The next day.
During the winter vacation, the entire Mystic Guild base was in carnival. Electronic fireworks began to be set off outside in broad daylight, and the sky was full of fireworks projections with realistic sound effects.
There were people dragging their little crafts to say goodbye everywhere.
"Let's go! See you in the new year~"
"See you in the next year~"
"Remember to call when you get home tonight!"
"I know! I'm so verbose!"
"Hey! Remember to bring me specialties from the border town when you come back. If you don't bring them to me, I'll just call my aunt to send them!"
"Okay! If anyone is missing, yours will not be missing, you are a pig!"
At the entrance of the guild's base, there were family members who came to pick them up.
It started to get lively and noisy early in the morning.
Josh didn't tell anyone else that she was going to stay at the base, otherwise they would think she was pitiful and have to take her home for the New Year.
She needs the aura of Bourne City.
So she pretended to go downstairs and pack her things.
Luo Bu and Yu Shi had already packed up and were jostling and fighting in the dining area on the first floor.
Josh walked down and saw Yu Ze.
There was nothing around him, no luggage.
Josh said in surprise: "Captain, aren't you going home?"
There was a thump in her heart, with an inexplicable and vague expectation.
Before Yuze could say anything, Rob next to him said first, "He must be back, otherwise the Duchess and the General will send troops to arrest him."
Yushi also nodded and added: "He doesn't need luggage, he has everything at home!"
Josh nodded understandingly.
Yuze glanced at them funny: "You are the only ones who talk a lot."
He looked at Josh: "You want to go home for the New Year too?"
Josh nodded quickly: "Yes, I want to go back. If I don't go home, where will I go to celebrate the New Year?"
Yu Ze wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Rob next to him: "Josh! Call me when you get home. If someone bullies you, I will fly over with Yu Shi and Jiang Shen to help you fight!"
Josh burst out laughing and asked strangely: "Are you two celebrating the New Year in the same place?"
Rob nodded with a smile: "Yes, Yushi, Jiang Shen, I, and I are all homeless orphans. Coach Ma Qi happens to have no children, so he just takes us home for the New Year every year~"
Josh nodded clearly: "Very good, then be careful on the road."
Yushi nodded seriously: "You too, be careful!"
Yuze didn't like this kind of scene and waved to a few people: "I'm leaving, you can do whatever you want."
Several people nodded.
Yu Ze's dark eyes swept around the people, and finally landed on Josh, and suddenly asked: "Do you want to go home with me to celebrate the New Year?"
"Huh??" Yushi and Rob's eyes lit up instantly, and they looked here at the same time.
Even Madge and Joyce, who were having breakfast in the dining area, pricked their ears and looked over.
Yu Ze is a shameless person, but today he felt guilty and embarrassed for no reason. He cleared his throat: "What about that? My mother likes you very much. She asked me to ask."
Josh smiled and waved his hand: "No, let's see you after the new year."
Yuzawa looked at her. She was wearing a furry sweatshirt and a small skirt today, with her hair hanging down smoothly, like a furry little animal.
The little paw waved in front of the chest, as cute as a child.
If he encounters a pervert like Turbine who picks him up and runs away, it's unclear whether his mentor Xiao An will come back after the year.
He felt a little uneasy for no reason, and suddenly said: "You still don't know how to fly a spaceship, right? Should I take you back to Gran'er City?"
"No!" Josh refused without thinking. The reaction was so great that several people looked in her direction.
She said with a sneer: "No need really, what? Your mighty general is too flamboyant. He has to be watched by the whole city when he drives to Gran'er City. I don't want to be so high-profile. Besides, I can go back by myself, He's not a kid anymore, why? He needs to be taken home by school bus after leaving kindergarten? Isn't that childish!"
Yuzawa couldn't help but be happy: "You do seem to be someone who needs a school bus to pick you up."
Josh's mouth twitched slightly, and he pretended to be impatient and pushed him out: "You should leave quickly! Stop being annoying, you grinder!"
Yuze glanced at the little man behind him with a smile.
The strength was so small that it was like a kitten pressing down on him, which made him feel itchy.
He cleared his throat: "Okay, I'll go then."
The mighty general stopped at the door of Mansion No. 1.
He looked at Josh: "Text me when you get home."
Josh nodded: "Okay."
So good.
The little glutinous rice dumplings he raised with his own hands are white, tender, juicy and juicy, and they look so well-behaved when they stare at people.
It’s much better than when I first arrived, when I was malnourished and skinny and sallow.
Yuzawa's heart softened and he rubbed her head, his gaze falling on her eyes as clear as glass beads: "Is there anything you want to eat? I'll bring it to you after the new year."
Josh thought about it seriously: "No."
Yu Ze laughed and shook his head: "Okay, I got it."
Bring a little of everything.
The mighty general carried Yu Ze and quickly disappeared over the mansion.
The electronic fireworks outside were still blooming, and the entire sky was occupied by colorful fireworks.
Josh stood at the door and sent everyone in Mansion No. 1 away before returning to the room.
The lively venue suddenly became deserted.
Josh took a deep breath and turned back to the room.
There are fewer and fewer farewell sounds outside, and the sound of the spacecraft starting up slowly disappears.
The entire base fell silent.
Josh looked at the empty room blankly and touched his chest.
She originally wanted to stay in the city of Bourne to practice, but now she got what she wanted. Before she could be happy, her chest felt tight and swollen, as if a big stone had been pressed against her.
Josh put this all down to not being used to it.
She took a deep breath, turned around and entered the bathroom with clean pajamas, took a good bath, washed her hair, and put on pajamas full of sunshine smell.
After doing all this, she sat cross-legged on the balcony, but she couldn't calm down to practice.
"what happened?"
Josh bulged his mouth, stared at his hands holding his breath, and went to the kitchen downstairs to find food.
The refrigerator was empty and there was nothing edible in the kitchen.
She was silent for a moment, then turned and went upstairs to her room.
It's the New Year, and Shimen isn't around, so what kind of New Year is she celebrating?
Josh lay on the balcony railing, staring at the sky outside in a daze.
In the past, when the masters celebrated the New Year together, it was very lively.
Master and senior sisters like to buy her new clothes, tie her hair in pigtails, and dress her up beautifully.
Senior brother likes to take her to the back mountains to catch spiritual pigs. He kills one every year.
The pigs in the back mountains are the hardest to catch!
Every time she was in such a mess, her beautiful clothes and pigtails were all dirty.
But it doesn't matter, the senior brother is always the one who gets scolded anyway.
During the New Year's Eve dinner, the entire school ate together.
At noon, the whole sect had a big banquet together. In the evening, the outer sect disciples had a bonfire party and played by themselves. The inner sect disciples accompanied their master and disciples to have dinner on their respective peaks.
This is Josh’s favorite part because he gets lucky money!
The senior brothers and sisters perform a show every year, which is called the "High-end version of the Spring Festival Gala in the world of immortality". The only audience in the audience is Master and her.
It took until late at night for the commotion to slowly subside.
Josh looked blankly at the sky that had turned dark at some point. She couldn't find a reason to stay.
The school is her home, and she always wants to go home.
The Federation world is where she comes from, but it is not her home. She has no sense of belonging here...
See, on a festival like this, everyone has somewhere to go, and no one can take her in.
That home was not her home, it was Susanna's home.
Josh sighed quietly. He obviously chose to stay in Bourne City secretly. What's so pretentious...
She stared at the stars and thought.
"Josh? Why haven't you gone home yet?" Yuze's voice suddenly sounded.
Josh suddenly straightened his back, was she hallucinating?
A mighty General fell from the sky and hovered in front of her balcony.
Yuze's familiar handsome face stretched out from the car window, his dark eyes looking at her for a moment.
