In mid-October, Wanglonggang is still warm and warm.
The moist sea breeze blows from the blue sea from time to time, and the white-winged seagulls circle the harbour, making a cool chirping.
The laurel trees on the street are still lush, and the leaves cut the sunlight and sprinkle sparsely on the shops along the street.
Chu red bricks form the outer wall of the cafe. Behind the golden-brown glass window, there is a quiet interior of the cafe. There are small round tables scattered here and there, and a few customers are drinking coffee and tea and chatting about recent current affairs.
There was a long whistle sound from the harbour not far away. It was said that it was issued by a new ironclad ship in the south. Now this whistle sound is gradually spreading to the harbour in the eastern border of the empire.
"Ding bell~" The door of the cafe was pushed open, and the wind chimes on the eaves of the door were touched, making a crisp sound.
"Hello, welcome~" The maid in the store stepped forward skillfully and kindly, only to realize that it was a beauty in men's clothing who entered the room.
The snow-white trousers fit nicely, and the jacket looks like some sort of navy uniform, with epaulets and embroidery.
After this valiant woman entered the room, her eyes swept across, she quickly locked her target, and strode over.
"So it's here, let me have a good meal." After speaking, she sat down directly and asked the maid to serve a glass of iced wine.
At this time, the talents in the cafe turned their attention to another person at the same table as the visitor.
He has blond spiral hair and a light white sun hat on his head. He is wearing a light blue and white fashionable dress with a small handbag on his waist. . Her face was hidden in a veil of white lace, and it was impossible to see it, but that figure should be a rare beauty.
Just when everyone guessed which family's eldest lady this is, the beauty in men's clothing who entered the room directly spoke up.
"Letice, why are you still dressed the same as ten years ago? It feels like that kind of fashionable and earthy look."
It was really a gathering of enemies, and she sneered directly when she opened her mouth. Lettis clenched her fists and resisted the urge to hit someone, so she spoke in a leisurely manner.
"Don't you know how to keep a low profile? My dress is the most suitable for the current situation. You are like a fool, wearing such clothes, for fear that others will not know that you are here." Very good Letice really can't think of any swear words for a while.
"Yes, yes, my Alena's style is like this, I can't change it, haha." Seeing this old friend's shriveled appearance, Alena laughed again.
"Being free is all about being free. Why hide and hide? I don't think the lords of the Eastern Region care about this. I often do business with them."
Alena said, flipping the hair on the side of her ear, revealing a confident and proud look.
"Okay, you're amazing, hum." Letice decided to ignore this guy and took a cup of tea.
The two greeted each other, and after getting to know each other a little, Alena asked about other situations.
"Why is it just you, Nia didn't come? I heard that Lorraine and Ye Ling also came."
"Niya arrived a long time ago, and is now at Bumansa and Lily's house. As for Lorraine, she said that she has informed Yeling, and it is estimated that she will arrive in the next two days."
"I'm here just to pick you up. I'm afraid you don't know where Bumansha's house is, and you will be embarrassed by running around."
"How is it possible that the environment at sea is so complicated that I won't get lost, let alone on land." Alena looked disdainful.
As they talked, the two of them quarreled about who knew Lu better, and which one was often unable to find the classroom late at school, and quarreled about related issues.
After a while, the two of them had almost three drinks before getting up and leaving the cafe.
"Did you see that docked ship?"
On the street leading to the dock, Alena pointed to a parked iron-hulled cargo ship.
"I see, it's ugly." Lettis commented sincerely.
"Uh, how can it be called ugly, do you know how practical it is? Whether it is the volume of the cargo space, the fuel conversion efficiency, or the degree of durability, it is a great breakthrough, okay?" Alina said about the ship's it is good.
"But it's ugly." Letice push back with just one sentence, then turn around and walk to the other side of the street.
"For me, I will build a beautiful cruise ship, so that everyone can have a dreamy enjoyment and experience."
"What's the use of a cruise ship that looks good, it's practical if it can transport things." Alena followed.
"Practical things are actually very satisfying, and those are the actual needs. But spiritual pursuits are never-ending." Lettis said of her new ideas in recent years.
"Aha, you seem to be talking about the kind of literary girl who loves a better life. If I didn't know that you also invented lethal weapons, I would really think that you are the kind of young lady who is not deep in the world and is addicted to dreams. "
"I was." Letice turned and glanced at Alena.
"Whoever said that becoming mature has to be realistic. I think that being able to stick to your original aspirations and hobbies is also a real strength."
"That's true, but I still find it hard to believe." Alena shook her head, then stopped talking.
In fact, she had inquired about the whereabouts of Letis, and knew that this eldest lady had spent a rather dark and humble life, and that kind of huge gap is probably not something that ordinary people can bear.
If I could see what they looked like at that time, I'm afraid the two would never be friends again, that kind of humbleness in the dirt in front of their old enemies and friends.
And seeing that Ledis is still the same as in her memory, she is inexplicably relaxed and happy, and even wants to argue with her to make this guy angry.
Countryside fields at night.
At dusk, the stars are scattered in the sky, and the afterglow has not yet dissipated, and a few smokes are rising from the village.
A two-story hut built of stone is brightly lit. The hut that used to be lived in by one person is now crowded with busy and lively figures.
"Niya, have you stirred the cream yet?" Bumantha was busy in front of the stove wearing an apron.
"Okay, I'll bring it right away." Said, a mature beauty with curvy horns walked into the kitchen from the hall.
"Okay, let Alena sprinkle the cut fruit on it evenly."
"Uh-huh."
"Where's Letice?"
"She is talking with Lily, and the two are talking about the style that was popular in the imperial capital in the past."
"Hells and Dean are playing next to them, don't worry."
"OK."
After that, the two were busy for a while. When the sumptuous dinner was about to be prepared, there was a sudden tremor from the roof, and then the familiar voice of Ye Ling.
"Stupid bird, it's all your fault. Didn't you say you remembered the direction? You flew the wrong way several times."
It was followed by a whimper of grievances.
"Eye Spirit~" Lily was also happy at this time, and quickly went up to the second floor.
After a while, a girl with two ponytails with dragon horns jumped downstairs. She was wearing an oriental dress, holding Lily in one hand and a 'fat bird' in the other.
"Wow, Sister Nya, and Letis and Alena, you are here too."
The dragon lady jumped around the room curiously.
"It feels a lot bigger than last time. It was only the first floor at the time. No wonder Dai Ju made a mistake and searched for it for a long time." After listening to her, the 'fat bird' in her hand made a grievance sound again.
"Okay, okay, I know, I'll give you something delicious later." Ye Ling let go of the hand that restrained Dai Ju, let the guy jump up, and immediately crouched on the top of the cabinet, overlooking the few places below. people.
Although it is a bird, it has greatly improved its intelligence by following Roland Hill. Nowadays, it basically recognizes several people in the room, and Lily and Alena are relatively unfamiliar.
"啾啾~" (with delicious food)
The guy smelled the aroma of the food, flapped his wings, moved his chubby body, and started searching.
"Hmph, looking at how fat you look, when Lorraine comes, you must lose weight." Ye Ling sat at the table, shaking his legs, and only then did he take a good look at Lily, and then the two talked about the years The change.
"I didn't expect that the idea back then would actually come true." After listening to Lily's story, Ye Lingjin sighed.
"Lily told me before that she wanted to find a handsome and powerful prince who could play games and pursue this goal."
"At that time, in order to help Lily realize her wish, I was heartbroken. I used a lot of methods in the game to achieve the result, hum."
"However, I woke up now." Alena took Lily's hand and told her.
"Yeah." Lily's eyes were red, and then she wiped it with her hands.
"No, no, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I'm talking about the things that made Lily sad." Seeing this, Ye Ling jumped out of the chair and came to Lily's side, and quickly apologized and comforted him.
"It's nothing, actually I was too naive at the time." Lily blinked, letting tears stay in her eyes.
Slowly, after a while, her mood gradually stabilized, and at this time there was a knock on the door.
"First Evolution"
"dong dong dong"
"Who is it?" Ye Ling ran to open the door, and then made a happy voice.
"Sister Loran~(*^▽^*)" She opened her hands, wanting to hug.
"Ah, it's Ye Ling." He hugged Ye Ling with both hands, but unfortunately this is not Roland Hill, but Wei Miya.
"Did you miss me, little Yeling?" Wei Miya touched the little guy's hair. Among the few people, Yeling was still the same as before, as if he would never grow up.
"Wow, Sister Wei Miya, I miss you too." Ye Ling rubbed back and forth in Wei Miya's arms, but she was very good at acting like a spoiled child.
"Long time no see, Lorraine." Alena also walked slowly at this time, looking at it carefully.
Today's Lorraine Hill is still the same as it was back then, with black hair hanging down from his neck, light red eyes that are quiet and clear, and his appearance is still 16-17 years old.
"Lorraine still hasn't changed." She blinked, as if she knew something.
Now that she is a member of the Youngberry Kingdom, Alena naturally understands some secrets, and roughly guesses the true identity of this roommate. If it is true, then she has a very powerful friend.
"It hasn't changed, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to change in the future." Hearing Alena's ridicule, Roland Hill reluctantly nodded and had to admit something.
It's hard to hide, there are so many statues of Crancia, all of which look a bit similar to himself, and a fool can guess something.
"Haha, then I'll keep it a secret for you." Saying that, Alena pulled Loren Hill to sit at the table.
"Tonight Bumantha made me a lot of delicious food, and tomorrow I want to eat what Lorraine made for me. I haven't eaten it for many years, and I miss it so much now~"
"Okay~" She said so, and Roland Hill had no choice but to nod, expressing that she could fulfill this wish.
At this time, she had time to look at Lily, the friend who had left the royal family and returned to a peaceful life.
"Lorraine..." Lily walked over lightly, sat with her, and slowly talked about the past two years, what she had seen, heard, and her final decision.
"I made a lot of mistakes and walked a long way. In the end, I had to admit my past childishness and innocence." Her voice seemed sad.
Loren Hill gently stroked Lily's back with her hand, she understood the complicated emotions in Lily's heart, which were mixed with regret, inferiority complex, regret, loss, sadness, etc. These are emotions that can't be comforted simply by words. No one can say that they feel the same, and only oneself knows the taste of it.
So the girl could only hold her hand and listen quietly, until Lily's mood gradually stabilized, and Roland Hill spoke softly.
"I and Vimiya brought you gifts today."
After speaking, Loren Hill led Lily slowly outside the house.
"call out-"
A long whistling pierced the sky, a small star rose slowly, and then bloomed in the sky. The meteor that filled the sky crossed a long golden arc and fell to the earth.
The golden threads are like rain, and the stars are flowing.
The brilliant and colorful fireworks rose one by one and then bloomed. The light and heat released at that moment were so fiery and fiery that they trembled the night sky, and also trembled the gradually pessimistic and lost hearts.
The melodious strings are plucked quietly, and the light voice sings softly.
"My friends are gone"
"I can only sing this song alone"
"But you always flash in my mind"
"But it doesn't matter"
"All My Wishes and Powers"
"will take me to that door"
…
The singing is so peaceful, yet so full of power. In the low-pitched strings, the melody plays repeatedly, circling over and over again, layer upon layer, telling the love and strength that has never been given up and forgotten.
"I wrote a letter to myself"
"Is there anything else I want to say? 』
"I don't have to give up my life"
"The trajectory of life is full of mistakes"
"It may take a long time to find the way"
"Everyone is crying in vain"
"Now I see the light in the pain"
…
As the lyrics were sung repeatedly, there were several more voices singing in harmony beside Roland Hill. Several of them held hands, sat under the eaves of the fireworks, and sang softly together.
"The trajectory of life is full of mistakes"
"It may take a long time to find the way"
"Everyone weeps in vain"
"Now you see the light in the pain"
"Say goodbye under the beautiful sky"
"But your loving heart will be the real lifeline"
