Jarvis was silent for a moment, then stood up and left. "I will apologize to her."
Janus was stunned, then pushed his chair away, "Eh? Ah, wait, wait a minute..."
The hero quickly added: "I didn't ask you to apologize. I just wanted to prove that you were overthinking it. Wouldn't it be nice to be a little more immature like a vampire?"
Vampire: "Hey! I will really hit your trotters?"
The flame of the oil lamp was weaker than when it was first brought out. Although the change was not obvious, I still noticed the resentment by keeping an eye on it.
Rather, even if she didn't look, she knew that time was passing.
Therefore, she had no confidence to sleep peacefully, nor did she have the right to relax. Even in the middle of the night, she was still walking in the overgrown weeds.
The temperature is still high now, so you won’t feel cold even if you wear less.
The soft or tough leaves brushed across her feet and calves. Amid the rustling sound of friction, tiny fireflies floated up.
The full moon in the sky was bright and perfect, and the faint lights on the ground danced in response. Only the oil lamp moved forward on its path without hesitation.
The grudge went on for a long time and never stopped for a second.
She had to reach her destination before midnight, return to her residence in the morning sun, and then face her friends who knew nothing about it in a relaxed state.
Cross the meadow and enter the forest.
In the darkness, there are no greedy, hungry eyes, and no invisible dangers.
The deer are sleeping peacefully, the birds are in deep sleep, only the resentful figure in a nun's uniform, like an incompatible overtone, is wandering through the fairy tale.
She was tireless, walking faster and faster, and finally even leaping along the ground, climbing over the mountains at the fastest speed, jumping into the plains, and running wildly into the night.
When it became pitch black all around her, she slowed down and walked slowly forward until she could go no further.
The thick darkness was like a boundary, blocking out light and heat. Only the light from the oil lamp in her hand could create a small area for her.
Yuanchou raised his hands in front of him, as if he was touching a light-absorbing curtain wall.
She turned sideways and felt her way along the border. Finally, not far from where she remembered it, she saw the gap that was spewing out black and red filaments of flame.
Like a crystal ball that has sunk to the bottom of the sea, the glass that originally isolated it from the seawater and pressure now has obvious cracks, which are slowly expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Yuanchou lowered his eyes, reached out his hand and touched the black and red flame that was floating like a silk thread. Intense pain spread from his fingertips to his whole body.
Her body subconsciously retracted her hand to prevent her burned fingertips from turning into gray carbon.
"......His Majesty."
The nun stood up and tilted her head to look at the grass swaying in the wind a dozen meters away. Under the moonlight, the grass appeared in beautiful emerald colors.
A far cry from the dark border she was in.
"If you are really coming back as written on the wall, how long do we have to wait before we can see you?"
"If you can't fulfill your promise, how can we deal with it?"
“The dullness of day after day is a beautiful dream. Repeating the same thing over and over again without realizing it is also a kind of happiness, but…”
"Why do you want me to bear all this...?"
The nun looked at her charred and curled gloves and her red and blistered fingers and was silent for a long time, but still couldn't find the answer.
She only saw that the crack that was spewing flames was getting bigger and bigger, blending into the darkness. When the time came, it would sweep across all corners and would not let anyone go.
Yuanchou stood there for a long time, until the moonlight dimmed and orange-red dyed the sky, she came to her senses and glanced at the gap that had expanded to the size of a human head.
"...It's time to go back."
"If they find out, I won't be able to even dream for the rest of my life..."
【Minato】
Su Xin leaned close to Suzuka, looked at the talisman and asked curiously, "This is different from the last one, right?"
Suzuka nodded silently, stuffed two palm-length pieces of talisman paper into the fiery red high-heeled shoe, and then watched it quietly combust.
The blue flames licked the surface of the high heels, but did not damage them at all.
Only after the flames went out, green smoke began to spread out in different directions.
Befa and the other maids looked at each other and left following a wisp of smoke.
Su Xin should have been curious about this strange skill, but her noisy sister was missing at home, so she couldn't muster up any interest and just stared at her phone waiting for news.
Soon, several members of the maid team gave their results.
The smoke connects to places that Dafeng often goes to, or objects related to Dafeng.
Most of the people went to the bedroom, and Sheffield also found a lot of sundries used by the little commander under the bed.
There were also quite a few of them outside the command room and Donghuang dormitory, indicating that Dafeng often stayed nearby on weekdays.
There were a few other canteens, convenience stores and the like, but none of them were very obvious, which meant that Dafeng didn't come here often.
Su Xin looked through it and found it to be of no use.
It’s not like Dafeng got lost in this world. When she passed through the passage that was about to close, she could have been sent anywhere.
The smoke can only guide people to find things related to Dafeng, but it cannot provide directions across time and space.
It would be a lie for Su Xin to say she wasn't disappointed. She didn't expect things to turn out like this.
Although Dafeng often caused trouble and made jokes, if this person really went away, no one in the port area, including Su Xin, would be able to accept it.
"...Still haven't found it?" asked the little commander, looking at the thin lines.
Helena, who was turning on the radar, shook her head and said, "I didn't find anything special. They were basically just items... huh?"
Su Xin was stunned and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? Did you find something?"
"...There's a thread moving." Helena concentrated her attention on the moving thread, "The other end points to..."
"...Eh? Honey, what are you doing?"
The young commander was just about to coax the other party back to sleep, but when he turned around, he saw a gray-black silk thread poking at little Cheshire's forehead.
Su Xin: "...She?"
[Helena]: "...Yeah."
Little Cheshire: "...Dear, do you want to sleep with me tonight?"
Chapter 1059 Heavy Taste (Mistake
Where on earth did little Cheshire come from?
Su Xin's confusion about this question only lasted for a few days since the day they met.
According to the Royal Battleship Hao, who had long left the city, the cat seemed to have stayed on a deserted island in an unknown sea for some time.
As they passed by, they happened to see someone on the beach. When they got closer, they found that it was a little guy fighting a crab with a wooden stick.
Su Xin didn't ask for more information at that time because Hao, Ajax and others had special identities. She was not the chief at that time and didn't want to be involved too much.
After bringing Cheshire back to Hong Kong, the young commander rarely asked about his origins.
After all, from the observer's point of view, the impact of [disturbance] has no regularity at all. This is just an accident, and there is no way to trace it back or investigate it.
In this case, it is better to treat it as a small boat and take good care of it.
But what he never expected was that after such a long time, an accident suddenly occurred in his own port area, and the solution to the problem happened to be related to a small mystery.
While Su Xin felt anxious, she also occasionally felt a sense of inexplicable powerlessness.
In fact, she was not ready to actively contact those royal ship girls, but the current situation did not allow her to consider or hesitate.
"...I'll ask them first to see if they have any clues."
"Well, don't worry, in case they misunderstand," Yixian soothed in a gentle voice, turning to look at the little Cheshire who didn't understand what was going on.
"Cheshire? Do you still remember Sister Hao from before?"
"Sister Hao? Remember, they are coming back?"
"Not yet, but your sister Su also wants to chat with them. How do you usually talk to them?"
Upon hearing this, Little Cheshire took out his mini phone and looked embarrassed, "It was OK before, but... but it is useless now..."
Yixian tried to dial, but the voice prompt said the number was unavailable.
It is impossible to block him. Su Xin guessed that the other party might have reached a certain stage and was forced to change his number to prevent the little guy from being implicated.
"...It seems that I can only ask for purification.
【There is no need for this. 】
"Eh?"
[Based on past call records, it is a simple skill to use data streams to query the other party's location. ]
[After determining the location, capture all the emitted data signals, and after a little screening, you can get the string of numbers you need. ]
As soon as the voice in his mind fell, the phone in Commander Su Xiao's pocket dialed a number automatically.
After she took it out of her pocket, the hands-free button was automatically triggered, the dial tone rang for a long time, and when she was about to hang up, someone answered the call.
[Hello, who is this?]
Little Cheshire's eyes lit up, "Sister Hao, Sister Hao, it's Cheshire and dear~"
[Hmm? Cheshire? How did you know this number? And what does "dear" mean...?]
"Dear is dear, you said before that if I miss you, I can press a button to chat, but then it suddenly broke..."
[Ah... Cheshire, you didn't break it, did you? It was my sister's... Sorry, I will go back to see you if I have the chance, but now...
Xiao Chai pouted, hugged Su Xiaozhi's legs and stopped talking.
Su Xin touched her head and said softly, "Hao, it's me."
[This voice is... Commander Su?]
"Yes, I have something very important to ask you."
[I heard that you became the chief, congratulations, but how did you find this number? I don’t remember using it to contact you. ]
Su Xin breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't plan to take sides, so you don't have to be so cautious. I just want to ask a question."
There was silence on the other end of the line for a long time, and the young commander could not hear any discussion or breathing.
She thought for a moment and then asked, "Sirius?"
[Yes, hello, Commander Su.]
"Are they discussing it?"
[I'm sorry, Sirius cannot tell you the situation here, please wait a moment. ]
"I don't want to ask those questions. I just want to know where you met Cheshire. She is still young and can't remember clearly. I can only try to find you."
[You...just wanted to ask this?]
"Of course, as of now, I'm not ready to talk to you about those things."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and then the person who answered the phone changed from the maid back to the royal battleship.
[Commander Su, if it's just a question about Cheshire, my sisters won't object, so go ahead and ask.]
"Where did you meet her? Do you have specific coordinates?"
[In the sea between the Royal and Northern Alliance, there is an unnamed island, the coordinates... Sorry, I can't remember clearly, I can only give you an approximate location. ]
"Hmm, have you explored up there? Did you find anything?
[No, I only found Cheshire, nothing else.]
"I see, thank you."
According to the description, Tiancheng circled a small area on the sea with a red pen. There were no islands within the area marked on the map. I guess it was because the area was too small to be displayed.
Su Xin waited for her to finish painting, said goodbye in a hurry and wanted to hang up the phone to go to the island to look for clues, but she never expected that the other party would take the initiative to call her.
【Commander Su.】
"Yeah? Yes."
【us……】
