Fallen grid shop

Chapter 48 Medals and Card Issuance

first encounter

"Excuse me, is anyone there?"

Lulu who heard the voice came out from the study, made a cup of black tea, and signaled the guests to sit down.

The visitor was a woman in her 20s, dressed very delicately, but she still couldn't hide her haggard look and her pair of empty and lifeless eyes.

Lulu took a look at the human in front of her, and asked her with a smile, "Are you here to find Luoluo?"

"Luoluo? Is that the elf?"

"Well, wait a minute, she has something to do, and she will come when it's done."

"Okay." The woman replied, and slumped on the cushion in front of the table.

Lulu took out her poker and played Solitaire with her tail wagging. At this time, the silent woman asked weakly: "That... Excuse me for asking, your tail and ears are not real, right?"

"Ah? It's true."

Seeing Lulu with a calm face, the woman smiled and said nothing.By the time Luoluo finished feeding Jixiang the medicine and came out, the pot of black tea had bottomed out.Luoluo smiled apologetically at the woman and sat down.

"What's the matter with me?"

"My name is Leng Yu, and I come from One Leaf City. A year ago, I heard rumors that there was a lattice shop in Aurora City, which was located at the northernmost point of the glacier and connected to the forest. The shop owner is a powerful but gentle elf girl. The store does not accept gold and silver coins, but you can exchange the things you meet with your favorite people for a wish."

Hearing this, Luoluo nervously asked the person in front of her, "How many humans know about this?"

"I just vaguely heard from an old woman that her son disappeared more than ten years ago, and it is said that you found it. Everyone is half-believed and should listen to the story. I just remembered this incident recently. I came here to try my luck. I didn't expect it to exist."

"I see. Then what is your wish?"

"I have no wish, I just want to give you the thing I met, and take that memory away together."

Looking at Luoluo and Lulu who were full of doubts, Leng Yu smiled and said lightly: "If you want."

"Willing is willing, but..." Luoluo took out the contract and looked at the person in front of her, "In principle, this is a deal for us."

Leng Yu smiled wryly while signing and said, "I'm ashamed to say that I came here with a little selfishness. When he just disappeared, I didn't feel anything. I thought in my heart that the story between me and that person might just end like this." That’s right, but every time I want to start over, my mind is full of that person, and I realize that I don’t have the courage to start a new life.”

"disappear?"

"Yeah, maybe dead. I'd be happy to tell you the story if I wanted to."

Hearing this sentence, Lulu nodded frantically.Leng Yu smiled softly and began to tell her own story.

In the year 242 of the Western Sena Continent, Leng Yu, who had just grown up, was walking with his companions on the outskirts of Yiye City with a small bag on his back.Under the clear sky, the peaceful and peaceful atmosphere made her feel very happy.

"Let's camp here." Lu Renjia signaled.

"Yes, there are mountains and rivers nearby, suitable for camping." Lu Ren agreed.

Several people hurriedly set up the tent and began to divide the work.As a girl who can't cook, Leng Yu was naturally assigned to the firewood group.As a result, she was too involved, and somehow walked to someone else's camp.

"You are?" The man looked at Leng Yu, who was holding Chai in a daze, and laughed.

"My name is Leng Yu, and I'm from the camp next door. No, I'm sorry to disturb your camping."

"It's okay." The man waved his hand, "Do you need my help to move the firewood back?"

"Okay." Leng Yu nodded with a smile.

The man's name was Meng Yi, and he was a non-commissioned officer in Yiye City's army. He came out with his comrades because of a rare vacation.

When approaching the campsite, Leng Yu involuntarily asked for the address.Meng Yi was also very generous, rubbing the back of his head and telling her his contact address.

Leng Yu, who returned to the campsite, couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart, and couldn't help talking to her friends about how handsome Meng Yi was and how she could help her.Even friends joked that it was rare for Leng Yu to have such an affair today.

"I don't know what kind of girl he likes."

The friends chattered to reassure Leng Yu that with her looks, she was as good as most of the others.

In this way, Leng Yu, who came back from the campsite, wrote the first letter to Meng Yi.After saying the words of thanks, Leng Yu implicitly expressed her thoughts.

A week later, Meng Yi's letter came back.Leng Yu opened it anxiously, but she didn't see what Meng Yi said that she wanted to hear.

"Is it because I'm not straightforward enough that he doesn't understand?"

Leng Yu put away the reply in doubt, and started to write the second letter.Under Leng Yu's unremitting guidance for a month, the fourth reply finally changed.

There were no touching words or sweet teasing, only a medal lying in the bag.The letter attached inside has only one sentence: The first medal in my life, I give it to you.

Leng Yu, who was at a loss, found a friend. After many inquiries, Leng Yu found out that the original soldier's medal was only given to the person he loved the most.

Leng Yu blushed, ran home full of joy, and wrote the fifth letter: "When can we meet again?"

On the day when the letter was supposed to be received, Leng Yu woke up early.When he opened the door, he didn't see the postman, but outside the door, Meng Yi in blue uniform turned his head and smiled at her.

"When can we meet you? Let's do it now."

Leng Yu blushed and smiled back at Meng Yi.Meng Yi stretched out his hand, palm facing up, and handed it in front of her.

Meng Yi took her for a long walk that day, from the park in the middle of the street, to the fountain, and then to her favorite snack bar.That was Leng Yu's happiest day, and it was also the day when her love with Meng Yi began.

Life in the army is always well-regulated, and Meng Yi seldom has vacations with Leng Yu.But Leng Yu didn't mind, looking forward to the postman knocking on her door every day has become an important part of her life.

During that time, Leng Yu was like any ordinary girl in love, staring at those letters from time to time and giggling in a daze.Whenever Meng Yi came to pick her up to go out to play, Leng Yu would stand in front of the closet and struggle for a long time, changing clothes one after another.

Several times, Leng Yu couldn't help but secretly went to the army to see Meng Yi.See him swaying his sweat and enthusiasm under the scorching sun, see him earnestly complete the task, and see him sitting on the ground in a daze when he is resting.Looking at Meng Yi who was shining in the team, Leng Yu was extremely happy.

The blessings of friends and the support of comrades made Leng Yu dizzy.She was like a person wrapped in bubbles, but she forgot that the reality was far more cruel.

She used to think that time could last forever like this.She had thought that Meng Yi would come back one day and tell her let's get married and live a peaceful life.But reality is never satisfactory.

It was a sunny day when the No.20 eight letters were sent to Leng Yu.As usual, Leng Yu waited at the door early, waiting for the postman to arrive.However, after the letter he had been thinking about was opened, Leng Yu's heart collapsed several times.
