Teresa won't starve

Although I don't hate her like this, for some reason, Teresa still likes her before: "You seem to be not as sensible as before."

"Hey hey!" Natasha put down the comb, walked over and poked Teresa's temple with her finger: "What do you mean by being sensible? Why are you still using the tone of an elder? Are you pretending to be mature?"

"I'm older than you, do you still need to pretend to be mature?"

"I said that just to tell you that there is such a thing, don't take it seriously!"

......

After arguing with each other for a while, Natasha asked Teresa to lie down on the bed, and she lay down beside her.

Stretching out his hand to caress her smooth side face:

"Sleep if you're sleepy. I'll wake you up when it's time for dinner."

"How can I sleep like this?"

Teresa pushed her offending hand away, and turned to face Natasha's profile.

They looked at each other's eyes for a while.

Natasha turned her head so that the two sides could look at each other: "Theresa, I remember reading from a book that the pupils of human beings should always be black. Why are you like this?"

"Because Lil..." Teresa stopped when she was about to say that name—although she mentioned it more than once, Natasha didn't believe it even once, so she turned around. Another description that is easier to understand is used: "I am a sequela of being eroded by Houkai energy."

Natasha didn't ask Lil anything, she could have guessed it anyway.

It's just that she thought it should be Teresa's secondary name, so she just skipped it and just listened to the following: "Is there no way to cure it?"

"It's not a disease, what is the cure?"

What's more, if the Herrscher is sick, who else in this world can cure him?

"Ok."

Natasha also knew that it was not a disease that Honkai could erode, so she just asked more with expectation.

But obviously some things don't get answered just by asking.

588 "Don't say spoiling things to girls"

Forget it, forget about those!

Natasha put her arm through the gap between Teresa's neck and shoulders, letting Teresa rest on her arm, and at the same time let her move closer to her: "Go to sleep."

"I am not sleepy......"

"But it's boring, right? Go to sleep and save the fun stuff for later."

"......All right."

Teresa agreed after thinking for a while.

Close your eyes, rest your head on Natasha's arm, and breathe slowly and slowly.

When she was sure that she was completely asleep, Natasha turned her body around and pulled herself closer to Theresa, so close that the tips of their noses almost touched each other.

It just happened to be like this, and Natasha shrank her head slightly, making herself a little shorter, so that she could gradually approach——

......

......

......

......

a few days later.

When the snow melted and the muddy soil was shoveled away to reveal a hard, dry, but slippery lower layer, the children were allowed to let the wind out in the once-a-year weather.

Although with the growth of age, some children have been allowed to travel in the cold winter in time;

But people like Natasha and the twins who are already in poor health, or people like Iselin who have been lack of exercise for a long time, resulting in extremely poor immunity.

You can only wait until this time of year to be allowed to go out.

of course.

Natasha only went out for the first time this year, today, and at this time. In the past, this season had nothing to do with her.

But even so, even if it was only for a short hour, Natasha still showed great enthusiasm for the first time in her life.

Sniffing the still damp and cold air, even though she couldn't help coughing due to excessive breathing, Natasha was still taking deep breaths.

It wasn't until Teresa came to stop her that she stopped: "I said it's almost over, and it's not good for your health if you continue."

"I, cough, cough... I know! But... I can't help but..."

Of course Natasha knew it was wrong to do this all the time, but she really liked this feeling so much.

So much so that he obviously started to feel a little uncomfortable, but he continued to breathe in the cold air very addictively.

As a last resort, Teresa could only warn her: "If you get sick because of this, don't say that you may not be able to come out tomorrow or even next year."

"--Oh."

Natasha, who was inexplicably excited at first, lost most of her enthusiasm in an instant after hearing Teresa's words, and then changed to give up the behavior of continuing to hurt herself.

But soon, Natasha regained her mood, her purple eyes seemed to be shining, looking at this pine forest that even a little squirrel couldn't find, as if there was some untapped treasure inside.

In fact, she really thought so: "Let's go, while there is still time, let's do something interesting together."

"and many more!"

Being dragged away by Natasha, Teresa was about to walk into the woods, but suddenly remembered Cocolia's previous explanation: "I remember you can't leave the vicinity of the orphanage, right?"

"..."

The smile on Natasha's face immediately collapsed.

That's right, if Teresa hadn't mentioned it, she would have forgotten Cocolia's advice.

Because of this, he looked at Teresa full of resentment, and looked at Teresa with chills all over her body.

589 "A More Important Choice"

"Why do you look like a female ghost?"

Teresa was known to be afraid of ghosts.

So after being stared at by Natasha for a while, Teresa had to think of a reason to divert Natasha's attention: "By the way, have you seen where Xier is? Let's go and play with Xier." Bar?"

"Xi'er..."

Natasha just looked at her for a while longer, full of deep meaning, for this girl who kept her words inseparable from Xier; then she nodded and led Teresa to the other side of the orphanage, which happened to be blocked. A location out of sight.

......

the other side.

Knowing that there was an entrance to the Orphanage, Xi'er took Bronya to the depths of Shunlin at this moment, as if she was deliberately avoiding someone.

After Bronya followed for a while without knowing it, she couldn't help but stop her: "Xie'er!"

"?"

Seele, who was walking in the depths while walking, came back to her senses after hearing Bronya's voice, and looked at her: "What's wrong? Sister Bronya?"

"It's time for us to go back." Bronya flicked the single turbo on the back of her head, and looked at the faintly visible silhouette behind her: "It's a little far away here."

Well, today's hairstyle is a way for her to try to make some changes.

"Eh?"

Xi'er didn't notice until this time, but she had already walked a long way without knowing it.

Fortunately, the outline of the orphanage can still be seen from here, so it won't make her get lost as easily as Theresa.So he nodded in favor of Bronya's suggestion and started walking in the direction of going back.

It's just that as soon as Xi'er raised her foot, she felt that her left foot was caught by something; she lowered her head and wanted to get the branch off, or something else.

As a result, she looked down and she was startled.

I saw that it turned out to be a human hand!

Only the part above the wrist was exposed, the right hand of a woman with a pale complexion.

Of course, this scene was also seen by Bronya, and she even recognized the strange complexion, which was almost exactly the same as her own skin after being eroded by the Honkai Energy for a short time.

But Bronya didn't think too much about it, she squatted down and tried to break the hand away.

But soon she discovered that this hand was extremely strong, and she couldn't even separate it from Xi'er's ankle?

After seeing this situation, Bronya immediately made a decision: "Xie'er, close your eyes."

"!?"

Seele didn't understand what Bronya wanted to do, but she closed her eyes obediently.

Only then did Bronya pull out the dagger that was tied to her thigh, and slashed hard at the joint of the wrist bone of this hand; If you come out, you can't go in.

But this was expected a long time ago, and Bronya was not surprised.

Because according to the normal situation, it would be easier to cut off a human hand bone with a dagger, and it would be easier to break it first - just cut it directly, and it would be very face-saving not to curl the blade. (Note)

It's just that the current situation does not allow this, and Bronya can only cut it off bit by bit with brute force.

Hope nothing happens.

......

Back to the orphanage.

Teresa and Natasha greeted everyone one after another, but they didn't see Seele and Bronya alone, and they didn't know where they were going when they asked others.

This made Natasha very worried.

As for Teresa—

Because of the support of costume special effects, she could clearly sense Xier's physical condition and the general direction of her location, but she didn't seem to care much about it.

But Natasha only pretended that she was very anxious, so she urged her, "Go to Seele first! I can take care of myself!"

"But I have to take care of you."

"Oh! How old am I, and I still need you to look after me? Hurry up! Xier needs you more now!"

Natasha's tone was full of helplessness.

Almost exactly the same as every girl who doesn't want to be treated as a child.

As she said that, she also took the initiative to let go of her hand, pushing Teresa out, and she took a few steps back, creating a little distance.

"Then you don't need me?"

"Don't say such strange words! Let's go! Don't make Xi'er wait too long!" Natasha said here, as if giving her a comforting look, tilting her head and smiling at her: "Aren't you coming back anyway?" ? It’s not like we’ll never see each other again in the future!”

"..."

Teresa looked at Natasha without saying a word, and Natasha was inexplicable.

"What's wrong with you? Go! Don't just stand there in a daze!"

"I......"

Teresa couldn't explain why, she just didn't want to leave, or she didn't want to be separated from Natasha, so she came over and held Natasha's hand: "Let's go together."

"Didling...are you a child?" Natasha smiled and took Teresa's hand off: "You have grown up! It's time to learn to be independent! Don't seem to leave I just can't live!"

Pushing Teresa a few steps forward again: "Be brave and move forward."

"..."

After Teresa was forced to take a few steps, she felt the strength on her shoulders disappear.Looking back again, Natasha had a smile on her face.

That smiling face is as beautiful as the afternoon sun.

590 "The Not Alone Wolf"

What are these! ?

Bronya raised her right arm to the side, covering Xier's slow retreat.Although she tried not to show it, her slightly disordered breathing revealed the fact that she was very nervous.
