"Ah," Alice walked down the street with her shoulders down and said dejectedly: "I missed it with the customer. I am indeed an unqualified maid..."

I don’t know whether it is to increase the difficulty of the enemy attack, to promote commercial prosperity, or some other reason, the mountain roads in this city are not the kind that leads directly to the academy. Instead, every time I climb to a large staircase with a street on one ring, I have to walk along the street for a period of time to discover the staircase leading to the next big staircase...

However, this approach is only for those outsiders or those who are not familiar with the terrain.

There are various emergency ladders or walkways that can quickly get up and down in many alleys. In order to get to the customer as soon as possible to complete the dean's instructions, Alice took advantage of the advantages of her frequent purchases, so she was very familiar with the terrain and rushed to the foot of the mountain as quickly as possible from these shortcuts.

As a result, when she finally arrived, she was told by the mage who was left on the magic boat that Mrs. Sharon and her group had left.

"Why does little Alice feel very uninspired?" As the girl was walking on the street in frustration thinking about what to do next, the aunt in the small shop she often visited on the street greeted her: "There are new fried meatloaf here, take a few to eat."

"Hey? But I didn't bring any money..." Alice said awkwardly.

"It's okay, remember to continue patronizing our shop more in the future." The aunt smiled gently: "And we don't want to see Little Alice with a bitter face, hurry up and cheer up!"

"Well, thank you aunt." Seeing the concerned faces of people in the shops around, Alice felt warm and smiled involuntarily. She took the paper bag handed over by the aunt, bowed to them, and cheered up and ran towards the next step.

Since I missed it with the guests at the beginning, wouldn’t it be enough to just go outside the college to wait for them to come?

Although it is a little rude, it is much better than letting guests wait for a long time.

At least that's what Alice thinks.

However, after running up a few big steps, she stopped.

On the street not far from her, a little girl in a trumpet mage robe and with silver hair was looking around in distress.

Although Alice dared not say that she recognized all the students in the academy, she could not have no impression of such a conspicuous little guy. In other words, the other party is definitely not a student of the academy.

So, was it a little girl who got separated from her or accidentally got lost?

Obviously, I should not meddle in other people's business now. Before the guests arrive outside the academy, they must wait there one step earlier.

but……

Looking at the poor little silver-haired girl who looked only ** years old, Alice bit her lip, and then walked up without any confusion as if she had decided something.

"Little sister, are you lost?" she said to the little girl who was alone.

However, the silver-haired little girl did not answer, but took a step back like a kitten afraid of death, showing extremely alert eyes.

Alice scratched her cheek with a wry smile, then suddenly remembered that she was holding a paper bag in her hand.

"Don't be afraid, my elder sister invites you to fried meat cakes~" So she opened the paper bag and seduced the little girl with the aroma of meat that spread out inside.

"Sivie said...you can't eat strangers' things." The little girl stared at Alice with an expressionless face, but her secret spitting action could not hide it from Alice's eyes.

Huhuhu~ Aunt Miya’s fried meat cakes are delicious, let go of your guard!

Alice added in a human trafficker-like tone deep inside without consciously, while continuing to maintain a kind smile, "Then my name is Alice, Alice Bennings, what about you?"

"Teo Scanji." The little girl seemed to relax her guard slightly because of the wonderful scent of the fried meatloaf and replied in a low voice.

"Well, we are not strangers in this way, right? "Alice looked at the little girl's cute look of swallowing her saliva, and smiled and handed the paper bag to Tio.

Tio hesitated for a moment, and finally took the paper bag.

But she didn't rush to eat the fried meatloaf, but asked Alice strangely, "Why?"

Although Teo's words sounded ignorant at first glance, Alice understood what she meant - why did she come over to talk to her.

While lamenting that the children's vigilance has become increasingly high recently, Alice also said embarrassedly: "Because you feel very distressed here alone... I think there is no reason to help others, right?"

Tio stared at Alice's face for a while, and when the latter was a little uncomfortable, she lowered her head and ate the fried meatloaf.

"tasty."

"Right, right~" Although Tio's voice was very slight, so light that it would be ignored if you were not careful, Alice still caught it carefully, and her smile became brighter: "Aunt Miya's craftsmanship is definitely trustworthy~"

Tio chewed a small bite of the fried meatloaf, then looked up at Alice, and then whispered: "I'm separated from Sivie."

Xiwei? This child just mentioned this name, it should be her guardian... Well, it sounds like a male name, and my father won't call him by his name directly. So it's the elder brother? No, I always feel that Teo's attitude is a bit strange if he says it's the elder brother...

Alice's mind seemed unable to sort out too complicated information, and she quickly became a little dizzy.

So she simply decided to solve the problem in a more direct way.

"Anyway, let's look for Sivi together." She touched Teo's little head: "You must want to see him too, right?"

The little girl nodded, then thought for a while, and continued, "And Alyssa."

A new name appeared, which should be the name of a girl.

In other words, is the target of a man and a woman this time?

"Well, I get it." Alice patted her bulging breasts and said to Teo with a confident look: "Don't worry, this is like my home, and you can definitely find Sivie and Alisa."

"...Well." The little girl finally nodded and stretched out a greasy hand to Alice.

Then two girls, one big and one small, found people along the streets.

"Teo!" Sivi hugged the little girl: "Where have you gone? I'm so worried!"

After all, he brought Tio out of Noege and made such a promise. If something happened to the little girl when she really came out, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.

While Alyssa looked at Teo with envious eyes, she kept saying, 'It's good to come back'.

"Sivie... I'm sorry." Teo apologized softly, then she seemed to think of something, and broke out from Sivie's arms, pointing to Alice who was standing aside and looking at them with a smile: "Alice helps me find you."

Xiwei looked up at the girl in a maid outfit. Although she didn't know the other party's identity, from what Teo said, she probably also made a lot of efforts.

So he also thanked him very simply: "Thank you so much for your help." He also planned to take out a few gold coins as a reward.

But Alice waved her hand in a hurry: "No need, I'm just helping according to my own wishes."

After saying that, the girl's face suddenly became a little ugly. She suddenly remembered that she still had some serious work to do.

"What's wrong?" Sivi asked strangely.

"Hug, sorry, I have something urgent to do, I have to leave!" Before Cevey could ask why, Alice ran away.

"The badge on that girl..." He didn't say anything from the beginning, but just stood not far away and looked at Xiwei and the others in his eyes, looking in the direction where Alice ran away, and said thoughtfully: "The pattern on it should be the emblem of Huoli's National Magic Academy, right?"

"That's right." Mrs. Sharon nodded: "It seems that we will soon see that good-hearted child."

"Then I'll thank you very much." Xiwei put the half-finished wallet back into the bronze storage box.

Then, with everyone, continue to walk towards the academy...
