Chapter 900 You're Playing with Fire
Sue finally arrived at the Hearth House camp in Whitesong Town, where a familiar figure was collecting supplies.
Linni: "Fimini? You're back! Look who's here."
Upon hearing Linni's voice, Fimini quickly put away what he was holding, turned around, and saw the girl. His eyes immediately lit up.
"Um, good morning... Sue." Although her face was so red it was almost steaming, Fimini still bravely greeted Sue, "Paymon is free, hello, welcome to visit."
Sue watched as Fimini blushed as he greeted everyone, and thought he was still as shy, earnest, and adorable as ever.
If she suddenly went over and hugged Fimini right now, wouldn't the super shy Fimini blush so much it would explode?
For some reason, Fimi felt inexplicably cold.
"It's almost time for lunch. I remember you told me, Fimini, that you wanted to cook seafood soup for Su and the others to try. How about we have it now?"
“Hmm…yes,” Fimini responded, then took out some more food from the supplies. “Well then, everyone sit down and wait, it’ll be quick.”
"Okay!" Su pulled her friend to sit down at the table. "Looking forward to Fimini's cooking."
Linni's words inadvertently stopped someone's sudden bad idea and saved Fimini.
Before long, Fimini and Linni brought the prepared food to the table.
"Wow, it smells amazing!" Paimon exclaimed, looking at the Fontainebleau-style seafood hot pot on the table. "I never knew Fimini's cooking was so good!"
Sue: "It seems Lynette is good at desserts, and Fimini is good at main courses. That's great, the two siblings are a perfect match!"
Linni pointed to herself, "What about me? Su tasted my cooking last time, please don't fire me."
Su coldly declared, "Take your super sour fruit juice gummies and leave the Cute & Adorable Foodie Team!"
Linni clutched her chest, "Su, you're so cruel! You actually kicked me out of the Cute & Adorable Foodie Team!"
Even... even though I've reformed and made delicious and sweet strawberry-filled gummies especially for you?
Linni turned her hand over from her heart, and a handful of gummy candies wrapped in pink candy wrappers appeared in her previously empty palm.
Su took the gummy candies and distributed a few to everyone present. "Keep me in the group for observation, and see how I behave! Time to eat!"
Fimini's specialty dish, "Seagulls Perching," is a Fontaine-style seafood stew.
The fish, shrimp, and shellfish in the pot were all cleaned very thoroughly, without a single grain of sand, and the taste and cooking time were just right.
Paimon loved the dish. "It's delicious, it's delicious!"
Kong Kua said, "The soup is fresh and delicious, tender and chewy, it's very tasty."
Su: "The shrimp shells have all been removed, making them so easy to eat. As expected of Fimi, so thoughtful and considerate."
Surrounded by compliments, Fimi couldn't help but lower her head shyly, "I'm glad everyone likes it, thank you for the compliments..."
After the group finished eating, the traveler team helped clear the plates, and Fimini quietly put the untouched bread into his backpack.
“Fimini,” Linni, who had been secretly observing him, immediately asked, “What are you going to do with this? Didn’t you eat enough?”
Fimini's eyes darted around. "I... I get hungry at night, so I wanted an extra portion. Maybe it's because I'm still growing..."
Upon hearing this, Su immediately rummaged through her backpack and pulled out some snacks and fruit, handing them to him. "It's too dry to just eat bread as an extra meal. Here, this is my little return gift."
Not wanting to lie to Sue, Fimi lowered her head with some guilt and remained silent.
“Fimini,” Linni said seriously, “you’re different from me; you’re not used to lying. What happened? Do you have to keep it from me too?”
Sensing the sudden change in situation and atmosphere, the three members of the traveler team, who were not good at handling family disputes, stood aside.
Paimon lowered his voice, "Um... given the current situation, wouldn't it be better if we avoided this?"
Sue: "No way, Linni looks really angry. What if he gets really angry and hits Fimini!"
Sora: "Things shouldn't get that bad, right? Hmm, it seems like Linni heard something..."
After hesitating for a while, Fimini still led Linni and the traveler's team to a secluded spot in White Song Town, where he set up a small, hidden campsite.
Upon seeing Fimini appear, a little girl with deep pink hair skipped and hopped out of the camp. "Welcome back! Hmm, there seem to be more people today. Have any new children joined us?"
Hearing her words, Linnie's heart sank, but she controlled her expression and smiled, "Hello, I'm Linnie, I grew up in the Hearth House. May I ask who you are...?"
The girl with deep pink hair said in a friendly manner, "Hello, I'm also a child of the Hearth House, just like you. As for my name, you can just call me Clementine."
The traveler team exchanged surprised glances.
Linnie couldn't possibly not recognize the children of the Hearth House, so this child in front of her must be...!
In a small corner not far away, a small meeting is taking place.
Sue clenched her fist excitedly, "She's definitely the ghost child the [servant] mentioned!"
He sighed, "The servant must have meant 'a child that doesn't exist.'"
Paimon rubbed his arms. "Anyway, that child...?"
Linnie frowned. "I've never seen her, and I'm pretty sure her name isn't on the Hearth House's personnel list."
Linni looked at Fimini, trying to suppress her anger and worry. "Fimini, did you find her and hide her? Do you know what you're doing?!"
This is protecting the people the father searched!
If Father finds out about this, everyone who knows will be punished! In a more serious case, Fimini will be labeled a traitor!
And the fireplace house and the father...
Betrayal of any kind is unacceptable.
Fimini lowered her head. "I...I can't just hand her over like that."
Fimini said he had a vague feeling that there was a shadowy child in the house a long time ago.
The child warned Fimini several times, and each time Fimini saved the lives of his family members who were in danger.
“Even if she really is a ghost wandering in the House of Hearths…” Fimini glanced at Clementine not far away and said with a rare firmness, “I still think she is our family.”
"I can't just arrest and deal with her without even understanding what happened."
family……
Linni fell silent.
For these people living in fireplace homes, nothing is more important than family.
But disobeying his father's orders...
Linni is in the midst of a battle between heaven and man.
"Ultimately, this is Fontaine's territory," Su suddenly said.
Linni and Fimini looked at the girl in confusion, "Su?"
Sue: "The private rules of a servant can't supersede the laws of the land, can they?"
Don't tell me this is some internal affair of the House of Hearths. On Fryna and Navelette's territory, to intend to arbitrarily dispose of a little girl, [Servant] you know you've broken the law.
