Chapter Two Hundred and Forty Second Quiet Afternoon

In the valley with sparse sunlight, several tall red pine trees are distributed near the foot of the mountain on both sides. Against the bright afternoon sun, these shades appear a little deep, making this little world in the valley a little blue.

A few cicadas hid in the depths of the pine needles and could not see their figures, but the cheerful chirping came one after another in the valleys and forests. Occasionally the wind blew through the treetops, and a few Dai Juying fell on the branches, chirped, looked at them curiously, and then flew away quickly.

In the shade of the empty valley, a large Chu-red casserole was propped on a stone, and a layer of charcoal was burning below.

Roland Hill stood on the big rock beside him, watching the hot steam coming out of the pot and the occasional bubbles, adding a little of the prepared powder accessories from time to time, and then picking up the long wooden pestle to stir, with a serious expression. Calm again.

In addition to her, there was a red-haired girl in the valley. She sat quietly on a tall branch beside her, her eyes widened curiously, and she watched Roland Hill refining the medicine.

Huh, it went well.

Looking at the slowly discolored medicinal liquid in the pot, Roland Hill breathed a sigh of relief, his expression slowly relaxed, and the next step was to control the heat and wait slowly. She turned her head to look at the girl in the tree beside her.

"Keti, how do you see it, have you learned it?"

"Well, probably."

Keti nodded and answered with a little pride. She is rarely wearing a light purple dress today, with white florals on the skirt and edges, white socks and light shoes wrapped around her ankles.

"So smart." Roland Hill praised a little, then turned back and sat on the big rock, slowly watching the liquid medicine in the pot take shape.

Since the end of the game, Osuna has been in a coma, the 'Black Veil' is leaderless, and the interior is gradually chaotic. Especially after Yan Liuyan woke up, he was freed from the state of being confused before, and he led the group of people under him to publicly announce that he was leaving the society, which caused this newly born small organization to fall apart. and its affiliated societies gradually took over, and the old order began to slowly recover.

However, I still don't know what happened to Si Ye and Chris. Although Roland Hill thought about it a lot, due to the lack of information, she didn't know what state these witches were in.

If it really doesn't work, after the abnormality of the students and teachers is resolved this time, let's go to Tides, she must know a lot, and there is a way to find out these people.

With this thought in her mind, the girl slowly extinguished the flame and started collecting potions.

-----------------

The stargazing room in the seal book.

The phantoms that appeared and disappeared from time to time wandered in the hall, flew over the high dome, drilled into the layers of bookshelves, and then continued to harass and attack the two witches in the center.

Chris looked at the empty space opposite and said.

"Agatha, why are you procrastinating like this?" she asked tentatively, trying to find the flaw.

But no one answered in the empty hall, only the twisted phantoms let out bursts of cries.

Chris knew that this witch must be in this hall, just because she used her special power to hide it.

The Mirror Witch who couldn't get a result was a little irritable, because this situation had been going on for nearly two weeks. Although it was nothing to the witch's lifespan, she was a little worried about the situation in the school.

"Don't worry, Chris." Si Ye said while holding Chris's hand.

"There will be a way." Her tone was calm and confident, but the phantoms in the hall were swimming more frequently.

-------------

A town on the west side of Temple College.

In May, the sun is shining. The residents of the town took advantage of the sunny weather to take out the damp clothes and quilts from their homes to dry. The white sheets were clamped on the ropes and slowly fluttered in the wind.

There were not many pedestrians on the streets in the afternoon, and occasionally I could hear the chatter of people along the street during lunch.

A young girl in a white shirt and a short plaid skirt was walking on the bluestone street. Her brown round-toed shoes stepped on the green leaves growing out of the gaps in the slate. She pushed open the brown light wooden door and walked into one of the small courtyards.

The white cloth fluttered in the breeze, and the girl stretched out her hand to block the slightly dazzling sunlight, letting the cloth slip through her long light red hair. After passing through the 'screens' of various patterns and fabrics, a small clearing appeared in front of her.

In the center of the open space, a lady closed her eyes and rested on the reclining chair, seemingly taking a nap and a nap.

The girl did not rush to wake the woman, but found a small bench to sit down, then opened the bag, took out a book, and waited quietly.

After a long time, the woman opened her eyes.

"How's school life, Kaze?"

"Very good, Lord Servius." The girl put away the book and replied respectfully.

"Don't be so restrained, it would be better to be a little more lively. I heard that you were not very lively before?" The woman sat up slowly and looked at the exquisite pocket watch by her hand. The time displayed on it was just after 2 pm .

"In the past...that's the case, but now I'm a little more sensible." Feng Nai replied softly.

"It's not bad to be sensible, but occasionally, you will be happier and more at ease." The woman said, the long hair behind her head has a fine stone hairnet, which reflects bursts of colorful light in the sun.

"What's going on at school lately? I see

There was a lot of noise the other day. "

"The school holds a biennial college competition, but this time is very unusual..." Feng Nai slowly described what he had heard.

"It's really rare. Could it be that those old men suddenly got enlightened and thought the previous games were too simple?" The woman commented casually.

"It doesn't seem to be. It is said that the sages and teachers in the school have become strange now. They basically don't care about anything, but they just rigidly follow the rules." Feng Nai continued.

"Strange?" The woman felt curious for a while, then stood up and looked at Emenas in the distance, the academy in the sun, with bursts of birds passing through the sky, and the blue and purple glazed tiles reflecting a little light in the sun.

After a long time, she spoke.

"You have been staying here recently, don't go back to school for now, wait until I go to Emenas to have a look and come back to make a decision."

"Hey?" Feng Nai covered her mouth in surprise and looked at the woman with wide eyes.

"Lord Servis, is this?"

"It's not clear for now. I'll talk about it later. I forgot to tell you something else. Your little maid has already come over and is now helping in the store. I'll see her later."

"Ah, is it Penny? How did she find it? Didn't I give her a sum of money to let her live freely?"

Feng Nai recalled the separation that day, and felt that her future was uncertain, and her family was at a loss, so she gave Penny a lot of money to let her live freely and no longer need to follow her poor master. come over.

"That child is not easy. In order to find you, she has suffered a lot. Don't abandon her family. Maybe you think freedom is good, but she misses and worries about you more."

"In the future, you don't have to stick to the status of master and servant in the past. You can be friends, and it's good to support and rely on each other. It's a rare blessing to have such a companion."

"Then see you in a few days."

After Servis finished speaking, his figure turned into colored particles and dissipated in the wind.
