My Arknights Life Diary

"Okay, Xiao Ke, stop baring your teeth. Hong is at least no longer an enemy now, and I think there may be some misunderstanding between us."

When Xiao Ke heard Tu Fang say this, she put away her attacking posture. She was also an obedient child.

"Um... Red, can you tell me why you want to... uh... in your words, hunt lambs?"

"Grandma, you need Hong to catch a sheep and bring it to the Wolf Fort. There are delicious food and Grandma in the Wolf Fort."

"Um.........."

After listening to this, Tu Fang fell into deep thought. What is this Wolf Fort? Is it in the original plot? Why don’t I have any impression of it at all?

Also, shouldn't her grandmother be hunting other Rupers? Why is she trying to catch sheep like a certain Big Bad Wolf?

I think they don’t eat sheep either!

Gululu~

Hong's stomach suddenly rumbled in the now tense situation.

This attracted Tu Fang's attention very well.

"Are you hungry?" X2

Xiao Ke and Tu Fang asked this in unison.

"Red isn't hungry."

Hong was a smart child. She knew that exposing her abnormal condition in the wilderness would give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage, so she denied her hunger.

However, if her eyes were not fixed on the burrito from Turtle in the Lamb's hand, then her words might have some credibility.

Tu Fang observed Hong's figure carefully and could clearly see that she was a little thin, but he could not see anything further.

Hong's entire body was hidden under the extremely ill-fitting red coat, and Tu Fang could not confirm what was inside with the naked eye.

However, these night shopping trips confirmed some things, for example, he was now very sure that Hong was really hungry.

"Well, wait a minute. I think I have some snacks on me. You can fill your stomach first."

Tu Fang said this as he took off his backpack and then dug out a few bags of snacks, including some bread, potato chips, candy and the like.

Tu Fang took out a bag of egg yolk pie from the snacks, tore it open, held the piece the size of his palm in his hand, and showed it to Hong.

"This is... a kind of bread. Its name is egg yolk pie. You know bread, it's a kind of food. Here you go! You can use this to fill your stomach first!"

Tu Fang said this and threw the egg yolk pie to Hong, but Hong did not catch it. Instead, he dodged the egg yolk pie.

After making sure that the egg yolk pie would not suddenly explode, Hong slowly reached for the egg yolk pie and picked it up.

She first put the egg yolk pie in front of her nose and smelled it, then didn't care that the egg yolk pie was already dirty, and threw it directly into her mouth.

He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Tu Fang felt that when Hong put the egg yolk pie into his mouth, his originally sharp eyes became much clearer.

After eating the egg yolk pie, Hong looked at Tu Fang with some reluctance, and then seemed to have made up her mind.

"Egg yolk pie, delicious! Hong, I want egg yolk pie!"

"Got it. I have a lot of egg yolk pies here. You can have as much as you want!"

Tu Fang said this and took out five or six egg yolk pies from his bag. Hong looked at the egg yolk pies and unconsciously moved closer to Tu Fang.

Xiao Ke noticed this and stood silently beside Tu Fang.

"Egg yolk pie, delicious! Hong, I want egg yolk pie!"

Hong said this and took five or six bags of egg yolk tarts from Tu Fang. However, when she was about to eat them, she was in trouble because the outer packaging bags were a bit troublesome.

But this did not pose a problem for Hong. She simply pulled the annoying packaging bag apart.

"Delicious! Hong, I like egg yolk pie!"

After eating another egg yolk pie, a satisfied smile appeared on Hong's face. Then she started to tear into the next egg yolk pie.

Tu Fang looked at Hong who was eating, and as if possessed, he put one of his hands on Hong's head and rubbed it. Hong did not have any stress response to this.

Even her tail, which had been hanging down all year round, swayed slightly.

Xiao Ke: Hmm? Hmm! Hmm......

I don't know why, but when Xiao Ke looked at Hong, she had a strange feeling... She couldn't put her finger on it, but it was just very strange.

However, Xiao Ke felt that since she didn't know about that feeling, it shouldn't be important, so he didn't take it to heart.

Tu Fang looked at Hong, whose eyes were becoming clearer and whose tail was swaying slightly. For a moment, he vaguely felt how his ancestors turned wolves into dogs.

.................

Hong was still eating, and the egg yolk pie in the bag was soon gone. One could only say that this young wolf was really starving.

In response to this, Tu Fang chose to run aside and call Nancy. When he came here, he stopped by the snack shop to buy some egg yolk pies, dried meat and other things.

As Tu Fang left Hong's side, the two silly girls, Xiao Ke and Gui Gui, came up to Hong, the not-so-smart girl.

"Your name is Hong, right? Why are you catching the lamb?"

Guigui looked at Hong who was eating the egg yolk pie, came up to her and asked.

"Hong, catch the sheep and find grandma, there is food to eat."

"grandmother?"

Turtle was a little confused.

Xiao Ke noticed something different from Guigui. She noticed that Hong seemed to have been hungry for a long time.

"Hong, you look like you haven't eaten in a long time."

Xiao Ke saw Hong's skinny body and said this.

"There are few prey in the wilderness. Red, I haven't hunted for more than ten days. Red, I'm hungry."

Hong's words successfully reminded Xiao Ke of some things. She looked at Hong and seemed to see her past self.

Before she followed Tu Fang, she often failed to catch prey in the wilderness like Hong and thus went hungry for days at a time. The same was true for Guigui, and she also lived a wandering life for a long time.

The three greedy girls who had wandered in the wilderness seemed to resonate with this sentence.

"Hong, are you also wandering in the wilderness now? Do you have no home?"

Turtle asked first.

"Well, Red, grew up in the wilderness."

Hong nodded.

"Hey, me too. Xiao Ke also grew up in the wilderness."

Xiao Ke scratched his head and added with a smile.

"Well, I can smell the scent of the wilderness on you, Xiaoke. It's not the scent of a wolf, but it's also the scent of the wilderness."

Hong listened to Xiaoke's words and also responded with the same sentence.

"Well, speaking of which, Hong, what is your grandmother? You just said that you grew up in the wilderness, so what about your grandmother?"

Turtle brought up the question that was interrupted earlier.

Hong, after hearing this question, didn't know how to answer, nor did she know whether she should answer it. Fortunately, her elusive grandmother helped her solve her doubts.

"Hong's grandmother was a wolf. Hong was raised by wolves. Grandma made Hong leave the wolves. Hong is wandering now."

Hong De's confusing words successfully fooled the two not-so-bright silly girls.

"I don't understand, but Red's grandmother isn't Rupert, she's a wolf, that should be correct, right?"

Turtle said this after thinking about it, and Hong nodded without refutation.

"By the way, Hong, are you still planning to continue wandering?"

Xiao Ke asked this question suddenly.

"Hong, I don't know. Grandma asked Hong to find a new life, but Hong, I don't know what the new life is. Maybe one day, Hong will have her own territory. At that time, Hong should not wander around anymore."

Xiao Ke wanted to say something, but she glanced at Guigui before she spoke. Guigui also knew what Xiao Ke wanted to say and nodded.

Seeing that Guigui agreed, Xiaoke also spoke.

"Is that so? So you also want to stop wandering around. Then why don't you become our family? Come with us, and you'll have a home and no longer have to wander around."

Xiao Ke made such an invitation to Hong. She saw her former self in Hong, so she also wanted Hong to have a home.

On the other side, Guigui did not refute anything. She also agreed with Hongjia's family on this matter.
