At two o'clock in the morning, at the end of the plain, I finally saw a towering silver city wall, reflecting the light in the moonlight, Xing Han finally cheered up, and the first city he saw in dozens of hours!

Approaching the city walls, Xinghan found that the city of Nartan was built on a small hill, and the road into the city was mostly uphill, until it passed through the city gate.

It was late at night, there was no one on the street, and the street lights on both sides were very bright, illuminating the street as if it were daytime.

"What?it's full?How is it possible, isn't it still open outside?" As soon as Lilicia heard the store manager say that there was no room, she immediately ran out of the store and brought in the sign that said it was open.

The manager lifted his glasses and said, "Oh, do you see the restaurant next door? I also opened that restaurant, and it's open now, to be honest, I really don't have any rooms here." ”

"Are you hungry?" Xinghan glanced at the brightly lit restaurant, where there was only a drunken man holding a wine barrel and a guy in a hoodie, as if he didn't want others to see him, he deliberately sat under a broken light bulb, and it was difficult to see his face from the flickering light.

Evonelo nodded and said, "I'm hungry......"

"Let's go here and take a rest first, manager, okay?" asked Bing Tong as she pushed open the door that connected to the restaurant.

The manager did not object, and followed them to the restaurant: "As long as you pay, it is fine, my things here are not cheap, but with the presence of Judrieland nobles, it should not be a problem." ”

Xing Han took the menu, and the price of each dish on it was not less than a thousand, this third class is really a hell for the poor!

simply ordered a supper, and embarrassedly spent nearly 10,000 martles on Merlo, but it was only a drop in the bucket for their family's economic strength, and her daily pocket money was enough to live here for a week.

After eating and drinking, Xinghan glanced at the time, it was already three o'clock in the morning, but why did this store stay open for so long?

"Manager, isn't your restaurant closed at night?"

"Oh, don't let him hear this, he'll be upset, he's angry that my little shop won't be safe. The store manager pulled Xinghan and said with his mouth covered.

Xing Han turned around curiously and looked at the remaining two people, the drunkard had money to spend here, and it seemed that he was indeed a young master of a noble family: "Do you have to give him a lot of wine like this every day?

"Hah, you misunderstood this little brother, I didn't mean him, he was just a regular customer in our store. The shopkeeper said and pointed to the man sitting in the corner, his hat covering his entire face.

"Who is he?" Xinghan asked.

The store manager said slowly: "You are from somewhere else, right? I don't know that he is also normal, he is the only son of the Guril family, the Guril family has been in charge of this place for centuries, the old Guril died last year, and he took the place of Guril XVII." ”

"Then why are you here?" Hitomi interjected.

"I didn't ask him, because he came here at this time of day and no one knew what he was thinking, and he didn't dare to ask. Don't provoke him, because he has a bad temper. The manager glanced cautiously at Guril XVII and hurried into the kitchen.

Xing Han glanced at Merlo in disbelief, she seemed to know what she wanted to ask, and said, "That's true, Guril XVI died last winter, and I heard that the new successor is the son of the old Gallier. ”

"Xinghan, don't worry about it, it's not good to get into new trouble. We rest here for a while and go to the next city at dawn. Elucci suggested the same.

Xing Han glanced back at the guy in the blue hoodie with his back to him, he sat there motionless, his chin was supported in his right hand, and the red wine in the glass was shaking in his left hand, as if he had never intended to drink it.

"Mr. Xinghan, the Gullir nobility is a branch of the royal family, and Judriland is almost in the same position. Seeing that Xinghan still hadn't completely dispelled his interest, Merlo told him the true face of the nobles of Gurir, so as to dispel his thoughts.

"Royal, do you mean that guy also has royal blood?"

"Of course, it's not pure, but it's very rare. Merlo looked at the girls who were falling asleep on the table, and she yawned herself, after all, she hadn't had a good rest since last night, "Ha~ Isn't Mr. Xinghan going to rest? There are still two hours before the sunrise." ”

"What can you rest for two hours, if you're sleepy, go to sleep first." "The temperature in this restaurant is comfortable, and the manager is sleepy in the room on the other side, lying on the chair and sleepy.

Merlo slowly fell asleep, and after about ten minutes, Hoshihan suddenly stood up and walked towards the man wearing the hat.

"It seems that the manager's warning has no effect, and outsiders are still so bold. I didn't expect a boy's voice to suddenly come from the corner, but it sounded very gentle, even if the tone was slightly sharp, it didn't make people feel uncomfortable at all, it was like a girl.

"It's nothing, it's just interested, hey, don't you feel lonely here alone?" Xing Han walked to the front of the boy and sat down, the flickering light still making him unable to see the man's face.

"Loneliness? What does that feel like?"

"It's just living alone, like you are now. Xing Han said slowly.

"Well, if that's the loneliness you just said, I really don't feel it. What do you do when you feel lonely?" the boy asked.

"Well~ I'm chatting with those guys, but it's a pity that they're all asleep now. ”

The boy was silent for a long time before he said, "That's why you came to talk to me?"

"Hey, I didn't come here after hearing about you, don't get me wrong. ”

"Hmph, you guy is still a little interesting, forget it, I should go back in two hours anyway, talk to me for a while. The boy took a sip of the red wine in his glass and coughed twice as if he had choked.

Xing Han seemed to see the clue and asked, "Don't you know how to drink?"

"To ...... I want you to take care of it!" the boy was so tough that he drank all the wine, "Ahem, ahem!"

"Hey, don't be reckless, you'll get dizzy if you drink too much. ”

The boy seemed embarrassed and said nervously, "You...... Why didn't you say it earlier. ”

"I thought you knew. ”

"Water ......" the boy stood up suddenly, ran to the water dispenser, picked up a full glass of water, and drank it, "Whew-it's much more comfortable." ”

"By the way, I heard the store manager say that you are the ruler of the Guril nobility, and there are few who are so young. ”

The boy paused, stood by the water cooler and did not come back, and after about a minute, he said slowly: "The others say the same, but I have no intention of being the ruler of the nobility......

"You're an only child, and there's no one to take your place but you, right?"

"You won't understand ......"

"It's really strange, I don't understand what to say~" Xing Han spread his hands disapplausively.

"You won't understand it!" the boy suddenly shouted loudly, startling Xing Han, "Grandpa, he died suddenly, and he didn't even leave a suicide note, and he was held to this position by other people in the nobles, do you think I volunteered?!"

"Hey...... Don't you, calling like this in the middle of the night will attract the police......" Xing Han thought for a while, something was wrong, and said, "Do you have a police here?"

"What policeman?" the boy asked, stopping crying.

Xing Han was suddenly stunned in his seat, this was definitely the most delicate-looking boy he had ever seen, with fair skin and oversized eyes, and a very small nose and mouth, he was simply a rare child in the world!

"Forget it, forgive you, my name is Guriel?? Three thousand leaves?? Canzipera. The boy wiped his tears and held out his hand in a friendly manner.

"Oh...... Oh. Xing Han subconsciously held Sanchiba's hand, and the little hand with fine skin and tender flesh actually felt a sense of déjà vu when he held it!"Sanchiba? What a strange name......"

"Because the year I was born, the snow here was very thick, and there were many leaf-like shapes printed on the top of the snow, and my father patiently counted them, and there were exactly 3,000 such imprints. Sanchiba said with a smile.

"Three thousand, how long does that last?"

"I don't know, grandpa said that my father counted about a day and a night. However, my father became very ill and died less than a year later, so I have almost no memory of him in my memory. "Sanchiba barely had much emotion when he mentioned his father's death, and probably really had little impression of him.

In the morning, around half past five, the sun shone into the dining room, and Merlo seemed to feel the light, and reached out to find Xinghan beside her. I touched it for a long time, but it was just a cold tabletop, and nothing was touched.

Curious, Merlo opened her eyes and slowly looked around, and finally found him in the corner where the lights were shining: "Mr. Xinghan...... What are you doing......"

"Oh, did we get you arguing? Sorry, by the way, this guy doesn't look that scary, let me introduce you. Xinghan stood up and pulled the half-asleep Mero towards Sanchiba.

"Judriland? Oh, I remember, my grandfather told me that this nobleman seems to have a high status in Errilanka. Michiba greeted Mei Luo in a friendly manner, and at this moment, the girls who were sleeping next to her also woke up.

Everyone discussed and prepared to leave, and Sanchiba also planned to go home.

"It's nice to meet you, Sanchiba, see you again when you get a chance. Xinghan beckoned to Sanchiba and turned to walk to the stable.

"Miss Sanchiba, it's a little bad to deceive others when we meet for the first time?" said Merlo, who was standing next to Sanchiba, suddenly.

"Huh?" Sanchiba looked at Mero with some puzzlement, she didn't seem to realize anything, "Why did Miss Merlo say that?"

Mei Luo sighed, and Sanchiba really didn't seem to see Xinghan's abnormality: "Mr. Xinghan seems to have always thought that you were a boy." ”

"What?"

"Hey, Merlo, let's go!" Xinghan had already led the horse out of the stable, and turned back to greet Merlo.

"Well, here we are. ”

Watching Mei Luo run towards the team, Sanchiba finally took off the hat he had been wearing, and for a while her long snow-white hair danced in the wind, and everyone who watched it was a little surprised.

"Mr. Xinghan, I ......"

"Sanchiba, you...... What are you doing with that long hair for a boy? Before Sanchiba could explain, Xinghan had already waved his horse and drove into the distance
