"Huff huff."
"Hello hello"
"Please please wait a moment."
A trace of admiration flashed in Suzuki's eyes.
He stopped in place.
He turned around and saw the same little girl with patches on her clothes and a young age.
At this time, the little girl was only less than twenty meters away from him.
Seeing him stop in place, her face still had a bit of joy, this time she did not hesitate anymore, and ran towards him with her small short legs.
Soon, the little girl came to the front of Suzuki, three meters away.
When she got closer, she could feel her smallness more in comparison with the height of the two.
The little girl had some shyness and timidity on her face, she raised her head carefully and looked at Suzuki, and asked softly:
"Excuse me, are you going to the Tree of Knowledge?"
Suzuki lowered his head slightly, looked at the timid little girl standing in front of him, heard her hard-earned courage to ask, and showed a gentle and serious smile on his face:
"Ah, yes."
"I'm going to the Tree of Knowledge."
"Kid, do you know the way?"
In fact, he could find the Tree of Knowledge with his eyes closed, but Suzuki would not be stingy to give some courage as encouragement to those who dared to try.
The little girl's face was obviously happy, she nodded her little head as soon as she heard Suzuki's answer, showed a bit of cute smile, and answered with a crisp voice, with a serious expression:
"I know!"
"I know the way, sir!"
"I, I'm very familiar with that place."
"Can I take you there?"
"Ah, don't worry, it won't cost a lot of money."
"I just need fifty berries."
"And then, and then"
"Um, if you want to go inside the Tree of Knowledge to visit, I can also take you in."
As she said this, the little girl's face had some shame and tangled expressions, her two little hands couldn't help but start to rub the corners of her clothes.
She didn't know if fifty berries would work, but she really couldn't go any lower.
She was still very young, and fifty berries were almost enough to eat.
But anyway, she had to protect the things in the library!
So, she plucked up the courage and continued to say seriously:
"Just just don't make a lot of noise, don't disturb those teachers."
"And then. and then don't eat anything inside, don't take the books away, don't flip the books too hard"
"Don't."
As she said, the little girl's voice became smaller and smaller, and she couldn't help but lower her little head again.
It seemed that she also felt that her requirements were too much.
However, she still braced herself and raised her head again and said to Suzuki some words that she might think were the last remedy:
"That. it's free to visit."
"I just need the fifty berries for the guide fee."
Suzuki's eyes showed a hint of smile, looking at the little girl who was still waiting for an answer, her eyes still had some hidden expectations.
He gave his answer in a gentle tone:
"Is that so?"
"Thank you, then. Please take me there."
The little girl's face showed a happy smile, she might not have expected that this foreign tourist gentleman was so easy to talk to.
He heard her so many requests, and still agreed to her readily.
You know, she hasn't eaten enough for two days.
With these fifty berries, she can go and buy some bread later.
She had a big smile on her face, looked at Suzuki with her innocent and clear eyes, and her young and crisp voice sounded again:
"Okay, sir!"
Towards the Tree of Knowledge not far away, this time the little girl did not sneak behind Suzuki, but walked side by side with him.
Relying on the shelter of the canopy, the warm sun in winter only sprinkled a little bit on the ground.
The fine breeze blew their clothes, and gradually left the bustling street.
"By the way, what's your name?"
"I'm Suzuki."
Walking on the road, Suzuki asked the little girl casually as he walked.
The little girl walked beside Suzuki, tilting her head and looking at Suzuki with her big clear eyes.
She had a serious expression on her face, but her voice was a little small and answered:
"Mr. Suzuki."
"I'm Robin."
"Nico Robin."
Suzuki was not surprised, he had long thought that this little girl was like Robin.
Although she was very different from the future sister-in-law, the young Robin was indeed a bit unconfident.
Whether it was her mother Nico Olvia who left her to pursue the true history, or the fact that she was fostered in her uncle's house from the age of two or three, both made Robin have a very unhappy life when she was young.
But, Suzuki didn't expect that the young Robin would be a guide on Ohara Island.
Was it because she was too poor in her uncle's house, so she had to go out and earn money to buy food?
And she followed him for so long behind him, was she afraid to compete with others on the pier?
"Don't be so polite, little Robin."
"Just call me Suzuki brother, I'm not much older than you."
Suzuki smiled gently at the young Robin, and then continued:
"As for me, I'll be eleven years old in a few months."
"Little Robin, how old are you this year?"
Robin was young, but she had been soaking in the Tree of Knowledge and learning from the scholars since she was a child. She didn't calculate her age with her fingers like many children.
Instead, she quickly replied to Suzuki:
"Mr. Suzuki."
"Bang~"
Suzuki walked and walked, and suddenly knocked on Robin's head mercilessly.
These children were all very disobedient, and Mike was the same, they had to knock on their heads to know the pain.
"Call me Suzuki brother!"
Robin covered her head with both hands, her face was full of grievances, and there were even a little tears in her big clear eyes.
But her heart was surprisingly not annoyed by this, and even felt a little joy for Suzuki's inexplicable kindness.
Robin raised her cute little face, her eyes were a little shy, and she whispered in a voice that was so faint that she couldn't hear it if she didn't listen carefully:
"Okay, okay, Suzuki brother."
"."
Suzuki was speechless.
This little girl and little boy were both children, but they were really different.
Why was she shy, instead of holding her breath and being indignant or knowing how to change her mouth directly?
Did I just hit your head not hurt?
Suzuki didn't care too much about these details, his face still showed a satisfied expression, and said to Robin:
"Not bad, this is also fine."
"How old are you, little Robin?"
The young Robin suddenly remembered that Suzuki had asked her age before, and she hadn't had time to answer yet.
So she immediately answered:
"I'm five years old this year, Suzuki brother."
Suzuki heard Robin's answer, and also silently calculated in his heart.
The current time was already February of the Sea Round Calendar 1497, and the future Robin was eight years old when Ohara was destroyed.
And Ohara was destroyed in the Sea Round Calendar 1500.
Then Robin was indeed about five years old now.
Then Suzuki continued to chat with Robin about some miscellaneous things on the road.
What was the best scenery in Ohara, which scholar in Ohara was the most powerful, and so on.
It didn't take long for the two of them to walk to the Tree of Knowledge like this.
