At night, abandoned pony stables on the plain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Vomit ......"

Armin retched as he held on to the trunk of the tree, his face was extremely pale, and it was obvious that his first murder had a considerable psychological impact on him.

"Armin..."Mikasa walked over and patted him lightly on the back, the latter shook his head and asked a little confused, "Mikasa, your first time... Is that the same?"

“……”

"No... It's okay. You go in first. ”

When Mikasa entered the wooden house, everyone's faces were not very good-looking, especially Levi and Reina, who were more seriously injured, after all, the iron sand bullets sprayed by the shotgun would break the skin and bleed as long as they were rubbed against it, and in severe cases, they could be infected.

"Changing of the guard. He handed the gun to Lisa, then looked at Jean, who was sitting in the corner, who also came back to his senses, "Where's Armin?"

"It's still outside. ”

"That's ......"

Jean's expression was a little complicated, after all, Armin was the one he killed to save him.

A moment later Armin also came in, and several people gathered around to eat simple food, and Levi saw that Almin was distracted, and glanced at him, "How are you, Armin?

"No," Armin was silent for a moment, "Jean, there's something I don't understand... Just as I was about to pull out the gun, to be honest I thought it was too late. I'm sorry... But after all, the other party has already pointed the gun at you. But..."

"Why did you pull the trigger first... But what about me?"

"......" made his face change slightly, remembering the woman's look at that time, the hesitant look, "That's because of ......"

"Because they hesitated before shooting, right?" Levi said.

“…… I'm sorry Almin, I should have shot first in that situation. Jean was ashamed.

"But," said Armin suddenly, "the man who died under my gun... It must be a good person, right? It must be a person with a better human conscience than I am, right? But I immediately pulled the trigger, I..."

"Armin. Levi interrupted, "You've got your hands dirty, there's no way to turn back." ”

"Why do you have to say that...... Mikasa was a little dissatisfied, but Levi didn't care at all, "Try to accept this new self." If your hands were as clean as they used to be, then Jean wouldn't be here now. ”

"The reason you pulled the trigger was because your partner was about to be killed. You are smart enough to know that you can't save everyone without determination and action under the circumstances. At the same time, you are well aware of ... If we lose our material horses or even our companions there, our future will be even more desperate. ”

"Armin, it is because you have soiled your hands that we can be saved, thank you. ”

Everyone was silent, even if they said so, but the psychological hurdle was not so easy to overcome.

"Captain Levi... I ......" Jean said, "I always felt that what you did was wrong, no, I should say that I wish I thought what you did was wrong." Because I'm really afraid of killing other humans with my own hands. But it's actually me who is wrong. Jean made up his mind: "I will definitely shoot next time!"

"Yes, we are indeed in deep danger because of your indecision. Levi said unceremoniously.

"I'm sorry......"

"But it was only the result of that time and that situation. "I don't dare to say which one is the right thing to do, because you never know if you're right or wrong until the end." ”

“……”

"Lingyi, how did he do it?" Armin said suddenly, "I watched him kill six or seven gendarmes without hesitation, that kind of posture and action, as if... It's like those gendarmes are giants......"

Everyone nodded in agreement when they heard this, and they still had palpitations when they thought about it.

“…… He is an exception. Levi said, "He's been through... It's completely different from you. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is two worlds. ”

"Huh?" Connie was a little surprised, "he... It's also our contemporary, and we train together, so there's no difference?"

"That's right. Jean nodded, but Mikasa and Armin were both frowning.

"You should understand, right?" Levi looked at the two of them, "You and Allen, as well as Li Lingyi, are all from the West Ganhina District. It was the first area that the giants had destroyed five years ago, and because it was completely defenseless, it suffered extremely heavy casualties. ”

“…… Yes. Armin nodded, "A lot of people died, and... And later ......"

"Reichi participated in the Outer Wall Raid Team. Mikasa said.

"Outside the Wall?!" everyone was shocked, "Is it the one who sent 250,000 men to crusade against the giants?!"

Because Li Lingyi never said it, they naturally didn't know. But what they did know was that the crusade was extremely tragic, with 250,000 men when they went, and less than 100 people left when they returned.

"Yes... When he returned, his whole person changed. Armin said.

"Having seen that kind of hell, there is nothing left to destroy him. "Even I, I'm not his match now." ”

Miscellaneous......

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, they knew that Li Lingyi was very strong, but they didn't expect that even Captain Levi took the initiative to admit it, which was too...

"Luckily, Reichi isn't an enemy. Connie palpitated, "Otherwise, I'm afraid those who are beheaded today... Maybe it's me, I don't want to die like that......"

"yes..."

"Then we'll just wait for news from Lingyi? This stable is also the retreat location we have agreed on in advance, and he knows it. Armin said.

"Nope. Levi shook his head, "We can't put all our hopes in him, he's powerful, but he's not a god. If he is caught or dead, there is no point in our waiting. ”

"How do you ...... that?"

……

At this time, Li Lingyi, who followed the carriage all the way, came to an inconspicuous manor in the suburbs.

I have to say that this manor is very hidden, surrounded by ordinary farmhouses, if there is no one to lead the way, Li Lingyi will not be able to find this place by himself no matter what.

At this time, Kenny also led people to unload the two coffins from the carriage, and at this time, the door of the manor also opened, and a middle-aged man in a suit and a mustache walked out.

Rod Reis, the true king of the inner world.

Li Lingyi has nothing to say about this man. is undoubtedly a scumbag, ruthlessly killing the woman he loved, and letting his illegitimate daughter spend her childhood in difficulty.

And now, after the other children are killed by Elen's father Grisha, he can only find his illegitimate daughter Hrista with his blood, and then pretend to be a good father so that Hrista can follow his instructions and take Allen's giant power away.
