    Chapter 146 Something happened

    You know, I personally stopped the pharmacist Wagner from spreading death and destruction, and I was fortunate enough to save this world from the brink of collapse.  But seriously, compared with the work of coaxing children, the difficulty of saving the world is nothing to mention.  The petite bodies of these cute and terrifying children seem to be filled with endless energy by the devil. Each of them is an evil genius of destruction in terms of mischief.

    Sometimes I even think that if the last king of the world, Darrendir, and his evil minions had half the imagination and creativity of these little villains, they would have destroyed the continent of Falvi long ago - thankfully  Yes, they are not aware of this yet.

    ¡°Despite all the hardships, in any case, with a perseverance that surprised myself, I am finally collecting Mr. Edgware¡¯s lost alchemy notes page by page.  I once seriously doubted whether I could collect all the notes from these little devils before the end of the world. But when I found that the notes were just short of the last part, the world seemed to be still functioning.  It must be fairly normal - from this perspective, our world is relatively safe.

    If nothing goes wrong, the last part of the notes should be in the hands of an elf boy named Ligexis - he is also the only child in this city that I have not visited.  This taciturn young man lives in a wooden house in the north of the city. He has an older brother who travels far away.  Although I had heard for a long time that his brother was coming home soon, no one had seen him in such a long time.

    This child likes to play at the entrance of an alley. He always jumps up and down with a smile on his face.  When someone talks to him, he will tell you: his brother will be back soon, and at that time, mother will go to Santa Bakery to buy honey cakes - the most delicious cakes in the world, and also his most popular cakes.  The things I love.

    Like my meticulous understanding of other aspects of this city that came from nowhere, I had never seen this elf boy once, but I was inexplicably aware of these things.

    However, when I found this child at the alley, he was not running around as lively as usual. Instead, he was squatting in the corner of the alley, lowering his head and crying.  Whenever he stretched out his little hand to wipe away his tears, the stains on his hand would leave a few lovely black marks on his face, making him look as irritating as an abandoned kitten.  Love.

    I walked straight to him and opened my mouth awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

    How do you want me to say this?  Asking for something from a crying child?  Oh, by the Supreme God, I am afraid that even the King of the Last Days may not be able to harden his heart.  Moreover, he was so weak and cute. The way the little guy looked at passers-by with tears in his eyes filled with grievances made me, a cold-hearted warrior, couldn't help but want to reach out and pinch his white and tender face.

    I knelt down in front of him, gently rubbed his little head, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong, little guy? What makes you so sad?"

    If I hadn¡¯t heard it with my own ears, I would never have believed that I could make such a kind and friendly voice.

    Ligesis looked at me, stretched out the index finger of his right hand to wipe the snot that was about to flow out, and while sobbing softly, he answered me: "Isuckmy brother went home, and my mother asked me to go."  Buy bee sugar cake. Butbutsuckwhen I got here, a big wild dog jumped out and snatched the basket away. The bee sugar cakethe bee sugar cake was gone too, woo woo.  Woo"

    While he was talking, the clear snot in his nose was still flowing in and out with his breathing, which made people laugh.  I finally resisted the thought of wiping his nose and said to him softly: "There's no need to cry. If you don't cry, then I will buy you another honey cake. Are you willing?"  ?¡±

    The little guy immediately stopped crying and looked at me with wide eyes and surprise: "Is this true, sir?" he shouted, "Are you willing to help me?"

    Seeing the little guy¡¯s overjoyed expression, I smiled and nodded: ¡°Really, I won¡¯t lie to you.¡±

    "But" the little guy said hesitantly, "Mom said, good children can't take other people's things for nothing."

    "You won't get it for free" I replied, "Did you take some writing paper from Mr. Edgware's house? I'll exchange the honey cake for the paper, okay?  ?¡±

    "Well, okay" After hearing my conditions, Ligexis did not hesitate at all. He nodded vigorously, stretched out the little finger of his right hand, and said solemnly: "we will pull the hook, who will regret it?"  Who is the puppy??¡±

    This is the first time I have made a vow in such a cute way.  Although I had no intention of breaking the contract from the beginning, I still feel that this may be the most solemn and serious oath in my life.  I even felt that this might be the most holy way to swear an oath in the world. When my little finger and my little finger connected, there seemed to be a strange wave of warmth in my heart. This wave even made me  A feeling of guilt arose, making me feel that I should not have made conditions for helping this child.

    To be honest, at the moment when I pulled the hook, I suddenly didn¡¯t care at all about the precious manuscript of alchemy notes.  I wanted from the bottom of my heart to make this sweet child happy again and to regain his old spirit.

    After receiving my promise, Ligexis became happy again.  He stood up, jumped up and led me forward. If I didn't follow closely and was a little far away from him, he would turn around and wave to me, shouting to me: "Come here quickly."  , Sir, I don¡¯t want to keep my mother and brother waiting anxiously.¡± I followed him like this, turning from one alley to another, and then from one street to another, almost crossing  Halfway through the city, I finally found a secluded path.

    This road lies on a hillside, running through an arc from north to south. There are two rows of two- or three-story small houses built side by side on both sides of the road. The houses are already slightly old, and the original red paint  The masonry has a faint dark green luster, but bathed in the bright sunshine, it still glows with a layer of bright but not dazzling color.

    Between the doors of every two houses, there is a small flower bed separated by a white fence. Various plants grow in the flower bed. Some delicate vines climb to the top of the fence, and a few delicate branches stick out.  The flower buds are dancing gracefully in the wind.  Some walls were covered with ivy growing from the flower beds, and green leaves swayed on the walls like waves, making gentle rustling sounds.

    On the bronze plate on the wall of the intersection, the words "Rose Street" are written in a simple and vibrant font.  The bronze medal was covered with green traces due to rust, and even the original writing was a little blurry, almost completely hidden under the shadow of the trees.  But it is precisely because of this that people feel that such street signs are in harmony with the beauty of the years flowing quietly on this road, without feeling old and simple at all.

    Leghis stood in a two-story hut on this street and looked at me with joy: "This is it, sir. I like the honey cake made by Sister Marian the best."

    This is a small but cute bakery. The brass sign on its facade has accumulated a thin layer of dirt, but the words "Santa Bakery" on it are still very clear.  Many brightly colored, delicious and tempting pastries are displayed in the transparent display window, and a layer of sweet aroma floats in the air, making people unable to walk away when standing in front of its door.

    I gently pushed the store door open. When the store door opened, it collided with a wind chime hanging behind the door, making a pleasant "ding-dong" sound.

    Hearing the noise, a fresh face of a smiling girl turned around at the counter. She asked me in a voice as clear as a wind chime: "Welcome, do you need anything?"

    Then, I was stunned

    do you know?  In this vast world, in some known or unknown corner, there exists such a person.  Perhaps to all other lives in this world, he - or she - is strange and irrelevant.  It might be an ordinary passerby, a passer-by, or even a back view, a profile, a vague outline or even the source of a sound it doesn't make any sense.

    However, this person who may not mean anything to anyone else is the only special person to you, and this specialness only affects you.  The most amazing thing is that you may have met by chance countless times, and then missed it, until you discovered him or her at that shocking glance, and then something unprecedented happened, and you will feel the love in your soul.  A part of you has been lost since then, and you are not suffering from this loss, but are happy with it.  Your heart becomes so empty that everything you store in it becomes insignificant; but at the same time it becomes so full, as if it will be broken at any time by adding a little deeper concern.

    This glimpse comes so suddenly and vaguely. You may have been preparing for it for twenty, thirty, or even more years. However, when it actually arrives, you will feel that it is all so unreal - it  Did it really happen?  You will ask yourself this, but you will not be able to give yourself a definite answer in the first place.  And when this vague and sudden, slightly sour sweetness overflows in your heart, you will eventually understand:Yes, it all really happened!

    Is the touch between this glance an accident?  Meeting the person you want to meet among millions of people, in the endless wilderness of time for millions of years, neither a step too early nor a step too late, just like that, you just happen to catch up?

    Or is this a fateful necessity?  Even if you are not here, but in the distant place thousands of miles away; even if it is not now, but thousands of years ago or billions of years later; even if you have changed your appearance, appearance, identity, and gone through countless reincarnations  , however, you are still you, and he (she) is still him (her). The two souls in destiny will eventually meet. The limitations of life have no effect here, and the boundaries of the world are meaningless here. If you don't appear, he (she) will  Will (she) wait forever, waiting for that special moment to come, until the end of time and until the end of the world?

    I don¡¯t know, I don¡¯t know the answers to these questions, I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s coincidence or fate, accident or providence, I don¡¯t know where the only special person who belongs to you is at this time, let alone everything about you.  When will it start? The only thing I know is: at this moment, at this moment that I can no longer remember clearly but will never forget, on this sunny afternoon in early summer, on this natural and quiet road  , in front of the door of this simple hut, under the wind chime that was still ringing loudly, I met the special person who only belongs to me.  She was standing there at that time, wearing a bakery girl's white apron, with a brown ponytail, a few small freckles on her face, and a pair of dark brown, bright and clear eyes looking at me friendly and affectionately  , like two windows leading directly to the bottom of my heart.

    The girl's name is "Marian Santa". This is a very common name. There may be thousands of girls named "Marian" in this world, but I feel that she is the only one with this name.  The one with the most fitting name.

    At this time, that extremely ordinary but extremely beautiful name was like an extremely delicate flower blooming above the head of this lovely bakery girl. I couldn¡¯t help but want to take another look, but I was worried about my own gaze.  If you are too eager, you will burn it.

    Yes, something had happened, and I knew it, even though I wasn't sure exactly what it was¡ªin fact, I didn't know exactly what that feeling was until much later.  I don't know how long it took before I realized that I was in a daze. Then I became embarrassed and lowered my head to avoid those beautiful eyes.  My hands were like two extra bones, rubbing them repeatedly in front of me, not knowing where to put them. It made me so upset that I just wanted to cut them off and throw them away.  When I lowered my head and walked in, I accidentally bumped into the string of wind chimes on my forehead, which caused a series of tinkling sounds.  The sudden sound startled me, and I raised my hand to hold it in panic. I didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the ringing stopped completely.  At this time, little Ligshis also followed me into the store.

    "Hey, isn't this little Ligexis? Why are you back so soon?" Seeing the elf boy returning, the girl showed a strange look, but still asked kindly with a smile on her face.

    "Sister Marianne, it's like this" Seeing this girl, the elf boy seemed to recall the fright and grievance he had just encountered, and a watery light filled his big eyes again, "I took  Bread, when we were about to get home, a big dog suddenly jumped out of the road. The dog was so big" The little guy tried his best to straighten his hands and gesture, trying to describe the physique of the beast to her, but it was terrible.  Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, it was difficult for people to connect his description with an animal associated with "ferocity".

    "and thenthe honey cake I just bought was snatched away by the big dog, andand" The child lowered his head, ashamed and did not dare to look at the girl, "and  The pastry basket you gave me was also snatched away by it"

    "However, this kind gentleman said that he could buy me some more, so I brought him here." At this point, the child stretched out his hand and pointed to me.  Following his finger, the girl looked at me again.  Her gaze made me so flustered that I couldn't resist at all.  I just hope that she will quickly move her eyes elsewhere and stop looking at me; but in the deepest and most secret place in my heart, I hope that she will always look at me like this and never look away.  open.

    "So that's it" The girl showed a clear expression and said to me with kindness: "You are such a good person, sir. May the Supreme God bless you." Then she turned back lovingly.  Go and say to the elf boy, "Legesis, you should thank this gentleman properly."

    Did you hear that?  She said I was a "nice person"!  I have never been praised in person like this in my life!  For a moment, I felt like my heart was growingBirds with big wings flutteringly want to fly out of my body.  "You are such a good person a good person a good person" This simple but precious comment echoed in my ears over and over again, making me feel a little hazy with happiness.  In a daze, I felt like they were saying something to me again, and I said something too, and then I took out some change from my purse and handed it to the girl named Marianne.  She seemed to put something in a bag, and then handed the bag to little Ligexis's hand, then leaned over and gave him a few words.  I don¡¯t remember what she said at all, I just remember her smile was so sweet and her tone was so gentle.  After she finished speaking, she even reached out and pinched the child's white face - I couldn't believe how jealous I was of that reckless and naughty child at that moment.

    When the boy walked out of the shop, he told me that I could come to his house at any time to pick up the last few missing pages of his alchemical notes.  Fortunately, my dazed mind finally did not miss this important sentence, otherwise all the hard work in the past few days would have been in vain.

    After watching the child leave, my heart suddenly sank.  I have completed my mission here, to help the cute elf boy buy another meal for his brother who has returned from far away.  Now, I seem to have no reason to stay in this store anymore.  You don¡¯t know how reluctant I was to leave this lovely girl. For a moment, I really wanted to become the counter in front of her, the cutting board on my hand, or the heavy oven behind her.  , just stay quietly in this hut with her and never leave.

    I walked toward the door, my legs feeling heavy and weak.  I suppressed the thought of turning back to look at her one more time, for fear that once I did, I would lose my determination to leave.  Yes, I am so greedy at this moment, how can one glance be enough?  I really want to watch her closely, for ten, twenty years, or even longer, until her figure is deeply imprinted in my eyes and carved in my heart, which can never be erased.

    Just when I was about to leave, the girl suddenly spoke to me again.  It was like the most merciful will of the gods, preached from the mouth of the most holy and noble angel, and I, a shy and dull mediocre person, was saved in this holy voice.

    she says:

    "Sir, please wait a moment"
