seen the city properly, but what to say, the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt.
There is a large leisure park in the center of the city, which everyone calls "Biting". You only have to look there to know that it lives up to its name: there is a large leisure plaza in the center, where some aunts often listen to songs and dance, and around it, a number of leisure facilities are divided, including fitness areas, children's playgrounds, basketball courts, etc., which are no less popular than the central square, and the winding green paths connect these areas.
There is also a small square centered on a fountain at the back of the square, where water gushes out of the jug held by a white sculpture of the saint, and the painted bricks of the square add to it.
"Why do you seem to be sad? Kazi? Lida, who was sitting on the edge of the fountain, noticed that something was wrong with Kazi next to her.
"I've never been to such a beautiful place, and I'm dazzled. It's just that before I came out, I didn't know which bastard wanted to harm me, so he actually brewed a cup of poison for me, and the taste was even more bitter than durian. Kazi slowly raised his head, barely putting on a smile, the bitter taste still echoing in his mouth that hadn't completely disappeared.
"That's coffee, right? It's a refreshment. Lida explained with a smile.
"Coffee? What kind of poison is that? Am I going to die? ”
Lida said that she didn't want to pay attention to this neurosis, but deliberately changed the topic: "By the way, you said you can't read? You wouldn't be illiterate, would you? ”
"yes, I don't know a lot of words. I still remember that I went to school in a private primary school in the village, but I was somehow dissuaded from the school when I was in the fifth grade. Kazi pondered in his head.
"Could it be because you're too stupid?" Lida blurted out inadvertently.
"That's what you say...... Yes! I remember! I was dissuaded because of this black key. As he spoke, Kazi took the key out of his trouser pocket, and when he came to the city of Glen, he took it off and carried it with him, and now it finally had a chance to be exposed to the sun and give a bleak glow.
It was just a very ordinary key, and I couldn't tell what material it was made of, could it be that Kazi stole the key to the school? Lida was about to ask, but Kazi put it down and continued: "In class that day, the teacher asked us which of the best gifts we had received from our parents, and I said that my parents were the best for me because they gave me a black key that could open all the doors in the world. Because of this, I was teased by my classmates, saying that my parents were misers, and some said that my parents were big liars, and I was not convinced, so I went to the school warehouse at night to try to open the door there. As he spoke, tears burst out of his eyes, rolling in his eyes.
"I didn't expect it to really open, and it was ...... standing there It's ......" Kazi unconsciously covered his head, and tears flowed down his chin as if he was in great pain.
"It's okay, it's okay if you can't think of it, it's enough." Leda hurriedly comforted him.
Kazi slowly lowered his hands and put on a smile back on her face. Somehow, the memory went blank at this point, and he couldn't remember it anyway, but he was glad he couldn't remember it, because it was an indelible nightmare for him.
Thanks to Kazi, the atmosphere was suddenly chaotic, and Lida looked up and saw that it was not too early, so she proposed to go back to the Demon Hunter first, and Kazi agreed. There wasn't as much talk along the way as there had been, but Lida finally said she would come back later. Kaqi, who returned to the Demon Hunting Club, exchanged a few words with Xia Ke, who had not long returned, and then knew from her that Bu You had something urgent to find him.
