Xia Yibing's last homemade fishing line was also taken away by the fish. She looked at her fingers that were left with red marks, and suddenly lifted up the girl's skirt, revealing a section of her white and tender thighs.
"What are you doing?" Hitzfeld looked at him in surprise.
But she soon understood that Xia Yibing had no intention of going any further. She just lifted her left ankle and pulled her to a different sitting position, and then concentrated on massaging her foot - this was to relieve the pain of her sprain.
Hitzfeld's initial panic and caution gradually turned into calmness and enjoyment.
She even observed the woman's focused expression with interest - she was the one who really knew how to capture the scene.
"When does the vacation end?" she asked suddenly.
"I'm not sure..." Xia Yibing said in a muffled voice, "But I think it will only be a few days."
The Longguo group had once again achieved great success, and both of them had suffered a huge shock physically and mentally, so they were all granted a long vacation.
But it wouldn't be too long anyway. After all, the woman in front of him was the director of the Security Bureau, and it was inappropriate for her to always be on vacation.
At this point, the atmosphere began to change again.
With a mixture of reluctance, the spark of emotion began to heat up... The woman gradually loosened her feet and moved closer to the girl, stretching out her hands to hold her in her arms.
But she didn't go too far.
No matter how daring she was, this situation was too ridiculous. She couldn't do anything, just as the girl said at the beginning - she was not willing to take any risks in this matter.
After a long time, Xia Yibing let go of the breathless Hitzfeld, looked down at her pretty face, and took off her blindfold, lifting her hair to reveal her complete eyebrows and smooth forehead.
"I want to see you lying on this reef with just your collar on."
He leaned close to her ear and said something inexplicably.
"..." Hitzfeld's breathing quickened, and he was too embarrassed to utter any rebuttal.
"But not this time." Xia Yibing pinched her face.
"You can bring Lily with you next time... We need it to help stand guard."
"..." Faced with such overly bold and aggressive remarks, Hitzfeld was unable to refute.
Just because she imagined the scene in her mind, she always felt that it was indeed... filled with a primitive beauty.
There's not only her in the picture, but also Xia.
Love is not just one-sided, she is also looking forward to some special scenes with certain people...
They changed their sitting position, this time she sat up straight, and put the woman's upper body, especially her head, on his legs, and they continued to relax and look at the sea.
A sailboat passed by in the distance, accompanied by the sound of waves and the calls of seabirds. If you look carefully, you can even hear the rough ballads blown by the wind.
"You know what, Xia."
Hitzfeld stroked the woman's black hair and said something on a whim.
"I never understood what Russell said before he found himself... I always felt that it was not something he could figure out on his own."
"You mean something like the bloodline theory?"
Xia Yibing squinted her eyes and enjoyed the girl's lap.
Although the girl is thin, there is a lot of soft flesh on her thighs. Leaning on them is just like leaning on a pillow. She feels so comfortable that she wants to moan.
"That's it," Hitzfeld said.
"Including what Bokan said about someone contacting Kyle before him... Although we didn't find any trace of Nirikui in the end of the investigation, I still think they were behind this."
"Just take your time to check." Xia Yibing raised her eyebrows.
"As you can see... Sarah is not going to fall apart..."
"The royal family... many people are working hard... the truth will eventually come out."
"One day, we can come here to see the sea every day."
"I hope so." Hitzfeld smiled bitterly.
She didn't think it was that easy.
"By the way, Xia."
"how."
"I also learned a folk song, which is also about the sea. Would you like to listen to it?"
"I am glad to."
Xia Yibing perked up—she had never heard Hitzfeld sing before!
Hitzfeld was clearly serious. He closed his eyes, cleared his throat, and began to sing:
"When I was a child...my mother told me..."
"The sea... is my hometown..."
"Born...on the beach..."
"Growing up in the sea..."
The voice is clear and childish.
The singing voice gradually drifted away in the sea breeze.
The woman squinted her eyes and listened silently, feeling silently.
Unconsciously, I became a little crazy.
I slept...

Chapter 3 Gossip
Hitzfeld didn't know if it was an illusion, but ever since she accompanied Xia Yibing to the beach and said some of her innermost thoughts to her, she seemed to be clinging to her even more.
She even wanted to accompany her to the toilet... She was simply another Ashley, even crazier than Ashley when she was the most attached to her.
"You turned into a cat, right?"
After coming out of the bathroom again and finding the woman leaning against the door and eavesdropping, Hitzfeld couldn't stand it anymore: "Do you like watching humans go into the bathroom?"
"I'm worried about you." Xia Yibing said frankly, "Well... after I came back, I thought about that song carefully, and I always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the lyrics."
"Are you worried that I'll fall in?" Hitzfeld was completely confused. "And the lyrics? What's wrong with the lyrics?"
She just wanted to sing some childhood songs from her memory on a whim. It wasn't good enough to sing to her, but she was worrying about the lyrics?
"It's about 'growing up by the sea' and 'growing up in the sea'..." Xia Yibing treated the matter very seriously. As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to gesture to the girl: "Can't you see? This person is obviously not a human?"
I think you have an occupational disease...
Hitzfeld was speechless and too lazy to pay attention to her. He went to cook in his slippers.
Going to the beach took a lot of time, and it was almost time for Ashley to come back from school in the afternoon, and she had to prepare dinner for the whole family.
As for the lyrics issue, well, I have indeed heard of over-interpretation of this song in my previous life... Based on the analysis of the lyrics, I feel that no matter what the creature singing in the song is, it doesn't sound very human.
The answer that was closest to the "so-called truth" was to combine this song with "deep divers" and "fish people". At that time, she was obsessed and believed some of these claims. Then when she listened to this song again, the pure child's voice suddenly seemed extremely terrifying, and she was so scared that she couldn't sleep all night.
Of course, now it seems like nonsense. She is more inclined to think that the description in the lyrics is a kind of fantasy, an exaggeration. It should be a celebration of dreams that is detached from reality and poetic. Insisting on combining it with reality is asking for trouble and is also disrespectful to the lyricist.
"Aisun!" However, Xia Yibing didn't know the background of the song. In her opinion, the lyrics were problematic.
Not only is there a problem, but it is a big problem. She must force the other party to find out where he heard this song today.
So she stood beside him when Hitzfeld washed rice, she stood beside him when Hitzfeld picked vegetables, and she still stood beside him when Hitzfeld cut meat.
She didn't say anything either, knowing that talking too much would annoy the girl.
But she just stood there, with her arms folded across her chest and the corners of her lips turned down, as if to say, "I'm really doing this for your own good. This matter is very important, and you need to tell me as soon as possible."
Hitzfeld would look up and make eye contact with her every once in a while. To be honest, she was quite unhappy at first, but as they kept looking at each other, she suddenly found it very funny.
Isn't it? Xia's behavior... looks exactly like the domestic cat in her memory.
"If you have nothing to do, come and help me wash the knife." She put the meat knife aside and turned to fiddle with other ingredients.
She was finally willing to talk and communicate with this side. Xia Yibing seemed to be cheered up. She picked up the knife and rinsed it with hot water to prevent the bacteria from the raw meat from remaining on it.
"Aisun?" Then she called the girl tentatively, put down the knife and moved closer, "Aisun?"
"Just tell me what you want to know."
"You can guess... about that song..."
"I can guarantee you everything that there is nothing wrong with that song." Hitzfeld turned around and rolled his eyes at her. "It wasn't written by a cultist, and it doesn't talk about any evil rituals. It's just a simple ballad, a poem."
From her expression, it was clear that Xia Yibing still didn't quite believe it. She added, "There are many songs praising the mythological era, and there are even more exaggerated descriptions in them. Why don't you doubt them?"
"Of course, because I know where they came from." Xia Yibing answered without hesitation.
Compared to those familiar folk tunes, the song the girl sang was one she had never heard of before, which made her alert.
"Ow!"
"Lily's strength has increased again..."
Ashley and Lily's cheerful noises could be heard outside the window. Hitzfeld simply waved at the woman and said, "Go open the door for them."
Xia Yibing had no choice but to change her shoes and go out. When she reached the iron gate, she happened to see Ashley and Lily standing outside.
She opened the door for them and asked casually, "How's school going?"
"That's good." Ashley nodded seriously, "My classmates can't beat me."
Xia Yibing nodded out of inertia at first, but then she realized it on the way back with her companions - they were sending this girl to Muguo Public School, not to let her fight, right?
Without any hesitation, the woman returned to the kitchen and filed a complaint against the hostess.
So at dinner time, Ashley was severely criticized by Hitzfeld, and her privilege of unlimited servings of rice was deprived. She was only allowed to eat two more bowls at most.
After dinner, Hitzfeld cleaned up and washed the dishes. Xia Yibing watched her swaying figure gradually fade away, and while stroking Lily's dog head, he asked Ashley: "Why did you fight with your classmates?"
What puzzled her was not the fighting itself - it was normal for children to fight, but this kind of thing usually happened when they just got to know each other. This semester had already started for more than a month, and they had already become familiar with each other, so why did they suddenly fight at this time?
Perhaps some sharp conflict had suddenly broken out, and because of her job, she wanted to ask.
Then educate Ashley properly. She is a civilized person now. She should solve problems in a civilized way and not bully others at every turn.
"Because they said bad things about Heath." Ashley's Sara language was already quite fluent, and Xia Yibing could clearly hear her resentment from her words, "They said Heath was a whore and gave birth to me with a wild man."
"...You fought well." Xia Yibing paused, "You didn't eat enough just now, did you? I'll get you another bowl of rice?"
Ashley was stunned and nodded frantically.
So, when Hitzfeld finished cleaning up and returned to the living room, what he saw was Ashley holding the bowl, eating with oil dripping from her mouth, while chatting with Xia Yibing about school anecdotes with "rich body language".
When the action was intense, she didn't care about the rice grains in her mouth. Whenever this happened, Lily would raise her head to eat the fallen food with her tongue rolled up, then stare at the bowl in Ashley's hand, her tail sweeping back and forth on the carpet.
So I just washed away my loneliness?
After stroking his hands for a while, Hitzfeld didn't intend to go up and say anything more to the two men and the dog. He turned around and went upstairs.
"Aisun!" Xia Yibing quickly ran over to intercept her and whispered in her ear: "Ashley said the fight was because someone was defaming your reputation..."
Hitzfeld was surprised at first, then frowned.
But it was only for a moment, and she quickly calmed down: "Maybe the children are ignorant."
Most people with a little knowledge know that she can't possibly have a daughter that big... and that strong. Even if this rumor were really spread, few would believe it. Only those children... who don't know how they were born, would make wild guesses.
"I suspect it was the adults at home who taught me this." Xia Yibing didn't intend to let the matter go. "I'll contact Sheriff Rand later... These lowly people deserve a beating."
"Then you have to ask clearly." Hitzfeld paused and warned, "Who is a good person and who is a pariah... By the way, I don't recommend you to take action."
Trying to silence the lower class with force is usually counterproductive. When those people start to gossip, even Erwin dares to criticize them secretly. If she cares about this, she will not be able to sleep every Friday.
"Then find an excuse to pay the fine." Xia Yibing sneered.
Hitzfeld’s reminder was correct...but she knew too well how to deal with those people. Compared to being beaten up, the fine would indeed make them more uncomfortable.
After discussing the relevant details with Ashley in detail, Hitzfeld collected the dishes she had used and put them in water to soak. Suddenly, he felt a little lazy and didn't want to wash them.
Xia Yibing saw it and went over to help. Now it was her turn to work, while Hitzfeld watched with his arms folded.
"When did you and Ashley become so close?"
The girl suddenly asked.
