Bronya also noticed something was wrong. After knocking down these quantum shadows, she took a breath and looked around: "We are already some distance away from the orphanage. Putting aside the quantum shadows, we didn't encounter them. There are no enemies in this deserted snowfield, but there are no Honkai beasts, not even carnivorous animals."
While Bronya was still thinking about the abnormality here, Xi'er discovered what was ahead. There is a small bush: "Sister Bronya, there is a small bush here."
Xier approached holding the axe, but it seemed that her body strength was not enough and she could not grab it. Seeing this, Bronya quickly pulled her away:
"Xie'er, don't hold on, let Bronya do it."
Bronya was a little nervous Worried about her condition.
Xi'er could see Bronya's constraints at a glance. Brother Chen Wang was also so worried at the beginning, and quickly waved his hand to show that it was okay:
"It doesn't matter, as long as it's in these In this world, I can maintain my current situation, and I also want to help and share some of the burden for Sister Bronya."
Brother Chen Wang has no habit of letting Xi'er bear heavy burdens. , in addition to being responsible for the safety of Wuliangta Jizi, he completely made Xier behave like a normal girl, as if she was going on a trip.
But helping to take care of Wuliangta Jizi is just staying in place, there is nothing consuming, Xi'er has always wanted to be able to help.
Lift the ax and chop it down hard, cutting off the thin branches. Seeing Xi'er's actions, Bronya did not stop her. And Xi'er waved the ax, with some memories flashing in her eyes:
"The life here is like the orphanage where we grew up. Seeing those children is like seeing us in the past." Er straightened up: "Although life is very difficult, everyone will work together to find a direction and maintain these small happinesses.
"Although we have all lost our family members, in the orphanage, we have another Got a new family. "
Collecting the scattered branches, Xier piled them into the open space without snow.
Xier would only say this when she was with Bronya. That's all. When she was with Chen Wang, if Chen Wang hadn't taken the initiative to find a topic, Xi'er wouldn't have said these things.
There are some things that only people who have experienced together can know. Some unique but tacit emotions can only be felt by people who have experienced them together. They will be happy when you are happy and feel uncomfortable when you are sad.
< p> This is something that only those who have experienced empathy can understand. These things may not be understood by others in their lifetime, but they are your treasures.Xi'er took a shallow breath. , his eyes were a little confused: "But... the children here seem to be a little disunited? It looks like Joachim is leaving the orphanage. ”
Bronya nodded: "Judging from the priest's words, he seems to have been adopted."
This is what Xi'er found strange: "For the orphanage, "It's a good thing to have a child adopted, but I always feel that Joachim's reaction is a bit strange."
What Xi'er can detect, Bronya can also notice: "There must be some secret behind it. We have to ask Theresa again. We have collected enough wood. Let's go back."
"Okay, Sister Bronya."
p>Bronya did not see that Xi'er behind her had a strange expression on her face at the moment, as if she was struggling and hesitating.
...
"Theresa, we are back."
Theresa took the firewood that Xier and Bronya carried back together. A smile appeared on his face: "Thank you, you have been a big help. Although life is very difficult, as long as the priest and everyone are here, we will be able to get through it."

She sorted the firewood and added some fire to the stove. It was obvious that she was used to these things, so she could do it so skillfully.
Bronya looked at Theresa in the firelight and was in a daze for a moment, but quickly came back to her senses: "When did Theresa come here?"
p>Theresa was silent for a moment after hearing this, and the smile on her face dimmed slightly: "I don't remember my parents at all. The earliest memory... is of me lying on the priest's shoulder."
When Teresa said this, her eyes were full of memories: "He tied me to his body and went to chop wood in the snow. There was snow outside, but the priest's body was very warm. He grew up I later learned that this orphanage was established by a priest.
“I am not the earliest child, but I should be the one who has stayed the longest. I like it here and I don’t plan to leave in the future. "
"What about Joachim? "
Bronya took advantage of the situation and asked.
"Why did you suddenly ask about him? "Theresa paused before speaking.
Bronya explained: "During lunch, you seemed to have some disputes. He will leave tomorrow. Bronya wants to know what happened. . ”
If you don’t get into the stories of several people, you will always be on the periphery and unable to touch the most fundamental issues. This is the general knowledge in the game, and it is also what Bronya does not want. .
Theresa looked at Bronya and Xier, with a look of struggle on her face: “I shouldn’t hide it from you... It’s not that there is any conflict between Joachim and me. The problem between the priest and him. "
"Did anything happen between the priest and him? "
Teresa glanced at Xi'er and slowly lowered her eyes: "Joachim's father was killed by the priest. ”
“!”
Bronya and Xier’s expressions suddenly changed: “How could this happen?”
“As far as I know, his father is A doctor has been studying how to bring back Joachim's mother who died of illness. He violated taboo knowledge
"At first, Joachim's father used mice for experiments; They turned into kittens and puppies. Finally, when he was discovered by the priest, he had already reached out to the wandering orphans..."
Xi'er opened her mouth in shock: "Ah...how could that happen? ..."
Teresa continued: "So, the priest killed Joachim's father...and then Joachim also became an orphan. "
Bronya calmly reasoned: "So, Joachim has always hated the priest. "
Teresa said: "If he really harbors hatred, it would be a relief. Joachim knew the crime his father had committed, and he also wanted to stop his father, but he was powerless.
"So, he didn't hold a grudge against the priest." Theresa's eyes were a little uncomfortable: "He came to the orphanage and took care of other children like a big brother. He would complain about anything. At the front.
"During that time, I thought he had forgotten the past..."
"Then what? ”
