When he heard fina's words, Lena's heart thumped. He quickly turned to look at the girl. She couldn't see any expression on her face, but there was a little glittering in her eyes.
Fina walked slowly to her father's bed, sat down on a slightly worn chair, reached out and gently grasped his shriveled hand.
"Bed seven needs to run out of medicine."
At this time, the nurse on duty downstairs went into the ward, mechanically took down the needle tube pinned on fina's father's hand, simply stopped bleeding with cotton, and then left without saying a word to finado.
"Let's go."
After a while, fina got up and walked out of the ward.
In the process, Lena didn't say anything. He realized that Feina and her father didn't seem to have a good relationship, and the town was a little strange, but he decided to wait for Feina to speak.
Out of the hospital, fina breathed a long sigh of relief, and then pointed to the distance, far away from the town, a tower on a small hill, whispered.
"That's my home, principal Ian gray."
In the small town at night, only the dim lights on the roadside illuminate a small area of roads, but it seems that there is no need to worry about bumping into people, because the huge streets are silent and no pedestrians pass by.
It's like a backward ancient village. It works at sunrise and stops at sunset.
"Should I stay in a hotel?"
Lena looked around. The doors were closed and dark.
"There's no hotel in sur town. To be exact, there are usually no outsiders here."
Fina sighed, making Lena look over.
"Principal Ian gray, you'd better come to my house and have a rest first."
She didn't shy away from anything and seemed to trust Lena.
"Well, all right."
Lena could only keep up with the petite girl who had not reached her chest and walked to the tower.
The road was very dark, but Phina was familiar with it, as if she had gone through it thousands of times. After walking in the dark for about 20 minutes, they came to the bottom of the secluded tower.
The tower has four floors, and is located on the hill, which is enough to overlook the whole city. But the outer walls are covered with moss, and the indistinct walls are very shabby. Fina takes out the key to open the door, and the rotten wooden door creaks and slowly opens.
By starlight, Lena saw what the tower looked like.
There were piles of parchment on the table in the hall, all kinds of materials needed to construct magic were everywhere, and there was almost no place to stay on the ground. Compared with Antoine's Alchemy workshop that Lena first saw, it was obviously much more messy here.
Fina sighed, lit the candle on the wall, and then bent down to clean up the room.
Lena just stood at the door and waited for a while before fina sorted out a small area where people could sit down.
"I'm sorry, my father doesn't pay much attention to packing these things... I'll make tea."
In Lena's opinion, this is the surprising side of this girl. Originally, she thought that she should be a good girl focusing on her study, but she didn't expect to have such a home.
Her body is a light skirt, at this time put on an apron, is cleaning the teapot in the pool, I do not know why, let Lena think of that kind of good at taking care of people's sister image.
"Please use it."
Taking out a cup of clear tea, fina also sits on the chair next to Lena. From just now on, she has been carrying some kind of slight sadness, which has affected Lena.
"Well, it's delicious."
I thought that in such a messy room, tea and other things should have expired and could not be drunk, but the tea made by fina was unexpectedly delicious, and the faint aroma of tea made me have endless aftertaste.
"My father is a wizard."
Fina took a sip of tea with her cup in her hands. Then she took this opportunity and said.
"It's just that he hasn't achieved much in recent years, but he refuses to give up his research and barely makes a living. It's really terrible."
Fina's father is the only mage born in this small town. After graduating from the school of magic and gaining the rank of official mage, she somehow chose to return here. Later, fina's mother died soon after she was born, leaving their father and daughter in the world.
According to Feina, her father may be the worst father in the world. Since childhood, her father has never cared about Feina's life, nor taught her even a magic. In Feina's childhood memory, her father has never conducted any related magic research, just like an ordinary farmer, working every day.
Her mother died early and her father couldn't take care of others, which made her self-reliance from a very young age. From cleaning the room to washing and cooking, life forced her to learn all this.
If that's all, then it's OK.
"This town, principal Ian gray, you may have noticed that they don't like mages, they don't like magic."Said fina, looking out of the window at the dark town.
"People here have been living a primitive life all the time. It is said that they were cheated by a mage in the past. As a result, most of the income in the town was wiped out. Since then, people have been extremely disgusted with mages and unwilling to accept the help of other mages."
And her father is secretly learning magic, was valued by a passing mage, to enter the school of magic study.
But fina couldn't figure out why her father would come back to this place after he became an official mage.
Even if her father had not been engaged in magic related work at the beginning, fina would still be ridiculed by her peers. Those hateful boys would abuse fina as a "witch" and a watch that would lure men to go to bed. They would throw rotten eggs and leftover fruits at fina, and even pour cow dung on her head.
This situation lasted until fina was ten years old. An uncle convinced her father to send her to crescent college to learn magic. Fina got rid of this nightmare place.
After Feina left, her father began to study magic again, but it was of no practical value. Feina could only see some of his life from his father's letters from time to time.
But fina has already decided that she must become an official mage and leave this stupid and backward town forever.
This explains why Feina works so hard and gets good grades, because she has no choice. Other students can go home to inherit their family business and take the exam several times to become a mage, but Feina can't.
However, all these plans were broken by her father's sudden serious illness.
"It's raining."
Outside the window, the sparse stars are covered by dark clouds, and a summer rainstorm is coming.
