old light morning light

Chapter 39 "38"

Although the heart is still very heavy, but looking at the child who is eating big mouthfuls, one can feel an inexplicable sense of redemption.

I didn't redeem him, but he comforted me.

Eat every mouthful of food cleanly, every time I finish what I have on hand first, and then look at Nalia and me carefully, one of us nods before reaching for a little food, and then There was nothing left to eat.

Even though Nalia told him repeatedly that he didn't need to ask us, he could take whatever he wanted.

It's so cute that it hurts.

Since he was already in that state at that time, and he was still tightly holding the two pieces of bread that had been soaked in the rain and turned into a puddle of mud, one can imagine what kind of life he lived.

He's gone, and a new poor man has fallen into the tiger's den.

I don't know what's wrong, but I remembered the girl from another race who was held by the little yellow hair when I was looking for that animal a few days ago.

Oh, forget it, out of sight, out of mind.

What, do you want me to eat too?
"I won't eat it, you can eat it yourself."

Looking at the little slave who picked up a piece of bread and ate half of it, as if he suddenly remembered something, and quickly raised it towards me, I could only shake my head and wave my hands.

Maybe it reminds me of the days when I got food and shared it with my companions?
It can be confirmed that although this guy can understand some of our simple words, the syllables he uttered are basically the same as heavenly scriptures to us.

"Huh! Woo!"

With some strength, I spoke, let's take it as him speaking, and it became much clearer, completely different from the weak pronunciation that day.

Stubbornly holding up the half-eaten bread, he kept looking at me with the courage he didn't know where it came from.

Does this mean I have to take a bite before giving up?

Even Moral, who was disappointed because he couldn't get the food permission, came up and looked at me curiously.

"Why don't you just take a bite?"

Isn't this equivalent to kissing him indirectly?

"Why don't you eat it?"

After Nalia glared at me, she shook her head directly.

That's right, how can an aunt go with a little boy...

Is there murderous look in her eyes?

Eh?
Strange, could she read minds?
"Why don't you go and have a bite, Moral?"

"Farewell."

Hey, don't run, you...

Still stubbornly holding the slice of bread in your hand, you with thin arms and legs, wouldn't it be uncomfortable to hold it for so long?

Alas, it seems that you can't do without a bite, I'm used to it... I'm afraid you have to become an ancestor after you've cooked it.

OK, OK, you win!
"Okay, okay, just take a bite."

Obviously not much younger than me?

Just take a bite on the side where it hasn't been bitten...

This bread is quite delicious, but what about 30 Riggles, if it's unpalatable, I...

Hey, where are you going to bite!

Seeing me obediently leaning over to take a bite of the slice of bread, the guy even smiled slightly.

What I didn't expect was that he turned the slice of bread in his hand and started to eat from the side I bit into...

I seem to suddenly feel a little nauseous?
You guy, definitely did it on purpose, right?

But what's going on with such an aggrieved expression all of a sudden?
This makes it hard for me to say anything.

Little thing, you plot against me!

If I make a mistake, I will call you Char in the future, right?
Wait...so why Char?

"Okay, let's eat quickly, it's time to go on the road after eating."

Don't look at me with your dirty eyes, I don't like this.

It has been delayed for 4 days, and thinking of the uncomfortable feeling that day always makes me feel uneasy.

Help him get discharged from the hospital today, and I still have a deposit of 200 Reichsmarks to refund first.

"I'll go out first, you take care of him a little bit and clean up."

Come to think of it, this guy doesn't have health insurance, well, neither do I...

So this time, at least 300 Reichsmarks will be spent, plus 120, I will have to pay for you...

This can be regarded as a good idea for me. I will find an opportunity to get an insurance for myself in the future. It is really unreasonable to seek medical assistance in such a medical facility.

As for this guy, I hope he can be more sensible in the future, at least don't give me half-bitten bread.

But why did I spend money to buy a slave in a flash of my brain?

And even though that being said, I feel that this guy should be very favored among us, he is actually quite handsome, and may be very popular with Nalia.

Maybe slaves will be used in the future, um... In other words, he should be used as a butler or something.

Maybe it would be a great success in the future...

Okay, the bill says 352 Reichsmarks, including all kinds of miscellaneous expenses. Did you even do such things as psychological counseling?
Sometimes really, the Reichsmark unit makes me feel very big, but sometimes it makes me feel no different from Riggles.

As for psychological counseling, can he really understand your psychological counseling?

Isn't this a bundle sale?Or without the knowledge of the spender.

I was taken advantage of by myself!

Well, the next priority is to get out of here quickly.

According to the situation studied yesterday, the certificate of flight registration is time-limited.

But this guy Black Falcon didn't play tricks with me on this point, just like he said, he helped me get all the certificates.

There are 372 new calendar standard days before the next expiration. If calculated according to 12 hours of a new calendar standard day, it is half a year in the old calendar.

In order to facilitate the calculation of sailing time and match with the local planetary time, after the Aron Prime meeting, there is a new standard day which is convenient for matching and calculating the time of planets in different orbits.

Split the 24 hours of the old standard day into two 12-hour new standard days.

In this way, the existing old calendar time regulations will not be changed, and it is also convenient to flexibly match the planetary time in various places.

It is said that some radical space navigation organizations have expressed that they want to try to promote a standard day with a cycle of 6 hours...

It's far away, now think about it, it should cost a lot of money to re-register, right?

Oh, what would I look like if I had money?

Ah, has it come this far?
When I looked up again, I realized that I had already walked back to the door of the ward.

"what happened?"

Nalia, who saw me standing at the door thinking, but didn't come in for a long time, glanced at the little guy lying on the bed, leaned towards me, and asked quietly.

Maybe it's because he's worried about what disease he has?

After all, at the age of 16, he still looks like a child... Is there any need to ask what's going on?

Oh, there is nothing else written in this medical record, it should be just malnutrition, right?

"It's all right, are you ready?"

After all, being forced to do this kind of thing in that kind of place, it should be an extravagant hope to survive, right?

"He has nothing, except for the few clothes you bought for him last time, there is only one person left."

Nalia spread her hands helplessly, she looked like she had known her before.

"Then let's go, he should be full too?"

A bag of sliced ​​bread lay aside, only the last remaining.

Moral doesn't like to eat this kind of tasteless food, and Nalia will not compete with this guy.

Which means he almost ate an entire bag of sliced ​​bread by himself...

Well, maybe I'm hungry, and I have nothing to say.

I don't know why, but this guy showed a high sense of dependence on Nalia, even when walking on the road, he always wanted to hold Nalia's hand.

At the same time, he also showed a little resistance to Moral. What made him feel depressed was that this resistance did not act on me.

In other words, it was aimed at him, Moral.

But the funny thing is that after trying a few times, Moral smiled helplessly in the end, and gave up the plan of letting him hold Nalia with one hand and himself with the other.

Moral, Moral...

Humans always want to use some method to more or less achieve some small inner desires, and this is nothing.

However, we will need to purchase some more food next time, and the preparation time for this voyage may be a bit long, so it is better to have as many necessities as possible.

And you have to find a place to get a copy of the navigation materials, at least you can't rely on everything provided by Black Falcon.

Although there seems to be no problem on the surface, it is better to be careful about this kind of thing. Recalling the ominous premonition, it really seems to be trying to prevent me from leaving here.

Fortunately, in the past two days, there is no such looming sense of oppression.

"Moral, follow Nalia and bring him back to the boat first?"

Although it would be best for Nalia to bring him back alone, but because neither of these two people has a suitable status, one is my slave and the other is Nalia's slave.

"Ok?"

"Then where are you going?"

"I'm going to buy some food and put it on the boat. I don't know how long it will be adrift. If I can't land, I think it's better not to land."

Of course, there is no need to buy a lot of things to put on the ship. Now that you have a legal certificate, you can legally apply for a legal landing in the empire's landing zone.

But out of the intention of avoiding long nights and dreams, I am actually willing to fly all the way directly to the alliance-controlled area or enter the neutral port.

The shuttle has no weapons and equipment, so naturally there is no need to worry about violating the Aron Prime Treaty.

"Besides, neither of them has a solid identity. If something goes wrong, it will be difficult to deal with it."

In fact, what has always puzzled me is that, as a military member of the empire, I understand that Nalia does not have a civilian ID card, but at least she must have an imperial digital certificate that can prove that she is not a black household, right?

This kind of digital certificate is not a population certificate issued by the Colonial Administration, but a certificate for the effective participation of imperial military personnel in social interaction. I don't think she will not have it.

Then why does she never use this proof?

Even willing to become Moral's slave to gain a temporary virtual identity...

In fact, this has always been a key reason why I have always subconsciously refused to accept Nalia.

In the end, what else is hidden?
