Fantasies That Descend on Collapse

The atmosphere in the hall was very lively, and the conversations of the rich and powerful became more and more joyful, but as the most out of place in this circle, all she could do at this moment was to fold her arms around her chest and lean her back against the wall in the corner, And close your eyes that can see everything clearly.

After all, it is impossible for him to become one of them, and the gifts from those two cannot make him one of them,

She who is the first cannot teach the flattery that can be used in communication; One's own, after all, only a mortal.

Intrigue, duplicity, this kind of skills that are necessary for businessmen, dignitaries and high-class people, is still a bit too difficult for him.

"call..."

After finishing his self-examination, he just opened his eyes, looked around and found nothing in the end, he couldn't help but let out a slight and helpless sigh.

Recalling the instructions given to him by Einstein, who was helped away by Telas, and convinced that he did not misremember the time mentioned in the instructions, he seemed to understand something.

So.. this counts, is the other party late...?

After realizing the situation he was in now, he just smiled wryly, and after exchanging his left and right feet for supporting his body, he continued to close his eyes and leaned against the wall behind him.

After all, there is a slight discrepancy with the scheduled time, which is not unforgivable, not to mention that this is still a me company, and I will not encounter any...

"Hello ma'am..."

The inexplicable question passed through the noisy background, and he, who was leaning against the wall and closed his eyes in thought, suddenly opened his eyes.

Then what he saw was a kid from a rich family standing in front of him with a slightly drunk demeanor.

"I see you are here alone, do you need some help?"

The young man who seemed to be slightly drunk just said so, and then handed over his right hand, with a smile on his face that could be described as a gentleman.

"..."

I... was accosted by someone?

Facing this completely unexpected situation, he, as the invitee, just stared at the young man standing in front of him, who was courting him, and didn't know what to say to appear more appropriate. .

After all, until today, he had never considered that he would be approached by a stranger, or even a person of the same sex, on such an occasion.

How should I put it... It's really quite strange.

He recovered from that strange sense, facing the young man in front of him who offered an invitation to him, he didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.

"Thank you sir for your kindness, I am just waiting for my companion here."

In the end, after a little thought, he still chose to use such a slightly peaceful answer to reject the invitation of the young man in front of him.

After all, the statement of telling the other party to leave directly may have a bad influence from all aspects.

Of course, the premise of not doing this is based on the fact that the other party is sufficiently knowledgeable.

"I don't think so, ma'am."

The other party who received such an answer did not take back his invitation, but kept a smile on his face, and at the same time moved forward a little, narrowing the distance between the two.

"Actually, I have noticed that you have been waiting here alone for a long time, so I think your companion should have missed the appointment, then..."

The other party who said so suddenly stretched out his hand at this moment, and before Luo Chen could react, he took his right hand.

"So, will you allow me to be your companion for this evening, beautiful lady?"

"..."

Facing the young man who made a decision in front of him and held hands with him without authorization, he just remained silent, thinking about how to deal with it now.

So should I take advantage of the momentum and crush the opponent's palm, or directly kick him without killing him, or...

"Sorry sir..."

Just when he was thinking about how to deal with the other party, an uninvited third party suddenly joined the topic at this moment.

"Me Club, it's not such a casual place."

The lady named Cocolia just reached out and clasped the other's wrist, and said so lightly.

------

It was located on the second floor of the hall, and the second floor, where only a few people were present even at this moment, was at the cost of losing the hustle and bustle and most of the area. Compared with the first floor, it could be said to be completely different. tranquility.

The noisy but spacious lower, the quiet but narrow upper, two extremely contradictory scenes collide with each other at this moment, just like the 'hell' and 'heaven'.

At this time, Cocolia was just standing at the edge of the upper "heaven", holding the guardrail, watching the guests who had been happy and busy until now in the lower "hell". .

"If you don't like being in contact with those people, this should be the best place"

"After all, the people below are not very good at concealing their clean purpose that has been exposed."

After withdrawing her eyes from the guests on the first floor, Cocolia just turned around and leaned against the railing on the second floor, then watched with a smile on the person who was brought up to the second floor by herself, and at the moment looked slightly Cautious lady.

The young lady who seemed out of place with the lower classes, looked young, but had an overly mature temperament and leaned towards her mother.

So, the other party is actually married, and even has children?

After realizing such a possibility, Cocolia's gaze on the other party became inexplicably... a little complicated.

"Didn't your husband come with you?"

Suddenly, she withdrew her gaze for observing herself, and then asked, her tone full of sympathy.

After all, it is impossible for a man who can let his wife come alone to participate in this kind of gathering with too much interest.

However, what responded to her was the surprised expression of the other party, and the answer that was completely different from what she had expected.

"Although someone came with me...but I'm only under 20 years old, and I'm not married at all..."

Facing Cocolia's almost unbelievable question, Luo Chen was only stunned for a moment before answering the question raised by the other party with some embarrassment.

Originally, he was still worried about whether the other party with the title of mother fox had seen some clues from himself and chose to take him to the second floor where few people stayed, but now it seems...

Maybe I, like the other party, fell into a situation of thinking too much, and judging from the other party's previous questions, what she thought should be more exaggerated than myself.

"Ah, sorry, I was the one to be rude."

Cocolia, who realized that her judgment was wrong, just apologized in embarrassment, but at the same time realized an even stranger problem.

Assuming that the other party is not married at all, then why does the other party give me the feeling...Could it be...?

She seemed to have the answer, but just when she was about to speak to confirm her idea, she realized the one thing she had neglected the most.

It seems that until now, she didn't know how to address this lady who was brought here by herself.

"I don't know what to call you better?"

"If you call me..."

He listened to the inquiry from behind Cocolia, and after a short thought, gave a false but insignificant answer.

"Just call me...Emma."

"Emma...ah, by the way, you can call me Cocolia."

Cocolia, who finally gave her name in exchange for it, only repeated it several times in a low voice before speaking again, proposing a possibility that she had tried to think of earlier.

"Miss Emma, ​​may I ask... have you ever adopted a child?"

This is what Cocolia thought of, the only answer that could be used to explain her question.

"Ever adopted? I..."

Hearing the conjectures made by the other party, Luo Chen, who originally planned to answer the other party with a denial, inexplicably recalled what happened not long ago.

He thought of the child who didn't have any blood relationship with him, but was a little too dependent on him.

Thinking of this, after a moment of silence, he gave the other party a very pertinent answer.

"Yeah...I have adopted a child..."

"Really, it seems that I guessed right."

After learning that her previous guess was correct, Cocolia's tone became a little more satisfied.

"You'd make a wonderful mother."

"Excellent mother...it should be impossible."

Although he knew that the mother that Cocolia said at this time was just a role in the other party's thinking, and it was absolutely impossible for him to become the role called mother in the other party's thinking.

So of course, he denied Cocolia's evaluation.

"Don't be so absolute, Miss Emma."

"You're like me in a way, and I happen to be a mother too."

"So... want to hear a story about my child, Miss Emma?"

Cocolia asked so, but just straightened her standing posture, and then stared at this lady who, in her opinion, should be the same mother as her.

Even she herself didn't know why she had exchanged secrets that only she knew with this lady who had met for less than a few minutes.

But she also vaguely felt at this moment that maybe... this might be the only time she could share this secret that she had kept hidden for a long time with others.

The originally chatty atmosphere between the two of them gradually became a little dull after Cocolia's speech. It wasn't until Luo Chen gave his answer that the dullness improved a little bit.

"Go ahead, Ms. Cocolia."

"Ha ha..."

After getting the answer, Cocolia just smiled lightly, and then leaned against the guardrail again, with a look of nostalgia on her face.

"That was when I was in my 20s, when I was an ordinary soldier, and it was at that time that I had a child of my own."

"At that time, I chose to give birth to that child, she was a very cute girl, and because the father of that child had long since died and my personal reasons, I entrusted my child to a civilian family in the form of foster care. home."

"Originally, my plan was to go to that civilian's house when I was honorably discharged, pick up my child, and stay away from that place of right and wrong, but unexpectedly, when my daughter was two years old, I But completely lost contact with that civilian."

"And after that, I kept asking about my daughter."

A dull sigh interrupted Cocolia's narration. She closed her eyes for a long time before slowly opening them, with sadness between her brows.

"It wasn't until 12 years later that I got information about my daughter..."

The narration of the story came to an abrupt end at this point, and when Luochen was wondering why Cocolia stopped at this moment, what the other party said next made him confused at this moment.

"Ah, Miss Emma, ​​it seems...your boyfriend has come to see you."

"Ok?"

Looking along where the other party's fingertips pointed, what he saw was the one who had been late for a long time, wearing a khaki coat, and who had not arrived late until now...

Walter Young...
