Chapter 26 Pinocchio of the Little Fox Girl
When Malone returned to White Oak Street, there was only a large red sunset left in the sky.
"At least, tomorrow will still be a sunny day."
Malone, who was muttering like this, rang the doorbell of Sheriff Bernard's villa.
While waiting for the door to open, Malone was thinking about how to be like Sheriff Bernard, explaining the problem of swaying outside all day today.
Soon, the door was opened and he saw a puppet doll in a white gauze princess dress... the little fox girl Aimi.
When the door was opened, the little fox girl obviously wanted to pounce forward, but after finding out that the person who rang the doorbell was Ma Long, she twisted her slender waist flexibly and stopped the pounce forward.
Although I was still dizzy because I told the story for a day, Malone could still remember her clearly, and she definitely did not have the aura of an uncle who made the little loli take the initiative to kill her.
So, Ma Long smiled at the little fox girl and asked, "Uncle Bernard, haven't come back yet?"
It would be fine if Ma Long asked this, and the little fox girl pouted her mouth immediately. She swept Ma Long with absolutely angry eyes, and then focused her head.
Has murderous intent!
Ma Long immediately understood that the little fox girl was definitely very resentful about his late return, which was not a good phenomenon...
However, before Ma Long could explain, the little fox girl who was still pouting dissatisfiedly reached out to pull Ma Long's cuffs and pulled Ma Long straight into the restaurant.
In the restaurant, there were four wooden dining plates. Except for one of them that was almost empty, the other three dining plates were still full of food that had long been empty.
"Ami, why haven't you eaten yet? This is not possible. Children have to eat on time to grow up healthily, otherwise they will become ugly when they grow up!"
Ma Long showed a look of surprise. He unconsciously used the language he used to coax children in the children's welfare home.
Even if you guess, Ma Long could guess that the plate that was almost empty was definitely eaten by his little cousin An Wei.
The fluffy sapphire blue fox tail shook, and the little fox girl Ami pouted and threw Ma Long with a look of "Because I'm waiting for you!"
Then, the little fox girl put down the princess skirt puppet doll in her arms, picked up a plate with cold food, and headed towards the kitchen.
After a while, the little fox girl wearing a pink apron put the hot food back on the dining table.
Seeing that the little fox girl did not mean to heat the second plate of food, but just silently signaled herself to eat, Ma Long asked, "Amy, aren't you going to wait for Uncle Bernard to come back before eating together? Can't you eat with me?"
The little fox girl nodded vigorously, her attitude was firm and there was no room for relief.
Ma Long smiled bitterly. Although he was indeed very hungry now, he couldn't eat alone when the little fox girl Ami, who made delicious food for him, was still hungry.
"Okay, let's wait together."
After saying that, Ma Long turned around and walked towards the living room.
"Don't be stunned, Ami, hurry up and follow me! I guess it's a good idea to listen to your brother Ma Long before Uncle Bernard comes back, telling stories to pass the time!"
Ma Long, who had not looked back, said while walking, in an undeniable tone. He looked at Ma Long's back in a daze. In the sapphire blue eyes of the little fox girl Aimee, the original angry expressions gradually disappeared, replaced by a look of joy.
Then, the little fox girl's fluffy tail swayed happily, and she caught up with Ma Long with light steps, and then without hesitation, stuffed her boneless little hand into Ma Long's warm big hand.
The soft little hands that tightly held his fingers finally made Ma Long turn his head in surprise. He saw Aimi's blue talking jewel eyes looking up at him, full of happiness and trust.
Why--?!
I just got a little cool?
Ma Long had no idea why he had just said such cool words that had such great effect.
And the empty stomach caused by the lack of calories and glucose made Ma Long too lazy to think about it anymore... Forget it, at least this is a good thing, isn't it?
"Xiao Anwei, my cousin is back! My cousin is going to tell a story, why don't you come out quickly?"
Ma Long, who was still walking to the living room, shouted at the top of his throat, sat on the comfortable sofa, and then pretended to be pitiful and said to the little fox girl who followed him, "Miss Amy, can you come and serve three cups of fragrant milk and coffee?"
Ma Long's pitiful look made the little fox girl giggle, and even her beautiful blue eyes turned into two beautiful crescent moons. She nodded her head hard again.
...
"Ah! Saved-"
He didn't care about the hotness, and drank the delicious milk and coffee dry, and Ma Long showed an extremely comfortable look.
Then, without the need for the little fox girl with a smile on her face and the little Anwei urging her face full of expectations, Ma Long opened his mouth and told a fairy tale: "A long time, a long time ago, there was a piece of wood like this. It was not as expensive wood, just the ordinary wood that was thrown into the stove and fireplace for heating. One day, this piece of wood was placed in an old carpenter's shop. The old carpenter's name was Antonio, but people called him Master Cherry..."
There is no doubt that the story told by Malone is the Disney movie version of "Pinocchio".
It was probably because of the third time that Ma Long told the story, under the passionate and emotional story of his fox girl Aimi and Xiao Anwei, the little fox girl, was soon immersed in the world of fairy tales. As the story went ups and downs, he suddenly laughed and exclaimed—
In Ma Long's story, the sky darkened little by little. When it was dark, it was almost impossible for Ma Long to see the expression of the little fox girl sitting beside him. Sheriff Bernard's signature doorbell and loud shouting finally came into Ma Long's ears.
"Okay, the story time is paused! An Wei will light the air lamp, and Amy and I will go to welcome our Sheriff's Triumph."
Ma Long stood up, clapped his palms and woke up the little fox girl and Xiaoshoutai who were fascinated by listening to the story, and quickly assigned the task.
"Okay cousin!"
Xiao Anwei performed Ma Long's mission without hesitation.
The little fox girl Aimi silently stuffed her soft little hand into Ma Long's palm again.
Ma Long just thought that the little fox girl was afraid of the darkness, so he led the little fox girl to the door of the villa without thinking too much.
When she opened the door, Sheriff Bernard stood outside the door. The difference from the early morning was that his formerly straight sheriff's uniform had turned into a beggar's outfit.
"Ah, sorry, children, there was something wrong today. I had to delay some time because I arrested a wandering old warrior who came from other cities and dared to openly rob in my jurisdiction."
Under the angry eyes of the little fox girl Ami, Sheriff Bernard explained hurriedly. While he spoke, he reached out and slapped the sheriff's uniform that had become a beggar, and then said in a tone of fear: "Fortunately, that old guy is not only hungry, but also has been shot in his knee..."
The speaker has no intention, and the listener has his heart.
After listening to Sheriff Bernard's explanation for his late return, Malone's eyes, which were originally starving because of hunger, lit up.
Ma Long felt that he seemed to have found the key figure who implemented the win-win plan.
"Uncle Bernard, are you sure? That's a wandering old warrior who just came from other cities?!"
