Chapter 42: The City That Never Sleeps (2)
"So where are we going tonight?" Kicked out of the police station, Ai Lian and Ai Yue, who were living on the streets, looked at each other.
"How much money do you have on you?" asked Elean.
Ai Yue played with the ends of her hair and said, "Isn't all the money with you?"
"Is it all here? Yes?" Ai Lian took out his pocket, barely took out a few coins from the innermost part of his pocket, and said, "Impossible! Ai Yue, quickly take out the money!"
"Not really!"
"Don't you force me to do it myself!?"
"Don't pull my clothes! I really don't have any money! Don't pull it, it's going to break if you pull it again." Ai Yue shouted loudly while tugging at her clothes.
Just when the two were "playing", a crisp voice sounded.
"Well, if you don't mind, you can stay at my house for one night. ”
Ai Lian and Ai Yue turned their heads and looked at the owner of the voice.
The short cherry pink hair with slightly curly hair casually looks full of energy, and the shallow bangs cover the forehead. A pair of purple eyes are as clear as crystal, and under the small and delicate nose are thin pale pink lips that are slightly pursed.
A heroic police uniform echoes its short hair, and her complexion is as white and bright as the snow at the beginning of winter, but what doesn't match the police uniform is the delicate baby face, but this not only does not reduce the charm of the girl, but adds a little cuteness.
This is the policewoman who just interrogated Ai Yue, I didn't expect that there was such a cute girl in the group of uncles in the police station.
Well, maybe that's what it's like to be a sheep in a wolf pack.
Seeing that Ai Lian didn't answer, the girl asked in a low voice again: "That, if you don't mind, you can go to my house... ”
Before the girl could finish speaking, Ai Yue interrupted her with a "wow", and then hugged the policewoman.
Ai Yue is not tall, only to the position of Ai Lian's chest.
And although the cute policewoman in front of her has a baby face, she is much taller than Ai Yue.
Sure enough, people are not to be seen.
The three of them came to a two-story building attached to the police station, watched the policewoman skillfully open the door, and then said softly: "I'm back!"
However, the girl's words were not answered. This made Elian a little curious.
If there is no one at home, there is no need to say such a word. If there is someone in the family, then why not answer?
Is it not good to have a bad relationship with your family?
However, Ai Lian didn't ask anything more, but followed the girl into the small building.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Naya, and I'm a patrol officer in the town, but I've only been in office for a few days, so I'm not familiar with a lot of work. The girl with short pink hair, that is, Naya, stuck out her tongue and said playfully.
Although she is tall, she is still just an ordinary girl.
"My name is Ai Lian, this is Ai Yue, we are ordinary travelers. Elian briefly introduced the two.
"Eh-Traveler, where are you going?" asked Naya curiously, probably for the first time in her more than ten years of life that she had seen someone outside the town.
"Well, the plan is to go to the Charald Snow Mountain first, and then I don't know. Eren replied honestly that it wasn't something to hide.
Hearing Eren's words, Naya was startled, and she exclaimed, "Are you going to Charal? It's very dangerous! I heard that there are monsters sealed inside!"
Speaking of this, Naya seemed to remember something, and then whispered: "I heard that a lot of ominous things have run out of the Charald Snow Mountain recently, it's so scary!"
"Ominous thing? what is that?" Ai Yue was a little curious.
Hearing Ai Yue's words, Naya lowered her head in surprise and did not speak.
Seeing that Naya didn't answer, Ai Yue was about to speak again.
Ai Lian hurriedly interrupted Ai Yue's question, after all, the other party didn't seem to want to answer, and it was not good to keep asking.
"By the way, you haven't had dinner yet, have you? How about eating together if you don't mind? Naya lifted her spirits a little and changed the subject.
"Oh yes! Naya is the best! Eat~Eat~" Sure enough, Ai Yue was now completely attracted by the word "eat".
After an ordinary but sumptuous dinner, Eileen took the initiative to clean the bowl as a thank you gift for accommodation and dinner, and as for the two girls, they were pushed to the bathroom by Eileen and asked them to take a shower first.
After washing the dishes, Elian lay down on the sofa relaxedly, enjoying a rare leisure time.
The town may be a little weird, but for Allen, it's just a small episode in the middle of a journey.
The most important thing at the moment is how to enter the Charald Snow Mountain, and from Naya's words just now, Ai Lian knows some news about the Charal Snow Mountain.
For example, there are monsters sealed inside.
"Seal~" Ai Lian sighed, if you want to enter the snow mountain, you must break through that seal, after all, the seal is not the kind of one-way thing that can only enter and not exit, generally speaking, the seal is two-way.
But if the seal is broken by Elian, then the monsters in the Charal Snow Mountain will inevitably rush out and wreak havoc. Eren didn't believe that the monsters were sealed because they were too kind.
But if the seal is not broken, then there is no other way to enter the snowy mountain, and when he thinks of this, Ai Lian has a little headache.
Of course, for him as a traveler, it didn't matter if the seal was broken, after all, he was just a passing visitor to the town.
But for this town, for Naya, it is undoubtedly a catastrophe.
After all, he had just eaten someone else's dinner, and Elian still boasted that he couldn't do such a thing.
"That's it! there will be a way!" Eren turned over slightly on the couch, and this was his bed tonight.
It's not as good as a hotel bed, but it's better than a meadow in the wild.
For some reason, although it was already April, the town was noticeably colder.
Maybe it's because of the proximity to the snowy mountains, but Elian didn't think much about it.
In this way, in front of the faintly burning stove, Elian slowly fell asleep.
