No more talking, just turn your head away.

Uesugi Hideichi comforted Mianma a little, then returned to the counter.

Sit down and read the newspaper.

...at this time.

In a corner that Uesugi Hideichi doesn't know.

A girl aged twelve or thirteen, 121, fair complexion, light brown long hair, only 10 in height.

He was hiding in the darkest corner, staring at the outside world secretly with his big curious eyes.

She was wearing a one-piece red dress, with a rough mending bag on her back, and her long hair was tied into a ponytail with plastic clips.

This is a young, beautiful, heroic girl.

"Is this the world where humans live?"

Arrietty looked around with curious eyes.

This time, she sneaked into the human world without telling her parents.

Ready to "borrow" from humans

A little food and the sugar that I and my mother love to eat.

But when I came in through the wooden door, I don't know what mechanism was touched.

It actually caused a crisp wind chime.

Fortunately, Arrietty is more alert and quick to react, otherwise she would definitely be discovered.

"call"

Thinking of the...thrilling situation at that time, Arrietty let out another long breath.

After she relaxed a little, she began to look for where she could borrow what she wanted.

"According to Dad, sugar and food are usually stored in the kitchen.

So I have to find the kitchen first..."

Arrietty thought so, and soon passed through the fragrance wafting in the air.

Found the tavern kitchen.

She calculated the distance between herself and the kitchen.

About ten meters.

Arrietty looked at the back kitchen, frowning and thinking.

A distance of ten meters is only a road for...human beings.

But for a small person who is only a dozen centimeters tall, it looks extraordinarily long.

Especially in a place full of humans.

It is more difficult to cross this road.

As a novice in borrowing things, Arrietty is in trouble at the moment.

She didn't know that she should cross this distance and continue to borrow things from the kitchen.

Or choose to give up and leave here quietly.

"No, there is not much food at home.

Mom also complained several times, saying that she hadn't eaten sugar recently.

I can't give up, I have to borrow something today!"

Arrietty clenched her fists and showed a determined expression.

She made up her mind and started to act.

A girl in a red dress bent over a dark corner of the tavern.

Walk cautiously towards the back kitchen.

But just a few steps away, Arrietty suddenly felt a chill down her back.

A creepy feeling rose in my heart.

She looked up subconsciously, and then saw it.

On the roof of the tavern.

A crow with pitch-black feathers and blood-red eyes exuding a breath.

He stared straight at his side.

It was discovered! Arrietty was startled, and her heart was filled with horror.

"quack"

Spotted Crow did discover this little girl who was only 10 years old.

It quacked twice, reminding Uesugi Shuichi who was sitting at the counter.

"What's wrong, Spotted?"

Uesugi Shuichi, who was sitting at the counter, put down the newspaper in his hand and asked suspiciously.

Spotted Crow quacked twice again, and looked towards a corner of the tavern with its bright red Sharingan.

Uesugi Shuichi followed its line of sight, but saw nothing.

He looked away and thought about it seriously.

Immediately, he clapped his hands.

"I see."

Uesugi Shuichi looked at Madara with apologetic eyes.

"Sorry, I forgot to give you food today.

I'm going to do it right now."

After speaking, he put down the newspaper in his hand, got up and walked into the back kitchen.

Going to prepare food for Little Spot.

And Arrietty, who was hiding in the corner, saw the boy get up and walk into the kitchen.

The panic in my heart subsided a little.

But she wasn't completely relieved yet.

After all, the bloody-eyed crow is still a terrifying monster to the villains! Fortunately.

Madara Crow may also be hungry, after hearing what Uesugi Shuichi said.

He no longer cared about her, and took back that penetrating gaze.

"Great"

Arrietty saw that the crow didn't look at her anymore.

A boulder that was pressing on my heart suddenly loosened.

Immediately afterwards, it was as if she had just run a marathon.

Sitting down quite weakly.

After a while, this...little girl finally regained her strength.

She showed a somewhat depressed and dejected look.

"No, without my father's guidance, I still can't borrow things.

Or just give up.

go home"

Arrietty thought of quitting in her heart.

She stood up immediately and was about to leave the place.

In the future, I will let my father find out the situation here, and then come to borrow things.

at this time.

"I see you, the gentle male voice with a touch of magnetism rang in her ears.

Arrietty heard the voice, and immediately.

Like being struck by lightning.

She was stunned on the spot! She turned her face away slowly and looked towards the source of the sound.

Then, I saw a white-haired boy with a clean and handsome face.

He squatted down and looked at himself with a gentle smile on his face.

Chapter 239 Arrietty's Purpose! (Put on the shelf for subscription!)

Arrietty looked at the boy in front of her in shock.

He was so scared that he couldn't even breathe.

As a little human who borrows things, she has been warned by her parents since she was a child.

Absolutely cannot be found by humans.

Otherwise, it is very likely that it will be ravaged by human cruelty.

All in all, the end will be extremely miserable! So, at this moment, in Arrietty's heart, there is nothing but...shock.

It's just... endless fear and timidity! She didn't know that after she was discovered by this human teenager.

what will he do.

Will he catch himself like a bird and put him in a cage, or will he kill him directly like a mouse? Or... other more miserable encounters? While Arrietty was frightened, many kinds of guess.

She was very scared and wanted to run away from here directly.

But the body was too frightened to listen to it.

He could only stand there blankly, waiting for the "disposition" of the human youth in front of him

"Hello, my name is Uesugi Shuichi."

After a while, the boy in front of him didn't take... any action.

Just greeted Arrietty with a gentle voice.

Uesugi Shuichi Arrietty came back to her senses for a while, and heard the boy say her name.

She was taken aback for a moment, and then seriously looked at Uesugi Shuichi's face.

There was only a pure and gentle smile on the other party's face.

It doesn't look malicious at all.

Arrietty looked at the boy, her panic-stricken mood calmed down a little.

She was a little nervous and swallowed her saliva, and moved back slowly.

Prepare to take a few steps back before fleeing directly.

Uesugi Hideichi saw the girl's secret behavior and smiled slightly.

directly debunked her thoughts.

"Do you want to sneak out of here?"

It was discovered! Arrietty couldn't help being shocked when she heard his words.

The footsteps that moved back also stopped.

She then looked at the boy in front of her again with eyes full of vigilance.

After confirming that the other party really has no malicious intentions.
