[Hunter] Lucky Chiyo

Neither of them spoke for the rest of the time.

Chiyo looked up at the sky, where there were stars shining softly.I don't think about anything, I don't know what to think about, and I completely empty myself.

Just like that, I gradually fell asleep watching it.

Breathing very lightly and steadily, the boy beside her turned his head to look at her for a while, but the emerald eyes were shining with a cold light at this moment.

He slowly raised his hand and approached the person next to him little by little.

The movement was very slow, involving the wound, he did it with a bit of difficulty, and seemed to be hesitating inexplicably.

"Hmm..." Chiyo moved, adjusted a more comfortable posture, waited, and didn't intend to wake up.

The boy withdrew his hand when she spoke, and looked at the other party who seemed defenseless, with complicated eyes.

After a long while, he seemed to think of something, "Heh", the boy raised the corner of his mouth and showed a very slight smile, his voice floated in the air, and his face finally felt a little relieved.

Finally, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

On the other side, Chiyo let go of the sharp metal tightly held in his hand.

After that, no one moved any more, and all the waves and undercurrents were silent in the darkness, and no more waves were stirred up.

It wasn't until the light climbed up the world above the horizon inch by inch, dispelling the dense darkness that lingered all night, that the two gradually woke up.

Chiyo stretched her waist, feeling that her whole body was loose.Sure enough, this is the most comfortable time of the day, Chiyo thought with satisfaction, and then looked at the boy on the side.

"It's dawn, let's have something to eat. I still have a small bag of bread." Chiyo looked at him, his face was expressionless, but his heart was a little complicated.

It seems that God has endowed her with a sharper perception than ordinary people, and she clearly felt the killing intent last night.Although he didn't do anything in the end, and she was not a saint, she did have some rare patience and tolerance for the people he saved.

Moreover, although it looks like she is two years younger than him.But she always had a feeling in her heart that the other party was a child.

This feeling is very strange, and there is no way to explain it.

By the time you've finished eating it's time to propose separation.Chiyo thought secretly.

After all, even if she looks good, it can't explain his act of wanting to kill her yesterday ╮(╯▽╰)╭, I regret every minute that I saved him yesterday.

Well no, actually Chiyo didn't know why, she had a feeling that she shouldn't die here in this way.

Eat slowly.Chiyo looked at the moldy place and swallowed it hesitantly, but the boy was not picky and ate it in big mouthfuls.

"My name is Xia Ke." After eating, when Chiyo was hesitating how to speak, the boy said suddenly.

"Ah?" Chiyo couldn't react, and looked over in a daze, only to find that the knight was looking at her, as if waiting for her reply.

"Well...my name is Chiyo." Chiyo said her name, still a little nervous.The other party doesn't play cards according to the routine, what the hell is it to introduce yourself if there is a disagreement?

"Chiyo, well, since you saved me, it means that we are destined. Since there is such a destiny, let's go together. You are not familiar with the situation here. Two people are better than one." The boy had a smile on his face, as if he was really looking forward to his colleagues in the future, his eyes were shining brightly.

No, I would probably die faster with two than with one.Thinking of what happened yesterday, Chiyo secretly complained in his heart.

However, two people are indeed better than her wandering around by herself, after all, she doesn't know this place at all.

But some issues still need to be clarified. The days when two people are on guard against each other are a bit difficult.

"But, you obviously want to kill me." Chiyo looked straight at the knight without avoiding it, watching the temperature in his eyes cool down.

It may be risky to directly point out the problem, but the opponent is seriously injured now, even if there is a real fight, the loser will not be yourself.

"Ah, it was discovered." After a stalemate for a while, the knight smiled, looking quite calm.

"But now I really want to go with you sincerely, and I didn't really do anything yesterday. After exchanging names, I'm a companion." It seemed to be a little rogue smile, and the words seemed to instantly dispel all the previous coldness erased.

"Exchanging names is a companion?" Where is this custom.

Chiyo repeated unconsciously.In her only memory, the name didn't seem to have such a role.

She squinted her eyes and looked at the harmless boy in front of her.

"Because the name is the only thing you have, it is very precious."

When the knight said this, his eyes were serious and frank.It was like the rare clean light in the morning, still a bit deserted, but very soft.

The only thing to have...?Chiyo thought about this sentence in a daze.

Thinking about it this way, it seems to be true.

Now she only has the name "Chiyo".

The knight stood up unsteadily, Chiyo instinctively reached out to help him, but he blocked him.

"It's okay, you can come by yourself."

The knight said so, fell silent, and smiled again, "Chiyo is really a soft-hearted and gentle person."

It's just a habitual movement, Chiyo touched her nose, she was soft-hearted and could barely put it on. The main reason is that the comparison object is too cruel, so let's forget about being gentle.

Although he hasn't put down his guard yet, such a talking boy is really easy to gain favor with.

"Is it okay?" Chiyo pointed to the injury on his knee, "It looks very painful."

"Well, it's just a small injury. If it hurts... I'm used to it."

The chivalrous man replied like this, but when it came to the last sentence, there was a look in his eyes that Chiyo couldn't understand.

Looking at it again, it has a somewhat lonely expression, like an injured kitten or puppy on the side of the road.It makes people put down their guard unconsciously, but Chiyo knows clearly that the person in front of him is the most dangerous beast.

"Oh" she replied flatly.

"Hey~ I thought Chiyo would comfort me..."

The chivalrous man curled his lips, a rare look of real lightness on his face.It does look a bit in line with his current age.

"If you need me, I can also hug and hold you high."

Chiyo looked at him expressionlessly, this guy was serious for only three seconds.

"Ahahaha... let's forget it."

Asking a girl who is younger than him to hug and hold her high... The knight thinks about that scene and feels bad.

"We are about to set off next, to take our territory back."

The chivalrous man's eyes turned serious, his tone changed from before, it was still indifferent, but Chiyo could hear a rare seriousness from it.

"Our... territory?"

He is still a little uncomfortable with the companionship forcibly judged by the knight, but Chiyo is more concerned about the "territory" behind.

"Well, to be precise, it's where I lived before." He added.

"Eh? Then... who snatched it away?"

"Da Kong", the knight paused for a moment, his eyes were cold, "It's my former companion."

"Companion?" Hearing this word again, Chiyo's tone was slightly mocking.Wanted to mock his gaze.

But when she turned her head and looked at the expression on his face, she suddenly couldn't speak anymore.

For the first time, the blond boy showed an indifferent expression in front of her, like the light flickering on the broken surface of a piece of glass.

However, after a short while, he took it back again, still smiling a little out of tune.

"Ah, because of greed. When it comes to food and resources, one person is better than two"

He seemed to think of something again, paused and continued, "The nun who adopted me before said that greed is the original sin. She said that greed is thinking about more bread after eating the bread she deserves every day." .”

"But in the church, I couldn't get enough to eat every day, and I wanted more bread every day, so she said that everyone is greedy, and everyone here cannot be saved."

His expression was indifferent, as if he didn't care much, but Chiyo didn't think so, "Here, anyone, no matter your companion, may raise a dagger at you at any time for just a little food."

"If it was you...you wouldn't do such a thing to your companion," Chiyo said.

She didn't know why she said such words, maybe she trusted him, maybe it was just a formal comfort.Perhaps, more inclined to the former.

She knew that what the boy in front of her showed to her might be an illusion, but she also felt that what he said about exchanging names as companions was not a lie.

At this age, Chiyo is not an indifferent person, she even said that she is easily moved.

If I have to say it, the chivalrous man chose to establish a so-called "companion" relationship with her, probably because of her innocence...

This kind of thing seems too redundant and attractive here.A knight who has grown up in a few years may not be tempted by this, but for him now, it seems that there is something in the dark that guides him to choose to believe her.

Exactly how, still needs the test of time.

Both were silent for a while.

"Perhaps," the chivalrous man replied.I don't know why, and I didn't agree to it in order to win the trust.

"Then, let's go first."

"Um"

On the way, Xia Ke told the "newcomer" Chiyo a little about the place.

He said it was called "Meteor Street," and it was actually a huge dump.This is the dumping ground for all garbage, including people, which is also a kind of "garbage".

He said that "the strong prey on the weak" is the only constant law here.

He said that resources are scarce here, and powerful people can obtain supplies for survival.The weak ones, like them, can only survive by picking up garbage, and may die in the war for food.

Life is not valuable here. Although children's lives will not be taken away at will, they will not receive special care.Sometimes the competition among young children is the fiercest.

No one will shed tears for the loss of a life.If you are not strong enough, you will die, and there is no room for resistance.

…………

In the end, he had this to say:

Everyone wants to go to the outside world, where they say there are beautiful clothes, tall buildings and delicious food.There is no need to rob, there is a law to protect life.

"One day we'll go to the outside world too, right Chiyo?"

"kindness."
