Hearing the frightened cries slowly coming from the girl's mouth, Ke'er left her body and breathed a sigh of relief.
Great, she thought she had met some bad guy...
She's not good at fighting...she just runs away.
After the girl's crying gradually subsided, she said: "Um, are you here to find food?"
The girl looked at her in fear, and found that Ke'er had no desire to attack, and she didn't expect that the other person was actually a little girl, so she huddled in the corner and nodded.
Ke'er then said: "I don't have anything to eat here. I'm not lucky today. I only found fruit. You can eat this first to cope with it."
After saying that, she threw the fruit she washed on the road to the girl. The girl caught it, but still hesitated to eat it.
Ke'er sighed, and started eating heavily.
The girl only dared to eat after seeing her eating.
The two of them finished the fruit in a short time, but the sour fruit was almost as good as uneaten, and their stomachs were still rumbling.
At that time Kerr asked the girl's name.
"Nia."
The girl's soft voice slowly came from the front.
"My name is Nia."
170. Relying on each other
Almost because of Nia's arrival, Kerr's original plan can be said to be temporarily shelved.
During Nia's self-introduction, Kerr learned that she escaped from the country of Sestu. Due to the war, her father passed away early, and her mother, who depended on each other at home, was separated from her while fleeing. , and now his whereabouts are completely unknown.
The overcrowded escape vehicle carrying her was one of the first to leave the border. She said that when setting off, the village chief had planned several directions, and only one direction was guarded by soldiers. The transport vehicle transporting the villagers to escape would start from there. We will split up in a few preset places, and we will find a way to contact each other when we are outside the country.
Before departure, everyone made the most precise plans for various situations, and everyone thought it was seamless.
But no one knows which direction they will encounter the soldiers guarding the border. It all depends on luck.
Nia's bad luck was that they encountered soldiers in the direction they were fleeing.
And it wasn't just soldiers from their own country, there were even soldiers from the magical country. Their cars only saw the battlefield after they rushed down the hillside. The driver wanted to brake and change direction, but it was too late.
At that time, the huge war-spiked vehicle suddenly roared past the road, and the huge iron wheel was already in sight.
Everyone in the car watched this scene, watching this behemoth swallow all their eyes.
At the critical moment, Nia, who should have died on the spot, was kicked hard from behind.
This kick directly kicked her away, and she fell heavily to the ground three meters away, eating a mouthful of mud.
click!
Snapped!
The sound of the wooden transport truck being shattered was first heard from behind, and it seemed to be mixed with the sound of crushing bones and flesh...
Nia, who finally recovered from the pain, remembered the other people traveling with her and turned around hurriedly.
What she saw next became a lifelong shadow...
She didn't even know how to describe what she saw...
"Everyone is dead."
Nia said this with a cry.
Ke'er looked at her thin body and the pair of shoes under her feet that should have looked good but were already somewhat damaged due to walking a long way, so he walked forward, sat next to her, and stretched out his arms. He reached out and patted her shoulder.
"Don't think too much, it's all over."
"They are all good people. They will definitely go to the Hall of Valor after they die."
Nia asked with a cry: "Where is the Hall of Valor? Is it heaven?"
Ke'er scratched her head in embarrassment and didn't know how to answer. She just said the place name casually, as if she remembered it.
She nodded and said with a smile, "Well, yes."
Nia looked at Ke'er who was obviously taller than herself. On this late autumn night, the cold wind was blowing outside. She, a southerner, was already freezing. Ke'er only had a thin red dress on her body. Doesn't she feel cold?
She then wiped her tears and asked, "Sister Ke'er, can I call you that?"
"Of course." Ke'er agreed with a smile.
"Sister, where are you from? You are so beautiful. You don't look like us southerners at all."
"Huh?" Ke'er couldn't help being stunned, so she asked, "Why doesn't it look like it?"
Nia said: "I heard this from my uncle who sold vegetables next door. He said that the appearance of us southerners is relatively soft, and what we pay attention to is the overall beauty. Beauty is due to the combination of facial features. There will be no Which part is particularly prominent?"
"But people in other places are different. People in some places have one part that is particularly prominent, which will enhance the overall beauty. For example, sister, your eyes are very beautiful, and other parts of your facial features also have sharp beauty that stands out. This This appearance is definitely not seen in our south."
It was the first time that someone praised her like this, and Ke'er felt a little embarrassed.
But when Nia asked her where she came from and why she was wandering alone, Kerr was speechless.
The only one who could answer was that she had forgotten.
This is not a lie.
But Kerr thought about it and told Nia one thing, which had frequently appeared in her dreams in the past.
"There was a time when I often heard the sound of thunder when I was dreaming, and someone was chattering next to me. The sound was very noisy."
Nia asked hurriedly: "Is that your family? What are they talking about?"
Ke'er shook her head, "I can't hear you clearly, but I always feel like you are scolding me."
"scold you?"
"Well, after scolding for a while, I suddenly became quiet. Then in the dream, I seemed to be thrown from a tall tree. The feeling of falling from a high altitude is quite familiar to me."
Nia couldn't help but ask: "Sister, is it possible that your home is in a tree?"
Ke'er scratched his head.
"I don't know. I had this dream for a few days, and then I never had the same dream again."
It is worth mentioning that she has not discussed the content of this dream with Jing Chen.
Because I can’t keep my mouth free.
......
In the next few days, the two of them stayed together like sisters looking for food nearby. During this period, of course Ke'er still wanted to go to the battlefield to pick up bargains as usual, but found that the nearby war had ended, and the two of them had no choice but to go to the battlefield. Walking aimlessly on the ruined plain.
But on the day they decided to leave the cave and walk along the war plain for the last time, fate found them again.
The whereabouts of the two of them were quickly locked by the scouts on the battlefield.
The local people thought that the two of them were boy scout scouts sent by the enemy country to inquire about the situation nearby.
So a small team of troops was sent out and they were captured back to the military camp.
Right now is the most embarrassing time of the war, when the two sides are conducting peace negotiations. It is really difficult to appear on the border between the two sides at this time without making people doubt their intentions.
So these people began to interrogate the two children, but Ke'er didn't know anything about it.
But on Nia's side, they asked about the information they least wanted to hear - from the country of Cestu.
It turned out that the two of them had unknowingly walked into the jurisdiction of the Magic Kingdom. If you say you are from the enemy country here, it is basically the same as the end.
After hearing the name of the enemy country, the officers in the military camp didn't waste any time and directly ordered to kill them.
The two of them pushed him outside the tent without knowing why, and prepared to behead him.
But at this time, a voice hurriedly came from another military camp.
"What are you doing? What's the point of killing such a young girl?"
A man dressed as a priest suddenly rushed out of the military camp and rescued the two men from the soldiers.
That person is the director of the orphanage.He is a very kind person.
That was also the first time that Ke'er felt that a person could be so great, and the dean's status in her heart suddenly became extremely great.
But Nia, who was also present that day, didn't see it that way.
Weak girls can often see the other side of people in more detail.
What she saw was the murderous look on the dean's face as he angrily rebuked the officers and soldiers.
And the cold chill beneath the smiles the dean showed when he looked at the two of them...
171.The last days in the orphanage
Later, the two of them learned that the priest who preached in the military camp was a teacher of the most famous state religion in the Magic Kingdom, the "Saint Zorans". The specific beliefs of this church were unknown to Kerr and Nia at the beginning. , but the soldiers in the military camp who were originally pessimistic about the war and even their own lives seemed to have regained their confidence after hearing the dean's preaching, and their attitude towards work became much more positive.
When the dean finished preaching, he returned to the two of them. Nia hid behind Ke'er, while Ke'er looked at the adult in front of him doubtfully. The dean also smiled kindly and stretched out his hand. He rubbed her head.
"My work in the military camp is over, come back with me. Two beautiful girls, I have an orphanage in San Delos that is dedicated to the care of war orphans. The people living there are all like you, who have no choice but to suffer in the war. No one to rely on, I believe you will be able to live happily there."
The director recommended her orphanage to them softly, but it was not mandatory, and then she asked again.
"Or do you have somewhere you want to go?"
Ke'er shook her head like a rattle and said hurriedly: "There is no where else I want to go. I am willing to go to that orphanage with you."
She knew what the orphanage was.
After saying that, she turned around excitedly and looked at Nia, who had been keeping some vigilance behind her, and asked quickly: "Nia, you will go too, right?"
"I..." Nia looked very hesitant.
The dean then said: "Children do not respect national boundaries. Even if they are children from an enemy country, we will help them if they are in trouble."
The implication is of course to leave it alone.
"Look." Ke'er also persuaded with a smile.
Nia hesitated for a long time, but finally agreed.
What Kerr didn't know at that time was that the reason why Nia followed her to the orphanage was simply because she wanted to be with her.
......
Now Kerr can definitely say that her life in the orphanage was one of the best moments in her life so far.
The two of them adapted to life in the orphanage very early. There were many children about their age there, and the ratio of boys to girls was almost the same.
Although there is not much meat to eat in the orphanage, there is indeed no shortage of various protein-rich meals, and they eat not only three meals a day, but four lunches, so that they can still have these. Long-bodied children can have full stomachs.
After getting up in the morning, I go to the hall with other teachers to pray, then teach, and clean together at noon. In the afternoon, I have complete freedom. Sometimes there are even dance parties in the evening, so that some children with acting talents can show off their skills. Or use this opportunity to find a girl you like.
At this young age, having only friends of the same sex cannot fully satisfy everyone's inner needs, and restless hearts long for further contact.
In the past, everyone tended to be conservative in their preferences for the opposite sex, and it was difficult for malnourished orphans to find a few particularly good-looking boys and girls.
But when Kerr and Nia came, the boys' group really became lively. Suddenly Kerr had a large number of suitors. Every day, people put snacks in her shoe cabinet. Some of them would go too far. Her shoes that had only been worn for a few days were stolen. Every time she woke up in the morning and went to the classroom, she looked at the pile of snacks in the shoe cabinet that she had long since eaten and her missing cloth shoes. Ke'er sighed helplessly. Make a sound.
Until one day she couldn't bear it anymore. Her shoes were stolen again, and there were more snacks and love letters than before. The shoe cabinet was like a trash can.
In a fit of anger, she put everything in the bag, came to the classroom barefoot, and walked to the podium before the teacher came, put the bag firmly on the table, and put her right hand He raised his legs and put them on the desk, and then said: "Everyone here, I don't know who stuffs so many things into my shoe cabinet every day. Please, I'm not hungry. I really don't need so many snacks." , you can just eat it yourself, there is no need to give it to me, I won’t eat it.”
"Also, some people are really shameless. Don't you have any shoes of your own? Or are you so stupid that you can't remember the number of your shoe cabinet? Why do you always take my shoes away? This month has already happened. This is the fifth time. Are you comfortable watching me come to school barefoot?"
When she said this, everyone noticed that she came without wearing shoes today.
But even if she walks barefoot, there is still no dust at all on the soles of Ke'er's feet, which is extremely smooth.
She squirted for a long time that day, and some people stared at her little feet on the desk for a long time.
However, the matter of snacks and love letters was resolved, and the boys finally plucked up the courage to tell her that they liked her, but unfortunately they were all rejected.
The reason for Ke'er's refusal is also very simple.
