"Are you not afraid now?"

"I'm not afraid... Well, I'm still afraid, but sister Aponia said that brother lie will not hurt us. I believe sister Aponia... and I only know it after getting along with brother lie. Brother lie In fact, he is a very gentle and good man, and I also believe that brother lie will not hurt us, so gradually he will not be so afraid, hehehe. "

Lie nodded thoughtfully: "I see..."

——Do you also think that I am a gentle... person?

——But I obviously don't know anything about people, I just simply memorized the teacher's teachings, and then repeated them again and again.

—In other words, the one who is really gentle is actually the teacher?

——That's right, the teacher's affinity is really strong, even the naughty children in the orphanage are willing to listen to him.

——By the way, at a time like this, the teacher should...

Lie deduced in his mind for a moment, then looked up at Ankexia, and asked, "Can I touch your head?"

Ankexia blinked, showing a shocked expression: "Oh? Why?"

Lie deliberated over his words and said, "Because I think Ankexia is a very well-behaved and sensible boy, so I want to touch your head as a reward? I used to see that children like to touch the teacher's head. , if you don’t like it, forget it.”

"(*/ω\*)!"

"I am willing!"

Almost at the moment of blushing, the three words "I am willing" blurted out, An Kexia lowered his head actively, and looked at Lie with eyes full of expectation.

how to say?

This kind of Ankexia inexplicably reminds Lie of the puppy in the orphanage, which was also picked up by the teacher in the snow. He is very close and likes to interact with people. Every time he wants others to play with him, They will squat down, wag their tails, and stare at each other with similar eyes...

——In other words, you really like it?

Lie carefully put his hand on Ankexia's head, and then gently stroked it according to the strength and technique in his memory.

Ankexia closed her eyes with a look of enjoyment, and even took the initiative to rub her cute face with a little baby fat against Lie's palm. After a while, two blushes of happiness rose on her face.

After a while, Lie let go of his hand, and Ankexia opened his eyes belatedly, a look of loss appeared on his face, but soon she calmed down, and asked with bright eyes : "Brother Lie! Can you still touch my head in the future! (?o?o)??"

Lie thought for a while, and replied: "Yes, but Ankexia wants to be a good boy, a good boy who won't let Alponia worry about it."

"Yeah! I will definitely be a good boy! (≧?≦)ゞ"

Lie continued: "So, you must eat well. At your age, when you are growing up, you need a lot of nutrition... If it is not enough, you can take it from me."

Hearing this, An Kexia immediately shook his head like a rattle: "That's not acceptable, if I eat up brother lie's portion, wouldn't brother lie be going to starve?"

"Don't worry, I was full before I came here, and I won't need to eat for a long time in the future—and, I also have a way to eat enough."

Ankexia nodded with some confusion: "Oh oh oh..."

"What are you talking about? So happy?"

At this moment, Aponia's voice suddenly sounded. Looking at the reputation, I saw Aponia holding a plate and looking down at the two little ones who were whispering, with a strong teasing and smile in his eyes.

Facing Aponia's gaze, Ankexia's face turned red again, she lowered her head shyly, and stuttered a little: "No no no nothing!"

Aponia took advantage of the opportunity to sit across from them, squinted her eyes and joked, "It's only been a while, and you've become so close~"

Ankexia's face turned even redder, almost steaming: "Woo~"

Aponia's voice attracted the children's attention. As soon as they turned their heads, they saw Ankexia with this appearance. Some of the naughty ones couldn't help laughing in unison: "Haha! Sorry! ! This Ankexia is Xun!"

Lie, on the other hand, acted calmly, maintaining Gujing Wubo's calm expression all the time, facing Aponia's teasing, he calmly replied: "It's nothing, it's just that this kid is worried that I won't have enough to eat, and doesn't want me to have enough food." I blame you, so I took the initiative to express my willingness to give up my share to me, so I repeated the previous remarks to her, and by the way praised her for being a good and sensible child..."

Hearing this, Ankexia yelled shamefully and angrily: "Ahhhhhhhhh, brother lie, why did you say everything!!!"

Seeing An Kexia's reaction was so intense, Lie said in surprise: "Ah? Can't we say this?"

"Pfft, I didn't expect you to be like this Ankexia."

Chapter 8: Alponia, you are so strong!

The dinner ended amidst laughter and laughter. Lieben wanted to help the children put away the tableware, but they were very sensible, and they packed them up consciously after eating. Then they picked it up and walked towards the back kitchen, forming a line and taking turns Wash your own dishes.

Aponia was not idle either. She skillfully picked up the tablecloth and wiped the messy dining table. It can’t be considered rich when they are all here, they haven’t eaten meat and seafood for a long time..."

Lie nodded approvingly: "Understood, it's like being hungry. I know it's very uncomfortable... It's hard for you too. You have to support a huge nursing home by yourself, Alponia, you are so strong."

Aponia didn't expect that Lie would praise herself so straightforwardly, so she couldn't help being stunned for a moment. After recovering, she was a little shy and at the same time felt a little delicate about Lie's words, "It's too much praise. Although it was really hard at the beginning, the child They are very obedient, and the older ones will help to take care of them. After getting used to it, I think it's okay... However, Lie, generally speaking, girls don't like to be described and praised by words like 'powerful'. .”

Hearing this, Lie tilted his head unconsciously, and his slender little hair curled up suspiciously: "Is this so? How do you feel about Alponia?"

After wiping the last table, Aponia put down the rag, took a deep look at Lie, put his hands together, and said with a smile, "I'm an ordinary girl too."

"Apolonia, lying is not good, um, so is excessive modesty." Lie didn't understand Alponia's overtones at all, he ignored the slightly changed face of the other party, shook his head, and bluntly denied the other party's words, "The power you have is much stronger than ordinary people."

The smile on Alponia's face couldn't hold back anymore: "Uh...you can be more euphemistic and use another word to describe it."

"Oh, Alponia doesn't like to be described like this..." Seeing her so embarrassed, Lie finally realized it belatedly. Although he was puzzled by this, Lie didn't have the habit of forcing others and asking the truth. If you don't like it, just don't do it next time.

So the curly hair slowly stretched out, regaining its natural curvature, nodded fiercely and said: "Although this is the most appropriate adjective in my opinion, since Aponia doesn't like it, then forget it, I will pay attention to it in the future of."

"..."

——Actually, you don’t need to add this sentence at all.

Aponia thought gloomily, looking at Lie's innocent and innocent appearance, she couldn't help but suspect that Lie was deliberately playing tricks on her, but considering the inhuman nature of the other party, such a guess would soon be dismissed Self-defeating... Sigh, there are more and more things to teach him.

Taking a deep breath, Aponia sighed in her heart, then stretched out her hands to pinch Lie's little face, and said to him earnestly: "There is a big difference between men and women, regardless of body and mind, or even concept. "

Lie replied indifferently: "This teacher told me that I can fully understand the physiological differences, but nothing else... I don't even understand human beings, let alone this? It's a big deal if I encounter one. Remember One thing, and then an apology."

The corner of Aponia's mouth twitched: "... Is this what the teacher taught you?"

Lie said bluntly: "Not really, this is actually my usual practice, um, the same is true for my teacher's teachings, of course, the objects are limited to those who are willing to show kindness to me... People have self-esteem, and kindness requires Mutual, vexatious people are better off with an iron fist."

Aponia, who was born and raised on Twilight Street, was silent for a moment, did not refute, but nodded, and solemnly agreed: "There is one thing to say, indeed, people's goodwill should not be distorted and trampled at will."

Aponia's response was beyond Lie's expectations. He said in astonishment: "...I thought you would refute and teach me."

Alponia blinked, and asked with some dissatisfaction: "Huh? Do I look like such a rigid and rigid person?"

Lie stared at Aponia for a while, bowed his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't apply the teacher's behavior pattern to Aponia just because the two have something in common, I won't do it next time, if this I'm sorry to upset you."

"..."

The strong frankness made Aponia feel powerless when she punched cotton. She sighed and replied angrily: "Don't look at me like this, anyway, I also grew up on Twilight Street."

Hearing what she said, Lie suddenly remembered the conversation with Aponia before, so he asked: "Is there anything special about this place on Twilight Street? I heard you mentioned it before?"

Aponia's expression suddenly dimmed, and there was a faint glimmer of sadness in her eyes. She clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and said in a deep voice: "As I said before, Twilight Street is a corner forgotten by the world. Everyone can find their own home here... Among them, of course, there are countless sinners and villains."

"Although this place is poor and dilapidated, with weak law enforcement and many crimes, it is tolerant enough. Everyone can find their own destination here, and even start their second life..."

"Natural villains, sinners who have committed heinous crimes, honest people who have been forced to die, ordinary people who are prudent... This place is like a big dye vat, all-inclusive, all good and bad are included in it without discrimination. "

"However, although Twilight Street is tolerant, it is also very xenophobic... People who have nothing are welcome here, and people from all walks of life who are not tolerated by the world are gathered here... But everyone has one thing in common. They hate those who are high and enjoy the light. Unknowing 'outsiders'."

Speaking of this, Aponia couldn't help showing a bit of a bitter smile: "Maybe it's because I'm used to dark corners, so I don't see strong light coming in?"

After listening to Aponia's narration on Twilight Street, Lie's eyes drifted to the children who had washed the dishes and came out from the back kitchen one after another, "I see, because it's not safe here, so you, Aponia, You don't want them to go out to play, do you?"

Aponia was stunned for a moment, then giggled and said, "Ah, did I even tell you about this? It's great, I can gain the trust of the children so quickly, and I dare to sue you gone."

"So it's real?"

"That's right, this is one of the reasons, Twilight Street is not safe, of course, there are other reasons..."

"What are you talking about?"

Facing the children gradually crowding up, the conversation between the two came to an abrupt end. Aponia gave Lie a 'sorry' look, stopped the topic, and turned to the children with a gentle smile: "It's nothing, it's just you Lie My brother has just arrived here and doesn't know much about many things in Twilight Street, so my sister will help him popularize science."

It seems that it is inconvenient to mention the content in front of the children.

Forget it, let's talk about it next time.

This time, Lie understood the deep meaning of Aponia, and returned a clear look of 'understanding', and then took the initiative to cooperate with Aponia to set up a cover: "Yes, I have to understand the local situation before I can give you little The guy hits the right prey."

One of the children smacked his lips: "It always feels so perfunctory..."

"Really, I didn't lie to you."

Another girl pulled Alponia's clothes and asked expectantly, "By the way, sister Alponia, what's the story tonight?"

Aponiya scratched the girl's nose dotingly: "You will know when the time comes, come on, let's go to the courtyard, it will be cooler over there... Lie, you can come too."

"so I……"

Lie Ben wanted to refuse, but seeing all the children looking at him eagerly, their expectant eyes sparkled, as if tears would overflow from them if he refused, Lie had no choice but to change his words: "Okay, I'll go too Bar."

The children cheered in unison: "Yeah!"

Seeing all this, Aponia smiled more and more on her face, like a blooming white lily, her eyes filled with the brilliance of motherhood, she took the initiative to walk up to Lie, took his little hand, and said softly : "Come on, let's go."

……

Under the moon, in front of the fountain.

Some of Lie and the children sat by the fountain, and some simply sat on the ground, while Aponia pulled out a wooden chair and sat on it, holding a storybook in her hand, turning the pages of the book, she whispered Said: "Today, the story we are going to tell is about the boy who loves to laugh, Kelpa..."

"Ah... I've heard this five hundred and one times..."

Chapter 9: This Land X1

"Ah... I've heard this five hundred and one times..."

A child suddenly made a sound of disgust like a discouraged ball, while the little friend next to him punched him on the head mercilessly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Idiot! We have heard it many times. Is it? Brother Kelie is new here, he has never heard of it before!"

Only then did the child suddenly realize: "That's right! Brother lie hasn't heard of it... There's no way, whoever let Aponia have only one sister, let's take it as brother lie's companion! "

Lie shook his head and said, "Don't worry about me, I don't care, as long as you are happy."

"That won't do!"

These remarks aroused the collective opposition of the children, and Ankexia even held Lie's hand, and said to him very seriously: "We are a family now, how can we just care about our own pleasure and ignore the feelings of our family members?" reason!"

"that is!"

On the contrary, Ankexia's remarks were unanimously approved by the children, seeing the serious and stubborn expressions of the children, Lie once again succumbed, nodded and said: "Okay, then I will accept everyone's kindness gone."

At this moment, Aponia suddenly said: "Then... Lie, can you tell stories?"

Lie asked in puzzlement, "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

Aponia closed the book, and there was a look of embarrassment and expectation in her eyes. She stared at Lie's eyes that were still shining like stars in the dark night, and two faint blushes could not help flying on her face, and she said a little embarrassedly: " Lie, didn’t you say that you had the experience of raising children in an orphanage before, so I want to ask if you can tell stories... As you can see, the children are tired of hearing the stories I tell, but the nursing home And only this storybook..."

As soon as the words fell, Aponia's expression became a little gloomy, so that the voice of the connecting voice became thinner: "Ru, if this makes you feel embarrassed, then I apologize, just pretend I didn't say it... "

Lie Shi smiled and said: "There is nothing to apologize for... However, I really don't know how to tell stories. After all, there were teachers there at that time, and I usually didn't coax the naughty children, but taught them with physics. .”

One of the children who didn't understand raised his hand and asked, "Ask, what is physics education?"

"..."

Lie glanced at the child, silently raised his little hand, and clenched it into a fist under the eyes of everyone. The huge force and rapidity wrapped and compressed the air, and a harsh popping sound burst out the moment the five fingers were closed into a fist.

Its meaning is self-explanatory.

Only then did the children recall that this very good-looking, very talkative little brother was actually a ruthless man who almost scared everyone to the ground just by his aura, and it was normal to have such terrifying power.

then--

Shake Shake Shake...

Looking at the children rubbing their teary eyes, huddled together, and almost shaking like a sieve, Lie couldn't help wondering if he had used too much force. He sighed and added patiently: "Don't worry, I won't beat you so hard, I will strike Have a sense of proportion, at most it will hurt your butt for a few days, it will be fine... and I don't beat good children..."

——A few mischievous but self-aware kids in the crowd trembled even more.

Aponia was also amused by the interaction between them, and said to the children: "So, be a good obedient boy, your brother Lie is not as soft-hearted as sister Aponia, he really knows how to do it ~"

I don't know what kind of mentality it is, but Aponiya deliberately lengthened the tone, as if threatening the children.

The children were also very cooperative, and tears were about to rush out of their eyes.

Lie couldn't stand it anymore, so he stopped him and said, "Aponia, don't be so mean, they are really going to cry."

"However..." As soon as the topic changed, Lie took the initiative to change the topic back, he pondered for a moment, and continued, "Although I can't tell the story...but I can tell my experience, or what you want to know and I just happen to I know...if you are interested."

"!"

Aponia opened her eyes slightly, and immediately frowned, she pulled Lie to her side, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Is it really all right?"

Lie also replied in a low voice: "It's not a big problem, the big deal is to pick some clips they might like and talk about it, and then make adjustments based on real-time feedback."
