Teresa won't starve

So in the end, she chose to run away from her sister and hide like an ostrich to escape the reality that she still has to face after all.

"If no one can stop her, let me stop her."

And the way to stop her is-

Karen avoided Theresa's gaze, and glanced vaguely at the red and black pistol pinned to her waist.

It contained a bullet that could kill vampires.

298 "Double Rondo"

After waiting for a while, Teresa didn't hear the following, so she asked, "Is it finished?"

"It's over."

Although there are actually some more in the back, but the difference between talking about it and not talking about it is not big, so Karen simply skipped it.

"Yeah." Teresa nodded: "This story is barely enough."

"After all, it's a story, logic is always a little different from reality."

——It is enough to listen to it as a story.

Karen never thought Teresa would believe it from the beginning.

Because that is too bizarre, too distorted the three views.

When she told a stranger about her life experience, she just treated him as an audience, and she had nothing to do with what the audience thought.

At least after telling such a 'story', Karen seemed to have let go of a lot of burdens, and felt an indescribable relief.

It's just that she didn't expect--

"Don't stories tell logic? Don't look down on stories (novels?), okay?"

——Theresa suddenly became serious.

"I'm not, I'm not..."

what is this?Shoot yourself in the foot?

"You're like this—" Teresa looked at Karen inexplicably angry, but she was really angry but not necessarily.Finally, I thought about it and stopped: "Forget it this time. Next time, if you have something to say, first think about whether it is appropriate in your mind, and then say it, understand?"

"Yes Yes Yes."

She was taught a lesson by a child, which made Karen a little dumbfounded.I can only say 'yes' while nodding like a rattle. (Wait! Doesn't rattle mean head shaking?)

"It's too perfunctory!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

"You guy..."

"Yes Yes Yes."

"..."

Teresa suddenly remembered a sentence: The essence of human beings is a repeater.

......

It seemed that the atmosphere had become quiet again.

Neither of the two parties knew what to say next, they could only look at the stars in the sky under the illumination of the street lamps.

Until the time came to a certain point, the person in charge of the park's power supply equipment pulled the switch, causing the street lights in the park to go out within a few seconds after that, making the originally bright park dark.

It is almost impossible to distinguish people, things, and things with the human naked eye.

Of course, in Teresa's eyes, the difference from the daytime is actually not that big, and she can still see the surroundings clearly. (Note)

But in Kallen's eyes, it looks different——

A humanoid silhouette made up of a large number of blood vessels, the picture looks more uncomfortable than the mannequin in the hospital.Even though it wasn't the first time Karen saw her, it still made her feel very uncomfortable.

Because of this, Karen, who was really sick to her stomach, broke the tranquility: "Aren't you going to go home?"

Originally, Karen thought Teresa would stubbornly answer, 'Don't go home! ', or 'I don't have a home'.

Because during the period of contact, Teresa gave her the impression of a brat who was 'not obedient'.

So it's normal to say something like this.

However, Teresa's answer was——

"Go home?" Teresa thought for a while, not knowing how to describe the place in reality to an NPC in the game: "It's a bit far from where I am now."

In fact, she has never left, and she can even log out of the game and return to reality as soon as she wants.

But that is also equivalent to ending this journey ahead of time, almost no changes to the world, and Karen will not know whether she has returned home.

There is an invisible distance between them, so far beyond the scope of a world.

That's why Teresa's tone sounded a bit strange.

But it also made Kallen misunderstand, thinking that she was——

"That's it."

Karen didn't continue to think about it, but just sent an invitation to Teresa: "Then, do you want to stay at my house temporarily for one night?"

When she said this, Karen even thought that she would be rejected.

After all, let a girl go to a stranger's house for a sleepover or something...

Teresa raised her head, looked at Karen who was still a head taller than herself even if she was sitting, nodded and said, "Isn't your home far from here?"

Although there was no clear answer, Karen knew that this was actually a promise.

So he said:

"It's a little far away...how about I carry you back?"

"Hug?" Teresa suddenly thought of a possibility: "Princess hug?"

"Hmm." Kallen didn't find the problem at all: "Is there any problem?"

"Forgive me for refusing!"

"why?"

"No reason! It just doesn't work!"

Facing Teresa who was resolutely uncooperative and refused to answer the question correctly, Karen had no choice but to turn her back to her: "Then I'll carry you."

He also stretched out a hand to put Teresa's hand on his shoulder, so that Teresa could not find where she was because it was 'too dark to see'.

"..."

After hesitating for a while, Teresa climbed onto Karen's back.Put your arms around Karen's neck, and hang your body on the other's shoulders.

Kallen hugged Teresa's legs with both hands, so that her hands would not be able to bear the weight of her body and fall.But it also allowed Teresa's weight to be completely added to Karen's body.

However, the weight of tens of kilograms in this area is basically nothing to Karen.

"You are so light! Don't you usually eat well?"

"I want you to take care of it?"

"Fine, fine, I don't care, that's fine."

299 "The night will pass"

In fact, Karen's temporary residence is not too far from the park.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be wandering around the park often.

It's just that Karen would say this, and one of the reasons is that she was afraid of falling asleep on the road. After all, children's biological clocks are much more punctual than adults.

Another reason is simply that the road is not easy to walk, and Teresa, who can't see anything, may accidentally trip over it.At that time, it's okay to ask her to help her up, but what should I do if I feel injured and cry in pain? (Note)

Kallen doesn't know how to comfort people.

of course.

If there is a third reason, it is to carry Teresa on her back.Because when the child fainted before, Karen carried it back like this.

Carrying Teresa now gave her the illusion that 'that child is by her side', and an indescribable peace of mind filled her heart.

......

"correct."

"what?"

When passing by a Humu fast food, I looked at the newly made burgers inside.Karen suddenly felt a little hungry, so she suggested to Teresa behind her, "Have you had dinner tonight? Do you want to go eat something together?"

"You want to eat it?"

Teresa saw through her thoughts at a glance.

The ancestral foodie of the Kaslana family...

"Hehe." The exposed Karen smiled awkwardly, and didn't continue to hide it: "I want to eat, I'm a little hungry."

"Why do you want to eat and ask me? Just decide for yourself?"

"Because—" Karen thought of a program called "The Lonely Gourmet".But when she went to eat alone, not only did she not feel that the food became delicious, but she felt: "Eating alone will feel very lonely. So I have to ask you, would you like to eat with me?"

Teresa looked at the white cheeks in front of her eyes, and looked at the unstoppable loneliness on her face, and she couldn't say no: "Then go eat, anyway, there is nothing else to do. "

"Eh? Sounds like a forced look?"

"It's fine if you don't want to!"

"I see."

Karen quickly accepted it as soon as she saw it, and didn't dare to continue bickering with Teresa.

......

Entered this 24 hour Homo fast food restaurant.

It may be because there were no people around midnight, and there were a lot of vacancies for guests to rest and dine; Karen just randomly chose a seat by the window and put Teresa down.

I went to order a few houm burgers and a children's set meal.

Originally, I had to take Teresa to measure her height. After all, there is a height requirement for children's meals.But it may be that the waiter has better eyesight, and he can tell at a glance that Teresa is not 1.5 meters (note), which saves the process of measuring her height.

Putting the hamburger and the children's set meal on the dinner plate, so that they would not fall when walking past, Karen returned to the previously chosen dining place as steadily as possible, and pushed the children's set meal belonging to Teresa away. After that, the meal began.

"It tastes really bad."

Kallen, who was talking like this, added another sentence in her heart for no reason: it is not as delicious as the rice balls made by Sakura. (Note)

Like the mouth of an abyss (Note), Karen, who can eat a hamburger in three or two bites, suddenly noticed Teresa's strange behavior after eating a few.

She actually used a knife and fork to scrape off the white sauce in the burger before eating the burger again.

—Are you a picky eater?

Karen has seen people who don't like green peppers, tomatoes, onions and other vegetables in it, and people who just don't like hamburger meat, but she has never met anyone who doesn't like white sauce.

Is this food hard to eat? (Note)

Maybe Karen's gaze was too 'aggressive', and Teresa couldn't pay attention to it, so she raised her head and explained: "I don't hate white sauce, but I don't like eating it with hamburgers .”

In fact, it is true that Teresa did not throw away the scraped white sauce, but added it to other dishes.

"You don't need to explain, self-willedness is a girl's privilege."

In fact, the original sentence should be "willful and picky eaters are the privilege of children", but I was afraid that saying this would make Teresa angry (Note), so I had to change it to another statement.

Teresa squinted at Karen with her mouth curled up, but did not answer.

......

After eating, Karen continued to carry Teresa back.

What?Bill, please?

Isn't it common sense for fast food restaurants to pay first and then pick up?

......
