"...All the suffering survivors in the wasteland are comrades on the same front. Although we have not fought side by side, I believe that you, who are kind-hearted, will not refuse to become friends with the people of Borneo Province.

Zayin De's head turned rapidly.
Although he had not yet broken free from the chaotic downtime, he still subconsciously lowered his posture and tried to regain some goodwill from this little girl.
"My name is Zayin De...Dear Miss Alyssa, I'm really sorry for disturbing you in this way."
Although glib humor can alleviate embarrassment, it is obviously not likable.
However, seeing that he took the initiative to report his name, Alyssa relaxed her frown and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Alyssa, first time meeting...and you?"
Unexpectedly, this distinguished lady would actually turn her eyes to him. Savar, who was standing behind Zayinder, did not dare to look at those beautiful eyes and stammered.
"I...Vasa."
Seeing how hopeless this guy was, Zayinder sighed and looked at Alyssa with a slight apology.
"Sorry, he is...my student and also my assistant. Although he is very capable, he is a little shy."
"I'm sorry!" Sava quickly bowed to express his apology.
Seeing this clumsy young man, Alyssa suddenly thought of herself last year, couldn't help but smile, and said in a gentle tone.
"There is no need to apologize for this kind of thing. No one is born to be able to stand alone. My... a friend used to cry when he encountered difficulties, but now he can calmly think about some countermeasures. I
I believe you can do the same. After all, the road you have traveled is much longer than hers."
She didn't know how far away Borneo was, but it should be much further than the distance between Stone City and Dawn City.
"Thanks……"
The sound was like the spring breeze blowing across his face. The young man buried his head lower, staring directly at the tips of his shoes, and the blush spread from his cheeks to the roots of his ears.
What a kind girl!
No one has ever encouraged him like this, not even his closest family members.
Although he had no doubt that Mr. Zayinde was right, he still couldn't help but be confused...whether the gentleman who had been helping him and teaching him had misunderstood something.
Turning her eyes to Zayinder's face, Alyssa continued with a slightly serious voice.
"Mr. Zayinde, I am not a petty person. If you are sincerely sorry, just tell me directly. Please don't use the survivors of Borneo as a shield. Of course we are happy to cooperate with the survivors of Borneo."
They become friends, but you still cannot represent them.”
"Indeed... I didn't think carefully." Zayin De admitted his mistake simply and frankly.
Maybe there is something wrong with my reasoning.
This woman who cares about little things doesn't look like a particularly dignified woman. Instead, she makes him feel a bit...silly?
It would be fine if it was because she looked down upon her own abilities, but it was obviously not for this reason. She seemed to be acting like a child.
Does it matter whether you lie or not on such an innocuous issue? In the end, it didn’t have any bad effects.
Not to mention that he reconciled his words in the end, and anyone with a little bit of political cultivation would laugh at him.
And if he wins in the end, this might become a good story in people's mouth.
However, he did not think that there was any problem with his analysis, it was just that there was a lack of information.
It is extremely difficult to investigate a person in Dawn City, especially for him who is still in the entrepreneurial stage. He does not have a group of loyal guards who are loyal to him, and he does not even have diplomatic immunity.
Be careful not to break Alliance laws.
Alyssa nodded slightly and whispered a few words to the staff member who looked unhappy next to her.
"I have indeed never met them, but they are not bad people, but there may be some misunderstandings."
The staff member still looked worried and asked seriously.
"Do you really don't need me to call security?"
Alyssa said dumbfounded.
"No, no, no, don't cause trouble to others with this little matter, I will take care of it."
The latter's expression gradually softened, and he stared at Zayinder with a warning look, which seemed to say, "I remember your face." Then he turned around and walked back to the arena.
After watching him leave, Alyssa looked at Zayinder again.
"Let's get down to business. What do you want to see me for? Well...but before that, I actually want to know, where did you hear my name?"
Zayin De had a pleasant smile on his face. After all, he still wanted something from the girl in front of him.
"You underestimate your own popularity. Your name is known to everyone in Boulder City, and it is no less famous than that of the fictional Bol."
Alyssa said politely.
"You're flattering me, I'm not such a great person."
Zayinde continued with a smile.
"No, I don't mean to flatter you at all. I would rather say... I admire you very much."
The polite expression on Alyssa's face did not change, but the smile was still repelling people thousands of miles away.
"Even if you praise me, it won't do any good."
"You are too wary of me. In fact, everything I say is true..." Gazing at those wise eyes, Zayinder pretended to be innocent, sighed and said, "From the beer hall
From the drunkard to the newsboy delivering newspapers to the teller lady behind the bank counter... everyone has given you high praise."
"They all unanimously praised your bravery and kindness, thinking that it was you who allowed them to avoid the worst outcome and finally achieved that almost impossible miracle."
"To be honest, I don't believe in the existence of gods in this world, but I still can't help but wonder whether you are blessed by gods. After all, it would be difficult for anyone else to have a good death."
After listening to the emotional words, Alyssa suddenly believed what this person said.
He may indeed have some filters of admiration for himself, but what he admires is neither his own personality nor something he is proud of.
But something else...
Just like the shadows used to highlight the light spots in a sketch.
But if this is the case, then the residents of Borneo Province would be too pitiful.
There was most likely a casino that was even bigger than the former Boulder City, and the chips placed in that casino were most likely an astronomical number that she had never heard of.
A thin trickle of sweat couldn't help but form on Alyssa's forehead.
She instinctively wanted to save those people, so she spoke subconsciously.
"...Indeed, even if I think about what happened that day today, I still feel scared. But I don't think that I have been blessed by the gods, nor do I think that I am a miracle."
Not knowing what she was thinking at this moment, Zayinde said with a smile in a coaxing tone.
"If this is not a miracle, what kind of thing would it take to be a miracle?"
Alyssa said without hesitation.
"It's the residents of Boulder City."
Zayin De was slightly stunned.
"The residents of Boulder City? Ah... Of course, I don't deny that they are indeed indispensable. Their courage and ideals are equally impressive-"
"It's the residents of Boulder City."
Alyssa repeated her words again, and there was a hint of hope, or pleading, in her unmistakable voice.
"Why do you think I'm a miracle... It's obvious that they are still looking for light when the night comes, they are the ones who still don't give up even though the flame of hope has been extinguished countless times, it's obvious that you are looking for everyone you have seen before finding me.
They are all miracles, why do you think I am the miracle?"
Zayin De was stunned for a moment.
It wasn't because the girl in front of him said something inappropriate for her age, but because he didn't know why she was so excited.
What's this……
Very important thing?
Those polite words he said were just to gain her favor, but now it seems that his flattery has hit the horse's leg again.
What does this guy want?
Zayin De couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his heart, but he didn't show that annoyed expression on his face.
As if sensing his impatience or resistance, Alyssa stared into his eyes seriously and couldn't help but speed up her speech.
"...Mr. Zayinder, I must say it again, my life and death are not worth mentioning in the face of the real wave! No matter whether I died that night or not, no matter where my body was hung in the end, it will not matter to Boulder City
It won’t have any impact tomorrow, the sun will still rise and set at the right time.”
"I am not the miracle you imagined. Those who let me go are the real miracles."
"They could have let that fire burn unchecked, pinned all the mistakes on a little girl, and then stepped on our corpses and moved into the inner city. They could have become the new owners of the casino, but they closed it themselves
This casino...everyone who comes out of the casino is a miracle."
To be continued...
