Chapter 2245 Great Friendship

Looking at Kailan's enigmatic look, I really don't want to dampen her enthusiasm, but is it really necessary to guess this question?

The only businessmen she had ever crossed paths with were Daphne's family.

The answer was already obvious, but I had to pretend to be ignorant, pretending to be curious, and asked: "Who was so kind as to buy that broken robot?"

Kailan's lips curved up, and she smiled slyly, like a little fox: "It's Daphne from the Mavro family!"

Next, Kailan talked about the process of getting to know Daphne that she would never forget.

She spoke very emotionally, and I listened attentively. Unknowingly, a vivid picture emerged.

Little Kailan, wearing a blue robe that had been washed until it turned slightly white, held tightly in her arms a shabby little robot whose internal components had been completely burned, and stood in front of Mavro's shop in a panic. , From time to time, I poked my head and peeked into the door.

That day, Mr. Mavro happened to be out on business, and the shop was looked after by Mr. Mavro's daughter, Daphne, the shopkeeper of the Mavro's Materials Shop with an indifferent expression.

Kailan, who poked her head around and glanced at Daphne's indifferent expression and eyes, felt uneasy and panicked. For some reason, she was a little afraid of this loli who was the same age as herself.

Especially afraid of her cold eyes.

Because of fear, he flinched. Kailan hugged the small robot and squatted at the door timidly. His little face, which was thin and sallow due to long-term malnutrition, was full of hesitation and pain.

Yes, at this moment, she was not only hesitant, but also in great pain.

She had not eaten for several days, and now her stomach ached like a knot.

At the time, she didn't know that it was stomach cramps caused by not being able to eat well for a long time. She just thought that she might die.

Death is not terrible. After all, her father and mother are dead. They died in the underground city and died under the sharp claws of monsters.

If she dies too, will she be able to live happily in heaven with her doting parents?

However, who will fulfill the parents' last wishes?

Will that half-installed equipment enhancement machine, that machine that condensed my father's lifelong efforts, be turned into a pile of worthless scrap metal in the end?

In order to fulfill her parents' last wish, she must live strong, at least until the day the equipment enhancement machine is completely produced.

So, little Kailan, despite the pressure of being driven away, insulted, or even beaten, cautiously stepped into the threshold of the store.

She only stepped forward to the threshold, then stopped, timidly looking at Daphne standing at the counter, observing her expression with trepidation.

Seeing that Daphne was not displeased, he cautiously approached the counter, put the small robot on the counter with difficulty, and asked timidly: "How much can this cost?"

Daphne picked up the robot, looked at it carefully up and down, left and right, and then asked: "Can it move?"

Kellan shook his head.

Daphne's brows furrowed deeply. She thought for a long time, then put the robot back on the counter, sighed, and said: "It can't move, and it doesn't look good. If you pay according to the metal price, it will cost up to five copper coins."

Five copper coins are enough to feed a little lolita like Kailan for two days, but what about two days later? Are we going to continue to be hungry again? What to do with the equipment enhancement machine?

A series of thoughts occupied Kailan's little head, and her deep worries about the future completely shattered the hope that had just emerged in her heart.

"Can, can there be more?" Kailan summoned up the courage and asked tentatively.

Daphne shook her head and Kellan despaired.

Carrying five copper coins, Kailan walked out blankly.

The inheritance left by his parents had already been spent on the equipment enhancement machine. The current home was already bare. The last valuable thing left, the small robot left by his father, was sold for only five copper coins.

Five copper coins are only enough to support two days of food. After that, I may starve to death, or be killed by monsters in the dungeon, just like my father and mother.

Kailan became more and more frightened as he thought about it, and finally shed tears of despair.

The moment she stepped out of the store, a calm and emotionless voice sounded from the back of the store: "Stand there, don't move."

Kailan stopped subconsciously, turned around, and saw Daphne with an indifferent expression, holding a bulging bag, walked up to her slowly, and stuffed the bag into her arms: "Take it."

Kailan lowered her head subconsciously. Through the slightly opened mouth of the bag, Kailan saw coins reflecting a dark yellow shimmer. She was surprised. This was actually a bag full of copper coins!

How much does this cost?

At that time, Kailan was not as greedy for money as she is now. At the moment of the copper coin, her first reaction was - at a loss.

She looked at Daphne blankly, wanting to say something, but her trembling lips could not make any sound.

"Take it," Daphne said indifferently: "This is the pocket money I saved and it is my personal property."

Kailan choked up because she was so excited. After a while, she stopped crying and asked, "Why?"

"There's no reason." Daphne turned around and said lightly as she walked away: "If I have to find a reason, I like that little robot very much."

It wasn't until this moment that Kailan suddenly realized that Daphne, who had always had a straight face, was actually not an indifferent person. She had a heart brighter and kinder than gold.

Kailan heard what happened next from the neighbors. It is said that Mr. Mavro returned home and found five copper coins missing from the cash box, so he asked Daphne where the money went.

Daphne remained silent, so Mr. Mavro concluded that his daughter had used the five copper coins without permission to buy snacks.

In order to punish Daphne for her bad habit of spending money without saying a word, he severely punished Daphne and slapped the palm of her left hand until it became swollen.

However, although Daphne endured physical pain, she met Kailan, a close friend and loss friend by chance, and a long period of her life afterwards was both painful and happy.

At this point, Kailan looked solemn and said: "So, Xiaoyi, if one day you and my Daphne have a conflict, I will definitely help her, not you."

"Well done!" I patted her shoulder cheerfully: "This is friendship, a great friendship!"

The sound of fighting gradually subsided. Although the mechanical creatures were brave and fearless, they were still not enough when facing the powerful Destroyer.

Maybe they realized that the mechanical creatures couldn't cause damage to the expellers, or maybe they were tired of sending people away, so they actually left in unison, like the ebbing tide.
