A true hero marries a man by his appearance [Comprehensive]

Sharing the same bed, to put it so ambiguously, is actually a little timid but imaginative kid who thinks too much on his own.

Eddie had raised Solomon for such a long time, since Solomon was five years old, but even so, they didn't seem to have slept in the same bed.

Even if he treats the human cub he likes, the man doesn't dote on him to the extent that he has to take him to sleep. No matter how poor Papara is, there is no shortage of that bed in the palace.

But the man would take some time before Solomon's bedtime, which seemed to be set in advance, and sat next to the child who seemed to be a machine crash after lying on the bed.

When he came over, he might bring a volume of official documents to be approved, and force himself to read them carefully, but there was a high probability that he would not be able to read them after a long time.

So usually, I don’t take anything with me, and I don’t do anything. As soon as I lean against the bed, I start to close my eyes and meditate.

At that time, Solomon was used to the man's actions that could not be explained by normal logic. Anyway, he felt that everything this man did was "meaningless", and it became meaningless to explore the other party's purpose for doing so.

So even if he thought about this problem at the beginning, it is not surprising that he would not show it on the surface.

So, in those nights, one person was thinking about something in his heart, and one person was leaning on the side without knowing what to do, and the time passed in a flash.

When Solomon woke up, no one was around the bed.

I don't know when the man left.

Perhaps, only the slight warmth that seemed to remain on his forehead could make him understand a little bit of the man's touch in his sleep, but that might just be an illusion.

The real further contact is after the only possibility of Solomon "Roman" appears.

The man hugged him, and the cold feeling from his body made him who was submerged in the high temperature feel extremely nostalgic...

But now, he also has nostalgia in his heart, and he also leans on the man's side.

But, but, clearly, very clearly - something went wrong!

"This"...is "this"! ! !

"…………"

The bed was too narrow.

It was too crowded for two men of adult size to lie side by side.

There is no gap between the shoulders, they can only touch each other, and even overlap in the collision.

Roman lay flat on his back, his eyes were dizzy and he didn't close them.

a little, a little, a little...

It was purely moving towards the bed a little bit without being aware of it.

He "thought" his movements were very small. However, in such a small place, a slight movement could make the wooden bed creak. This movement could not be avoided by Eddie who was next to him.

"Why, you want to roll to the ground and sleep?"

Eddie stretched out an arm and put it behind Roman's head as a pillow for him, but judging by the wandering posture of the person involved, he must not have noticed it yet.

In this position, he bent his hands a little, and blocked the pink-haired man who seemed to really want to fall onto the bed, just in time to roll onto him with a grunt.

Now if you don't want to post it, you have to post it.

In front of the man who was more mixed with admiration, Roman didn't know why he became so useless, and when he was caught off guard, he bumped into him at the wrong position and angle.

"Wow!"

"Hey, be careful."

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Roman's nose hit Eddie's shoulder, which happened to be the hardest bone.Even though Eddie reacted quickly and blocked him with the back of his left hand, it still made the bridge of his nose sour and tears came out.

"So, what are you messing with?" Eddie said so, but he still thought his frightened posture was cute: "You don't want to be with me?"

"Well..."

"Then what are you doing?"

"..."

Roman covered his poor nose, not only did not speak for a long time, but also shrunk himself down and into the extremely thin layer of quilt covering his body in silence.

Shrinking and shrinking, all that is exposed is the messy hair that was untied, and a small half of the blood-congested red face that cannot be seen in the dark. The eyes that cannot be closed are still wandering, and I don't know where to go. where to look.

"Speak, Jedidiah."

"...Ugh."

He dawdled, dawdled, but in the end he didn't dare to dawdle any longer, he was afraid that the man would get angry.

So, I buried my face in the ground, and after a while, I heard a very weak voice:

"Why... I don't have pajamas...Eddie, you didn't take off your clothes..."

Eddie: "..."

He really took it.

Jedidia cared about things that he hadn't thought about. Could this be the generation gap between the old and the young?

"I don't have the habit of sleeping naked." Eddie said directly, and gave a seemingly reasonable explanation for Roman's previous question: "Aren't you afraid of heat?"

He was obviously so caring, seeing that the silly boy was so dazed for some reason, he didn't even know how to take off his clothes in the shower, so he personally became his nanny.

The conclusion that Roman is afraid of heat comes from his experience on a desert island.

The young man who was hot all over grabbed him tightly and didn't let go, just because he had the most natural cool air and his skin was icy cold.

When Eddie fished Roman out of the rudimentary bathroom, he felt hot when he touched it. If Roman was not still conscious, he would have felt that this silly boy who seemed to be smoking all over his body was soaked in hot water. It was cooked.

Therefore, Eddie didn't think much about it, and directly used ice to cool down and climb to freeze the fragile human beings, which is the safest and easiest method at present.

Anyway, he is a man, and he will not dislike the child he raised with his own hands. At most, he just feels uncomfortable next to a huge heat source with stickiness.But this little thing, endure it and pass it.

——It turned out that Jedidia was shy and embarrassed here.

Eddie wanted to laugh a little, but considering Roman's face, he didn't really laugh.

However, just as he was about to say something to make poor Jedidia less shy in front of him, his Jedidia still covered most of his face, but the muffled voice escaped:

"But...you are afraid of the heat."

Eddie was taken aback.

The darkness can't block his sight, so he can still see clearly that Roman is really hot, so hot that the sweat will press down on his hair and wet his face, and his face is quite sticky.

I moved to the side involuntarily before, probably thinking that he is afraid of heat, so I don't want to get sweat on him, and I don't want to transfer the heat to him who is originally cool.

"……stupid."

As he said so, he stretched himself a little.

His range of motion is not large, because the outstretched left arm is still under Roman's head, which is not very convenient after all.However, even if it was such a small movement, Roman could notice it immediately and became tense.

The darkness couldn't block Eddie's sight, so he could easily see that Roman's exposed hair was wet with sweat, and the small half of his face could not avoid the fate of being soaked in sweat.

Only the pair of eyes smeared with dark color remained.

There will always be hesitation and loneliness in these eyes that Eddie would never have, and this time is probably no exception.It may even be blocked by him, allowing more affection to seep out accidentally.

"With your temperature, how hot can you go?"

As Eddie said, he first used his right hand, which had quickly blocked Roman, to press down the quilt covering most of his face, and it got stuck under his jaw, revealing a sweaty face.

After this, he leaned over.

The first thing to fall was some long hair that slid past his ears, as if it also carried the coldness that only he had, rubbing away the sweat on the tip of Roman's nose.Then Eddie himself bowed his head.

There is no lack of cold lips, but it feels so warm and soft.

Although it is not a direct kiss on the wet forehead, with sweaty bangs in between, but this action alone is enough to dissolve the anxiety that has accumulated for a long time.

"Go to sleep."

Eddie said.From the heavy tone, no obvious emotion can be heard.

But such a simple word—at least on the surface, really calmed him down who was still hesitant.

The man lay down again, but this brought him closer to Roman, allowing the silly child in him to rest his wet head on his chest, and even his flimsy shirt was water-stained.

... I don't know if it is a dream or reality, or the border between the two.

He really fell asleep peacefully.

Too many things have happened today, including important things that can be determined to change his fate... But in this remote village that he has never set foot in before, lying in this strange and crowded place On the bed, the habit of planning for a rainy day that I can't get rid of has not reappeared for the time being.

When he was half asleep and half awake, Roman seemed to hear a man's voice trembling from his chest that was close at hand.

—What are you still afraid of, Jedidiah.

What is he afraid of.

Now that the "biggest obstacle" he thought no longer exists, what is he afraid of?

The answer to this question has not yet been found.

Because Roman fell asleep.

The peaceful sleep he hadn't enjoyed for a long time brought him back involuntarily.

In the past of Papara's life, the past of getting along with Eric and Antasia, the past of light and temperature, the past of longing, the past of despair, the past of pain, and——

happy.

It can even be called a happy past.

In the past, the latter could only be deeply covered by the shadow of the former.Even if it can bring a little comfort in retrospect, it is too weak, like a drop in the bucket, and it cannot be compared with the gloom that fills the heart that is about to be broken.

And now.

The part of the "light" seemed to expand silently.

Although I still don't have the ability to compete with the seemingly endless darkness, but it's better than the past when there was no hope at all...

……

Its daybreak.

In this mountain village, the symbol of dawn is not just the bright light after the night is opened, but the rooster crowing that resounds through the sky at four or five o'clock in the morning.

After the village entrance calls, the village tail calls.

After the end of the village yelled, the whole village followed suit.

One after another, continuous, this is the most pure natural alarm clock, free of charge, health and no money.

"Um……"

"Yeah, thank you so much... But can you keep blocking our door every day and barking!"

Rural life is an indispensable and important theme in countless literary works or artistic works, many of which symbolize tranquility and simplicity.

When Roman was Solomon, he was no stranger to the countryside.

It doesn't have much to do with whether he, King Solomon, cares about people's livelihood. The main thing is that apart from the name of a country, Papara is actually equivalent to a large and small village, and the residents are basically farmers who need to cultivate in the fields. people.He himself has personally cultivated it, and he has nothing to complain about the environment here.

but.

but! !! !!

The former Chaldean young and promising commander, His Excellency Romani Akiman, who has been in this small village for more than a month, is about to collapse and go crazy.

The villagers in Xiaoshan have a simple and simple style, and they are warm to outsiders. They are willing to rent their house to two foreigners who are strange to them.

The only downside, maybe.

Roman despaired of the roosters who gathered at the door of their temporary house to crow every morning.

It was normal at first.

When Eddie pressed him to sleep early, Roman didn't notice at all.

Someone was sleeping next to him, and he was hugged and pressed together. It should be very uncomfortable to fall asleep, but he was the opposite, falling asleep faster than usual.

Because of Eddie, Roman unconsciously got rid of the bad habit of going to bed at twelve o'clock in the morning and never being able to sleep.

However, the so-called advantages have disadvantages.

Still because of Eddie, the self-control that the man who was tense all over the past was so proud of — heck, why is it so strange to say that — seems to have been imperceptibly disintegrated.

He began to lie in bed uncontrollably.

At the beginning, she was blushing and unwilling to sleep next to Eddie naked, but in the end, her body was always very honest.Every morning when he woke up, Roman would be horrified to find that no matter how powerful the psychological hints he gave himself at night, in the end, he would hold on to Eddie and not let go.

Hands are still on someone's chest, waist...

and.

Generally speaking, when he suddenly woke up in panic, he would find that the sun had somehow passed through the half-closed window and shone on their bed.

At this time, even if it is not officially at noon when we should have lunch, it is still within a few minutes.

"...Degenerate, degenerate, degenerate, and even let Eddie fall with me, wow!"

Roman blamed himself very much, and when he thought that ten days and a half months, or even ten years ago, he was clearly a person who struggled to get up no matter how late he went to bed and raced to work, and suddenly realized that he seemed to be more useless and more homely The sadness is simply uncontrollable.

"I—I can't go on like this!"

It didn't take long before he realized the most serious problem at the moment and was determined to make a change.

"Pfft...cough, actually you don't need to be so nervous, there's nothing wrong with being lazy."

Eddie felt more and more that Yedidia was really cute, and it turned out that she was different from before, more lively, but a little timid.

He intentionally made Jedidia more relaxed, but it seemed that the steps were too fast, and Jedidia still missed the point, so he couldn't relax.

"No, no, no, I will definitely be criticized if I go on like this... Well, I just don't want to lose my status too quickly. I have to go to bed early and get up early, and do something to enrich my life... That's right! This is one of my major goals in the near future."

So risky, so risky, Roman was in a hurry, and almost opened his mouth to leak out his true words, but he was lucky enough to stop it at a critical moment.

He seemed to be holding it back, but he glanced at Eddie's expression as if nothing had happened. Seeing the man looking at him with a half-smile, his heart trembled again inexplicably.

It seems like he was caught on the spot after doing something with a guilty conscience, but he felt that he had nothing to feel guilty about, so he was able to hold on.

"Do you want to enrich yourself? If you think so, I won't object. There is just one thing, you have to think about it and don't go back on your word."

"Of course! I can't continue to be decadent like this. A new life has to be enriched to be meaningful..."

The following omits more than double the words suspected of trying to cover up.

At that time, Roman spoke very happily and imposingly, which undoubtedly showed the commander's demeanor, but he didn't face the fact that his sudden depression was the unconditional habit of this man.

however.

How powerful he was at that time, the future in the near future—no, it can already be said to be "now"—has much regret.

Did Eddie do it on purpose?

This……

No, I don't know.

Anyway, he brought Roman to this small mountain village for no purpose, and there was nothing he had to do.It's purely because after staying for a day, I feel that the scenery here is good and the atmosphere is comfortable, so I will stay here for a while.

The strange thing is that although Roman, who seems to be easier to get along with than him, is not rejected, but in terms of popularity, he is much worse than Eddie, who scares mortals away at first.

The people who like Eddie the most are the little kids in the village.

They were all about five, six, seven or eight years old. Roman just didn't notice for a long time, and a string of little tails followed behind Eddie.

For Roman's request to live a "full" life, Eddie still tolerantly satisfied.

However, he said: "Okay, then from tomorrow, you can get up early and run with them."

Roman: "Huh?"

Eddie: "It's about seven o'clock in the morning here. It's too late, no. Make the time earlier, just get up when the rooster crows, and gather outside the yard for a run."

Roman: "Wait? Wait!"

Eddie: "What's the matter, don't you think getting up early and exercising is not enough, dear Jedidiah?"

Roman: "..."

Speechless, let alone refute.

Roman didn't want to recall how miserable he was to this point.

Forget about the children, Roman is a good-tempered adult anyway, even if the little devils treat him as Eddie's follower and call him brother and brother, he will...

... He can't help it either.

The culprit who drove the roosters to come to the door at a fixed time and crow in unison every morning has been found.One day, Roman saw with his own eyes that Lucas, whom he knew so well, suddenly fell from the sky and brought Eddie a wallet full of banknotes, and he could only choke silently.

Moreover, the language is still not interoperable.

In addition to running around the fields with the children every day, Roman had to learn Chinese by himself under the premise of being exhausted.

Judging by human standards, his language talent is already quite strong, and he was able to learn Chinese a lot by himself in just one month.

However, there are still many differences between official Chinese and the dialect used by some people in a small area of ​​this huge country.

Roman learned to burst into tears, and was almost distracted by the local people's completely messed up tones.

For this reason, Roman was blatantly ridiculed by his "teacher" and companion.

He is a dignified adult (who hasn't been out of the house for ten years), but he can't run a group of children (who have been running wildly all over the mountains since they were young) in sportswear that is sweating every day. It is really embarrassing.

However, the brats laughed at him because they laughed at him, but they all laughed without malice.Early in the morning, after running three laps around the village, the adult man who couldn't support himself and sat on the ground was panting, with a look of lovelessness on his face.

noisy.

The noise rose.

Yelling, burying his head and continuing to live a loveless man, he didn't need to look up, he could guess what happened and who came again.

As usual, that person walked over after communicating with the little ghosts.

"Angry?"

"How is it possible... Why am I angry with the children? I can't even understand what they say."

"Then, let's change the question. Are you tired? Are your legs so sore that you can't stand up?"

"……Um."

"It's too lack of exercise, Jedidiah, you were not like this before."

As he said that, as soon as the man raised his hand, he put him on his back and carried him easily.

At the beginning, Roman would say no, no matter what, I will go by myself. However, it is useless for Eddie to be brave enough to hurt his body. The protests were all ignored. As time passed, Roman stopped talking.

He didn't speak, just letting the sweat that slid down from the corner of his forehead along the tip of his hair slide into the man's neck, as if trying to blend with the white skin under the black clothes.

"What did you say to the children?"

Roman will ask this question.

Eddie walked back with his back on his back, and replied indifferently: "That's all, let them not dislike you, and let you be a little bit..."

Actually not.

Even Roman, who hadn't fully understood the dialect, could guess that Eddie didn't say that.

What did he say?

Oh, as early as the initial please, he carried the dying fool back for the first time, and what he said to the laughing children behind him seemed to be a thank you.

"Thank you. This child in my family always thinks too much, so he can only find something to divert his attention."

……

"So, what are you afraid of, Jedidiah?"

He said.

"I'm not, right by your side."
