Chapter 38: A Calm Break

"Dio...... I don't know what kind of person it is. ”

Lloyd sighed with some curiosity.

Listening to Sergei's description, it seems that he is not a bad person. To Lloyd, it was a completely unfamiliar name.

"Dior, it seems to be a very decent person."

Ellie hesitated, but said so.

Receiving Lloyd's words made Ellie a little embarrassed, after all, she had just lost her temper before, but Joshua encouraged herself so much, if she didn't show some courage, she would be too sorry for Joshua's time to enlighten her.

Otherwise, talk to Lloyd.

No, no, no, this is too jumpy, let's talk to You Jun first. If it were him, he would have been able to tell me the right thing to do.

Ellie didn't notice that they were all talking to the boy, but she had a completely different attitude towards Lloyd and You. Obviously, Lloyd has a bigger weight in her heart.

Maybe some people think that Ellie is obviously more willing to talk to You? Why is Lloyd's weight greater? After all, the girl's heart is always ashamed to open up to the person she likes, Ellie didn't notice that she was vaguely beginning to pay attention to this big boy with a warm and gentle personality.

As for You, Ellie is more of a respect. Although his identity as a killer is difficult for Ellie to accept, however, Yu is not a villain, he has his own creed and persistence. Moreover, the work experience of the guerrilla also gave him a sense of reliability. It is hard to imagine that someone who was trusted by Estelle and Joshua was a wicked man.

Randy heard Ellie say that, and screamed in a provocative tone, "Oh? Miss, do you think highly of Dior? Do you know him? ”

Ellie gave him a blank look, and replied angrily, "I just met this afternoon." It seems to be the logistics staff of the Scarlet Scorpion. ”

For some reason, after listening to Ellie's words, You suddenly stopped his chopsticks and pressed his left hand on his lower abdomen.

Tio noticed this and asked, "What's wrong with Big Brother You?" ”

"It's okay...... I have a stomach ache when I hear the Scarlet Scorpio now...... Really...... Just hearing the name starts to hurt in my head......"

Yu Tatsumi thought in rare fragments, and it could be seen that one afternoon, he had been given an almost reflexive disgust by Lancet.

Everyone smiled happily, wondering if You was making a big fuss, but Lin and Aiolia expressed sympathy.

Dior, there are strange people again. Why did Crossbell gather so many strange people? Lloyd muttered to himself. However, he seems to be a good person, and his skills are very good. I hope I'll have the pleasure of meeting each other in the future.

There was nothing more interesting at the dinner table, and after eating and chatting casually, Lin and Eolia helped clean up the table. Dior made a table of dishes, which looked luxurious and magnificent, but of course it was a troublesome thing to clean up......

After cleaning up, Lin and Eolia took their leave. Today, because of the Karuman Consortium, Lin and Eolia threw their work aside for a full afternoon, which is not a good thing, which means that tomorrow there will be a lot of work that makes people want to cry when they hear the word "mission". Therefore, it is necessary to adjust to the best form today, and God knows how far Michelle will burn the two tomorrow?

Everyone in the Support Division went back to their rooms and went about their own business.

You tidied up his chain box in the room, and chatted with Rui by the way. He was the only one who could talk to Rui at the moment, and in order to prevent Rui's language skills from deteriorating, this was something like that that had to be done.

Randy took out his treasured treasure, and looked at the exciting pictures on it that were inappropriate for children, and Randy felt a little relaxed. However, his hand was turning the pages of the book, but his eyes were not focused on the writing, and he muttered to himself, "Do you want to get 'that' back......"

Theo threw out a stack of letterhead in his room, sorted out his thoughts a little, and began to write a report on what he had seen and heard this afternoon. She had dismantled a leading pistol from the Karumon Foundation with her own hands, and she felt it was necessary to report some of the internal techniques to the Epstein Foundation. As for the title of the report, she pondered for fifteen minutes, and finally wrote at the beginning of the paper "On the Superiority and Disadvantages of Guiding Weapons and Gunpowder Weapons."

He Xu is still buried in the machine in the living room. Tactical Force Guides are very portable and easy to learn, making them popular with combatants. But few people will care about how cumbersome it is to adjust this convenient tool. In order to better test the beta version of Anigema II, Hexu has been working hard this afternoon to make a circuit that can be embedded in it.

At this moment, a young man with brown broken hair, wearing a casual gray shirt and trousers, began to walk towards the fourth floor. For today's events, Lloyd has always been unable to mind, as if a boulder pressed against his heart. I don't want Yuki Tatsumi to enlighten me, Lloyd just wants to talk to someone who is experienced.

Moreover, he also noticed that Ellie was always avoiding him, intentionally or unintentionally, which made Lloyd a little worried. It's not that I want to show favor to Ellie or something like a shallow reason, but it's more atmospheric and more boring, because everyone is a companion, and of course such a small gap can be few.

However, Lloyd is not very good at women-related topics, and based on Yu-Tatsumi's appearance in the support department, Lloyd concluded that he was at least a very good person in dealing with interpersonal relationships, and that he was not a talkative person.

There were some old yellow wood stairs falling down one by one, but the body gradually had a sense of relief. At the end of the staircase is a plank landing, which connects the staircase to the upper roof and the carpet to the other rooms.

This carpet Lloyd was sure that he didn't have it when he first came to this department building. It should have been added by Yuki Tatsumi himself. Festive red, short hair, gold thread embroidered with most rose patterns, this is a style that looks a little vulgar.

Lloyd was a little surprised, he didn't expect Yuki Tatsumi to like this style of carpet. In Lloyd's impression, you should like cool tones and don't like luxurious decorations.

The gaze continued to move upward, it was a pair of fair and beautiful feet, wearing a pair of high-heeled sandals, I don't know whether it was for coolness or beauty, the blue material that should have wrapped the surface of the foot was just in the form of a strap, tied a few times at random, and the delicate toes and white and tender skin were exposed.

Above, plain white dresses and long dove gray hair, visitors were hesitant to knock on You's door. Slender hands languidly wrestled near the doorknob.

Lloyd hesitated, but decided to say hello.

"Well, good evening, Ellie."

"Huh?"

Ellie was visibly startled, as if a napping cat had suddenly been doused with cold water on its tail, Ellie reflexively jumped back half a step, her hands covering her mouth that was wide open in surprise.

She usually looks like a mature and steady eldest lady, and this wavering expression of surprise is a rare product, and Lloyd can't help but look at her twice.

Ellie, that's so cute......

A heartless exclamation flashed through Lloyd's mind.

Ellie's voice was a little overwhelmed by surprise, and she stammered back, "Rollo Royd?!" The evening number ......" may be because she is so nervous that she can't even pronounce "good" normally.

"Ah......h

Responses that are both boring and dull.

A long silence ensued.

Neither side knew how to speak.

Ellie had tried to escape, but Lloyd was at the top of the stairs because he was overwhelmed, and there was only one staircase passage in the building. If you want to run away, whether you go to the roof or run back to your room, you have to crash into Lloyd's arms......

Lloyd had taken a few steps forward, but he gave up thinking that Ellie was always avoiding him intentionally or unintentionally today. Keeping a certain distance can reassure the other person - this was supposed to be the police's experience in calming criminals who are committing crimes, but now is not the time to dwell on this, as long as it works, no matter when he is used it!

The silence continued for some time.

"That...... I'm sorry. ”

Lloyd broke the silence with a sudden opening.

"Huh? Why apologize? ”

Ellie asked, a little strangely. No matter how you look at it, between the two people, there is nothing that needs Lloyd to apologize.

"I'm sorry I messed with you today......"

Before Lloyd could finish speaking, Ellie immediately interrupted him: "Wait, don't talk about it here, let's go to the rooftop." ”

Ellie had already guessed what was going to happen and immediately asked him to change the place of conversation. Through the thin wooden door, Yutomi Tatsumi is in the room! It's a shame that this kind of conversation is known to others!

Lloyd had no reason to refuse, and the two of them walked up the stairs to the rooftop.

On the roof of the support department, Lloyd and Ellie stood facing each other, the cool wind at night stimulated their skin, and through the breathable clothing, the slightly cold feeling calmed both of them.

"I'm sorry, Lloyd......"

Ellie apologized before Lloyd could speak.

"It's all because of my willfulness, it's none of your business......"

Ellie was a little surprised at first that Lloyd would apologize, but now was not the time to be surprised. Ellie quickly exonerated Lloyd.

Lloyd looked at Ellie's somewhat flustered appearance and was stunned. Ellie also felt that she had gone too far by doing this, and she was also stunned. After a long time, the two of them laughed almost at the same time.

"Haha, how can I say it, it's a little weird......"

"Oh, yes, that's weird."

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, and their faces showed relaxed expressions together.

Both of them are worried about each other's affairs, Ellie is worried about how to apologize to Lloyd, and Lloyd is also thinking about how to repair the harmonious relationship within the Support Division.

"It's great that Ellie can forgive me."

"It's not your fault in the first place."

The atmosphere gradually became a little **, but the two of them were in a relieved mood at this time, and they didn't notice it.

"Really, if you apologize so first, I can only forgive you."

Ellie quipped. Sure enough, as Joshua said, as long as you apologize sincerely, then the other party will not care. It's just that Lloyd will apologize first, which Joshua didn't expect, right?

"Ahaha, I'm sorry...... As soon as I thought that Ellie was angry because of my abandonment, I ......"

Lloyd lowered his head a little embarrassed, and his right hand unconsciously began to rub his hair. This childish gesture made Ellie laugh. She muttered, "Really, how did this dangerous character come about?" ”

Ellie's voice was soft, she hadn't said it in the first place to expect Lloyd to continue the conversation.

After a brief chat, the two who apologized and finally felt at ease each said good night and went back to their rooms. Although the atmosphere was good, neither of the two had any intention of continuing to chat, and this afternoon, they were too tired.

I believe that tomorrow, they will be able to recover as before, right?

But what a pity. If the two of them talk a little more, I'm afraid the intimacy will go further, right?

――――――――――――――――

Yu Tatsumi, who had been thought about by Ellie before, didn't have time to care about them now......

At this time, You had already taken off his coat and was only wearing the bodysuit used to disperse the impact, and was changing his clothes.

However, he is a weak person in terms of styling, not to mention that he doesn't like to buy clothes for himself, which directly leads to his poor choice of clothes.

"Master?"

Seeing that he changed his clothes back and forth thirty or forty times, even Rui was a little strange. His master would care so much about dress, but for the first time, even at a royal banquet in Libel, he had only dressed casually.

"That, Rui."

"Yes."

"I'm going to ask you some very important questions next, please don't be partial, and answer me seriously."

Yu's voice rarely became serious. Rui nodded.

"I ...... How does it look? ”

Although Rui was a little strange why the master asked this, as a slave, he couldn't resist the master. She stood on tiptoe and pressed her hands on You's face, carefully and little by little. In the end, she came to the conclusion: "The facial features are good and handsome." ”

You nodded, he didn't care much about his appearance, and from other people's evaluations over the years, he also came to the conclusion that his appearance was not bad. Seem...... Everyone's first impression when they see Yu Tatsumi is "a handsome little guy with black hair".

"So, I'm in good shape, right?"

Rui carefully examined his body, starting from his neck and working all the way to his ankles.

"It's healthy, it's full of strength, but it's a little thin."

"I see, that's how it is."

You muttered quietly, as if she was memorizing these details with her heart.

"So, I'm rich, right?"

"Yes."

Answer without hesitation.

When Yu Tatsumi was still a killer, he only received orders of more than 10 million meters, and in terms of the number of bounties he received, it was conservatively estimated that there were nearly one billion deposits.

This can be seen from the "pocket money" he gave Rui.

"That'...... What's the problem...... That's right! Finally, what is my personality? ”

Just after You asked the question, Rui fell silent.

The slave's first priority is to protect her master, and when Rui decides that this answer will hurt her master's pride, she decisively chooses to shut up.

"Uh...... Why are you silent......

“…………”

"Really, really that bad?"

Nodding his head......

"Ahaha...... Skip this topic. ”

You looked away with some weakness. Even Rui feels that there is something wrong with her personality, and it seems that her true character is really bad.

"Well, Rui. If I confess to a girl with a sense of justice, do you think he will agree? ”

Rui tilted her head, as if she was thinking about the meaning of the confession, or was she really calculating the odds?

Later, Rui asked rhetorically, "Miss Ellie?" ”

"Well, it's not."

"Miss Lixia?"

"Not really."

"Miss Elijah?"

"No ......"

"Miss Clos?"

"Why do you think of people who aren't here......

A master and a slave communicate as if they were cross talk.

After hearing You's last complaint, Rui's eyes suddenly changed...... Calmly replaced by worry, she asked lightly, "Master...... Is it Lolicon? ”

Ruling out the above possibilities, Rui had to hold a meeting to think about other women. For example, Hexu, and then Tio......

"That's enough...... You've forgotten what I just said......"

You lowered his arms a little weakly, he was in love or something, and he really couldn't find the closest person to talk to.

"Forget it, I'll go out and I'll be back soon."

"Yes, have a nice trip."

After the concluding speech, You casually put on a dress and jumped out of the window. His room is on the fourth floor, but it's still a little bit of distance.

Rui looked at the window where You left, looking at it a little distractedly, as if there was a perspective function to see You Tatsumi, and for a long time, Rui showed a rare bitter smile on his face.

If I just answered "yes" instead of "yes", I said, "Are you going to talk to Miss Lixia about a relationship?" Wouldn't the owner be happier?

Sure enough, I ...... Just stay with your master like this......
