Although the battle was won, Nerv paid a heavy price, the headquarters was almost half destroyed, and the repair funds were almost astronomical. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Heh, it's better to tear it down and rebuild. These are the exact words of Dongyue.

"It's still within our means, and the old people are very happy to approve the money this time, and they don't want to see us fail until the last moment comes. "Lao Jie looks like he is strategizing, but he is a bit of an afterthought, and he almost got rid of it before.

"Fortunately, the Magi host was not damaged, otherwise the operation of the headquarters would have been paralyzed. Ritsuko rummaged through a stack of damage reports, and it was time for endless overtime.

Inside the office, Shinji crackled and tapped on the keyboard, and the screen was densely packed with scrolling runes.

He was also not ignorant of the Apostle Seal Curse Rune, and he was curious from the beginning of contact, always trying to uncover the secrets hidden in it.

It's a pity that even Xiao Q can't get any effective information, and maybe even Lao Ikin doesn't know how these runes work.

These things cannot be explained by current scientific theories and belong to the category of occultism. However, there must be a regular thing, so that it can be studied, experimented, analyzed, summarized, and verified by scientific methods.

Since the shortcut can't be taken, Shinji can only use a stupid way to let the computer randomly combine the rune structure, and the results are of course countless, and one by one I didn't find any special effects in my head, and there was no magic in the structure engraved in my mind at that time.

"What are you doing?" Misato was too busy to hit her head with her heel.

"Study the information on Eva, and summarize the experience of the last battle. ”

Misato handed Shinji a cup of coffee, "Did you catch anything?"

The conclusion is that no apostle is easy to deal with. ”

"It's not nonsense. ”

"If they are given enough time to grow, it can turn out to be very frightening. For example, this time, if the apostle is not hatched and directly strangled in the pupal state, there will not be so many things, and it will not develop into such a passive situation. ”

"Are you blaming me?" Misato smiled with crooked eyebrows, but in fact, there was a hidden murderous motive.

"Of course not, you weren't the one who gave the order to capture in the first place. And if it weren't for the battle plan you devised to turn the tide in a critical situation, this victory would not have happened. Katsuragi, you've saved the world. Shinji had a sincere expression and answered without leaking.

After hearing this, Misato's heart was as sweet as eating honey, and she pretended to be modest and said: "What's the matter, it's all made possible by your strong executive power, and I just did a little bit of insignificant work - by the way, go and inform Li, let's go to the hot springs." ”

Misato fulfills her promise and invites everyone to soak in the hot springs. Shinji is also looking forward to it, and he has not experienced the natural hot springs of the hot spring inn either.

In the lakeside park of the underground headquarters, Ayanami is sitting on a bench in a daze, and the flowers and plants around her are covered with a layer of ash, looking like Yanyan.

Some of the optical fibers used for lighting in the underground space were broken, so the light was a little dim.

"Ayana. ”

"Huh?" the goddess slowly turned her head and looked at Shinji quietly.

"Why are you here? There are construction sites all around, and there is a lot of dust. Shinji sat down next to Ayaami gently.

"The equipment is broken, I had to have a physical examination to do today......" Ayanami gently brushed the hair in front of her eyes, and her movements were natural and gentle.

Shinji thought that Ayanami should have nowhere to go, so he passed the time here.

"So you're just waiting here?" cough cough cough ......" Suddenly he began to cough violently, and Ayanami gently stroked Shinji's back and handed him a handkerchief.

Looking at her concerned look, Shinji waved his hand, "It's okay...... Ahem, it's just a little sequelae, ahem...... "He almost coughed his lungs out, and his face was flushed.

"That's right," Shinji took out a small tablet and pulled it a few times, and a three-dimensional rune structure appeared on it, still slowly spinning.

He handed the tablet to Ayana, "Do you know this?"

Ayanami looked puzzled, but still looked very carefully, "This is ......"

"Did you think of it?"

"What?"

"So you don't know, forget it, let's go to the hot springs, and say that Misato is in for a treat. ”

Secretly, Shinji looked at the blood clot coughed up on the handkerchief, "Is this the price of mental pollution?" The medicine is also difficult to suppress, but the time should be enough for ......", he didn't care about hiding it in his pocket, "It's a pity, the handkerchief still carries body temperature, and it smells like Lingbo." The corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously.

The group drove to the hot spring inn, and the attentive Shinji brought Penpen with him.

Misato is very happy, in fact, Shinji wants to disinfect this fat penguin, so as not to hold back the bird flu at home every day.

Because this hot spring inn is open for men and women, the open-air bath is open from 08:00-10:00 for women, 10:00-17:00 for men, 17:00-20:00 for women, and 21:00-03:00 for men. Shinji and his entourage went in the evening, so Misato proudly chartered a small open-air bath so that Shinji could enter.

In the men's locker room, Shinji was taking a mixed bath for a while, and his little face was flushed with excitement.

When I took off my boxer briefs, I suddenly walked in with a cleaning aunt.

"I'll go!" Shinji shuddered and hurriedly covered the key spot with a towel.

Unexpectedly, the aunt turned a blind eye and wiped the floor by herself.

"Is there any mistake, why is the atmosphere of the island country like this?"

In the men's bathroom, there are often cleaning aunts who break in directly...... Shinji complained wildly in his heart.

It is customary to take a shower in the hot springs, both men and women, without wearing anything to enter the venue, and at most bring a dry towel to wipe your body, but it is usually placed on the shore.

Therefore, if you see someone soaking in a hot spring and rubbing mud and feet on their bodies, they will definitely be regarded as an anomaly, and they may run out of the pool.

Also, there are some basic etiquettes to observe when bathing in hot springs, such as not splashing water on others. Everyone is honest with each other, so you can't stare at other people's bodies, which is the same everywhere, and it is easy to have the tragedy of "what do you see".

Shinji rushed into the venue after scrubbing the penpen three times and five divided by two, but was disappointed, and the middle of the small open-air bath was separated by a bamboo wall.

"I'm so unlucky to have to bathe with you stupid bird. Shinji said depressedly.

Penpen was very excited, this guy soaked in the hot bathtub every day, and of course he was happy to see such a large hot pool, and immediately got into the water and splashed.

"Shhh As soon as Shinji sat on the water, it didn't reach his chest, and he was so hot that he immediately stood up, but he didn't expect the water to be even hotter after being stirred, and jumped directly onto the shore.

"It's not going to boil my balls at such a high temperature, is it?, after all, the eggs grow outside because they're afraid of heat......" Shinji has already opened his mind.

The three Misato people on the other side began to scream and fight. Listening to the warbler next door, Shinji longed to grow a pair of wings and fly over.

"The stupid guy next door just now seems to have been burned. Asuka noticed the movement on Shinji's side.

"Leave him alone. I'll tell you, this is a famous 'skin hot spring', and the milky white water is good for the skin because it dissolves a lot of sulfates, and it will be whiter and more tender after soaking...... Misato explains.

"Really, but honor students don't need it......"

Asuka and Misato looked at Ayanami together, with a little jealousy in their eyes.

Ayanami looked unconscious, her tender face was red from the heat, her small mouth was slightly open and panting, and her skin was like a freshly peeled egg, white as jade, flawless, not like a real person.

The high osmotic pressure of the spring water makes people prone to water loss, and the effect of high temperatures makes several people thirsty in a short time.

So Misato ordered a cold beer, and the wine plate floated on the water.

"Ahh

"Hey, honor student, aren't you drinking?"

"Is that okay?"

"Haven't you ever drunk beer?"

"Hmm. ”

"Then give it a try, Leigh. Misato poured a glass for Ayana.

Ayanami was also a little thirsty, so she took a drink slowly.

"How?" asked Misato.

"It's cool, it's bitter, but it's warm when it'......s in the body," Ayanami said, licking her lips.

"Haha yes, just drink a few more drinks if you like. ”

As if she had found a confidant, Misato poured several cups of Ayanami in a row, and after a while, her face was a little wrong, her eyes were a little misty, and the red spread to her neck and chest...... And Misato and Asuka are unaware.
