In the end Lux ​​reluctantly believed it.

......

In the Church of the Illuminators at this time, led by Moff, the children launched a new game.

"Let's play hide-and-seek! You can't leave the church, let's pick out two little ghosts!"

After deciding the rules, the children immediately started guessing.

The two little ghosts who were in charge of finding people were selected, and the other children immediately dispersed and ran towards all directions of the church, preparing to choose an excellent hiding place.

And Mofu has a lot of experience in the game of hide and seek.

When he played before, he found a position that would never be found.

Holding a little brown-haired girl in her hand, her name is Moses, she is two years younger than herself, and she was abandoned by her parents just like herself.

When he came to the church, he didn't cry or make noise, which made Mofu seem to see himself in the past.

"Quick, be careful, come up."

Mofu came to the hiding place, which was a recess in the wall above a large flower pot, and only the size of a child could hide in it.

After hiding with Moses, the two children were quiet, not even daring to raise their panting voices.

At this time, they heard footsteps.

Moff raised a finger to signal Moses to be quiet.

Moses nodded his head immediately.

I thought it was the little ghost who came to look for them, but it seemed to be an adult from the Illuminator Church.

"Oh, more and more children have been sent in recently."

said one of them.

Another said: "I heard that in the next few days, there will be more delivered."

"Can we take care of them? What's going on this year? Why are there so many abandoned children?"

"Who knows... This is just one of the problems. The funds allocated by Lord Barrett a while ago are almost used up, but now there are so many mouths waiting to eat."

"It's really not possible, I can only give up part of it."

"Indeed, our capabilities are limited..."

There was indescribable melancholy in the two voices.

And Mofu could tell that the reason they were frowning and sighing was because of themselves and the group of children.

They are ready to give up part of it.

How did you give up?

He suddenly felt a little cold in his hands and feet, and a sentence flashed in his mind unconsciously.

"This is the world of adults, you are a burden, you drag them down..."

Moses next to him stretched out his hand and tugged on Mofu's cloak, shrank his body, and asked in a low voice, "Will we be thrown away again?"

Mofu came back to his senses and quickly showed a smile: "No."

He knew that this place was different from the family he was in before. The adults here were very kind and would never abandon them.

"I'm so scared."

Moses lowered his head, and bad memories were brought up again.

Mofu stretched out his hand, squeezed the little girl's trembling hand, and said firmly, "Don't be afraid, I will definitely think of a way."

"Ah."

Moses smiled innocently.

Look at this smile.

At this moment, Mofu, who was only seven years old, knew what a sense of responsibility was. He wanted to protect Moses and children like her.

I am not a burden.

As long as we are not burdensome.

Mofu kept talking to himself, he knew what encumbrance meant, so, wouldn't it be all right to just get rid of these two words?

Chapter 70 It is recommended to drink more to help development

This time I bought a lot of ingredients.

on the carriage.

Lacus looked at the vegetables, meat, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other seasonings in the bag, and asked seriously, "Are you sure the ice cream made from these is delicious?"

Lu Qi replied seriously: "Don't worry, it must be delicious."

Yet even Lux could see it.

This guy must have taken the opportunity to even buy his food for the next few days.

And she pays the bill!

Lux was already regretting her impulsiveness in her heart.

In Lu Qi's heart, he was complacent about having a few days of food for nothing.

Returned home soon.

At this time, the time should be around five o'clock in the afternoon. It is not yet evening, and the road is still spacious and bright at first glance.

When I got out of the car, I happened to meet Fiona who was walking this way.

She was dressed in a minimalist black and white collocation, she looked extremely glamorous, and her delicate face was as cold as flowers on a snow-capped mountain.

"Good afternoon, Miss Laurent."

Seeing this, Lu Qi greeted him.

In the past few days, I have been going to the library at noon, and the relationship between me and Fiona is not as estranged as before.

"Hello Miss Laurent~!"

Lacus also greeted warmly.

Seeing the two of them, Fiona knew that they had just come back from outside, she nodded slightly and said, "Good afternoon."

Immediately, Lu Qi asked: "Looking for me?"

He felt that it was unlikely that he could meet Fiona by chance at his door, and she seemed to have come here specially.

Sure enough, Fiona nodded again when she heard the words: "Yes."

Lu Qi said: "Then go ahead and have a seat."

Open the door and welcome people in.

Lu Qi asked Urna to entertain first, because making ice cream still needs several steps to prepare, and it needs to be frozen afterwards, so it's best not to waste time.

He first came to the basement of the big villa. According to Urna, there is a small ice store here, but he has never seen it before.

There was a chill in the basement. After walking a few steps, I saw a small door half the height of a person. The material of the small door was different from the surrounding walls at first glance.

An ice room like this is a common means for nobles to avoid the heat. It can make ice cubes and freeze food in it. It is considered a good refrigerator.

In ancient times, people used saltpeter to make ice.

Efficiency is slow, so ice is a luxury in summer.

But this is Runeterra, the method of making ice is very different.

Lu Qi opened the small door, and immediately a chill came over his face. There was a burst of icy frost inside, and this refrigerator was made of another material.

It is said that it is made of a material called "ice mining stone" in the Freljord. This kind of stone freezes when it encounters water, and it maintains a low temperature all year round, which is very magical.

It is not common in the Freljord, but it is always cold there, and some tribes will look for ice stones specially.

Every summer, he would go to the border of Demacia and trade with it.

Usually get a decent pay.

"Not bad, no problem."

Lu Qi put his hand in and checked the temperature. The closer he was to the inside, the lower the temperature.

And it's cold outside.

Lux, who was following behind her butt, couldn't help asking at this moment: "Is it all right to have this?"

"Of course, the first requirement for ice cream is ice."

Lu Qi nodded and replied.

"Oh."

Lacus didn't ask any more questions.

Back upstairs, Lu Qi waved and called Urna over.

Looking at the maid in front of him waiting for his order, Lu Qi said: "I will only demonstrate the next operation, you have to memorize it."

Hearing this, Urna nodded seriously.

Finally, under the expectation of Lux, Lu Qi started the process of making ice cream.

Demacia also has a lot of things to relieve the heat in summer, such as the ancient Sushan Mountain, but the workmanship is very simple.

There are also ice cubes that are ground into a smoothie and topped with a layer of fruit juice.

Or juice the fruit and freeze it for tasting.

These are common means of relieving the heat, but it is precisely because of this that the ice cream can be set off quite extraordinary.

Ordinary ice cream is actually very simple, just complete a few steps in sequence. First, heat milk, milk powder, cornstarch, white sugar and a little salt, mix and stir until it becomes thick.

Then it is boiled on fire, and finally frozen.

But Lu Qi, who has LV6 cooking skills, naturally has many new tricks. In order to increase the taste of ice cream, he specially bought a variety of ingredients.

Fiona was sitting on the sofa, looking at the three people who were very busy back and forth, with some puzzled eyes.

Not sure what they are doing.

He also watched with some curiosity.

After working for a while, Lux gave up first, there were too many steps, and she couldn't remember clearly.

So ready to enjoy the final results directly.

Walked to the living room and sat opposite Fiona.

At this time, the temperature of the tea that Urna had brewed was just right.

Fiona picked up the teacup, blew on it lightly, and then took a sip, her blue eyes suddenly lit up.

"This tea...is very good."

She took another sip, savoring it carefully this time.

This tea seems to be no longer as simple as very good. It is no exaggeration to say that she suddenly felt that the tea she drank before was completely incomparable.

Her heart couldn't help but gradually calmed down, a thin warm current seemed to surround her body, the fatigue of these days was gradually dissipating, and suddenly she felt more enlightened.

"Does it taste good?"

Seeing that Fiona seemed to have a high opinion of the tea, Lux picked up the cup out of curiosity and took a sip.

Tasted it, then nodded: "Well, it should be delicious."

Whether tea is delicious or not, she can't taste it. In her opinion, most of the tea tastes the same...
