Dragon and Dessert House

The road was blocked by heavy snow, and it was so white that the edge could not be seen.

Fafena stood in the backyard of the traditional mansion, the air was freezing cold, and the fluttering snowflakes quietly fell from the sky, passing through Fafena's illusory figure.

Bright and dazzling candlelight shines through the windows of the mansion, and the homeowner's loud voice resounds through the entire room, and the continuous laughter and laughter make the snow on the window edge tremble.

On the contrary, it is an inconspicuous corner of the backyard. The iron chain used to tie the dog is wrapped around the neck of a frail boy and tied to the stake.

The boy was dressed poorly, his face was pale, and his hands and feet were blue from the cold.

Because of the excessive cold, his eyes were blinded, and his body trembled instinctively.The lips bitten by the teeth were frosted with frozen blood.

If he continues to ignore him, the boy is destined not to survive tonight.

The old man who sneaked out from the back door of the mansion had a worn blanket rolled up in his hand. When the old man found the boy, he quickly wrapped the boy in the blanket and lamented, "I can't help you anymore... Whether you can get through it or not is up to you." your life."

After speaking, the old man quickly returned to the mansion with the candle lamp.

The weak boy moved, and subconsciously pulled the blanket tightly to wrap himself tightly.

……

……

The soft light in the morning shone on Fafna's face through the attic window, and the warmth gradually enveloped him, and Fafna slowly opened his eyes.

With slender and well-proportioned arms, clean white clothes on his body, and Fife's dry lips, he realized that he had changed back to a human form unconsciously last night.

Looking down, the raised eyelashes of Hill in his arms trembled slightly. He was closing his eyes, trying his best to conceal the fact that he was pretending to be asleep.

Did Hill accidentally discover Neil's identity?

Fafna leaned over, and slightly touched Hill's forehead.Hill's face was flushed, and all the thoughts in his heart were exposed to Fafna without knowing it.

Great, Hill didn't see himself until morning, and didn't notice anything.

Fife secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pinched Hill's face lightly, and said in a lazy voice, "Good morning, Hill."

Hill opened his eyes, leaned against Fafnir's chest obediently, and nodded.

"Aren't you going to take a look at the present?" Favna picked up Hill nonchalantly and put him on the ground.Hill reluctantly pulled Fafnah, until Fafnah patted him on the back to urge him, and then he ran downstairs to wash.

In the bathroom on the second floor, I happened to meet Mines, who was still in a coma, and he said, "Hill! Last night was so weird!"

"What's so strange!" Tolena knocked on Migne's head unceremoniously, "You bastard, if you can't sleep, let's be honest, what kind of a man is you to sneak into my room?"

"I, I didn't..."

Minnie blushed and couldn't explain herself.But last night, I had no memory of running to Tolena's room at all!

【If you can’t sleep, tell me right away】

Hill wrote to Migne seriously in his notebook.

"You don't even believe me!" Minie wailed in despair, even doubting her life.

[Hurry up, I want to see the gift] Hill has no interest in Minnie's pale excuse, he just wants to see the gift in the stocking quickly.

Minie was so prevaricated that he was speechless, obediently went into the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face.

The bright living room is suddenly filled with a cheerful atmosphere.The Christmas stocking hanging on the fireplace was obviously put into a gift box, and the socks were squeezed out a few corners.

"Breakfast is ready."

Jianuo, who got up early, brought breakfast to the bar, but Hill and Minnie, who were so excited, ran to the fireplace immediately and took out gift boxes from their respective Christmas stockings.

"This is...a telescope?!"

Minie raised the exquisite telescope in his hand.The telescope was very heavy, and Minie couldn't hold it up for too long with his slender arms, so he could only hold it in his arms.Even so, the eagerness in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest, "Thank you, Uncle Tolena, next year I still want the magic knight's sword!"

"Santa Claus doesn't have such messy things." Tolena came over with a cigarette in his mouth, and beat Migne on the head hard.

But Minie was still overwhelmed with joy, looking around with his binoculars.

Hill carefully unfastened the strap of the small box, and took out the quill that was lying quietly inside.

The jet-black feathers are covered with faint stars, and the silver nib is hollowed out with delicate patterns.The pen is so light that you don't feel the slightest weight in your hand.Even if it was the first time he saw it, Hill could tell that this should be a rather expensive quill.

"Do you like it?" Fafna knelt down and asked Hill.

Hill nodded, and carefully put the pen back into the box. Just as he was about to use a charcoal pen to write something on the notebook, he was stopped by Fafner, "Try with this pen."

But no ink.

Hill looked at Fafnah in embarrassment, and Fafnir seemed to understand what he meant, and still nodded affirmatively.

Hill picked up the quill and wrote his name on the paper with slightly trembling hands.

The black ink smoothly drew clear traces on the paper, and even though Hill's hands were shaking constantly, it did not bring out unnecessary stains.

This is a fantastic and delicate quill.

Hill looked at the pen in his hand with surprise in his eyes.

"From now on, you will put the pen and the notebook together in a small backpack and carry them with you." Fife said, stroking Hill's head affectionately.

【it is good】

Hill couldn't describe the joy in his heart with his pen. His nib was trembling, and each letter seemed to have little wings flying, full of joy in the air.

[Thank you, Mr. Fafner. 】

Fifena chuckled and said, "This is a gift from Santa Claus."

Hill blushed and lowered his head shyly.

Hill knew that Santa Claus did not exist, but he pretended not to, trying to trick Fafnir into enjoying Christmas with him.There's no Santa here, Fife is his Santa.

Getting his own Santa as he wished, Hill took out the small cloth bag that he had hidden for a long time from his pocket, and stuffed it into the empty Christmas stocking for Neil.

Today, I am Neil's Santa Claus.Hill thought happily.

Faffna knew that it was a gift for "Neil", so he smiled and said nothing.

"You guys," Jianuo watched from the side, swept away the envy in his eyes, and said, "If you don't eat any more, breakfast will be cold."

As soon as Jianuo finished speaking, Hill's empty stomach groaned.

Several people couldn't help laughing, and after making a fuss for a while, they all clustered in front of the bar and had breakfast.After everyone dispersed, Jianuo picked up the dishes by himself, working hard as usual.

Tolena didn't play around with Migne, and went to the kitchen to give Jiano a hand, so Migne could only run outside in the snow by himself, messing about with a telescope.

Hill stood by the door watching, but he was unwilling to take a step out.

Fife looked at Hill's back silently, stood up suddenly, carried him on his shoulders, and stepped into the snow with one stride.

Hill's face turned blue in an instant, and he struggled desperately.

For the first time since seeing Hill, Fafna was so strongly resisted by Hill.His small body wrestled and swayed on his shoulders, not as weak as before, but still seemed futile.

As soon as Fife let go, Hill fell into the thick snow.

Hill's face was as pale as a dead man's, and he desperately got up from the snow, desperately crawling towards the open door.

Fife, who was squatting down, hugged Hill tightly in his arms at the right time, and even though he was struggling hard, he did not let go.Fafna's face was next to Hill's ear, and his voice was as soft as possible, "Don't be afraid, the snow is not cold anymore."

Hill's eyes were red, and his body was trembling uncomfortably.

"The snow won't be cold anymore, Hill." Favna patted his back lightly, and the two of them were half buried in the snow, whispering.The sound permeated Hill's blood and flowed into his heart, causing a beating sound of "bang bang".Hill no longer struggled and resisted, he buried his head on Fafna's shoulder, and the tears that could no longer be held in his eyes rushed out like a bank.

Silent crying is more painful than screaming.

This was the second time Hill cried desperately in Fafna's arms.Vent the pain, pour out the fear in the whole body, and erase the memories that linger on the verge of death from the body.Instead, it was Fife's gentle, soft-spoken, heart-warming comfort: the snow is finally not cold anymore.
