Today's wind is slightly caressing, blowing on the branches and leaves of the Pumi tree, the sound is not loud, but it just wakes up the chirping insects that are sleeping on the branches, and plays the unique music of the fire season, the squeaky sound, as if to put a layer of peace and light veil on the whole Shire town square.

Feeling the sun in the sky moving northward, and the air was a little wetter than before, Jiang Heng couldn't help but yawn, this was a sign that the fire season was about to end and the frost season was about to begin.

"Well, it's another peaceful day. ”

Jiang Heng and Meisha have been in Shire Town for a week, and in this week, in addition to daily patrols and dealing with almost none-equivalent public relations documents, Jiang Heng only has to chat with the neighbors and play games with the children. Well, there's also going to the blacksmith to watch Chugu strike iron, going to the tavern to discuss recipes with Sercia, and going to the grocery store to find Sister Aelita to see if there's anything new,...... It seems to be quite idle.

It's afternoon, and the sun isn't too strong today, giving it a lazy feel. Jiang Heng moved a wooden recliner to the bottom of the Pumi tree, "Alas, take a nap." ”

Listening to the sound of insects and the breeze, Jiang Heng's eyelids gradually became heavy, and before they were completely closed, a thought flashed through his mind, "Am I going to enter the retirement life in advance?"

This was followed by a relaxed, even purring sound.

Not long after he fell asleep, the entrance to the small town of Shire.

Two figures emerged from the forest, their faces covered by green cloaks, but it was not difficult to tell from their size that one was a petite woman and the other was a majestic man.

The two figures stared at the stone pillar at the entrance for a while, the petite figure took off the hood, she had a pure melon seed face, soft long hair, crystal clear big eyes revealed a childishness, and the most remarkable thing was that her acting skills and hair were green. A green color that is close to nature, like the color of a forest.

She stared at the stone pillar curiously, then turned to look at the tall man, "Grandpa Publing, are we really going to ask the Terrans for help?"

"Alas," the tall figure sighed, and took off his hood, revealing a battered male face, with dry skin but strong muscles, and green eyes and hair, "and around here, we have no choice but to do so." ”

With that, he was the first to enter the entrance of the town, "Keep up, Lockty. ”

The girl named Lockty hurriedly followed Pubulin's pace, "Grandpa, wait for me. ”

The grandfather and grandson walked through the bazaar, and since it was already afternoon, there were not many people, but some people still noticed the two of them.

"Aren't those the Greenwoods who live nearby?" "How did the Inhumans come to our house?" "Shall we go tell Lottie about them......?

But occasionally there is also a sharp-eyed old man, "That person seems to be the patriarch of the Green Forest people." "If I'm not mistaken, he seems to have been here before. ”......

Feeling the discussion on both sides of the road, Publin sighed, and the young and active Lockty kept scanning the surroundings with curious eyes, "Grandpa Publing, those Terrans seem to have been talking about us. ”

Publin tilted his head and bowed his head to his young granddaughter, "Actually, the Terrans here are still very friendly. ”

He paused slightly, and said in a voice that could only be heard by himself, "At least here, the Inhumans will not be subjected to unwarranted discrimination and persecution. ”

The grandfather and grandson walked to the Shire Town Security Office in the eyes of everyone in the town.

Walking to the front of the police station, looking at the open door, Pu Bulin's heart had complicated thoughts, but he still calmly said to his little granddaughter, "Lockty, I'll go find someone to talk about something first, you just wait here for a while, don't run around, you know?"

"Okay, grandpa, you go slowly. ”

After watching Publin enter the gate of the police station, Lockty began to look around idly, and the first thing that attracted him was the large Pumi tree next to the police station.

"Wow, this tree is so big, you can grow so big in the territory of the human race, you are amazing. Lockty approached the tree and touched the trunk with his hand, exclaiming.

"Snorr, snorr......" At this time, Lockty heard a discordant sound, and followed the sound.

So I found Jiang Heng who was taking a nap under the other side of the Pumi tree.

"It's strange that this person has wasted such a good time sleeping," Locke thought to himself, reaching out and stabbing Jiang Heng in the face. "Hey, wake up, wake up. ”

Jiang Heng pushed away Luo Ti's fingers with his hand in a daze, "Don't make trouble, Meisha, I, I still want to sleep for a while." ”

Jiang Heng's shallow consciousness: "The only ones who will stab me with their fingers are Mesha and Lottie, if it is Lottie, it must be an over-the-shoulder fall to wake herself up, so it can only be Mesha." As soon as I finished thinking about this, I turned over, and my shallow consciousness turned into deep sleep.

"Hmph, you dare to ignore me. Nocti was angry, and suddenly his eyes rolled, and then he thought of something, and showed a smile.

The kind of smile that Erha showed when he finished dismantling the room.

Inside the lobby of the police station.

Aunt Lorna placed two glasses of blackberry juice in front of Lottie and Publin. "Thank you. Publin thanked Aunt Rhona.

Aunt Lorna smiled kindly and left.

Lottie tried to pretend to be serious, but her fingers and calves kept shaking, "Patriarch Publin, welcome to the Shire Sheriff's Office, is there anything I can do to help you?"

Noticing Lottie's nervous appearance, Publin asked puzzledly, "Miss Lottie, it's not the first time we've met, why are you so reserved?"

"I'm not nervous? I'm not nervous. Really!" Lottie quickly denied it. "Well, it's too cold, I'm shivering to get warmer. ”

Nonsense, how can you not be nervous, when I saw you before, it was just to greet you at the edge of your territory, but now you are coming to see me as a Terran sheriff as the head of a clan, at least it is a favor, at most it can be a diplomatic issue. How could it not be nervous!

"Well, well, I'll explain my intentions first. Publin was not entangled in today's weather and Lottie's face, and his expression became serious, "In our territory of the Green Forest people, something has happened recently, and I want to ask the sheriff of your human race for help." ”

"You're asking us to issue you a visa, good immigration?" asked Lottie suddenly.

"It's not. Pubulin was expressionless.

"Then you want to trade with the Terrans and get a business license?" Lottie thought differently.

"Not really. Publin remained expressionless.

"Is that ......" Lottie's train of thought continued to deviate.

"A lot of people in our clan have gone missing lately!" Publin said suddenly, interrupting Lottie's thoughts, an expression of anger and sadness on his face.

Lottie was shocked at first when she heard the reason why Publin came to find her, but then quickly calmed down and said in a slightly apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, Patriarch Publing, we can't help you. ”

"Why?" seemed to have expected this answer, and Pubrin didn't look surprised. "Diplomacy?"

"That's right, it's a matter of diplomacy. Lottie flipped through the rules she had learned in school in her head, "You should know why our Rhine Empire has been able to gain a foothold on this continent. ”

"While it is true that the Rhine Empire was the first human power to develop on this continent, the main reason for being the only nation to settle on this continent is not the order of priority, but the handling of diplomacy. ”

"Non-interference in the internal affairs of any foreign country is the most basic regulation of our country's foreign affairs. Disappearances are a matter of dispute in your own territory, so we're sorry, but we can't help you with your own affairs. "I deeply deplore what happened to you, but we can't break this basic principle, so we can't help it, so please go back." ”

When Publin heard Lottie's words, he suddenly laughed, "You have a serious personality when you encounter serious things, to be honest, I appreciate it." In particular, I am very touched that you have been able to include such a small alien race as our Green Forest people as a national-level diplomatic process. ”

Speaking of this, Pu Bulin's expression revealed the peculiar spiciness, "Then if I say that this matter is related to your human race, will you care?"

Lottie stood up suddenly, slapped the table with her palm, "What......" "Ahhh

Lottie's shocked expression was not yet in place, and she was halfway through her mouth when she was interrupted by a scream coming from outside the door.

The two looked at the door.

The next second, I saw a "monster" rushing in......

Time goes back to three minutes ago.

Jiang Heng felt as if there were insects crawling on his face, itchy and crispy, and like the feeling of raindrops on his face, cold and cold.

"Is it raining?" he opened his sleepy eyes, and saw the face of a smiling girl appear in front of him. "Hey, you're awake. ”

Should it be said that it was a large nerve strip, or a brain circuit blockage, or it could be nerve terminal necrosis, Jiang Heng was not surprised, "Well, the face is delicate, it's quite cute, it should be only sixteen, I haven't seen it, it should be an outsider, a tourist? I think I remember that there was a tribe of Greenwoods around Shire, and this girl was a Greenwood. The lifespan of a Green Forest Man is about ...... of a human."

Thinking about the situation in front of him as soon as he opened his eyes was a habit that Jiang Heng had always had a unique habit, because in this way, he would not be disturbed by the other side of the dream, although the dream was no longer done, but the habit had been retained.

"Hmph! It's not funny, I thought you'd be startled all of a sudden. Luo Ti stood up, patted his clothes, and looked at Jiang Heng with an unhappy expression.

Jiang Heng just smiled, the little girl wanted to scare him, it was still early, and then she also stood up, "Hello, I'm Jiang Heng, the sheriff of Shire Town, is there anything I can do to help you?"

Looking at Jiang Heng's face, Luo Ti suddenly showed a smile again, and handed Jiang Heng a small object, which was a round, palm-sized thing, "My mirror is broken, it is something that my grandfather brought back to me from your human race, I am a baby, can you help me repair it?"

Jiang Heng touched the back of his head and took the mirror, "It's useless for you to ask me to help you, I can't fix it, not to mention that the broken mirror can't be reunited." ”

He subconsciously stared at the mirror, "Isn't this broken......?

Jiang Heng was suddenly speechless and speechless...... I was speechless for a long time.

"Ahhh

Back to the present.

Jiang Heng rushed into the kitchen like a gust of wind.

Lottie and Publin looked at each other in amazement. Lottie asked, "What was that just now?" "I don't know, I didn't see it clearly, it looks like a new breed of demonic beast, you cultivated it?"

At this time, Lockty stood in the doorway with a grin, "That person is really funny, I have never seen such a violent reaction in the clan." ”

When Pu Bulin heard his granddaughter say this, he broke out in a cold sweat, his fingers almost cramped, and he exclaimed in his heart: "It's not good, this little girl is in trouble again." ”

Jiang Heng next to the sink in the kitchen, his heart was like a large group of alpacas running over the green grassland, fortunately, he had never had the habit of scolding, well, to be precise, it was the habit of swearing, otherwise it is estimated that this chapter would not pass the trial.

To be honest, when he looked at the mirror just now, he was shocked, and he thought that this mirror was cursed, and an avatar was sealed inside...... Whose child is so lacking in virtue, don't you know that blackberry juice is difficult to wash when it is dry?

"Heh, heh, I'm sorry, young master, but, haha, your face is so funny. Meisha held back a smile while flushing Jiang Heng's face with water. Jiang Heng had a black line in his heart.

When Jiang Heng finished washing his face, as soon as he returned to the hall, a shadow rushed in front of him and bent down: "I'm sorry, big brother sheriff, I was wrong, please forgive me for the sake of being a child!"

This isn't Locky, who else could it be?

Jiang Heng just wanted to talk about the matter, when an old man next to him came over and also bent down, "Your Excellency Jiang Heng, hello, I am Pubulin, the patriarch of the Green Forest people, and this is my granddaughter, named Lokti." I apologize for my granddaughter's rude behavior towards you, but please forgive her, she is still young. ”

Well, the other party's grandfather has apologized, what else can he say. "Actually, I'm still a very talkative person, a child, it's more naughty, I can understand, but as an elder, you have to pay more attention. Jiang Heng waved his hand.

"Yes, Your Excellency said so. Pubulino snapped.

"I said what are you doing!" came a roar in his ears, "Patriarch Pubulin has apologized, what are you still saying to others what are you doing, you have to inch in, right! Others are the head of a clan, according to status, we should respect, according to seniority, others are our grandparents, we should respect even more." And you can't treat children a little more, and make a fuss about such a trivial matter, are you still like a man? Are you still like a sheriff?"

"I, I...... Well, I'm wrong, I'm guilty, I'm wrong. "Jiang Heng is bitter in his heart, he is obviously the victim, and he is like a victim when he tells you. You say that someone else is a child, how old am I than her, how much older are you, how much older am me? Don't you have points in your heart?

It's just that in the more than a week spent together, Jiang Heng has initially mastered the method that can calm Lottie's anger, as long as there is any dispute and admits that she was wrong, her anger will basically disappear by half.

This method is inspired by the father, thanks to the father, even if he is not by his side, the usual words and deeds also benefit the child a lot.

It's just that when Jiang Heng admitted his mistake, he didn't notice the successful smile on Lottie's face.

"Since you know that you are wrong, you must make up for your mistakes, and there is a case here, and it will be handed over to you. ”......
