"Oh, my dear," Alice walked down the street, drooping her shoulders. "I missed the guests. I''m really a bad maid..."
I don''t know whether it''s to increase the difficulty of enemy attack, to promote commercial prosperity or other reasons. The mountain roads in this city are not the ones that lead directly to colleges. However, every time you climb to a big step with a street, you have to walk along the street for a period of time to find the ladder leading to the next big step.
However, this practice is only for those who are not familiar with the terrain or outsiders.
In many alleys, there are various emergency ladders or aisles that can be quickly up and down. In order to get to the guests as soon as possible to complete the director''s orders, Alice used her frequent shopping and was very familiar with the terrain. From these shortcuts, she rushed to the foot of the mountain as quickly as possible.
As a result, when she finally arrived, she was told by the mage who stayed on the magic ship that Mrs. Sharon and her party had left.
"Why does little Alice feel so listless?" As the girl was walking down the street dejectedly thinking about what to do next, the aunt in the small shop she used to patronize on the street said to her: "here are some new fried meat cakes, take some to eat."
"Ah? But I don''t have any money with me... " Alice said with some embarrassment.
"It''s OK. Just remember to patronize our shop a lot in the future." "And we don''t want to see little Alice face bitter, oh, hurry up!" she said with a gentle smile
"Well, thank you, auntie." Seeing the concerned faces in the shops around her, Alice felt warm and could not help smiling. She took the paper bag from her aunt and bowed to them. Then she got up and ran to the next step.
Since I missed them at the beginning, I just need to go outside the college and wait for them to come?
It''s a little rude, but it''s better than keeping the guests waiting.
At least that''s what Alice thinks.
But she stopped running up the steps.
In the street not far from her, a little girl with a small mage''s robe and silver hair was looking around in distress.
Although Alice did not dare to say that she knew all the students in the college, she could not have any impression of such a conspicuous little fellow. In other words, the other person is definitely not a student of the college.
So is it a little girl who lost her way with her adult or lost her way?
Obviously, I should not meddle in my business now. Before the guests arrive outside the college, I have to wait there earlier.
But
Looking at the poor, silver haired girl who looked eight or nine years old over there, Alice bit her lip, and then, as if she had decided something, walked up quickly without confusion.
"Little sister, are you lost?" She spoke to the little girl who was alone.
However, the little girl with silver hair did not answer. Instead, she stepped back like a shy kitten, showing a very alert look.
Alice scratched her cheek with a wry smile, and then suddenly remembered that she had a paper bag in her hand.
"Don''t be afraid, big sister will invite you to eat fried meat cake." so she opened the paper bag and seduced the little girl with the smell of meat.
"Sylvie said You can''t eat from strangers. " The little girl stares at Alice with an expressionless expression, but her spitting is not hidden from Alice''s eyes.
Huhuhuhu ~ Auntie Miya''s fried meat cake is a delicacy of delicacy level. Please put down your vigilance and come here!
Alice added, unconsciously, in a peddler''s voice, and continued to smile kindly, saying, "well, my name''s Alice. Alice bennings, how about you?"
"Theo scange." The little girl seemed to be a little relieved by the wonderful smell of the fried meat pie and replied in a low voice.
"Well, then we''re not strangers, are we, Theo?" Alice looked at the lovely way the little girl was swallowing her saliva, and smiling, she handed the paper bag to theo.
Theo hesitated for a moment and finally picked up the paper bag.
But she was not in a hurry to eat the burrito, but asked Alice strangely, "why?"
Although Theo''s words were at first unintelligible, Alice understood what she meant - why did she come and talk to her.
While bemoaning the growing vigilance of children recently, Alice also said with some embarrassment: "because I feel that you are very distressed here alone I don''t think there''s any reason to help others? "
Theo looked at Alice''s face for a long time. When the latter was not comfortable, she lowered her head and nibbled at the patty.
"Delicious."
"Right, right?" though Theo''s voice was so low that she would be ignored if she didn''t pay attention, Alice caught it carefully and her smile became more and more brilliant: "Auntie Mia''s craftsmanship is absolutely trustworthy."Theo took another bite of the patty, then looked up at Alice, and then whispered, "I''m lost with seavy."
Sylvie? This child also mentioned this name just now, should be her guardian The elder brother doesn''t sound like a man''s first name? No, it''s not right. I always think that Theo''s attitude is a little strange
Alice''s brain didn''t seem to be able to sort out too complicated information, and soon she was a little confused.
So she decided to solve the problem in a more direct way.
"All in all, let''s find Sylvie together." She touched Theo''s little head. "You must want to see him, too, don''t you?"
The little girl nodded, then thought for a moment, and went on, "and Eliza."
There is a new name. It should be a girl''s name.
In other words, is it a man and a woman this time?
"Well, I see." Alice patted her bulging breasts and said to Theo confidently, "take it easy. It''s like my home. You can find Sylvia and Eliza for you."
“…… Yes The little girl finally nodded and held out her greasy hand to Alice.
Then two girls, one big and one small, looked for people around the street like that.
Tens of minutes later -
"Theo SIVI hugged the little girl: "where have you been? I''m so worried about it!"
After all, it was he who brought Theo out of noegg and promised that if something happened to the little girl, he would feel guilty all his life.
Eliza looked at Theo with envious eyes and kept saying, "just come back.".
"Sylvie I''m sorry. " Theo apologized softly, and then, as if she had thought of something, she pulled it out of Sylvie''s arms and pointed to Alice, who was standing by smiling at them. "Alice, help me find you."
Sylvie looked up at the girl in the maid''s dress. Though he didn''t know the identity of the other girl, he was afraid that she had done a lot of work from what Theo said.
So he also very simply thanks: "thank you very much for your help." He also plans to take out a few gold coins as a reward.
But Alice waved her hand in a hurry. "No, I''m just doing what I want to do."
With that, the girl''s face suddenly became a little ugly. Now it suddenly occurred to her that she had nothing to do.
"What''s the matter?" Asked seavy curiously.
"I''m sorry. I have something urgent to do. I have to go now." Before Sylvie asked why, Alice ran away.
"The badge on that girl..." From the beginning, she didn''t speak. She just stood not far away and looked at Yvonne and their Evangeline. Looking at Alice''s running direction, she said thoughtfully, "the decoration on it should be the emblem of Huolian National Academy of magic?"
"That''s right." Mrs. Sharon nodded. "It looks like we''ll see that nice kid again soon."
"Thank you very much then." Sylvie put half of his wallet back in the bronze locker.
And then go on to the college with the people
