Chapter 82: The Bird of Thorns

Self-confidence is a good quality, but it does not mean that having self-confidence will necessarily find the path you have traveled.

Yi got lost, and in the process of going out for a book for the first time, he got lost.

The smartest and dumbest way to get lost is to stay where you are and wait for someone who cares about you to come to you. That's what she did, believing that Camila would come to her after she found out she was lost.

Camilla, who is entrusted by others, is definitely the person who cares the most about Nirvana Town, but she is by no means the only one.

The speaker of Nirvana Town, Heine, who unlocked seventeen pairs of genetic sequences, still has some impressions of Luo who once looked for him. But Lo has left Nirvana Town, leaving behind a work of art that has scared the trainees of the entire training camp for a long time.

Heine's reprimand for Camilla was just to show his attitude, after all, it was Heyman's dependents who were killed by Camilla's punch, and Heine needed to give Heyman an explanation, an attitude.

But that's about it.

Before Camilla, Heine found Yi who was sitting quietly on the side of the road in Nirvana's small town. She was looking down at the slightly yellowed book in her hand, seemingly unaware of Heine's arrival.

Heine was tall, and as the eldest daughter of the Cardiffon family, she did not seem to have inherited the noble and elegant aristocratic temperament of the Cardivan family, nor did she have the humility that Heyman often wore on his face.

From this alone, Heyman seems better suited than Heine to control the direction and rise and fall of the Cardivan family.

Heine's dress is casual, casual and similar to Panis, who grew up in the wilderness.

Her long, messy hair is haphazardly pulled behind her ears, a brown bun is tied with a transparent headband inlaid with crystal flowers, pale brown crescent-shaped eyebrows, and a faint shadow on either side of the straight nose.

Heine's face was very three-dimensional, similar to her father, who was the patriarch.

Unlike Heidi's mechanical coldness that comes from the bone marrow, the cold aura emanating from Heine is more like a camouflage, a protective color of family dignity.

Heine was not as cold as she seemed, and she even began to take the initiative to talk to Snuggling who was sitting on the side of the road.

"Lost little one, you seem to need some help, I should have enough time and patience, and will be more than happy to send you back."

Heine sat down beside Yi and glanced at the thick book in Yi's hand.

Thorn Bird.

A novel that was famous in old times, Heine knew it was supposed to be about love, but she hadn't read it.

In the wilderness, reading is the patent of the aristocracy, and it is also a compulsory course for the cultivation of aristocratic temperament. The two sisters, Heine and Heidi, of the Cardivan family, read more books than even Hemando combined.

But this so-called love classic is incompatible with this wilderness that only needs blood and strength, just like the girl in front of her who is immersed in a poignant love story in a book.

Yi did not feel the slightest unpleasant to be disturbed, and she placed the short silk thread at the cuff in the page before closing the book and looking up at Heine, who was already sitting beside her.

The speaker of Nirvana Town sat with Yi on the mottled and rough pile of logs on the side of the road.

"Thank you, and I'd like to stay here a little longer, if I can."

Yi's smile was still bright, and she didn't seem to heed Camila's advice not to smile at strangers.

"I read the confusion in your beautiful eyes, and I should be a qualified solver if you will. After all, I'm a lot older than you, aren't I? ”

"I have a little bit of a doubt about what this book is about."

Yi was still smiling at Heine, the small hand covered in the isolation gown rubbing the already slightly rough cover of the book in his hand, and the delicate and small bracelet on his wrist stood out in the not strong sunlight.

Camilla knew that Yi was not suitable for exposure to sunlight, so she gave her a set of isolation gowns that could block radiation. When it comes to repaying Heidi's favors, Camilla doesn't cut corners in the slightest.

Heine certainly knew the origin of the bracelet on his wrist, which was one of the reasons why the wilderness trainees who had nowhere to vent their energy did not dare to bother with Yi, and the effect was even better than Lowe's elaborate artwork.

Heine didn't speak, but curled up his slender legs like Ina, and squeezed the little girl into the small by the side of the road.

"Will Ralph, who yearns for ecclesiastical power, really give up his obsessive pursuit of God for the sake of Meggie, an ordinary girl in the Cleary family? Or will he eventually give up worldly love and compromise with his God? As you can see, I haven't finished the book yet, and I don't know the final outcome yet. ”

An apologetic smile appeared on Yi's face and she lowered her head slightly.

Heine had a smile on her face, too, but her smile was already slightly awkward.

She hadn't read any of these books that were worthless to survival, and she didn't know what Ralph and Meggie were. On that point alone, she doesn't seem to be a qualified puzzle solver.

This girl wearing a thick isolation gown and sitting in the shade of the roadside in Nirvana Town with a little doubt is actually discussing with herself the bumpy love road of the hero and heroine in the old era romance novels?

Love?

In a new era in which girls have the ability to reproduce at the age of almost ten, in this damn wilderness, in the inner training camp of the Cardivan family, love is definitely a strange and withdrawn thing.

Heine wasn't embarrassed for long, not even the smile on her face faded in the slightest.

"I'm sorry, I haven't read the book in your hand. But in my opinion, the pursuit of God should be the ultimate way forward, and other things like love and friendship are just occasional forks in the road. ”

Heine didn't mention family affection, she wasn't stupid, she knew what to avoid.

The speaker of Nirvana Town, Heine, who unlocked seventeen pairs of genetic sequences, began to discuss the plot in the book with Yi. Although she had not read the book, that did not prevent her from expressing her opinion.

That's the advantage of seniors.

Listening to Heine's words, the book in his hand tightened slightly.

How do you be sure that the quest for God is the ultimate right direction, not a fork in the road? Ralph and Meggie and love, does it have to be wrong? ”

"It is wrong that love is different, but it is a fork in the road compared to the pursuit of God."

"Is the right fork in the road also the right way to the right end?"

Yi's question silenced Heine.

This girl seems to be a little stupid, otherwise how could she ask such a stupid question.

Just like this brutal wilderness, every living being, including humans, is frantically evolving in order to survive, unlocking pairs of genetic sequences and striding in the direction of ultimate evolution. This is the pursuit of God, and the right to live in this new age of hell.

Under the haze of dying at any time, love, family affection, and friendship have long become dispensable.

Heine lowered her head and looked at the girl sitting beside her.

Yi, at this moment, raised his head and looked at the friendly but cold speaker of Nirvana Town in front of him.

Following the other party's gaze, I saw disapproval, and a faint chill.

Heine's eyes saw fragile stubbornness and a faint blue.

She turned out to be a girl with blue eyes.

Heine stretched lazily and slowly stood up. She knew that maybe she didn't need to send the girl back, because the person who picked her up had already arrived.

Camilla was standing behind the two, staring coldly at Heine, who was sitting side by side with Yi.

"Did Instructor Camilla come for me, or did he come for her?"

Heine didn't believe that without Camilla's care, she would have had the opportunity to wear this valuable isolation gown, and the man who guarded her in the wilderness didn't look like he had a lot of gold.

"The child is lost, and I have to come and pick her up."

Camilla whispered back to Heine, strode over, and stood beside Yi.

"Is it Heidi?"

Heine chuckled, she didn't care about Camilla's slightly disrespectful attitude, Camilla was not a member of the Cardivan family, let alone a dependent of the Cardivan family.

And having been an instructor in Nirvana Town for so long, Camilla didn't have the slightest idea of getting closer to herself.

"I owe Heidi a favor, I don't like to owe a favor, it keeps me up and down."

Camilla's words were as direct as her fists, without the slightest hint of concealment or evasion.

"Well, dear Instructor Camilla, you don't need to be so nervous, I'm just a little interested in the guy who killed the Heyman Attached. Besides, sooner or later, my dear brother will come over to inquire about the cause of his dependent's death, and you'd better think of a decent excuse to prevaricate him, he might already be on his way. ”

Heine waved his hand at Yi, who was standing stiffly behind Camilla, and turned to walk towards his distant dwelling.

Camilla waited until Heine's figure finally disappeared before she breathed a sigh of relief.

The humble and cold-blooded Heyman, the cold and crazy Heidi, the changeable and contradictory Heine.

She has been in Nirvana Town for many years, but she still can't understand Nirvana Town's changeable personality.

Heine's actions have no rules at all, and seem to depend entirely on his own likes and dislikes, like a child who has been spoiled since childhood.

Camila finally glared at Yi, who was looking at her apologetically, before walking towards the library where she was staying with the little burden who would get lost with the map.
