I, the Heir of Heroes

Holding the note specially written by the mother-in-law in their hands, the two walked along the straight road according to the route marked on it.

"Na~ Nai...?"

A little confused and scratching my head.

His mother-in-law would teach him to read and write in his spare time, but without that stable temperament and talent, Mu Jun has not memorized a few characters until now.

"This is Nara."

"Hey, Jia Luo, how do you know?"

There was a slight pause in the steps he took, and then Jia Luo continued to move forward, with a cross in front of him.

"Go left."

It's not that he doesn't want to answer this question, but that he really doesn't know how to answer it.

——When did I learn it?

He had an answer beyond common sense in his heart.

Recalling the moment when he came into contact with this kind of text, from knowing nothing to knowing it instantly, Gallo silently changed the topic.

"We have arrived."

The gate that appeared at the corner meant that the two had arrived at the market in the town.The product photos projected around in the market attracted Mu Jun's attention, making him forget to continue exploring this issue.

The bazaar is very clean, the pure white porcelain floor reflecting the light can't see any obtrusive garbage.Numerous storefronts opened neatly side by side on both sides of the road.There are so many fresh meat and vegetables that Mu Jun has never seen before, and curiosity is shining in his fluttering little eyes.Of course, it's just curiosity.

He knew the situation in his home, and the numbers marked under various commodities made him sensible to hide some thoughts in his heart.

Silently seeing all of this, Jia Luo didn't say anything.So, the two started shopping according to the list of items that their mother-in-law made.

The rising sun shoots warm sunlight to the earth, reflecting colorful colors through the transparent glass cover above the head.

Two small figures shuttled between the rows of the store, and they only needed to purchase various commodities through the terminal card that the mother-in-law gave Jia Luo.While weighing the price/performance ratio and considering the remaining balance in the card, the packages carried by Jia Luo and Mu Jun became full.

Until the last item on the list is put into their arms, their task is considered complete.

Walking out of the gate of the market, Mu Jun, who was wearing thin clothes, was still sweating even though it was a cool autumn.I don't know if it's because of the morning's rush, or the hustle and bustle of the market.

Came to an alley corner in the street of the town, in the shade where the sun could not shine, Mu Jun had just finished eating the bento dry food he carried with him.

"Give!"

"……what is this?"

"Ice Cream Cone~"

"Ice~cream~?"

Repeating word by word, Mu Jun took what Jia Luo handed over.

"Well, there are still some for sale in the small shop at this time, and the mother-in-law still has some spare money in her card, so I bought one."

"Woo~ delicious!...Hey, Jia Luo, don't you want to eat it?"

Tasting without a teacher, Mu Jun showed a happy expression of enjoyment.But when he noticed Jia Luo standing leaning against the wall with his hands behind his back, he couldn't help asking:

"I do not like to eat."

"Oh"

After a small reply, Mu Jun turned his attention to the cone in his hand again.

But when he saw the gradually melting ice cream, Jia Luo couldn't help persuading him with Mu Jun's cherishing look on his face.

"Eat it quickly, this is not a very expensive thing, it won't taste good after it melts."

"Woo~ okay."

Staring reluctantly for the last time, Mu Jun stuffed the rest into his mouth.The originally hot and sweaty body gradually dissipated as the coldness entered the abdomen.

"Okay, let's go back, it's hard to go when it gets dark."

"..."

However, Jia Luo, who turned and returned, did not perceive the figure following behind.

"what happened?"

Standing in front, Jia Luo turned his head and asked, his brows were slightly frowned with a hint of doubt.

"...Hey, Galo..."

The movements of stumbling and speaking were very awkward, and Mu Jun, who lowered his head and dared not look directly into Jia Luo's eyes, pieced together the words bit by bit.

"We...can we go and see the nearest school?"

"..."

As if knowing that his request was a little too much, Mu Jun didn't approach Jia Luo, and fiddled with the corner of his clothes in the silence waiting for an answer.

The light of desire was unprecedentedly dazzling in Jia Luo's eyes, and the words that should have been rejected immediately were replaced in hesitation:

"...Okay, I promise you. However, we must go back immediately after we finish watching."

With this answer, the pupils on the opposite side who were gradually gloomy suddenly burst into excitement, and the immature little head nodded fiercely in agreement.
