Chapter 24 Gino's Mother

Use the dark red college robe uniform to cover the skin as much as possible, avoid exposing the injured parts of your body to the air, endure the stinging pain and slowly move to the cemetery where there are usually no people. When ten women appeared on one of the tombstones, they subconsciously hid beside the nearest tree trunk.

Even though it wasn't an embarrassment or a situation that shouldn't be met, Jieshi still tried his best to avoid contact with anyone, fearing that if he made a slight mistake, it would attract the attention of the guards.

Jie Shi looked at the only woman in the cemetery. The whole body was covered with heavy clothes so that the skin on her body was almost tightly covered, and she even wore a turban on her head, covering her hair and face almost completely.

The fabric looks rough and simple, and the color and shape are also very common styles. At least it is definitely an ordinary commoner who has little to do with the nobles.

"Um?"

It was only when Jieshi found that the woman was kneeling on the ground, holding clear water in both hands, holding bacon that could be stored for a long time, and was sweeping the grave sincerely. The name "Gino" was engraved on the tombstone.

Is it mother?

During the several times we met with Gino, although there were not a lot of boring chats, there was never any special mention of family-related matters, so Jieshi knew nothing about the woman in front of him.

"In the past, you were always depressed, but you didn't become lively until recently, and you even said that you wanted to be a captain of the magic unit that everyone admired, but now...my baby, why does God treat you like this?"

A transparent warm liquid flowed from the old cheeks under the years, and the body trembled uncontrollably, and the head was lowered so deeply that it was impossible to see the expression.

Clinging tightly to Gino's tombstone with his hands, he let tears wet the soil and turf underneath.

Can't stay here any longer.

The images received by Jieshi's eyes are strongly affected by this aura in all senses of the body, and the boring time spent with Gino, dozens of challenges, nearly fifty times of small talk and more still appear in his mind. There were conversations that seemed like friends to each other, and all of them came to mind without missing a single one.

At the same time, the feeling of guilt that almost squeezed his heart to the point of rupture forced Jie Shi to leave.

Snapped.

The intertwined formation of weeds just entangled the soles of the feet, tightly wrapping the right foot of Jieshi who was about to leave. When he lifted his right foot, the faint sound of uprooting the weeds rang through the silent cemetery.

"who is it?"

The woman put away the tears from her hands and eyes, and turned her head warily.

Seeing the figure of Jiexi and the green sword hilt on his waist representing a swordsman with a sad expression on his face, his eyes immediately calmed down.

It's not like the group of magicians in Magic Kingdom with sad and angry eyes, exuding the repulsive gaze of "Get out of here".

"Sorry to bother you, I'll leave first."

"Wait, please wait!"

The left foot that wanted to leave quickly was tied up again by the staggered weeds, and the break made a "pop" sound several times, and the center of gravity even tilted slightly because of this, forcing the movement to be interrupted—it was almost as if it was destined, no Allow Jieshi to leave just like that.

Although he really wanted to rush back to his residence and pretend to be stupid, he understood that avoiding it like this might not be the answer, so Jie Shi turned around with a sigh.

But because of the guilt in his heart, he didn't even have the courage to look up at each other, so he could only look down at the grass on the ground.

"I have to apologize, right? Gino."

Maintaining this posture, he took the initiative to approach the woman whose feet were limp on the ground.

Kneeling down, his forehead hit the ground hard and made a heavy "dong" sound.

"The death of your son is entirely my fault, and I am willing to suffer any punishment."

Seeing Jieshi's actions, the woman first opened her mouth to say something, but then closed her mouth and fell silent. After nearly a minute, she stretched out her hands that were often scarred by work, and gently moved Jieshi. raised his head.

"My son, I was taken care of by the captain of the hostage team. Thank you. Because of you, my son was able to die with a happy heart."

Squeezing out a gentle smile from under the swollen pupils, he looked at Jieshi sincerely and gently.

"You, don't you hate me? I... killed your son."

After blurting out these words, Jieshi subconsciously closed his eyes, ready to accept a slap that had a very high chance of hitting him.

A warm and soft substance slowly touched his cheeks, causing Jie She to tighten his cheek muscles even more tensely, to welcome the impact force that was about to strike.

"Son, it's not your fault, it should be the opposite, I want to thank you very much."

However, those hands were soft and warm, gently caressing Jie's cheeks.

"Why...why are you thanking someone like me?"

"In the beginning, I was really worried. The friend Gino made was a swordsman. Unfortunately, when he was burned to death, I really wanted to tear you apart with my own hands. I wished I could burn you to death without leaving any fragments. "

Putting his hands away, he squeezed out a smile again on his red and swollen face.

"But when I saw you, I understood... I was just venting my anger. The real fault should be the system of this magical class, and the real murderers are those high-ranking nobles."

As he said that, that smile no longer existed on his tired face. Jie Shi originally wanted to open his mouth to say more, but found that when he opened his mouth, nothing could come out of his throat.

"Son, it was you who saved my baby... It's just that this world doesn't allow it, and the noble world doesn't allow this kind of thing, so I should be the one who blamed you for my apology and my irreparable thanks."

"Auntie, don't say that... Whoever called me a swordsman should not have come into contact with your son. It is indeed my mistake. If you want to say that I am a murderer, you have to punch and kick me and use magic. I will not fight back."

"Hearing what you said, I knew Ginota really made good friends."

The woman lowered her head, her body trembled, and tears fell from her face under her hair again.

"Gino's child's father used to be a nobleman, but I'm just a commoner...Gino's grades were not good since he was a child, and he was rejected by his classmates. Seeing him go home with injuries every day, as a mother It’s really sad, several times I wanted to let him leave school and go home, but he made friends, I saw a smile on his face, and in just a few months, he…”

Not responding to the woman's heavy emotions, Jie Shi didn't know what to say to comfort him at this time, he could only let the time go by and the solemn atmosphere permeate.

"I hope that after he goes to heaven, he will not be born as a child of the Magic Kingdom again, and will not repeat this discrimination-filled hell life again!"
