The sun is out, and the scorching sun shines onto the earth with every ray of light. Looking at the stretches of desolation and grassland in front of me, my heart gradually becomes calmer, no longer forcing, no longer suffering, and my heart is calm. The injury didn't seem to hurt anymore. I sat down on the stone steps in front of the door, leaning against the half-closed door behind me, admiring the natural scenery in front of me, breathing in the air full of sunshine, and closed my eyes. , not sleeping, just resting.
He came back after a long time, holding a cardboard box in his hand, with an ink-colored outer shell and curly letters written on it.

"Why are you sleeping here?" He stood in front of me and asked seriously when he saw me opening my eyes and looking at him.
"Where to sleep?" I looked back at the church. He also followed my gaze and sighed, "Eat first!"
As he spoke, he took out the contents of the box one by one. It turned out to be some very cute little cakes. In fact, I should have thought of it earlier. After all, such a box is suitable for such sweets.
"These..." I frowned and looked up at him.
"Well, you don't like it?" He looked down at me, who was squatting.
"Yes, no, I don't like sweets, although they are very beautiful." I put the small cakes back into the distinctive box one by one and handed them back to him.
"But you haven't eaten for a long time." He caught the box and said coldly.
"It's okay, I won't starve to death." I didn't starve to death even though I didn't eat any food for more than ten years. And that kind of hunger won't be as painful as that of humans. As long as I'm still human, I'll feel weak at most, and now I don't even have to walk. Even if I become like that, it doesn't matter, right
"But..." He hesitated when he saw me getting up and walking into the church.
"I know that your master will live." Without him having to say anything, I could already recite it, although every time I heard and said this sentence, my heart couldn't help but be stung.
"Then what do you want to eat?" he asked, who followed shortly after.
"As long as it's not sweets." I have never liked sweets. He knew this originally, but now he knows nothing. I sat down on the bench covered with his coat. Facing the angel statue in front, I suddenly discovered that its eyes were golden, so I couldn't sit still anymore. I stood up and came to the bottom of the angel statue to observe carefully. stand up.
"Okay, I'll look for it again. Don't go out here." He put down the box in his hand and rushed out like the wind. In fact, he could obviously take me flying under the sun, but he didn't. I didn't understand. As he disappeared from the door, he turned back and continued to look at the angel statue directly above him. He was male or female, with long hair shawl, and his whole body was pure white.
Nothing else matters, except why are its eyes golden
How could a human being see such an angel? It was not easy for even ordinary angels to see. After standing under the statue for a full hour, I suddenly heard a soft knock outside the door. I habitually turned around and looked directly at the door coldly, waiting for this passerby.
"How come this church is in such a dilapidated state!"
"Who knows! Maybe people have moved away and no one is taking care of it!"
"But there must be priests in the church! Even if people move away, the priests and bishops can't move away too!"
"Yes, then go in and take a look. Maybe you can find some clues inside."
"Yes." Listening to the other party's conversation and the footsteps approaching, I still stood there, standing under the angel statue, looking directly at the door.
"She..." As soon as he entered the door, he met my eyes, and the coldness in my eyes made the young man who stepped into the door first involuntarily exit again, only to step on the older man behind him. On the victim's feet, "Ah ~ Elend, what are you doing?".
"Who are you?" In the end, the young man didn't care about the feet of the person behind him at all. He stepped into the church again and asked me.
"Who are you?" I just repeated his words lightly. But his eyes were looking at the two people opposite him from top to bottom. One was a young man in beige casual clothes, who should be no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, with silver hair, and the other was an elder dressed in missionary attire.
"I asked you first." Seeing that I had nothing to fear, the young man walked towards me slowly, and finally sat down on the bench next to me, completely ignoring the dusty blanket on it.
"But I am a girl. If you are a gentleman, then before asking the girl's name, you should state your own name first." Although I already knew from the elder behind him that his name was Allende, but I I don’t want more humans to get involved in my life.
"That's right." He thought for a moment, then suddenly stretched out his hand to me with a smile, "My name is Elend, and that is my master, Bishop Silla. Of course, he is preaching now."
"Oh." But not only did I not stretch out my hand, I also turned my back.
"You haven't told me what your name is yet?" He walked around to me and asked urgently.
"Did I say I wanted to tell you my name?" I looked at him coldly, as innocently as a child, but it seemed more extreme than Lake.
"But I have already given my name." He explained hurriedly.
"You tell me your name. That's the demeanor you should have. But a girl doesn't have to tell you her name. That's her right." I said, raised my head and looked up, because I suddenly discovered , he looks a bit like the angel statue above, except that his eyes are not golden, but his hair is the same silver and falls off his shoulders.
"You..." He was so angry that he couldn't speak. His eyes widened and he clenched his hands, but there was nothing he could do to me.
"Okay, Elend, don't fight with the girls. Let's clean up here first, and then find something to eat." The elder who walked in later put the luggage on his back on the ground, and then took it out. They tidied up the church hall with some shabby clothes, lifted up some fallen chairs, and wiped off the dust on them. However, as they did so, smoke and dust filled the hall. I covered my mouth and nose and couldn't help but choke. , "Ahem..."
"I'm sorry~ Miss, if you can, please go outside for a while, okay?" The elder saw that I was choking, so he took a step forward and said gently.
"Yeah." Naturally, I won't be at odds with my body. Coughing like this won't do any good to the injuries on my shoulders and chest. So I turned around and walked down the steps. I accidentally caught a glimpse of the coat on the bench, so I took it and walked out of the church.
Standing alone outside the door, he shook the coat in his hand and patted it twice to remove almost all the dust on it. Then he put it on his body and sat at the door, smelling the clothes. Take in the smell he left behind and look into the distance. (To be continued)
