Leo Li was struggling to lift the barrel weighing [-] kilograms out of the well.The metal bucket full of well water climbed up the wall of the well unsteadily, and he couldn't help but worry that the thick hemp rope that had rubbed his palms red would break.Just as he was so worried, the bucket that was about to be taken out sank, and the hemp rope was about to come out as soon as it rubbed along the lines of his palm. Leorio leaned out in a panic to grab the rope, but the other stretched out But the hand grabbed the handle.Leorio turned his head to look at Kurapika who had stepped forward to help, and grinned. The two of them worked together to lift the heavy bucket up. The moment it was placed on the ground, the full water swung out. Mostly.

"It's really choking..." Leorio took a step back carelessly to avoid the splashing water, and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, "The bucket is [-] kilograms, the clothes pole is [-] kilograms, push two tons How long will it take to open the first door?!"

Kurapika turned his head and glanced at Xiaojie who was struggling to dry clothes on a clothes rail with one hand, bent down and dragged the bucket full of water to the side of the big basin, and held the edge of the bucket with both hands to drain the water. To pour into the basin. "This is also a kind of practice. As long as you work hard, you can quickly and easily reach the weight of two tons. Be patient, Leorio." He sat down on the stool, bent over and rubbed his clothes.

"Beating the enemy is actually trying to treat us as free labor?!" Leo Li complained, "How can there be a saying that you have to be a servant for a friend when you see a friend?"

"I've already made an agreement with Qi Ya. Qi Ya is going to apologize. After I open the door, I'm going to find Qi Ya in a dignified way!" serious face.

"Hey, hey, you can find that brat without opening the door, right? Didn't you see him before? Why don't you be upright if you don't open the door?"

"But only by following the rules can Qiya be taken away smoothly!" Xiaojie took it for granted.He put aside the special metal clothespin and shook his good arm.As long as he has a firm mind, he will be so stubborn that no one can do anything.Kurapika shook his head with a smile, shook off the water on his hands and wrung out the drenched clothes: "Well, what Xiaojie said makes sense. Beating up enemies is indeed different from our world, as long as you follow the rules here Only the rules will be accepted. Not to mention—” He stood up and lifted the stool easily with one hand, “Look, the stool that couldn’t be moved at all at first can now be moved easily. This It shows that the special training is still effective, and it won’t be too long before we work together to open the door.”

With a face full of "I can't do anything about you", Leorio turned around and carried the bucket to continue fetching water. He was wearing a vest made of the same high-density metal, and this vest and The leggings are also on Gon and Kurapika.The potential continued to be stimulated bit by bit under this kind of load, and the water was successfully lifted out for the second time alone.At this time, he suddenly heard the sound of leaves and branches rubbing against each other. While turning his head suddenly, Xiaojie and Kurapika also clearly sensed the approach of a stranger.

A boy came out from the shadow of the woods on the side.He was on one side of the open field, and the luxuriant trees spread their umbrellas of missing light above his head.When Xiaojie, who had the most sensitive senses, noticed him, he was pushing aside the tree branches that covered him with one hand, and walked out of the shadow with the other hand idly in his trousers pocket. With a bright color, this strange boy tilted his head slightly, looking at Xiaojie and his party like a lake that is frozen but the light is spreading from the ice.

There was no expression on the visitor's face, but this expressionless expression was different from the expressionless expression of Kiya's elder brother that Kurapika and Leorio had seen.This kind of emptiness is more like a chilling emptiness than a chilly wind blowing.

Xiaojie tilted his head and asked, "Who are you? Qi Ya's family?"

"Hey, how can you be sure that he is Qiya's family, what if he is their housekeeper?" Leo Li lowered his voice, "This is the foot of the mountain to beat the enemy, right? Didn't Uncle Jiebu Rong also say to beat him?" Is it impossible for the owner of the enemy guest to come to this area?"

Xiaojie didn't reply, just stared at the boy.

"Miji · Beat the enemy." The visitor stretched out a hand a little stiffly, but quickly retracted it into the pocket of his trousers.There was still no expression on his face, and his expression remained unchanged as if frozen, but Xiaojie could feel his unnaturalness and embarrassment.The boy's hands in his trouser pockets pulled the fabric around the pockets into subtle overlapping lines, and he turned his head to avoid Xiaojie's direct gaze, "You guys are the friends that Qiya said, right?"

This time, Leori who hesitated and Kurapika who was still observing the situation confirmed the boy's identity.Leorio was the first to move, he leaned his upper body, and approached Miji casually: "Hey, let me tell you, you are not here to spread Brother Chiya's bastard theory that 'killers can't have friends' Right? I’m just going to let it go here, I’ve long since disliked your family that treats people like puppets at will—we’re Qi Ya’s friends, what’s wrong? Don’t accept it?”

"Leori—" Kurapika took a few steps closer and grabbed Leori who was spitting and aggrieved, and said in a low voice, "Don't be impulsive."

Mi Ji took a few steps back to widen the distance between him and Leori, he frowned, but the aura around him was still peaceful and without any danger.He swept across the faces of Leorio, Kurapika, and Jay one by one with such a flat gaze, as if confirming something.

"Hey, why are you nervous?"

Xiaojie asked suddenly.This sudden question soon received Leorio's inexplicable eyes, and Xiaojie looked at Mi Chi firmly, his eyes were clear and clean.

"You are Xiaojie." Mi Ji said slowly in a confirming tone, his eyes wandering over the people in front of him like a wind with ice, "You are Leori, you are Kurapika—that's right Go." He pursed his lips, "Qi Ya told me about you."

"Where is Qiya now?" Xiaojie asked.

"In the torture chamber. So he can't come out now."

Leorio scratched his hair anxiously: "Then what? You are Qi Ya's second brother? What are you doing here? Demonstration?"

"I'm going to beat the enemy to receive my...friend." Mi Ji answered this sentence very quickly, he almost subconsciously refuted Leorio's words, "I just stopped by to see Qi Ya's friends. Qi Ya is He came back because of me, and he is waiting for you."

Xiaojie said: "I know, I will definitely go to find Qi Ya."

Mi Chi seemed to want to say something, but he paused for a few seconds before turning around and retreating into the shadow of the woods.Almost in the next moment, Xiaojie couldn't feel his breath anymore.

Leorio was still at a loss: "What is he planning to do when he suddenly appears?!"

Kurapika: "He was in a hurry when he left...it's weird. I'll follow and have a look."

Xiaojie: "So I said he is nervous. You don't have to follow Kurapika, because he is really nervous. He really just came to see us, so we have to relax and work hard on special training Just go find Qi Ya!"

Leorio: "Where did you find out? I think this guy is definitely here to demonstrate!"

Kurapika looked in the direction where Miki disappeared, shook his head and patted Leorio's shoulder.Xiaojie had already continued to try to lift heavier things with one hand, and Kurapika went back to wring out the laundry. After drying the laundry, they were going to split the firewood with a heavier axe.Judging from the attitude of the second son who came to beat the enemy, not all family members objected to Qi Ya making friends, and all they can help Xiaojie now is to improve his own strength.

It happened to be exactly three o'clock in the afternoon when Mi Ji arrived at the small town at the foot of Kukulu Mountain.He has always been very confident in his itinerary arrangements. Excluding the time wasted on his younger brother and companions, the traffic in the town is enough for him to reach his destination at three o'clock.The place I agreed with the knight was the coffee shop where I met the new fan girl. When I opened the door and walked in, Mi Ji subconsciously touched the place where my heart was.

...It seems that the heart is beating a little fast.

He nodded expressionlessly to the bowing maid dressed as a waitress, walked around the wooden partition surrounded by the aroma of coffee and decorated with flowers, plants and leaves made of plastic and silk, and walked deep into the coffee shop.

A blond young man was sitting by the window.He propped his chin with one hand and looked out of the window. On the glass table in front of him was a cup of coffee that was no longer steaming and looked cold.Mi Chi stopped outside the reflection range of the glass, he turned his head and looked at the clock hanging on the wall of the coffee shop, it was five past three.He could almost hear the pulse beating in his blood. This time, he was more nervous than when he met the new girl or his brother's best friend. He simply didn't know the reason for this inexplicable emotion.It may be a strange feeling similar to being close to home. After all, Xia Ke is the first gay friend he met, ah, yes, and Fei Tan.

When thoughts piled up in his head in a mess, the blond young man sitting in front of him had already turned his head.

His eyes and the other's eyes simply touched together.It was at this moment that the man suddenly laughed.

The afternoon sun was flooding in full bloom, hitting the young man's blond hair brilliantly through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows.The young man has a baby face that is different from Mi Ji's imagination, but the smile on this seemingly immature face is exactly the same as what Mi Ji imagined in his mind.The moment he squinted his eyes, the funny tension quickly ebbed.

"Knight?"

The baby-faced youth in front of him smiled and waved.

"Yo, Zhiyan, long time no see."
