The knight walked deeper into the forest.

He had told Miss Priest that there was an ancient tree of life in this forest, and that if she meditated under the ancient tree, she would be twice as effective in absorbing magical power.

Of course, he also learned about this from the princess who could draw the holy sword.

The sky is hung with a full and bright moon, the quiet forest is full of intermittent insect chirps, and the air is filled with the fragrance of trees and flowers.

He walked in one direction with ease, and in a moment he saw a beautiful figure with his back to him.

The priest, dressed in a white robe, knelt under the ancient tree, clasped her hands together and placed them in fists in front of her chest.

She wasn't meditating today.

She seemed to be praying to the God of life.

She hoped that the gods would set their sights on the knight so that he could find his way back.

The knight slowly walked behind her and sighed softly.

She turned her head to look at him as if she had felt something.

The solemn face was instantly overwhelmed by surprise.

"Ah, you're here?"

The moonlight passed through the gaps in the branches and leaves of the ancient trees, reflecting her quiet and soft face divinely.

She only hoped that he would come back safely, and nothing else.

……

"Shiina-san, are you unhappy today?"

Shiina Kirishi was inexplicably frustrated when she heard her words.

"Gensheng-san."

"Yes."

"You... Ay. ”

He really didn't want to bully her anymore, because her resistance to him was almost none.

The kitten was angry, and he had to coax him for a long time.

But what about her, she was still helping him make excuses when he bullied her.

"Have you dried your clothes?"

He looked at her dress.

"It's been blown dry."

Just now, Shiina Kiri's words let her know that Aunt Kawase told him about her.

"Oh, where are the shoes?"

He looked at her shoes again.

The little brown leather shoes looked a little damp.

"Shoes, not yet."

Gensheng Yuxia shrank a little embarrassed.

Of course, she was embarrassed to take off her shoes at work, and she had only recently come to the convenience store, so she didn't have spare shoes or slippers.

She saw Shiina's somewhat speechless expression and added.

"It's okay, it's okay to change it when you get home."

"It's okay, what if you get rheumatism in the future."

There are many things that you don't pay attention to before they happen, and it's too late to remedy them after they happen.

Moreover, the small leather shoes are not breathable, and it is so uncomfortable that water enters them.

He glanced at the convenience store, where there were only one or two people scattered because of the rainstorm that had just fallen.

Shiina Kiri looked at Gensheng Yunatsu's legs, which were still wearing black over-the-knee socks, and slowly squatted down.

"Don't!"

Genshengjie seemed to have a premonition of his move, and hurriedly took a step back, but he still grabbed his calf.

"Yuansheng, be quiet, if there are guests later, you can settle the bill. If someone finds out and complains to the store manager, we both have to deduct our wages and will be scolded. Ahem, Gensheng-san, you don't want to see me scolded by the store manager. ”

Shiina Kiri squatted in the cash register, tugging on her calf and not letting go.

From time to time, she shrunk her calves, but she couldn't break free.

"Don't move!"

Shiina Mist said in a deep voice, hearing that his tone was a little heavy, Gensheng Yuxia's struggle was really much smaller.

"Lift your left foot up a bit."

The black silk on her calves feels so good.

In fact, there is such a thing as black silk.,You have to see through who it is.,This is a beautiful girl's black silk in front of you.。

Anyway, he had inadvertently touched her two or three times before when he took her to the hospital, and it can be said that it was very tender.

The girl was a little reluctant at first, but she gave in to his irrefutable eyes.

Even if he bullied her like this, she still endured it.

She lifted her left leg slightly.

Shiina Kiri held her calf with her left hand and took off her shoes with her right hand.

"Don't."

Yuan Sheng Yuxia hurriedly whispered.

"Dirty."

Shiina Kiri didn't care so much, he squatted under the cash register and looked at the girl's little feet.

The little feet in black over-the-knee socks were wet, and the toes were shyly bent as much as possible.

There is no special smell, but after soaking for so long, it is inevitable that it is a little stuffy.

It seems that she has changed her knee socks a lot.

I don't know about her over-the-knee socks... Can't get out.

"Please..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she heard someone speak.

"Hello, please help me settle the bill."

Yuan Sheng Yuxia hurriedly looked up, and saw a middle-aged woman who put the shopping basket at the cash register, took out her mobile phone and kept typing, as if she was chatting with someone.

'It's okay, it's good I didn't notice. ’

Yuan Sheng Yuxia couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

She stood on one foot and held the basket in front of her.

"Hello, I'll settle the bill for you."

She swept a box of natto with a barcode scanner, and then suddenly exclaimed when she reached for a can of canned yellow peaches.

"Ahh

"What's wrong?"

The middle-aged woman looked up and glanced at Gensheng Yuxia suspiciously.

"No... No, I almost didn't hold it just now, sorry ma'am, bothering you. ”

"It's fine."

The middle-aged woman was not suspicious, shook her head and continued to look at the mobile phone in her hand.

Gensheng Yuxia scanned the code while looking at Shiina Kiri, who was squatting under the cash register.

He actually took off her over-the-knee socks on her left leg! Fall! Finish!

The left leg was exposed and cold.

He pinched her left foot and gently stroked her ankle.

'It's so itchy. ’

Yuan Sheng Yuxia was a little aggrieved, but he didn't dare to interrupt out loud.

She was afraid that the guests would find out about Shiina Mist's behavior, so she quickly quickened the movements of her hands, scanned all the contents of the shopping basket, and put them in the shopping bag.

"Hello, it's 5,800 yen."

"Okay."

The middle-aged woman counted out six thousand-yen bills from her bag and handed them to Yuxia Gensheng.

"I'll get you two hundred yen in change."

"Thank you."

After taking the change, she picked up her shopping bag and walked outside. As he walked, he was looking at his phone, typing quickly from time to time.

"Welcome to the next time."

When the middle-aged woman left the convenience store, Gensheng Yuxia closed her eyes and exhaled as if she was relieved.

She looked at the young man below her, who was still holding her feet.

"Don't bully me, Shiina-san." She said aggrievedly.

"Ahem, there's no one in the store?"

"Nope."

Gensheng Yuxia looked up at the convenience store.

"Your feet are a little white, and you lie to me that it's okay?"

"It's okay, it's really okay, I used to work part-time and occasionally get drenched in the rain."

Shiina Kiri didn't know what to say when he heard her words.

He wanted to bully and even molest her, but her words made him feel that he was really not human.

She used to work so hard, and getting wet in the rain seemed like a trivial thing to take for granted.

Moreover, she was in the rain today for him.

When she came to the convenience store in the rain, he and Aokora were eating dorayaki at a Doraemon-themed restaurant.

"Whew."
