"Oh, right, daughter, look, this is your acceptance letter to a top high school!" Coco's mom, having finished washing the dishes with Coco's dad, smiled and took out a carefully designed-looking acceptance letter from the drawer.
"Huh?!" Coco, who was wiping the table, was stunned for a moment, then blankly accepted the admission notice.
"Don't just hold it like that, take a look," Dad urged from the side.
Coco nodded blankly, then opened the admission notice.
The sign clearly read, "Congratulations to Han Keru on becoming a student at the top-tier high school in Beijing!"
"Hey?! Why are you crying, child?" Coco's mother, sitting next to her, saw large tears streaming down Coco's face.
He quickly reached out and tenderly wiped it off for her.
"No, no, Mom, I'm just so happy." Coco wiped away her tears, smiled, and shook her head.
"Oh dear, the child is just excited. It's normal for her to shed a few tears. What do you want, Coco? Dad will buy it for you. You've really brought honor to our family!"
Coco's dad said to Coco with a hearty expression.
Coco shook her head. "No need, I'm already very happy to have been accepted!"
Coco looked at the admission certificate in her hand and smiled brightly.
"Oh no, that won't do! Our precious daughter has brought honor to our family, we absolutely have to celebrate!"
"Okay, I'll go buy some good food and then cook you a big meal tonight!" Without waiting for Coco to say anything, she happily went out to buy groceries.
"Oh dear, your dad is always like this," Coco's mom sighed with a smile.
Then he took out a stack of colored paper and scissors from a cabinet and placed them on the table.
"Mom, what is this...?" Coco was a little confused.
"You silly child, are you so happy to have received your acceptance letter that you've gone mad? Don't you love having Mom fold origami cranes with you the most? Today, Mom will fold as many as you want with you!"
Coco's mom gently patted Coco's thigh, then picked up a piece of colored paper and started folding it.
Coco then realized what was happening and picked up a piece of colored paper and folded it.
After folding one, it looked at the exquisite origami crane in its hand, and at its mother's origami crane, which looked a little rough.
A warm feeling welled up in my heart.
Just as she was about to continue folding, her body was suddenly shaken violently.
Coco's smiling face suddenly froze, and then she turned to look.
Hera, expressionless, was shaking her head wildly with her arms hanging down on her shoulders.
"Heh, Hera, stop shaking..." Coco said, shaking her head.
Hearing this, Hera also stopped.
"Hera, what brings you here..." Coco scratched her slightly dizzy head and spoke slowly.
"Are you awake?" After a long pause, Hera finally managed to speak.
"Huh, what does that mean?" Coco blinked, a little confused.
"Hey, Coco, is this your friend?" Coco's mother, who was folding origami cranes, stopped what she was doing and looked at Hera to ask.
“Ah, this is my classmate from the recruit training camp…” Coco stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence.
"New recruit training camp...?" She frowned, rubbed her head, and looked like she had a headache.
"Oh dear, Coco, what's wrong? Does your head hurt?" Coco's mother hurriedly stepped forward and touched Coco's forehead with concern.
"No, no, it's nothing, Mom, thank you!" Coco shook her head, her expression relaxing again.
"Oh, right, Hera, this is my mom. She's a very nice person. Can we say hello to her?" Coco looked at Hera and pointed to her mother.
Hera blinked her big eyes, looked at the big tree Coco was pointing to, and fell into deep thought.
"What's wrong? Sister Hera, don't you like my mother?" Seeing Hera standing still, she timidly asked.
Hera thought for a moment, then walked to the big tree and gave it a symbolic hug.
Upon seeing this, Coco smiled in relief.
"By the way, Hera, I'm folding origami cranes right now, want to join me?" He then handed a leaf to Hera.
Hera took the leaf blankly, and then saw Coco start folding leaves on her own.
“What you’re seeing is fake.” Seeing that Coco had already folded a leaf into the shape of a paper crane, Hera finally couldn’t help but speak up.
Coco's hands didn't stop; she was still folding origami cranes.
"I know," Coco said, still smiling.
Hera: ?_??
She slowly opened her mouth, just about to say something, when Coco suddenly turned her head to Hera, her eyes filled with tears.
"Even if it's fake, let me spend more time with my family. I haven't felt warmth in so long..."
Seeing this, Hera didn't know what to do for a moment.
Seeing that Hera stopped talking, Coco took it as tacit consent and continued folding origami cranes.
Just then, Hera slowly raised her elbow and aimed it at the back of Coco's neck.
Just as Hera was about to knock him unconscious with an elbow strike.
Coco's body suddenly twitched, and then she looked at the leaf in her hand with a blank expression.
Then he smiled with relief.
"Thank you, Hera..." She had just turned her head, ready to thank Hera, when she saw Hera's elbow hanging in mid-air, and couldn't help but freeze.
Hera, without batting an eye, calmly withdrew her hand.
"You're awake," Hera asked again.
Coco realized what was happening and nodded somewhat awkwardly.
"Yeah, I'm awake. Um... I'm sorry to have troubled Sister Hera earlier." Coco scratched her face, still feeling shaken.
But then she looked at the leaves beside her that she had folded into origami cranes and sighed softly.
A tear slowly rolled down her cheek from the corner of her eye.
...
"I give up! If I'd known you were such an unreliable idiot, I wouldn't have stayed with you!"
Ye Ciqing followed Wang Canxin as they ran wildly across the lawn, followed by a group of seemingly delirious new recruits chasing after them.
"Please trust me one more time. Just stay with me!"
Wang Canxin turned to look at Ye Ciqing, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.
Ye Ciqing looked at his determined gaze with a strange expression, then glanced at the several new recruits behind him who looked like zombies.
He nodded with a long face, "If anything else happens, I'll hang you from a tree and beat you."
Wang Canxin nodded and thanked him, saying, "Thank you for your trust."
"Ugh—" Ye Ciqing said with a look of disgust.
"By the way, could you give me a weapon? Preferably a throwable weapon that can be concealed."
"What use would a weapon be to someone with such skinny arms and legs like you?"
Despite saying that, Ye Ciqing still used his ability to conjure a throwing knife in his hand and tossed it to Wang Canxin.
"Thank you." Wang Canxin nodded, then suddenly stopped.
He made a cut in the tree next to him, and a rope tied to it was severed.
Then a large net made of vines suddenly rose up.
They netted all the new recruits who were chasing them and hung them high in the tree.
