Bewitched: Age of Beasts

After the sunset, night fell, the sky darkened, and it was also when I woke up.

I opened my eyes, looked down, and saw that Xiao Wu was sleeping soundly in my arms. My arm was numb and a slight movement disturbed the sleeping elf.

He opened his eyes slightly, squinting his eyes like a lazy cat, and his voice sounded lightly beside me, "Uh-brother woke up..."

Tapping my chin, I reached out and patted him on the back, "It's time to get up, are you hungry?"

He nodded, and restlessly pressed his hands directly on my stomach, and smiled, showing a row of immature baby teeth, "Brother is also hungry!"

"Yeah——yes—then brother will take you out for dinner, okay?"

"it is good!"

Xiao Wu got up from me in a jerk, jumped off the bed and was about to run out the door. I quickly grabbed his wrist and glanced at him reproachfully.

"Why are you lying? Get your clothes ready and go out."

As I said that, I first helped him smooth out the pressed folds on the black shirt little by little, and then deal with mine.

After smoothing out the creases, the two of us went out together, walked out of the door of the dormitory room, and the cool air outside rushed in.

"Ah—the air is so good." I felt it, took two deep breaths, looked up at the sky, and there were already dots of stars in the night.I don't know what time it is.

"Let's go, go to the restaurant and have a good meal." He took Xiao Wu's hand beside him and walked to the restaurant along the way he came...

……

Half an hour later, Xiao Wu and I stood at the door of the restaurant.

The crystal-carved door was closed tightly, and the orange light was dim when looking inside. Obviously, it was already the time for the school cafeteria to close.

Could it be that I got up too late?

its not right!When I first woke up, I clearly saw the blush dusk outside the window through the curtains of the dormitory.How did you miss dinner so soon?

Xiao Wu stared wide-eyed, and flattened his mouth in aggrieved way, "Brother—do we have nothing to eat tonight..."

I was stunned, how could I know, but seeing his little appearance, I couldn't help but comfort him.

"Don't worry, Xiao Wu, there must be something to eat with my brother? My brother will take you to eat right now."

I don't know where there is a place for us to eat besides the school cafeteria, so I can only hold Xiao Wu first and take him wandering around the campus.

……

An hour passed, and the stars in the sky did not change, only Xiao Wu and I wandering around on the ground.

I didn't feel too hungry at first, but a lot of activities along the way consumed my physical energy, and I couldn't help feeling empty in my stomach, and my legs were too tired to walk anymore.

What does it mean that evil committed by heaven can still be forgiven, but evil committed by oneself cannot be lived?That's it.

Xiao Wu next to me was also hungry, but he had no choice but to follow me if I didn't stop.

"Brother, we seem to have passed this road just now—"

"Ah? Really? You remember wrongly. It's all because of the school's architectural style. Many places look similar." I was stubborn and refused to admit it.

Xiao Wu blinked his big eyes, thinking seriously, "Oh—it seems so." After finishing speaking, he continued to follow me.

Ten minutes have passed...

"Brother, we have also been to this street." He raised his head and pointed to the nearby scenery, "Look, this flower garden, look at these small trees, and, and, there are goldfish in the pool here, a total of Nine, three red, two black, four floral..."

I:"……"

He actually observed so clearly, I had nothing to say, I ignored what he was pointing at without saying a word, and continued to move forward.

10 minutes passed...

"Brother, if we go further, we will be living. Is there food in the place where we live?" Xiao Wu's voice sounded again.

"Ah? Really?" I was stunned for a moment, I really didn't notice the route, I walked around blindly and didn't expect that I happened to be going back.

But do you want to go back?I went back and had nothing to eat.

"Brother, I can't walk anymore, shall we go back?"

Xiao Wu looked at me pitifully, his moist eyes were flushed, it seemed that he was really exhausted.But I have been holding back and not exposing my lies.

cover face,

What a shame, to be seen through by a newborn child, how failed should I be?

But I am not reconciled!As a mentally grown-up person, the first time I took my younger brother out to look for food and failed like this, could I be reduced to a first-rate idiot?

After hesitating for three seconds, I made a decisive decision, took Xiao Wu's little hand, and comforted him first.

"Then let's go back first, but don't worry, Xiao Wu, brother will definitely find something to eat for you!" Make up your mind, whether it's for your brother or yourself, how can you be energetic when you go to school tomorrow if you don't fill your stomach?

It's just getting dark, and I still have time to look for food.

"Okay!" Hearing my decision, Xiao Wu's little aggrieved expression was swept away, replaced by a heartfelt smile.

Ugh--

I sighed in my heart, maybe... it is not a good choice for Xiao Wu to follow me?
