The Secret Code of Monsters

Chapter 51 Ch.51 Friendship

Roland really didn't want to mention what happened before.

Whenever he thought about it, he always felt that there was a strange smell on his body.

He sent Randolph off with kind words and promised to visit him after he recovered from his injury. Then, the nun who checked Roland's wounds also left.

Fernandez looked at Cherry and then at Roland.

"...I went out to smoke."

"I've known for a long time that this man is sensible!"

-

What inappropriate relationship could I have with Cherry?

Wrench didn't answer.

He drew a smiley face in Roland's sight.

「(~￣ v￣~)」

"Are you okay, Roland?"

As soon as Fernandez left, Cherry immediately lost her face and lost all energy.

She pulled the small stool and sat on it without courtesy. Like Randolph, she also grabbed Roland's hand.

"I'm so worried about you!"

The white powder on her face was much thicker than before - even so, it was difficult to modify the drooped corners of her eyes and the bloodshot eyes in her red eyes.

It seemed like she hadn't had a good rest for a long time.

"What is wrong with the world that the job of an executive is so dangerous?"

Roland comforted her softly.

After a while, the woman was comforted... and cried.

"...I didn't know! He could actually abandon me!"

It's Minsi Chloe.

"...His little friends have long been bribed by him and spread rumors everywhere - it's not that he abandoned me, but that I have been bewitched for a long time. The evil disciples favored me, and I also seduced..."

She pursed her lips, but in the end, she couldn't say those two words.

Slut.

Tears flowed into two deep ravines on her face.

"How could my life be so miserable? I--wait a minute, Roland."

She was crying and suddenly stopped sobbing. She got up and went to the door to get a brown paper bag and took out a small packet of snacks tied with oil paper string.

In addition, there is a small hand mirror and a box of powder.

She started fixing her makeup in the mirror.

Roland:......

The woman with wet tears in the corners of her eyes found that the young man on the hospital bed was confused, and he turned his head to the side and searched with his ears. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and laugh:

"Women should remain elegant and decent at all times...how do you know our secrets?"

"Then you asked your servant to cry just now."

"The servant can't come in. You, stop teasing me, I just finished repairing this place..."

Cherry rolled her eyes at him.

This married lady often shows off some girlish behavior when getting along with Roland - when a lady thinks she doesn't need to be dignified, she must have a thousand ways to become charming.

Especially when facing someone they want to face.

"I'm getting old if you give me random compliments."

Cherry Chloe snapped the mirror shut, raised her hand regretfully, stared at the back of it and lamented.

"It used to be like milk, soft and delicate. Now, it has wrinkles..."

"Theoretically, if there are no wrinkles in the skin, the fingers cannot be bent."

-

Theoretically, you could stay silent for a little longer.

Roland didn't think Cherry Chloe was old, but thought she was particularly young and lively when he got along with her.

"I'm twenty-eight years old, Roland."

Cherry Chloe sighed: "My youth has left me long ago."

Roland shook his head slightly: "They praise your beauty as an angel who fell from the sky to the mortal world, and your wisdom is comparable to the most knowledgeable scholar in the church."

Cherry smiled carelessly, fanned her eyelashes, and her eyes were keen to understand the world: "It is the land of my family that decorates my cheeks, and the abundant treasury adds to my wisdom. Roland, I talk less and live more than you." It’s been ten years.”

"That won't fool me."

Roland pretended to be sad: "Yes, it was Roland Collins who broke the dam in your eyes."

"Okay, you golden-eyed bad boy, have you learned to tease me?"

The two of them started talking about everything -

Just like before the injury.

I don't know since when, when he and Cherry Chloe were alone, they always seemed to be able to chat for a long time without getting bored.

She told him many 'little tricks' that he had never heard of, which he had learned from his father.

banker's tactics.

What an eye-opener.

"I don't understand your church, and you don't understand us either..." At this point, Cherry thought of her husband again.

The atmosphere became dull for a moment.

"You still can't get enough rest?" Roland asked softly.

"The sound keeps coming." Cherry clenched her hands subconsciously, with restlessness in her eyes: "I haven't rested for a long time... Roland. I don't know what's going on. Could it be that someone cursed me?"

"I suggest you find a doctor and take a good look at it."

"That's what he said too..." Cherry Chloe sighed: "You won't let me in here. Today is a special case. I will never be able to come in again. If I ask you something at the last minute - no, don't let me in." The older friend introduced me to him, and he had a scary look in his eyes.”

Roland thought about Fernandez's stern face to outsiders and suggested, "You can write to me."

The woman curled her lips: "You can't see."

Roland was mysterious: "There are always special ways... We know a lot of tricks."

Cherry stretched out her finger and pressed Roland's brow affectionately, rubbing it twice with her fingertips: "You are not allowed to do anything dangerous, you must take good care of your injuries... I heard that many people were injured. A few days ago, Mingsi and I stayed in the police station for half a day. They were all rude and immoral..."

She saw Roland's confusion and explained: "Yes, you, you have been in a coma for three days."

The answer to what happened still needs to be obtained from Fernandez.

Roland wanted to stretch his waist, but was stopped by Cherie with a look of horror.

"Don't get up! You can't move around!"

She pushed him back to the bed, unwrapped the oil paper bag, pinched out the small biscuits inside, and fed them to Roland one by one.

"... I asked someone to make it new... Yes, take a big bite."

One piece.

"Another... another piece. Yes... great..."

Another piece.

She narrowed her eyes into two slits, looking at the person on the bed, looking at his bulging mouth, her mood suddenly became much better.

This reminded her of the scene of feeding cats when she was a child.

So cute.

"I doubt whether they can feed you enough."

She complained while feeding the cat: "... The walls are so bare, and the bed is hard. There is not even a good fireplace, and there is no decoration in the corners and empty places. How can you recover better if you are in a bad mood and bad spirit?"

She began to nag and accuse, as if "if she hadn't been forbidden, she would have taken Roland to other good places for treatment."

"By the way, I heard."

"You only get one pound a week?"

Roland swallowed the shortbread in his mouth and answered honestly: "I am a reserve executive, ma'am."

Cherry's eyebrows were about to stand up: "One! Just one life!"

"I am a believer, and I admit that the church does a good job most of the time - but with such a small amount of money, Roland, they are really stingy. In my opinion, if it weren't for ten... twenty pounds! I would never let the young man around me come here to fight!"

Roland listened seriously.

In fact, when he was in Falkshire, he had seen Mr. Abner doing "business" quite often.

A boy with good teeth, no serious problems, and good legs and feet would only pay two or three pounds - note, it is paying, not receiving.

But if he was pretty and docile, he could get some money back:

He would first compensate the adopter a few dollars according to the rules and regulations (Roland guessed there must be some), and then the other party would privately return something of equal value (or several times).

This was the case with Notty Golden Lamp, who Roland almost fell into.

According to what he heard at the time, Notty Golden Lamp was very happy to adopt him and even visited him several times for this purpose.

Director Abner was really happy for several days.
