Alice also has her own secrets, and she even has a lot of secrets. If Yingxue is unwilling to tell her secrets, Alice will not get to the bottom of it. Everyone has their own secrets, and Alice respects Yingxue for keeping secrets.

s right.

"Now that our mission is completed, let's go find the minister and see if the clues over there are progressing smoothly."

Alice looked around and found nothing wrong. Then she remembered something, handed the black sphere she was holding to the girl in the red hood, and asked:

"By the way, what is this?"

Yingxue took the black ball, put it in front of her nose and smelled it. An unpleasant smell of cigarette ash emanated from the black ball, and the girl with red eyes couldn't help but sneeze.

"This is a dust ball that condensed when I was restoring the room. It contains the dust and smoke particles in the entire room as well as the remnants of magic. I collected many such dust balls as souvenirs after the restoration of the building. My home

There are a lot of dust balls hidden inside, enough to fill a lot.”

After listening to Yingxue telling the origin of the dust balls, Alice realized that Yingxue had a collecting habit, and it sounded like dust balls, but in fact wasn't it just dust and garbage?

You can imagine the mountain of dust balls piled up in Yingxue's house... This strange habit is a bit difficult for Alice to understand, but she still chooses to respect Yingxue's special hobby.

"But, this time is different, little lion, if you like it, I think..."

The hooded girl gently rubbed the dust balls in her hands, looking like she was hesitating to speak. There were two light blushes on her fair, baby-fat face. She also stammered when speaking because of nervousness and shyness.

Alice hugged the milk-parted cat and couldn't guess what Yingxue was going to say. She blinked her eyes curiously and asked proactively:

"What do I like? What do I like?"

After brewing for two seconds, the blush on Yingxue's cheeks deepened. She mustered up the courage to close her eyes and raised the dust ball in her hand to Alice's face. She could not hide her nervousness and said loudly:

"You, if you like it, I will give you this commemorative dust ball!"

After coming into close contact with the dust ball, Alice almost sneezed. Fortunately, she held her breath halfway and did not sneeze on Yingxue's face. This kind of ball that gathered dust and smoke did not cause any harm no matter how much she thought about it.

Useful, Alice is not like Ying Xue, who likes to collect such strange things.

But it seems that Yingxue must really hope that she can get her dust ball. Just when Alice was about to nod in agreement, the middle-parted cat in her arms jumped onto Alice's shoulder, and then ate it in one gulp with smooth movements.

The memorial ball looked dirty and exuded a strong smell of dust.

All of this happened so suddenly. Alice had no time to stop it, and Ying Xue had no time to escape. The commemorative dust ball fell into the mouth of the milk-splitting cat and was swallowed as food.

"...You can't eat this, it's dust, Zhongfen! Are you starving?"

Alice looked at the split-milk cat on her shoulder in astonishment. The split-milk cat, which had eaten a whole dust ball, patted its belly and burped with satisfaction.

"It turns out that cats also hiccup, so cute!"

Yingxue obviously paid attention to the wrong point. She rubbed her hands and looked at the milk-splitting cat with interest. She seemed as excited and happy as if she had discovered a new world. She did not feel sad or sad at all because the souvenir she gave to Alice was eaten.

"I don't know why it wants to eat your dust ball. Yingxue won't mind, right?"

Although Alice is not interested in dust balls, to Yingxue, dust balls are of great significance. After being eaten by her magic pet, Alice still feels sorry in her heart.

"Of course I won't mind. It seemed like he liked my dust balls very much, so he ate them excitedly. If there is a chance in the future, I will bring the dust balls from home and give them to the little lion's milk-splitting cat.

, I have many, many at home!”

When the milk-parted cat, who was stroking his belly with a satisfied expression, heard this, his two cat eyes suddenly lit up, showing an extremely excited expression. Before Alice refused, he nodded and expressed his thoughts.

"Is it really okay? My Zhongfen is a big eater."

Alice still had concerns. Putting aside the special habit of the milk-splitting cat that likes to eat dust, for Yingxue, those dust balls were of great significance. Isn’t it too much to just give them to the milk-splitting cat as a snack or something?

More casual?

"Little lion, you don't have to say anything anymore. I won't feel sorry for these dust balls. I'm satisfied if I can see the cat eating them in the milk."

Yingxue raised one palm up and placed the other hand horizontally, making a "stop" gesture, firmly rejecting Alice's tactful dissuasion.

Now that Yingxue has said so, Alice has no choice but to persuade her. Although she is still puzzled by the fact that the milk cat likes dust balls. But Alice believes that the milk cat will not be interested in food that is not nutritious.

interested.

Since cute cats like dust balls, it can at least be explained that this dust ball, which seems to have nothing special, is of certain benefit to the milk-splitting cat. Since one of the two parties is willing to feed it and the other is willing to eat it, then Alice

He nodded and agreed to the matter.

"You are very efficient in your work. You are worthy of being a young wizard from Creedo Academy."

At this moment, a familiar voice came from the door. Alice and Yingxue heard the sound and went out to see a beautiful woman with a hot figure and a good face, who seemed to be around 26 or 27 years old, standing there.

Wearing a black wizard robe, he was winking at Alice and the others.

"Who are you?"

Alice and Yingxue asked in unison, their voices and expressions were very confused. The voice sounded familiar, but they had never seen this young beautiful wizard Alice. This contradictory feeling made the two little wizards

Confused.

"Ah, we just met before. It's just that I changed my appearance. Can't Little Lion and Little Hood recognize me?"

The young beautiful wizard curled her lips, showing a somewhat dissatisfied expression. She frowned and looked condescendingly at the two dazed young wizards. Her eyes were as lethal as the tip of a knife.

Yingxue reacted in a flash, slapped her forehead and said loudly:

"You, you are the Minister of Magical Guidance! What a terrifying look, I will never admit it!"

The beautiful wizard who was recognized didn't feel happy or relieved at all. She was told so bluntly that her eyes were scary, and it was in front of a little lion. Isn't it too humiliating?

The young beautiful wizard, the Minister of Magical Guidance, looked at the slightly trembling little hood with a complicated expression, feeling mixed in her heart. Although the scene of the incident was handled in an orderly manner, was she that scary?

After all, she is considered an iconic beauty, but she actually scared a young wizard from Credo to the point where her face turned pale. This is too frustrating.

"Minister, why are you dressing up like this?"

Alice blinked curiously and asked doubtfully, letting Yingxue hide behind her. Although social phobia is a mental disorder, it is because of this that Yingxue is keenly aware of the true nature of the beautiful wizard.

identity.

Upon hearing this, the Minister of Magical Guidance stepped forward, pulled out a wand from his sleeve, waved it in the air a few times, then a gentle smile broke out on his face, he shook his head and patiently explained:

"This appearance is not made up. This is my original outfit. That aunty appearance is my disguise. Because in the human world, a beautiful and young witch like me is too easy to attract attention. So I thought

This is a way to turn yourself into a bloated middle-aged woman, so that you can work better and no longer attract attention."

Alice suddenly understood, nodded and said:

"I understand. And, minister, how is that demon? Has the evil wizard who sent the help letter been traced?"

The young Minister of Magic Guidance patted his chest and answered Alice's question confidently:

"Such a thing is a piece of cake. Now we have found the opponent's location. I just informed the base director of the third magic branch about this matter. The base director ordered the members of the Magic Execution Department to go to the evil wizard's lair. Soon

The evil wizard will be arrested. The efficiency of our third base is still pretty good!"

"Let's not talk about this for now. Our base can solve these things. Let's talk about the little lion now."

When the Minister of Magical Guidance turned the topic to herself, Alice pointed at her chin with blank eyes and said:

"...about me?"

Yingxue, who was hiding behind Alice, swallowed and took advantage of the opportunity when the Minister of Magical Guidance was not looking at her to whisper:

"The little lion wants to return to the orphanage, but he doesn't know the specific address or city. Can you help us?"

Upon hearing this, the beautiful wizard circled the wand twice around her finger, nodded happily, and said:

"That's what I want to say. What you don't know is that I have actually followed you all the way on the street. I have been observing secretly. This is one of my strengths. I already knew that you must have encountered each other.

Whatever the difficulty is, we will come forward to talk to it only after it is determined. Our magic base can help people in the magic world solve difficulties. This is a matter of responsibility."

Alice's bright amber eyes shone with joy, her voice rose slightly due to the emotional infection, the hair on her head stood up, and she asked quickly:

"Then do you have any way to help me find the Love Orphanage? Madam Minister?"

Yingxue also poked her head out from behind Alice, peeking curiously at the fiery director of guidance, pricking up her ears and waiting for the other party's answer. She was like a cute and timid little white rabbit.

"Although the world of Dumb Chicken is not as big as our magical world, it is not small at all. If you want to find the location of the Love Orphanage from here, it will take a long time to search using ordinary methods."

"Just by name, there are many places called Love Orphanages around the world. If you have to find them one by one, it would be too laborious and a waste of time. To be honest, I couldn't find the specific address right away."

The twinkling light in Alice's eyes dimmed, and she looked into the eyes of the Minister of Magical Guidance. Without giving up hope, she asked again:

"Do you have any other methods? For example, use magic to find the location of the orphanage related to me?"

The beautiful wizard, the Minister of Magical Guidance, saw Alice's slightly disappointed expression, and her heart was melted. She did not show off, gently rubbed Alice's little head, squatted down and looked at the blond little girl.

The witch had amber eyes under her long eyelashes, and when her brain became hot, she spoke:

"Although I don't have a quick way, Minister, we can find a fortune teller to find out the specific location of the orphanage. So don't be sad, little lion, okay?"

Alice nodded obediently, and then said seriously to the Minister of Magical Guidance:

"I'm nine years old, and the minister doesn't need to coax me like a child. But I still want to thank the minister for his comfort. It would be great if we could find a loving orphanage."

The Minister of Magical Guidance looked at the little witch with a childish face but firm eyes. Children of this age rarely have eyes as firm as Alice's. Thinking of the little lion's origin, an orphan without a father and a mother, trying to live hard, this

You must have suffered a lot along the way...

"If you have any difficulties when you come back to the silly chicken world in the future, remember to tell your sister and I will find a way to help you solve the problem. Even if you have to find your parents in the future, our magic base will help you.

,Sister, I will never break my promise."

Alice did not expect that the Minister of Magical Guidance would talk about her parents. She was slightly stunned, then nodded heavily and said seriously:

"If one day I need help, I will definitely remember to come to Sister Minister. Regarding my parents, they abandoned me, but I still grew up and became strong, and I will become even stronger in the future."

Although Alice did not say it explicitly, the Director of Guidance was not a fool. Of course, he could clearly understand that Alice did not have any thoughts of finding her parents at this moment. A child who was abandoned since childhood and grew up in an orphanage, what a difference to her

Parents' feelings should be much more complicated than those of children from happy families.

But one day, Alice will rekindle her desire to find her parents. After all, blood is thicker than water, how can she give up so easily just because they have never met?

In fact, what Alice did not tell the director of guidance was that when Alice was bullied and isolated when she was very young, she had been missing her father and mother who did not know where they were.

Imagine how they smile, and imagine that one day, they can appear in front of the orphanage, open their hands, and take her home.

But until Alice walked out of the orphanage and became a student at the Credo Academy of Magic, until she was nine years old, the two people named Dad and Mom, from beginning to end...
