The Dean Has Arrived Chapter 78: Alice 183; Bennings
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)
I don’t know if it is to increase the difficulty of the enemy attack or to promote commercial prosperity or other reasons. The mountain road in this city is not the kind of road leading to the college, but a big step with streets every time it climbs. , You have to walk up the street for a while to find the stairs leading to the next big step.
But this approach is only for those outsiders or people who are not familiar with the terrain.
In many small alleys, there are various emergency ladders or walkways that can quickly go up and down. In order to be able to get to the guests as soon as possible to complete the dean’s orders, Alice uses her advantage of being very familiar with the terrain because she often comes out to purchase. From these shortcuts, rushed down the mountain as quickly as possible.
When she finally arrived, she was told by the mage who stayed on the magic ship that Mrs. Sharon and her party had left.
"Why does little Alice feel so tired?" When the girl was walking down the street in frustration and thinking about what to do next, the lady in the small shop she frequented by the street greeted her. : "Here are freshly baked croquettes, take a few and eat them."
"Huh? But I didn't have any money..." Alice said embarrassedly.
"It's okay, just remember to continue patronizing our shop in the future." The aunt smiled gently: "And we don't want to see little Alice's face with a bitter face, hurry up and cheer up!"
"Well, thank you, auntie." Seeing the caring faces of people in the shops around, Alice felt warm and involuntarily smiled. She took the paper bag handed out by her aunt, and after bowing to them, she cheered up and ran to the upper step.
Since I missed the guests at the beginning, can I just go outside the college and wait for them to come?
Although it's a bit rude, it's better than keeping the guests waiting.
At least Alice thinks so.
But after running up a few large steps, she stopped.
On the street not far from her, a little girl with silver hair in a small mage robe was looking around in distress.
Although Alice is afraid to say that she recognizes all the students in the college, it is impossible for her to have no impression of such a conspicuous little guy. In other words, the other party is definitely not a student of the college.
Then, is it a little girl who got separated from your own adult, or accidentally got lost?
Obviously, I shouldn’t be nosy now. Before the guests rush to the outside of the academy, they must wait there earlier.
but...
Looking at the poor silver-haired girl who looked only eight or nine years old over there, Alice bit her lip, and then walked up quickly as if she had decided something.
"Little sister, are you lost?" She spoke to the little girl alone.
But the little silver-haired girl didn't answer, but took a step back like a cat fearful of birth, showing extremely alert eyes.
Alice scratched her cheek with a wry smile, and then suddenly remembered that she still had a paper bag in her hand.
"Don't be afraid, big sister, please eat croquette~" So she opened the paper bag and seduced the little girl with the smell of meat that permeated it.
"Sevi said...you can't eat strangers." The little girl stared at Alice blankly, but her secretly swallowing movements couldn't hide her from Alice's eyes.
huhuhu~ Aunt Miya’s croquettes are delicious at the delicacy level, hurry up and drop your vigilance!
Alice unconsciously used a trafficker-like tone to fill in her heart, while she continued to keep a kind smile and said: "Then my name is Alice, Alice Bennings, how about you? "
"Tio Scanji." The little girl seemed to relax her vigilance slightly because of the wonderful aroma of the croquette, and replied in a low voice.
"Well, then we wouldn't be considered strangers, right? Tio?" Alice looked at the cuteness of the little girl secretly swallowing, and smiled and handed the paper bag to Tio.
Tio hesitated, and finally took the paper bag.
But she did not rush to eat the croquette, but asked Alice strangely: "Why?"
Although Tio’s words sounded boring at first, Alice understood what she meant—why came over to talk to her.
While lamenting the increasing vigilance of children recently, Alice also said with some embarrassment: "Because I feel that you are very upset here by yourself... I don't think it is necessary to help other people. Reason?"
Teo stared at Alice's face for a while, and when the latter was uncomfortable, she lowered her head and took a bite of the croquette.
"It's delicious."
"Right, right~" Although Tio's voice was so slight that it would be ignored if he wasn't paying attention, Alice still caught it very carefully, and her smile became brighter and brighter: "Aunt Miya Your craftsmanship is absolutely trustworthy~"
Teo took another bite of the croquette, then looked up at Alice, and then whispered, "We are separated from Sevi."
西维? The child mentioned this name just now, so it should be her guardian... Well, it sounds like a male name, but the father wouldn’t use his name directly, so it’s the older brother? It’s not right, I always feel that Tio’s attitude is a little strange when I say it’s my brother...
Alice's mind seemed to be unable to organize too complicated information, and soon became a little dizzy.
So she decided to solve the problem in a more direct way.
"In short, let's find Sevi together." She touched Tio's head: "You must also want to see him, right?"
The little girl nodded, then thought for a moment, and continued: "Alisa."
there is a new name, it should be a girl's name.
In other words, are you looking for a man and a woman this time?
"Hmm, I see." Alice patted her bulging chest, and said confidently to Teo: "Relax, this is like my home. I can definitely find it for you. Sevi and Alisha’s."
"...Well." The little girl finally nodded and stretched out a greasy hand to Alice.
Then the two girls, one big and one small, walked around the street to find people.
☆
"Tio!" Xiwei hugged the little girl: "Where did you go? I'm worried about me!"
After all, he brought Tio out of Noegy~IndoMTL.com~ and made such a promise that if something happened to the little girl, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Alyssa looked at Tio with envious eyes, and kept saying, "Just come back."
"Sevi...I'm sorry." Tio apologized softly, and then she seemed to have thought of something, and she pulled out of Sevi's arms and pointed to Alice who was standing aside and looking at them with a smile: "Alice Help me find you guys."
Xiwei looked up at the girl in the maid costume. Although she didn't know the identity of the other party, from what Tio said, she might have done a lot.
So he also simply thanked him: "Thank you very much for your help." He also planned to give out a few gold coins as a reward.
But Alice hurriedly waved her hand: "No need, I just helped according to my own wishes."
After speaking, the girl's face suddenly became a little ugly. She now suddenly remembered that she still had nothing to do.
"What's wrong?" Xiwei asked strangely.
"Hug, sorry, I have something urgent, I have to go!" Before Sylvie could ask why, Alice ran away without a trace.
"The badge on that girl..." I didn't say anything from the beginning, but stood not far away watching Sevi and their Evangeline, looking in the direction where Alice ran away, and said thoughtfully: "The ornamentation above should be the emblem of Huolian National Academy of Magic, right?"
"That's right." Mrs. Sharon nodded: "It seems we will see that kind-hearted child again soon."
"Then I will thank you again when that time comes." Xiwei put the half-drawn wallet back into the bronze storage box.
and then continue to walk towards the academy with everyone...
