Chapter 683 Cake

Walking in Fontaine with Frost, the purpose of Saphir's actions was unclear.

Shuanghua was very confused, but did not ask.

After a while, Furninna, yawning, came running to join them, carrying a strange object.

"That Villette asked me to pass this on to you. He said it might be useful to you." Funina rubbed her eyes, looking a little listless.

Saphir frowned and took it. He didn't ask what it was but asked with concern: "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"I dreamed of another me. In the dream, she was walking in front and I was chasing her from behind, but there was always a distance between us. I couldn't catch up with her no matter what. In the end, I could only watch her getting farther and farther away from me." Funina sighed lightly.

Saphir had also had a similar dream. People who have experienced unforgettable losses will indeed have similar dreams.

In response, Saphir said nothing. Let's talk about Fucaros' matter later. Just treat it as a surprise prepared for Funina.

"What are your plans for today?" Funina quickly perked up and asked with anticipation.

She knew that Saphir was planning to forge weapons, so she had been following him relentlessly for the past few days.

Saphir sat on a bench on the street: "Wait..."

The clothes she wore were not suitable for going out, and others might think it was unlucky if they saw her.

Shuanghua didn't say much after hearing this. She found a chair and sat down.

Last night, he and Ying reached a reconciliation for the first time, and their relationship became much more harmonious. This was a good sign, and even his emotions stabilized a lot.

The depression that used to weigh on my heart has dissipated a lot, as if the world has become more colorful.

Seeing how leisurely the two of them were, Funina suggested going out to eat some cakes, but due to Saphir's attire, she finally decided that she and Shuanghua would run errands and bring the cakes over.

Safir asked them to buy a few more pieces as there would be more people coming later.

The two left, and Safire sat alone on the bench with his head slightly lowered. People were coming and going on the street, and from time to time you could see children running happily by.

It reminded her of her own experience at this age.

Six-year-old Safir was lost in a snowy field, ten-year-old Safir cried on a rainy night, and eleven-year-old Safir... witnessed a fire burning his "mother".

"There's nothing to be sad about. I also had happy memories..." She tried to comfort herself. She had always done so in the past.

But today, when she tried to recall her happy childhood memories, she only got a blank. This made her stunned for a moment.

Yes, in order to fight against the abyss, she burned that peaceful and precious memory.

"I can't remember." She muttered to herself, then let out a bitter laugh, "It's nothing bad. I should have been prepared a long time ago."

The light red at the corners of her eyes spread a little, and then she raised her head and looked at the bright blue sky. The sun was high in the sky, dotted with a few white clouds. Just looking at this scenery, her mood would unconsciously become brighter.

"The cake is here!" After an unknown amount of time, Funina's voice woke Saphir from his trance.

When I came to my senses, a fork with cake on it was handed to my mouth.

The white-haired girl smiled and opened her mouth slightly: "Ah——"

"Ah——" Safir opened his mouth obediently and accepted the feeding from the other party.

A sweet feeling spreads in the mouth, and you can taste the fragrance of bird eggs if you chew it carefully. The delicate and soft taste fills the mouth, and the sufficient sugar stimulates the taste buds on the tip of the tongue. Swallow it slowly, and the smooth food falls into the stomach. The joy that grows from the bottom of your heart is the satisfaction brought by the dessert.

"Is it delicious?" Funina looked at Saphir who was eating the cake with anticipation.

Saphir nodded slightly: "Delicious."

I vaguely remember that I also loved eating cake when I was a child. There was a time when I would look forward to cake time every day. As long as I took a bite of the sweet cake, happiness would be like a bird that could not be caged, flying around in my heart, and an unconscious smile would appear on my face.

Later, I don’t know when I stopped eating it, I think it started when I was ten years old.

The taste has obviously not changed much, the cream is still sweet and the pastries are still fragrant, but when you put them in your mouth, they always taste bitter and not delicious.

Not tasty at all.

"Saphir...what's wrong with you?" Funina asked with concern.

Safir blinked his eyes quickly and forced a kind smile: "It's nothing, I just haven't eaten it for a long time. Maybe I'm not used to it."

Finina nodded, but her eyes were filled with worry that had not dissipated.

In her impression, Safir was a strong person and nothing could knock her down, but her eyes were red when she was eating the cake. Funina didn't believe that it was because she was moved by the delicious cake.

But since Safir didn't say anything, she didn't dare to ask.

"They should be here soon. Let's go to the platform and wait for them." Safir hurriedly took out a tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth, then ran towards the patrol boat platform not far away.

Seeing this, Funina immediately followed with the bag of cake.

Shuanghua was watching from the side, holding a small plate with unfinished cake on it.

He didn't want to follow him, as it was impossible to talk on the platform anyway. But considering that this was a craftsman hired by Saphir, he thought about it, quickly finished the cake in his hand, wiped the corner of his mouth casually, and chased after him.

Fushe and Kunfeng came here by patrol boat, and the first thing they did after getting off the boat was to find Saphir and pay their respects to her.

Safire introduced the people present to each other, and they got to know each other.

Fushe knew Shuanghua. After all, Zhongli had told him about this person. When he was still called Scaramucci, he had bullied Saphir and was beaten half to death by Saphir.

Originally, he was planning to give this kid a warning, but when he saw this guy following Safir like a follower, he gave up the idea.

Safir is a man who hardly bears grudges. If there was any grudge, he would have taken it long ago. Now that this kid can stand here safely, he must have made the other party pay a sufficient price.

"Please rest assured, Master Guizhong, with me, Fushe, here, I will definitely forge an extremely powerful weapon!" Fushe patted his chest and promised. He was a legendary blacksmith, there was nothing he couldn't forge.

Safir was naturally reassured about this: "Of course I trust you to do the job, but you also need to teach Kunfeng well. This is why I asked you to bring him here this time."

Kunfeng was so moved that he almost knelt on the ground to express his gratitude.

Because of the long journey, Saphir's idea is to take a day off today, discuss the key points and precautions of forging, and start forging work early tomorrow morning.

Funina brought the mark of the Dragon King, Shuanghua prepared the materials, and the blacksmith shop has been rented, the only thing missing is Xier.

Xier had something urgent to do and couldn't come today, so we have to wait until she arrives tomorrow.

Without her furnace of heaven and earth, the forging effect would be compromised. After all, this time the forging is for real fighting, not the second-best shadow fighting.

When Safir and his companions gathered to discuss, Ying and Xiao Paimeng had already arrived at the beach near Baisong Town.

Alechino was still here watching the sea, which made the two of them feel relieved.

Seeing the two people walking towards him, Alechino spoke first: "Nice to meet you again, you two, you look haggard, didn't you get enough rest last night?"

She was asking even though she knew the answer. Yesterday, she watched from the dark as Ying and little Paimon followed Klevi out and talked for a long time.

Little Paimeng didn't know that everything was seen by the other party, and said awkwardly: "Yes, a little..."

"If you worry less, you might be able to sleep better." Alechino consoled, "Aurora has too many worries every day, so she often suffers from insomnia and nightmares at such a young age.

OK, what do you want to do next? Take a nap or rack your brains to come up with new topics?

I am indeed a little curious. Since the young master is not here today, what reason do you have to keep me here?"

Her tone was playful, like a hunter teasing her prey.

Ying's scalp was numb and she was speechless.

Little Paimon immediately explained in a panic: "You...what are you talking about, we are just here to chat casually!"

"If you haven't made up your mind, how about going somewhere with me?" Alechino completely ignored their poor performance and put forward her own plan.

She had things to do today, so naturally she couldn't pay attention to Linny and the others' little tricks.

Or rather, there is no need for it anymore.

Ying subconsciously wanted to stop them, but Alecino spoke before her: "Don't be nervous, we will avoid those sneaky little guys."

"Uh... the sea breeze is so comfortable today..." Little Paimon started the awkward conversation.

But Ying couldn't pretend any longer, she came clean: "You know everything?"

Alechino was very satisfied with Ying's sudden honesty. She turned around and looked at the sea in front of her, saying meaningfully: "Children always think they can deceive adults, but I can see through their little tricks. Besides..."

She turned her head and looked into Ying's eyes: "What... made you think that you could escape Aurora's surveillance?"

Ying was speechless. In fact, she also felt the same way. Perhaps from the very beginning, their every move was under the control of Saphir and Alechino.

Even Linnet was called over by Saphir, so it was impossible for her to say that she didn't know what happened.

Ying suddenly felt relieved. Since these two people let them do whatever they wanted, it meant that they wouldn't cause any big trouble anyway. This was a good thing.

"Let them struggle for a while. I have enough patience. After all, as Aurora said, even if the attempt is doomed to fail, it is meaningful. A failed experience can also give people experience.

I'll go first. If you think clearly, follow me and we'll meet at the door of Momang Palace." After saying this, Alecino turned around and walked towards Fontaine.

When she reached Ying's side, she suddenly stopped and said softly, "Be good and listen, maybe they still have a chance of survival."

Having said this, Alecino left.

After she walked away, little Paimon shouted in despair, "What should I do? From her tone just now, it's obvious that she knows what we did, right?

And she is clearly blackmailing us.”

"Don't be anxious, Paimon. Release the magic pigeon that Linny gave us first." Ying was very calm and made the decision.

She took out the magic pigeon she had prepared long ago and released it directly.

Watching the pigeon fly away, Paimon prayed, "I hope Linnie and the others can receive our warning in time."

"It's no use, Paimon. Didn't you hear what she said? We couldn't have kept it a secret from the beginning.

If you don't understand the servant, don't you understand Saphir?" Ying smiled bitterly and shook her head, "The difference between our levels is too big."

Paimon heard this and said with a sad face: "I thought I could really keep it a secret, and I was complacent about it for a long time..."

"Let's go to Momang Palace first. The initiative is no longer in our hands. Even if it's for Linni, we have to go to the appointment. And..." Ying took out the Dongtian Pass, hesitated for a moment, and connected to Saphir's communication.

At the entrance of Beaumont Workshop, Saphir sensed the call request and took out his Dongtian Pass to answer the call: "What's the matter?"

"Saphir...I...I made a very serious mistake!" Ying's voice came weakly.

Hearing this aggrieved voice, Saphir couldn't help but chuckle: "Oh? What did you do wrong? Tell me about it."

"I... I wanted to help Krevi and Linny without telling you about the situation. I know I was wrong, can you..." Ying is a flexible person. She has been abused so many times anyway, so it doesn't matter if she gives in.

Safire listened quietly, blinking from time to time.

"Can you spare Linni and the others' lives? Please don't kill them. They are your brothers and sisters after all, right?" Ying wanted to awaken the little humanity in Saphir's heart and influence him with friendship and family affection.

After hearing this, Safir did not agree immediately, but asked: "What was your intention in getting involved in this matter? You are just a guest of the Hearth House. You should not be involved in these household affairs, but you still got involved.

Then you found that you couldn't solve it with your own ability, so you came to me to ask for mercy? But I was not involved in this matter from beginning to end. Even if you want to ask for mercy, you should ask Alechino, not me. "

"Only you can help Linny!" Ying did not mention what Alechino said about not being able to hide the truth from Saphir. What she wanted to do now was to separate Saphir from this matter and let her re-participate in it from an objective standpoint.

Only in this way can Linny and his team have a chance of survival.

Saphir was silent for a moment, then said, “I brought Linny and Linnet into the Hearth House, and many people know about this.

Because of this, I really treat them as my brothers and sisters. Although Femini and I are not close, I can see that he is just afraid. The three of them are good children, so I can't bear to see them being disposed of. "

Ying's eyes lit up slightly: "So, you agree to eat noodles to beg for mercy?"

"But I refuse." Saphir said the refusal without hesitation, which made Ying a little at a loss.

Her mind went blank for a few seconds before she subconsciously asked, "Why?"

“Let’s not talk about Femini. As the successor in Arecino’s mind, Linni ignored his father’s orders and chose to resist.

This is even more true for Linnet. Perhaps you don't know, but Linnet's martial arts were taught by Arlecino step by step. Her every move has the shadow of Arlecino. Do you know what kind of gift this is?

But even so, they still chose to betray. Hearth House does not allow betrayal. I will never waver from this position. "Sapphire's voice was so cold that Ying couldn't help but shiver.

Ying still had some hope: "Is there no room for improvement at all?"

"Ying, you have to know that on such a serious issue, Arlecino and I must maintain a high degree of unity. I can plead, but I must not be the first to do so. This is also for the stability of our family.

When parents are disciplining their children, if one of them adopts a strict attitude, the other should not step forward to protect the child, but should watch from the sidelines.

After the discipline is over, the other party can come out to comfort. So, if you want to help Lini and the others, the first thing you need to consider is how to give Alecino a reason to forgive.

With this step, I can continue to speak, and then she can come down the steps. "Safir said earnestly, "So what's important is not my attitude, but your role. Think about it carefully. Think about how to shake Alecino's will."

After saying that, Saphir hung up the call.

Ying frowned and held the cave pass in her hand, muttering to herself: "Shake...Alechino's will...

Parents, when disciplining your children...

I am a guest, what should I do..."
