Chapter 831: It's sunny, go for a walk
On the first rest day of May, the sun was still shining, but the people on the island were worried.
In the backyard of Diana's house, Charles sat on the edge of the fish pond and watched the water level drop.
"It hasn't rained for more than ten days. Charles said worriedly, "Will there be a shortage of water on the island if this continues?" ”
Diana said with a sad face: "If it doesn't rain again, the lack of water is inevitable." Fortunately, the estuaries of the rivers on the island were closed a few days ago, otherwise there would have been a shortage of water. ”
Charles fed some fish food to the little fish in the fish pond and said, "Let's go out for a walk and hear what rumors are out there." ”
Diana agreed, and went upstairs to change into a dress.
She wore a pale blue dress with a matching narrow-brimmed hat on her head and a veil under her hat that covered her face.
"You're not done!" Diana, who came down from upstairs, took out the dragon soul magic staff and gestured to hit Charles.
Charles, who was dressed in a black robe and wore a hood and couldn't see his face, shook his head and said, "Tut-tut...... I can't imagine that you are the kind of superficial woman who only looks at her appearance. ”
Diana said angrily: "If you wear it like this, you will be beaten." ”
Charles said, "I don't believe it. ”
As a result, before he could get out of the family area of Wisteria Academy, he was beaten by a group of teachers who were resting at home because he was scared of the children on the road.
"I'm not a bad person!" Charles shouted, "I'm a student at Shield Bridge Academy!!"
As a result, he was beaten even worse.
Finally, Charles was released after some education.
At this time, it was close to noon, the restaurant street was destroyed, and there was no place to eat on the island, so Charles and Diana, who had changed into white coats, bought a few steamed buns for lunch in the cafeteria of Wisteria College.
On the way out of the academy, Diana walked slowly with Charles' arm around her, attracting the attention of many bystanders, many of whom were eager to replace one of them.
It's just that the chat between these two people has nothing to do with Fenghua Xueyue.
Charles asked Diana, "Is there any desalination equipment on the island?"
Diana shook her head and replied: "Don't think about it, the desalination system that supports the whole island has never been completed, and there is not so much energy for distillation, let alone a reverse osmosis membrane." ”
Charles looked at the sky helplessly, there was no cloud, and there was no way to artificially rain it, he said: "If you don't want to bring water by air, it's impossible." ”
Diana asked, "Did Sybil's divination say when it would rain?"
Charles shook his head and said, "Sybil said that there have been extremely powerful forces that have interfered with divination recently, and this kind of thing happens occasionally. ”
When Sybil came to work for Charles, he locked himself in his room most of the day, only coming out in the morning when he was out and playing cards in the evening.
At first, Charles thought she was being bullied or unhappy, but later learned that she had her own private job.
Many old customers placed orders for her through the Magic Communication Bureau, and she sent the results back the next day after divination, and received a new list by the way.
And she also has a long-term business, such as helping some nobles divinate the weather in their territory for the next month every month.
It can be said that Sybil is the richest of the machine spirit girls.
However, Charles has never been interested in divination or anything, and only asked Sybil to do weather forecasting and other work, which made her a little dissatisfied, but it didn't matter if there were not many things to do and the salary was not low, it was better than Rogge being taken to boil water.
Diana thought for a moment and asked, "Could it have something to do with those that come out of the sea?"
Charles couldn't judge, so he could only say, "I don't understand." ”
The two guessed all the way to the reason why the rain had stopped, and came to the lake in the middle of the island.
In the past, the clear water of the lake was sparkling and breezy, making it the first place for couples to go on a date and take a walk.
Today, the lake is almost a meter lower than before, and the grass around the lake is exposed with a circle of dirt, ruining the beauty of the past.
There are fewer people on the road around the lake than before, and there are no more people peddling snacks in the past.
The handicraft sellers also have a point, they plan to clear their goods at a low price and then buy food, but it seems that the business is very bad.
Charles suddenly took a fancy to an old man's stall, and he asked Diana to sit on a stone bench by the lake and wait, and then walked to the stall.
The stalls were filled with butterfly brooches of various sizes, the size of a real butterfly, the size of a fingernail, and the bodies of silver of average purity, with wings outlined by fine silver threads, and inlaid with polished lapis lazuli flakes.
It is likely that the cheap lapis lazuli was cut in half from scrap and polished, as the stone chips on the wings of all butterfly brooches are of different shape.
However, they have a peculiarity, that is, the wings are connected to the body by springs, and the old man who sells things moves them from time to time to make the wings fan. These wings make them inexpensive, but still chic.
Charles chose a few butterflies of different sizes, and then left without asking the price, dropping down the two gold Ole coins.
He returned to Diana's side, lightly pressed Diana's hat, and said, "Don't move, I'll put it on you." ”
With that, he pinned the butterflies to the side of Diana's hat in a staggered manner, looking like a flock of butterflies chasing flowers.
This guy also sang in a low voice at the same time, "Dreams are the wings of butterflies, and youth is the paradise of flying", but the memories of the post-80s generation in 98 years can't be obtained.
A "bang" sounded, and as soon as Charles raised his hand, an ice mirror appeared in front of the two of them.
He looked at the ice mirror and swung Diana's head and hat, made the butterflies on the hat move, and then said seriously: "Yes, you can look good as you want." ”
"Uh-huh!" said Diana proudly, "that's for sure." ”
Charles lowered his head with lightning speed and kissed Diana on the cheek through the veil.
"Damn it!" Diana's face turned red, and she stood up and elbowed Charles with a turnaround, the first time she had been attacked in public in broad daylight.
Charles put his arm around Diana's waist from behind and whispered in her ear, "Who made my wife so good-looking." ”
"Nasty!" Diana stomped on the heel of her high heels as she sneered, and ran away.
Charles smiled "hehe" and was ready to catch up and take her hand to continue the walk.
At this moment, a purple-black tentacle suddenly rushed out of the lake, entangled Diana and dragged her into the water when the two did not react.
Her hat fell on the grass on the shore, and the butterflies on it didn't know what was happening, their wings still flapping.
