Chapter 390 Looking for parents
Chapter 390 Looking for parents
The confrontation will start on Sunday.
The competitions proposed by Garcia and other civilian teachers were more like revenge. In each competition, students who were forced to participate had to play against at least three second-grade teams.
The "Send You Home" team was scheduled to play the last game.
Huett asked Garcia how all the teams were ranked, and Garcia said that they were ranked according to the severity of the injuries of the civilian teachers who participated in the creation of the war. The more serious the injuries suffered by the instructors, the earlier the team will go on the field.
The ones that need to appear on this Sunday are "White Enamel", "Peace Dove" and "Abersge First".
Irene was a little worried that the "Peace Dove" would not be able to do it, because the entire team was not aggressive except Sophie. But Nolvaya said not to worry.
Joann Calholm, the captain of the "Peace Dove", was able to join the "Storm" without hesitation in Carone, and team member Montero Gordon took the initiative to participate in the changes of Titag.
If peace came only through unconventional means, neither Joan nor Sophie would hesitate.
So "Send You Home" is unexpectedly free this month.
Fiana returned to the Rose Mansion after finishing the magic circle course. Garcia still remembered what Fiana said yesterday. He followed Fiana silently and sent his resume to Fiana through the communicator.
Fiana looked at Garcia, who was sitting in the magic circle as quietly as a transparent person, and it was hard for her to have any expectations of him.
Zhu Xi doesn't like people like this.
Fiana thought for a moment and spoke calmly.
"Teacher Garcia, I have a lot of things to do and can't take care of you for now. You can move around freely on the first floor. If you are hungry, go find Ochifu. My uncle Ha Zi may go to the first floor to chat with you. If you find it troublesome, you can ask him to come to me."
Garcia nodded, but was a little apprehensive about the unknown. The expression on his face was too easy to guess. Fiana watched him at a loss quietly, and finally asked him.
"What do you think is confusing you? Or are you afraid of me or my home?"
Garcia didn't look at Fiana, he lowered his eyes, a completely humble and submissive attitude. He had memorized what Fiana told him yesterday, it was difficult for him to open up, but he tried to be obedient.
"...Don't I need to help you with some work?"
Garcia asked this, hoping to get some certain and meaningful work. He was not good at chatting, he did not know the "Uncle Hazi" mentioned by Fiana, nor did he know who "Ochifu" was.
In an unfamiliar environment, he habitually wants to rely on people he knows.
Fiana said calmly.
"I don't need you to do anything for now."
Garcia uttered an "oh". He had dressed up specially today, and tied up his long black hair tightly, revealing his entire face. Without any cover, all his expressions would be revealed, making him feel as if he was naked.
The magic circle was running, and the golden light appeared and disappeared from time to time.
Fiana stared at Garcia.
"Mr. Garcia, is there anything you like?"
Garcia was stunned for a moment, then shook his head blankly.
"Then find something in Rose Mansion that you will like for a long time."
Fiana stopped talking after saying this. Sometimes she felt that Garcia was not a real person - Garcia had no life of his own, his reactions were slow, and when he encountered any action with potential words, he would think for a long time and then pretend that he understood.
Fiana felt that Garcia was not as good as Bu Dan. Garcia's mind was still stuck in the past. He closed himself off and nothing new could enter his inner world. He seemed to be the same as everyone else in this world, but in fact he was just learning to pretend to be normal.
With chaotic thoughts dominating an empty shell, Garcia retreated into his safe zone and never came out since a certain injury.
Fiana didn't expect Garcia to take on the world in a short period of time, but she hoped that Garcia would have something to do while hiding.
"…Mr. Jean Luo, I want to know who Ochifu is."
Garcia spoke in a low voice. He was a little tense.
Fiana looked at the communicator without looking up.
"Ochef is my chef. His hair is very black because he dyed it three days ago. His beard is very white and he often braids it. You should be able to see him easily because he is doing something very disturbing with Hazi right now."
Fiana almost sighed at the end.
Ha Zi is really writing "Fiana Observation Diary". Ha Zi said he wants to write it down and publish it, just like he once thought.
Ochef is very supportive. Ochef shares her past with Hazi - her very complicated past.
Ha Zi often interrupted Ochef's story because of uncontrollable tears, and then ran to the second floor and said "I'm sorry" many times outside her door. Ha Zi was annoyed by his own collapse, and he felt that he should have cheered up earlier.
Fiana never blamed Hazi. She, Hazi, and Ochiev were all victims.
But they are also winners.
"…Are Ochef also your family members?"
Garcia sensed from Fiana's tone the familiarity from his family that he wanted most. He asked involuntarily, with deep envy surging in his dark green eyes.
He didn't even need Fiana to answer. He already knew the answer.
He was able to immediately mobilize all his senses to analyze the issues that mattered to him most, but at the same time he was sensitively aware of how far he was from having such a sense.
Garcia stopped talking.
He followed Fiana into the Rose Mansion and was shocked by the endless rose bushes. The rich fragrance smelled like money, and the luxurious decorations made Garcia walk carefully, but when he entered the castle, he unexpectedly found that there was a warmth of home here.
The first thing Garcia saw after entering the castle was a framed note. He thought it was some kind of abstract art, but when he got closer, he was confused.
"Student Jean Luo, what is this?"
Garcia pointed at the framed note and asked Fiana seriously.
Fiana knew Garcia would see the note. It would be the first thing anyone who entered her house saw. It was her own selfish desire.
"The pieces of life that make me feel happy."
Fiana answered calmly and prepared to go upstairs to handle government affairs.
Fiana told Garcia to just wander around and come back to her if he had any problems.
Garcia nodded and watched Fiana disappear on the stairs. He felt awkward in a stranger's house, and he didn't know what to do best - he sat on the sofa in the living room, trying not to look like an uninvited guest.
Garcia waited for the possible appearance of "Ochif" and "Hazi", but time passed by minute by minute and the castle remained quiet.
Garcia moved from one end of the sofa to the other. He saw a workbook with "Duna Zhute Yalinxiu" written on it. On the coffee table were half-eaten snacks and some scattered wrapping papers. On the small table were piles of spare parts, covered with used newspapers, with the recruitment information on them circled with colored pens.
There is a floor-to-ceiling mirror on the far left of the living room, with a thick coat hanging on the mirror.
Garcia knew that there were many people living here. Was it Zhu and her teammates?
Garcia found the answer at the long dining table.
It's like a banquet table with a lot of food on it, and it looks a bit crowded even when no one is eating.
There were a comb with a few long gray hairs tangled around it, a postcard with Elliott's name printed on it, a "Remiaz Royal Family Special Paper" with only a few letters written on it, a route map to the work location, a male puppet that looked a bit like Irene but had been damaged, and a broken flower vine...
It’s the “Send You Home” team.
They truly live here. Every place has traces of their lives. This is their home.
So strange.
Garcia felt strange and cozy, and he didn't know where to start. He finally stood firmly near the door, as if that was his home.
Just as Garcia felt he was getting used to it, the door was suddenly pushed open.
The Duke of Philip came out of the room with a frown on his brow, and stood on the second floor, looking at the two people who walked in with their heads lowered and Garcia who was standing at the door like a guard.
She knocked on the railing of the second-floor staircase.
"Everyone come up."
……
Fiana was handling official business, but she found two very strange emails in her communicator.
One was from Mehdi College and one was from the Herbal College in the northern continent.
The content of these two emails is quite consistent, both of which talk about how uncooperative the student is in the college. The college management believes that there may be some special circumstances in the student's family, so they asked the guardian to come to the college to explain.
As a guardian, Fiana looked at the two names "Shaqi Fiana" and "Sera" in the email, which were very familiar to her, and closed her eyes silently.
Should we say they are mother and daughter indeed? They were even asked to find a guardian at the same time.
……
"Your Excellency the Duke, I did not violate the school rules."
Sera is not convinced by the academy's evaluation of her, she thinks the academy is making a big deal out of nothing. Shaqi also agrees.
"Lady Fiana, I'm studying hard in the academy and I don't have any conflicts with anyone. Mehdi shouldn't have disturbed you. They are overreacting!"
Shaqi took out her communicator.
"Look, Lady Fiana, I study hard every time I attend class. I don't talk to anyone, and I consolidate my new knowledge after class~"
"Saki."
Fiana held the communicator with a serious look on her face.
"Mehdi also formed a team to complete the competition and get credits since the second grade, but you applied to the school not to participate in the second grade, right?"
Shaqi nodded, not feeling anything was wrong.
"That's a waste of time, Lady Fiana. I want to learn as much as possible and then come back to do a lot for Philip and you. This is the purpose of my going to Mehdi Academy."
"But that's not why I asked you to go to Mehndi. Shaqi, did you make friends in Mehndi?"
Shaqi pursed her lips.
"I don't need friends. That's a waste of time, and I don't have that much time to waste."
“Are you happy in Mehndi?”
"Lady Fiana, it's not important. As long as I learn knowledge that can help you solve problems, happiness or pain is not important. Just like you went to Abersgar to learn how to build a magic circle for us..."
"Saki."
Fiana looked into Shaqi's round eyes and spoke calmly.
"I need you to see the world. I need you to talk to people who aren't Philippi. I need you to enjoy your life."
Shaqi shook her head, she disagreed.
"Lady Fiana, this is too selfish. You signed an unequal treaty so that we can choose the academy we like to attend classes. I can't..."
"You can. Saki Fiana, I order you to participate in all activities that interest you. I want to see your teammates next semester. You must do everything that the Mehndi students do."
"…That's very selfish."
"I'm asking you to be selfish."
Shaqi bit her lip.
"What's the point? I don't care if I have friends or not, I don't care what others think! How can I enjoy life like an ordinary mehndi student-"
“There is no reason not to. Is the unequal treaty still not enough for you to enjoy your life as a student of Mehdi? Then all the concessions I made are meaningless. Even if you are in Mehdi, you are still living in Philippi.
I support you in moving on to the wider world. I don’t need you to look back.”
Shaqi was stunned. "No need for you to turn back" was like an expulsion. She still didn't understand why she had to integrate into Mehdi, but she was more afraid that Fiana would be disappointed in her.
Shaqi hurriedly took out the communicator.
"I...I'm going to the class party today!"
Shaqi now only felt that the class party started too late, and she could not prove that she could live like those Mehndi students at any time - Shaqi chose to take a walk in Mehndi College to prove that she was enjoying life.
After Shaqi left in a hurry, Sera already knew where the problem lay.
"I don't think diligence needs to be corrected. Shaqi is still a child, but sir, I am no longer one. You saved Shaqi and me, and I want to finish my studies as soon as possible and come back to repay you."
"Sera, do you still want to live your second life for me?"
Fiana said calmly.
These words stabbed Sera's heart like a knife. She took a quick breath and continued to struggle.
"I will work hard with Shaqi's contribution..."
“Sera, you are you, and Shaqi is Shaqi. Even if you are Shaqi’s mother, you should not make decisions for Shaqi.
Sera, live the life you want."
……
After Sera left, Garcia still stood straight. His presence was so low that neither Shaqi nor Sera asked who he was and naturally ignored him.
After Fiana replied to the two emails, she saw Garcia looking thoughtful.
She asked out loud.
"What are you thinking?"
Garcia shuddered when he heard this, then lowered his head after coming to his senses.
"I'm thinking... I understand what they're saying."
"Forget your understanding now. Garcia, the ultimate result of living for others is to lose yourself, just as you are now."
Fiana turned off the communicator and looked at Garcia, who had nothing in his hands.
"Did you find something you liked?"
