Late at night, in a room with flickering lights, Qingli on the bed suddenly opened her eyes, frowned slightly in confusion, then gently raised her hand on Robin, and carefully got up and out of bed.

Then, she waved slightly towards the dress beside the bed, and the silver-white gauze skirt floated over on its own, lightly covering her slender body. I was just about to put my hands into a bun, but thinking that I would have to come back and go to sleep later, I was too lazy to waste the effort and walked out with my black hair hanging down to my waist.

Of course, she didn't forget to put up a defensive barrier in the house before leaving.

Although she won't go far, it feels more peaceful this way.

Qingli thought her movements were light enough, but she still underestimated the degree of Robin's vigilance. After she left, Robin opened his eyes and looked at the shimmering crystals floating in the air around him. After a while, he turned over again and closed his eyes again.

Qingli walked downstairs to the room and saw Kuzan lazily leaning against the wall, looking up at the moon in the sky.

"Ha, it's so rare! You actually stay up at night and come out to admire the moon. Such a sentimental thing is completely unlike what you are capable of!" Qingli came to stand next to him and teased with a half-smile.

"Ah la la, do you think I am a very unsentimental man in Miss Ah Li's heart?" Kuzan asked with a smile.

"I don't know if it's romantic or not, but you like sleeping so much that you would give up your sleeping time to admire the moon. It's not a surprise!"

As Qingli talked, she wanted to imitate him and lean against the wall, but found that no matter what, her long hair would be pressed behind her. In the end, she had no choice but to puff out her cheeks and shake her head helplessly, giving up this plan.

"Ha..." Kuzan, who had already withdrawn his gaze from the sky and focused on Qingli, looked at her series of actions with a smile.

The silver moonlight shone on her body, blending with the silver-white gauze skirt on her body. It meandered down like water waves, making her whole body seem to glow, which made him couldn't help but think of the scenes described in the book. A black-haired, snow-skinned elf.

Beautiful and powerful, mysterious and dreamy...

The girl in front of me fits the description in the book perfectly. If there really is such a creature in the world, it probably looks like her.

"What are you laughing at? Tell me, what do you want from me?" Qingli raised her head and looked at Kuzan. If she hadn't sensed the breath he accidentally released, she wouldn't have come here specifically.

Kuzan did intend to draw Qingli out, but he did not immediately answer Qingli's words, but asked: "Miss Ahli just said that appreciating the moon is... um ~ sentimental... is that the word? So, Ahli Does Miss Li also like to admire the moon?"

Qingli thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I prefer to look at the stars in the sky than to admire the moon."

"Oh? May I know why?"

"I just like it, there are so many reasons why!"

Qingli complained reflexively at first, and then replied thoughtfully: "If I have to say it, it's probably because whenever the bright moon hangs high, it often obscures the stars, and at a glance there is only one left in the sky. The solitary moon is too deserted, I still prefer the liveliness of the sky full of stars."

"So, Miss Ah Li likes to be busy and doesn't like to be alone?" Kuzan tilted his head and asked softly.

"Of course, although there may be people who enjoy being alone in the world, I can't do that. I'm most afraid of being alone, and I hate being alone the most..."

Having said this, Qingli paused for a moment, sighed imperceptibly, and then said:

"I always have to raise my head when talking to you. It's so tiring. No! I also want you to feel what it's like to raise your head to talk to me. This is only fair!

"That's right. Talking at other people's doors so late will disturb people. Let's go there!"

As she spoke, Qingli raised her hand and pointed to the row of tall tung trees not far away.

Kuzan curled his lips and smiled, and followed Qingli to the tree in a good-natured manner, lazily leaning on the tree trunk again, while Qingli flew to the treetop and sat down, looking down at Kuzan contentedly.

"Ah la la, Miss Ah Li, are you flying too high?" Kuzan said helplessly.

Facing Qingli who was standing on the top of a ten-meter-high tung tree, even he, a "giant" nearly three meters tall, really needed to look up. I haven’t experienced this feeling for a long time!

"Haha, this is the best! If you feel too tired to raise your head, you can try to fly up with the moon step. It will also let me see how long you can hold up in the air with the moon step~" After saying that, Qing Qing Li smiled proudly at Kuzan, regardless of whether he could see it or not.

Then, she raised her head to look at the night sky, unconsciously swaying her feet, kicking the hem of her skirt fluttering in the wind, feeling the joy of climbing high and looking far away, with her eyes wide open.

Kuzan could guess Qingli's expression at this moment just by listening to his tone. He couldn't help but smile and shook his head. He reached out and scratched his hair. He was about to continue saying something, but when he looked at Qingli's face shrouded in the moonlight again, When he looked down at the hazy figure that seemed a little out of reach, Kuzan suddenly realized that the distance between him and her seemed to be so far away.

This girl, no, maybe he shouldn't call her that. After getting along with her these days, he already knew that this girl who looked like she was only seventeen or eighteen years old at most was actually an adult. Although there is no trace of mature restraint belonging to an adult in her body, she always has a natural childishness, and her face is always filled with a smile, as if she has no worries. After looking at her for a long time, you can't help but I feel envious, and at the same time I hope she can stay so happy forever.

She seems to be an extremely approachable person, and this is true. She is sincere, enthusiastic, kind, generous, and informal. It is easy to get along with others. Although she is a little naive and ignorant of the world, she knows how to be considerate and tolerant of others. . He even felt that if she wanted to, she could probably become friends with anyone in the world.

But, they are just friends.

She is easy to get close to, but her heart is not here, but seems to be floating in a distant place, unable to get close or touch... That kind of inadvertently reveals alienation and indifference to the whole world, like ice The undercurrent beneath the layer, although hidden by the ice, is always real.

He could feel that in her heart, there seemed to be an invisible boundary separating her from everyone in the world... Oh, no, not everyone, there was one exception, Nico Robin.

Although he didn't know what the connection was between the two of them, Nico Robin's existence made him understand that maybe the boundary was not unbreakable, so he couldn't help but test it by making her angry. Where is her bottom line? So much so that the two of them, who apparently could get along peacefully at first, now quarrel whenever they meet, and occasionally even turn into fights.

But he had to admit that whenever this happened, he felt extremely happy. Because only at this time will she look at him intently, and only he will be in her bright eyes.

It was also in the process of irritating Qingli every day that he realized again what a bad and perverse temper he had. Before that, he had almost forgotten how rebellious he used to be.

It's a pity that Miss Ah Li's temper is too good. No matter how angry she is, it's only temporary. Her temper comes and goes quickly, and she won't really care about anything with him. Such a temperament that does not hold grudges not only makes him feel cute, but also makes him feel extremely regretful.

If she can completely remember herself in her heart in this way, it would actually be very good~

Thinking of this, Kuzan couldn't help but smile a little self-deprecatingly. He couldn't believe that such a proud man could have such an almost humble thought.

Ah la la, this feeling of being completely influenced by others, and even actively hoping to be influenced by others, is really not a good feeling, but...

Kuzan raised his hand and touched his heart. Even though he was aware of this, he didn't want to resist this feeling at all~

Even...a little happy?

This feeling of fear and enthusiasm is really amazing~

Perhaps, as Miss Ah Li said, he seemed a little lonely...

Hmm, maybe more than a little~

So, it turns out that deep down in his heart, he has been looking forward to the appearance of such a person who can make him no longer lonely?

And when this person really appears in his life, even just appearing is enough to make him feel satisfied.

Or is it because this person is Miss Ah Li?

"Hey, I thought you were asleep again, but it turns out you weren't! Then what are you doing? Tell me what's the matter. If you don't tell me, I'm going back!"

Kuzan was lost in thought for a long time. After seeing enough of the clear night sky and realizing that he had not moved for a while, his first reaction was that he had fallen asleep again, so he had no choice but to fly down from the top of the tree and land on On the branch closest to him, I prepared to wake him up, but found that the man still had his eyes open, looking like he was in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking.

It turned out that she had misunderstood~ Qingli quietly stuck out her tongue, but then she reminded him to come to his senses, and then sat down.

The height of this branch was almost the same as Kuzan's height, so she could still be slightly taller than him after sitting down, which felt nice.

Kuzan, who came back to his senses, looked at Qingli's high-spirited appearance, and the corners of his lips were unconsciously stained with a smile. There was also a different kind of tenderness in his eyes half-hidden under the shadow of the tree. Well~ What's the reason? It doesn't matter anymore, what matters is that he recognizes this lovely young lady now and that's enough!

If you think about this clearly, the upcoming separation will not be so difficult to accept.

Kuzan adjusted his posture slightly, turned sideways to face Qingli, and asked, "Miss Ahli will leave here tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, Robin and I stayed here to wait for a reply from the World Government. Now that the reply has been received, there is no need for us to stay here anymore."

Speaking of this, Qingli was still a little angry. It was the World Government that had a problem, but she didn't want to just change it. Instead, she warned her not to provoke the World Government and asked her to hand over Robin. , I really don’t know what to say!

"What about you, Kuzan? Do you want to continue your vacation or go back to the Navy Headquarters?"
