Time in a collapsing world

She found a dry, thin piece of wood, and used a wooden stick to make a small hole in the center. Then Alicia put the wooden stick against the small hole, sat on the ground, and stepped on the wooden block with her feet to prevent it from moving. After that, he concentrated on rubbing the wooden stick, and it looked really impressive.

At this time, Li Ye had already cleaned the pigeon meat, and in order to wash away the blood, he even ran back to the stream.

Looking at Alicia's hands that were constantly rubbing together, and then looking at the thin smoke that was faintly coming out of the bottom of the stick, Li looked at her with admiration.

"It's on fire!"

Not long after, Alicia's surprised voice came over, and then she became panicked again, "Ah... sawdust, sawdust!"

A gust of wind blew by, blowing all the fire starters that Alicia had worked so hard to prepare all over the sky.

Seeing that the small flame that had finally been lit was about to be extinguished, Alicia suddenly became anxious.

Li walked over and protected the flames with both hands. For some reason, between his palms, the small flames that were about to go out at any time actually became stable.

Not only was it stable, Alicia saw that the tiny flame was growing little by little, gradually turning into a standard flame size for cooking.

"Amazing!"

Alicia exclaimed, "Li, how did you do it? Can you teach me?"

"..."

Sorry, he can't teach.

Li shook his head. He just had the idea of ​​making the flame bigger, but to his surprise, his dream came true.

"Hmph, stingy."

Alicia murmured, and then turned her attention to dinner. The sky was getting dark, and her stomach was growling.

If you don't stop it, it will seriously affect your image as a lady!

Thinking of this, Alicia glanced at Li secretly and was slightly relieved when she saw that he didn't pay attention to her stomach growling.

"I'll cook!"

Alicia asked Ying again, and the process of making the fire was completed with Li's help. Alicia had no choice but to take over the cooking job. She was eager to complete a task on her own.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you."

This time Li agreed without even thinking.

"Li, you don't know how to cook?"

Alicia discovered this.

"will not."

Li admits it directly, after all, it is not a shameful thing.

"Humph, then it will be my turn to really show off my skills~?"

Alicia is full of confidence.

……

Alicia, who had mastered some cooking skills, still managed to cook dinner, grilled pigeon meat, grilled shrimp, grilled fish fry...etc., everything else was fine, but why was this fish the only one that was burnt to a crisp? ?

Li looked at Alicia in confusion, and the other person was unusually shy, "Well... I don't know why. It's obviously the same heat, why is it that only the fish turned out like this?"

"...Don't look at me, I don't know either."

Li couldn't give her an answer as a bystander, after all, he didn't know anything about cooking right now.

"Forget it, throw it away, it's just this little meat anyway..."

Li glanced at Alicia's left hand inadvertently, and found that part of her ring finger was black, and there were several bulging blisters.

"...You were burned?"

Li frowned and grabbed Alicia's left hand.

"It was discovered..."

Alicia looked at Li, who looked obviously worried about her, and shook her head, "It's okay, it's only a little burned, just bandage it a little and it'll be fine~?"

"……Wait me a moment."

Saying that, Li didn't give Alicia a chance to react, and gently touched her injured finger. If even the flames could grow bigger according to his thoughts, then it should be possible to treat this injury as well. Can it be done?

Once, twice... I don't know how many times I touched her, but Alicia's fingers finally changed for the better.

The burned area recovered, the blisters disappeared, and the finger looked completely unchanged from the original one.

"Okay."

Li let go of Alicia's hand, but suddenly she felt something was wrong, it was too quiet, so she looked up and saw Alicia's face was slightly red, and she had been staring at her face silently, until Li and She looked at each other and then came back to her senses.

"Li, you really look like a character in "Snow White" that Celia's mother told me about before~?"

"Who?"

Li had never heard of this story, but asked anyway.

"Prince Charming~?"

Alicia said happily.

"Where does it look like?"

"They are all very gentle!"

Alicia answered without thinking.

"..."

Being praised like this, Li scratched her cheek uncomfortably.

"It really seems like... Ah, me too, Li, guess which character in this story is the most similar to me?" Alicia held out a few fingers, "Hint: The main characters in this story are besides the handsome Prince Charming. In addition, there are the equally beautiful Snow White and the evil Queen, and yes, there are also seven cute dwarfs~?"

After thinking about it, Alicia added: "Another reminder: If you give an answer other than Snow White, I will be very angry~?"

The words were full of threats.

"..."

Then doesn't he have no other options at all?

Li said helplessly: "I think you look like Snow White."

"Yeah, sure enough, Li, you feel the same way, right?"

"..."

Forget it, just be happy.

"Li, ask again, what is the final relationship between Snow White and Prince Charming?"

"...Aren't you hungry anymore?"

"Well... can we eat after asking this question~?"

"...I think they are brother and sister."

"Hey, hey? Why???"

"Because they all have the surname Bai."

Li said matter-of-factly, but looking at Alicia's expression, she became confused again.

"Isn't it right?"

"Of course not!"

Alicia puffed up her cheeks and said angrily: "Snow White and Prince Charming finally became husband and wife. Li, you can't even guess this?"

"...Now that the questions have been answered, can we eat now?"

Li's current thoughts are only about cooking.

"..."

Alicia was speechless when she saw Li's indifferent look. Really, was Prince Charming's emotional intelligence so low in the story Celia's mother told?

……

"Alicia, here it is."

Li tore off a pigeon leg and handed it to Alicia.

"Oh……"

Alicia took it dully and absentmindedly ate her dinner in small bites.

Li was just about to speak, but his movements suddenly stopped, and he stretched out his fingers to tap his head. He felt inexplicably drowsy, as if he would fall asleep at any time, and he would probably not wake up.

Li glanced at Alicia calmly, but Li didn't make a sound.

I always feel that no matter how much I don't want to, he and this girl will eventually be separated in the future.
