Chapter 64: Night Talk (I)
After accompanying Xia Liang to study the use of the magic costume, the time was close to twelve o'clock in the night. The three of them parted in the open space, and each set out on his way back to his home.
The delphinium slowly left the clearing, and looked into the distance again. Just as she found a relatively hidden place and was about to take off from there and fly back home, she found that she was accompanied by someone.
It's Lin Xiaolu.
Lin Xiaolu lowered her head and stood next to her, hesitating, wanting to speak and stopping, obviously having something to say.
"What's wrong?" Delphinium asked directly.
Lin Xiaolu raised her eyes to look at her, and lowered her gaze again, "Delphinch." ”
Seeing her call her code name, the delphinium turned around and looked at her earnestly to show that she was listening.
"I heard about it the other day, and that's, it's about my mom."
Lin Xiaolu didn't look at Delphinch, and said in a low voice: "She's actually a magical girl, right?" ”
"Hmm."
"And you used to be teammates."
"Yes."
Delphinium does not hide any of these issues. Because she knew that Lin Xiaolu would have such doubts, all because she showed her that old photo a few days ago.
Whether to tell Lin Xiaolu that "Delphinch" knows Anya is actually something he has seriously considered. After all, there is no doubt that this will make the identity of Delphinium connect with Lin Yun in Lin Xiaolu's cognition.
Although she had no reason to perceive that the two were the same person, the risk increased in the end.
But Delphinch actually knows that it is impossible for him to deceive Lin Xiaolu with two identities for the rest of his life. As she and her daughter spend more and more time together, one day, Lin Xiaolu will realize the fact that "Lin Yun" and "Delphinch" have never appeared together.
She actually doesn't like the feeling of cheating on her daughter, but with the father-daughter relationship before, and even now, the identity of "Delphich" is still necessary.
There are many questions that she can't go into too much detail when she is Lin Yun, but as a delphinch, she doesn't mind saying a little more.
At this moment, seeing that her daughter did have questions about the photo, she felt that she was also obliged to answer it well.
After getting the affirmative answer from Delphia, Lin Xiaolu continued to ask: "So, my mother is ...... What kind of magical girl is it? ”
"Your Mom ......"
What kind of magical girl is Anya? Delphinium couldn't help but start recalling the incident.
From her point of view, strong, upright, and shining...... These many beautiful words can be placed on Anya, because she is indeed an excellent magical girl with a good heart.
However, if you want to choose one of the most prominent qualities, these words are not comprehensive.
There is a more appropriate word to describe Anya.
"Probably, it's optimistic." Age here, Delphinium said softly.
"Optimistic?" Lin Xiaolu was a little puzzled.
It wasn't the answer she expected, after all, the word sounded too ordinary to even describe a magical girl.
"No matter how strong the enemy is, he will not despair, he will not give up in the face of any predicament, and he will not sink no matter how hard he suffers. She's probably that, that's the kind of person. ”
In the face of Lin Xiaolu's doubts, Delfinch's explanation is this: "Although she may not be the strongest, or the most intelligent person, sometimes you will even think that she is a stupid fool." But her emotions can always infect you, make you feel that things have not reached the point of exhaustion, everything is still turning around, she is still there, and hope is still there. ”
This answer made Lin Xiaolu a little fascinated.
But what followed was a sense of inferiority that lingered in my heart:
"In that case, my mother must be a magical girl who is very loved by others, right?"
"As far as the facts go, that's right." Delphinium nodded dryly.
"Are you disappointed now?" Lin Xiaolu asked suddenly.
"Huh?" The change of topic made Delphinium a little uncomfortable.
"I've been thinking about this for the past few days, because you actually came to Fang Ting for my mother's business, right?"
Lin Xiaolu unconsciously pinched the corners of her clothes: "Then, compared to my mother, I should disappoint you." ”
"What do you think?" Her thought made the delphinium frown.
"I don't really want to think about it...... But I also feel that there is no other possibility. ”
Lin Xiaolu's voice was a little dry: "I know what kind of person my mother is, in fact, I can imagine that if she is a magical girl, such an enthusiastic personality must be very popular with everyone." ”
"In contrast, my talent is not good, my personality is very poor, I don't know how to likable like Xia Liang, and I always make embarrassing requests. It's actually quite impatient, right?
"Then, seeing that I am so different from my mother, do you feel that there is a big gap? After all, if it weren't for such a relationship, what merit would I have to keep your gaze on me? ”
The delphinium moved closer to Lin Xiaolu.
She tried to see the expression on her daughter's face when she said these words, but Lin Xiaolu turned her head and stated with some self-sess:
"I heard from that woman named Hong Sihe, Delphinch, you are a patrol envoy, and you are actually a big man in the magic country, right? And it seems that he came to Fangting City just to investigate the disappearance of Moke's senior. In the end, because you found out that I didn't make it, you have to waste energy on me like this every day, which is too unfair to you. ”
There was a little doubt in the cold voice of the delphinium: "You mean, I hope I just leave you alone?" ”
"No, it's not like that!"
Lin Xiaolu hurriedly raised her head and explained in a bit of a panic: "I'm not driving you away, how could I think like this!" I really wish you could stay here, it's just, I'm ...... now."
"You don't think you're worth it now?" Delphinium thought along and helped her summarize.
"But, so to speak." Lin Xiaolu replied a little stumblingly.
"I'm telling you now that it's not like that, and you're going to think I'm just comforting you, right?"
“…… Well. ”
Lin Xiaolu's whispered answer melted into the night sky.
Seeing her answer like this, Delphinium knew that her daughter was indeed lacking in self-identity, and even felt inferior, so she was very depressed.
This low mood is actually obvious these days, after all, Lin Xiaolu is not a child who is good at hiding his emotions.
Delphinium had been eager to find a chance to talk to her, but now it seemed that this was the time she was waiting for, so she took the opportunity to propose:
"So, would you like to come for a walk?"
"Is this time for a walk? What is it to do? Lin Xiaolu was a little dazed.
"Let's talk about something else while we walk.
Delphinium turned sideways, pointed to the road ahead, and motioned for Lin Xiaolu to go along: "For example, now that you know your mother's identity, what other ideas do you have?" ”
