controls the Ash Tree Chamber of Commerce life one of the three big President, was called ‚Chapman Succubus’ hybrid young girl ーー Cherry Chapman in...... is hating to get out of bed at this time. 但是任是谁也想不到掌握梣树商会命脉的三大会长之一,被人称之为‘查普曼的魔女’的混血少女——绮莉・查普曼此时正在……赖床。 „ーー” “唰——” Looks Head Maid Beira of Chapman Cherry grows up opens the window curtains fiercely, the brutal ray penetration window crashes in fills in the young girl gentle room. 看着绮莉长大的查普曼家的女仆长贝拉猛地拉开窗帘,残酷的光芒穿透窗户冲进充满少女温柔的房间里。 „Young lady, was disrespectful.” Beira both hands overlap in the abdomen. “小姐,失礼了。”贝拉双手交叠在腹部。 The Cherry whole person falls softly in like the decoration cake same bed on, when arrived in the eye by the intense light source photo, turned a body, curls the pink quilt, turned into one in the caterpillar that on the bed wriggles. 绮莉整个人陷在松软如同奶油蛋糕一样的床上,在被强烈光源照到眼睛里时,翻了一个身子,将粉色的被子卷起来,变成了一只在床上蠕动的毛毛虫。 „Beira, I remember today does not do can early......” “贝拉,我记得今天不做早会的啊……” Cherry makes the cat same wheezing sound in the quilt, did not say patiently. 绮莉在被子里发出猫一样呼噜噜的声音,不耐烦地说道。 However Beira this time not benignly and own small Master cracks a joke, but was hesitant a moment later, said: „That side the township of dark night asked you to go home to sweep the graves.” 但是贝拉这次并没有和颜悦色地和自己的小主人开玩笑,而是犹豫了片刻之后,说道:“暗夜之乡那边请您回家扫墓。” The head buried in pillow inside Cherry silent the moment, then turned to Beira, a silver eye showed several points of sharp vision, without least bit sleepy appearance. 头埋在枕头里面的绮莉沉默了片刻,然后把头扭向贝拉,一双银色的眼睛透出几分锐利的目光,没有半点困倦的样子。 „The township of dark night...... will these people also invite me?” “暗夜之乡……这些人还会邀请我吗？” Cherry corners of the mouth curved, puts out a hand to look own exquisite dark color flesh, showed a smile of satire, said in a low voice: „I also think, in their eyes, by-product of my one transaction, should be discarded, the inexpensive and disgusting hybrid plants.” 绮莉勾起嘴角,伸出手看着自己细腻的暗色肌肤,露出了一个讽刺的微笑,低声道:“我还以为,在他们眼里,我不过一场交易的副产物,就应该被扔掉的,廉价而恶心的混血种罢了。” „Yes, they do not have the peaceful good intention.” “是的,他们没安好心。” Beira somewhat worried that said: „Since Mother of Spiders falls from the sky, the township of dark night a group of people without a leader, should so...... recently they that ’ Finn who has ‚ the female of Spider title pushed up the new throne, she now was the Dark Elf new leader.” 贝拉有些担忧地说道:“自从蜘蛛之母陨落之后,暗夜之乡早就群龙无首,本该如此……不过最近他们将那个有着‘蜘蛛之女’称号的丝特芬妮推上了新的王座,她现在是暗精灵新的首领了。” „Although is not every Dark Elf obeys her order, but she had at least commanded overwhelming majority dark night Elf.” “虽然不是每个暗精灵都服从她的命令,但她至少已经重新统领了绝大部分的暗夜精灵了。” „?” Cherry narrows the eye, said grinningly: „They like so much, when does not have the tagalong of brain.” “哦？”绮莉眯起眼睛,笑嘻嘻地说道:“他们还是这么喜欢当没脑子的跟屁虫啊。” Beira continues saying: „This time invited your is also Finn, she said that dark night Elf had a ticket big business to want with Ash Tree Chamber of Commerce to cooperate, her original words were, ‚did this business with it and others, might as well do with the own little granddaughter’.” 贝拉继续道:“这次邀请您的也是丝特芬妮,她说暗夜精灵有一票大生意想和梣树商会进行合作,她的原话是,‘与其和别人做这个生意,不如和自己的小外孙女做’。” „Ha?” Cherry crawls from the bed, is pointing at the own nose, air/Qi and funny, said: „What granddaughter am I her?!” “哈？”绮莉从床上爬起来,指着自己的鼻子,又气又好笑的,说道:“我是她哪门子外孙女啊？！” „Does not go.” Cherry does not bring completely slightly hesitant: „These motley crew cannot raise the least bit interesting water splash.” “不去。”绮莉完全不带丝毫犹豫:“这些乌合之众掀不起半点有意思的水花。” Beira should not immediately under the order of Cherry, but is the silent moment, hesitates is opening the mouth saying: „Perhaps she has long known that we will reject, therefore, she said that the words that you reject have not related, but there is a matter to tell you ーー ‚the reason of lair avalanche, because Mother of Spiders is , the stratum of township of dark night will conduct a large-scale backfill, will move......’” 贝拉没有马上应下绮莉的命令,而是沉默片刻,犹豫着开口道:“她恐怕早就知道我们会拒绝了,所以,她说,您拒绝的话也没有关系,但有件事要告诉您——‘因为蜘蛛之母所在的巢穴崩塌的缘故,暗夜之乡的地层将进行一次大规模的充填,会移动……’” Cherry stares, as if realized anything, suddenly opens the eye, turns the head to look to Beira, in the eye fills unbelievable ーー 绮莉一愣,似乎意识到了什么,突然睁大眼睛,转头看向贝拉,眼中充满难以置信—— „Will move your mother's tomb......” “会移动您母亲的坟墓……” Beira clenches teeth to say. 贝拉咬咬牙说道。 „They dare!!” “他们敢！！” The anger rushes to the head of Cherry all of a sudden, the silver eye pupil as if burns the flame to be common, one stood. 愤怒一下子冲上绮莉的脑袋,银色的眼眸仿佛燃烧着火焰一般,噌地一下站了起来。 „They dare to move my mother's tomb one inch land, I make them pay the price......” “他们敢动我母亲的坟墓一寸土地,我就让他们付出代价……” In the Cherry mind has flashed before that gentle silver-haired woman, that has given her gentle woman only. 绮莉的脑海里闪现过那位温柔的银发女人,那是唯一给过她温柔的女人。 She once blocked Cherry in the bosom, gentle strokes her by the contemporaries with the wound that the pebble pounds, told her, she along with loving the girl of birth, rather than by the monster that everyone spurned. 她曾经把绮莉拦在怀里,温柔的抚摸她被同龄人用石子砸出的伤口,告诉她,她是伴随着爱而出生的女孩,而不是一个被所有人唾弃的怪物。 Even if this union has no love, to her is even painful, but she is loving Cherry...... 纵然这场结合没有任何爱可言,对于她来说甚至是痛苦的,但她是爱着绮莉的…… Cherry took a deep breath, said: „Preparation car(riage).” 绮莉深吸一口气,道:“准备车。” Beira said: „Yes, goes to the township of dark night?” 贝拉道:“是,去暗夜之乡？” „No.” Cherry said: „Goes to bookstore, I must with Mr. Lin...... the farewell.” “不。”绮莉道:“去书店,我要和林先生……告别。” ーー —— Lin Jie sits on the bookstore counter, he has not studied rarely, both hands arm-tie the chin, a face is sinking to congeal, the vision falls to front Bookstore cleans up Joseph body. 林介坐在书店的柜台上,他难得地没有读书,双手交叉撑着下巴,一脸沉凝,目光落到前面书咖打扫卫生的约瑟夫身上。 Joseph of muscle wears the slightly some not good-fitting shirt, appearing him was stronger, such muscle strong man now is the apron, takes the broom, the careful help reorganization books, being out of sorts feeling is full. 一身肌肉的约瑟夫穿着稍微有些不合身的衬衫,显得他更壮了,这样的肌肉猛男如今系着围裙,拿着笤帚,仔细的帮忙整理书籍,违和感满满。 Lin Jie several degrees started to speak but hesitated, fall are swallowed to the words of mouth, turned held volume sigh ーー 林介几度欲言又止,落到嘴边的话语又被吞了回去,变成了扶额叹息—— Turns into this Boss Lin, is Joseph. 把林老板变成这样的,正是约瑟夫。 Yesterday when ran to look Joseph bought to cultivate/repair the wall tool, he witnesses, a Joseph fist hammer cracked other aspect wall. 昨天跑出去找约瑟夫买修墙工具时,他亲眼目睹,约瑟夫一拳锤裂了另一面墙。 This matter makes the Lin Jie three views also be shocked. 这件事让林介的三观随之受到震撼。 Afterward, he also runs up to nearby that wall specially, the careful survey, the wall average man of this reinforced concrete has no way to destroy, let alone strength relative, this wall can the effort of hammer to bits, Joseph be like the bystander unexpectedly. 事后,他还专门跑到那面墙附近,仔细勘察,这面钢筋水泥的墙壁常人根本没法打碎,更别说力都是相对的,这面墙都能锤碎的力度,约瑟夫竟然跟个没事人一样。 Very natural, Lin Jie starts to ponder, this situation only had one type to explain probably...... actually, was Joseph Esper? 很自然的,林介开始思考,这种情况好像只有一种解释了……其实,约瑟夫是超能力者吧？ Said, among people cannot be generally spoken, can your Different World person in the extremely angry situation, a fist destroy the wall? 还是说,人与人之间不能一概而论,你们异世界人在极度愤怒的情况下,是可以一拳打碎墙壁的？ According to him previously to coming from Truth Union the research of literature, as well as existence of Candela, proved this world truly has extraordinary ability, but he has thought that is thing that only then medieval century Mythical Lifeform has, but now, this idea is possibly wrong. 根据他此前对来自真理会的文献的研究,以及坎德拉的存在,都证明了这个世界确实存在超凡能力,但是他一直以为那是只有中古世纪神话生物才拥有的东西,但是现在,这想法可能是错误的。 Especially, when Lin Jie recalled at that time at the banquet, Ji Zhixiu regarding Fred entire clan suddenly eliminated a potential informant was not that surprised...... that attitude, has known probably was the same. 尤其是,当林介回忆起当时在宴会上,季织绪对于弗雷德整个家族的突然灭口并不感到意外……那种态度,就好像已经知道了一样。 However, although Lin Jie in the heart suspected at this time, but, they normally are always conducting the exchange as well as being together. 然而,虽然林介这时心中非常怀疑,可一直以来,他们都是在十分正常地进行交流以及相处。 If asks that now „you usually are such big strength, has superpower” this strange issue, how wants a little...... awkward. 如果现在去问“你们是不是平时都这么大力气,是不是有超能力”这种奇怪的问题,怎么想都有点……尴尬吧。 How should be able to make the matter is not so awkward? 该怎么样才能让事情变得不那么尴尬呢？ Lin Jie is lost in thought. 林介陷入了沉思。 „Chī ーー” “嗤——” Outside the door resounded an sharp brake sound to interrupt the Lin Jie mentality, he leaned slightly the body, looked to out of the door, pretty small leather shoes after the gate of black high-level sedan revealed. 店门外响起一声尖锐的刹车声打断了林介的思路,他稍微侧了侧身子,看向门外,一双漂亮的小皮鞋从黑色的高级轿车的门后露了出来。 „Mr. Lin!” “林先生！” The young girl lively voice of falls to the ear of Lin Jie, he has outlined the sound Master image in the brain. 少女活泼的声线才落到林介的耳朵里,他已经在大脑里面勾勒出声音主人的形象了。 Puts on the young girl of white one-piece dress to walk from the sedan, steps into bookstore familiar and easy, after a strange old person who shooting a look at bookstore comes out suddenly, the complexion had some changes. 穿着白色连衣裙的少女从轿车里面走出来,轻车熟路地踏进书店,在瞥到书店里突然多出来的一个陌生老人之后,脸色有了些许变化。 Although from the semblance and aura, was completely different from that hearsay died Great Radiant Knight, but...... will appear at this time point, actually put down white/in vain the guess. 虽然从外表和气息来看,完全和那个传闻已经死亡的光辉大骑士不同,但……会在这个时间点出现,却让人平白多了一些猜测。 Especially, should carry out the cooperation with Cherry Wilde, had fallen into losing contact completely. 尤其是,原本应该和绮莉进行合作的王尔德,已经完全陷入了失联。 But she adjusted quickly. 但她很快就调整了过来。 „Mr. Lin, I have not seen you for a long time.” Cherry is stepping the lively small broken step, a silver hair in the air dances in the breeze, the skirt swayed hikes up, from the sky draws the attractive arc, revealed the lovable smile as well as two small canine teeth, jumped to sit on the high footstool before counter, is shaking the small foot. “林先生,我好久没有见您了。”绮莉迈着轻快的小碎步,一头银发空中飘舞,裙摆飘起,在空中划出好看的弧线,露出了可爱的笑容以及两颗小虎牙,跳起来坐在了柜台前的高脚凳上,晃着小脚丫。 „How to come is so sudden, has not greeted ahead of time.” “怎么来的这么突然,都没提前打招呼。” Lin Jie hangs up the smile of business immediately, a face looks down temperately to this little miss, Cherry that but always mounts in the past is burying, quite a while did not gain ground, passed the long time, revealed pitiful small faces and two red eye sockets. 林介立刻挂上了营业的笑容,一脸温和地低头看向这小姑娘,但往常总是黏过来的绮莉把头埋着,半天不抬起头,过了半晌,才露出一张可怜兮兮的小脸和两个红红的眼圈。 „What's wrong, how to cry?” The Lin Jie assorted time pinches girl's soft small face occasionally, knits the brows to ask. “怎么了,怎么哭了？”林介什时候偶捏捏女孩柔软的小脸,皱眉问道。 Cherry sips the lip, honk the mouth was saying: „This morning too, blamed Beira early.” 绮莉抿唇,嘟着嘴道:“今天早上起的太早了,都怪贝拉。” „This...... hates to get out of bed is not good to be familiar with.” “这样啊……赖床可不是好习惯哦。” The Lin Jie smile said: „Evidently, is not borrows books today? What can say?” 林介微笑道:“看样子,今天不是来借书的吧？要说些什么吗？” Cherry raised the head, Bookstore Owner after counter occupies a commanding position, jet black vision one such as in the past. 绮莉抬起头,柜台后的书店主人居高临下,漆黑的目光一如往昔。 Probably leaves her to be very far, probably many years ago the first meeting time, have never has changed. 就好像离她很远,好像和多年前第一次见面的时候一样,从来没有变过。 The mortals anticipated that taking pity on god, seems wrong? 凡人期待神的垂怜,似乎本来就是错的吧？ Otherwise...... how, otherwise these people dare to begin directly...... 否则……否则那些人又怎么敢直接动手呢…… „I...... today am to come and Mr. Lin say goodbye.” “我……今天是来和林先生道别的。” Cherry leads not her usually such smile, is not lovable, but brings an unusual gentleness and firmness, is incompatible with she child semblance. 绮莉带着不似她平时那样的笑容,不是可爱,而是带着一种奇特的温柔和坚定,和她小孩子般的外表格格不入。 Lin Jie gawked, hearing Cherry saying: „I decided that protects a to me very important person, even she already thoroughly not in......, but something, must persevere, for this reason, I can make the sacrifice, perhaps but, will implicate some people.” 林介一愣,听见绮莉说:“我决定去保护一个对我来说很重要的人,即使她已经彻底不在了……但有些事情,是必须要坚守的,为此,我可以做出牺牲,只是,也许会连累一些人。” „Mr. Lin, if you, how to do?” “林先生,如果是您的话,会怎么做呢？” Cherry raised the head, somewhat said confusedly. 绮莉抬起头,有些迷茫地说道。 Lin Jie puts out a hand to touch her head, supple sound said: „I always felt, this dilemma, only needed to comply with the innermost feelings the idea on the line.” 林介伸手摸了摸她的脑袋,柔声道:“我从来觉得,这种两难境地,只需要遵从内心的想法就行了。” „When you asked me, in the heart should also have the answer,...... you came to say goodbye with me let alone.” “当你问我的时候,心中也应该已经有了答案了,更何况……你都来和我告别了。” Lin Jie said with a smile: „Where you want to go, where goes. Before you now already, was completely different right? Wanted me saying that Cherry was so lovable, no matter handled anything, can succeed, because the God did not hate to make you cry...... naturally, I did not give up.” 林介笑道:“你想去哪里,就去哪里。你现在已经和以前完全不一样了对吗？要我说,绮莉这么可爱,不管做什么事情,都能成功的,因为老天爷可不舍得让你哭……当然,我也不舍得。” He is comforting Cherry, while put out a hand to wipe off the teardrops on Cherry face. 他一边安慰着绮莉,一边伸手擦掉了绮莉脸上的泪珠。 Although does not know that what happened, but at this time, naturally must coax. 虽然不知道是发生了什么事情,但是这种时候,当然是要哄的啦。 Cherry makes an effort to nod, getting hold of fist „...... is, because I met Boss Lin, before I already, was different.” 绮莉用力点头,握紧拳头“……是,因为我遇到了林老板,我已经和以前不一样了。” „Ok, did not need to be that worried.” Lin Jie cracks a joke saying: „It's a small world, is perhaps quick, we can meet in other places.” “好了,不用那么担心。”林介开玩笑道:“人生何处不相逢,说不定很快,我们就能在其他地方相遇了。”
