As early as more than a month ago, during the tracking oolong incident in the shopping mall, Xia Liang found some clues by dialing Lin Yun's "Delphinch's mobile phone".

At that time, in order to avoid embarrassment and cover up the truth, Lin Yun gave the explanation that "she knew Delphinch, and she left her mobile phone at her home".

There are actually many contradictions behind such statements, but at that time, he had a very short time to think, and under the urgency of the situation, he could not give a better explanation.

And now, when Xia Liang used almost the same method again and asked this sentence, Delphinium knew that there was no room for explanation.

Even if she uses the same words to deceive, saying "Lin Yun left her mobile phone at Delfinch's house", she can't explain the logic behind this incident: why did she bring someone else's mobile phone?

If you want to fulfill a lie, you need to use more lies to make up for the omission; If you want to hide something, you will deform your behavior.

Delphinium is not a professional orator or liar, and she does not want to devote too much energy to making up lies endlessly. So, she narrowed her eyes and sighed slowly:

"It's too willful to chase these things."

She chose to abandon the argument altogether.

"Right for what?"

Xia Liang tilted his head with his mobile phone, and said a little innocently: "I don't know what you're talking about, junior?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, her head was hit by a furious tremor from the delphinium.

"It hurts!" Xia Liang immediately covered his head.

"I've already guessed what else to pretend?"

Delphinium withdrew her hand a little helplessly, and looked at Xia Liang with drooping eyelids: "You kid, when did you start noticing?" ”

"Little senior, are you admitting this?" Xia Liang pressed his head and said in surprise.

"It's all on this, why don't you admit it?" Taking a few steps back, the delphinium leaned against the railing of the balcony, "It's a bit of a difficult thing to talk about, but I'm not going to play tricks on children. ”

"Hey, that's good." Letting go of the hand covering his head, Xia Liang smiled and took two steps forward, lowered his voice again, and asked in Delfinch's ear: "So, the 'Uncle Lin' I saw is really the same person as the little senior?" ”

Delphinium did not reply.

She just looked at Xia Liang expressionlessly, and then twisted her head towards the balcony door.

The meaning of this action is also obvious: let Xia Liang close the door before speaking, so as not to be heard by Lin Xiaolu in the room.

Xia Liang quickly understood, she turned around, ran very actively to close the balcony door, and then looked at the delphinium again with curious and inquisitive eyes.

“…… Let's talk about how you found out. The delphinium lowered her gaze.

"Is this my acceptance speech?"

"You can think so, because I want to know your mind too." Delphinium was blunt.

"Hmm...... When do you want to say it, it should be since the last time you called? ”

Xia Liang nodded his chin and said with a little thought: "I really didn't think about this at first, I just think that you and Uncle Lin know each other, after all, you also said it, junior senior: You and Xiaolu's mother used to be teammates, and it is normal to know her father." ”

"But, last time, when the magical girl with claw marks called, you appeared at Uncle Lin's place of work for the first time, junior senior."

After that, I remembered what happened before, which Xiaolu told me: on the day Uncle Lin went to give her a parent-teacher conference, the light rail tram encountered a remnant beast on the road. The remnant beast was also disposed of by the junior? ”

Delphinium paused slightly, then nodded: "That's right, but it still doesn't seem to be evidence." If it were only to this extent, the past could still be explained by the phrase 'there was a close connection between me and him'. ”

"But this is the second time, phone."

After hearing Delfinch's rhetorical question, Xia Liang pointed to the other party's pocket: "If you and 'Uncle Lin' are really two people, junior senior, and they are closely connected, so that every time a remnant beast appears, you can rush to the ...... as quickly as possible So there's no reason to let each other's mobile phones be left here, resulting in the loss of contact between each other, right? ”

"Just like the little senior, you are worried about our safety, so you ask Xiaolu to notify you when you find the remnant beast, if you also have some kind of intimate relationship with 'Uncle Lin', even if the phone is lost at the other party, it must be the first time to get it back."

"There are many other suspicions, such as junior, you and 'Uncle Lin' seem to be close but have overlapping actions, and Hong Si and her sister seem to be a little interesting to 'Uncle Lin', but they have no opinion on your relationship......"

As he explained sentence by sentence, Delphick's expression also changed from helplessness to thought, and finally returned to flatness.

There was no joy or anger in her flat expression, and she couldn't find a trace of personal feelings, which made Xia Liang, who was still a little invited, gradually become hesitant and even a little weak-hearted.

"I know, it's not enough to be sure of everything. And my speculation is so strange, it is very likely that it is just my own delusion. That's why I took advantage of this opportunity to prank a bit, and I want to get the real answer from you, the little senior. ”

After describing her thoughts, seeing that Delphinium still didn't say a word, she could only bite the bullet and say, "Did I make you angry by doing this?" ”

- Are you angry?

Delphinium couldn't help but ask herself.

It stands to reason that when something a person is trying to hide is exposed by others, it is somewhat embarrassing to feel that his privacy has been snooped on by others, which is an offense.

However, now she doesn't feel that way at all. Compared with the shame of the secret being revealed, what she felt in her heart was more of a relief after letting go of the burden.

After all, her original intention, what she really wants to do, has never been to deceive.

Thinking of this, Delphick's gaze finally softened, and in the end, it closed its eyes.

The bits and pieces of getting along day and night will always reveal some clues, and Xia Liang is indeed sensitive enough to extract the correct answer from a bunch of clues.

“…… Children who are too smart are sometimes annoying. ”

She commented softly.

"Hehe, thanks for the compliment."

Seeing that Delphinium finally responded to herself, Xia Liang also showed a smile on her face again: "But I don't want to be hated by the junior yet, I'm starting to be a stupid child now, can you not hate me?" ”

"It's enough that you don't hate me, or rather, I thought you'd be angry."

Reopening his eyes, Delfinium's eyes were clear: "After all, in fact, I also lied to you, just because I couldn't face the relationship with Xiaolu frankly, I hid it from you." ”

"Besides, it's strange that an uncle in his thirties is a magical girl or something in private, right? Such an uncle is casually in front of your seniors.,Pointing fingers at you doing magical girl things.。 Don't you feel disgusting? ”

- "Huh? ”

Hearing Delphich's words, Xia Liang was a little stunned, and then shook his head and said, "No? ”

"I'm not qualified to dislike other people's disgust, right? What's more, that object is still a junior. You are the person I respect and rely on the most right now. ”

She walked over to the balcony railing and stood beside the delphinch: "I know my bad nature very well. When I was a child, for the sake of simple self-satisfaction, I failed to speak out to stop the conflict between my parents; And because of these things, he gave up on himself.,Directly became a 'bad boy' in the eyes of most people.,Now it's hard to find a place for yourself in the magical girl squad.,But you're still immersed in this desire.,Hungry for more care and love.。 ”

"I'm so ugly, and I'm the least qualified to dislike other people's disgust."

She said as if she was sighing something.

And as Delphinium turned her gaze over, the two looked at each other for a moment, and Xia Liang suddenly opened his arms again.

"What?" Delphinium said a little strangely.

"I want to hug." Xia Liang said with his hands open.

"Why?"

"Little senior, you don't believe me, I'll hug you to prove that I don't hate you."

"I've already believed, don't do such a cowardly thing." Delphinium said with a look on her face.

"If you don't want to, I'll tell Xiaolu." Xia Liang puffed out his mouth a little awkwardly.

The delphinium was speechless.

She looked up at Xia Liang, and couldn't help but look in the direction of her room, only to see that the light was still on at the window, reflecting the shadow of Lin Xiaolu lying on the desk.

“…… All right. She couldn't help but sigh again, and opened her hands a little stiffly.

Xia Liang laughed a little snickeringly.

She took two steps forward, bent down slightly, and hugged the delphinium.

At the end of summer, the heat in the air is drained by the cool breeze, and the night is slightly cold, and the breeze passes through the buildings and blows over the small, low balconies.

The cicadas downstairs were a little hoarse and low, and the cicadas in the trees tried their best to make the last chirp of their lives, as if to say goodbye, to the last summer of their lives.

“…… How's that, do you feel it, I don't hate the little seniors. ”

On the balcony, Xia Liang gently hugged the delphinch, and his voice was buzzing: "Even if 'Uncle Lin' is standing here now, this simple feeling is the same." In that case, I probably wouldn't dare to hug it. ”

"Actually, you didn't need to carry it in the first place." The delphinium remained motionless, her body stiffening slightly, "I said, I already believe in you. ”

Xia Liang didn't respond to this sentence, as if he didn't hear it, or pretended not to hear it, so he quietly hugged Delphinium for a while.

"Sure enough, holding the little senior will feel very reassuring, cool, soft, and fragrant."

After maintaining it for a long time, she suddenly said: "Actually, I wanted to ask last time, what kind of shampoo do you use for your hair?" ”

“…… I can send you the brand of shampoo if you need it. ”

Delphinium looked blank: "I've been holding it long enough, so can I let go?" ”

"No, you can't."

Xia Liang also maintained his posture motionless, and said softly: "It's better to say that now I am filled with a very ugly joy in my heart: because I feel that I have found the secret that my junior disdainfully spoke, we now have something in common, a common secret, and now we finally have a different relationship." ”

"I want to emphasize many times that I don't hate the juniors, after all, it was the juniors who pulled me back from the edge of the cliff. I just want to know more about the juniors and want to know more about you. ”

"As I said, I'm a loveless child, so please don't blame me for holding on so tightly."

"After all, if I don't do this, all I get will be the love left over from Xiaolu, which is the same thing as leftovers."

"It's my ugly, insatiable greed, but I don't want scraps, I want my share. Even if there is no change in size, as long as it belongs to me. ”

This time, Delphinium really didn't know how to respond.

Although Xia Liang's expression was very vague, she could understand what Xia Liang meant.

It's the same thing as Xiaolu, not leftovers, even if there aren't so many. Delphinium can give Lin Xiaolu wholeheartedly, but it is difficult to share the profit to Xia Liang, and naturally there is only one thing - family affection.

Xia Liang's request is tantamount to saying that he wants to treat himself as a parent, hoping that he can treat her like a child.

But because she understood, she couldn't speak. It's better to say that for Xia Liang's somewhat cross-lined, even stubborn thoughts, she felt confused for the first time.

This request is too abrupt and arbitrary, and it should be a serious matter in itself.

She could understand Xia Liang's desire for family affection after losing her father and being coldly abandoned by her mother, but she never thought that she would throw out such a request at such a point in time.

If Delphinch is a very casual person and doesn't care about the various responsibilities and ethical issues behind this request, then she can naturally accept it at will, and say that Xia Liang will be her own righteous daughter in the future, and the two parties will consider themselves parents and children.

However, she is not that kind of person, and she understands and attaches great importance to the weight of family and affection.

From being a magical girl's predecessor to being a parent-child, the span of this relationship is too big, and the responsibility behind it is too heavy, so heavy that Delphinium can't speak.

Even Lin Xiaolu, a daughter, has had so many problems with each other, can she really take on this responsibility?

After thinking for a long time, the delphinium pushed Xia Liang's shoulder, and the two parted from the hug.

"Think about it again, I need to think about it too."

She tried her best to keep her voice as soft as possible, so as not to touch Xia Liang's emotions: "You are a very good and excellent child, I am very happy that you are willing to recognize me like this." However, I don't want you to regret it in the future, and I want us all to be responsible for your future life, so don't make that decision lightly. ”

"I've already ......" Xia Liang wanted to say something, but saw Delphinium make a silent gesture, and then shook his head.

"Today's time-for-wills are over, and you should remember that waywardness should be 'moderate.'" Delphinium said.

Xia Liang was stunned there for a while, then shook his head, and laughed a little helplessly: "Okay, then I'll talk about these things later." ”

"However, I have one more request."

Patting her face, she regrouped and looked at Delphinium seriously: "As the last willfulness of a bad boy, although I didn't plan to tell Xiaolu, I want a hush money." ”

"Exactly?" The delphinium looked up and clasped her hands.

"Specifically, just make an appointment any day, we-"

- "Ah, you're all here! ”

Xia Liang's words were not finished. Because of this, he was interrupted by a voice coming from the living room on the side of the balcony.

I saw Lin Xiaolu holding the test paper in her hand, pulling her slippers, walking from the living room violently, and then slammed open the balcony door: "You left me aside, what are you secretly saying behind my back!" I'm going to hear it too! ”

Xia Liang could only stop her words, because this was not something that should be mentioned in front of Lin Xiaolu, so she chose to keep her mouth shut and glanced at Delfinium with a smile.

The delphinium knew what the other party meant. In just one night, this was the first time she had the urge to sigh for the first time.

But at the moment, she was not ready to expose the truth to Lin Xiaolu, so she had to droop her eyelids, and then, in unison with Xia Liang:

"Nothing, talking about the topic."

This is yesterday's update, and it ended up stuck until now. There's another chapter in the evening.,That's today's update.,Try to write a little more.。
