Obviously, in addition to the freezing point of the relationship, the little nun has been avoiding Lan Li, because he can't see each other during ordinary group meals or on weekdays.

Or even if they do, the other party will avoid it in a hurry.

This made Lan Li really depressed, and there were a lot of speculations about it in his heart, and he even unconsciously thought of his "past life".

Probably because he was reincarnated, he has vague memories of some of his past lives, but sometimes he can remember some things vividly, such as the plot of Game of Thrones, and some knowledge and cognition that does not belong to this world.

That's right, in another world, I was in elementary school in a foreign country, and I didn't know him well at that time, but I seemed to have a good friend who played well, and I always liked to play together when I went to and from school every day, and I would introduce him to other friends, and even invite him to my home.

This is a friendship that is worth cherishing for a newcomer who is full of vigilance and nervousness about an unfamiliar environment.

However, just because the other party jokingly said that he wanted to break off his friendship with him in front of other classmates, he directly ignored others, and then when the other party existed, he would always instinctively avoid it......

That kind of speech is actually an expression of intimacy, but the child's mind is obviously irrational and unaware of something that should be taken for granted.

It's naïve and incomprehensible now, but the reaction doesn't come down to moodiness, but to another emotion.

Impaired self-esteem? Or is it inferiority?

"Why does Jazz always smell of mint on his clothes lately?" While Lan Li was pondering and meditating, he returned with a group of washed clothes in his arms, and asked curiously.

The knights' squires were responsible for doing all sorts of menial chores for their masters, including doing laundry, but there were helpers in the living quarters of the Sihuai Sanctuary who volunteered to help with laundry, as long as they sent the dirty clothes over and remembered to pick them up, and now the boy was picking them up.

"Peppermint removes bad breath."

After hearing this, Lan Li replied absentmindedly: "It's okay to chew two pieces, and your mouth will become cleaner." ”

"Is bad breath really contagious?" As soon as he heard this, the boy seemed to think of something, and he didn't notice that there was much obvious connection between bad breath and the smell of his clothes.

"Spreading disease and pestilence? They all say so, and so does Gavin. My brother never talked to people with bad breath. ”

"If it's a bad mood and it's a disease, it does spread." Lan Li replied smoothly, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at the other party.

"Aegon, do you have any friends who are very withdrawn, who are not easy to get along with and who can't figure out what he's thinking all day."

"I don't have any friends."

The boy replied speechlessly.

"Beans may be one, but he actually took the beating for me. Every time I made a mistake, my parents would beat him, and I felt pitiful for him, but I guess he wouldn't treat me as a friend. ”

He said, feeling a little depressed, "It's very deserted in the Red Fort, and my brothers rarely play with me, and my sister may be my only friend anymore, but are relatives and friends the same thing?" ”

Lan Li couldn't answer this question, but after thinking about it, he said: "Relatives can also be friends, as long as the other party is willing to listen to your opinions, and treat you equally, do not reject you, understand you, and are willing to play with you......"

As he spoke, he suddenly had a kind of enlightenment.

Is that really just a sensitivity to self-esteem or inferiority?

I live in my own world, using all the people and things around me as decorations, but I look forward to normal contact with them.

However, after taking that step, you find that you can't integrate into the strange world outside at all, but will be "hurt", so what else can you do but go back?

"So the root of the problem isn't what I seem?" He muttered thoughtfully.

"What are you talking about, Sir?"

"I mean it's time to brush your teeth, Igo, you have bad breath."

"How is this possible!?"

……

So the next day, after the training, Lan Li walked towards Sister Raya's house.

His original idea was to make a hard fuss, or forcibly drag the other person away from her unique world, but when he arrived at the place, he found that he was fighting with someone else.

"You let go of me, you little wild seed, do you have any reason to make a mistake!? Let go, or I'll go to Sister Ada's complaint against you!" ”

The annoyed words were quite sharp, and an old nun with obvious wrinkles was angrily tugging at Sister Raya's messy hair, trying to pull her away, but the little nun was biting the arm of the other young nun like a madman, and let the other party scream with her other hand and slap her continuously, and the tears were all thrown out.

This situation made Lan Li's pace quicken.

"What are you doing?"

"She set our roof on fire!" The young nun's focus was entirely on her bitten arm and slap, and the old nun had time to reply to him.

"Thankfully, we found it early, Sir, otherwise it would have been a big trouble for this fire to spread, gods forbid......"

Lan Li had already grabbed the young nun's arm at this time, looked down at Raya who was still biting the other party, he raised his hand and patted the other party's head, and then took advantage of her to raise her eyes and look stunned and pulled her away behind her, and said at the same time: "She has no flint and no candles, what did she light it with?" ”

"Who knows where she got the fire, but who else but her?" The young nun replied angrily, clutching her arm, which had been bitten out of two rows of blood, looking very angry.

"Maybe that's not the case, don't you think it's far-fetched to assume that she's an arsonist based on her reputation alone?"

This made the old nun a little speechless, but when the young nun heard this, she immediately retorted: "We have no one here but her to cause trouble." Besides, even if she doesn't, she should fight, she has not stopped since she was a child, if Sir doesn't believe it, just ask someone to ask, you will know what bastard things she has done! ”

"Of course I know her." Lan Li replied, "So I know that she has been deaf and dumb since she was a child, and I think you should also understand this, so you should understand that she may not understand whether some things are good or bad." ”

"After being beaten so many times, how can you not know it?" The nun asked in surprise.

"It's our normal reaction, but she may not even understand what a good person is, what do you think she can understand?"

These words made the two nuns look at each other, and their anger subsided somewhat, but they still didn't have a good face.

"Sir is kind, but it doesn't work for her."

The old nun said: "She is a poor child, not to mention the orphan, and there are physical defects, and we don't always look at her unpleasantly, but we were very good to her at first, and we can all understand when we make mistakes." But you see, after more than ten years, she still has this virtue, and she has not changed at all, and she has not yet been obedient to a wild cat. You should know, good sir, we're not impatient. ”

"It's useless or not, you won't know until you see it." Lan Li said, "Before that, I suggest that you two inform Sister Ida in your mouth, and then she will be able to tell who set the fire. ”

Hearing this, the two nuns shook their heads helplessly, glared at Raya and left.

They didn't seem to think that informing Sister Ida would bring Raya any punishment, and Lan Li had a vague understanding of this, and it was said that the old nun who first adopted Raya had a high status in the Sihuai Sanctuary and was still influential even after her death......

Thinking about it, he withdrew his gaze and looked at the white-robed girl behind him.

This person was shrinking his head at this time, looking like he wanted to leave but was a little embarrassed, and his robe was also covered with dirt.

Because her hair was parting chaotically at this time, Lan Li also saw her true appearance for the first time.

The face is petite, with a slight upturned nose with a little freckles, and the faces on both sides are also present, and the appearance is not very beautiful, but it looks very simple.

The strange thing is that despite being slapped several times, her face is not red and swollen, but still looks intact and slightly dirty, as if she has not washed her face for several days.

"Are you really innocent?" Lan Li asked in a low voice, but it was obvious that the other party would not be able to answer his question, and Lan Li did not hope for this.

Or rather, after raising his hand and sniffing his palm, he already had an answer.

At this time, Lan Li had the unique smell of a grease candle on his hand, which was contaminated from Raya's hand when he had just dragged him behind him.
