Xiaoyu is always the best and most obedient child

“That was delicious.”

Ten minutes later, with a loud clatter, Kim Erise placed her empty bowl on the table.

With her legs crossed, she rubbed her round belly and let out a satisfied burp.

There was nothing better than a big meal, and if there was, it was the magical girl’s physique, which allowed them to eat without getting fat, which was a blessing for foodies!

“Be gentle,” in contrast to the red-haired girl’s whirlwind of eating, Mo and Xiaoyu ate more elegantly.

One used chopsticks to pick up the pigeon legs and chewed slowly, while the other carefully blew on the hot udon noodles in her bowl:

“You’ve already broken twenty-seven bowls, eighteen cups, and six plates. Can you stop creating new records?”

“Ara ara,” she shrugged indifferently, and pulled out a small mirror to pick her teeth.

“There’s nothing I can do, our magical girl’s physical fitness is really too strong, even without transforming, we are far beyond ordinary people.

These things can’t be avoided in daily life, right?”

“If you would just pay a little attention, you wouldn’t…” Before the silver-haired girl finished speaking, her words were interrupted by Kim Erise’s urgent inquiry:

“Treat? What treat? Strawberry cake or chocolate cookies?”

“…I didn’t say anything.”

Placing the pigeon legs she had almost finished eating aside, Mo then cut herself a small piece of steak and chewed it lightly:

“By the way, Xiaoyu, do you find the food here palatable?”

“Hehe, more than palatable?” The red-haired girl, who had finished picking her teeth, stuffed another lollipop in her mouth and looked at the girl next to her, who was sucking the udon noodles one by one:

“Judging by her appearance, she’s probably already addicted to it.”

“Mm-hmm!” Xiaoyu, who heard the two of them talking about herself, nodded quickly, with something shimmering in her eyes:

“Delicious, delicious, it’s really delicious, Sister Erise, you are really an angel, thank you so much.”

“Don’t be polite,” Kim Erise, who grinned, stroked the girl’s explosion hairstyle. “

You can think of this place as your home from now on—and, if you want to thank someone, it’s Mo, oh, it’s her who made dinner.”

“Thank you, Sister Mo,” Xiaoyu stopped eating the udon noodles in her hand, stood up abruptly, and bowed deeply to the silver-haired girl several times. “Really, thank you so much.”

“Pffft, why do you all like bowing so much?” Helplessly shrugging, the girl expressed that she really couldn’t understand this overly humble behavior.

“Didn’t I tell you, just treat this place as your own home? Being so polite is really too much.”

“But…but…” Clasping her hands tightly in front of her chest, Xiaoyu stared at her round little eyes, then couldn’t help but sob:

“Everyone…Sister Erise and, and Sister Mo, can not dislike Xiaoyu, can accept Xiaoyu, also, also can provide so much delicious food, clearly, clearly Xiaoyu has no skills, wuwuwu…”

“No, why are you crying again?” Helplessly patting her forehead, Kim Erise vaguely felt a little pain in her head, so she had to take out the napkin on the dining table and gently wipe the tears flowing from her eyes.

“Good girl, can we just eat well?”

“This child, is seriously lacking in love.”

Swallowing the steak in her mouth, Mo stood up, took out a comb from her arms, and walked to Xiaoyu’s side to start tidying up her excessively dazzling explosion pink head.

“I can see that. It reminds me of the first evening I spent with you, but the performance is completely at two extremes,”

The red-haired girl, after drying the tears of the other party, simply picked up Xiaoyu’s bowl and handed the noodles to the girl’s mouth with chopsticks:

“Come on, open your mouth, ah—”

The first night with you…

Slowing down the combing action in her hand, Mo, who was muttering to herself, began to let her thoughts fly, traversing time and space back to that unforgettable night.

If she remembered correctly, Kim Erise was almost…

“Ah—”

A sharp scream suddenly rang out, interrupting the memory that hadn’t even begun to form.

“Did I hurt you? Sorry.”

Having just noticed that she almost pulled a handful of Xiaoyu’s hair, Mo drove away the chaotic thoughts and began to focus on the things in front of her.

…

“By the way, I remember you mentioned your teacher before, right?”

Fifteen minutes later, after the girl cautiously gestured that she was full, Kim Erise put down the fourth bowl of udon noodles in her hand, which was almost empty, and handed over a lollipop:

“Tell me about your teacher.”

“Ah, okay.”

Her body suddenly trembled. Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment.

She clasped her hands tightly in front of her chest after receiving the lollipop, then nodded:

“My teacher, how should I put it, I’m very grateful to him, really grateful to him.

If it wasn’t for him pulling me out of the ruins, Xiaoyu might not have survived.

He took in many, many children, including Xiaoyu.

That, one, two, three, four…wuwu, I’m sorry, I can’t count how many children there are in total, in short, there are many, many, all like me, whose parents and grandparents went to a very, very far place.

Ah, in short, he provided food and shelter for all of us, although, although the amount was a bit small, I’m still very grateful.”

It sounded like a good person, especially someone who could think of helping children in wartime—was he a charity organization member?

The red-haired girl tilted her head and thought, lightly tapping her fingers on the table.

As for the small amount of food, it could be seen from her current emaciated appearance, but it was already very good to survive in a chaotic world.

Hardware could not be forced.

“The teacher is a very, very kind person. In my impression, he has never lost his temper with anyone; he leads us to pray every day, kneeling on the ground to meditate and pray;

He says that we can only be well-behaved and obedient children, not rebellious, not defiant, not rejecting, then we have the possibility of being favored by God, and then we have the possibility of meeting our parents again.”

Preaching? Well, taking in orphaned children was indeed a good object for preaching and brainwashing.

This also explained why she was so well-behaved now, even to the point of being overly aggressive.

“I am really, really grateful for the teacher’s nurturing heart, so I will also try my best to help him do some things, such as selling things on the street to earn some money, or cleaning and tidying up the house, and I will also participate in activities very actively, although I will feel uncomfortable and disgusted, but as long as I can help the teacher, Xiaoyu will be very happy.”

“Uncomfortable and disgusted? Why?”

Activities? According to reason, shouldn’t it be something similar to children’s games?

Why would she feel uncomfortable and disgusted?

“Well, because after every injection, I feel like I’m being bitten by insects all over my body, often unable to sleep for a whole night…”

…

Kim Erise, who squinted her eyes, and Mo, who was still combing Xiaoyu’s hair from behind, looked at each other and turned their heads at the same time.

Good heavens, she had thought of pulling that teacher into Yinbin City to help before, she was really too naive—no wonder he helped orphaned children like a saint.

It turned out he was a devil who treated children as experimental subjects.

Then, she should find an opportunity to kill him.

“But maybe my efforts have been rewarded, the teacher said that I can always get excellent results in activities, and also said that he is very proud of me.” Xiaoyu’s eyes lit up when she said this:

“There is nothing that makes Xiaoyu happier than being recognized by the teacher—so I also made up my mind to perfectly complete all the activities, even if my body hurts and suffers again.”

Excellent results… refers to the perfect experimental subject?

Looking at the dense needle marks on the girl’s arms, the red-haired girl opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but it was stuck in her throat, so she had to stuff a large handful of lollipops into her mouth in one breath.

“It’s just… one day…” Xiaoyu’s voice suddenly became hoarse, and her eyes were filled with tears again:

“The teacher suddenly said that I was no longer suitable for the experiment.

I felt wronged and puzzled, because no matter what, I would always do everything well according to the requirements, and there could never be any mistakes.

But the teacher said that Xiaoyu’s compatibility had disappeared, even if she participated in the activities, she couldn’t get good results. In other words, I, I am already useless…”

The girl’s tears were flowing more and more, and the lollipop in her hand had unconsciously fallen to the ground and shattered into countless pieces along with her heart.

The experiment failed, that could be understood, right?

“Since then, the teacher has no longer looked for me, and even deliberately avoided me. Others are also unwilling to be friends with me, often scolding me and even hitting me…

I don’t understand, I really don’t understand. I just wanted to do my best to help the teacher, to make the teacher happy, to make the teacher proud of me, but, but, but why did the teacher not want me… Could it be, could it really be like what others said, that Xiaoyu is a useless person who can’t do anything?”

“No, you are not.”

Embracing the other person in her arms, Kim Erise spat out all the lollipops in her mouth into the nearby trash can and said in a low voice:

“Xiaoyu is always the most well-behaved, the most outstanding, the most lovely child, just like her sister, who didn’t do anything wrong, nothing, nothing, and didn’t do anything wrong—forget the teacher, forget that teacher who didn’t treat you as a human being.

From now on, you will be with us, you won’t be uncomfortable, you won’t be wronged, and you won’t feel pain, there will only be happiness and joy, just like we promised in the pinky promise before.”

“I, I…”

Burying her head in the red-haired girl’s warm chest, Xiaoyu felt a stream of warmth flowing through her heart.

This was the comfort and peace that she could never experience in her parents’ arms, or in her teacher’s arms.

“You have given too much for others, and you have suppressed yourself for too long,” Kim Erise stroked her back gently with one hand and gently stroked her half-combed pink hair with the other hand:

“If you still feel uncomfortable inside, cry, cry it out, cry it out, it works, it works very well.”

“Sister Erise…”

The volcano that had accumulated for who knows how long finally erupted under the girl’s patient guidance, releasing all the emotions that had been blocked inside, and began a roaring cry like an earthquake.

A flash of lightning passed across the window, followed by heavy raindrops that began to patter on the window, announcing the arrival of a storm.

Mo, who had put away the comb, began to clear the dining table after dinner.

Her face was still expressionless as usual, but her movements were slower than usual.

And Kim Erise was still holding the girl tightly, letting the other person’s tears wet her chest, while carefully controlling the force to prevent an accidental suffocation tragedy.

She turned her head and looked out the window, gazing at the torrent of water that was constantly gushing down the window, and took a deep breath.

The night, was long, and deep.
