Chapter 360: Relationships
New World, All Nations.
"Who are these two?"
Baby-5 saw Lei Yin come back with two people, especially the graceful Ain, as if he had seen Hancock before, and instinctively felt a threat.
"They were my classmates in the academy of the Navy headquarters, and then they joined the guerrillas of Mr. Zefa..."
Lei Yin told Baby-5 and Hancock the story of the two of them. Baby-5 is kind-hearted and doesn't care about Ain's existence, and even sheds tears for their tragic experience, and at the same time expresses his willingness to accept them.
Hancock didn't say anything when he saw this.
Lei Yin gathered all the cadres together and took out the rubbings of the text of the historical road signs retrieved from Zuo Wu: "With the addition of Bigu Mamu, we now have two pieces of road sign texts in our hands, even if we collect all the texts, none of us will be able to decipher these words." So, I want everyone to think about what the clues are. ”
Chief of Staff Kraven: "I heard that [O'Hara Island] was an island where elite archaeologists gathered, and they had been studying ancient historical texts. The political rune was afraid that they would crack the text and reveal the secrets of the world, so they launched the [Demon Slaying Order] more than ten years ago, and I think there will definitely be survivors left, right? ”
First Captain Darius: "After all, so much time has passed, and I am afraid that there are no survivors, right?"
Deputy Chief of Staff Bacchot: "If it weren't for archaeologists, these words would be like heavenly books to us."
At this time, Ai Yinmei's eyes widened and she suddenly stood up: "I know... I know of a survivor of O'Hara. ”
When everyone heard this, their eyes looked at the girl who had just arrived.
Lei Yin also looked at her directly: "Ain, then you come and listen."
"[Son of the Devil] Nicole Robin, who was only eight years old, was offered a bounty of 79 million Bailey. She is a survivor of O'Hara. A few months ago, before Mr. Zefa was plotting to sabotage [End Piont], we overheard his whereabouts, and the teacher was about to lead an army to capture Robin. It's just that later Mr. Zefa was eager to destroy the crater lake and kill all the pirates in the New World, so he gave up his plan to capture Robin. ”
Lei Yin's eyes brightened: "So, where is she now?"
Ain: "She's in the West Sea... island, but that's a few months ago..."
"Nicole Robin?" Lei Yin touched his chin when he heard this, and muttered to himself. Knowing anime, of course he knows Robin. As soon as Ain said this, he felt that the matter was in full swing.
Lei Yin went over and patted Ain on the shoulder, "Thank you, this information is important to me. ”
After learning this information, Lei Yin secretly had a plan in his heart...
In the afternoon, Ain asked Lei Yin out alone.
"You collected the [Historical Signpost Text], do you want to become One Piece?"
Lei Yin smiled: "Of course, if there is such a good opportunity, why not give it a try?" ”
Hearing this, Ai Yin sighed: "I really envy you, and you have such a great dream, since Teacher Zefa was killed, I feel that I have no goal in life." ”
Hearing this, the smile on Lei Yin's face was put away: "What stupid things are you talking about, you are still very young, and you still have your own path to follow." No matter how good your relationship with Mr. Zefa is, after all, you still have to have your own life, so why do you always entrust your life to others? ”
After Lei Yin finished speaking, Ai Yinmei's eyes were thoughtful, as if she was slightly moved.
"You can live with us right here, and as I said before, time can make you forget all your pain. Even if you can't find a purpose in life here, at the very least, we're going to go to [Ralph Drew] together, aren't we? ”
Hearing this, Ain's expression became slightly relaxed: "Thank you, Lei Yin. ”
Once upon a time in the academy, when Lei Yin was still a rookie, Ain was very good to him. So now seeing Ai Yin's lonely and frustrated appearance, Lei Yin also wants to pull her out of the abyss of her soul and do her best to comfort her.
Suddenly, Ain's cheeks became flushed, she didn't say anything, she walked over quietly, and gently leaned her head into Lei Yin's arms. Just like when she left the academy and said goodbye to Lei Yin (Chapter 59), Lei Yin did not refuse, and let her lean on like this.
All of a sudden, the whole world seemed to become extremely quiet.
After a while, Ain left Lei Yin's arms, turned around and ran away.
Lei Yin froze in place: what is his relationship with Ain? Comrades-in-arms? It doesn't seem to count. Friends? It's not clear either...
Lei Yin sighed, looked up at the sky, and felt lost for the first time...
