*******

April 4, 287 in the imperial calendar of the British Empire.

I, Carol, am 14 years old.

"Carol, this is my home and where you will live later."

Mr. Falk introduced me warmly to the luxurious mansion in front of him.

How big and luxurious - that's my first feeling when I saw Mr. Falk's residence.

He disagreed with his father, so he had a big quarrel with his father and decided to run away from home. Not long after leaving home, he met Mr. Falk, who was just running to the north to do business.

Because of my excellent cooking, Mr. Falk, who has the quirk of "like adoption and have all kinds of abilities", invited me to live in his house.

I was just homeless, so I followed Mr. Falk south to Elvin City, Mr. Falk's headquarters, and prepared to stay in Mr. Falk's residence.

The above is my life experience in the past few months.

……

……

Mr. Falk's residence is very large. In order to cater to his own preferences, he opened many rooms in the residence for people with various abilities like me.

The room I was assigned to is not big or small. I think other people's rooms should be similar to mine.

There should be a lot of furniture, such as beds, tables, chairs, mirrors, bedding... There is no shortage of things necessary for life.

I picked up the mirror on the table.

The mirror reflected a lovely face.

When I was still living in my hometown, some boys in the village suddenly ran over and said they liked me.

Very few people even said they wanted to marry me.

I didn't realize that I was cute before. I didn't realize that my face was cute until many boys from the same village and other villages came and told me they liked me.

And for these boys who keep saying they like me, of course - I refuse them all.

There are also some handsome men among these boys.

But I'm just not interested in them.

My mother once asked me what kind of boy I like.

I didn't answer my mother's question at that time.

Because I don't know what the answer is.

I touched my short water blue hair, which was equal to my chin, and then sighed.

It must be false to say that you are not afraid when you come to this strange environment without relatives.

Can I live here?

Can I find friends?

Will I be bullied by people here?

These problems have been bothering me lately.

Knock knock knock knock knock knock at the door.

Who -- I opened the door with this question.

Outside the door, there were three girls a little older than me.

"Hello ~ ~"

The head of the three girls had long red hair.

But it looks ordinary.

It should be said that these three people are ordinary in appearance.

"Are you new?"

The red haired girl asked me enthusiastically.

"Ah, yes..."

I turned my tongue because I was not used to speaking britannian.

"My name is Carol cook. From today on, I will officially stay here. "

"Hello ~ ~" the red haired girl continued in her warm tone, "my name is Harriet. The three of us, like you, were adopted by Mr. Falk."

"My name is Jima."

"My name is Jennifer."

The two girls standing behind Harriet also introduced themselves one by one.

"After learning that a new person came today, the three of us immediately came to see what the new person looked like."

Harriet patted her chest and looked relieved.

"It's great. The newcomer is a lovely girl, not a disagreeable smelly boy."

"Carol, it's almost time for lunch now. If it's convenient for you, would you like to have lunch with us? We can also take you to familiarize yourself with the surrounding environment. "

"Well! I have time! "

I agreed to Harriet's invitation without hesitation.

I was worried that I had no relatives or friends in this place. Someone - and a girl took the initiative to invite me to dinner.

Unless my head is pinched by the door, I will refuse the invitation of these three people.

I followed Harriet and walked outside the mansion.

Along the way, Harriet introduced me to some rules of living here.

"Carol, remember, don't take the initiative to ask others what your abilities are."

"Hey? Why? " I asked Harriet.

"You should also know - Mr. Falk, he likes to adopt people with all kinds of talents."

"There are many people with... Strange talents."

"Some people are ashamed to say what their talents are."

"So over time, we can't take the initiative to ask what other people's talents are - this rule has become a hidden rule here."

"No matter how rebellious people are, they will abide by this customary rule."

"After all, if you violate this rule, you will be despised and despised by everyone. No matter how arrogant you are, you don't want to be despised and despised by everyone."

"So it is..." I nodded and silently remembered Harriet's words.

I felt lucky in my heart - if Harriet hadn't told me this rule in time, I might have violated this unspoken rule in a muddle.

"Harriet, thank you for telling me this."

I thanked Harriet from the bottom of my heart.

"You're welcome." Harriet smiled, "after all, from now on, we will be a family..."

Before Harriet had finished her words, she suddenly paused.

Then he murmured softly:

"I ran into him..."

He?

I looked forward in doubt.

In front of us, a famous teenager with black hair and black pupils, who should be about the same age as me, came towards us.

Harriet, it seemed that they had deliberately avoided the dark haired boy and leaned towards the edge of the corridor.

I didn't know why. I had to stick to the corridor with Harriet.

When I was about to pass the black haired boy, I deflected my eyes slightly and threw curious eyes at the black haired boy.

Maybe it's because I think my face is raw. The black haired boy is also slightly deflecting his eyes and moving his eyes directly in front to my face.

I collided with his eyes in mid air.

This man... Looks good - this is my initial impression of the black haired boy.

After I collided with the black haired boy's eyes in mid air, my heart beat faster.

After passing us, the black haired boy took back his eyes and no longer looked at me with a curious look.

Until the black haired boy passed me, I subconsciously turned back and let my eyes chase the back of the black haired boy.
