Chapter 31: A Stranger

When Si Moxue returned to the hotel, she happened to see the woman in the next room open the door and come out.

The woman wears flowers and branches, and she looks like she has heavy makeup and dust.

Her eyes swept over Si Moxue, who was wearing field pants and overalls, and then stopped at Si Moxue's chest. Immediately, the woman snorted loudly, don't look over, shook her ass, and walked away with her proud upper circumference.

Sim Xue: "......"

How could she see the meaning of disdain in the woman's gaze.

Shaking his head, throwing all those who had and didn't come to mind, Si Moxue opened the door and walked into his room.

Doll and Mia had woken up and were arguing in the room about something.

Seeing Si Moxue coming in, Taoer took the lead in complaining to her: "Moxue, Mia, she must wear pink clothes, otherwise she will not go out." ”

Mia was still wearing the thin old nightdress from yesterday, her bare skin was shivering in the low temperature in the morning, she hugged her arms, and said to Si Moxue with an aggrieved face: "I like pink things the most, the clothes my mother bought for me in the past were all pink, and she said that I look the best in pink." ”

"The problem is that you don't have your mom to buy you clothes now." Doll said with a cold face.

When Mia heard this, she lowered her head suddenly, her eyes were red, and she looked like she wanted to cry.

"Okay, Mia, let's wear a different color today, and ...... in the morning Oh no, in the afternoon, when we go to buy food, can we buy you a few clothes? Just received a large reward, Si Moxue was in a happy mood and comforted with a good voice.

"Mo Xue!" Before Mia could speak, Doll called out first, "Can you not get used to her so much?" ”

"You buy new clothes, too, and me, all three." Si Moxue pressed down with both hands, signaled to be calm, and then said, "Tao'er, come over for a while." ”

Todd glared at Mia, who stuck out her tongue at her and obediently got dressed.

Seeing Taoer coming, Si Moxue pulled her behind the door and whispered, "This mission rewards a lot of money, and it's okay to be a little extravagant." She was referring to buying clothes for Mia.

Then Si Moxue stuffed a package into Thor's arms, and stuffed a handful of Gray coins into the package: "You give this package to the Lucas family in District 5, that family's father and son are both mixed with the big sickle gene, and the mother is a mixed with tiger genes." You just drop off the package at their door and knock on the door. ”

Doll pushed her glasses and took the package obediently, but still asked suspiciously, "Why do you want to send something to their family?" ”

Si Moxue pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled: "I owe them ...... Go and come back quickly, I'll be waiting for you at the door of the hotel. ”

Todd's movements were really fast, and as soon as Sim Moxue and Mia packed their luggage and left the room, she appeared at the door of the hotel.

"Done?" Si Moxue asked.

"Yes." Dore replied angrily, "The child doesn't know if it's because his eyes are bad or what, he actually calls me brother!" ”

"Whew-"

Mia snorted and laughed: "Look at you, your waist, bust, and hips are almost a number, and you have that old-fashioned pair of glasses, if it weren't for your long hair, I would have thought you were a man's meow." ”

Taoer was already angry all the way, but now when Mia said it, she was even more angry: "You eat and drink for nothing, you are embarrassed to talk here, do you want to be ashamed?" ”

"Why did I eat and drink for nothing?" Mia asked rhetorically, and then calmly took out an identity card, "I have the identity of a junior wasteland hunter, and I can take tasks to make money." ”

"You're a Wasteland Hunter too?" Not only Tao'er, but Si Moxue also asked in surprise.

"That's right, I was idle last year, and I took the test. What, you're not? ”

Doll suddenly choked on his chest, tried hard for a long time before swallowing, and then said angrily, "I'm not." ”

She took off her eyes depressedly and wiped the dust off them with the placket of her clothes: "I have no problem with my eyesight, I wear glasses because...... When I look at things with the naked eye, my head hurts. Doll put her glasses on.

"Oh?"

It was also the first time that Si Moxue had heard Taoer say this, she was not a person who got to the bottom of it. She had asked Tao Er why she wore glasses before, but Tao Er only said that it would be inconvenient not to wear glasses, and Si Moxue did not ask again.

"That's an interesting problem!" Mia complained.

After a moment of fighting, the three of them left their luggage at the front desk and walked out of the hotel door with dignity -

Instead of running around the oasis to complete their tasks today, they went to find a rental house that suited them and bought a few new outfits at the same time.

It was already approaching noon, and the vendors had lined the street with their goods full of goods, and the sound of shouting and arguing was everywhere.

There are a lot of people on the streets these days, and the streets are very noisy. Because the oasis's annual anniversary is coming.

The Continental Day commemorates the day when the oasis was built, and on that day, whether poor or rich, noble or lowly, they would take out part of their savings to buy some food that they would not normally buy, and celebrate it. It is not only the end of the past year, but also the outlook for the coming year.

In the bustling crowd, Mia wore a freshly bought flower hat on her head and was shuttling around like a butterfly.

"This version is too ugly...... This pattern is too earthy...... This fabric is so bad, meow, why don't I have clothes I like? Mia looked at a dozen stalls selling clothes, but none of them caught her eye.

Simon and Dore followed behind with a few bags of things, watching Mia linger in front of the stall. Taoer sighed indignantly: "She is really familiar, it didn't take long for her to treat herself as a young lady." ”

Si Moxue said: "I wish I could be heartless like her, and make trouble if I have nothing to do." Seeing her smiling all day long, I feel that my mood has improved. ”

Doll made an undeniable expression.

"Xiao Xue'er, Peach, come on, the clothes in this house are good." Mia paused in front of a stall and shouted to the two behind her.

Si Moxue let out a "hitch" and walked over with her things. Doll sighed and followed.

The quality of the clothes in that stall was really good, and the price was reasonable, just when Si Moxue was about to pay for it. Since Si Moxue came over, the stall owner who had been silently observing her shouted:

"Sim Xue?"

"Huh? Do you know me? Si Moxue looked up at the stall owner.

The stall owner was a middle-aged man with skewed muscles, with short, stiff dark gray hair that stood up at the roots. There was a scar on his cheek, an eye was blind, and his right hand was cut off by Qi Gen for unknown reasons.

In Si Moxue's impression, she didn't know such a man.

"I'm ......" The stall owner looked excited, and his body trembled slightly, "I'm your former neighbor, Kaito." ”

"Uncle Kaito!" Si Moxue exclaimed in surprise. Even though years had passed, she still remembered how Uncle Cato had helped them when they were in the congregation. He was able to survive that attack of the corpse beast herd, and Sim Moxue was very happy.

But the difference between Kaito's appearance and Si Moxue's memory was too great, so she couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Kaito, your hand is ......"

"Eaten by corpse beasts." Kaito reached out and touched the empty sleeve on his right, and said gloomily.

"That's it......" The conversation between her mother and Kaito outside the shack back then, Si Moxue hid behind the door and heard a little, knowing that Kaito missed the opportunity to escape in order to help Si Moxue's mother and daughter lure away the corpse beast.

"Don't talk about that, what about your mother?" Kaito waved his hand, then asked with a smile of delight as he stood up and searched the crowd around Si Moxue with expectant eyes.

"I went back to your mom and you. I wonder how you've been doing in the past few years? ”

"Uncle......" Si Moxue looked at Kaito's hopeful look, and almost couldn't bear to interrupt him. After a moment's hesitation, she muttered, "Mom, Mom, she's already killed in that corpse attack. ”

"Ah, that's it......" Kaito's eyes dimmed instantly, and then he pulled himself up again, "That's fine, lest she be frightened when she sees me like this." ”
