Gabriel's face showed a hesitant expression, and the embarrassed expression became more intense, which also made Roman feel bad.

"Is there a problem?"

"Mr. Roman, can you treat me to a meal?"

"What, what?"

"My living expenses have already been used for tuition, so please treat Mr. Roman."

"……you are hopeless."

It seems that not only can there be no way to leave the meal money, but also have to spend more.

PS: There is an update for the time being today.

Chapter 178 Chapter 17 Vinette (Part 1)

Meanwhile, another member of the Ajman family was working on his own lunch. However, unlike Roman worrying about how to have a meal left, Xiao Zi can't make a decision because he has too many choices.

Chinese? Japanese style? Or Western? Even, there are various storefronts for each of them.

In fact, Xiao Zi had already planned today's itinerary yesterday, but she accidentally went too far while chatting and walking with Vinette.

The two young girls are walking along the road, and they will attract attention even on the streets full of youthful atmosphere.

Although it's still spring break, the weather has already begun to sultry, so to some extent, it's a boy's paradise. Because of the hot weather, the surface temperature is very high. In order to dissipate heat, girls who go out will wear cool clothes as much as possible. In this case, fair skin, slender thighs, and shaky breasts, every part of a cute girl will become the most wonderful scenery for a boy with strong blood.

It is worth mentioning that the above scenery is destined to miss Xiao Zi. Well, no matter what.

He was wearing an airtight long skirt, neither ankles nor wrists could be seen, and even a white cloth hat covered the blond hair on his head, only the skin at the neck was exposed to the air. However, even in this conservative outfit that makes people feel hot all over, Xiao Zi will still become the focus of many men and women. Her body exudes a demure and noble atmosphere, and her bookish air makes her look like an elegant literary girl. In this materialistic society, Xiao Zi's temperament is like a clear stream in the mixed river.

For some unknown reason, Weinett, who was with Xiao Zi, was always one step behind Xiao Zi on the whole journey. Whether it was speeding up the road or stopping to wait for the red light, Vinette had been standing diagonally behind Xiao Zi. Unlike Xiao Zi who is wearing a hat, Vinette is holding a small parasol in her hand, but if anyone notices, they will find that Vinette's little parasol always blocks the fierce sun for Xiao Zi in front of her, but Indifferent to myself being exposed.

It's like a noble lady who is waiting for her boudoir to go out to play with her maid.

Perhaps, it is because of this feeling that the two of them become the focus of everyone.

Xiao Zi didn't notice this phenomenon, and Vinette didn't have this self-consciousness either, but Vinette could actually take care of Xiao Zi in a subtle way without being discovered, so it seems that she is also a very powerful one. people. Maybe she's good at taking care of people, maybe.

"Winette."

"Anything to order?"

"...It's too much to say that the order is too much." Xiao Zi was surprised by Vinette's wording, but she didn't care too much about it, "Is it okay to eat Western food for lunch? Maybe it's not as authentic as yours here. But online reviews are pretty good.”

Xiao Zi stopped in front of a western restaurant, which was the best western restaurant in the neighborhood she had just found on the Internet. Compared with Western food, Xiao Zi actually prefers Japanese and Chinese food, but in order to take care of her classmate's Vinette, she finally decided to choose Western food.

"I have no problem, as long as you like Meili."

"???"

The two finally decided to walk into the western restaurant, opened the seat for Xiao Zi at Vinette, then handed her the menu in person, and finally sat opposite Xiao Zi, which finally made Xiao Zi realize that something was wrong.

What to say? Wenette has a feeling of overly ingratiating herself with Xiao Zi. Maybe Winette herself didn't find out, or she was used to finding someone like this, so she naturally treated Xiao Zi like this.

"How's it going? Did you like the place you walked just now?"

"My favorite place... Well, the zoo is very interesting. Next time I have time, I will continue to come." Probably remembering the scenery she saw when she walked into the zoo just now, Vinette's lips showed a satisfied smile, "Sloths are cute, that languid look, and monkeys, if only they were a little quieter."

"The monkey's voice is very sharp, and when many monkeys scream together, the ears will hurt." Xiao Zi narrowed her eyes and began to recall the animals she saw at the zoo, "but today's weather is not suitable for outdoor Activities, if it's spring and autumn, we can spend more time watching animals, and it's the first time I've found that the zoo is so big, and it took me a morning to barely finish the zoo."

Because the weather is too sunny, even thin clouds and mists can't be found in the sky, and the sun's rays almost hit the ground directly. Walking outdoors will make people feel unbearable. If it wasn't for Vinette's umbrella, Xiao Zi might fall down after walking through the zoo, after all—

"Because Meili doesn't seem to be very good at sports?" Vinette smiled, as if she had found something interesting.

"I should have found out right from the beginning. Girls who like to wear skirts are very concerned about their own image and will avoid showing embarrassing behavior. There must be very few types like Meili who wear long skirts when they leave the house. Exercise is the right thing to do."

"That's right, Vinnett's observation skills are really strong."

Xiao Zi nodded, and at the same time was amazed at Vinette's insight and inference ability.

"Because I am usually very busy and need to take care of my lazy father in addition to taking care of myself, it is difficult to make time for exercise. Except for the physical education class at school, I have hardly experienced physical exercise, so I am very poor at outdoor activities. ."

"Huh? Will Merry still take care of Mr. Roman? It's amazing."

"No way, my father is actually very busy. Not only does he have to study university courses, but he also needs to take care of his livelihood, so..."

"so?"

Vinette was very strange, and Xiao Zi suddenly stopped talking in a strange place.

However, Weinett didn't know that Xiaozi felt even more strange about Weinett's reaction, because Weinett's reaction was very dull, she just cared about why Xiaozi suddenly shut up, not that "Xiaozi's father was just a a college student".

Gabriel is like this, Vinette is like this, is it common in foreign countries that "the father of a junior high school graduate is a college graduate"? However, I heard that most European countries are very open, and many families get married and have children at a very young age, so it seems to make sense.

But the father of the junior high school graduate is a high school graduate, so is the mother the same? Is it really okay for two generations to be less than ten years apart?

"Vinette, I have a question, please answer me."

"what do you wish to ask?"

"Please tell me where is your hometown?"

Facing Xiao Zi's aggressive questioning, her unwavering gaze made Vinette's heart start to tremble, and her eyes began to dodge unconsciously.

——Should she have found out? - No, it is impossible to know.

After a moment of shaking, Vinnett's emotions began to calm down. Although Xiao Zi's question was extremely oppressive, her eyes were more filled with doubts and curiosity, rather than knowing the truth, that is to say, she didn't find out about it.

Vinette couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, since it wasn't the case that was discovered, it's easy to say.

But even if she felt relieved, Vinette couldn't help but took a sip from the water glass at the table, calming down her startled heart.

"Why does Merry suddenly ask such a thing?"

"Well... just curious, and if I suddenly think of it, I find that Vinette doesn't look like a foreigner." Xiao Zi thought for a while, and quickly found clues from the details of the past, "Obviously he came to Japan from a foreign country. I studied abroad, but I am very good at Japanese cuisine, and I understand Japanese customs like a textbook. I am also very familiar with Japanese, there is no communication barrier, and I write very fluently.”

"That, that's because, in order to study in Japan, I worked hard to prepare a lot."

However, when Vinnett explained, not only was her tone stammered, but her voice was also very low, which made it not convincing at all.

"And just now at the zoo..." Xiao Zi's eyes became even more strange, "Vinette, have you never been to the zoo?"

Thinking of the startled performance of Vinette when she was watching at the zoo just now, and then shouting from time to time, she felt like a country bumpkin who came to the city for the first time.

A foreign country bumpkin? This is nothing like it at all, but more like a big family living in another dimension, um, living in the deep mountains and forests, and has never seen a big family in the world.

But it is very strange that Winette always gives a feeling of being cautious. Is it an illusion?

Xiao Zi keenly captured this. Although Winette is trying her best to cover up, her concealment skills are not excellent, so Xiao Zi can still observe it. At first, she thought it was because Vinette came to study in Japan from abroad, so she felt unfamiliar and uneasy about the unfamiliar country. But with the contact between the two, even if Xiao Zi and Vinette had already begun to get to know each other, this feeling not only did not disappear, but became more obvious.

Perhaps it was because the two were already familiar with each other, so Xiao Zi could more easily feel the concerns hidden in the heart of Vinette, who was defenseless against her.

"Because there is no zoo in my hometown, and those animals have only been seen in books, so I will be very excited to enter the zoo for the first time, ha, ha, ha ha..."

- Laugh so fake.

Winnett explained to Xiao Zi, and at the same time gave out a laughter that stopped like a robot, and couldn't feel the happy emotion from it at all, because it was a very clumsy disguised laughter.

Besides, when she was in the zoo, Vinette didn't feel excited at first. Instead, she was afraid to stand far away when she saw the snake in the garden, as if the python inside would fly in the next moment. Get up and eat her.

Chapter 179 Chapter 18 Vinette (Part 2)

Xiao Zi could see that Vinette was not sincere, and she didn't seem to be good at concealing and deceiving, so Xiao Zi could tell at a glance. But even so, Xiao Zi has no intention of continuing to ask questions, and it is better to do less things that embarrass others. Besides, this is not an important thing in the first place, everyone has their own privacy, and it is normal to have ulterior motives, such as Xiao Zi herself, she can't tell Vinnett that she is only four years old, and Not human.

Therefore, after Xiao Zi said a simple sentence, she did not continue to ask questions on this matter.

However, Xiao Zi let Wenette go, but she didn't know that this would put more pressure on Wenette. Xiao Zi gave up the questioning and should have let her breathe a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she felt ashamed for concealing Xiao Zi.

Xiao Zi really regarded her as a friend. Although the first encounter between the two was very dramatic, it was because of this that the relationship between the two, who shared a common secret, could develop very quickly, becoming close friends in just a few days. Because of this, when Xiao Zi mentioned it, Vinette remembered that she had an important thing to hide from her friends.

This matter has nothing to do with Xiao Zi, but it is very important - Vinette, not a human being.

Not humans, but other races, and then disguised as humans and sneaked into human society.

Tsukigase Venet April is actually a demon, a demon living in **** in Western mythology and legends. However, unlike the knowledge spread by human beings, in fact, the place where demons live is the underworld, not hell. The two are different. In addition to the demons living in the underworld, there is another race, that is, the fallen angels, which are a new race formed after the angels in heaven have fallen for various reasons.

Heaven, the underworld, and the human world, the three worlds are actually interconnected. However, unlike the human world, the borders between heaven and the underworld are heavily guarded, and strong barrier barriers are set up, and ordinary angels and demons cannot pass through. On the contrary, the human world lacks such a strong person to rule the world, nor does it have a powerful magician who can protect the world, so the human world is simply an undefended city relative to the two.

In fact, a long time ago, the human world has always been very chaotic. In addition to demons, angels, and fallen angels, there are all kinds of monsters, gods, dragons, and many races raging in the weak human world, and wars can be seen everywhere. However, the return of war is not the theme of the world. Although war will not disappear, war has never existed for war itself. After the washing of the years and the evolution of history, the forces in the human world have become more complex, but the chaos is no longer, and the weak human world has also ushered in a rare peace.

The current human world has become very sensitive due to the intricacies of various forces. No matter which race appears without any scruples, it will usher in the investigation of various forces, and even a little attention will lead to a new war. Therefore, if it is not necessary, the outside races will not come to the human world, and even if they appear, they will try their best to cover up their whereabouts.

Vinnett isn't actually a powerful demon. Although it is already dozens of times that of Xiao Zi in terms of age, the race of demons depends on talent.

There are seventy-two demons, that is, the seventy-two demon gods circulating in the world, and each clan hides corresponding talents and abilities. If it is a pure-bred demon, it is very likely to awaken the talent of the tribe and become a powerful demon in one fell swoop. Even if there is no awakening, it is not too difficult to become a great demon because of the bloodline. As long as the time is long enough, the power hidden in the bloodline will gradually awaken, and the magic power inside will gradually burst out.

Therefore, the decisive factor that determines the power of a demon is more the bloodline that the demon possesses, rather than relying on acquired hard work.

Winette is not a pure-bred demon, which has already determined that she will not become a powerful demon in the future, but she has no place to complain, because she is not the type that pursues power. On the contrary, Winette prefers to live a peaceful life rather than a powerful force, and is a rare pacifist in the underworld.

Even the type of extinction in the underworld is not surprising, because so far, no demon will stop the pursuit of power, and no demon will be drowned and peaceful. This is caused by the environment of the underworld and the nature of the devil.

Vinette's grandfather died in an ancient war, and her home was fading at that time. Her father later found a female demon who was not a purebred to marry, and gave birth to Vinette, who was also not a purebred demon. It can be said that Vinette was the willful product of her father. In the underworld, in order to maintain the purity of blood, pure-bred demons generally only combine with pure-bred demons to give birth to equally powerful pure-bred descendants. Willful behavior like Venette's father will only be laughed at by other demons.

However, as long as Vinette's father is not dead, he has the right to change his partner at any time and combine with other pure-blooded female demons. However, judging from the current situation, Vinette's father has no such plan, so the Vinette family has now been excluded from the upper class.

Vinet was bullied a lot when she was a child. After all, a **** demon stays in a group of pure-blooded demons. , or those demons looking at her father's face. However, after Vinette's father understood this, he moved when Vinette was still young. Later, he kept buying and contacting those purebred demons, and the family of three lived a poor but happy life. Life.

Saying this, it should be easy to understand why Vinette has no pursuit of power, and even yearns for peace more than any demon? Having left the group of demons, this family is out of tune with the real demons. Perhaps Vinette's parents will reveal their hidden claws at any time, but Vinette may only become a peaceful demon village girl in her life.

But interesting stories always take turns.

About four years ago, a powerful demon king suddenly appeared as the boss of Vinette's dead grandfather. It is said that in order to compensate the grandfather of Vinette who was killed in battle, the demon king decided to bring the April family of three into the territory, not only sheltering them, but also providing affluent living conditions, and Vinette was also at that time. Enter the Demon King's castle and become a glorious maid.

For Vinette, who pursues peace, this is simply a dream life.

Her job is very simple. Every day she only needs to take care of the housework, clean the house, organize the utility room, repair the garden, and take care of the demon king's family when necessary. Because there are many servants in the castle, and everyone is a very good demon, Vinette was treated very gently. Even because of the Demon King, Vinette still has the opportunity to go to a demon school that only pure-blooded demons can enter. Well, although the grades are worrying, and they will often be bullied, but overall the senses are still pleasing. of.

However, not long ago, Vinette was summoned again by the noble Demon King and was given an important task - to study in the human world.

Vinette even suspected that it was because the Demon King found out that she was being bullied at the demon school, so she would study her in a human school. Well, it doesn't seem like an important task to go to a school in the human world to learn how to take better care of people, right?

But this is not bad, anyway, Vinette will not doubt the decision of Lord Demon King, and parents have no right to object, so Vinette finally came to the human world.

In fact, it doesn't matter to Vinnett, it's just a change of environment (Vinett doesn't know the complexity of the forces in the human world), and only needs to spend three years in high school without being discovered. At that time, you can return to the underworld when you graduate. Although it may be a bit lonely during the time away from the underworld, but during the winter and summer vacations, you can go home through the secret passage leading to the underworld. From this perspective, it seems that it is no different from studying in a devil school.

Before leaving the underworld, Vinnett had obtained a lot of books about human knowledge from colleagues in the castle. It is hard to imagine that there are books about human beings hidden in the devil's castle, and the number of collections is full. A row of bookshelves, and even the knowledge of various grades of the human school. It took a few months for Vinnett to absorb the knowledge in the book almost like a sleepless night, only to barely understand the common sense and knowledge about human beings. However, there is a big gap between what I know from books and what I see with my own eyes. Since entering the human world, Vinnett will still make a lot of jokes, but in general, it is not bad. Pretty much what the book says.

Vinette felt very lucky, because she had made friends with human beings in just a few days of leaving the underworld, and she was still a very good person. In order to repay this friend for her help in the past few days, she already hoped to know more about the human city. She specially invited Xiao Zi to come out to play today.

"Does Vinette not like to be in the sun?" Xiao Zi, who was sitting opposite, took a sip of black tea, then scooped up the sugar from the pot and poured it into her own cup, "Maybe we should go to the beach to play. It's too hot in summer. It's not very suitable for walking on the street, and it will be more comfortable to go to the beach by the sea."

Vinette looked in the direction of the window, and through the glass, she found that the scenery outside the window had been distorted, which was due to the refraction of light caused by the high temperature.

Then, she looked up to the sky, just in time to see the noon sun.

The noon sun is the hottest and brightest in the day. Suddenly, Vinette's eyes felt a burning sting, and the pain made her hurriedly lower her head.

"Vinette, what's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"

PS: Plus the first update.

Due to the suspension of updates last month, a total of hundreds of collections have been lost, I am afraid it is not just the hundreds of people who read books.

Chapter 180 Chapter Nineteen (Part 2)

"No, it's fine, I'm fine."

Vinette rubbed her eyes and felt a lot better before looking back at Xiao Zi on the opposite side.

"My hometown is a place where it's hard to see the sun, so I don't feel comfortable when the sun hits me."

"I see. People who are not used to the sun can't stand it when they suddenly see the sun, so let's get used to the sun slowly." Xiao Zi squinted her eyes and showed a curious expression on her face, "I'm more curious about Vinette's hometown. Where is it, where the sun is hard to see, is it the South Pole or the North Pole? Don’t tell me it’s underground.”

"You two ladies, the dishes you ordered have arrived."

At the critical moment, the waiter in the restaurant appeared in time, which made Vinette, who didn't know how to answer Xiao Zi's question, breathed a sigh of relief.

During the next lunch time, Vinette's topic no longer involved her hometown, and Xiao Zi seemed to have forgotten about it.

Vinnett did not lie, the underworld is indeed a place where it is difficult to see the sun. To be precise, there is no sun in the underworld. If one day the sun can be seen in the underworld, it means that the war has begun, and that sun must be a blazing angel with all its strength.
