Allen yawned and walked out of the room, finding an unexpected person appearing in front of him.
"Are you... are you allowed to come out?"
He looked at the girl in disbelief. The woman imprisoned there seemed to have never been allowed to leave. How could this girl come here?
The girl nodded, and then actually spoke, "I'm leaving this island."
The boy opened his mouth wide. This iceberg-like girl actually wanted to leave the island? Was she let go by the pirates? Would a pirate be so kind?
"Are they going to move you somewhere else?"
The girl shook her head and said, "No, the pirates will never control me again."
Allen suddenly became excited and asked, "How did you do it?"
"Barnett wants to take me away, and the pirates can't stop him."
"Barnett? Who is he?"
The girl shook her head.
Although it was baffling, Allen asked impatiently, "Can he take me and my companions together?"
This time the girl lowered her head, as if she didn't dare to look at Allen.
"Okay, I get it."
A huge sense of disappointment came over, and Allen felt very uncomfortable.
"But congratulations, you are finally out of this devil's cave."
The girl looked up at Allen in slight surprise and said, "Thank you!"
She seemed to think carefully for a moment, then raised her little fists and said, "I will rescue you later."
"Uh... thank you." I always felt something was weird.
Then the girl's face turned slightly red, and she asked hesitantly, "What's your name?"
Speaking of which, after knowing each other for such a long time, they have never asked each other's names, uh... if this can be considered acquaintance.
The boy immediately replied, "Allen, Allen Alfred. Where's yours?"
"Me?" The girl was speechless for a moment, and then she said sadly for a while, "I don't have a name."
Is there anyone else who doesn't have a name? Could it be that she was kidnapped by pirates and imprisoned on this island before she could remember? Allen scratched his head. "It's quite difficult to deal with it without a name. When you return to the normal world in the future, it will be difficult to move without a name."
He suggested. "Let me give you a name."
The girl blinked her big eyes. Although the expression on her face seemed a bit cold to Allen, her eyes showed obvious enthusiasm. Obviously, she was very willing to Allen help her name it.
Allen clasped his hands on his chest, closed his eyes and began to think about it, what would be a good name? "Mary? No, it's too ordinary."
"Carol? I always feel like I don't fit in with you."
The boy kept talking to himself, worrying about what name he should give, while the girl looked at him quietly without blinking.
"Ha! Now that I've figured it out, how about I call you 'Christo'?"
"Christo?"
"Yes, Christo, which means crystal ice and transparent soul."
Allen seems to have forgotten his current situation and is proud of being able to come up with such a good name.
"Okay, from now on my name will be Christo."
The girl——Christo nodded and accepted the name given to him by Allen.
She suddenly thought of something and took off the bracelet on her left wrist, "This is for you!"
"This is what a girl wears. I..." Allen wanted to say this, but he swallowed it back because Christo's eyes were very determined.
"Uh... Okay, thank you." He took the bracelet and put it on his left hand.
"I'll give you a gift in return."
Allen took off the Pisces pendant hanging around his neck, gently broke the two fish apart, and handed one of them to Christo.
"I heard from my mother that this pendant has been blessed by the priest. If you find a string and wear it around your neck, it will definitely keep you safe."
Christo stared closely into Allen's eyes, and the two looked at each other. Just when the boy looked a little embarrassed by her, she grabbed the pendant and quickly put it away, as if she was afraid that Allen would regret it.
"I will definitely rescue you." She repeated again.
"Thank you, but you have to promise me that you will be safe first."
While the two were talking, a man wrapped in a black cloak appeared not far away and shouted to this side, "Little girl, we have to go."
Christo reluctantly said goodbye to Allen: "I'm leaving, please take care of yourself." Then he turned and walked towards the man.
"That's the one who's going to take her out of the pirate den, right? I'm so envious."
Allen thought in his heart that although he didn't know whether the other person was good or bad, the girl's future, no matter how bad it was, would still be better than staying in this pirate's den. He had gradually understood what the place where the girl was previously imprisoned was used for.
Just when he was thinking about this and that, Christo suddenly turned around and smiled at him.
"Uh... it turns out that she can smile too, and she's really pretty." Allen stared blankly at the direction the girl was leaving. It was incredible to him that the other party said so many things today.
He put his hands together like a trumpet and shouted to the girl, "You should take more care!"
Christo followed Barnett to the ship.
Soon, the ship slowly left the harbor and headed towards the silverless sea.
"Is it true that we can't take him with us?" She raised her head and asked again.
Barnett also shook his head again. After this girl learned that he could take her out of the pirate den, the first thing she asked him was whether she could bring a boy with her.
"I have told you many times, he is not of the same kind as us. I will not take a mortal away." The wizard was a little impatient. The little girl in front of him has been asking this question since yesterday. Christo did not continue to ask questions today. They are already on the boat and getting further and further away from the island. There is no point in asking anymore.
Seeing the obvious disappointment in her eyes, Barnett said, "Sooner or later, you will realize that you, me, and the brothers and sisters who are about to accept you are different from ordinary people. We will control incredibly powerful power, and ordinary people, including that kid, are only mortals after all."
"Little girl, when that time comes and you think about your current thoughts again, you will realize how naive and ridiculous you were back then."
Chris did not refute, but said, "I have a name now, it's Christo."
"Did you do it yourself? It doesn't matter, it saves me a lot of thinking."
The girl looked at the dock that was getting away. "I will come here again."
Barnett chuckled, "Do you want revenge? Yes, after all, you have been imprisoned for so many years."
Then he said with a bit of disdain, "When you master the power, all the mortals on this island will become playthings in your hands, so work hard."
Thanks to the book friend "Zhazu Xiaowang" for the reward.
