You Fei, who was holding snacks, looked at the sunglasses on Xiao Ran's face. Her big bright eyes flashed with surprise and regret. She shook her head and said, "What a pity. This disease must make you very uncomfortable. I feel that you should have a pair of bright and beautiful eyes, but you can only hide in the darkness forever. In fact, the colors in this world should be more beautiful."
Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows. He truly felt You Fei's kindness and pity for him. However, facing this girl's kindness, Xiao Ran just smiled and said, "If you get used to it, you won't feel any difference. Even so, my eyes can see more beautiful sceneries, such as the beautiful lady sitting in front of me."
Suddenly praised by Xiao Ran, You Fei's face blushed. She lowered her head and asked softly, "Have you seen a doctor about your eyes?"
"Of course." Xiao Ran nodded and sat next to You Fei. However, he was very careful to sit about a body's length away from You Fei. He didn't get too close to this kind girl and said, "The doctor said that this is a genetic problem and there is no effective way to treat it. If it is treated, then I may be half crippled."
"That's a pity." Euphemia tilted her head and glanced at Xiao Ran. She found that Xiao Ran didn't seem to care about his eyes. Of course, there was nothing wrong with Xiao Ran's eyes. They just glowed automatically.
The two of them suddenly fell silent because of the topic of Xiao Ran's eyes. You Fei felt that she shouldn't comfort Xiao Ran at this time. After all, Xiao Ran didn't seem to care about this problem. If she really comforted Xiao Ran, it would make Xiao Ran feel that she cared a lot about it. Besides, it would also hurt Xiao Ran, who was' sick '.
Xiao Ran felt a little apologetic to this kind and naive girl. But even so, Xiao Ran didn't change his idea of using You Fei to achieve his goal. He just felt that if there was a chance, he would make it up to this girl.
But the silence between the two didn't last long. A black cat ran in front of You Fei and stared at the snacks in You Fei's hand.
"Do you want some?" You Fei's eyes lit up when she saw the black cat. She didn't hide her love for the black cat. She squatted on the ground and slowly handed out snacks to the black cat. After the black cat took a few steps back, perhaps it felt You Fei's sincerity. Its original vigilance instantly disappeared and turned into gentleness. It meowed at You Fei, "Meow."
Xiao Ran watched You Fei squatting on the ground to feed the cat. She then slowly hugged the cat in her arms and turned around to face him with a smile, "Mr. Xiao Ran, do you like cats?"
"Fortunately, I also have a lot of cats." Xiao Ran smiled, put down the drink in his hand, and stood up. He reached out and touched the head of the docile and unresisting cat. After rubbing it twice, he said to You Fei, "It's a pity that those cats aren't with me now. Those are some very precious and special cat breeds. You Fei, you probably haven't seen them before."
"Really?" You Fei looked curious and expectant, "I've never seen a cat before. It should be a very special cat, right? I really want to see what it looks like. "
"Yes, that kind of cat especially likes water. They live by the sea and are very good at swimming. Although most of them are short-haired cats, their fur is very smooth." Xiao Ran smiled and said, "If there's a chance, I'll give you a pair when the time comes. Consider it a gift for meeting you today, but it'll probably take a long time."
Xiao Ran thought of the special cat breeds with fish tails that he got on Planet Ragnar in the Brichgaman Star Cluster. It was definitely not a problem to say that You Fei had never seen such a sea cat before. Probably no one in this world had ever seen such a sea cat.
"I'm looking forward to it." You Fei hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she nodded solemnly to Xiao Ran. She probably really liked pets like kittens. Otherwise, she wouldn't accept gifts from others so casually. But the key was that the cat that Xiao Ran mentioned was indeed very special. A cat that lived by the sea and liked to swim was really something that she had never seen before.
You Fei once again saw Xiao Ran's gentle smile. She couldn't help but quickly lower her head to touch the head of the kitten in her arms, but her head suddenly tilted slightly. She lifted the kitten up with some surprise, "So you're injured. In that case, you need to be treated."
After saying that, You Fei looked up at Xiao Ran again, "Mr. Xiao Ran, can you lend me some money to buy something to treat the kitten?"
Xiao Ran had no reason to refuse, "Of course."
Xiao Ran also glanced at the wound on the kitten at the same time. However, there were only some scratches on the kitten's front legs. Although it wasn't a big problem, it would still affect the kitten's normal activities. Since You Fei wanted to treat the kitten, Xiao Ran certainly wouldn't refuse such a small thing.
The two left the park with the kitten and began to look for a pharmacy nearby. Along the way, the two were talking and laughing. There was also a black kitten. They looked quite harmonious.
Suddenly, Xiao Ran, who was talking to You Fei, quickly glanced at a special truck parked on the side of the road. His eyes showed a thoughtful look. After glancing at the girl beside him, he thought, "This person … seems to be a special person. This truck is loaded with the Lancelot driven by Suzaku Suzaku?"
"But, why are these people here?" Xiao Ran's face seemed like nothing had happened, but he thought, "Is it for You Fei? It should be right. Suzaku Suzaku is the test pilot of Lancelot, and it is very valued by the special person. However, Suzaku Suzaku, who was originally declared innocent, has not been released yet. The special person must be worried that something will happen during this period, so they want to bypass the court that can't be communicated with at all. They want to contact the princess and ask the court to immediately release Suzaku Suzaku. But now is not a good time for them, so they chose to follow her in this way to find a suitable opportunity to contact her. "
Xiao Ran smiled lightly, but he didn't take this matter too seriously. After buying bandages and potions with You Fei, he returned to the park with the kitten again. When You Fei cured the kitten, the sun had gradually begun to set. Unknowingly, Xiao Ran and You Fei had been together for several hours.
After watching the cured kitten leave, You Fei stood up with her back to the sun. She gently stroked her pink long hair and looked at Xiao Ran with a smile, "I'm really happy today, Mr. Xiao Ran. Thank you for accompanying me for a day."
"You're welcome." Xiao Ran shook his head and smiled, and said, "I also feel very happy to accompany a kind and lovely girl like you for a day."
You Fei didn't blush because of Xiao Ran's words at this time. After pursing her lips, she said, "Mr. Xiao Ran always makes people feel very comfortable when you talk. Pardon me for asking, but Mr. Xiao Ran shouldn't be from the 11th district, right?"
"Not really. If I have to say, I should be a Butalian." Xiao Ran rubbed his chin and said, "But I've been living in the 11th district for a long time, so I know a lot about it. What's wrong? Is it because I'm not from the 11th district that I'll cause you any trouble?"
"It's not like that." You Fei quickly shook her head and said, "I don't have any opinion of Mr. Xiao Ran. I just want to know what Mr. Xiao Ran thinks of the 11th district and the people here."
"Opinion?" Xiao Ran pondered and gently shook his head, "It's very pitiful. Although a small number of people have the honorary identity of Butalians, more people can only live in the ruins outside the bustling city. Their lives are not guaranteed, and even if they are sick, it is difficult to get treatment. Just a while ago, they were massacred by some people. Even their lives are not guaranteed. But for those people, I don't have much ability to help them."
"Is that so?" When You Fei heard these words from Xiao Ran, her eyes became gentler. After lowering her head and thinking for a while, You Fei raised her head and said firmly to Xiao Ran, "Mr. Xiao Ran knows the 11th district very well, right? Then can you take me to see the ruins outside? If I live here, I also want to know what kind of difficulties the people living in the ruins face."
Xiao Ran was silent for a moment and said, "It is very dangerous there. All the people in the 11th district are very hostile to Butalians. If you are not careful, you will encounter danger. Do you still insist on going to such a place?"
"Yes." You Fei nodded solemnly, "I insist, but if Mr. Xiao Ran thinks it is very dangerous, there is no need to accompany me all the time."
"How can I do that?" Xiao Ran smiled. He originally wanted to reach out and pat the girl's head, but just as he reached out, he reacted and touched his chin. He said, "I said before that I'm your guardian today. Since you insist, I'll definitely accompany you. Also, I said before that I'm very powerful. As long as I'm here, no one will be able to hurt you no matter who it is."
Xiao Ran gestured with his hand, "Let's go, beautiful lady. I am your knight today. No matter where you go, I will accompany you."
You Fei squinted her eyes and smiled, "Thank you, brave knight. Then let's go."
Xiao Ran did not say this to tease You Fei. Instead, he said this in a joking manner to deepen You Fei's memory. Although the effect was not great, at least when You Fei thought of knights, she would naturally think of what was happening now. She would remember that Xiao Ran had once been her knight. Although it was only temporary and fake, temporary could become permanent, and fake would naturally become real.
It wasn't too troublesome to go to the ruins. At least for the Britarians, it was very easy to enter and exit the outpost. When the two left the outpost, they didn't even get questioned by anyone and easily left the bustling city and entered the ruins.
Originally, You Fei still had a happy expression on her face along the way. However, after entering the ruins, she gradually saw the dilapidated city. Tombs erected everywhere in the city were made of wood or iron pipes. The smile on You Fei's face gradually began to disappear and was replaced by a sad and silent expression.
Finally, they passed by a tomb that seemed to have appeared only a few days ago. You Fei's eyes were also full of sadness, but she forced herself to remember everything in the ruins in her heart. She wanted to empathize with the pain of the civilians in the 11th district.
Xiao Ran did not disturb You Fei too much along the way. He let You Fei think about what she had seen. Feeling You Fei's pain, Xiao Ran gently shook his head. When the sky was dyed with a layer of red at dusk, Xiao Ran pulled You Fei, "It's almost time. We should go back. Staying in this place will not bring you any joy. This is not a suitable place for sightseeing."
"Okay." You Fei nodded silently. She lowered her head and followed Xiao Ran, preparing to leave the ruins and return to the bustling city. After the two walked for a long time, You Fei suddenly said, "I saw a lot of pictures of the children. The pictures appeared in those places, so it means that those children are now gone, right?"
"That's right. Although the truth is cruel, the children who are gone will only see more than you. But so what? You and I don't have the ability to change all of this. Even if we have power, we can't change all of this." Xiao Ran's eyes flickered twice, and he deliberately said in an emotional tone, "The previous Governor, Culovis, didn't treat the people of the 11th district as humans at all. He only treated them as trash and inferior creatures. He only knew how to talk about his benevolence, but didn't make any arrangements for the people of the 11th district at all. He left them to fend for themselves outside."
"But so what? The people who have lost their country and are living in ruins don't have the ability to change all of this at all. As long as they have the slightest intention of changing things, Culovis' Freikorps and pure-blooded officers will descend here and cause them even more harm."
"I've always sympathized with these people, but sympathy won't bring them any help, and I don't dare to bring them any help. It's funny, because those who receive help will be seen as a waste of resources in the eyes of some people. And people like me who are willing to help them will be seen as rebels. I have power but can't display it because of a leader's thoughts. In order to avoid getting involved in the chaos and bringing more trouble to those who are already working hard, I can only choose to be a bystander."
Xiao Ran stopped in his tracks and revealed a gentle smile to You Fei. "People like me, although I say that I want to help them and have the power to do so, I choose to ignore them coldly in the end. Aren't people like me hypocritical? Hypocritical too? "
