Chapter 777: Christmas (5)
"The outside is so noisy. I’ve never seen so many kids out playing like this before."
"For those little ones, it’s probably their first time playing without a care in a long while. It’s nice to see."
"...When will we ever get to rest like that, I wonder."
"...Why are you giving me that look?"
"That’s just your imagination. You're mistaken."
"Look me in the eye and say that!"
Even on Christmas Day, I can still hear Lapland’s whiny voice from inside the lodging.
As usual, he’s such a dramatic person. Of course, telling me to look him in the eye was a pretty bad move on his part.
Olivia’s amber-colored eyes, almost yellow, immediately fixated on Lapland. Despite being a wolf, Lapland was, after all, a real predator who had experienced countless battles. In front of an owl, he naturally had to shrink.
As Lapland made a cute noise and collapsed onto the bed, the thick snow clouds covering the sky slowly began to clear, and beams of sunlight began to fall down.
It was around noon, and fortunately, nothing unusual had been observed outside. Even in such a situation, the people patrolling around Central Park HQ and the ones guarding the unfinished collapsed southern wall observation post... it was just unfortunate.
Of course, there was nothing to be done about that. When I was in the military, I’d often been on guard duty during holidays like Chuseok or New Year’s.
