Chapter 145: Aren’t we done with you?

When Shino walked out of the hotel, the boredom and confusion in her heart had actually dissipated a lot. She looked up at the depths of the night. The night on Yunjing Kong Island was not dark. The light of street lights, the glimmer of shiny plants and fireflies in the forest, and the starlight falling from the dense branches and leaves, together creating a dreamy atmosphere. Occasionally, one or two long cryings came from the distant forest, like night owls and grey crows, which reminded Shino of her childhood and youth she had spent at Chardolly Manor. At that time, at night, the roars of beasts and the cry of night birds came from the forest behind the manor. However, they could not awaken a girl's sweet dream, because she knew that the owners of those sounds would not hurt her. On the contrary, they were the closest and most reliable ally of the Gestav family since standing on this land.

White Thorn Flower is a barrier of civilization and a guardian of aliens. Shino received such education since she was a child and believed it deeply. When she bid farewell to her beloved hometown, she felt nostalgic and reluctant, but she was more of a confident mentality, because she knew that she had left for a great dream and would one day pass with glorious results, just like the white knight Heberton in the Republican War; or fell down with scars, just like her paranoid father. No matter what the outcome was, as long as she was worthy of her heart, the girl felt that she would accept it calmly, but when she embarked on the journey, she never thought that the white Thorn Flower's gun blade would stagnate and could not show its edge to its enemies, but what was hindering her battle was neither the enemy nor herself, but the companion.

Is she afraid? Or is she escaping? She always faces reality with a game mentality and will not be able to face her true heart, right? In the awake night wind, the girl no longer blames Alice, nor will she take her anger on Linger or others. She is just a little helpless.

Before she knew it, she had gone around to the stable behind the hotel. Perhaps driven by instinct, she wanted to find her closest friend and told her depression. Brandy was eating grass quietly in the stable. Her fresh forage made in the morning for dinner, bean cakes made of soybeans and mung beans, white bread wrapped in fresh fruit and maltose, and even a pot of cereal porridge, mixed with fish bones and grated powder from beef bones. As the Shenma Sun Snow on the Snow Mountain, she had to eat at least five times a day to satisfy the physical consumption of daily activities and maintain a well-proportioned and toned body shape.

Hearing the familiar footsteps, her ears moved, then quickly raised her head and shouted at the figure approaching in the night. The joy and happiness in her tone could be heard without the need to communicate with each other.

When Shino walked to the stable, she couldn't wait to poke her head out and rubbed the girl's neck affectionately. Her mane was like a lion's mane, thick, soft and slender. When she gently stroked her hands, she could still feel the coldness of snow falling and falling. Even if Sun Snow left the snow mountain and came to live on the ground, she still had the noble and arrogant temperament in her bones, and she would only be close to people whom she recognized.

"Good horse." Xino smiled and patted her neck: "Are you a few years old, and you still love acting so cute?"

Brandy sniffed when he heard this, saying that acting cute has nothing to do with age, but with feelings.

In fact, many things are like this, and they have nothing to do with other factors, but only with feelings.

Shino didn't know what he thought of, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared. She looked up at the sky, then fell back to Brandi, and asked softly: "Do you want to run with me for a lap, Brandi?"

"Yulu?" Brandy blinked his big bright and wet eyes, a little surprised.

She knew that in addition to daily training, her friend and owner had only one situation that would change the schedule and suddenly wanted to ride a horse on a lap, which was the moment when she felt bored and distressed. Since Sino was a serious, self-disciplined, and able to restrain emotions, this situation could be said to be a handful of times, so that Brandi could still find them out from her memory, one by one: when the couple with good feelings passed away, when the girl named Claire passed away, when she accepted the reality and dismissed the manor servants one by one, when the old man who always lay in a wheelchair passed away. And yesterday, when she returned from the depths of the city, she seemed to be confused, so she rode her around the streets, and when the young man came to find her, she had figured it out.

For the girl who is used to being restrained, this seems to have become the only way for her to express her emotions freely. Whenever she gallops freely against the wind that is coming, she always feels that she has thrown all the troubles behind her. She doesn't need to consider anything: the glory of the family, the ancient vows, the meaning of victory, the necessity of sacrifice... These are temporary and cannot bind a free soul. She just needs to charge forward and keep forward, just like when Joan of Arc and her knights charged towards the enemy's army, she can abandon all sorrow and sorrow in a very far place behind her, and she can't catch up.

She could have been the freest knight in the Grindelwald, but her bloodline and fate tied too much.

"Law?"

Brandi looked at his friend carefully and shouted tentatively, as if saying: Are you unhappy?

"Don't do this, Brandy." Shino, who came back from his sadness, smiled and stroked Aima's neck, and said softly: "Just run with me for a while. You haven't been able to run to the point where you can't run yet, right?"

"Law!"

Brandy immediately raised his head and neighed, indicating that the sun snow is not a mediocre horse that can only do nothing between the stables. Seeing this, Shino couldn't help but chuckled, patted her neck, praised a good horse, and then opened the door of the stable and led it out without even having to put on a saddle or wear a riding suit. He just supported the horse with one hand and put it on the back with a clean and neat movement. She gently tied the reins, turned the direction, and walked out of the stable. At first, she just walked slowly, just like walking leisurely in the courtyard, but after leaving the stable and coming to the street, Brandy's speed gradually accelerated and he carried his master to trot.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The cold night wind blew on Shino's face, blew Brandi's mane and fluttered, just like a silver snow line gradually extending out in the darkness. The sound of horse hooves sounded together with the rustling sound from the forest. Shino felt a long-lost comfort and freedom. She wanted Brandi to speed up and ride a horse. However, the only reason told the girl that this was not the endless country fields of Grindelwald, but on an island named whales. Her free and free personality might have nowhere to be placed if she did not restrain herself.

"It's a good run, Brandy. Actually, you want to be faster, right? But just keep this speed. Let's relax occasionally and run slowly, don't worry."

Shino saw familiar scenes passing by: the sign of the alchemy workshop flashing through the gloomy forest, the Tianxin Church, which lights alone on the hills, and the huge windmills that are lonely and long rotating in a beautiful field of primrose - the latter reminds her of the windmills on the field of Grindelwald, and a story about how the last knight of the new era charged at a windmill, died in defending her faith, and then lived in people's memories forever as a paranoid.

She couldn't help laughing, and then saw the scenes constantly changing in her eyes, forming another form: the ancient manor surrounded by mountains and forests, located in the peaceful and peaceful town of Regram at the foot of the mountain, the grape branches spread out along the green of the summer harvest season, the wind flower balls flying back in the bright sunlight, and the laughter of people, sometimes the old, sometimes the children, and sometimes the girl. She grew up carefreely in people's favor, and Shino witnessed her childhood in how she competed with her friends for climbing trees, exploring up the mountain, catching fish in the river, riding a pony that had not grown up yet, pretending to be a knight, and slept in the afternoon on a small wooden boat, and fell asleep. The boat drifted downstream with the river, and drifted to a very far and far place that she could no longer reach.

The girl simply let go of the reins and let Brandi play it freely. She opened her arms and her body slightly backwards, closed her eyes and enjoyed the feeling of the wind in her hometown blowing by her side. Although it was not only thousands of miles away from the Grindelwald, it was simply a distance from the universe, but she always felt that the wind in her hometown was always by her side. It did not go far away, nor did the knight of the White Thorn Flower go far away. She was still guarding her people on the land called Granginia.

She did not regret that she agreed to Linger's invitation and came to a place far away from her hometown to fight some enemies she had never seen before. Because the education she received from childhood to adulthood told the girl that the knight was just and that she had to fight for the axiom of the world. She asked this question in turn, with her parents, and her grandfather's tombstone, and received a positive answer, so she firmly believed that she had made the right choice.

Now she still thinks that it is right to embark on this journey, but it is not as firm as it was at the beginning. Sometimes she would worry about her companion’s innocence, but forgot that she was also a cowardly girl who feared death a long time ago; sometimes she was confused about her strange past life, but the girl with the same face in the picture made the same choices as her from beginning to end. But when Alice firmly refused to participate in this battle, she began to realize that some things were destined to be long ago...

"Brandy, would you blame me?"

I blame myself for not being as confident as before, but rather learning to make compromises because I have some unrealistic expectations in my heart.

An unconscious voice flashed in the wind. Her beloved horse did not hear this and continued to run forward on its own. Then the sound of horse hooves gradually slowed down and finally stopped in the shadow of a building. The dim lights fell through the painted glass windows, bringing a precious light to the front of the door. Xino raised his head and found that the Tianxin Church was in front of him.

"Is this your suggestion, Brandy?" Shino turned over and dismounted, patted Brand's neck, and joked: "Let me ask Goddess for help?"

"The goddess may not be able to hear your voice."

The church door creaked open, and a young man appeared at the door. The dim fire squeezed out tenaciously from the crack of the door, reflecting on his face, flashing lightly and darkly, with a mysterious feeling. He quietly stared at the girl holding the horse, his deep and peaceful eyes as if he had sent a silent invitation to her: But I may be able to listen to your heart, if you are willing to tell me.

Shino was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed after a while. Although it was just a very shallow curve, it was because of this that smile that came from the heart: "Do you want to confess for me, Mr. Linger? I heard that you no longer become a pastor. The current Tianxin Church is managed by Metien."

"Confession is not a priest's privilege, and I just want to talk to you about a few words."

Shino looked up at the church spire and raised his eyebrows: "So he chose this place specifically?"

"This is Brandi's choice." The young man replied as usual: "not me."

"Ye?" Brandy didn't expect the topic to touch her. He blinked his bright big eyes and acted innocently. But when she said that, she did have some of her own little thoughts. She knew that humans needed the same kind of comfort when they were sad, and that her master was no exception. She was not a kind of Sino, and she could not speak of it. She happened to smell the young man's breath from the soil in front of the church, and stopped unconsciously.

He should be very good at comforting people. Brandi thought so at that time. She had long discovered that everyone on Yunjingkong Island trusted this young man very much. Even if he was his master, wasn't he also decided to leave his hometown for one of his promises? Since that's the case, he should take responsibility for this now.

However, it’s good to know this kind of thing yourself, and there’s no need to let the two people in front of you know it. So, Brandy was still shaking her head there and trying to pretend to be innocent. Perhaps it was too deliberate, but it made Shino a little funny. She tried to hold the corner of her mouth, but failed. She could only chuckled and patted Brandy’s back, and said intimately: “I knew you had many ideas, and now I’m planning to do it now? Don’t bother with you, go play by yourself. I want to say a few words to Mr. Linger-If you are tired, you can go back to the hotel first.”

She was seen through, but the plan was successful. Brandi stopped when he saw it. She neighed at Linger, then turned around and ran away. The iron-wrapped horseshoe stepped across the hill covered with grass, like stepping on a thick pine needle, without making any sound.

"What did she say just now?" Linger looked at Shino and asked.

Shino looked like he tried hard to hold back his laughter but couldn't hold it in any way: "She said, please take care of me-"
