moment.
In the dark of night, Richard walked into a quiet alley in Faroe City. He stopped in front of a wooden door in the alley and knocked on it with his hand.
He stopped knocking for a while and waited quietly for the person inside the door to walk out.
As a result, after waiting for more than a minute, there was no movement inside the door. He raised his hand and was about to knock again when an angry girl's voice suddenly came from inside the door.
"Hey, guy outside the door, I don't blame you for who you are. If you dare to touch the door again, I will break your arm."
Richard: "..."
"Ta-ta-ta..."
The hurried voice approached, and it sounded like someone walking angrily with clogs on their hands.
As the other party walked towards the courtyard door, he complained rudely: "It's true! Knocking during the day, knocking at night, knocking every day, knocking every month, can't you live peacefully for a while? This has been going on for three days in a row, and as soon as I want to go to bed, I When I smashed the door, I really thought this was a hotel.”
Richard: "..."
"Ta-ta-ta!"
The footsteps became heavier, and the person inside the door had obviously walked to the door. Then there was a "crash", the door opened, and a girl with round eyes poked her head out. It was the righteous girl Nerid, and she opened her mouth to curse.
Suddenly, Nairide's expression froze, she swallowed the words on her lips, her eyes widened a bit, and she spoke with a bit of surprise and surprise, looking at Richard standing outside the door and said, "Is it you? "
"Uh, it's me." Richard replied.
…
More than an hour later.
Richard was sitting in the living room of the witch Cersei's courtyard. In the study not far away from him, the sorceress Circe was translating "Old Simplified Chinese" for him.
The room was very quiet. Richard waited patiently, guessing what the witch Circe would translate after a while.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes...
Three minutes later, with a "squeak", the side door next to the living room opened, and the cat slave girl Heidi came out, brought a cup of tea to her, and said politely: "Mr. Richard, you have tea."
After saying that, he took out a few pieces of paper full of words from his arms, put them on the table, and explained: "Mr. Richard, my teacher is still continuing to translate for you, and now only one-third of the translation has been completed. I'm afraid that you I’m anxious, I’ll bring it over for you to take a look at.”
"Good work."
"It's nothing. You watch first, and I will help the teacher continue to translate, so that it can be completed faster." Heidi said, stepping away.
Richard watched the other party walk out the door, picked up the paper with the translation content, and continued to wait while reading.
In a blink of an eye, it was another hour later.
With a "squeak", the side door of the living room opened again. This time it was not Heidi who came out, but Nelide.
Nailid held a white melon fruit the size of an apple in her hand, and walked over while chewing it. She said in a vague voice: "My teacher has translated another third of the content. You can continue to read the rest. The last third, it won’t be done for a while.”
After speaking, he took out a few pieces of paper from his arms and handed them over.
"Okay." Richard nodded, took the paper, and lowered his head to read it.
Then I heard the "click-click-click" sound of eating melon in my ears.
Richard raised his head and looked at Nailid, who noticed it and looked over while eating melon.
You look at me, I look at you.
You look at the melon, I look at you.
You look at me while I eat melon.
Looking at each other for a few seconds, Nailid seemed to finally realize something was wrong. She swallowed the melon in her mouth with a "gudong", hesitated, and handed out the remaining half of the melon: "You... want to eat? Then... Want some?"
Richard: "I..."
He could clearly see the tooth marks on the melon, and there seemed to be a faint trace of saliva next to the tooth marks. Richard had a headache: by the way, he didn't want to eat the melon at all.
Blinking his eyes, Richard was thinking about how to refuse tactfully. At this time, Ned's eyes suddenly widened, as if he remembered something important, and said: "Hey, Richard, you said a mouse and a rabbit. What will the baby look like after birth?"
"Huh?" Richard was stunned. Even though he was as active in thinking as he was, he couldn't help but be confused when he met Nellid who jumped out of the way. He didn't know what the other party wanted to do
Narid looked at it, frowned, and said with a bit of displeasure: "Why, don't you know? I thought you knew everything. I overestimated you."
Richard's expression twitched a little, and he looked at Nailid, and he really didn't know how to answer for a moment. Should we seriously educate the other party on genetic knowledge and tell them that rabbits and mice are reproductively isolated and generally cannot reproduce
"Alas -" Nairide sighed at this time and said, "Forget it, since you don't know, then I will find the answer myself."
After finishing her words, under Richard's strange gaze, Nairide walked out of the door.
After walking out of the door, Nailid leaned against the wall and ate up the white melon she was holding in two or two mouthfuls. Then she patted her chest with some fear and said, "Huh, luckily I reacted quickly and changed the subject in time, otherwise I would have looked at that guy's eyes." , I will definitely agree to eat melon.
In fact, I was just being polite. If he really ate it, I would have suffered a huge loss. After all, I can only eat two of these melons a day, and I’m not willing to share them with Heidi, so how could I share them with him.
This guy is really stupid. The rest of the stuff is okay. This kind of thing really disappoints me. But then again, if you are not stupid, how can you not know what the babies born by rabbits and mice look like? Have you never seen squirrels - they can jump and dig holes to store food? "
Shaking her head slightly, Nairide walked aside.
Richard in the room continued to look strangely in his eyes. It took him a while to calm down and browse the newly translated content.
…
Not long after, another hour passed.
With a "squeak", the side door of the living room opened again. This time, the witch Circe came out in person, holding the last part of the translation in her hand, followed by Heidi and Nellid holding a new melon.
Circe, the witch with a detached and mysterious temperament, approached with light steps, put the paper with the translation content on the table, looked at Richard and said: "Wizard Richard, all ancient ancient texts are translated. It’s over, take a look.”
"Okay." Richard nodded lightly and said politely, "I really need to trouble Wizard Circe."
"No trouble." Sirsi responded, "This is as it should be. After all, I don't translate for free. I pay for it. This is actually a business."
"Even if it's business, it's still a little inappropriate to disturb me at night. I'm just impatient."
"Fortunately, I'm used to it."
Watching Richard and his teacher keep being polite, Nailide couldn't help but shake her head, and then started to eat melon.
"Click, click, click!"
The melon is crispy, juicy and sweet, and the sound is extremely loud.
Richard glanced subconsciously.
The witch Circe noticed something, turned her head and looked at Nerid with a straight face.
"Kacha, kacha." Narid asked strangely while eating melon, "Teacher, what do you think I am doing?"
"Eat more quietly," Circe taught.
"Why?"
"It's polite."
"Okay." Nelide said helplessly, holding the melon in her hands, covering her mouth and started to nibble on it.
"Click, click, click..." just like a squirrel.
