"Yo, Ling. I thought you would come to me. ”

With this relaxed and easy-going sentence as the opening, You Chensi looked at the owner of the sickle with a calm expression: Ling? Haivas said hello.

This kind of intimate attitude made Ling angry for a while, and she, with her little devil character, was more impulsive than rational.

As soon as the little hand was retracted, the sharp blade of the sickle instantly accelerated, and the hard and sharp blade slashed into Yu Tatsumi's neck.

Originally, it was supposed to be a scene of blood splattering. Ling had a good control of the force, and it should be just stuck in the cut of his throat, but not to the point of being fatal.

However, what I didn't expect was that Rei's scythe didn't cut.

The invincible giant scythe has not exerted its usual power today.

I saw that You Chensi's neck was already densely covered with scales at some point, layered on top of each other, like chain mail, each piece glowing with a hard luster. The strange structure skillfully dissolves the power of Ling's scythe and keeps the scythe out.

"Huh? Big brother, are you still a [person] like this? ”

"Hehe, I'm not human, isn't it more interesting?"

Listening to You Chensi's humorous reply, Ling giggled and put away the sickle.

A child's temperament, mood and anger change too quickly, making it difficult for people to keep up with her thoughts.

Obviously, I didn't know how to cut You's neck just now, but now, Ling Yicaged her Lolita long skirt and achieved You's side, the green grass color and the delicate white and purple unexpectedly matched.

"However, even if it's a big brother, if you go too deep, you will be annihilated by Ling!"

With her hands on her knees, her fluffy lace-covered skirt revealing a clear outline of her calves, Rei rested her head on her knees and turned sideways to look at Yu Tatsumi's face, her long purple hair scattered in a patch of white, picturesque.

However, what she said completely destroyed this harmonious atmosphere, and it was a bit of a Jin Ge Iron Horse's sense of slaughter.

"Don't say anything so. Ling. I'm not your enemy, am I? ”

You Tatsumi shrugged with a smile and simply lay on the grass, not unaware that the trap would be dirty.

Ling looked him up and down several times, and finally laughed: "That's right." Big brother, you're always like this, and your position is super unresolute. ”

"Because it's my freedom."

"Well, that's it."

The atmosphere between the two of them eased a little, and after a while, Ling suddenly asked, "What are you going to do with those materials?" ”

"Probably, I'll show Estelle and Joshua."

“……”

Hearing these two names, Ling's expression suddenly dimmed, and her long bangs hung down in front of her eyes, making it impossible to see her expression.

"Ling."

"Nasty! Shut up! Don't say it! That kind of fleshy line, if you dare to say Ling, I will annihilate you! ”

Ling stood up menacingly, and stepped on You Chensi's wrist with a condescending kick.

Being so angry shows that you really care about them.

It also shows that in your heart, you really hope that they can find you.

It's because I like it, so I don't know how to get along, so I will deliberately stay away. But they don't want to really hide in a position they can never find.

The girl named Ling is like that.

Both resist the warmth and yearn for bonding.

Will you put the Iron Giant Patil? Martiel's regard as her own father and mother is proof of her longing for her parents.

"Ling. I want to say, let's play a game. ”

"Huh?"

You Chensi's words made Ling stunned for a moment, and then, she smiled heartily. When it comes to the game, she's conceited that she won't lose to anyone.

"Okay. Ling doesn't lose. What game to play? ”

"Peek-a-boo, how's it going."

"Hey~~"

You's proposal made Ling laugh, and the little devil's demonic smile appeared, if she was five or six years old, she would probably become a beauty at the level of disaster to the country and the people.

Rei's laughter is not unreasonable.

After all, when she was in Libel, Ling's first appearance was to play peek-a-boo with everyone again, and she played everyone up.

By the way, it was at this time that You Chensi discovered that Ling was unusual, after all, it was an existence that could completely hide her aura in front of a professional killer, how could it be an ordinary little girl?

So, when it comes to peek-a-boo, Ling Ke is very confident.

"The rules are simple, you are not allowed to escape from this city of Crossbell, and if Ling is caught, she will lose. The people who participated, it was Rei, Joshua, and Estelle, was that okay? ”

“…… Big brother, don't you participate? ”

"If I participate, isn't it too beautiful?"

You Chensi's words made Ling stunned, and under the sun, You Neng could clearly see her shoulders trembling unconsciously.

"Ling, I'll persuade them. If they can't catch you, they're losing. I won't come back to pester you again. But on the other hand, if Rei is caught, at least, listen to what they have to say. ”

“……”

Silence. Because she was looking up at Ling, the sunlight shone down from Ling's back, making her figure pitch black and unable to see her expression.

“…… Ling, I see. Just this once. What about time......"

"It starts at 12:00 noon today and ends at 18:00 this afternoon. During this time, Ling can move and hide, but she cannot leave Crossbell. ”

"Hmm...... OK. But there's only one chance. If you don't catch Rei, don't come again. ”

Throwing off such a sentence, the girl's figure jumped three times and five times, and disappeared from You Chensi's field of vision.

――――――

"Ling, Ling really said that!?"

In the Guerrilla Society, Estelle, who was resting from a shift change, let out the same exclamation. His hands slapped on the table, making a loud bang, and his face full of astonishment came to Yu Chensi.

"Ahh However, you should pay attention to the scope and timing. Since it is Crossbell, it naturally includes underground passages and surrounding villages and towns, and Ling can also move. ”

You Tatsumi hurriedly reminded this overly optimistic junior that although it was a good thing for Ling to accept You's proposal, this condition was definitely not an advantage for Aiyo and the two.

There was still a long time before the proposed start time of the game, and Yu Tatsumi immediately found the two of them to explain the situation.

"I made such an agreement with her, I'm sorry."

"No, no, it helped a lot. If it's a formal bet, even if it's Ling, she won't deny it. ”

Joshua showed a rare expression of relief, and looked at Estelle beside him with some sadness. Since about a year ago, the two have thought about adopting Rei and taking her out of the association.

But there has been no chance.

Ling is also a hard-working person, and she will become the perverse character she is now, which is inseparable from her dark past. Therefore, the two of them thought about whether to try to open her heart. In fact, Estelle was already a success.

"Well, Brother You, we will definitely catch her."

"Where did you get your confidence, really." X2

You Tatsumi and Joshua complained about Estelle's Lotte statement together, and were corrected by the two of them, and Estelle laughed embarrassedly and scratched her hair.

"But it's the last chance. Come on. ”

"Got it, Brother You."

"That's right...... Although it was just my guess. But if you've searched all over Crossbell and you haven't found her, then ...... You can try it here......"
