Chapter 390: Fierce War
The water in the kettle was already boiling, and she was taking out some tea from the tea container on one side and pouring it into the purple sand teapot, and then pouring hot water into it.
Pour out the first bubble, and then pour in some water, her movements are very quiet, her back is straight, and she is concave and convex against the background of the clothes, elegant, quiet, and has a unique artistic conception in it.
The faint and elegant fragrance of tea pervades the air, which makes people feel calm.
The distant sunset slowly set as they spoke, and the smoke from the castle's chimneys was hidden in the darkness.
The door seemed to have been pushed open, but what came out was a tiger with white eyes, snow-white hair as the main tone, and black tabby stripes dotted among them.
Its body resembles a wall, its limbs are thick and powerful, its tail is long, and its mouth has sharp canine teeth, which looks extremely oppressive.
As it approached Alicia, it rubbed her dress affectionately with its huge tiger head, and Alicia reached out to stroke its tiger hair.
Its fur is actually not as supple as it was when it was a child, and it becomes coarse and hard.
However, the white tiger obviously likes Alicia's petting as well.
"Go find your father." Alicia patted it on the head.
The white tiger walked towards Char and rubbed Char's thigh, which made Char feel like he had been brushed by a steel brush.
He felt Alicia glance at each other, and almost at this moment, they both understood what he meant from each other's eyes, and they both smiled a little helplessly.
"This kid is growing a little too fast." "It feels like it's going to grow faster than Sonny." ”
The current white tiger is almost the size of an adult Siberian tiger.
"After all, his recent nutrition has been really good." Char nodded, "In the future, it is estimated that the president will be about the same age as Sonny." ”
"That's enough, it's not good if it's too big." Alicia bowed.
Alicia picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip and said, "Speaking of which, I don't seem to have heard you talk about Stark's past, did he have a lot of care in the past?" ”
"A playboy, the cover girl harvester, but he later met a true love and experienced a lot of things, and his heart was settled." Char said.
Alicia nodded, "He's funny, but he really doesn't look like a flower." But. I don't know what people think nowadays, how can they give themselves up before they are sure whether a person loves them or not? ”
Char smiled, and he looked at Alicia, "You're not like other women. ”
"What's the difference?" Alicia asked curiously.
Char thought for a moment, as if organizing the language, "You never asked me if I loved you, and you never asked me when I fell in love with you, these are the questions that many women often ask. ”
Alicia didn't answer immediately, she just poured some tea into her teacup, which she picked up but didn't drink it immediately.
"You are very expressive, but you can't express emotions." "And, verbal promises, which I think are the most false thing in the world, I prefer to feel the details." ”
"What are the details?" Char picked up the teacup on one side and asked curiously.
"For example." Alicia's eyes twitched upward, as if she was thinking, "Every year, you will give me a birthday, if you miss it, you will make up for it, and every ten years, you will also hold a birthday banquet for me." ”
"Isn't that a normal thing?" Char laughed.
"Every year." "For more than 100 years, it's been like this. ”
"Also, as long as you have time, you will accompany me to walk the streets of various countries, and you will often accompany me to watch the sunset.
Many times, when you go to some new city or new place and come back, you will also bring me a gift, and you will also bring me a copy of something delicious. ”
With a smile on her lips, she ripped her hair open and pointed to the ruby earrings on her ears.
"Remember this?"
"I brought it to you when I came back from the Nibelungen Treasury." Char said.
"It's my favorite gift." Alicia's face glowed red, "You have no idea how happy I was when I received it. ”
"I just thought it would look good on you." Char said.
The smile in Alicia's eyebrows and eyes was a little more gentle, like the tender green branches that grew after the ice and snow melted when early spring came, full of vitality.
"That's enough." Alicia drank the cup of tea in her hand, "For me, all the complexities of love are attributed to "one room, two people, three meals, and four seasons".
I don't need anything to be vigorous, but as long as you think of me when you do a lot of things, that's enough."
Alicia looked at Char quietly, her eyebrows slightly closed, and she spoke.
"So, if I were to ask like someone else, how would you answer?"
"What?"
"Like, like you just said, when are you from. Decided to move forward with me in the future? ”
Char raised his eyebrows and teased, "It's been more than a hundred years, isn't it a bit late to ask this?" ”
"Will these memories of yours disappear because of time?" Alicia asked rhetorically.
Char bowed, and then, he squinted his eyes, as if recalling that the memories of more than a hundred years were not so easy to sort out.
"It's like. There are no particularly critical nodes, or rather, I can't be sure which one it is, can I select more than one? ”
"For example?"
"For example, when I first met you, you were wearing a black dress and an eye patch like a crown, jewelry, noble and elegant, I have never seen such a good-looking person in my life."
"But at that time, you didn't have a heart."
"The heart is not the main emotional organ of human beings." Char smiled, "I think if I had the heart at the time, I should have surrendered directly."
Alicia was amused by him, her eyelids tucked, "How did you learn to say such pretty things?" ”
"Is that a pretty word?" Char thought for a moment, then continued, "I'm just telling the truth. ”
"What else?" Alicia complained, "Aren't you just interested in seeing lust like this?" ”
"I don't think it's strange that the eyes are the windows to the soul, and the first way everyone knows another person is by their appearance, and then they decide how to get along." Char said.
Alicia nodded, she stared at Char quietly, her slender eyelashes blinking naturally with her eyelids, and her eyes were like water.
"You're good-looking, too."
Char smiled, and he continued to think for a moment and said, "If there is anything else, it is. You have a strand in you. It's a nice smell, it's very special, other people won't have it, even if you use different shower gels, it won't wash off that smell."
"That's not as good as the first one." Alicia said amusefully and helplessly.
After a pause, she muttered, "No wonder you always like to smell me everywhere." ”
She lifted the teapot again and poured tea for both herself and Char.
"Today's tea is exceptionally delicious." Char said.
"This year's newly harvested West Lake Longjing." Alicia said.
After a pause, she asked softly, "Isn't there anything else besides these?" ”
Char smiled helplessly, but since it was a topic he provoked, he continued, "Do you remember the Dionysian sacrifice? ”
Alicia nodded.
"That night, a lot of people were celebrating, cheering, and jumping, and so were you.
Everyone was in a state of merry, and you were drunk, but, even so, you were able to find me in the noisy, complicated flow of people and pull me into the center of the crowd."
"I've actually been to such events in the past." Char quietly looked into the distance, "Before I came to this world, when I was still an ordinary person.
However, I have always been the quietest of these activities, not drinking, not singing, and rarely talking to people.
I thought I liked quiet, but that night I understood.
I was just. Someone is missing to pull me in. ”
"When you're drunk, you're very different from when you're drunk." Char said.
"What's different?" Alicia held her face in her hand and looked at his side face softly.
"The first time I saw you, you were a kaolin flower, not close to people, with the nobility of not eating the fireworks of the world, and at that time, you were like a red rose that had just bloomed, enthusiastic like fire, as bright as the dawn.
You have"
Char's words paused, as if organizing the language.
Far more tenacious than the appearance of the show, like a small grass, it looks weak and windless, but no matter what difficulties it encounters, it will not give up its life if it is burned by fire, experienced by wind and rain, and trampled on."
"Do you think so highly of me?" Alicia whispered.
Char shrugged, "Tell me the truth. ”
"Tai Sui." Alicia softly called out the name of the white tiger lying beside Char.
The white tiger then got up and walked over, looking at her with very bright eyes.
"Let's go to the island."
The white tiger let out a slight whining, obviously reluctant to do so.
"Go ahead, I'll take you to the land of fairies in a few days." Alicia said softly.
Alicia's words were clearly useful, and the little white tiger slowly returned to the castle with a low whimper.
"This kid is more worry-free than Sonny." Alicia said, "Sonny's energy is so good. ”
"There are pets for what kind of owners." Char said.
Alicia nodded approvingly, "Arthur was exactly like Sonny when he was a child. ”
She slowly got up from her seat, then climbed around the table and onto Char's chair, leaning against Char's collarbone and sniffing his neck.
"You actually have a very good smell on your body." Alicia whispered in his ear.
"Yes." Char rubbed her face against her hair.
Alicia raised her hand, holding Char's face with both hands, and slowly lowered her head, and after a long time, Alicia raised her head again.
"Want to sweat it?" She asked in a low voice.
Her voice is warm and pure, the words are correct and round, like gurgling water, and like the wind blowing willows, there is an indescribable sense of comfort, and the hints in her soft words make people's hearts itch.
A breeze crept through the canyon, hissing with the branches of the trees, and the river rippled, surging life in the impact, but also bringing a little coolness.
Char looked at Alicia quietly, her hair fluttering in the breeze, and the soft moonlight seemed to crush all the silence and sprinkle it on her long silver hair.
Char lost his mind and said, "On such a cold day, it's a good thing to sweat a little."
Alicia smiled, "Then I'll change my clothes."
The sky was getting darker, but I could still see the Milky Way.
From time to time two stars pierced into the Milky Way, or slipped into the darkness, with reddish or whitish tails of light, giving the sky some turbulence of light and heat, and some flickering bursts of darkness.
Sometimes one or two stars, sometimes several, fly down at the same time, making the silent night sky tremble slightly.
The afterglow dissipated, the Milky Way flowed, and the quietly lazy stars returned to their original positions, smiling in the breeze.
The sky gradually turned white, and Char was still sitting on the chair, looking into the distance with a blurred look.
Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he slowly turned his head, and in the distance of the sky, one after another airships were slowly approaching this side.
At the same time, with Char's eyesight, he also found that dozens of kilometers away from here, an elite mecha unit from Germany, as well as infantry and artillery units, were gathering in this direction.
Char even saw the huge Land Cruiser, powered by huge engines, with a huge number of exhaust holes and a gushing smoke to show its tremendous power.
It seemed that she also noticed Char's abnormality, and Alicia also turned her head to look at the sky in the distance in confusion.
She wondered, "What's wrong?" ”
"Army." Char whispered, "An army is approaching this side. ”
Alicia frowned slightly, "Why are you close here?" ”
Just 220 kilometres from Paris, Verdun is the largest transport hub on the front, on the main waterway of the Maas, and is served by 16 rail and road networks.
So, there's another name here, it's called the Key to Paris.
Taking this place means that they can threaten Paris at any time.
Come to think of it, it was what happened on the side of Tsarist Russia that affected them, so they desperately wanted to seek a breakthrough on the battlefield. ”
Alicia poured herself a cup of tea and took a sip, but instead of swallowing it, she rinsed it and spit it out the fence.
"But West Fran certainly disagrees."
"The intensity of this war may surpass that of the race country." Char looked at the town in the distance, her eyes flashing.
"It's going to be a fierce battle" (end of chapter)
