He walked away amidst a chorus of forced laughter.
Aoba stood still, listening to the pitiful murmurs of the surrounding vendors.
He didn't care.
He was still just staring at the fruit that had been trampled to pieces.
After a long time.
The morning light shines on the earth.
A sliver of light pierced through Qingye's profile and shone on a spot not far from the alley entrance.
In that place.
The pink-haired child was moving toward the crushed fruit.
She was only wearing a tattered piece of cloth that could barely be called a dress.
There was no emotion in those eyes.
The only thing I could see clearly...
It has a slightly bright reddish halo under the sunlight.
She continued to stretch out her arm, reaching towards the remaining fruit scraps at the alley entrance.
"roll!"
"This is mine!"
"I saw it first!!"
Several thin boys suddenly emerged from another alleyway.
They started fighting over the broken fruit scraps on the ground.
Pink hair... The girl seemed to have noticed the commotion over there, but even though she was very close, she still didn't dare to reach out.
Those eyes were observing the boys' movements.
"Get out of here!"
At this moment, the shop owner spoke up.
He held a broom and chased away the group of woodworms.
"Damn it, they're all scum!"
he spat.
They swept all the remaining fruit scraps into the dog bowl next to them.
The girl watched as the remaining scraps were swept away.
The light in her eyes suddenly disappeared, and she was about to move her body back to her dim corner when...
The blinding morning light illuminated her eyes.
A very beautiful face appeared in front of her.
"Would you like to come with me?"
"Meals and accommodation included!"
Chapter 121 Recognize me as your older brother, and I'll provide you with food and lodging!
"Mine! You can't eat those!"
"Be careful, don't run around."
"Mine...run!!!"
The pink-haired girl froze on the spot when she saw Aoba.
Many images flashed through my mind.
That face reminded her of many things.
But in the end, it all came to an abrupt end amidst a splash of blood.
Mine snapped out of her daze and shakily withdrew her arm.
He curled up his frail body and moved to a corner deep in the alley.
I didn't dare look at the person at the alley entrance.
very dangerous.
Surviving in a place like this is very dangerous.
She couldn't trust anyone.
"I am not a bad guy."
The person standing in the beam of light looked very beautiful.
But the more attractive a person is, the more dangerous they are.
These are the rules that the girl learned from surviving here.
She could only try to curl up her body to make herself less conspicuous.
That beautiful pink hair had long since dragged on the ground, turning grayish.
"Phew~ This is getting a bit tricky."
The person at the alley entrance was covering his head and talking to himself.
Then he rummaged through the bag on his back for a while and took out an oil paper package.
moment.
A wonderful aroma wafted into Mine's mind, stirring up memories of food she had long since abandoned.
What smells so good?
The girl's curled-up body opened slightly.
A pair of lifeless eyes looked toward the alley entrance.
The very handsome person carrying the oil paper package seemed to be preparing to come in.
Upon considering a certain possibility, Mine instantly tensed up again, curling her body up and even beginning to tremble slowly.
However, the footsteps stopped some distance away from her.
Then a long time passed...
Mine heard no more sounds.
But the fragrance lingered in the air.
It smells better and better!
Gumbling—
She swallowed hard, her throat burning with pain.
The hunger ignited by that aroma was completely irresistible.
That person should have left by now, right?
Mine's curled-up body opened up a crack again.
His eyes scanned everything in the narrow alleyway.
Apart from the oil paper package a few meters away from her, there was nothing else.
Should be gone.
A sudden pang of grievance welled up in the girl's heart.
Or is that very beautiful person actually a good person?
But she dared not gamble.
Never again?|*栮淋貳?(二)彡笼〢芭谂 Unable to resist, Mine lifted her body, slowly moved over, and picked up the oil paper package.
The oil paper was wrapped very neatly, with some oil stains seeping out on the outside.
The fragrance comes from the oil stains on the edges.
Gumbling—
She swallowed again.
He quickly put away the oil paper package, looked around at the empty alley entrance, and moved it back to a corner of the alley.
Then tear off the oily corner of the oil paper package and put it in your mouth to savor it deeply.
A strong aroma of meat instantly awakened her taste buds.
Even if it's just an oil stain...
They are all delicious!
Shouldn't you be happy to eat something delicious?
Mine!
Why are you crying?
The girl buried herself deeply in her thin arms, her silent sobs accompanied by tears rolling down her cheeks.
"This is it, the aroma is coming from here."
Suddenly.
Several sounds of varying volume came from outside the alley.
"Let's go in and take a look..."
One of the rough voices was familiar to Mine.
He was the king of the kids who had the most cards up his sleeve in this alley.
