My Mom Sandy Love Song

Rhodes said as he walked towards the deeper and darker part of the alley.

Just then, he seemed to remember something.

Turning his face slightly, Rhodes sneered at the empty back.

"—"

Rhodes left.

Afterwards, a man wearing a black cloak came out slowly from the transparent barrier.

The man was tall and thin, with strong muscles and bones, as if he was worried about something, with a distressed expression on his face.

Although this man named Ara Ye Zonglian usually has such an ascetic expression, but today he is extremely depressed.

Part of the reason is that the "chess piece used to awaken the origin of the two rituals" that I found was destroyed in such a preemptive way.

On the other hand, it is——

"Is that... laughing at me?"

……

……

……

A few weeks later, in the ward of a hospital in Guanbuzi City.

In the white space, there is a young woman sitting on a hospital bed.

Her long hair was smooth and black, and her appearance was correct, but her complexion showed a sickly defeat, and her eyes were very empty.

Since there was no light in the pupils, the woman still turned her head and looked at the scenery outside the window through the window.

Everyone in the hospital is familiar with this state of women, but no one has ever paid attention to her.

In fact, she has maintained this state for more than 10 years.

She has been bedridden since she was a child, trapped in a cage called a hospital and a disease.

The woman's name is Wu Tiao Wu Hui.

An ancient pure-blood, the ancestor of the Wu Tiao family seems to be an expert in prayer, and his nature seems to rely on curses to survive.

The surname Wutiao [Fujoh] may have been transferred from Unclean / Wujing [Fujoh].

And Wu Tiao Wuhui's family line will also be cut off in her generation.

Not long after she was hospitalized, her parents and younger brother died unexpectedly.

Later, it was said that her father's friend paid for her medical bills.

Wu Tiao Wuhui had never seen a man whose name was as hard to remember as a monk.

Today was the same day as usual, Wu Tiao Wu Hua's weakened body was trembling slightly on the hospital bed.

At this moment, the door that should not be visited by anyone was opened.

Although no footsteps can be heard, the visiting figures have a strong sense of presence.

The visitor was a boy.

Thin physique, with a flirtatious and sunny expression on his face.

Wu Tiao Wuhui had observed many people in the hospital, but she had never seen anyone as unpredictable as him.

I'm afraid—this person is an existence that I will never understand.

Rhodes sat down beside the hospital bed, took out an apple from his pocket, and then without saying a word, started peeling the apple.

It's like, "When it comes to the sick visit scene, it's peeling apples, so I'm going to peel apples too!"

3 minute later.

"Ah, it hurts! I got it!"

Rhodes yelled while holding his fingers, and then he finally turned his head to look at Wu Tiao Wu Hua.

At the moment of being stared at by him, Wu Tiao Wuhui felt a frightening sense of occlusion in his heart.

Even she, who is not afraid of death and only worries about being confined here for the rest of her life, feels the uneasiness of death from this young man.

"Human, do you want an apple?"

The brisk voice echoed in the ward.

Wu Tiao Wu Hui slowly turned her face to him.

Apple?

No matter how you look at it, it's a prank. A naughty elementary school student from somewhere is planning to play tricks on me.

If it was normal she would definitely think so.

However, Wu Tiao Wuhui nodded inexplicably, took the apple and gnawed it in small bites.

—peeled like a dog, she thought.

Rhodes looked at her expressionless eating, and said, "Wow...you actually just picked up the apple given by a stranger and ate it. Big sister, you are the type who will be played by men at will and then thrown on the street."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Wu Tiao Wuhui choked on the sour and sweet apple juice in his mouth and coughed.

Isn't it the apple you gave me!

"Well, but big sister, you can be thankful that you have a stupid head this time."

The devil's work of delivering forbidden fruits to humans has been completed, Rhodes stood up from the hospital bed and stretched himself.

"After eating this apple, your disease should be cured, and of course your eyes too."

"!?"

Wu Tiao Wu Hui was taken aback.

Not because of what the boy said.

Not because he discovered the fact that he was nearly blind.

Rather, there is a powerful magic that hangs over his otherworldly words.

Let Wu Tiao Wu Hui think that everything he said is true.

As long as she eats this apple, she will be cured.

Freedom can be regained, wishes can be fulfilled——

Go outside the ward and see the world with your own eyes.

"..."

Wu Tiao Wuhui was convinced that he would eat up the apples.

Then the boy left.

Although he didn't give his name until the end, Wu Tiao Wu Hui made one thing very clear——

The teenager did not act out of kindness towards himself.

My life or my dreams mean nothing to him, and he doesn't care.

That child must have a concept of good and evil that I can't understand, as well as an understanding of death and life.

But in that case, is it still human?

Saving me must have meant as little to him as blowing away ants that had fallen into the water.

Even so, Wu Tiao Wu Hui's heart was still full of gratitude.

Even if this gratitude is worthless to the savior.

……

After saying goodbye to Wu Tiao Wuhui, Rhodes walked slowly in the bright corridor of the hospital.

At a certain corner, he passed a tall man in a black coat.

The magician with a monk-like name rubbing shoulders with Rhodes, Araya Soren is currently concentrating on something——

Regarding another "chess piece used to awaken the origin of the two rituals" he found.

Neither of them noticed the other.

After they walked out for about ten steps, the man stopped.

He turned his head abruptly, staring at the direction he came from just now with that poker face.

Soon, the man saw it.

Putting his hands in his trouser pockets, he stood upright in the crowd, facing his own boy.

It was the person who had killed Bai Junlio a few months ago, looking at him with a provocative expression.

The flustered emotion was fleeting on Araya Zongren's face, and her eyebrows that hadn't trembled for 200 years twitched.

Afterwards, the boy disappeared into the crowd of the hospital.

At this moment, the magician was finally determined.

"Sure enough...that was laughing at me."

226 Sleeping with a Roots Mom

After leaving Aozaki Touko's office, the group came to Ryogi's house.

It was getting dark, and Rhodes decided to take Fujino to her house to disturb her for the night.

The Liangyi Family is located on the outskirts of Guanbuzi City. Surrounded by bamboo forests, the Liangyi Family's mansion was built according to the specifications of a samurai residence.

Just by walking on the ground, it is impossible to judge how big this mansion surrounded by high walls is.

There is no way to properly grasp the scale of a building without taking a plane and seeing it from the sky.
