Lark's

But, he went straight to the corridor and went back to his room.

I couldn't help but sigh.

I don't know if I should check it out as an omnivore.

10. Eight...

The New Year temple fair is indeed very lively.

Most families seem to be used to listening to the zero hour bell at the temple fair to welcome the New Year together.I bought a windmill in front of the windmill stall, and just finished writing Hibari Kyoya's name when I heard Fujita Yu's voice.

"Sister Ito!" Holding a chocolate banana in his hand, he trotted up to me, stretched his neck and looked behind me, "You're coming to the New Year's Temple Fair too! Where's the kid from the Skylark family?"

I smiled and touched his head, "He didn't come."

The Fujita couple followed behind Fujita Yu and bowed to me.I also bowed to them.

After chatting for a few words, we said goodbye to each other.I inserted the windmill into the windmill stand, and just let go of it when I felt the wind blowing.A whole row of red windmills are spinning, and the names on the windmill blades are also blurred.Suddenly I heard hurried footsteps behind me, I turned around and found Yu Fujita running behind me again.

"Sister Ito, this is for you!" He handed me an uneaten chocolate banana. He waved his arms and tried to describe it to me, "It's delicious!"

"Thank you, Xiaoyou." I couldn't help laughing, I rubbed his hair, "We must work harder in the new year."

"Yeah!" He nodded vigorously, and secretly glanced at the windmill behind me: "The children of the Skylark family will do it too!" After shouting, he turned and ran away. He waved his hand, "Sister Ito, goodbye!"

I stood where I was and nodded to him, and waited to see him back to his parents before I looked down at the chocolate banana.In fact, as an Italian, I also have a preference for sweets.It’s just that the blood of the Lark family has always had a mild taste. I have lived with them for more than a century, and I haven’t touched sweets for a long time.

Take a bite and taste it, it tastes really good.

I walked around the temple fair slowly, but I ate it without knowing it.When it was almost early morning, I was about to go back. After thinking about it for a while, I decided to buy a chocolate banana for Hibari Kyouya.When I came to the booth of chocolate bananas, I happened to meet local snakes in this area collecting protection fees at various booths.

If I remember correctly, it should be the Noda family.

"No, Brother Noda! That's her!! She is the woman who crushed Yoshihara's hand bones with one hand last time—" I took the chocolate banana from the stall owner and handed him a few coins , I heard someone from the side shouting in a panic: "Yun, the butler of the Yunque family..."

I took the chocolate banana and planned to leave, but when I turned around, I was stopped by a group of young people.

They all held weapons such as chainsaws and baseball bats in their hands, and this scene was indeed somewhat familiar.

It should have been more than a hundred years ago.At that time, Miss Aurora was only two years old. When Mr. Arnold and Mrs. Sheila were away from home, an army from a rival family came to attack Mr. Arnold's villa.But it was different from now. At that time, they were holding guns in their hands.

I have forgotten how I evacuated safely with Miss Aurora, but I was deeply impressed by the close combat instruction that Mr. Arnold gave me before that.He only coached me once.That was after I already had a proud marksmanship, Mr. Arnold ordered me to carry a gun, and he confronted me with his bare hands.Clearly holding a weapon, I was easily knocked to the ground by him within a second.

"Remember one thing, Ollie." He slowly threw my gun away, and there was no emotion in his lake blue eyes, just looking down at me calmly, "The only weapon you will never leave is the yourself."

Apart from this sentence, Mr. Arnold gave me no other guidance.I also asked Mr. Arnold why I need to master shooting skills and fighting techniques.After all, at that time, the agitation brought about by the British feminist movement had not yet affected Italy.In Sicily, women still have the only right to be in the kitchen.Even in Mafia wars, women are a nominally protected group.

However, Mr. Arnold just looked up at me: "Aside from physical strength, do you think you are inferior to Venetto in any aspect?"

Veneto was the postman who brought two newspapers to Mr. Arnold's every morning.He is an alcoholic and a gambler.I thought about it, and finally shook my head.

"Then don't ask such a stupid question." After getting my answer, Mr. Arnold closed the book in his hand, put on his coat and walked out of the study without looking back.

At that moment, I thought of him standing quietly on the second floor of the orphanage overlooking us.For the first time, I felt that what I got was not respect, but equality.

"Maybe I'm going to take up your time, Ms. Ito." Noda, the leader of the group of young people, suddenly said, pulling my thoughts back, "I just want to know one thing. Hibari Kyouya is so arrogant in my territory, Is it because the Skylark family is ready to control this place?"

I sighed and looked up to meet his gaze.

"Sorry, sir. I don't know." I answered him slowly, and I had to make it clear to him, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, "And in fact, apart from being related by blood, the Skylark family does not constitute a Families. Each of them is separate from the other. If you really want to know the answer, you should ask the kid."

Thinking that time was running out, I stopped staying and bowed to him: "Excuse me for my farewell."

For some unknown reason, this group of young people backed away consciously when I approached, making way for me.I left through the human wall, vaguely remembering that it was not as easy as this time to evacuate with the two-year-old Miss Aurora.It's a pity that Miss Aurora, who experienced such a catastrophe when she was a child, passed away when she was in her early 30s.

In retrospect, when Mr. Arnold and Mrs. Sheila passed away, I felt more overwhelmed than I had ever felt, but not nearly as sorry as I was when Miss Aurora died.What a strange phenomenon.Obviously, when I saw that Mr. Arnold was also getting old, I once felt panicked.And Miss Aurora's life ended at her most glorious moment, and I found no consolation.

like myself.Even if you have eternal youth, you don't feel happy.

A little girl wearing a mask ran towards me, looking reckless, tripped over a crack in the stone slab as she passed me, and almost fell down.I reached out to support her and smiled at her: "Be careful."

It turned out to meet her beautiful lake blue eyes.

Blonde hair, lake blue eyes.She wears a mask, yet instantly reminds me of Miss Aurora.

Really like ah.

"Thank you sister." The girl hurriedly thanked me, and ran away with me.

Just as I was about to continue walking, I suddenly heard a girl's immature voice behind me:

"Arrivederci, Oriella (Goodbye, Oriella.)."

It's my native language.

I froze for a moment, turned around, and couldn't find the girl anymore.You can only cross the sea of ​​people and see the rows of red windmills turning in the wind from a distance.

On the way back, I stopped in front of a phone booth and called Talbo in Australia.Before his voice came through the receiver, I smiled and said, "Happy New Year, Talbo."

"I'm still wondering who called in the middle of the night..." He was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed like a cough, his old voice was hoarse, "It's been a while, Ollie. Japanese New Year's Eve Isn't it going to start in an hour?"

I smiled, "You know I'm in Japan."

"As long as Mr. Arnold's younger generation speaks, even if you have retired, you will rush there." There is a smile in his tone, "I don't think you will ever want to rest in your life, Ollie."

"That retirement was suggested by Mr. Hibari Akai." I was a little helpless, but I couldn't deny it, "But I have made a decision now, Talbo. After you are buried, I will really retire. At that time, I will find you A suitable husband will give birth to a child." After a pause, I thought of Kyouya Hibari, and couldn't help but smile, "But please persist for a while... because I still want to watch Kyoya Hibari grow up. "

Talbo chuckled and said, "Then you will probably be disappointed... I won't die when his children grow up."

"Hopefully." Even if the kid is only eight now.

Looking up by accident, I saw Kyouya Hibari across the road.He stood alone under the street lamp for an unknown amount of time, wearing a pair of jeans and a light coat, with a scarf around his neck, half of his face was covered behind the scarf.When I looked at him, he was looking at me.He put his hands in his pockets, the tip of his nose was a little red from the cold, his pair of beautiful phoenix eyes stared straight at me, even if they caught my sight, he didn't move away.

Unexpectedly, he also came out.

I said goodbye to Talbot and hung up the phone.After walking out of the phone booth, I bought another can of coconut milk in front of the vending machine, and when I came to Hibari Kyouya, I handed it to him together with the chocolate banana: "Sorry."

In fact, I'm not sure if he came out to find me.But I always feel that I should apologize to him.

Hibari Kyouya glanced at me, didn't say anything, just took the coconut milk, turned around and looked at me alone.
