Xiaohei?
Before Chris could react, there was movement from the ground beside his feet, which startled him.
I saw a little wolf with jet black fur walking leisurely past him, and then headed towards the two girls opposite.
"Hmm...that's it, okay...I know."
Chris only saw Vivian bending down to pick up the little black wolf, and the little girl kept nodding.
It seems that he can communicate with this little black wolf in a way that ordinary people cannot detect.
Soon, Vivian showed an understanding expression, and then focused her attention on Chris again.
"Thank you, Chris, Xiao Hei told me. It turns out...the people behind Gis are all yours, and you are willing to take care of and adopt him temporarily. Phew...that makes me feel more at ease." .”
Um! ?
When did that little black wolf appear? How could he know so much? Why didn't he notice it at all?
Chris was a little confused, but soon all his doubts were covered by the smile of Vivian opposite him.
"No, don't say that to Vivian. If you really want to thank me, I should thank you."
In the past, most of Chris' affection for the little girl came from admiration and some kind of affection.
But now, in this good feeling, there is a little more heartfelt gratitude.
"Actually... I have been an orphan since I was a child. In order to survive, I have been struggling to survive. Although I gradually relied on luck and hard work to get where I am today, I also found that I seemed to have forgotten something very important. Original intention.”
"The reason why I gathered everyone together in the first place was because we are all poor people. Only by uniting can we change the status quo. But slowly, as our power grew bigger and bigger, I only thought about myself. I even said, Treat these brothers who follow me and trust me as bargaining chips and steps for me to be favored by the stolen treasure group."
"If Vivian hadn't asked me to come out of the city and tell me that it's not too late to be a good person again, I might still have lost my way and fallen deeper and deeper, even though the conditions outside the city are more difficult. A lot, but I feel that I have regained the feeling I had at the beginning, the feeling that everyone was united and resisted fate together!"
What Chris said is true.
Without Vivian's influence, in the original game plot, Chris did choose the latter between his brothers and the opportunity to join the treasure thief group, and he sank in for a long time, until one day, the treasure thief group's The devil's claws reached out to his former brother who had struggled to support him after losing Chris. It was not until irreparable consequences occurred that Chris finally woke up.
This may be because before becoming the protagonist, everyone is destined to experience the so-called "sharp change of growth".
After Chris said these heart-wrenching words, he probably felt ashamed. After saying, "In short, he will definitely work with Vivian to help everyone in the refugee gathering place," he quickly left with his people as if running away. .
Looking at the back of this little gangster, Liao Zixuan didn't know whether he was doing Chris a favor or a bad thing, because sometimes, helping him change his path and avoid the original suffering was really a big deal. Is it a good thing?
Or...
Is it the Vulcan's phrase "destiny is ordained"?
Just think of it as an experiment.
Liao Zixuan will wait and see.
"Let's go too, Alina, it's time to..."
"Get ready for the evening."
The light of teleportation magic rose under Vivian's feet. Since the little girl first entered Fire Code City and learned it from Damir, she is now able to use it flexibly.
This is growth.
Of course, Vivian has grown much more than she did in the beginning.
There are currently no spare rooms for the little girls in the refugee gathering place, so they temporarily rented a temporary residence in a place far outside the outer city.
Some basic daily necessities have been delivered by someone. It is worth noting that in addition, there are also some items that are very rare, at least for Vivian.
"Alina, I, I'm not very good at using these, can you please help me?"
In front of the dressing table.
After putting on the dress that Liz had given her, Vivian looked at the things called "cosmetics" that she had specially borrowed from Liz.
This is the rare item mentioned before.
Vivian actually doesn't like these very much. As for arriving, it can be said that she is a bit resistant.
Smear a lot of messy stuff on your face, and then you can become more beautiful and radiant.
It can also be said that it is more in line with the aesthetics of the upper-class aristocracy.
"Eh? Vivian, you..." Sure enough, even Alina was a little surprised to see Vivian actually using cosmetics.
The little maid clearly remembered that when the two met for the first time, she also asked Vivian to try these things, but the little girl's refusal was obvious at that time.
There are indeed a small number of people who hate having things applied to their face because it makes them feel uncomfortable.
Moreover, no matter how you look at the words Vivian and cosmetics, they don’t match at all, right?
"Well, because I'm going to attend a banquet soon. I hope my image... won't embarrass everyone." Vivian paused and said softly.
She tightened her grip on the hems of some new skirts, and what she felt in her palms was a silky texture that she had never experienced before. Although the feeling of wearing it was much better than her original rough linen clothes, But if Vivian was given a choice, she would definitely rather switch to the latter.
Because not every ugly duckling wants to become a striking white swan.
But if becoming a white swan can save many people, then Vivian is willing to try.
"I see..."
After nodding, Alina moved her hands.
In one moment, the little maid skillfully took out seven or eight various cosmetic utensils with different functions and walked towards the little girl at the dressing table.
Halfway there, Alina looked at Vivian, who had her back straight, as if she was facing a formidable enemy, and the little maid burst into laughter.
"Okay, okay, don't tense up your face as if you're going to fuck Xing. Relax Vivian, these are not as scary as you think!"
Maybe it was to relieve the little girl's nervousness.
It is also possible that the incident that just happened at the refugee gathering place reminded the little maid of herself.
While dressing up, she and Vivian chatted.
"You know Vivian, in fact, I particularly understand those refugees who do whatever they can to get into Huodian City."
"He even said that, just like Giese's mother, she thought that one day, she would be able to please a certain great noble, and then get a fortune that would allow her to live without worries in this life."
"Well...but it seems that I was already exposed the first time we met." He smiled mockingly.
Alina paused for a moment while combing Vivian's hair.
"Do you... think I'm embarrassed like this?"
"Why?" What the little maid didn't expect was that Vivian asked her back.
"What...what why?"
The unexpected reply made Alina stutter for a moment.
"Why do you feel embarrassed? Wanting to live a better life is what everyone is pursuing and working hard for, but everyone's method is different. As long as you don't rely on hurting others to achieve your goals, I don’t think there’s any shame in it.”
"only..."
Vivian turned her head and faced the maid who was deliberately combing her hair to avoid looking directly at her.
"Alina, I think...it's just my personal opinion." The little girl emphasized it for fear of hurting others.
"It's okay to rely on others, but you can't just give up on improving yourself. At least my dream is that even if I'm not qualified now, one day, I can become... someone that others can rely on!"
After a while of silence.
"Vivian."
"Um?"
"It would be great if we were of the opposite sex! When the time comes, I, I will definitely try my best to seduce you! Let you marry me! Then, we will live a happy life together!"
"Damn it! Cruel reality!" Alina looked up to the sky and screamed.
"Ah, ah this..."
Only Vivian was left with a blushing face.
Anyway, after this little episode, the dressing process went much smoother. I put on foundation, a light lipstick and lipstick, and other messy things.
When Vivian looked in the mirror again, even the little girl herself was surprised.
Looking in the mirror, the facial features are more refined and delicate, with rosy lips and slight eyeliner. It looks less natural, but in exchange for more maturity and sensibility.
Obviously her appearance has not changed, but with a few changes in details, she has transformed from the original little village girl into a beautiful one, as if she were a young lady from a certain noble family.
Although it is still not to the level of Liz, after all, temperament cannot be completely solved by makeup, it can only be accumulated over many years.
But at least, she can be said to be a younger version of the eldest lady.
Young in every sense of the word.
"It's so beautiful, Miss Vivian! Go! Those stinky nobles at the banquet will definitely be stunned by you! Then they will surrender under your pomegranate skirt, and they will do it willingly. Donate the money for reconstruction!”
Alina nodded with satisfaction.
It's like looking at a flawless piece of your own work.
Although the words of the little maid were exaggerated, even the little wolf cub lying on the cabinet beside him, Liao Zixuan, had to admit that people really rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. He announced that this is Vivian's new skin, noble Missy Limited Edition.
"Then I'm going out, Alina, I'll ask you to look after the house, Xiao Hei, you..."
Vivian originally wanted to tell Xiao Hei to stay at home and not run around.
But after thinking about it, I felt that it was not realistic, so I could only take a step back.
"Xiao Hei, try not to cause too much trouble."
By the way.
Vivian actually wanted to take the wolf cub with her, but Liao Zixuan had already expressed his attitude to the little girl in advance. He didn't want to attend such a human banquet, which would be boring, so Vivian would naturally not force it.
Calling a carriage, with an uneasy feeling, just like a child leaving his parents for the first time and going to school alone, Vivian waved her hand in final farewell and gradually disappeared from sight as the carriage set off.
"Come on, Vivian!"
After silently blessing, Alina turned around and was about to wonder if it was time for her and Xiao Hei to be alone. However, after searching for a long time, the little maid discovered to her dismay that there was still a little wolf cub there.
Sure enough, after Vivian left, Xiao Hei lost his restraints and ran to play somewhere.
But that’s fine too.
Alina, who was back to being alone, walked to her room and took out a carefully kept diary from the bottom drawer of the desk.
Turning it over, you can see that it records every detail of the little maid's daily life.
There are very few words in many of the first pages, and they are just trivial matters.
However, in the past few days, the number of pages has increased sharply, and a lot of words have been written without paying attention.
After thinking about it for a while.
Alina picked up the pen and started writing today's diary.
[Well, a lot of things happened today. It was very exciting since I woke up in the morning! Not only did I see the arrogant side of Miss Liz, she was super cute, but I also saw the posts between Miss Liz and Vivian. No, I should have heard it. Damn it, why did the Miss kick me out? It was obviously fine. Want to see it! 】
[It’s just that I didn’t expect the eldest lady’s summoned beast to be a bat. I thought there must be something wrong. Hey, actually I also want Vivian to help me see if I can also become a summoner. But I still don’t have the nerve to say it. Besides, it’s weird for a maid to have magical powers, right? Sigh, I really want to know, if I also have a summoned beast, what will it be? 】
[After seeing the situation of the refugees outside the city, I realized how difficult Vivian’s decision was. Isn’t it too difficult to help this many people? If it were me, I wouldn't have the courage, so should I be called Vivian? 】
[Geece is so pitiful. I don’t know what happened to her mother. In fact, I didn’t dare to tell Vivian. When I saw this scene, what I thought of was the sadness of the rabbit dying and the fox dying. I wondered if I would There was a day like this, but fortunately, Vivian’s words were really heart-warming! I feel inspired. Come on Alina, you must improve yourself too! 】
[I really hope this kind of life can go on forever. It’s great to know Vivian as a friend. Ah, I wrote a lot without realizing it. By the way, I almost forgot the most important thing]
Alina stopped writing, pursed her lips, and then slowly picked up the pen and wrote two words.
【Sister Qing...】
[I will definitely do my best to find out the truth...definitely! 】
...
...
Dong dong dong...
There was a knock on the door.
"Please come in." A voice sounded in the dim room.
"Master Earl, do you want to see me for anything?" The maid's voice was filled with excitement and shyness.
"Huh? Why is it you? I remember according to the list, it should be Alina's turn, right?"
A confused voice came from the desk seat in the shadows.
"Name...list?" For some reason, Alina was replaced as the new deputy maid, and Lina suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
"Forget it, it's just a matter of time anyway. After a while, I have to borrow another body to deal with that yellow-haired girl. It will be too late."
"Sir...sir, what are you talking about?"
Lina's body unconsciously retreated back to the door.
But it's too late.
"I'm saying... join the glorious evolution!"
Two scarlet rays of light were particularly dazzling in the dim room, and because of this, Linna was able to see Earl Thistle, who was previously shrouded in shadow.
So, the next second later.
"Strange...monster...! Ah..."
