[Hunter] The Meteor Legend after Lydia's Life Record

"The child is crying?" Kuro Rock said, "What does that have to do with us?"

"Go and see!" I called out, pulling his hand out.

"No." Kuroro said decisively, "It's troublesome to hear."

"Just to see what's the trouble?" I yelled strangely, pulling him to act like a baby: "You come with me!"

Kuroro looked helpless "I've seen through everything": "If there is a child, you might pick it up if you see it—isn't it endless trouble?"

He made it clear that out of sight is out of mind.

I was startled, and thought that Ku Luoluo really had a long-term view, one step counts as three steps, and even thought of how to raise the child after picking it up.

I didn't think about it that much, but I felt uneasy if I didn't see it clearly, so I tugged at his sleeve and said, "I don't know what's going on! Ku Luoluo, come and take a look with me—he's crying terribly , If you don’t understand, I’m going to have a nightmare!”

I don't know since when, Kuroro has never been able to hold me back in these trivial matters.Probably because he was too concerned about major issues and was too lazy to argue with me; or he thought that if I really had a nightmare at night, he would be the one who tormented him. In short, he finally compromised. With a tired expression on his face, I was dragged by my hand and walked all the way to the place where the crying sound came from.

Following the crying, Kurolo and I turned over a mountain of garbage and saw a mess.

The two tents were burned to the point where only black skeletons remained, and a few limp corpses were scattered around the ashes of the bonfire. Beside one of the corpses of a woman, a child about two years old was crying on his back, crying Hoarse, out of breath.

We encountered quite a few small settlements like this along the way, with at least seven or eight people and as many as ten or so people, carrying tents and cooking utensils, migrating along the edge of the second district with their families, wandering for a living.

"It seems that it has just been ransacked." Kuroro watched from a distance, and concluded, "Except for that child, there is no one alive."

I dragged him down the rubbish mountain, approached the crying child, saw her blood-stained skirt, and whispered, "Is it a girl? There's blood all over her body..."

Kuroro took a few glances, pointed to the female corpse next to her and said, "It's probably her mother's blood, who hid her under her body before, so she wasn't killed together."

The child was crying and crying, opened his eyes and saw us, opened his two glass bead-like eyes, stared at us in a daze, without panic, just opened his mouth wide, and hiccupped non-stop. Son.

Taking a closer look, she looks very cute, with soft short black hair and black eyes like glass beads. Although her face is thin and dirty, she has delicate features.The little girl still had two big teardrops hanging from her eyelids, but she looked at us without fuss or cry, pure innocence.

I haven't seen such a small cub for a long time, and it looks so good that it makes people feel pitiful.I couldn't help feeling compassionate, and squatted in front of her for a closer look, and said to Kuroro, "It's quite cute."

As I said that, I hesitated and stretched out a finger towards the little girl, cautiously lest she suddenly bite me.The little girl blinked, stretched out a small hand to grab my finger, and then suddenly showed a big smile.

I was heartbroken by her kitten-like strength, and smiled and gently pulled my hand back.A short-bodied child grabbed his fingers and held on, with little strength, he staggered two steps towards me, and when I stopped pulling, he stopped in a daze, with big black eyes Flickering, with a dazed and innocent look on his face.

"Oh, it's so fun." I said in surprise.

"Krollo, Lydia, what are you looking at?" Lan's voice came from behind.

The companions came over one after another.

"A child?" Fei Tanqi asked.

"It's an orphan." March looked around and said.

Pike squatted beside me, gently touched the little girl's head, and said with pity, "It's so pitiful."

"She's pretty cute, isn't she?" I turned around and said.

"It's not bad." March said.

"So what?" Fei Tan asked suspiciously, "You don't want to raise it, do you?"

"...it feels very fun." I put my chin on my knees and whispered.

"I knew it." Kuroro muttered, trying to make me quit: "Lydia, do you know how troublesome it is to raise a child?"

"I think she's pretty good, just give her something to eat... right?" I was not sure.

"Forget it, Lydia, our food is also limited." Yan persuaded.

"It's so small, it can't eat much." I retorted muttering, stood up on my knees, pointed at the little guy who was obviously an orphan, and said to everyone: "Besides, you can't leave her here alone, right?" ?”

"Lydia is right." Pike agreed.She was squatting in front of the little girl, holding her little hand, and they were smiling at each other.Clearly Pike liked the little girl.

"Just pretend you didn't see it?" Fei Tan showed no mercy, "It has nothing to do with us, why bother?" He also said to Franklin, "You think so too, right?"

"I don't care." Unexpectedly, Franklin, who looked so cold and big, rebelled. Looking at the little girl who was "giggling" at Pike, his eyes were soft: "It's fine to wear it."

By the way, when we met Franklin, he was carrying a small oil bottle, and he was a qualified dad. If he likes children, it makes sense.

"Tch," Feitan glanced at him unhappily, his eyes flicked past the expression in my eyes, and asked Kurolo, "Krollo?"

Kuroro looked at me and said helplessly: "We can't always take her with me. You can pretend that you can't see her when you leave now. If you take her away, what will you do in the future?"

I could tell that Kuroro's attitude was relaxed, and I immediately expressed my opinion: "I don't want to take her with me all the time, just to play for a while. Later..." I rolled my eyes and said, "When we find a place to take the children, Just leave her behind!"

"You see, even the dead are taken in in the second district, so there must be a special place for taking children, right? Otherwise, what should we do with so many orphans." The more I talked, the more I felt feasible, and I cheered up: "When we get tired of playing, we will sell her. , don't delay anything!"

This will satisfy my desire to raise a little cub for a while, and will not drag the team down for too long, and it can also help the little girl leave here to find a place to go, which serves multiple purposes!

"There is indeed such a place." Lankis confirmed softly.

Kuroro pondered, and asked again: "Then who will take it away? Let's talk about it first, don't expect me to play with her."

"Me, me, me!" I said with my hands up.

"I can help too." Pike turned his head and said expectantly.

Franklin said, "I'm in charge of the food."

"I can sew clothes...and diapers." Madge, who had been silent just now, said.

She stood behind Pike and looked at the little girl with her arms folded, her face was expressionless and she seemed to be disgusted, but her eyes were shining - you must know that Madge had a whole box of dolls in Liuying Street.

Kuroro sighed, squatted over me and squatted in front of the little girl, reached out and poked the little girl's cheek, with a slightly interested tone: "Then raise it."

I was overjoyed, cheered, and excitedly lay on his back, put my arms around his neck and said, "Hey, if you don't raise him, I won't poke it for you!"

"Who cares." Kuroro was afraid of getting into trouble, and immediately withdrew his hand and said: "Take her, let's go."

The little girl we met on the road was taken back to the temporary station by us.

The bonfire was lit, and the little hamster-like cub gnawing on bread was placed between Pike and me, and the surrounding or obvious or hidden eyes kept sweeping towards her.

"How old do you think she is?" I guessed, "One year old? Two years old?"

"It should be a little bigger than it looks." Lan said with experience, "Because of malnutrition, the children in the second district develop late. Like Yan, when he was eight years old, he was only a little bit bigger." He compared his hands to some distance .

"Brother!" Yan said angrily.

"Does she have a name?" March asked.

"Little baby, what's your name?" Pike bent down gently and said to the little cub.

The little cub has been cleaned long ago and put on a new dress made by Madge and sewn from the old clothes I contributed, with his hands on his knees and his big watery eyes blinking Looking at us, she looks pure and well-behaved, but she doesn't speak.

"It can't be dumb, right?" Fei Tan gloated.

"No, she cried very loudly." I hesitated, "but I never heard her speak."

"I've never heard her cry." March said.

"...Little baby is so good, it won't cry when someone comes." I said, this is fate!

"It can't be intentional... this brat." Fei Tan doubted.

"Fetan!" I couldn't laugh or cry.He is very prejudiced against the baby, hey, unloving guy.

"You mean...conspiracy?" Franklin said.

"Probably not. This kid doesn't look like it." Lankis said softly - he is 14 years old and is in the period of voice change. Although his voice is not as ugly as "rooster voice", he is still used to whispering, and he can speak as little as possible. Say less.

"It's more likely to have a problem with IQ." He said such harsh words gently.

"No way?" I said in horror.

"It looks pretty smart." Pike also said, "Eating and changing clothes can be done by myself, so it's very worry-free."

"Maybe, the radiation in the second district is very strong, and many children are born stupid." Yan said, holding his chin.

"Then what should I do?" I nodded the little cub's head, feeling a little worried—it was all in the past, but at this moment, we also have radiation in the second district.Since you picked it up, you have to protect it, okay?

"Is it because of this?" Kuroro, who was sitting next to me, suddenly said to himself, "Lydia, give me that bag of gems."

Kuroro took the gems out of the bag one by one and held them in his hand, while saying, "If I'm not mistaken, there is probably a power stone in it."

What Kuroro is talking about is a special gemstone that can infuse thoughts and form a tangle outside of an ordinary human body. Now I, Yan and Lanqisi all carry similar things.

One is not, two are not... Under everyone's gaze, Kuroro tried more than a dozen in a row, until we all thought he guessed wrong, and finally heard him say: "I found it!"

On his open palm, the edge of a pink crystal was dyed a light and mysterious purple.

"That's it." Kuroro said, turning the power stone completely purple, and threw it into the cub's arms, saying: "What a lucky little guy."

The "lucky little guy" didn't get angry when he was hit. He grabbed the energy stone with his short and fat hands, held it and waved it up and down, "giggling" with a very happy smile, and he was very able to entertain himself.

"But what's her name anyway?" I said, "How about we give her a name?"

"What's up?" Pike asked.

I looked at the purple crystal in the little guy's hand. Such a power stone, which is bigger than her palm, is very precious, and this one is quite standard and beautifully shaped like a drop.

"Call it Water Drop?" I tentatively said, "No, it's so ugly! How about...let's call it Xiao Di."

"Xiao Di, it's very nice." Pike nodded.

"Not bad." March also said.

Everyone else had no objection: "You can call the little devil you picked up whatever you want."

"Then call it Xiaodi." I looked at the little cub whose face was flushed by the flames and whose black eyes were as pure as glass, and said with a smile.

"Little drop, little drop! Come here!"

I walked backwards on the road, bent down and kept beckoning.

A three-headed little girl in a lace dress stumbled towards me, her plump hands stretched forward, and her black eyes were crystal clear.

"Good girl!" I caught Xiaodi who tripped and jumped towards me, happily lifted her up and turned around, and praised: "Xiaodi is running more and more steadily!"

"Haha——" the little girl was thrown into the air by me, she was not afraid, she let out a crisp laugh, and called, "Lydia!"

"Yeah, that's right."

The little cub named Xiaodi stayed in our team. From being unable to speak at the beginning, only knowing how to cry and laugh, to now we are finally taught to call everyone by their names, which has made remarkable progress.

Although no one in the team has raised such a small child except Lan, who is a half-baby, so it is impossible to compare whether Xiaodi's development is slower than ordinary children.But for us, this is not important-it is enough to get a lot of novelty and joy in the process of teaching the little girl how to speak.

Up to now, even Feitan, who looked down on Xiaodi the most at the beginning, would stand still and give a low "um" when the little girl stumbled and ran over and called "Feitan", and let the little girl pull her. Catch the hem of his clothes.

Of course, Xiaodi's favorite is me, Pike and March, plus a Franklin.

With a sense of responsibility like raising a small animal, I devoted the most care and care to Xiaodi—I was a loafer at first, and now I don’t even play games, I chase after the little cub every day, and face her All kinds of unknowing embarrassments are unbearable.

Pike is also similar to me, except that she regularly learns to read and play with Franklin, and she takes care of Xiaodi's eating, drinking, and sleeping, which is much more thoughtful than me-Pike's character is really gentle, almost virtuous, compared to Next, I bring Xiaodi more like playing with a child, laughing and laughing is very unreliable.

As for Madge, there is a steady stream of little dresses that are more delicate than the last, and it is easy to please the little one.And Xiaodi occasionally wets his pants. Of course, no one is willing to wash diapers. Madge will snatch other people's clothes during the robbery, sew them into simple diapers, and throw them away one by one.From this perspective, Maqi is an indispensable big man for Xiaodi.

And Franklin...he has an advantage that none of us have, he can throw Xiaodi high in the air, and then catch her firmly-Xiaodi is very courageous, and he loves this game very much.

To be honest, Franklin used to be really fierce, and I always kept him at a distance, but now because I tease Xiaodi all day long, I quickly get to know him.The big guy is unexpectedly more careful than the three of us girls, and the food that the little drop can eat is mainly found by him.

"Franklin! Franklin!" Xiaodi clapped his hands and shouted after being put back on the ground by me.

"Uh, Franklin doesn't have time to hold his head high right now." I took a look at the tall figure who was concentrating on studying Mind Skills with Pike, and led Xiaodi to the front, saying in a good voice, "Come on, let's go find Kurolo. "

Although Xiaodi can call people by name, it is still difficult to recognize people. He repeats "Ku... Luoluo?" When he walked past Lanyan brothers and sisters, he kept reaching towards Yan.

Probably because Kanyan is also a girl, and it is easy to confuse her with Maggie and Pike.

But I held Xiaodi's hand tightly, coaxed her in a low voice: "Let's go", and dragged her to continue walking, not letting her grab a cigarette.

Smoke doesn't like small droplets.

In the small group, even Fei Tan, who is the most impatient to deal with children, would only gently pull Xiao Di's hand away when she rushed over to grab her clothes, pull out the corner of the clothes, and then walk away indifferently, while Yan would be unhappy. Pushing Xiaodi away, even kicking him once, his displeasure was palpable.

Xiao Di is indeed a bit of a silly child, and she won’t cry when she is beaten. Except for the time when I found her by crying, I have never seen her cry again.Moreover, she doesn't recognize people, and often treats Cigarettes as me or Madge or Pike to get close.

Here, Xiaodi was raised by us alone, not a companion, and there is nothing I can do if she doesn't like it. I can only watch her as I follow Xiaodi most often, and don't let her come to Yan's side.

The only time I really got angry was when I took Xiaodi away from Yan, and found that there were several broken leather and bloodshot nail marks on Xiaodi's arm under his clothes!

I took a deep breath at the time, and looked at that little fool again, and laughed!

I'm furious!

Then I had a big fight with Smoke.

I said, "Why are you abusing children so viciously", but she said that I "don't care about my pets being a drag on others".In the end, because of the fucking reason of "it depends on the owner to beat a dog", Yan was suppressed by Lan and apologized to me.But Xiaodi's scratched arm is nothing - I can't beat back a cub that I just picked up two days ago, and then split the team...

Although I really want to.

After all, no one took Xiaodi seriously.Small things that depend on others to take care of them for food, clothing, housing and transportation naturally have no status, and can only be regarded as appendages on my whim.

This is really nowhere to go.When I was in the nursery school, children bullied people much more than this. There was no other way but to roll up their sleeves and fight until the other party was scared.

Ku Luoluo and I used to walk step by step from being beaten by others to a bruised nose and a swollen face.

So now, for Xiao Di, a silly kid who only knows how to be cheerful, I can only keep a close eye on her and walk away around Yan.

Hope she grows up well and fast...like us.

"Xiaodi," Lanqisi bent down and touched Xiaodi's head, "it seems to have gained weight."

"Really?" I smiled and squeezed Xiaodi's tender face, pulled her off Lankis' lap, and pushed her towards Kuroro.

Xiaodi doesn't recognize people very well, but he can tell the difference between beauty and ugliness. When he came up, he hugged Lanqisi...'s thigh, but now I turned around and didn't pick him. He turned his head and hugged Kuroro again.

This is one of the mysteries of keeping pets.Lankis doesn't just push Xiaodi away, it's for my face, and at the same time, I can't let Xiaodi rely heavily on him... Of course, it will be fine if I rely on Kuroro.In the same way, Feitan treats Xiaodi lightly, not because he likes her much (at least not all of them), but because she is "Lydia's child".Therefore, I know how much of Yan's bullying Xiaodi is aimed at me, but I just don't want to care about it.

"It's really sinking."

Kuroro took Xiaodi by the back collar of his clothes, pulled her off his lap, shook her in his hand, and put her down pettishly when the little guy let out a "giggle" laugh.

"What did you stuff her with? It's like a piglet." He put a finger on Xiaodi's forehead to prevent her from sticking to it, and said to me.

"I didn't feed you anything." I shrugged my shoulders and called out in a drawn out voice, "Kurolo..."

"Let's talk first!" Kuroro interrupted me, "I won't tell stories anymore."

My intentions were exposed, so I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut and pull Xiaodi to look at him pitifully, hoping that he would soften his mind and change his mind.

"Do you know the trouble now?" Kuroro was indifferent, but gloated.

I had no choice but to admit it.

Since taking in Xiaodi, my life has really been enriched a lot, but the problem is that it is too full.Children are full of energy, even if Xiaodi is still quiet in a daze, she needs to find something to do to pass the time.I've always been hot for 3 minutes, and everyone else is busy with their own affairs. Taking care of Xiaodi is occasionally a chore.

Before, because Kuroro would read the "Bible Stories" brought from the future for a while on the road, when Xiaodi and I walked around him boredly, he would take the book and give us Tell a paragraph - Kuroro's talk is lively and interesting, it is really a rare pastime on the road!

However, Kuroro was as enthusiastic as me for 3 minutes, and his patience was quite limited. After talking like this for two days, no, he threw his hands away impatiently.

Right now, I'm pulling Xiaodi's eyes wide and small, and I really can't find anything to do. It's just like two tails, one big and one small, hanging behind Ku Luoluo.

"Haha." Lankis walked beside him, laughing out of nowhere.

I looked over strangely, and he held back a smile and said, "The three of you are like a family."

So I looked at Kurolo, then looked down at Xiaodi, and suddenly said, "Oh, we are both black."

Seeing that Kuroro was also looking back, I rolled my eyes, squatted down and hugged Xiaodi, put on a pitiful look, raised my head and said to Kuroro: "Father! Since you found your stepmother, you don't love us anymore My sister and I couldn’t hear the story even if we wanted to…”

The smiling face of Lankisi's "stepmother" was completely cracked, and Kuroro's forehead twitched violently.

"...That's it. Cain killed his brother Abel, lied to God, and was forced to go away from his homeland and wander on the earth forever. However, he bargained with God and got the brand of seven times reward-everyone who kills His people will be rewarded seven times. It's over." Kuroro closed the book and said.

Finally, Kurolo told us the story.

At this time, everyone sat around the bonfire and listened to the story from "Garden of Eden" to "Cain Killing Brother".

"Seven-fold retribution, is it actually Cain's telekinetic ability?" Feitan thought.

"Passive defense capability." Franklin commented.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with Cain, it's just that God is stronger." March said calmly.

"Isn't it justice, but power? Interesting interpretation." Lankis smiled.

"The same thing happened on Meteor Street. Being deported to the second district is already a very severe punishment." Pike thought deeply.

"Cain is still too impulsive." Lan sighed. "At least I should have expected that God would take care of me."

"Cain is so pitiful. He didn't do it on purpose..." Yan Qi said angrily.

Everyone expressed their thoughts, but I was the only one who tilted my head and felt distressed: This story is too famous, everyone tells it like this, so... "I don't have any ideas at all!"

The Bible says so.

"Xiao Di, do you understand?" Kuroro lowered his head and asked Xiao Di.

Xiaodi nodded numbly, his glass-like black eyes reflecting the light of the bonfire.She still didn't speak, she seemed to understand everything, and she didn't seem to understand anything.

The author has something to say: I re-watched the old animation, and the eyes of Xiaodi are indeed reddish brown.but!I have the impression that it is also double black!So I flipped through the comics again... Haha, the comics are all black!So it's double black.This is it.

Update at 11 o'clock tomorrow night, roll up your sleeves and start writing your graduation thesis! !crying~

Ps said weakly, I don't have black smoke, it's okay to bully children, if it wasn't for Lydia's raising, Fei Tan would have kicked Xiaodi away.This matter has been reversed in the future.

Finally, Happy Lantern Festival everyone!
