Days as a dragon's leg pendant

Thanks to this indescribable loss, the expression on Arnold's face was not bright when he took the "gifts" at the door in.

He didn't know that two boys not far away were fixing their eyes on his face, carefully analyzing his expression.

One of them lamented: "It still looks dissatisfied, I said don't hide it, wouldn't it be fine if I took out that pink diamond that my father kept privately!"

"Hey, he wants to keep the one for his mother... Go back and tell him, Master Joyce is hard to deal with, I'm really worried."

……

When Arnold went to bed at night, he thought he would wait until midnight with a sense of ritual.

He did this all the time in the past, and the palace would not celebrate his birthday, so he secretly hid in the room and lit a candle to make a symbolic wish.Next year will be even more promising.

Sometimes when it was Eugene's turn to be on duty, this warm friend would sneak in with a piece of cake.

Although the wish of a certain year has never been fulfilled, Arnold thought that he would continue this useless sense of ritual until No.18.

This time, however, he fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.

Perhaps it is not necessary to rely on unnecessary "hope" to live.He has started a new life.

So he fell asleep and didn't know that in the middle of the night, Eureka suddenly opened his eyes, walked out of the gate of the castle, raised a pair of huge bone wings, and left here.

"Ano, Ano—Is Ano asleep? Brother Eureka, Brother Rhyme, is anyone awake?"

A "ragged" red-haired man stood in front of the castle's pompous jewel-encrusted gates and yelled.

"Sorry to bother me so late, but I'm on my way to this hour, and I'm sure you guys would rather let me in than keep me out overnight, right?"

Although there was no response, Eugene still said to himself: "Could it be that I must recite a poem?"

He put his palm on the door, looked up at the dark windows, and thought about how to wake up the early sleepers in the castle.

"What's your business?"—a voice suddenly came from behind Eugene.

"Oh, I was shocked." Eugene exaggeratedly supported his little heart, and looked at the person who came, it was the dragon Eureka whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

He showed a warm smile: "Brother Eureka, I haven't seen you for a few days and you are still so handsome. Are you still taking a walk outside at this late hour? I'm looking for Arnold."

"He's not here, what do you want him for?" Eureka frowned slightly, staying there for a moment as if thinking about something, then he walked forward slowly and opened the gate of the castle, inviting Eugene to walk in.

"Huh? Where did he go?" Eugene was surprised, and then his expression became suspicious.

As soon as Eureka entered the door, the dark Versailles instantly became bright.

A teapot led two sets of tea sets and "walked" over dignifiedly, offering steaming black tea to the two.

"...on a trip." Eureka said vaguely, as if she didn't know how to answer.

Eugene swallowed when he heard the words, grabbed his pants nervously with both hands, twitched the corners of his mouth twice, and decided to ask the suspicion in his heart: "It's not you who ate Arnold and lied to me that he was not there Bar?"

Eureka: ...

No matter what kind of "eating" it refers to, it didn't happen.

"What's the matter with you? I'll tell him." He said as calmly as possible.

Seeing the speechless expression on Eureka's face, Eugene seemed to dispel this unreliable doubt.

He laughed dryly, opened the backpack on his body, took out a pink invitation letter from it, and handed it over.

"Here, this one, Arnold asked for it last time. His enemy is getting married, and he said he must go, so I'll get it for him!"

Eureka didn't intend to look at the above text, but just glanced at it casually and saw two parallel names:

Perla & Walker

One of the names is not unfamiliar, it is the "very bad sister" that Arnold mentioned in his mouth when he was ill last time.

I just didn't expect Arnold to have such a plan.

Eureka quietly put away the invitation.

"Did you guys not live here recently? Did you just rush over when you noticed I'm here?" Eugene took a sip of tea carelessly, and screamed twice after being scalded to the tongue—"Aww, burnt to death Me!"

Eureka pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "It's late now, you can stay here tonight."

Eugene took a "hissing" breath, and responded with his tongue out: "But you are not here, is it right for me to live here alone? Are you not afraid that I will cause trouble?"

"It doesn't matter." Eureka just said lightly: "My eyes are everywhere here."

That's right, otherwise how would I know he was coming.

Eugene frowned inexplicably, but fortunately he has always been a rough-headed person, otherwise he would not dare to live here.

"Is there anything else?" Eureka gave Eugene a questioning look, and slowly stood up, "The castle will entertain you thoughtfully, I can't stay, sorry."

Although this is not the correct way to treat guests, who dares to say that the evil dragon is not.

Eugene nodded sharply, responded positively, and said, "Don't worry, I'll leave early tomorrow morning. My leave is about to expire, and I have to go back to my guard."

"Yeah." Eureka nodded politely and was about to leave.

"Hey! By the way, wait, wait, I almost forgot, and this!" Eugene slapped his forehead suddenly, followed him in a panic, and took a long time out of his rag bag——

Take out a small piece of cake.

The paper box outside the cake was already crumpled and a little dirty, exuding a very bad smell.

Eugene: ...

Holding the "weather-worn" cake box that came with him on the road, he was silent for a while, and passed the cake that he didn't know if he could still eat it, and said something in his mouth: "It's okay, it's not for food anyway. Food is just a symbol..."

Eureka took it silently, and heard him say: "Ahem, tomorrow is Arnold's birthday, and I haven't forgotten this old tradition. Hehe, brother Eureka, please tell him 'Happy Birthday' for me. "

"Birthday?" Eureka froze.

"That's right. Alas, in a blink of an eye, Arnold is here too, so fast." Eugene nodded, and couldn't help but start talking: "It's poor Arnold, and I feel relieved that we are living a good life now. In fact, it’s not bad for a small piece of cake like mine, but I think I still need to express my blessings, hehe.”

Eugene scratched his head and giggled, then suddenly stopped his hands as if thinking of something, looked at Eureka sincerely, and said: "Brother Eureka, Arnold didn't have a good life before, his character Well, just, um, how should I put it, there must be something you need to worry about...

But he is actually a very nice person, if you treat him well, he will treat you well, without any bad intentions.

I don't know why I'm saying this, so don't take it to heart.After all, it is a big day that only comes once a year, and this is his birthday, which is very meaningful... Anyway, just wish him a happy birthday for me! "

Eureka listened silently, not knowing what he was thinking the whole time, his beautiful and deep eyes were fixed somewhere, as if in a daze.

However, after hearing Eugene tell his "heartfelt heart", he did not leave in a hurry.

"Birthday...how should we celebrate?"

He gently stroked the crumpled cake box with his fingers, and asked hesitantly.

"Ah? Well...Eating cakes, singing birthday songs, giving gifts, etc., I don't really understand." Eugene muttered.

"Thank you."

"Huh?" Eugene looked confused.

Eureka raised his hand in the air, and the next second he held a heavy gold bar in his hand, he repeated: "Thank you." Then he sent the gold bar to Eugene.

"Take whatever you like, as a thank you gift."

He threw down a very cool sentence, and walked out after speaking, with a pair of bone wings sprouting from his back, carrying the invitation letter and a box of rotten cakes in his arms, and flew away from here.

Eugene, who just stayed where he was holding the gold bar, smirked belatedly.
