The Fire Chaser of the Collapsing World

"You're tired from playing, eat some apples Xier peeled!"

"Ah-ah, thank you Xier."

Xier is not a very enthusiastic and proactive person, but he is the only exception.

She held her face in both hands, watching Mikael crunching the apple with her dirty hands, a smile could not be restrained enlarged on her face.

"Uh..." Mikael glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, then tapped her forehead helplessly, "Why do you keep giggling!"

[To be honest, I have recently followed up, changed sources, and have many voices for reading aloud, .yeguoyuedu Android and Apple are both available. 】

A black mark was instantly left on her white forehead, but Xier didn't care, she still stared at Mikael's side face with a smirk.

"Creak creak..." Mikael gnawed the apple until there was only a small core left, and then threw it towards the window not far away.

The fruit core easily hit a pink head.

"Mikael!"

The crystal arrow flew across the roof like a shooting star, and even lifted a piece of tile.

Mikael and Seele covered their mouths and sniggered as they rolled over to the other side of the roof.

"Hahaha, is it really good to bully Sister Ellie like this?"

"It's okay, she's very talkative."

"Oh, really? Mikael!"

A familiar voice sounded from behind.

"Sister Alicia, I was wrong!"

"Sister Alicia, Xier said she knew she was wrong!"

"..."

As night fell, Mikael accompanied Seele to wash all the dishes used by the children.

Aponia was telling the children a bedtime story, Mikael and Seele stood at the door far away from each other, and did not go in to disturb them.

Walking through the empty courtyard, the smell of children's sweat still seems to be in the air, and then walking through the iron gate that was kicked down by thousands of calamities.

Amidst a tooth-piercing "squeak", the iron gate was slowly closed.

In the guard's small room next to the door, Qian Jie was using a small carving knife to carve rough and simple lines on the wood by the candlelight.

He doesn't seem to like the artificial dazzling light of incandescent lamps or fluorescent lamps, but rather the fragile, dim light of candles.

"Mr. Qianjie is also a very complicated person."

"Uh?"

Xier took Mikael's hand, and the two walked in the dim streets of Twilight Street like real brothers and sisters.

"Mr. Qian Jie has a bad temper, but he never gets angry with the children. He is even willing to be the guard here, and besides those strange wooden withers, there are several cloths given to him by the children on his table. I do."

"Mmmmmmmmmmmmm, Xier observes really carefully!"

"Brother Mikael, Xier is no longer a child!"

"Uh-huh--"

"Brother Mikael, if you continue to 'hmm', Xier will be angry!"

"Uh-huh--"

Xier was about to get angry as soon as she curled her lips, but suddenly her head felt warm:

"Time flies, it's been a year and a half."

"Ah... It's been a year and a half..."

Xi'er felt the temperature of her palm and the top of her head, and suddenly said with a smile:

"Brother Mikael's hands are still so warm, just like my sister."

"..."

Some of the mental damage caused by Midoro seemed irreversible. A year and a half had passed, but Xier still firmly believed in the existence of that sister.

Neither Mikael nor Su, nor anyone else dared to reveal this fact.

No one knows whether the girl's already fragile spirit will collapse because of this.

Then leave it to her.

"Anyway... her dependence on me is all because of that sister who doesn't exist, right?"

"Ciel?"

"Ok?"

"Want to go on vacation? Go somewhere a little farther away?"

"A...vacation? I heard from Sister Hua that Brother Mikael once took her to work overtime in the name of 'vacation'..."

"This... this, this, this, when did this happen!"

Mikael was ruthlessly exposed to the past embarrassment, and took two steps back again and again.

But in a blink of an eye, he flicked Xier's forehead again, interrupting the girl's smirk, "Don't worry, I must choose a good place this time, just you, me, and Ellie, and no one else will disturb us ...Speaking of which, I haven't really relaxed in a long time. By the way, where does Xier want to go?"

"Do you really want Xier to choose?"

"of course."

Xi'er sucked her finger, her eyes were a little wandering, she said in a daze: "Xi'er... Xi'er wants to go to the beach, go to the beach... Xi'er once made an appointment with her sister to go to the sea..."

"Yes...is it..."

Mikael forced a smile, and immediately took out his mobile phone to type in the question: [Global summer seaside vacation recommendations? 】

"Drip!"

It took a few minutes for a response.

[Thanks for the invitation, I'm in Attica, I just got off the plane, this is indeed a world-renowned summer resort, here is the link of the real street view released by the local area mag=urn:btih:72fe2a4237c0331]

"Attica City..."

Mikael's eyes narrowed.

"Xie'er, come and see, how is this place?"

Chapter 2 Walter, Nagisa Kaoru, Bronya

"Wow—is this the city of Attica? It's really... so desolate!"

The international airport, which was originally large enough to accommodate hundreds of passenger planes, now has a large area of ​​white space. In the lawn between the runways, weeds are spreading wildly, almost reaching the waist, and many places have even invaded the runway.

"Let's go, Ellie, don't block the door."

"But haven't everyone else left already?"

Ellie glanced at the [-] or [-] people who hurried off the plane earlier—a large passenger plane with [-] seats can do so few people now.

"You blocked the staff and closed the door..."

"Ah... oh!"

From getting off the plane to leaving the airport, from beginning to end, except for an aunt who reviewed the documents, the rest were all robots.

"Mr. Walter..."

The aunt glanced at Mikael to confirm that it was consistent with the photo on the ID card, and then scanned the magnetic card with a special card reader.

"drop!"

The card reader lights up green.

"Thank you."

Mikael took Velvet's forged documents from Big Mom.

"Nagisakaworu...港色...Ah——sounds like a very eastern name!"

Aunt quickly glanced at Alicia, and then her eyes froze:

"Oh my god...there is such a cute girl!"

The aunt even forgot to scan the magnetic card, and returned the ID to Ellie in a daze.

"Bu... Bu Ruo...Miss Bronya... Uh... Are you the daughter of the two of them?"

"?" x3

Wei Wei, you are finished!

The aunt glanced at the three people who had nothing in common in appearance, and then at the reading result of the card reader on the screen——

"hiss……"

Of course she has to question it, not to mention the appearance, and the age is not right!

Seeing this, Ellie immediately rushed to the counter, explaining half coquettishly and half pretentiously:

"Sigh—sister, you don't know how hard the three of us are living! Yes, we are not actually a parent and daughter relationship, but we are really a family of three!"

"Uh……"

The aunt opened her mouth halfway, thinking that she should refute something, but how could Ellie give her a chance to speak?

"I know you are in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry, let me tell this miserable story completely, and then you can judge our right or wrong, okay?"

"well……"

"It was a dark and windy night, yes, the three of us were actually not related by blood, just orphans adopted in the orphanage in the small town of Vostok-51... Yes, yes, yes, that day Tonight... By the way, sister, do you want to know what happened in Vostok that night?"

"what happened!"

Big Mom's eyes lit up. For a woman her age, there is nothing more attractive than gossip--especially to obtain information about such a big and strange event.

As for authenticity?It doesn't matter.

Anyway, the story that Ellie will tell next will be carefully thought out all afternoon, and she will not tell it until evening when she chats with a few women of the same age in the neighborhood.

"...um...yes...that's it."

Xi'er stared dumbfounded as she called her brother and brother with a strange aunt... Bah, Alicia, who called her sister and sister, felt that the scene was once very magical.

"Sister Alicia, have you always been this powerful?"

"Ah... She has something even better, Xi'er, do you want to try it... Forget it, Xi'er, you are still too young."

"?"

Alicia struggled for almost half an hour before the airport aunt finally raised her hand and let this strange "family of three" leave.

After the three of them left, the aunt looked around and confirmed that there would be no work for the time being. She immediately took out her mobile phone, opened the memo, and began to record and "refinish" the story Ellie told.

"Ah...ahhh! Attica, Attica...how is this completely different from the ones on the Internet!"

Leaving the airport, walking on the downhill asphalt road, Alicia kicked gravel everywhere while complaining uncontrollably.

There are no extra figures on the street at all, and the fourth person is occasionally seen, but they pass by in a hurry. The eyes they looked at Mikael and others showed no curiosity or enthusiasm that they should have. Or vigilance.

Nothing at all.

They just walked across the asphalt road silently and numbly, leaving dull and dull footsteps, that's all.

"Ahh—— Yin Dian was afraid of being recognized, so he didn't dare to come. Now it seems completely unnecessary!"

The houses on both sides were covered with light yellow dust and mud. After a gust of wind, dark gray mist hung low on the wide street. After walking a few steps, Alicia's carefully selected white dress It has been smoked into a burnt yellow.

"Cough cough!"

Xier couldn't help coughing violently, Ellie quickly took her hand, and then covered her mouth and nose with a silk sleeve.

"Oh... big brother..."

A figure suddenly rushed out of the mist, and Mikael tried to stop him, but his words only made the person's footsteps pause, and then accelerated to flee.

"What happened? The city of Attica on the Internet is clearly one of the top ten recommended places for summer vacations in the world."
