There is love in the world, but there is no cure

Natos City on the Suling River is as prosperous as ever today.

In a restaurant with a medium-sized storefront, the cook puts the prepared meals on the conveyor belt, and they slide smoothly to the terminal under the blessing of magic.The blond-haired, blue-eyed boy skillfully caught the plates one by one, and then shuttled between the tables.

Putting one of them on the table, the boy smiled and said, "Your dish." The other party also winked at him.

"Loyle!" The lady proprietress who was serving new customers not far away turned her head and called, "add another signboard to table 7." Hearing this, the young man entered the kitchen at the back smartly, and conveyed the received instructions to the office closest to the door. Aunt Mary.

Another chef next to him smiled and handed him something: "Take it." Leuer looked down and found that it was beautifully packaged sugar. After thanking him, he carefully put it in his pocket and continued to work.

Before leaving get off work, he arranged the tables and chairs neatly, said goodbye to everyone, and Leuer walked home as usual.It's early spring, and it's getting warmer.Some of the trees beside the road sprouted green buds, and some even burst into lovely flowers.

From time to time, we met elves on the road, children after school chased each other, and elderly grandparents paced forward.

It was a series of old-fashioned small buildings. Leuer went up quietly and waved his right hand at the door of his house.Small golden fragments emerged, dancing towards the door.After a light touch, the door was opened.

On the second day, a few young elves who had never seen before were seated in the restaurant. The clothes were obviously more delicate and smooth, and the ornaments on the head and waist were inlaid with finely crafted gemstones.The proprietress observed from a distance, stepped forward and handed out the menu, "What would you like to order?"

The one nearby didn't look at her: "Let that guy take off his hat."

The proprietress followed the gaze of the other party, and saw that it was Loyle not far away with her back turned to her.how?In my impression, this kid is diligent and never causes trouble, so theoretically there shouldn't be anything to do with it.After hesitating, he raised his voice: "Loyle? A guest is looking for you."

The boy turned his head, and when he saw the elves beside the table, doubts flashed across his eyes.But he still came over, unexpectedly the one who spoke first stood up suddenly and reached out to snatch the hat that Leuer had been wearing all along.

Seeing this, Leuer subconsciously backed away, and one of them said, "Look, I'll tell you that there is indeed a problem!" Afterwards, the others stood up and surrounded him.

The sudden commotion disturbed the other guests, and everyone's eyes were focused on the center of the incident for a moment.

The proprietress was surprised: "What are you doing?!" The other party is a customer, and as a store owner, I can't use spells rashly on him.So she could only stretch out her hand to block these dudes, but she was pushed back a bit: "Don't get in the way!"

Leuer didn't expect them to be so rude. For a while, he just wanted to help the female elf who usually took good care of him, but felt that his head was empty, and his hat was actually taken off.

It happened so suddenly that there was no time to cover it.All kinds of gazes seemed to have changed, and Leuer quickly ran to the backyard after a short period of stiffness.

The proprietress obviously knew the reason, she turned her head to question those troublemakers, but found that they had already left.What was left to her was anxiety, anger, fear, and complicated emotions.Trying to make herself show a gentle and decent smile, the proprietress said: "Everyone, please don't worry, he is a very good child and will not cause trouble to everyone."

Noisy as expected.

"It's not up to you whether it's safe or not."

"Isn't this the elf continent? Why are there demons?!"

"You actually have such employees!"

"I will never come again!!"

Between the words, an elf has already left the restaurant.

The proprietress raised her hand to try to appease the public, and said helplessly, "I'll take care of this matter, everyone, please don't panic. To express my apologies, I've taken all the orders here today."

Close to closing time, the proprietress walked around the restaurant and found that Leuer was helping to wash in the kitchen, with a pair of purple pointed horns on his head, which are considered to be the distinctive characteristics of demons.In fact, the employees of the entire store knew about Leuer's situation, so they didn't find it strange to see him without a hat.

The boy heard a voice calling himself, and when he looked up, he found that the elf, who had always been gentle and calm in his impression, was standing at the door of the kitchen.Seeing him looking over, the proprietress beckoned, "Let's talk."

Leuer hesitated for a moment, put down the things in his hand, walked to the proprietress, and did not forget to check the situation of the guests in the restaurant through the door.

Seeing this, the proprietress smiled: "There is no one there, shall we go to the backyard and talk?"

Leuer nodded.

The backyard of this restaurant is located in an open area, full of trees, and magnolias of various colors bloom quietly.Going deeper, you will see more and more vines, which surround a wooden chair.

The two elves sat on the chairs, and the proprietress asked casually, "What are your plans for the future, child?"

This question really surprised Leuer, his eyes blinked a few times uncontrollably, and his tone could not hide his surprise: "Who are you?"

Long or short, Leuer has been working here for two years.

The proprietress still remembers the first time she met him.

That year, there was a rare heavy snowfall in the city of Natos, and everywhere he looked was covered with snow.With the roads blocked and impenetrable, and the elves on the streets almost invisible, she gave all the restaurant staff a holiday.On the way home, I saw a bright red color at the bottom of the tree that had buried a large area of ​​the lower part of the tree.

I approached out of curiosity, only to find that it was a thin and small boy.She was unconscious in a thin red dress, her face was pale but extremely delicate.

There are many elves with outstanding looks, but this strange "elf" has a unique sense of beauty, and his temperament is quite different.It looked like a little rabbit raised when I was a child, and the proprietress took it back home in a moment of resignation.

At first the young man was not willing to talk, but the proprietress took care of him seriously, bought warm clothes, invited Loyle to come to work in her shop, and paid him three months' rent in advance.Slowly, Leuer told her many things, such as being a hybrid of elves and demons.

As time passed, the young boy who was weak at the time was only sixteen now, but he had become calm and personable.

At this time, the proprietress looked into his eyes seriously and said: "There was a matter that you didn't mention, and I never asked. Now I hope you can answer as honestly as possible."

Leuer responded softly: "Yes."

"Two years ago, why did you pass out alone in the snow?"

It was said that Leuer's reaction was obviously slow, he lowered his head slightly, his lips moved slightly but he didn't say anything for a few seconds.

The proprietress waited quietly.

As if he had finally organized his language, the young man said: "That year, a plague happened inexplicably in the place where we lived, and many residents died of illness, including my parents."

"Before I died, they told me to leave."

So he kept walking and walking, surrounded by completely unfamiliar scenery, until heavy snow fell and seemed to cover everything.His vision gradually blurred, and a little bit of coldness seeped into his heart.

"Actually," Leuer's eyelashes trembled a little at this point, "I just feel too tired and want to find a place to sleep."

As if a long time passed, the warmth melted the ice that trapped him like a spring breeze.Opening her eyes again, she saw the female elf's innocent smile.

"Well, you are working as a kitchen helper during this time, so you should avoid the limelight. I will ask the elf to take your place." The proprietress said, "You will come back when the situation improves."

Leuer watched her seriously after she finished speaking, and then smiled: "Okay."

The next day, Leuer changed his clothes and came to the kitchen to report.

Uncle Root, who usually likes to stuff him with small things, yelled like nothing happened: "Come on!"

Next is Aunt Mary who just finished washing dishes: "Come and learn how to cook with me, little guy?"

Before the words were finished, the other chefs laughed, and some said, "Why don't you cook meat for me, I'll get you some extra, the lady boss won't say anything."

Leuer bent his eyes and picked up the broom next to the wall: "Don't bother everyone for now, I'll clean it first."

After sweeping the kitchen clean, Leuer washed the rag and carefully wiped the walls, pots and tables.Last used utensils are properly cleaned and returned to their original locations.

His days as a kitchen helper had officially begun.

At that time, the boy was choosing vegetables for Aunt Mary, but he felt a pat on the shoulder.Seeing him turn his head, the meat chef smiled kindly: "Go and contact Uncle, there is almost not enough seasoning."

In the past, Leuer was still a waiter, and he did such things in his spare time.So he responded, handed the cooked dishes to the cook, washed his hands and went out from the backyard.

The restaurant's ingredients have always been purchased from a fixed supplier, and the place where the other party lives is not far from here, so Leuer habitually walked over to discuss the time and quantity of the product demand.

On the way back, the boy gradually stopped in his tracks as if he had discovered something.Then, he frowned.

It has been half a month since he was taken off his hat, but that feeling is still unforgettable for Leuer.

What's more... the moment when the instigator suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Hey, life is pretty cool," one of them stepped forward, "Have you been fired?"

While Leuer hesitated, the image of the proprietress flashed through his mind, so he decided to take a detour.Seeing this, the elves surrounded him on the street, causing Leuer to temporarily suppress his emotions, and said coldly: "What kind of hatred do you have against me?"

"It's nothing. You know that many elves hate demons. Some of us accidentally saw the hat on your head and wanted to see it. We didn't expect it to be quite exciting."

Leuer felt that they might not be too boring: "Are you finished, get out of the way."

The elf on the opposite side stretched out his hand as if trying to pull him, but the next second, accompanied by the scream of the other party, was a sudden flash of light.

Leuer held the golden bow that appeared at an unknown time across his chest, raised his eyes and said, "You all think I'm too easy to bully."

That bow is very beautiful, and it shows an extraordinary aura in the sun.
