Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

Chapter 273 Warm-hearted U-chan

(I went to eat barbecue with my sister tonight. I waited in line for almost two hours and couldn’t finish writing. I’ll post a thousand words first. I’ll take a shower and continue writing.)

"Wow... delicious..." U-chan drank the milky white liquid in the cup and licked her lips with satisfaction. Although she wanted to buy another cup, she gave up the idea because she was short of money.

As soon as she put down the paper cup, U-chan found that the people around her were all crowded to the railing, waving and shouting: "Your Highness! Your Highness..."

The old Sarkaz woman seemed a little reserved, standing there with the basket.

Curious U turned around and saw that Demon King Theresa, who had only existed in the long shot, was now separated from her by a railing, interacting with the crowd outside the railing with a smile on her face.

Being in such close contact with a big shot of the Sarkaz made U-chan's brain start to work at high speed, thinking about what she should say at this time.

"......Your Highness, I have some pack animal milk here, would you like to try it? This young lady said it tastes good after trying it......" The old woman who had been silent for a long time seemed to have experienced a psychological struggle, and she said these words haltingly.

"Thank you, how much? I want two cups." Theresa wanted to give a cup to Ascalon who had been busy all morning. She touched her pocket and was slightly stunned. She didn't have any money on her today.

"How can I accept money from Your Highness? This is a gift from me to you..." The old woman shook her head and refused.

"Askalon, do you have any money on you?" Theresa leaned close to Askalon's ear and whispered for help.

"Leave it to me, Your Highness." Askalon reached into his waist bag and pulled out a hundred-yuan Longmen coin.

"Your Highness, I can't take your money. It's just two cups of beast of burden milk..." The old woman handed the two cups of beast of burden milk to Theresa and did not take the Longmen coin.

"Just accept it. Even I have to pay for things..." Theresa gently took the old woman's hand and stuffed the money into her palm.

"Then I'll give you change..." The old woman took the money reluctantly and lowered her head to find change in the crumpled change.

"No need. Just consider the remaining money as my treat for everyone. If it's not enough, I'll give you more." Theresa made a suggestion, hoping to help the old woman sell all the camel milk quickly and return home earlier.

"Thank you, thank you Your Highness..." A few tears flowed from the old woman's cloudy eyes, and she turned her head and wiped them away secretly.

As the old woman's workload increased, the usually warm-hearted U-chan temporarily left the camera and offered to help, pouring milk and walking back and forth to pass it to the enthusiastic people around her.

"Thank you grandma, Roumo has never had such delicious milk before..." The little Sarkaz girl held the paper cup in both hands, with a circle of camel milk on the outside of her little mouth.

"Haha... drink more if you like. Drinking more milk can help you grow taller and stronger." The old woman smiled happily. The wrinkles on her face were squeezed into a ball, and her eyes could not be seen.

The little girl's parents stood behind her and bowed to express their gratitude to the busy U-chan and the old woman.

"She's a very good kid. Is she a reporter?" Theresa glanced at the camera that was still filming, then looked at U-chan's cute and lively clothes, and felt that she was a little different from a traditional reporter.

Under Theresa's strong appeal, all the camel milk in the old woman's basket was quickly sold out.

Most people chose to pay themselves, and some even secretly put a few large-denomination bills among the small-denomination bills and stuffed them into the old woman's hands.

They are all kind-hearted people with some social anxiety. Many times, they just need someone to take the initiative and they will not be stingy with their little kindness.

The old woman specially left a cup of sweetened camel milk for U to thank her for her help.

"Grandma, can I take a photo with you?" U-chan took the old woman's skinny hand and invited her to take a photo.

The old woman moved a little stiffly. She carefully straightened her wrinkled collar and cuffs, tried her best to straighten her back, and stood next to U-chan with a smile on her face.

"Click!" The crisp sound of shutter flashed by, recording the beautiful and warm scene in the savings card.

U-chan removed the lens from the tripod and showed the old woman the photo on the screen.

The old woman was a little presbyopic and squinted her eyes, trying hard to see the photo of the two of them clearly.

"It's a very clear photo, but I always feel like something is missing..." U-chan touched her chin, thought for a moment, and seemed to understand something.

There are not only himself and the old lady in the picture, but only the two of them are actually smiling towards the camera. There is also a little girl named Roumo making a happy gesture in the corner of the camera.

"Everyone come together. The more people there are, the more memorable it will be." U-chan called on the people around her to gather together, and then mustered up the courage to invite Theresa.

"Ms. Theresa, can I include you in the camera?" U-chan felt that her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible. Her eyes were wandering and she didn't dare to look directly into those kind and gentle eyes.

"Of course, but I want a developed photo to be placed on my desk." Theresa nodded with a smile, and took Ascalon's hand, very intimately.

The father of the little girl Roumo lifted her up and put her on his neck, and her mother raised her hand and gently supported Roumo's back to prevent her from falling.

U set up the lens, configured the time-lapse photography, then hurried back to her position and struck a pose.

"Three! Two! One!"

"Click!" The shutter sounded and the picture was frozen.

Even though we are all strangers who met by chance, at this moment, we have left precious memories with each other.

......

"Goodbye, little girl. Come visit grandma when you have time..." The old woman left her home and slowly disappeared into the crowd carrying an empty basket.

U looked down at the piece of paper with the old woman's home address, and out of professionalism, she took a photo with her camera as a backup.

"Ms. Theresa, thank you for your help." U turned around and bowed to Theresa to express her gratitude. She knew that without Theresa's help, it would be difficult for her to help the old lady on her own.

I also took the opportunity to take some very precious photos.

"I didn't help much. It was your kindness that infected others." Theresa attributed everything that had just happened to U-chan's performance.

"It's nothing. This is what I should do..." U-chan waved her hands hurriedly, not daring to take the credit.

"I still don't know how to address you, Miss Reporter?"

“You can just call me Xiao U. I’m a broadcaster from Yan Country. I came to Kazdel from Longmen to shoot a short documentary.”

"I see. If there's anything you want to know, I can answer it for you, but it has to be in my free time after work."
