Did the male lead change his ways today?

When Dio's horse caught up with them, he was told by Jonny and the others that Joannis hit a branch while passing through the woods, and she rolled down the hillside, and she has not been found yet.

"...so what are you guys doing here?"

Dio glared at them, already angrier at having to come to JoJo, angrier now.Jojo rolled down the mountain?Of course, she deserved it, it was her punishment for overreaching and racing the boys.

For some unknown reason, Dior felt a little panic in his heart.

what happened?Is he worried about Jojo?No!Such a thing does not exist!He doesn't care about Jojo at all!

Because Qiao Qiao can't die now... And when he and George volunteered to be optimistic about her, this kind of thing happened, George would be very disappointed in him!And George now has a lot of investments. Once Qiao Qiao dies, the property he can get will shrink greatly. He can't take this risk!

Damn JoJo, she can screw things up every time!

Dio scolded her in his heart, but his sense of unease did not lessen. He needed all his willpower to control his emotions. He stared at the two boys sullenly and asked, "...so what? You are just here to search for no purpose , I don’t know how to go back and find someone to help?”

If JoJo was okay, she would have climbed up by herself, or yelled in a voice that everyone could hear.He thought of the noises she made in the house, and he was always the first to scold her for being too loud...

If Qiao Qiao is very quiet, does it mean that she fell stupid?Or passed out?There will be wild beasts in the mountains at night, is she still alive?

"I can't let Diego be alone with Joannes. If he finds Jojo, I can't trust that guy."

Jonny's expression is serious, and Dio finds out his distaste for Diego, they look like he and Jojo's double, which makes Dio can't help but start to assume that if he and Jojo are brothers, they Will the relationship between them be like theirs?

But he's a smart guy... Dio had to agree that Jonny was doing the right thing, which happened to be what he thought too.

"What did you say? Johnny, you always suspect that I will be bad for those around me. That's a baseless accusation."

Diego glared at Jonny viciously, but in his opinion, Dio was the most likely person to threaten Jojo's life, and he was actually very happy about what happened.If he had been the first to find Joannes, he might have taken the opportunity to turn her death into an accident.

"Since you are here, please go back and inform the adults so that Sir Joestar can mobilize the nearby British soldiers and find a way to find Miss Joestar as soon as possible."

Diego decided to find a reasonable reason to send Dio away to prevent him from making any moves, "She should be around here, but we have already searched in the direction where Jojo fell, and we still haven't received a response. It's dangerous, so adult help is still needed."

"Do you think I look like someone who will obey your orders?" Dio sneered, and he suddenly wanted to smash the face of Diego who looked like him in front of him.

"But you are not familiar with the terrain here. If you get lost, it will increase our troubles."

Diego spread his hands innocently, and sighed softly, "This is not the time to be willful, Dio, we must put Jojo's safety first. If you insist on being so uncooperative, if Jojo really What happened, I am afraid it is difficult to define everyone's responsibility..."

Diego showed a very embarrassed expression, and seemed to be troubled by it.And Jonny was staring at the two of them with full guard, and it seemed that they didn't trust anyone.

"..."

Oh, is it?

This blond guy is threatening him?

Dio was full of anger, why didn't he find that there are men who can be so handsome?Compared with them, the naive and ignorant Qiao Qiao is not so annoying.Maybe he should give Jojo a little more patience, especially with the comparison between these two people.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Jonny and Diego slowly and said, "I don't think we can convince each other, so let's adopt a fairer method to decide who should stay how?"

……

Joannes, who was thrown down the hillside, was completely stunned. It took her a long time to wake up from the dizziness, and then found that the sky had turned slightly dark.

Did she pass out?Oops... Are Johnny and Diego looking for her?Are they worried if they don't find it?

Joannes didn't want to cause trouble to others. Although her body was strong enough, she still fell heavily and her whole body hurt.When she tried to get up, she found that her right leg was no longer her own.

Is she broken?

Joannes was startled, and she tried to move her body again, but she felt a sharp pain in her calf, and she couldn't help screaming.

"it hurts--!"

In that case, she wouldn't be able to climb back... and it was getting dark, this was the first time she had experienced this kind of thing, and she suddenly fell into a state of bewilderment.

Horse racing in this terrain was indeed too dangerous, and she paid the price for her recklessness.

Calm down, Jojo.Joannis comforted herself in her heart, and her father and the others would definitely come to her tomorrow, and Jonny and the others might still be around, so she wanted to call for help as much as possible so that others would find her here!

"Anybody! Is anybody here?—"

Jojo yelled loudly, but she didn't get a response.She did not give up and continued to call for help, even her voice became hoarse. When she exhausted most of her energy and was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard an extremely familiar and gentle voice responding to her. .

"Jojo?"

"……Um?"

Joannes opened her sleepy eyes, but unexpectedly saw an unexpected person.

"Eri? Am I dreaming?"

Joannes stared blankly at her childhood friend, and Eli Banrudo, who was carrying the herb box, also looked at her in disbelief. The freckles on the blond boy's face were so familiar and kind.

"Is it really you, Jojo?"

"Eri! Why are you here?!"

Qiao Qiao almost lost control of her emotions all of a sudden, and Eli was her best friend and most trusted partner.The boy's presence suddenly made her feel so safe that she almost wanted to hug Ellie, but she couldn't move now.

"That's the question I want to ask..."

Eli murmured, then put down the herb box behind her back, and explained to her while checking her injuries, "My family and I moved to a nearby village. I plan to become a doctor like my father. Because many patients in the village have recently been infected. Dysentery, so I came to the mountain to pick some herbs to cure the disease, I didn’t expect to meet Qiao Qiao here... What happened? Did someone hurt you?"

"No, I fell off the horse myself."

Joannes shook her head sadly, and when Eri checked her swollen calf bone, she let out a scream of pain, which made Eri let go of her hand quickly.

"I got so carried away, I was chasing speed, trying to overtake my opponent, but because of my inexperience and inexperience, I hit a branch, rolled down a hill, and broke my leg."

Jojo lowered her head in shame, she never went to Dio for comfort, because she knew that she would only get a humiliation, and Dio took pleasure in laughing at her.But she doesn't have to be so nervous in front of Ernie, if she shows her failed side to him, and that gentle child will always give her the best advice.

"It's okay, it's not your fault, Jojo. Life always learns and changes through continuous failure. In fact, you are a very brave girl. In fact, I have always envied you. If people are content with the status quo, It will never change, you will always dare to make adventurous attempts, and you will not back down even if you hit your head badly, this is your strength, Jojo."

Eli comforted her with a smile, and after he checked Joannis's wound, he looked into her eyes and said, "Fortunately, the bone is not broken, I will take you to my father and tie it on your leg for a while The wooden planks should be fine."

"Great, I was afraid I'd be crippled."

Joannes breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt that the pain in that foot became less unbearable.

"But I may not be able to take you back to the village alone, sorry..."

Eli lowered his head in shame, not only because he couldn't carry Jojo on his back, but also because he remembered Dio's words.He cares about Jojo's reputation, and it's inappropriate to contact him.

So Eli promised Jojo, "But I will bring someone to rescue you as soon as possible, you wait for me here."

"Well, it's okay, thank you Eli, I believe in you." Joannes said with a blink of her eyes.

"I'll be back soon."

Eli helped Jojo light a fire next to her, in order to prevent the beast from approaching and make it easier for people to find her.He left the water and food in the medicine box to Qiao Qiao, and then left quickly.

Qiaoqiao finally felt at ease, she started to eat the bread that Eli gave her, and was going to wait for Eli to bring someone back to find her.The warm campfire made her a little sleepy, and she wanted to rest for a while.However, not long after, another unexpected person appeared in front of her.

"Dior? Why are you here?" Jojo looked at him in surprise. Didn't she remember that he didn't participate in their competition?Jojo was very surprised that he would find her, as if it was a very incredible thing.

……What is she saying?How will you be here?

Why is it so incredible to see him?Could it be that Jojo never had any expectations of him?

Dio imitated Jojo's tone in his heart, and felt that strange anger again.

He observed Qiao Qiao's state, and she was as embarrassed as he imagined... But she looked like she had met someone here, someone lit a fire for her to stop the beast?

Dio, who ran all the way over because of the fire, looked at Jojo panting, his face was as gloomy and unpredictable as before when facing her.After he initially judged the situation, he tried his best to control his emotions, narrowed his eyes and looked at Qiao Qiao vigilantly, and after a while he asked, "...I came to you, Qiao Qiao, are you here?" Did you meet anyone here?"
