One Piece I want to go home

Chapter 19 - Chapter 18
Murphy asked what the listener was, but the system didn't answer.

She searched through the entire illustration book, but couldn't find the fruit she ate.She asked Ryder side-by-side, but the other party didn't know anything.

A few days after the two of them settled down in the study, the woman named Ruili came to make trouble.

Only then did Murphy know that the wedding of Ryder and Ruili was scheduled for next month.

"Me and these two brats, you choose. It is impossible for me to live with monsters...I only give you one day to choose."

That night, Murphy was going to take Delinger away.

I would rather demolish ten temples than destroy a single marriage.

But Ryder, who saw through her mind, blocked the door.

He said, "A child is more sensible than her. Thanks to you, I can see clearly that she is just this kind of person."

After that, the relationship with Ryder and Ruili fell through, but within half a month, Ruili married Lini, and within a month, the two of them divorced again.

At this time, Lini inherited an inheritance from a distant relative. They got married, and they didn't get divorced.

At first, Ruili ran here after being wronged, but after being mocked by Murphy and threatened by Delinger, she never dared to come here again.

The condition of Lini's inheritance is to take care of his cousin's two children, named Pei Jin and Xia Qi.They seem like two good kids at first, but they quickly start causing trouble in the town.

"Like their uncle."

Everyone says so.

Murphy felt that the names of Pei Jin and Xia Qi were very familiar, but she was busy with her own affairs and didn't think much about it.

Delinger's education has been settled, and Ryder is in charge.

Don't look at his vicious appearance as a pirate, but he seems to be highly educated and has a lot of knowledge at his fingertips.

When Ryder taught Delinger, Murphy said no, she was going to practice by herself, but Ryder pressured her to study.

It's okay if you don't study, but after learning, you find that Murphy has a lot of knowledge that is more advanced than the current one, which shocked Ryder.

After going back and forth, it was Murphy who taught them both.

Day by day, they lived peacefully, but Murphy became visibly anxious.

What the hell is going on with that system?

Didn't it say that apart from Delinger's education, she can also cultivate and become stronger?
Ryder is a rough guy on the surface, but he is actually a careful person.One day, when they were alone in the store, Ryder asked Murphy.

Murphy hesitated for a moment before answering.

"I... want to go home. The real hometown. But for this, I must become stronger. Learning is useless. I also know that this condition is a bit rude, but you can talk to Mr. Sheriff and let him Teach me some fighting skills?"

"Where is your hometown?"

"... very far, very far."

"The Great Route? No... Maybe it's the new world..."

"almost."

"No wonder you have so much knowledge...and if you want to go back there, you really need to become stronger. However, there is no need to go to Ladd, I will just leave it to you."

"Eh?"

From that day on, while teaching Delinger to write, Ryder began to train Murphy's basic skills.

Originally, Ryder disagreed with Murphy starting training at such a young age, but Murphy's attitude was firm. After starting training, Ryder clearly realized that Murphy's speed and strength were obviously different from ordinary people. He even asked Mo Fei Fei, is it a murloc?

"How is that possible!" Murphy said helplessly.

However, Murphy also realized that Ryder was not an ordinary person.

At least Ryder is systematically trained.

And judging by his usual behavior, it's more like...

navy.

However, there was no navy stationed on this Swallow Island, so Murphy had no way of asking.

But to be honest, Ryder is very caring for both Murphy and Delinger.

Although the townspeople repulsed Delinger, and even loathed Ryder later, Ryder kept smiling and never complained.

Rao Delinger, who only listened to Murphy at the beginning, now also listens to Ryder...

Although only occasionally.

A year later, Murphy accidentally got Ryder's birthday from a neighbor, so Murphy decided to give Ryder a birthday present.

It was a crystal diamond painting pasted together by Murphy and Delinger. Crystal diamonds of all shapes, sizes and colors were arranged to form the portrait of Delinger.

It was a bald head with a wide grin.

The picture frame is also made of crystal diamonds.

Because the color and size of the crystal diamonds are strangely incongruous, and the frame is also made in the same way, which makes the whole painting look ugly and vulgar.

Even Murphy felt that he had no artistic talent and wanted to give up.

When Ryder received the gift, he smiled from ear to ear, saying that it was the most precious gift he had ever received, and then the next day, he even hung it at the cash register to show every old customer who came here Show off.

Murphy covered her face. She really didn't expect Ryder to be so happy and hang the painting in such an obvious place.

But when she saw the customer's awkward smile and dismissive attitude when she turned around, Mo Fei was relieved.
-
That year, Murphy was eight years old and Delinger was four years old.

It was snowing heavily and it was cold outside.

Swallow Island, as the previous people told them, is an island with long winters.They happened to come when the climate was most suitable. After living here for a long time, they would find that this is an island that cannot be separated from snow and ice.

Ryder thought the two might be too much, but...

Delinger is more resistant to freezing than Ryder because of his fighting fish physique.

As for Murphy, it is because her hometown has the reputation of the Northland Snow Country. She has experienced the extreme cold of minus 20 degrees. For the average minus [-] degrees here, it is just a small case.

On the clear morning after the snow, the two children only wore a cotton padded jacket, left the study, pulled the cart, and climbed up the hillside.

The white snow behind him left deep marks.

Murphy still remembered the first strange old man they saw when they landed on Swallow Island.

Now they know each other's name, Wolfe.He is a scientist who likes to make some weird inventions. Although 99 out of [-] items are defective products, the remaining one can be applied by others, which is considered a success.

Wolfe and Ryder seem to be old acquaintances, but Wolfe has a withdrawn personality. He not only lives outside the town on weekdays, but also rarely communicates with the townspeople.

Ryder had been sending some spares before, but now it has been replaced by the two of them.

This is also part of the exercise.

"Mr. Wolfe, we are here to deliver things." Murphy shouted outside the door, "The medical supplies that Mr. ordered have also been delivered."

"Ah, you can put it outside."

"Mr. Wolfe, are you sick? Do you need me to ask a doctor?" Murphy asked, pushing the door open.

The stove in the room was burning brightly, and the exaggerated old man dressed as if he was on vacation in Hawaii was standing by the bed, and a child was lying on the bed.

But because the child was covered tightly, Murphy couldn't see the other's face clearly.

"It's ok. I just found a kid in a boat adrift, and it looks like he's just overtired."

"Child? Do you need my help?"

"Ah, no need, no need." Wolfe said, and then threw two money bags over, "One is for this time's expenses, and the other is filled with my special wine sweets, go back and take it to Ryder, but It doesn't matter if you eat them all... Hahaha!"

"Thank you, Mr. Wolfe."

"What's the matter, it's GIVE&TAKE. Next time, I need your help."

"If you have anything to do, just call. We will come next week at the same time."

Murphy turned and said goodbye.

"Hey, sister, that child was picked up, is it the same as us?" Delinger was a little curious.

"We were not picked up, we were taken in." Murphy said, pulling the cart and heading home.

But at this moment, she didn't know what she had missed.
