After the registration was completed, according to the previous agreement, Xino took everyone to the Azure Arc Restaurant to have a meal and chat with long-lost old friends. Perhaps it was also to recall his long-gone college years, because that restaurant was in Sumi
It is near Ya University. When Sino was still in school, she often visited it with her friends. For her, it was a place full of memories.
Walking on the lively street, Xino and Layla were talking and laughing, teasing each other about the embarrassing things they did in college, while Alice and Gloria were listening, adding a word or two from time to time, and the atmosphere was interesting.
Get up and feel happy.
Linge and Saint Xalia deliberately stayed at the back, talking in voices so soft that only each other could hear them.
"It seems that Xino's situation is more complicated than we imagined." Saint Xia Liya said softly: "Just curing her grandfather's injury does not seem to be enough to make her change her mind."
Lin Ge nodded slightly: "Yes."
Although this simple reply was in line with the young man's character, Saint Xalia couldn't help but take another look at him: "You don't look surprised at all, Ringer."
"I had this expectation on the carriage." Linge explained: "Didn't you notice that when Xino accepted the bottle of potion, although there was a smile on his face, he was not actually happy.
"
Saint Xia Liya was startled for a moment. She really didn't observe Xino's expression very much at that time, so she didn't notice this subtle difference: "Do you mean, she still doubts us?"
"No, I don't think she doubted us. She also believed in her heart that the bottle of potion could really cure Mr. Van Yandru's old injuries. But to her, it was meaningless, so she just thanked her politely.
, but I’m not happy in my heart.”
Ringer's explanation made Saint Xia Liya a little unbelievable: Curing her grandfather's injury is meaningless to Xino?
Why? Does Xino not care about her grandfather's injury at all? She doesn't look like someone who is indifferent to family affection.
Faced with Saint Xalia's surprise, Ringer did not continue to explain. He lowered his eyelids, with a deep thought hidden in his eyes: If the process is correct but the result remains unchanged, it is naturally meaningless.
He didn't speak, and Saint Xalia didn't ask any more questions. She looked up at Xino who was walking in the front, watching her and Leila walking and laughing. Her sunny and cheerful appearance didn't look like she was carrying a heavy past at all.
, I couldn’t help but sigh with emotion: "Xino is a very strong person, but maybe he still hasn’t completely gotten over the shadow of the past. I should remind Gloria and Alice not to force Xino to play a training match next time.
That kind of victory and defeat is definitely not a good experience for her."
On the contrary, it will only bring her into contact with the memory of winning the championship, and then extend to the death of her partner.
Perhaps the girl's desire to win began to dissipate from that moment.
Her emotion brought Ringer back to his senses. After looking at Xino, the young man lowered his voice and said, "It's still wrong, Saint Xia Liya."
"Eh?" Saint Xalia blinked in surprise, not realizing why she was wrong again.
"Xino didn't lose his will to win because of Claire's death." Linge said in a calm tone: "According to Miss Leila, she has always had such a humble and low-key attitude since she entered school, which caused a lot of confusion.
There have been many misunderstandings; but do you still remember what Xino once said to us, that she was a competitive child when she was a child, and she accidentally fell from a tree in order to be better than her peers?"
Saint Xia Liya said "Ah", and some impressions emerged in her mind. It was a small thing that Xino said casually when they first entered Chatoli Manor and showed them around. Because she just said it casually, no one said anything.
Why do you care? I just thought she was recalling her childhood because of the scene. Unexpectedly...
"I didn't expect you to remember it so clearly." Saint Xalia looked at Linge with a strange look.
The young man seemed not to notice the profound meaning in his eyes and continued: "From being competitive as a child to being humble and low-key after entering college, it is impossible for a person's character to undergo such a drastic change unless...
She experienced something during this period, which changed her personality. I estimate that that incident is probably related to her mother..."
A legendary player in the history of Feng Hua Qiu, the creator of a miracle, but there is a name that rarely appears in her daughter's mouth: Ms. Mistian.
Saint Xalia also reacted.
Xino said that she was afraid of seeing other people die, but so far in her life, she has witnessed the death of her closest relatives at least three times, namely her father Leonard, her mother Mistian,
And her best friend Claire. Among them, Leonard died of a starless and moonless night when the knight charged at the windmill. Claire died of lung disease in the aftermath of winning the college championship.
Sentenced to the double death of life and dreams.
But there is no way to know how her mother died, and it is impossible to ask. After all, this is a very rude thing.
"So," Saint Shalia asked, "what are you going to do?"
Ringer replied calmly: "I plan to do nothing."
"ah?"
"Because if you think about it carefully, you will find that there is nothing we can do at the moment." Ringer said: "Finding a way to cure Mr. Van Yundru's injury is the limit of what we can do. As for the future,
, all we can do is wait.”
Saint Xalia found it a little incredible at first, because in her mind, there was almost nothing that Linger could not do, even if he was autistic like Ieta and rebellious like Leticia, in the end, he would obediently join in under his words.
...Bah, did you successfully land on the island? In the end, she encountered a setback in Xino, which made her feel ridiculous: Is it surprising that the sun rises from the west today?
But according to Ringer's statement, she thought about it carefully and found that it was really the case. At least they had done what they had to do. The success or failure of the matter no longer depended on their efforts, but on whether the parties involved could figure it out.
It can only be said that she is worthy of being the last girl in the game. According to the Alice Raiders game, the last one is always the most difficult, so it is not surprising that Ringo was stumped.
Despite this, Saint Xalia couldn't help but ask one more question: "But what are we waiting for?"
Could it be that Xino is waiting for the day when he suddenly changes his mind and decides to join their just cause and jointly defeat the Witch Association? It sounds like he is following the old story between the White Knight Hibberton and the Holy Lady.
Ringer didn't seem to hear the implication of Saint Shalia's words. His eyes kept falling on the white-haired girl. He was subtle and restrained, and was not noticed by the other party. The Goldstaff family, the White Knight Hibberton, and Saint Priest
Germany, the oath with the aliens, "The Bigot" Leonard, the Windmill Cross Society, the ruins of the ancient battlefield, Ms. Mistian, the college championship, Claire, and Miss Leila in front of him... one by one, the names are on his mind
His mind flashed, gradually piecing together a vague outline.
He spoke in a low voice, as if answering Saint Xalia's question, or saying to himself: "Wait for an opportunity."
