Chapter 17 Scattered Flawless Ice Beads
"I'm back."
After brushing open the door, Heshia held the wall with one hand and took off her shoes with the other hand, changing into comfortable slippers. Her feet wrapped in white socks stepped into the soft slippers, and a relaxed and comfortable feeling came from the soles of her feet.
Let's take a shower first, Heshia walked upstairs.
"Heshia is back." When the girl reached the stairs, Grandma He came out of the kitchen.
"Yes, I found a job today, so I just got home."
"You look in a good mood, so this job should be relatively smooth." Grandma He said with a smile.
"Go change your clothes first, dinner will be ready soon, and He Chenglisha and others will come to eat later."
"Yeah." Heshia walked easily to the bedroom upstairs in slippers, took out a set of change clothes, and then went downstairs to the bathroom on the first floor to take a shower.
Compared with her own home, Grandma He's house is much larger, and even has a special bathroom, instead of the narrow shower room in an ordinary house.
It is said that it was bought by Grandma He when she was young, about 50-60 years ago. The price was not high at that time, and this residential area had just been developed.
Because she was about to eat, Heshia did not choose to take a bath, but to take a shower.
The hot water with steam filled the shower room, and the water droplets in the shower head poured down. After taking off her clothes, Heshia came to the shower head barefoot, first wet her hair with water, then poured some light blue shampoo into her palm, rubbed it into the foam, and put it on her head.
The fingertips rubbed the scalp and hair, and a slight rustling sound was directly transmitted to the ears, which was soothing.
After washing her hair, the girl stood under the shower head, letting the hot water wash away the thick foam on her head, and from time to time she rolled up her hair so that the water droplets could take care of more details. After washing the
foam, it became refreshed all of a sudden. Heshia wiped the mirror that was hazy with water vapor with her fingers, revealing part of the clear mirror surface, and her figure was clearly presented in the mirror.
She closed her eyes and shook her hair slightly to shake off some water droplets, and then her gray hair slowly turned black. When she opened her eyes again, a pair of blue and dreamy pupils appeared in the mirror.
Really...
Heshia closed her eyes and opened them again, and it took a while for her to adapt to her appearance.
She always felt that such a change was not just as simple as changing her hair color and pupils. Heshia carefully felt the changes in her body and consciousness. Since she recovered from the critical point of death that day, she felt that she had changed a lot.
First of all, the hair color and pupils. Although she was surprised about the hair color, Heshia was actually within her expectations and acceptance, because her mother and sister both had black hair, and she was an exception because she had gray hair before.
As for the color of the pupils, this was special. Her mother had common black pupils, just like her usual self, while her sister had a pair of gorgeous purple eyes. The two inherited some of their mother's characteristics, but the sister's uniqueness was more conspicuous.
Compared to her own life, which was ordinary and unadorned since childhood, her sister's life was amazing and unforgettable. Even though she died like a shooting star at the age of 18, she still left a deep impression on many people.
Her sister was 6 years older than Heshia. When Heshia was 12 years old, she had the honor to go to her sister's high school with her parents to attend the winter festival party at that time.
In that prestigious high school where geniuses and rich people gathered, her sister was still so dazzling, with peerless appearance, and whether it was the practice of the extraordinary sequence or her own talent in music, it was amazing. At that time, there were countless suitors in the school. At the age of 18, her sister reached the natural sequence 5, which was a rare perfect-level extraordinary job, breaking many records, which made people surprised and envious.
Unfortunately, her sister died suddenly due to an accident, and then her mother died when Heshia was 14 years old due to excessive grief and poor health.
Does the eye color represent a different talent from her sister, Heshia thought.
Although there is a faint sense of strange inspiration lingering in the consciousness and body, I want to grasp it but can't, and I don't know where the thread is.
Forget it, let's continue taking a shower.
Heshia picked up the shower gel beside her and poured it into her palm, and began to scrub her body.
After a few minutes, the sound of dripping water stopped. Heshia used a towel to dry her hair and body, and prepared to put on the clean clothes beside her. When she lowered her head, a few more water drops rolled down from the ends of her hair and slid into her shoulders and neck, bringing a slight coolness.
Ah...
The girl shook her head, wanting the water drops to fall quickly.
It's very troublesome to be wet. It would be nice if it could suddenly dry up. This thought floated through her mind, and she used her fingers to pinch the towel and stroked it across her ears.
Suddenly, a slight sound rang out in the bathroom.
One by one, tiny ice particles fell, rolling and spreading on the ground.
It was a very strange feeling. A coolness kept coming from her hair and back. The magic power in her body was agile and active. Her consciousness suddenly became clear at this moment. Even without turning around, Heshia could "see" the things behind and around her.
What is this? She didn't have time to change her clothes. She turned around and looked around. The ground was full of scattered ice particles and ice beads. Their shapes were also extremely transparent, which was very different from the common but opaque white ice cubes.
Not only that, those places that had not frozen before also quickly condensed as Heshia focused her eyes. Transparent and crystal ice beads rolled down from the wall and covered the ground.
Afraid of stepping on the round ice beads and falling, Heshia had to move carefully with the help of the wall and came to the mirror again.
This is... Compared with the blue in the eyes before, it is more lively, as if it has life, and even has a strange charm that makes people sink into it.
The girl looked at herself in the mirror and blinked, and after a few seconds she finally confirmed that it was herself.
Is it the manifestation of talent? She began to look for descriptions of this situation in her memories and what she had learned.
In history, there have been many peerless geniuses in the Rose Federation, but few people would describe the scene of their talent awakening, so Heshia could only guess that her situation was normal, just relatively rare.
However, how will this end?
Looking at the transparent ice beads all over the floor of the bathroom, Heshia was in a dilemma after changing her clothes. She could only sit on the small stool in the bathroom and look down at these round and crystal little guys with a slightly helpless look.
Her fingers brushed over the transparent ice beads on the ground. She picked up one of them and observed it carefully under the light. The melted water droplet was round and flawless. When it crystallized, there was no bubble or impurity in it, giving people a sense of transparent beauty that returned to nature.
How to recover? Melt it? Heshia muttered in her heart, but it didn't seem to work. Her innate ability was not related to high temperature or combustion.
Decomposition? It didn't seem right.
Recovery? At this time, a slight fatigue surged into Heshia's consciousness, and then the ice beads on the ground melted instantly, turning into a thin stream of water into the sewer next to it.
Finally solved, Heshia raised her head and looked at herself in the mirror. Slowly, the blue in her eyes disappeared and returned to the black of the past, and her hair turned into a fine gray again.
Huh, that's it.
After solving the problem, Heshia breathed a sigh of relief and opened the bathroom door.
"It's time to eat, Heshia." Grandma He's shout came from upstairs.
"I'll be right there."
Putting the changed clothes into the washing machine, Heshia walked upstairs with brisk steps.
