Afterwards, the two women also gave satisfactory comments.

In the Cage: 12. Falling from the Sky

Solitaire took Aite out.

After living there for a few days, Aite sorted out the things he lacked, communicated with Solitaire, and went to replenish them.

Nagasaki Kiyoshi was a little worried at first and doubted their "purchasing" method, until he saw Aite taking the money, he relaxed.

The former storage room was piled with many coins, gold and silver jewelry and other valuables.

Indeed, zero-yuan purchases are unstable and can easily be exposed over time.

Solitude will not actively attack humans until it is certain that they have not been exposed and there is no desire to study them.

I watched them disappear under the clear sky.

Although they knew that the house was filled with various surveillance magics, Nagasaki Kiyoshi and Toyokawa Shoko still relaxed a lot after Solitaire left.

Aite did not bring her daughter with her. A woman acting alone is already conspicuous, and bringing a child with her would make her appear even weaker.

As we all know, when parents are not at home, children become toys of older children.

Shoko Toyokawa happily holds the baby.

I actually feel happy taking care of children.

Soon the child taught her a lesson. For some reason, he started crying. No matter how the eldest lady coaxed him or forced a smile to please him, the child just kept on crying.

I don’t know if it’s because I can’t bear to leave my mother, or if I want to take advantage of the bad guy’s absence to pour out the tears that I haven’t dared to cry for this period of time.

"Oh, don't cry... I will do whatever I can, baby?"

"Wu ...

"If you keep crying like this, I—"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Super loud.

After cleaning the house, Nagasaki Kiyoshi came over and gave some advice:

"Is the holding position uncomfortable? How about letting me try it?"

"Qing, I am a woman after all. Children tend to like older sisters more, right?"

"Hard to say."

The eldest lady glanced down.

Although there is a size difference between me and the mother of the child, it is still more comfortable than men, right?

While she was in a daze, Nagasaki Kiyoshi took the child.

Do not cry.

"Why is this happening?"

Shoko Toyokawa said she couldn't accept it.

Nagasaki Kiyoshi held the milk-smelling baby in his arms, carefully adjusted the position, supported her legs, and rocked her in his arms.

"Xiangzi, your voice is too loud, and why do you keep using honorifics?"

He doesn't really like honorifics, and feels they're not something that would be used between friends.

"I understand the stockings."

"Forget it, just be as you please. There's no need to force it."

Nagasaki Kiyoshi thought about the environment she lived in and understood that Xiangzi had been marinated by honorifics (sad).

For others, honorifics are tools that are only used at specific times, but for her, they may cover more than 80% of her life.

Respect and understanding.

He could still tolerate this little problem, even though it was a little awkward and he felt that she was being sarcastic sometimes.

Ms. Toyokawa thanked her teammates for their understanding and moved closer to observe the child smiling with narrowed eyes.

The blue hair and the scent of soap on her body wafted towards me, and it was really close.

"Please, please teach me how to cheer this kid up!"

She cared a lot about Mrs. Ate, who was overflowing with maternal love. It wasn't that she really treated her as her mother, but she felt that Mrs. Ate was very strong and had a hard time raising a child alone.

I want to become friends with each other and communicate and encourage each other.

Children are an important topic.

Finally, she really hadn't had much contact with children, so it was very novel for her.

"I don't know. I've never taken care of a child before. Maybe it's the way you hug me? You should hold me tightly like this to give the child a sense of security. Try it again?"

He carefully lifted the child over, and Xiangzi took it and tried to adjust his movements like him.

The child's expression adjusted and began to frown.

Before switching to howling mode, Nagasaki Kiyoshi silently took it back.

"Maybe he's hungry?"

The young lady looked up, looked around at the scenery, pretended nothing had happened, and tried to restore her dignity.

Nagasaki Qing shook his head. "I just fed her less than half an hour ago. Let me comfort her for a while... Oh, Aite put the food in her room. Find something to cover it. Be careful not to let in dust."

“Hmm…Oh!”

Xiangzi spent a while thinking about what the food was. After he understood, he nodded and went. He felt that Nagasaki Qing was a meticulous person.

In the room, filled with frankincense and an indescribable scent of a mature woman, the milk on the table was still warm.

However, when feeding it to your child, you still need to heat the bowl in hot water.

The blue-haired lady picked it up and stared at it in a trance.

She also grew up drinking this when she was a child.

What will it taste like?

She suddenly thought of this question and immediately shook her head in panic, putting the idea aside and feeling ashamed of having such thoughts.

How old are you and still want to act like a baby?

She came out with milk in her hand, and Nagasaki Qing was holding the child and looking at the fish caught yesterday.

Some of them wandered around in Solitaire's specimen tanks, and those that could not survive were frozen into ice cubes to preserve their freshness.

The new things made the children scream.

Hearing the footsteps, Nagasaki Qing didn't turn around and teased, "It's been a while, are you drinking secretly?"

"I didn't lose my stockings."

"..."

Something is wrong.

Nagasaki Kiyoshi told himself not to think too much about it.

"I need to clean up the kitchen, but I'm busy right now. Can you come and help me?"

As they talked, they began to exchange information skillfully using cards.

Information about the demons and magic that can be learned.

Xiangzi's skills haven't appeared yet, but it's obvious that her understanding is better.

Or……

Is it because of [Adaptive Evolution] that he can accept the magic of the demons?

……

Aite saw the human town again, but there was no sense of familiarity.

Because the demon in human skin was walking beside him.

Solitaire walked down the road with her horns gone.

"Don't worry. Condensing magic power is easy for us (the demons). At least for a short period of time, it will be fine. We can just cover up the horns with magic."

The demon "girl", referred to as the witch, she said, raising her hand and gently fiddling with the things in front of her.

Even in the eyes of the demons, her magical aura was suppressed around her body, and the extent of its dissipation was probably only that of an ordinary magician.

If too much energy escapes, it will easily reveal the aura of the demons; if too little energy escapes, it will easily attract those who are not careful enough.

She really was trying to stay out of trouble.

Now that she has two very interesting humans in the house, others are less attractive to her.

Even if it is used as material to verify the conclusion, now is not the time to use it.

She is a researcher who focuses on efficiency.

Just be a little "wronged", it's just for a while anyway.

In a town without a large barrier against demons, her disguise is basically unrecognizable. She has no demonic aura and no horns. Is she a demon?

Only a sufficiently skilled magician could detect the abnormality in her magic, but that kind of abnormality would not normally appear in such a small place.

If there is...

That's really bad luck, the magician, and this settlement - unless the magician is called Celia or Minus.

Solitaire walked on the road very relaxedly, talking with Aite.

"As a human being, do you have any guesses about their origins?"

Aite shook his head and said softly:

"I'm sorry, I don't know. I can only confirm that they are not nobles from the southern countries, nor are they from the Empire. Their language does not have any characteristics of the unified Imperial language. They are simply like barbarians, or they fell from the sky."

"Falling from the sky..."

……

In a Cage: 13. Respect the fate of others

About a thousand years ago, there was a huge empire on this continent. Outside the empire, there were basically uncivilized places with primitive and chaotic languages ​​and customs.

Later, an individual named the Demon King was born among the demons. He dominated the demons with absolute force. In order to realize his wish, he started a protracted war with humans.

The unified empire was split into three parts: the orthodox empire and kingdoms in the north, the central kingdom and kingdoms in the center, and the kingdoms in the south that were caught in endless infighting.

People from other places...are probably all dead.

But after all, it was divided from the same country, so to this day, the language and writing of the unified empire period are still quite versatile.

This also makes Nagasaki Kiyoshi and Toyokawa Shoko look extremely unusual.

"Haha, who knows."

It certainly couldn't be a savage, Solitaire chewed over the words "fell from the sky", trying hard to suppress her overflowing curiosity.

Only this level of abnormality could satisfy her.

What kind of joy would she feel when all these mysteries were solved? Just thinking about it made her heart beat faster.

The patience now is all for the happiness then.

Fortunately, the demons are not human.

For several years, even decades, it did not grow to the point of being unbearable.

You can look forward to it.

I can't help but think of "Curiosity kills the cat", a human proverb that became popular at some point in time.
