Episode 9: Fire and Night
"But there's still a room that hasn't been checked—" Xiumei looked at the last room.
"Hey, what are you looking for, there can't be anyone in that room."
"Why?"
"I'm cleaning up today, and I've piled up all the clutter in that room, and now that it's full, I promise you, there's nowhere to stay for a dog!"
"This—" Xiumei raised her eyebrows suspiciously, holding Franka.
"Ahh
"Okay, let's go-" Xiumei helps Franka settle down in the hall, "Do you still need help?" There are a few other locations that I still need to investigate, if it's serious, I'll talk to the head of the regiment and let the others go, I'll accompany you here? ”
"It's okay, it's okay-" Franka hurriedly waved her hand, "You go get busy, I'm fine, just slow down." This little problem is not a problem~"
"Alright then, feel free to contact us with any questions." Xiumei brought a blanket to Franka and went out.
After seeing Xiumei leave, Franka hurriedly rummaged through the drawers, hurriedly took out a pile of gauze, scissors, and water, and hurriedly ran back to the room. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Cole grabbing his hair anxiously, and greeted him in a panic, "What should I do—please—"
Franka took a deep breath, knelt beside Luca, gently rinsed the wound with water, and pressed gauze on the wound, Luka writhed in pain, opened her eyes and saw that Franca was full of fear, her lips moved but she couldn't speak.
"It's okay—" Franka stroked Luca's head gently until Luca had calmed down and stopped struggling. "You come and hold the wound for me, I'll try-"
Cole took the gauze and continued to press on the wound, and Franka activated her healing magic, a glimmer of light over the wound, warm.
"The bleeding must have stopped—" Franka breathed a sigh of relief, and Cole gently lifted the gauze to reveal the red turned flesh, but then a stream of blood spurted out of the wound again, splashing Cole's face.
"What to do, what to do, how to find a way-" Cole's tears kept falling, and his mouth kept repeating what to do.
"It's annoying—" Luca struggled to turn her head, "you're really noisy, don't you know." ”
"Stop talking, don't be forced." Cole inhaled, holding back his breath to let the tears flow more slowly.
Franka activated the healing magic again, and barely stopped the bleeding, and also sat on the ground weakly, "My ability is limited, so I can only help him stop the bleeding temporarily." ”
After observing for some time to make sure that Luca was not in any further danger, Franca had just gotten up to get ready to go out, and Cole stood up as well, "Please don't go-"
"Why? Are you still worried that I will betray you? Franka wiped the sweat from her forehead and smiled bitterly, "If I tried to deal with you, you would have been out of luck." ”
"But why would you help us—" Cole labored as Fuluka lay down on the bed.
"Oh, should I not help you?" Franka picked up the bread scattered on the floor and shook her head, "It's a pity, what a good bread." ”
"Can you give it to me—" Cole asked in a whisper, "Stomach—hungry." ”
"Oh, there's a fresh one, I'll get it for you." Franka opened the door, but Cole followed and picked up the bread in the basket and patted the dust on it.
"It's still edible." Cole sat down next to Luca, tore off the outer layer of bread and ate it, feeding the clean part of it into Luca's mouth.
"How can such a polite and sensible little guy be a thief. They must be mistaken. Franka walked over to the table, poured two glasses of water and handed them to Cole.
"He is him, I am me. He's a good guy, and I'm just a little thief who is scolded by everyone. Luca struggled to raise her head a little too high, "He's not like me. ”
"How so? You are all cute little guys. Franka walked over to the door, "Wait for me." ”
After a while, Franka returned to her room with her harp in her arms and began to play the ditty, "I wasn't the good old man everyone says. ”
"In the beginning, my mom and I were members of the Yumo Gang detachment. Originally, our mission was to negotiate with the crystal capital on the issue of surrounding interests, but that negotiation failed. ”
Franka sat in front of the window, the melodious sound of the piano soothing their hearts, and Luca's painful expression gradually eased.
"But Lord Ranjit was unwilling to fail in the negotiations, and let us set up an ambush outside the negotiation venue. But the information leaked, the ambush failed, we didn't have the face to go back to the Yumo Gang, King Worthley sent the Sin-Eaters to kill us, and many people died in that battle, including my mother - I was very young at the time, it was the Crystal Duke and their negotiation team who discovered me, and it was then that I first met the Crystal Gong - "Franca looked at the night sky "The sky was as bright as gold, the Crystal Duke—"
"He's such a great man."
"For the first time, I knew that there was a completely different way of living in this world,"
"Everyone can work together, the results are shared, just like a huge whole, there is no distinction between you and me, everyone can find their own position and responsibility, it is really a form that cannot be imagined in a dream."
"I'm here to take care of the soldiers' comings and goings, I don't have to worry about money, I don't have to worry about supplies, these are all other partners are responsible for, all I have to do is take care of every tired person, I hope everyone knows, even after the flood of light, you can be happy, you can laugh."
