At night, the streets of Crossbell go into a deserted atmosphere early.

People are panicked, and everyone is reluctant to wander in the night.

Yu Tatsumi walked towards the support department at a relaxed pace. The body that has been alienated by true knowledge and has gained a huge physical improvement makes him feel extremely comfortable and extremely troubled.

Because the previous self was too weak, he could only specialize in speed as the general direction of the battle. Now that he suddenly has an absolutely excellent body, the path he can choose has suddenly widened, and he doesn't know how to position himself.

What to say? Happy troubles.

Staying at the door of the support department, Yu Tatsumi looked at his palm, although his appearance had not changed much, he could clearly feel that he was no longer the weak self inside. It's an incomparably powerful, brand-new self. Whether it's muscles or bones, they're all first-class. Such a body is capable of exerting absolute strength.

Interrupting his train of thought, You pushed open the door of the support department, the warm air accompanied by the aroma of food, well, this is a little bit of home.

The people in the support section had an early dinner because they didn't have a job, and when they came back, they were already halfway eaten.

"Yo, you didn't wait for me, isn't it a little inauthentic?"

You smiled and pulled a chair and sat down.

"Hey! You kid, why didn't you think about authenticity when you secretly went on a date with Lixia and Illya? ”

Randy smiled and patted him on the back and swam back to give him a big smile.

Ah, this is the only one, a treasure that I will never let anyone take away from me.

"By the way, Lloyd, aren't you going to say it?"

Randy suddenly thought of Lloyd's noon words and plucked him half-teasingly.

Lloyd nodded, and said with a straight face: "You, I have something to tell you." ”

"Hmm."

"While you're away, Randy received an invitation from the Garrison, Ellie wants to help out in the council, Tio prepares to return to the Consortium, and I'm interested in relearning in the Search Division."

"Oh, that's right."

The reaction was much more bland than expected. Yu Chensi nodded absentmindedly while eating, and after eating a few bites, he concluded: "Anyway, it's this time that I have to independently support the support department, right?" ”

Randy nodded in agreement, too, and made a mummmmmmmm Ellie also smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"No, I mean, the Special Mission Support Section, disbanded."

Lloyd said this with a blank face.

Listening to his words, Yu Tatsumi's chopsticks stopped suddenly.

"What do you say? I don't seem to hear clearly. Lloyd, what do you say? ”

"I said, the Special Mission Support Section, disbanded."

Syllable.

The tremendous force forcibly twisted Lloyd's neck, and his vision shifted instantly. Then, the hot pain in his cheeks, the sound of beeping in his ears, and the sound of plates breaking and Yutatsumi stepping on the table.

Hearing Lloyd's words, You Chensi stepped on the table and slapped him with a backhand!

"What do you say? Say it again. ”

"I said, the Special Mission Support Section, disbanded."

Syllable.

Another slap in the face.

"Hey! Don't go too far! ”

Randy wants to pull him.

"Hey, don't do it! If you have something to say! ”

Ellie also wanted to persuade this impulsive companion.

"Brother You, calm down."

Theo's voice sounded a little excited, too.

"Don't persuade him. If you don't hear me, I'll keep talking until you hear it. ”

Today's Lloyd, who was uncharacteristically stubborn, was slapped twice, and his left and right cheeks were high and swollen, which shows the viciousness of You Chensi's strength. Blood oozed from the corners of Lloyd's mouth, but his bright eyes were still stubbornly staring at Yu's face.

"You'd better think it through. You can eat as much as you want, but you can't talk nonsense. Otherwise, I'll rip that damn tongue off of yours. I have more than a hundred ways for you to survive and not die. ”

Yu's expression was full of anger, and his scarlet eyes shone with an oozing light, and Randy suddenly realized that he seemed to have seen this scene somewhere...... Isn't this the case of the first person they found to take True Knowledge, the Gunz Miner! The character is greatly mad and has a tendency to violence!

Ellie also clearly sensed that something was wrong, on weekdays, Yu Tatsumi would be angry because the food was not delicious, and he would never allow wasting food, but now, he himself was stepping on the sacred table, and a lot of food fell to the ground because of his foot.

Theo was more direct, turning on the sensor, and she found that Yutatsumi's body was surging with Qiyao veins like demonic beasts.

"Yu, tell me, why are you so obsessed with the Support Division?"

Lloyd looked him straight into the eyes, this somewhat gentle question had an effect, although Yu Tatsumi was still angry, but at least, he didn't continue to attack.

"Because of ......, of course"

Ay?

Because of what......

You Chensi was suddenly speechless.

Though I am reluctant to disband the support section, I ...... Why?

"You can't find the reason."

“…… No, I know. Because I have no reason to sit back and watch it dissolve. I am part of the Support Division, and I will not allow him to disband. If you don't want to be the captain anymore, give me the captain and I'll be the captain. Even if it's just me, I'll let the Support Division continue to exist. ”

"Huh? What are you kidding? ”

Lloyd gave him a contemptuous smile in return, and also slapped You Chensi in the face.

"What about the Support Division, the Support Division, you still don't understand!"

“！”

Lloyd's actions stunned everyone at once. The calmest person on weekdays, resorting to force so easily, makes people wonder if he is angry. However, at this time, he was extremely calm.

Calm even he himself is afraid.

It was precisely because he knew the reason why Yu Tatsumi didn't want the Support Division to be disbanded, so he insisted on disbanding the Support Division. Because, this is the most meaningful thing that can be done for You Tatsumi now.

It may be painful. But bear with me, it's over soon.

Lloyd apologized to him in his heart.

"You, you're lying. Support Division or something, it's all good for you! Because, from the beginning, you didn't treat me, us, as friends, as companions. From the very beginning, you didn't think that the Support Division was the place where you could make your life! ”

When You Chensi heard this, his expression suddenly startled, and then his face turned hideous.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Don't you know the answer? No, you know. It's just that you don't want to think about it. I've been wondering for a long time. Your actions are full of contradictions. In the beginning, you didn't get close to us, didn't want to show your killer side, and didn't allow us to inquire. But it hints at us in every move. Every time you want to lie, you always leave us with loopholes that can peek through the lie, and you like to self-deprecate, self-deprecating, self-harming, and self-deprecating. On the one hand, you say that we are your important partners, but on the other hand, you refuse to tell us anything. You are a person whose actions are full of irreconcilable contradictions. At first I thought you were guiding us, but now I've found out. ”

Lloyd waved his hand, his index finger pointing at the tip of his nose like a blade.

"You just hate yourself. You are hating yourself, and everything you say and do is for self-punishment. Would you risk your life for Estelle? No, you're just trying to fight for your life, and Estil is just your excuse. It may be a coincidence that you came to the Support Division, but you are the same in any organization. Your intention was to do this work to atone for your sins! Just punish yourself! You will help us, and that's why. You're just atoning for your sins. You just want to be at peace with yourself. ”

“！ Stop it! ”

"From the very beginning, you were just looking for peace of mind. You just hope that when you ask yourself questions at night, you can say to yourself that you have done your best, and that's what you are. ”

"I say, shut up!!"

Lightning-fast, Yu's right hand reached into Lloyd's mouth as he spoke, and his index and middle fingers clamped the tip of his tongue like scissors.

"Shut up! Shut up ......"

You Chensi seemed to have just fallen into the water, drenched all over. The sweat kept dripping, making it difficult for him to maintain his usual calm image.

Maintaining this stalemate for I don't know how long, You Chensi gradually let go. He slumped back in his chair, leaning back in a bewildered look.

"You, it's painful."

"Hmmm......"

"That's why I did it. Disband the Support Division, come and give you an impact, so that you can understand. I believe that if it were you, you would definitely understand your own distortion and where the source is. ”

Lloyd smiled. But his swollen cheeks made his smile look a little funny.

"Ah...... However, the price is a bit big...... Sorry......"

Yu's eyes darkened and turned dark red.

"Nope. After discovering that a friend has gone astray, try your best to pull him back, it's a friend. ”

Lloyd smiled bitterly, and You Chensi shrugged helplessly and did not speak.

"And, swim, you don't have to blame yourself too much. You're not as bad as I say. Although the original intention is different, you are really thinking for us in your own way. It's just that the reason why I don't want you to stay in the Support Section is because of [Atonement]. I hope you can have your own reasons. I hope that you stayed in the Support Section because you wanted to maintain your bond with us and to appeal to your own justice. Now you lack this faith. ”

"Is that ......?"

You Chensi smiled bitterly and muttered, "But it's so difficult......"

Ellie suddenly realized that Lloyd was so tough before, was it to take strong drugs. Destroy all of Yutatsumi's disguises at once. No wonder he's so tough today.

And, it's kind of handsome. Tough Lloyd.

"But if it were you, you'd find out soon. Swim. ”

Lloyd held out his hand to him.

"Moreover, our support department is not permanently disbanded. Right now, the Support Section doesn't have any tasks, we don't have to hang on to the Support Section, we should find what we have to do, what we should do, and what only we can do. You, do you understand? ”

“…… Well...... I'll do my best. ”

You Chensi's expression looked much more tired, and he stood up weakly and walked upstairs.

"That's right......"

He turned back on the stairs.

"I admit it...... The Special Mission Support Section has been temporarily disbanded. But please let me, be quiet......"
