Chapter 100: The First Morning at the Secret Base
Since Xia Liang discovered the secret of Delphia's identity, he often deliberately made all kinds of intimate actions.
Sometimes she would sit next to the delphinium and play with her long blue hair, braiding it or tying it up.
Or, they will suddenly run behind the delphinium and cover their eyes, playing a somewhat childish game of "guess who I am".
More often, as now, he secretly made some small actions when Lin Xiaolu was there: such as tickling, kicking, or writing on the hand of the delphinium to pass on whispers.
The content of these whispers is also completely meaningless, they are all "I won't", "it's so difficult", "say it again" and the like, even if you say it directly on the table, it doesn't matter, but she just wants to convey it by engaging in small actions.
If it was just one or two times back, after the number of times, the delphia felt that she should hit her a little.
"Xiaojin, you've been reading this page for a long time, have you figured out how to write it?"
So she narrowed her eyes and said in a slightly cold voice: "I just told Bai Mei about this, do you want to exchange your experience with her?" ”
"Huh?"
Xia Liang, who had been pretending to be staring at the textbook, was slightly stunned, and then raised his head a little blindfolded: "What? ”
"Aren't you looking at the title?" Delphinium took advantage of the situation to withdraw her hand, clasped her hands in front of her chest and said, "Factorization, you just happened to communicate with Bai Mei about these types of questions." ”
"Ah, this ......" Xia Liang lowered his head and looked at the content on the page, a little speechless for a while.
Her reaction was also expected by Delphinium, because she had been focusing on small movements, and she was afraid that she didn't know what Delphinium was talking about just now.
And in this case, even if she knows how to write such a topic, it is difficult for her to pick up the conversation.
So, in Xia Liang's slightly resentful gaze, Delphinium began a righteous and strict lecture, using all the common sentences such as "how can you be distracted by the upcoming exam" and "you shouldn't be complacent if you make progress", so that Xia Liang was speechless, and could only bow her head and write the question obediently.
Lin Xiaolu on the side gloated, snickering; Bai Jingxuan looked at the two of them a little inexplicably, and then continued to look down at her book and meditate; Moco, who was sleeping on the bookshelf, was woken up by the sound and slowly rolled over.
In this atmosphere, the last weekend before the test ended.
It was another Monday, early in the morning, when the first rays of sunlight hit the bedside, the delphinium subconsciously opened its eyes. She sat up a little dazed, subconsciously touched the empty bed beside her, and then gradually came to her senses, turned over and walked off the bed.
The body of the magical girl is not actually like a normal person to secrete sweat or dirt, so there is no need to wash it, but Delphinium still obeys her habits and goes to the bathroom for a wash.
Then, taking advantage of the early morning, she began to wake the girls out of the room one by one.
Lin Xiaolu is the easiest one to wake up, probably thanks to the cold war with Lin Yun in the past two years, in order not to see her father's face before going to work in the morning, she often gets up early and goes out to school alone.
This habit has gradually changed with the easing of the relationship between father and daughter, and now Lin Xiaolu doesn't like to get up early so much, but she still maintains a relatively high sensitivity in her sleep, so as long as Delphinium knocks on the door, she can wake up as soon as possible.
Bai Jingxuan doesn't need to go to school now, but because there are still many magical girls whose homework needs to be tutored urgently, she can't relax.
Her work and rest habits are also very good, probably thanks to the experience of living in the welfare home for many years, although it is not as easy to wake up as Lin Xiaolu, but as long as the Delphinium knocks a little on the head of her bed, she slowly opens her eyes. And after being woken up by the delphinium, she will not make a fuss to sleep lazily or lie in bed, but sit up very actively and begin to meet the morning routine.
The hardest thing to wake up is the summer cool.
According to her own words, she won't get out of bed unless she sleeps until the last second before she is late. But the fact is that one of the main reasons why Xia Liang is regarded as a bad girl by her classmates at school is that she is late every day - this is what Lin Xiaolu said.
And now, now that everyone lives under one roof, Delphinium can't help but let her carry forward her bad habits.
After knocking lightly on the door, and without the slightest response in the room, the delphinium twisted the doorknob again, and entered the room, looking at the single bed by the window, which was covered with a bulge made of a quilt.
Walking forward, the delphinium looked at the bedside for a while, and saw half of the head peeking out of the bulge. Loose strands of black hair spread out from the gap between the quilt and the pillow, and slowly fluttered as the owner of the hair breathed evenly.
After waiting for a while with one hand on his waist, and seeing that the person in the bulge still didn't have any intention of waking up, the delphinium shouted, "Get up, Xiaojin." ”
All I got was the faint sound of breathing.
Raising her eyebrows, the delphinium decided not to keep her hand anymore, and sure enough, she reached out and grabbed the sheet, pushed it straight back, and then jerked it violently, and directly ripped off the quilt.
Even the figure in the quilt was revealed.
I saw Xia Liang holding a large doll, his head buried on the top of the doll's head, half of his face was attached to the surface of the plush toy, his eyes were closed, and he didn't mean to wake up at all.
She still had an inexplicable smile on her face, as if she was immersed in a sweet dream.
Delphinium turned around and walked a few steps to the window, opened the curtains from the window to let the sunlight into the room, then turned to the head of the bed, stretched out his hand and patted Xia Liang's shoulder: "Get up, it's time to go to school." ”
There was still no response.
After that, the delphinium tried various methods, but there was no response to patting on the shoulder, no response to pushing, and no response to even patting the door of the head. After repeatedly encountering obstacles, I had to choose a slightly excessive approach.
Pinch your nose.
Fingers on Xia Liang's nose, and then gently pinched, Delphinium squatted on the side of the bed, just quietly looking at Xia Liang's face, while secretly counting the time, so as not to really cause suffocation.
In this way, after lasting for about 30 seconds, until the delphinium estimated that she could not continue, and was ready to give up this act, Xia Liang finally opened her eyes.
"Ha-huh, huh, little senior?"
She opened her mouth in a bit of a daze, gasped for a moment, and then said a little strangely, "Why are you at my house?" Am I dreaming? ”
"This is our base, and your school is about to start in 40 minutes, so get up quickly."
After the delphinium let go, she took two steps back, and left the room without waiting for Xia Liang to say anything.
She didn't notice Xia Liang's stunned expression on the bed behind her, as if she was thinking about something, but the time was tight in the morning, and she didn't leave room for her to stay here.
Walking to the kitchen and figuring out the sleeves from the cabinet under the stovetop, the delphinium quickly pulled out a series of ingredients from the refrigerator and began to process breakfast.
Compared to the previous breakfast prepared by Delphinium at her own house, the breakfast prepared by Delphinium now has become four servings, but the process has not changed, but the action has increased.
Heat the water in a wok and add a certain amount of somen noodles, cut a few shallots and vegetables, beat a few poached eggs, and prepare the soup stock in the four prepared noodle bowls.
After that, the delphinium called the three little ones out of their respective bathrooms, and it was time for breakfast.
This was the first morning after the magical girl team in Fangting City stayed overnight at the secret base, and it was also the first breakfast that the four of them got together.
Delphinium paid attention to collecting feedback from several newcomers on the taste of breakfast, Lin Xiaolu and Xia Liang started their daily bickering early in the morning, Mo Ke said something to Bai Jingxuan, Bai Jingxuan sucked the noodles quietly alone, but also kept paying attention to the conversations of others.
A new week, and a new life, begins.
Delphinch began to continue tutoring Bai Jingxuan alone in the secret base, while the other two went to school to continue their schoolwork in the new semester.
Time flies, and the magical girls begin to get acquainted with their lives together in the secret base, and soon, days like this become the norm for them.
Lin Xiaolu and Xia Liang will go to and from school together, Delphinium will train and do housework with Bai Jingxuan, and Moco will still think of himself as a vital seeder, going out every day to find a new magical girl candidate.
At the same time, Lin Xiaolu would send a simple text message to Lin Yun every night, and Delphinium would also use Lin Yun's mobile phone to reply to some words of concern, and Bai Jingxuan would still occasionally contact the caregivers in the welfare home to report on her recent life.
During this period, there was also a cripple, but it was still a rather weak egg.
I don't know why, since the claw marks and the people of Ember Dawn were defeated, the remnants of the beasts in Fangting City have weakened a lot, and the frequency and intensity of attacks have decreased. It can be seen that the sudden increase in the number of cruel beast incidents in the previous period may indeed be inseparable from this group of people.
Delphinium didn't care about the weakening of the beasts, but she wished that there were no beasts in this world, and people naturally didn't need to live in the shadow of this crisis.
Being able to easily resolve these attacks was actually a good thing for her, for the newcomers to the squad, and for the ordinary citizens of Fangting City.
Everyone is adapting to a new state of life, making sure that something does not change, and at the same time allowing the self to make some changes.
Since then, Lin Xiaolu and Xia Liang's junior high school mapping exams have been held as scheduled.
At this point, the help that Delphinium can give has been exhausted, everything she thinks she can do has been done, and the next thing can only depend on the performance of the two.
In the days of the exam, even the atmosphere of magic training became a little dignified, Xia Liang and Lin Xiaolu both attached great importance to this exam, after all, this was an opportunity to show the results of their hard work throughout the summer.
So on the day after the exam, Delphinium specially took all the members of the team to eat a hot pot outside.
At the end of summer and autumn, the weather turns cooler, and it is also the season to go and eat hot pot. A group of small and small, but outstanding-looking little girls form a table of diners, which is also a unique scenery in a hot pot restaurant.
What puzzled the clerk the most was that among this group of little girls, it seemed that the youngest one was still the center, and both the order and the checkout were carried out by him, which was really surprising.
During the dinner, from time to time, diners at the next table cast their eyes at the magical girl's table, and some people even felt very strange and wanted to take pictures, but they were politely stopped by Delphinium, and finally they could only regretfully put away their mobile phones.
In this way, half of the team members have been nervously preparing for the final exam, and this is the end of it, and the rhythm of the magical girls' lives has slowed down again.
Of course, I don't know what the children think, but Delphinium has its new troubles: as September is halfway through, many things have settled, and a new trouble is approaching.
Make an appointment with Xia Liang and go out to play together, the day is coming.
