Neighbors in forbidden land

In the end, Yimi fell asleep on the tip of my claws, crying and crying.

There were still two strings of faint tear stains on her flushed face, but her expression was very relaxed, with the same shallow smile on her face.

Seeing her smile, I always feel that it is enough to break off a claw tip.

There are still dense dark clouds overhead, and neither the twinkling stars nor the dark night sky can be seen.

Only Yimi and I are on this silent land, waiting for the endless darkness.

But what to do now...

If Yimi just sleeps here, my paws and even my arms won't be able to move.

And it is very likely that Yimi will have a "fever" again.

But looking at Yimi's peaceful sleeping face, I really don't want to wake her up.

So I had no choice but to bend down and lie next to Yimi without moving my paws, getting as close to her as possible, and using my body to help her block the growing wind.

I saw Yimi in my arms turned over and leaned sideways on my paw.

Well...it's fine if you don't wake up.

So I gently unfolded my tail and curled it up beside Yimi and me to ensure that the wind blowing from another direction would not affect Yimi.

It seems that I didn't write a diary... Let's wait until tomorrow to make up.

Letting the gust of wind blow, I just spread out my broken wings and wrapped me and Yimi in my arms.

In this case, Yimi can rest well.

I just watched Yimi quietly like this, watching her slowly raise her hand as if she was about to grab something, and finally put her hand on the tip of my claw.

Sure enough, chopping up the tip of this claw was the right choice.

At least I finally have a chance to touch Yimi.

Even if the land is still desolate, the scenery remains the same every day, only the plants repeatedly pull out shriveled new shoots, stubbornly break through the desolate soil, and finally die helplessly, blending with the soil and returning to the earth.

But now, the scenery has changed.

A human girl has arrived here.

Her frowns and smiles are ever-changing, and her words and deeds are lingering.

These are things that I can't comprehend, but I want to watch her if I'm allowed to.

Just looking at her feels...

Feel……

At least this time.

This time there will be no more mistakes.

————————————————————————————————————————

By the time Yimi woke up, the sun had already crossed the skyline.

The clouds at night have not dissipated, but there are still wisps of sunlight squeezing through the gaps between the clouds and descending on this land.

This has been a sight to see for many days.

But I think starting from today, it should be different.

Because of this human girl in my arms.

Yimi raised one hand and stretched her waist, there were some crystal teardrops hanging around her tightly closed pupils, and a lazy yawn came out from her slightly opened mouth.

"Huh-ah-"

Seeing this, I slowly folded my wings, and quietly retracted the tail coiled on the ground to block the wind, and greeted her first.

As a result, Yimi, who heard my voice, suddenly bounced off my paw with a great movement, and raised a hand to cover her red face and small mouth.

"Xiao Hei...you saw it?"

I also took the opportunity to retract my claws.

I feel like this is what Yimi should look like.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooth..." as if unconvinced.

Because I didn't sleep at all.

"Xiao Hei, you woke up so early...what on earth are you doing?"

"Xiao Hei, you are really a pervert, pervert! Why did you wake up so early in the morning to see other people's sleeping faces, pervert!" Yimi, who was blushing almost to the ears, shrank her legs and folded her arms around her chest, posing An expression of disbelief.

Otherwise, I have nothing to do.

"Of course not! I, my, my face is so mere... A mere blackie can look at it if he wants to!"

But I watched it all night.

"Then don't watch it!"

"If I'm not sure, don't be sure, stand behind me!"

I got up slowly, and I was already behind Yimi.

Yimi also got up slowly, patted the ashes on her body, and then stared at her hands in a daze.

Ok?

"No! I didn't look at anything!" Yimi said this while bending her hands to cover her chest, desperately trying to hide something.

Her hands... seem to be the shells I fished in the sea yesterday, right?

Although some are broken... I can only say that my movements have been as light as possible.

"Yes, yes, where is the sun now?" Yimi suddenly asked me in a panic.

The original orange-red light is now gradually turning white, and the secret backup trumpet final name YuriAcgn reflects the sky that is not blocked by clouds into an incomparably blue.

"Ah... what time should be the meal time this time... every three meal cycle is six hours, six hours and twelve hours... If it happens to be the evening, it will be prepared... ah ah ah It's so troublesome..."

"It doesn't matter, I'm hungry anyway, so it doesn't matter if I can't remember, in a word, there must be no problem with eating now." Yimi said with her hands on her hips, with a proud face.

Then with a broken expression, he covered his face with his hands, and sighed: "But when I think about eating that meat..."

"Forget it, let's eat that, and we'll go to the beach after eating."

As a result, Yimi ate more than before this time, but her expression was still distorted when she chewed, as if she was holding back something.

Sure enough, I should find something else to eat...

"By the way, Xiao Hei... is there water here?"

I replied without thinking.

"...I want a drinkable blackie, you idiot."

The nearest waterhole is on the opposite side from the sea. "Then let's drink water first... I'm so thirsty..."

In the end, Yimi decided to go to the place I dug out that can be called a lake to drink water, and then when returning to the beach——

It's not even noon yet!

I looked at the sun in the sky. Although it had gradually climbed to a higher place, it hadn't reached the top yet.

This is completely different from Yimi's speed on the first day.

It seemed that Yimi's footsteps were a little bit bigger, she followed my reminder almost neatly and avoided the pit on the ground (my footprints), with very few rests in the middle.

"Me? Am I okay? It's Xiao Hei, are you okay?"

Yimi smiled slightly, then walked directly onto the beach and walked towards the sea.

This……

"Is it almost noon?"

After all, the sun is almost overhead.

"So you can see the tide?"

But, Yimi, you...

Can't you see it?

In the end, Yimi said as if she knew what I was thinking: "Don't worry... Even if I can't see, I will listen with my ears."

"By the way, Xiao Hei, how far am I from the sea?"

"How far is not far?"

"Isn't it far away?"

I don't know... Anyway, I just passed it in one step.

"I said far is far, understand?"

Next, Yimi raised both hands left and right, and began to move forward step by step:

"one two Three……"

While talking, Yimi stepped forward, leaving a series of small footprints on the golden sand, and then brushed by her long light orange hair, the irregular footprints were erased, leaving a trail Long fine lines.

"Xiao Hei, why don't you come too, see how many steps you can get there, ah, of course you have to walk behind me."

In my words, it's just one step away.

"Count it out."

"...47, 48..." Yimi spread her arms and walked on the beach in front with her eyes closed.

I didn't move, watching Yimi walking on the beach in front of me.

Counting every step, like a certain rhythm.

"...65, 66..."

Following my reminder, Yimi also stopped at the beach.

And in front of her is the calm sea, which is as blue as the sky, and as boundless as the sky.

"Hey! Xiao Hei, you walked... 65 steps?"

"Yeah! I won!" Yimi seemed to be very happy and jumped on the spot.

Although I don't know the reason at all, it's fine since Yimi is happy.

"Is the sea ahead?"

"It's very quiet."

While I was talking, the originally calm sea surface fluctuated slightly, and the blue sea water rolled up into sheets of fine white foam, rolling towards the beach with a little noise.

"Ah... I heard the sound."

Yimi raised her hand to her ear and said softly.

When the sea water reached Yimi's feet, Yimi frowned slightly:

"It's so cold..."

"Is this the tide..." Yimi's voice suddenly became very thin, as if following the tide and being submerged in the tide.

"I really want to take a good look..."

Just when I was about to say something, I saw something.

Right at Yimi's feet.

Yimi obviously noticed it too, and lowered her head in surprise.

Because that "thing" was moving, not so much as moving, as it was constantly churning, throwing sand and water everywhere.

It seems to have been washed from the sea onto the beach with the tide.

It is nearly half a meter long and looks like a fish in the sea.

The surface of the round black body is covered with blue-black scales, but the tail has a silver-white caudal fin, the same round head has a pair of white eyes, and a protruding fang grows from the mouth, distributed in the The fins on both sides of the body kept beating the sand, as if trying to return to the sea, but to no avail.

"Gulu, Gulu (good, hard, suffering)."

When hearing this voice.

I understand.

This is no ordinary fish in the sea.

This is, monster.
