I have a lot of wives

"Yes, it is."

The girl whose name was called by the magistrate subconsciously tightened her body.

She felt very nervous, very nervous.It's like a star chaser who talks to a star.

The usual Kasumigaoka thinks he is courageous.It's okay to talk and do things, or to stun others.Even facing people who once thought they liked it.

Shiyu Xiazhiqiu felt that he could deal with everything calmly.

But now, she knew she was wrong.At least in front of the magistrate, she was like the most innocent little girl, terribly shy.

"I still remember you."

The magistrate said to her: "Very confident girl, came the other day."

He paused when he said that, seeming to be juggling something, and then said: "Are you doing things here now?"

"Yes……"

Elder Sister Cockscomb thought of answering subconsciously, but before that, Xia Zhiqiu cut off her words:

"--No!" She said nervously, subconsciously not wanting the magistrate to misunderstand that she has too much to do with this.

After answering this subconsciously, Xia Zhiqiu felt a little embarrassed again.

In any case, she was fighting with these women just now.

But immediately, seeing the women staring at him with hatred, Xia Zhiqiu quickly realized that his actions could not be more appropriate.

"well done."

A simple compliment from the magistrate made Xia Zhiqiu's complexion red, as if he was drunk.

"Feel, thank you..."

"I heard you want to find me for something?" the magistrate then asked.

"yes, I--"

"—I'm not free now." The magistrate said what he expected, making Xia Zhiqiu a little disappointed.But then: "When I have time, I will tell you."

"Yes, sir." Xia Zhiqiu replied, "I will wait."

"Ok."

After saying this to Xia Zhiqiu, the magistrate turned and left.

Next, Shiyu Xiazhiqiu watched the trial of the prisoners.

Those who participated in the riot last night did not run, and their heads were chopped off by the magistrate.Then there is no need for the magistrate to speak.Those who were attacked, or those who wanted to participate in the riot but did not dare, or those who were a step slower, have been busy doing it.

They sharpened wooden sticks, raised their heads, and expanded the woodland with these "trophies" and deterrent props.Then incinerate the headless body.Xia Zhiqiu joined them and participated.

It is amazing that when looking at that piece of head woodland once again, Xia Zhiqiu didn't feel scared or nauseated, but felt relieved, even relieved.

Beside her, Sister Cockscomb said to her in a complicated tone:

"You are considered to have joined."

Xia Zhiqiu just nodded, and did not reply.Although in fact, she never thought of doing this.

...

The storm subsided.The next day, the sun rises as usual, and the dim sun shines through a heavy cloud.Xiazhiqiu's life has also returned to "daily life".

She is still a handyman in the "shop".Responsible for various chores including washing and cooking every day.The only thing worth mentioning is that her treatment has been slightly improved.From two mushy meals a day, to three brown bread meals a day, and occasionally a little dried meat.

The cockscomb elder sister no longer desperately arranged her to do those things, as if she could never finish her work.Xia Zhiqiu privately felt that this might be because of what the magistrate said to him before.

Although some women said: the magistrate was just polite, maybe he forgot Xia Zhiqiu in a blink of an eye.But Cockscomb doesn't think so.

"They are jealous of you."

When she commented on other women, her tone was slightly disdainful: "Those women always feel that even the magistrate is a man. Since they are men, they need women.

They all dream of climbing onto the magistrate's bed.But the magistrate didn't even look at them.

The magistrates who dismissed them were "interested" in you.

Humph..."

At the end, she snorted twice, with endless sarcasm in her voice.

"They don't want to think about how the magistrate might be interested in them. If I were a magistrate, I would choose you too."

When she said the last words, her tone was filled with melancholy and disappointment.

This makes Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu a little concerned.

"you……"

She hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but said, "Do you like magistrates?"

"like?"

The cockscomb elder sister shook her head: "How is it possible."

She said: "How do I deserve to like it? It's just an instinct to be a woman... Don't worry, I'm much more rational than those women. I won't be troubled with you because of this kind of thing."

"That, I..."

Shiyu Xiazhiqiu didn't know what to say.

But before that, the cockscomb woman had already turned and left.

Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu looked at her back, always looking a little bleak and lost.The mood is terrible, even worse than when he faced those crazy invaders or cremated his dead companions.

How could I not like it.

Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu thought.

Such a strong, good, and righteous man.How could you not like it?

After several days of getting along, Xia Zhiqiu certainly understood that this woman is not a bad person in the traditional sense.Even stronger than most people in the camp, they also have a bottom line.

But this didn't prevent her from falling in love with someone she shouldn't be.
