Chapter 558: Reciprocity
Alice couldn't understand.
Why did Shuo En reject her request before, but now he changed his mind?
Xu En himself knows very well what it means to follow Alice to the Balancer branch...
She will be interrogated in the interrogation room, and will also have to live in the prison of the Demon Control Group to accept the punishment for violating Creedo's rules. If Xu En is also a victim... this is not fair to herself at all.
"You can't go, Ah-Rong!"
The graduate who was pinned to the ground by the giant black and white tiger became agitated again and struggled to break free from Zhongfen's control.
However, in front of the huge tiger, his strength was insignificant. Even if he tried his best, he would only be tired and out of breath.
The veins on the young wizard's forehead popped out, and his face turned slightly red due to excitement. Because the movement was too big, the wound on the palm of his hand was torn, and hot blood flowed out, staining his palm red.
"A'Rong?"
Catching the key words spoken by the graduates, Tai Tai subconsciously repeated them.
Alice remembered that when she was on the second floor, the clown in the magic mirror used to call Zhuo En "Miss". Now, as the graduate behind the scenes, she calls Zhuo En "Ahuan".
The two things were connected together, which made her think of a possibility:
Shun En and this graduate have a very close relationship. The two of them may have been living in this building, or even...
"He is my brother."
Zhuo En ignored the struggling graduates and explained to the two young wizards standing next to the white sarcophagus.
"Another surprising thing, interesting~" The wand hidden in his sleeve moved, and Wade seemed to be energetic.
"Before I go to the Balancer branch with you, I hope you can accept this."
As Zhuo En spoke, he took off the sapphire necklace he had been wearing from his neck, carefully held it in his hand, and handed it to the blond little wizard standing next to the sarcophagus.
In the palm of a hand as clean and white as snow, the sapphire lying quietly is transparent, bright and spotless.
Seeing his sister's actions, the young wizard who was pinned to the floor by the tiger suddenly stopped struggling and looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment. His mouth was open, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Why did you give this to me?"
Looking at the sapphire necklace, Alice did not refuse or accept it.
Frowning her beautiful eyebrows, she asked the owner of the necklace why.
As if he had expected that Alice would not accept it, a smile bloomed at the corner of Shuo En's mouth,
"I knew you would react this way. If I tell you the reason...are you still willing to do it?"
Hearing a trace of hesitation in the other party's tone, the blond little wizard thought seriously for a few seconds, then nodded slightly, "If I can accept this reason, I will accept it."
Zhuo En held the sapphire necklace in his hand, lowered his eyelashes, and told the reason for the gift in a soft voice:
"This gemstone, called topaz, represents true friendship. I have always wanted to have a friend and give topaz to her."
Zhuo En raised his head, looked into Alice's eyes, and winked his left eye playfully, "But I have changed my mind now. Even if you are not my friend, I still want to give it to you... Are you willing?
accept?"
Nodding slightly under Zhuo En's expectant eyes, Alice raised her hand, curled her fingers forward slightly, and used the ability to retrieve objects from the air to take away the topaz pendant from the opponent's hand.
Instead of putting the pendant in her sleeve, she put the pendant in her hand around her neck in front of Shuo En and everyone else.
The little blond wizard smiled brighter than the spring sunshine,
"From now on, I will be your friend. En."
Tails does not approve of what Alice does. You know, if En is the sister of the person behind the scenes, then En is likely to take the initiative to become his brother's pawn.
He is a guilty person.
If you become friends with someone who deliberately breaks the rules, you won't be afraid of being judged by others?
People who violate the rules have a high chance of becoming evil wizards.
If you are friends, you will inevitably be involved in all kinds of troubles in the future. This approach is not wise at all. To put it more directly - this is emotional!
"This gemstone necklace does not pose a safety hazard. Even if you wear it all the time, it will be good for your mental strength." The Void Wand quickly identified the gemstone with its sophisticated eyes.
Not only Tails, but also the brother and sister who broke the rules did not expect that Alice would be willing to become Long En's friend.
"Alice, have you really thought about it clearly? If you want to regret it later, it will be too late!" Tails lowered his voice and whispered into the ear of the little blond wizard.
"You're just being friends, you're not trying to kill me. What's wrong?" She shrugged slightly, the smile on Alice's face remained unchanged, and her tone was relaxed.
She also understood the tail's reminder.
But if Shun En is willing to take the initiative to go to the Balancer branch for interrogation for her sake, then why can't she realize the other person's long-cherished wish? She once heard Abu say a word: reciprocity.
The superficial meaning of this word is to pay attention to the interactions between each other in terms of etiquette.
In fact, it means treating the other person with the same way and attitude that the other person treats you.
Alice didn't care about her identity. She was a child abandoned by her parents. She grew up in an orphanage and was nicknamed "ugly".
People may pity her because she was an orphan, or they may hate her because of the ugly birthmark on her face.
She doesn't care now.
I have no interest in caring about the status of others.
Alice's idea is very simple. As long as they are friends, she will treat each other sincerely.
Now that Alice has made up her mind, Tails can't persuade her. After all, she and Alice are only half-friends in name, and they don't know much about each other. So she chooses to remain silent.
"Oh, by the way, there are two reasons why I didn't touch your hand just now: one is that I don't want to earn your good luck and magic power for nothing; the other is that I haven't completely relaxed my vigilance against you. If
What should I do if I accidentally get a curse?"
The blond little wizard stretched out two fingers, put the fingertips together, and explained seriously as if he was doing a magic problem.
She was already cursed by Professor Magic Stone. If she was cursed again, she would have to suffer a lot more. Who would want to be cursed?
Is it really okay to speak your mind directly like this?
Tails continued to purse her lips with a speechless expression and remained silent. She really wanted to roll her eyes. She had never seen an idiot like Alice who casually told others what was on her mind.
But...this is probably part of her charm, right?
What on earth was I thinking!
Tails shook his head. When did the word "silly" become an attractive charm... Was she led into a fool by Alice?
Alice didn't understand Tails' psychological activities at this time, nor did she care about it.
She may hurt Zhuo En's heart by directly speaking her innermost thoughts like this. Before Zhuo En could speak, the graduate who was slapped to the ground by Zhongfen with his tiger claw couldn't help but interrupt, and he looked very
Excited:
"You are not allowed to doubt Ah-Rong like this. Ah-Rong is definitely not such a vicious person!"
However, Shun En, who was suspected, seemed very calm, not angry, and did not feel sad because of being suspected.
"The personalities of these two people don't seem to be similar at all. This girl named Shuo En is much prettier than his brother - are they really brothers and sisters?" The Void Wand seemed to have discovered a key question.
.
If these words were heard by graduates, it would definitely hurt their self-esteem.
"Indeed, sincerity is mutual. Alice, it's normal for you to doubt me." Zhuo En said calmly in a soft voice, "So, I want to tell you those things about me."
"If you find me lying, you can kill me."
The corner of Zhuo En's mouth raised slightly, and then she seemed to have mustered up the courage. She stretched out a hand and stood up holding the sarcophagus coffin:
