Release that Witch

The fire in the house burned and the half of the floor was red.

Listening to the snoring of firewood, and looking at the north wind and the snow drifting outside the window, Ajima felt full of warmth. Perhaps it is the sequelae of rummaging through the garbage in the garbage pile during childhood. When it is winter, her hands will produce frostbite and cracked mink. After moving to the sleeping island, it will not improve, but because of long-term exposure to salty The sea water has become more serious.

Now, she has only a few shallow mouths on her fingers, no bloodshots, and no pain. Although it is not unbearable compared to the bitterness of beatings when she is begging, she will not be afraid of suffering less. some. This kind of whole-body experience is almost forgotten.

The living environment of No Winter City does have inexplicable magic, and even the most common residences are very different from other towns.

For example, in this brick house, there are thick mortars on both sides of the wall. Each corner of the window is closely connected with the masonry. Even if the outside snow is large, the interior will not be affected much. Otherwise, a fireplace alone is very It is difficult to maintain enough temperature. In exchange for the ordinary residence of Jin Suicheng, I am afraid that there are four leaks at the moment, and the doors and windows whistle.

In addition, there are holes in the fireplace, which can introduce a part of the heat into the bedroom bed next door. When the night is turned off, the bed is basically warm.

And this is only a small part of what she found. For example, similar details, no winter city is everywhere, the longer you live, the deeper your feelings. Sometimes Ajima can't help but wonder if the city is built because people need to settle down here.

It is a paradise born for enjoyment.

As for why it is built in the worst of the West, it is because of the strong contrast: the warmth felt in the spring season is obviously not as impressive as the warmth of the ice and snow. The more impossible it is, the more commendable it is when it is reached.

For a moment, she almost believed this idea.

"The soup is stewed, and dinner can be eaten." Doris took a pot of soup out of the kitchen and placed it on the low table in the living room.

"... trouble you," Ajima handed a cushion to the other party and sat down at the table.

Two dishes and one soup, all of which are mushroom-based products, which are called West Mushroom specialties, have excellent fat taste and rich juice. No need for extra seasoning, just sprinkle some salt, no matter what. The practice is delicious. But she also knows that this is actually the cheapest food in the winter city, and its price is comparable to that of wheat.

"Hey, I took the market and sold it, bought a lot of mushrooms and squatted in the room," Doris said happily. "If you break the grain this winter, these mushrooms should be enough for us to start the spring. Although it has been a long time. The taste will not be so delicious, but at least you can fill your stomach."

Achima picked up a spoonful of soup. Under the illumination of the fire, the little oil on the soup surface reflected the golden luster, which was quite attractive. Into the mouth, full of fresh fragrance suddenly filled her mouth, and along the hot soup all the way into the stomach, so that the entire abdomen warmed up.

Still an impeccable taste, but she did not have the appetite of the past.

After only drinking two spoons, Ajima put down the small bowl in her hand.

"What's wrong?" Doris quickly noticed her strangeness.

"I was thinking... Is the decision made that day wrong?" After a long silence, Akima whispered. "It should have been my intention to leave here. Now I have lost everyone and my long-lost relatives." The chance of a better day. If the white pears did not leave the sleeping spell, they may have lived in a large heated house at this moment, instead of several people huddled in a small house, there is no room for turning over."

"Why did you suddenly say this..." Doris snorted and then comforted. "No matter how small the house is, it is always a shelter from the rain, not to mention the fact that their relatives will continue to pay after the down payment. Continued to move out, although not as good as the shelter of the sleeping charm, but I think the two people lived very well. Compared to the previous wandering time"

"But now it is not the same!" She interrupted the other party's words, and the tone was even a bit violent.

Ajima predicted that she was wrong. She also predicted that she could take someone in the garbage dump for a long time or grab a meal with a group of wild dogs. Now how can she pull her face down and do it? Such a thing? Even if other sisters don't care, she never wants to let Tilly's guys see their jokes.

She submitted several job applications to the City Hall in the same way as ordinary residents, but failed to pass. The Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Industry recruited all of the sturdy adult males, which meant that she could not ask for the lowest construction sites and kiln areas. In addition, most of the positions have literacy requirements, and the treatment is slightly better, and a diploma for primary education is required. Even the clerk of the City Hall suggested that she should go to the college to complete her studies, so as not to delay the good future.

Of the six people, only Doris and White have an unstable job: the former is employed by the Witch Alliance, the second demonization of the enchanted copper rod created by Miss Mystery, the salary and the witches who live in the castle. Close, you can earn thirty or forty silver wolves in almost one day. It is a pity that this life is not every day. When it is less, it is not necessarily once a week.

The latter is in a tailor shop, because it has nothing to do with ability, the salary is basically the same as ordinary people, ranging from fifteen to twenty silver wolves a month, depending on the specific working day.

Other sisters also encountered the same dilemma as themselves.

In other words, the living expenses of the six of them fell on Doris and White Pear.

Because of this, the warmer and more comfortable life, the more Ajima feels guilty. When she refused Wendy's kindness, she wanted to prove herself to the guy who called the nightingale. She is not a weak person, even if she is Without relying on the sleeping spell, she can go on her own wishes. But this situation has undoubtedly made her feel embarrassed.

Therefore, in her voice, there is also a trace of intolerance.

But as soon as the words were taken off, Ajima regretted it. "Sorry, I didn't want to..."

"It doesn't matter," Doris took her hand. "I know your mood, and what I want to say is that everyone agrees with your thoughts before deciding to leave the sleeping spell together. This is not who. Wrong. As for the small things of living expenses, you don’t have to worry about it. You used to pay so much for us. Can we not let us pay back now?"

"I don't want to pay for it, I don't do it for your reward."

"Then we are the same, OK?" Doris blinked.

"Yes..." Ajima didn't know what to say back, looking at the sincere face. She suddenly felt that there was something faint in her eyes. This kind of feeling that she had never seen before for a long time was strange. It was like a rust. The iron lock is even sour when it is turned on again. However, she tried her best to endure. As a leader who is trusted by everyone, the words just now are out of order. She can't allow herself to make a mistake again.

Just then, a knocking sound was heard outside the door.

"Who?" She hurried to the beginning and pulled back and stood up, both asking and disguising.

"It's me, Wendy," the other replied. "Roland wants to talk to you."
