Chapter 62: Exploring the Garden
The garden is still as dilapidated as the last time Biancom arrived, but due to the time of day, the garden now looks less gloomy than before, just like an ordinary garden that has not been tended to for a long time.
The gravel-strewn road on the hillside still bears traces of that day, with weeds crushed and heavy weights weighing down. If you look closely, you can see a little dried blood.
Kylde looked left and right at the scene, and Wokan put his arm on Kyrd's shoulder with a big grin.
"We've got rid of that dead wolf." "So don't worry about scaring the lambs, it's not a good thing to keep here." ”
Kayildelli shook off Wokan's arm, and the latter shrugged his shoulders and unconcerned to return himself to Lanorda's side, clinging to her so hard that he couldn't get rid of her.
Although this pair of tricks was eye-catching, it did not arouse Kild's interest in the slightest. He looked at Bianko beside him with a hint of concern in his eyes, but he still seemed to be overly concerned. The girl didn't show a reluctant look at all at all, she was even looking at her surroundings curiously, as if it wasn't her who was attacked here that day, and the events of that day didn't leave any shadow on her?
"What's wrong?" Kyalde's long gaze was finally spotted by Bianco, "Did I do something wrong?" ”
There were always slight deviations in the girl's language, and Kyld felt like he was getting used to it.
"What you should be asking is, 'Did you do something wrong?' Or, 'Did you do something wrong?' ’…… No, that's not the point. Kyild shook his head, leaving her grammar corrections behind, "Are you okay?" ”
Biancole looked at him quizzically and shook her head in bewilderment.
"I'm fine." She said crisply, "Why do you ask?" ”
Kyild hesitated for a moment, but asked the question anyway.
“…… You were injured here before, aren't you afraid? ”
Bianko blinked, her clear dark eyes showing no emotions such as fear or resistance, in fact, the eyes in front of her were still as full of dependence and trust as before.
"Why be afraid?" She threw the question back, "Young Master is here." ”
The girl's simple words made Kyild unable to make any sound for a while. It was as if something was blocking his throat, making it extremely difficult for him to even open his mouth.
He may never truly understand why Bianko placed such a strong, unshakable trust in him. He hadn't experienced the life of being confined to a tiny room for 18 years since birth, so he didn't know what was going on in her mind when she came into contact with the outside world, and what was the self that brought her to the outside world was to her.
But it is precisely because the girl unreservedly gives her trust that he has no way to let himself live up to her emotions.
However, if it weren't for the importance of her, he wouldn't care if he would live up to her purity; But if it weren't for her simple and persistent soul, he wouldn't like her.
It's a cycle that doesn't have the source.
"Young Master? Rano and Rossi are gone. ”
Kylde came back to his senses, grasped the small white hand that was waving in front of his eyes, and then pulled her to follow in the footsteps of the four companions.
They didn't have long to reach the entrance of the park. Its crumbling walls should have been covered in twisted vines, but now its surface was clean except for the cracks in the walls.
"Those things are just too much of an eyesore." Wokan shrugged, "And at night, those snakes and vines are mixed together, and it looks disgusting, I was going to burn them with a fire." ”
"But that would turn into a very bad fire, and it might go into the town, and it might alarm some people who shouldn't be alarmed." "And I don't think the garden is strong enough to survive a fire, so I stopped Vokan." ”
"A wise choice." "I now wonder how Walkan managed to live to this age, when he didn't die for lack of common sense, and he wasn't murdered for doing something stupid," said Kyildhi in a scytic tone. ”
"Oh, Kaye, you're breaking my heart so much." Wokan covered his face and cried onto Lanoda's shoulder, "I've done a lot of hard work for your little lamb. ”
"First of all, you only want to do it for the sake of your own willfulness; Secondly, she doesn't need you to worry about it. ”
Kirde's cold speech lifted Wokan's spirits again, and even though Lanorda covered his mouth, he still tried to make something that would never please him.
"It's ten o'clock in the morning." Letty intervened in the conversation at the right time, "According to the plan of the garden I drew earlier, this garden is not very large, so let's divide it into three groups to check it out. While the location of that mechanism should be the most useful area, the rest of the puzzle should not be left unattended. ”
Kyild nodded, he looked at the floor plan in his hand, and simply pulled Bianko to the southwest corner.
"It's really tight." Having regained his freedom of speech, Walkan sighed, "He chose the farthest position from the mechanism. ”
"That's a good thing, too." Letty smiled and said, "You don't want him to be so depressed all the time because of Giado's relationship, do you?" ”
"Of course not." Wokan raised his hands innocently, "I'm happy for him, the little lamb is not like that woman, the little lamb will not let Kui be harmed." ”
Wokan's words, though unintentional, drew the glares of his lover.
"What? Can Biya be injured? ”
"No, no, no, of course not." Wokan quickly salvage his fault, "I just want to say that the little lamb is so much better than Giado. ”
Lanoda snorted heavily, shook her head and took a step in a southeasterly direction, Wokan staggering after her, with a petty flattering look. Letty shook her head and gave Rosette a wry smile of helplessness.
"Speaking of Kui, he himself chose a comfortable area."
Rosette chuckled and grabbed his arm and leaned her head against his upper arm.
"We can take turns." The usually gentle woman winked playfully, "Everyone has to walk through every area, and this is also to avoid missing something because everyone pays attention differently, isn't it?" ”
Leti chuckled lowly and led Rosette to the rest of the northeast.
Kayld didn't stop until he reached the very edge, and he couldn't help but frown as he looked at his surroundings. Wokan and Letty had cleaned up the weeds and rubbish when they visited the garden before, but they hadn't completely removed it. It's still so dirty that it's hard to move around.
He glanced back at Bianko, because he was going out to explore today, so he let the girl wear a short-sleeved top and shorts that did not hinder her movement, but in this environment, he was afraid that her exposed skin would be cut.
"You stay over there." "Don't go deep in the grass," said Kryd succinctly. ”
"Oh."
Biancole stood beside the pile of stones, looking around curiously, but after a moment she lost interest in the plants next to her, and instead stared at Kyald's half-obscured figure in the grass.
"Young Master." The girl cried out loudly, "What are we looking for?" ”
Kyild quickly came out of the grass and patted the dust with his hands with some impatience.
"Something anomalous - even though I say so, you don't know what counts as an anomaly." Kyild sighed, "Call me if something doesn't make you feel right...... No, you still don't have to act on your own, and when I finish looking over there, I'll be with you. ”
Biancole nodded obediently, her eyes fixed on Kyird's face, but the latter did not notice, turned back and continued to crouch down and continue his work.
The girl yawned idly, the young master did not allow her to act on her own, so it was better for her to stay where she was and not walk around. She didn't want to lose the young master's rare attitude towards her because of her willfulness.
Biancole felt a little tired after standing for a while, the cycle of injuries and recuperation some time ago made her not exercise for a long time, and today's long journey was long, and she walked uphill, which made her already little physical strength plummeted to almost nothing.
She sat down on the stone next to her, which was a little short, but it was better than sitting on the ground. The young master taught her that she should not squat casually outside, nor should she sit on the ground, that is not "ladylike" enough.
Although she still didn't quite understand what a "lady" was, since the young master made her a "lady", then she should do it.
Biancole was stunned for a moment, then looked in the direction of Kyird. There was really nothing interesting in this garden to pass the time, so she had to watch him all the time.
As soon as she saw Kyalde, she felt a sense of peace and comfort in her heart, which she liked very much.
When the sun became hotter than when it first came, Kryd left the grass. His sleeves were rolled up high, his clothes and pants were covered with mud, and as he approached, Bianko could see that his arms and face were covered in sweat.
"It's finally a bit of a gain, otherwise I'd be irritable." Kyild muttered, "What the hell, looking for something in this weather......"
He pulled out a notebook and a pen from the backpack that Biancole had placed aside, scratched them a few times, and tossed them back into his bag. He sat down on a stone a little distance from Bianco, leaned back slightly, and supported his upper body with his arms behind him, slowly regaining his exhausted patience and strength.
The sunlight was half blocked by a shadow in his sight, and he lazily tilted his head to the side, and the black-haired girl came up to his side, wiping the sweat from his head with a soft tissue.
"Silly girl, you don't smell of sweat." His tone sounded indistinguishable whether he was complaining or not, "I'm deliberately staying away from you." ”
"I'm not stupid." Bianko did not tire of retorting the title again, "Does it smell?" Why? ”
The girl's question went unanswered, she was still wiping Kryd's cheek, and Kyld felt her heavy back and forth on the right side of his cheek, and he suspected that if the girl had not had the strength to do so, his face would have been scratched.
"What are you doing?"
"There's dirt." Bianko said seriously, "I had it just now, but the young master walked too fast, and I didn't have time to say it yet." ”
Bianko pulled out a small box that Rosette had prepared before the trip, which contained an ice pack. She couldn't quite understand why the ice pack wouldn't melt into water like the one in Nobile's kitchen, but it didn't stop her from remembering that it could be used to remove heat.
Kylde enjoyed the maiden's service so comfortably that he didn't even bother to say a word.
