Chapter 130: Thousand Miles to Find Relatives (2 in 1)
Chapter 130: Searching for Relatives A Thousand Miles Away (2-in-1)
That's a woman.
A blond woman with a familiar face.
The morning sun shines on her golden and dazzling hair, which makes people think of precious and soft satin. The ends of the hair are slightly curled, which is somewhat similar to Nishimaru Miria's hair color, and is as slender as a swan.
The white neck exudes an elegant and noble atmosphere.
At this moment, even if the woman in front of me is curled up in the corner of the corridor like a common drunkard or tramp, sitting on the ground with her arms folded and sleeping against the wall, I am afraid no one will look down upon her as a tramp.
, Princess in Distress is pretty much the same.
In the corridor of the apartment, Higashinohara paused and frowned and recognized the woman in front of him - that is, the woman from the defunct Sayashi who he met in the sleeper compartment when he and Miria Nishimaru returned to New Tokyo from Hokkaido after the Spring Festival.
Women of the Grand Duchy.
At that time, it seemed that the other party was being hunted by the revolutionary forces in Grand Duke Shayash. Higashinohara happened to be in the car, and it was considered that he saved her by some mistake.
Later, the train pulled into the station and the police arrived. Higashinohara and Nishimaru Miria briefly recorded their confessions and then parted ways. They were so busy on their way that they didn't even have time to say hello.
But why did the other party appear here?
Did you come here in a hurry to express your gratitude?
Maybe it's possible.
But the question is how did the other party find this?
He didn't leave his address at that time, and in the end it was impossible for the police to help him.
Higashinohara was thinking about this.
The soft facial lines of the blond woman leaning against the wall were a little loose. She opened her hazy sleepy eyes slightly and vaguely saw a figure standing not far in front of her.
Clodia Osere subconsciously raised her hand to block the dazzling sunlight outside the eaves of the corridor, and then she saw Higashinohara's face clearly in a daze.
Eh? Is it him?
Clodia Osele glanced at Higashinohara blankly, and suddenly realized where she was. She quickly climbed up from the stairs of the corridor, and quickly arranged her appearance and clothes with her hands.
So concerned about image?
Higashinohara saw that the other party's behavior was purely subconscious, and he couldn't help but be a little curious about this woman's identity.
But the Grand Duchy of Shayash has been disintegrated, and even though the other party's once prominent status is no longer what it was before, he doesn't have any restraint or pressure.
"Hello! I didn't expect to see you here!"
This is still the case, Clodia Oselet said a little at a loss, as if she really didn't expect that this young man who had saved her once on the train would actually appear in front of her so unexpectedly.
After he finished speaking, he remembered something and hurriedly bowed again, "My name is Clodia Oselet, thank you! Thank you very much for your help on the train."
On the train from Hokkaido to Neo-Tokyo, Coladia Oseire went to the train restroom. When she opened the door and saw the people being chased by the Storm Revolutionary Army and her subordinates lying in a pool of blood, she was stunned.
When the Stormtroopers failed to find her in the sleeper compartment and began to search compartment by compartment along the carriage, the footsteps on the train corridor were simply a signal that could kill her.
At that time, she, who had lived in the royal family since she was a child, was really frightened. Her heart was in a mess, and she did not dare to think about what would happen to her after being caught by those members of the Storm Revolutionary Army.
Later, the train bathroom was violently opened, and she was captured by the brutal Storm Revolutionary Army soldier, who seemed to take her as a hostage and wanted to exchange her.
Unexpectedly, the young man in front of me refused.
everything that happens next,
But it still makes her feel like she is in a dream when she thinks about it.
As the train approached, the young man in front of me transformed into a shadow filled with the aura of death. The sword flashed in front of me. In the blink of an eye, I was standing in a pool of blood and howling miserably.
To be honest, even though Clodia Osere comes from an extraordinary family and has a vision far beyond that of ordinary people, she has never seen such a cold, calm and powerful young man. The hurried scene on the train can be said to have left a deep impression on her mind.
It left a very deep impression.
Didn't expect to meet me here?
At this time, after hearing this, Higashinohara looked at the grateful look on the other person's face, and suddenly thought in his heart - it seemed that he was not here specifically to thank him but to find someone else.
With this thought in his mind, Higashinohara bowed slightly and said in return, "You're welcome, are you here to find someone?"
"Yeah, yeah."
Clodia Oselet nodded, turned her head to look at the room next to her with some restraint, then raised her slender white right wrist, and looked down at the room number written on the carbon pen.
505.
Living in the room is Xia Li, a girl from the Tianhu tribe.
Could it be that it was Charlie she was looking for?
Have you never heard of Charlie, a country girl from Okinawa, and her foreign friends from the Grand Duchy of Sayash?
What's happening here?
Higashinohara was a little confused and asked subconsciously, "Is there no one at home?"
Clodia Oselay immediately waved her hand awkwardly and said nervously, "No, I only found this place late last night. I think she may have rested. So."
"So you just sat here all night?"
Higashinohara asked blurtly.
Clodia Osere's pretty cheeks suddenly became flushed, and she lowered her head indifferently. Higashinohara was speechless when he saw this.
Ever since Charlie joined the Aragaki Detective Agency, his schedule has completely followed that of his boss, Aragaki Satoru.
And Aragaki Satoru is an out-and-out tenant. Except for rare circumstances, most of the time he sleeps until the afternoon before getting up and calling Charlie to have dinner - Higashinohara once suspected that this guy wanted to save a work meal.
.
The woman in front of her, named Clodia Oselet, was sitting stupidly at the door waiting, so it probably took half a day before Charlie woke up.
It would be okay if I didn’t meet Higashinohara.
I will definitely help you if you encounter someone.
Although he and Charlie had some disagreements at first, their relationship is pretty good now - mainly because this guy always comes to Higashinohara to watch TV when he has nothing to do.
Therefore, Higashinohara was not polite and turned around to help knock on the door. After a while, he heard a clang and a rush of footsteps.
Someone fell out of bed?
The corners of Higashinohara's eyes twitched slightly.
The next second, the room door opened from the inside.
The weather in early spring was suddenly warm but still cold. Xia Li, a mixed-race girl from the Tianhu tribe who opened the door, was wearing a cool vest and sky blue shorts, giving people a feeling of vitality.
But she probably wore it like this because she felt comfortable sleeping. At this moment, she opened the door and saw her neighbor Higashinohara and waved her hands happily:
"Good morning, Toyo!
Are you here to treat me to breakfast?"
Invite you to breakfast?
Higashino turned around and left.
But considering that there was a blond foreign friend standing in the corridor next to him, he could only cough and said, "The landlord said he will treat you to breakfast. You can go down and find him later. By the way, I think someone is looking for you outside.
Come out for a moment."
With that said, Higashinohara gave way.
The next moment, Clodia Ocelet, who looked uneasy, and Charlie, who looked confused, looked at each other, and the air suddenly fell into a strange silence.
Seeing this, Higashinohara couldn't help but make assumptions in his mind.
Do they really know each other?
Judging by the age gap between the sisters, maybe they are.
But their last names seem to be different,
Could it be a distant cousin?
He guessed without saying a word for a long time, but unexpectedly, Charlie and Clodia Oseley were still staring at each other, and the scene gradually became a little anxious.
Higashinohara couldn't help but glance at the confused Clodia Oselet, and asked, "Is this the person you are looking for?"
Clodia Oselet looked down at the mark on her wrist in confusion, then looked up at the 505 house number on the door of the apartment room, nodded first and then shook her head.
what's the situation?
Higashinohara frowned a little.
Charlie also turned to look at Higashinohara, leaned towards him and lowered her voice and said, "I don't know her, but this woman is so beautiful. Isn't it Higashino you want to date someone else?"
Higashinohara was speechless when he heard this.
This Erha is so capable of making nonsense with just one mouth.
At this time, there was only a "squeak" sound, and the door of the room next to 505 was pushed open from inside.
A young lolita with light blond hair, Nishimaru Miria, walked out of the room with a small schoolbag on her back and sorted garbage in her hands.
She turned around and locked the door carefully. When she turned around and saw Higashinohara, a happy smile suddenly appeared on her little face. She ran over quickly with her short legs open. The ends of her light blond slightly curly hair gleamed under the morning sun.
The swing is very dazzling.
Higashinohara's heart moved slightly when he saw this.
He turned his eyes, and sure enough he found that Clodia Oselet's eyes also fell on Nishimaru Miria without blinking.
Only then did Higashinohara suddenly remember that 505, where Charlie now lives, was formerly occupied by Miria Nishimaru and his father. Later, Miria Nishimaru was adopted by Tokugawa Ritora and moved out.
After Tokugawa Ritora's accident in Hokkai, Nishimaru Miria moved out of the original mansion, and now she has moved to the room next to Higashinohara after she returned.
Could it be that this woman is here to see Nishimaru Miria?
etc!
Judging from her appearance and temperament, she seems to have some resemblance to Miria Nishimaru, which reminds her of the rumored mother of Miria Nishimaru who smuggled over from the Grand Duchy of Sayash in this building.
Could it be that.
But isn't he too young?
And why did the other party want to sneak over at that time? Was there any compelling reason?
Higashinohara was guessing in his mind
At this time, Clodia Oselei had already walked quickly to Nishimaru Miria and squatted down.
She trembled and stretched out her hand towards Nishimaru Miri's delicate, palm-sized face, then quickly retracted it, then raised her hand to wipe the moist corners of her eyes, staring at Nishimaru in front of her without blinking.
Wei Li, her eyelashes trembling slightly, murmured:
"It's so similar."
Nishimaru Miria is shy and rarely talks to strangers when she meets her, but maybe it's because they have the same hair color, but she feels an inexplicable closeness to the woman in front of her.
She raised her head and glanced at Higashinohara who was standing next to her. Her little heart felt slightly settled, and then she mustered up the courage to raise her head and bow politely to Clodia Osere, who was staring at her, and asked:
"Hello,
Are you here to see me?"
Clodia Osele quickly raised her hand to wipe away her tears, with a smile on her face, and carefully confirmed, "Yes, is your name Nishimaru Miria?"
"Um."
Nishimaru Miria nodded her head.
Clodia Osele suddenly couldn't control herself any more. She was half-crouching and suddenly opened her arms and hugged Miria Nishimaru. She said in a choked tone, "Miriya-chan, I finally found you."
Nishimaru Miria was suddenly at a loss.
But sensing the other person's sincere joy and excitement, she didn't break away. She just raised her little hand and gently touched the other person's hair, which was as smooth as hers.
After a while, Clodia Oselay also recovered from her gaffe.
She noticed the close relationship between Higashinohara and Nishimaru Miria, and couldn't help but stood up and bowed slightly to Higashinohara again seriously, "You saved me on the train. I didn't expect that Xiaomiri was also taken care of by you. It's really disappointing.
I don’t know how to thank you."
At this point, she seemed to notice the confusion on Higashinohara's face, and quickly added, "I am Xiaomi-ri's aunt, and she is my sister's daughter."
aunt?
Higashinohara somewhat reacted.
No wonder the other person looks so young and doesn't look like he has given birth to a child.
So she is Nishimaru Miria's aunt?
Nishimaru Miria's little face was a little confused.
Although her biological father was a bit of a scumbag, she had almost no memory of her mother in the few years after she came to this world, and she had no idea about her mother's sister.
So she stood there dumbly, took two steps back in fear, and turned to look at Higashinohara.
Higashinohara knew it very well.
The bond between relatives, even if it cannot be called dependence, is often a kind of psychological sustenance.
Higashinohara knew that Tokugawa Ritora's accident had affected Nishimaru Miri far more than her usual smiling face could hide. Occasionally staring at the air in a daze could still reveal her inner loneliness.
Especially when she went to Higashinohara's hometown in Hokkaido and saw relatives such as Higashinohara's parents and younger sister, she may have longed for family affection in her little heart.
So when he saw Nishimaru Miria's subconscious retreat, Higashinohara couldn't help but smile and interrupted, "Let's not stand here anymore. If you don't mind, come to my room and sit down and chat slowly.
Xiao Weili also wants to know about her mother."
Clodia Osele noticed Nishimaru Miria's flinching, and she felt a little sad for the daughter her sister had entrusted to her before she died.
When I heard Higashinohara's words, I immediately cast a grateful look at him.
So Higashino returned the same way, took out the key, opened the door, and led Coladia Osele and Nishimaru Miria into his room.
Charlie, who was called out for no reason, was also full of curiosity and wanted to follow in to see the excitement. She had never encountered a "family recognition scene" before.
But as soon as she stepped in, Higashinohara stopped her at the door with his hand.
"What's wrong Touya?"
Charlie also poked her head in.
An apologetic smile appeared on Higashinohara's face, "I'm really sorry for disturbing your sleep just now. Don't you need to go back and sleep a little longer?"
Charlie's curiosity was rising. How could she possibly sleep? The two furry ears on her head moved and she shook her head and said broadly:
"I'm not sleepy at all now!"
"You can be sleepy."
Higashinohara had a gentle smile on his face.
"Ah?! But I'm really not sleepy."
Charlie hasn't reacted yet.
"You can sleep a little longer if you're not sleepy," Higashinohara continued.
Only then did Charlie react belatedly. She squinted her big eyes and looked at Higashinohara. She suddenly leaned over and lowered her voice, "Higashiye, have you forgotten your friends after seeing sex?"
Even if she lowered her voice, she could still hear what was going on. Higashinohara immediately slapped her forehead angrily.
"You are a big-headed ghost!"
After he finished, he didn't care about her protest and closed the door directly with his backhand.
It's not that Higashino doesn't want to see Charlie, it's just that this guy's personality is a bit awkward.
As for Nishimaru Miria's aunt from the Grand Duchy of Sayash, her identity seems a bit sensitive, otherwise the revolutionary troops of the disintegrated Grand Principality of Sayash would not have been able to chase her all the way to the train in Hokkaido.
If Charlie hears something and accidentally spreads it out, causing unnecessary trouble, it would be better for the villain to lock her out and pull her down.
