Chapter 72 The Poem of the Seven Kingfishers (Thanks to the leader of 'Mrs. Shenqi Wants to Stick with Alice')

After work, she carried a dinner box in her hand.

After walking through the familiar corridor, Heshia returned home, changed into breathable and comfortable slippers, sat lightly on the sofa, and then bounced slightly.

First, she closed her eyes and lay down for a while, then she sat up and opened the dinner box in front of her. Inside was the T6-level set meal of vegetable codfish rice she bought on the way home from work.

Because she came back late, Heshia didn't want to spend time cooking, and occasionally she would buy ready-made dinner boxes.

The fried codfish pieces lay quietly in the white grid, with a little sauce underneath, exuding an attractive aroma. In the grid on the other side were cut and fried vegetable strips, including celery, carrots, and eggplant strips, colorful.

Sitting alone at the dining table, Heshia raised her legs slightly, stepped on the horizontal bar under the chair with a slightly relaxed look, and ate the still warm dinner with chopsticks.

Because there was no one else, the hall was particularly quiet. Only the dusty objects and corners in the house showed that a complete family had lived here before.

After eating, Heshia simply cleaned the table and returned to the sofa, then picked up her personal terminal to read.

Today is June 8th, and there are only four days until the party on the 12th. She looked at the calendar and moved her eyes to the bedroom. Suddenly, she remembered whether she should prepare something, such as buying two new clothes.

It has been a year since she last bought clothes. Although the remaining clothes can still be worn, it is a rare reunion with former classmates. Even though Heshia is not a person who cares about face, she doesn't want to make it so pitiful. After all, she has accumulated savings now.

She flipped to her personal wallet deposit and clicked to enter.

[Your deposit balance is: 35420.23 federal coins]

It is about 30,000 federal coins, most of which were earned when she followed the two seniors "Hua Le" and "Frous". She also got a share of it when she went to help other maids, but in general, it was not as much as these two.

After all, catering is the biggest part of "Glass Dream". Although there are other businesses, they are more scattered and not as concentrated as this.

Although 30,000 is not a large amount, looking at the money in the card, there is always a sense of security. Even if she loses her job immediately, she can still last for 2 years, the girl estimated in her heart.

Well, let's go shopping for clothes after work tomorrow.

Before, she went shopping with Lina and the others. In order to save money, she never bought anything. Now she can finally look at what she likes.

After making the decision, Heshia stretched and went to the bathroom to take a shower. It was already past 8 o'clock in the evening, and it was late.

————

The next day, Heshia continued to help Butis in the morning.

After feeding these little guys, she took out the venom one by one, and then sat at the table.

The white-scaled tree viper that usually liked Heshia swam over again today. It circled around Heshia's chair, looked up at her slender legs, hesitated for a while, and then did not wrap around her. Instead, it climbed up from the back of the chair and poked its head out from Heshia's shoulder.

"Ah..." The girl who was taking notes on the table and thinking about something was startled by the little guy who suddenly popped up beside her ear, and then she reacted.

"You are naughty again, you guy." She tapped the little snake on her shoulder with the pen in her hand, and then continued to write.

The notes recorded the recent situation of these poisonous creatures in the jungle. Most of them were normal, but some of them were different from usual. Some might be in estrus, and some were when they needed to shed their skin.

By the way, when do you shed your skin? Heshia turned her eyes to the little guy who was poking his head in her ear. Although he could not read, he was very interested in what she was writing.

Putting down the pen, Heshia lifted the small white-scaled snake with her hands, loosened the part that was wrapped around the back of the chair, and placed it on the table. Then she opened the refrigerated drawer on one side, took out a cooked quail egg, peeled off the shell, and fed it to the slightly cute little guy.

Biting the quail egg that was slightly smaller than its head, the small white-scaled snake slowly swallowed it, then coiled on the table and lay down quietly. It looked so comfortable that it was ready to take a nap here.

"I'll sleep after eating." The girl said in a low voice, jokingly.

By the way, the big spider that usually likes to stick to her didn't come today, and no one knows where it hid. In the past, when she was writing, the big spider always lay on the table, and she sometimes got used to knocking that guy with the pen when she paused.

After recording today's affairs, Heshia closed the notebook and began to think about what style of clothes to buy after work.

Her mother had a great influence on her clothes. In the past, her mother always took her two sisters to buy clothes. However, after going to high school, Themisia began to choose clothes by herself. Compared with the gentle oriental style that her mother liked, Themisia preferred rebellious Gothic style clothes.

The clock slowly turned, and it was afternoon. Today was still Heshia's trial operation, but compared with yesterday, there were fewer maids present today, because it was still working hours, and it was impossible for everyone to come. Only a few maids who had more free time came.

"Today I'm going to tell you the story of 'The Poem of the Seven Kingfishers.'"

Opening the bright green picture book, there are leaves covering the paper. These leaves are extremely green, and the colors are different. They seem to be placed in a mess under the shade of the tree, but they vaguely form the shape of seven birds.

"Seven sisters, seven different personalities, seven different fates, and finally ushered in the same ending..."

"The seven sisters, the fairies in the forest, the fairies among the flowers, are called 'nymphs'. After they encounter misfortunes one by one, they turn into seven mournful kingfishers, singing their sorrows and vows, and are bound to take revenge on the most powerful hero in the legend."

In the warm sunshine and flowers, the seven girls snuggled up to each other and slept. They grew up slowly, showing their own different styles, although like birds, they began to fly in their own directions.

"The white kite with wings as pure white as a painting..."

"The flame-feathered bird with orange-red feathers like fire..."

"The bone owl with a body as black as the night..." "The twig-hanging

bird with eyebrows and feathers as dark blue as ink..."

...

"In the end, the white wings were stained with blood, the flame feathers were burned out, the lacquer wings were torn, the dark eyebrows were disgraced... and the sad song sang to itself, circling the tree, and turned into poisonous thorns and fell off."

"The red and purple were entangled with the light blue, and the thorns eventually became cursed wounds, turning into goitered and weeping spears."

"The spear was like a dead branch and dead leaves hidden in the night, stabbing the great hero who was traveling on the journey, making his face as withered as a tree, and he fell down and sat down under the cliff, dying of thirst."

Compared with "The Girl with a Crown of Flowers" which is like real history, "The Poem of the Seven Kingfishers" is shrouded in a hazy and distant mythological color. Although it is sad and beautiful, it will not make people too sad. Perhaps this is the beauty of myths and fairy tales.

Closing the emerald picture book in her hand, the girl's voice gradually ended, and the changing scenery beside her slowly began to glow white, and finally turned into an unknown hill with a breeze blowing. The girl in a black and white dress sat under the mottled shade of the tree, and her eyes slowly opened.

"Great, although it's a bit sad, it still has a feeling of sadness without being sad." Belfinger began to applaud.

"This degree is just right. Fairy tales are indeed a more suitable carrier."

"This degree? Well, I know." Holding the book, Heshia nodded slightly, and she had a vague idea in her heart.

"Then it's decided, Danterian."

"Let's start the first official business the day after tomorrow!"
