A combination of contradictions?
"Whew. Finally there was time for me to get some rest. When everyone left the carriage, only him, Ikoma and Nameless were left, Yu Qing exhaled a long breath, and his hands waved to move his body: "I can't stand it, go sleep first, don't call me if it's okay." ”
Unlike Yuqing, who fell asleep upside down, Ikoma looked a little embarrassed, he just sat there and didn't know what to do, he had a stomach full of doubts but didn't know how to speak, while Nameless looked at his book by himself, playing with a toy called Kendama with his right hand, and made a clanging sound echoing in the carriage.
After a while, the rectal Ikoma couldn't help but take the initiative to talk: "You just said that you were going to King Kong Guo." ”
"Because I made an appointment with my brother, although I can't tell you, it's a very important thing, are you also interested in King Kong Guo." Hearing the nameless words, the meaning of stopping the movements in his hands, and responding to Ikoma's question unhurriedly.
"It's the forefront of Kabane's research, and we might be able to do something about Kabaneri's half-corpse state now." Ikoma shook the stone in his hand, a little diaphragm, and the unbearable past gradually came back to his mind.
"Yes, I don't think there's anything bad about the current situation, it's nothing if you don't have strength in this world, and you also feel the changes that Kabane's body has brought to you, right?" Nameless doesn't agree with what Ikoma thinks.
"What about the nameless you, why did you become Cabaneri." Ikoma was a little curious.
"All I can say is that it was my choice to become a cabanere, and as for the rest, you better not ask too much." When it came to the question of how to become Kabaneri, Nameless's expression changed slightly, and there seemed to be a little inexplicable meaning between his eyebrows.
At this point, Ikoma fell into an embarrassing situation again, and he really couldn't think of anything to communicate with this completely unfamiliar girl, and so far the other party was too mature to avoid it, was she really only a teenager. Ikoma complained so inwardly, not realizing that the other party had put down the book in his hand and began to walk towards him, with a planned smile on the corner of his mouth, it looked very cute, but for the person concerned, it may not be so friendly.
"Now, I said." Nameless whispered, pulling the other party out of his state of thought: "I'll fall asleep if I fight for a long time, so I need a living shield to protect me when I lose my combat effectiveness, and even if you are bitten by Kabane, there will be no problem with your body." ”
"How could there be no problem." Ikoma said that he wanted to stand up and the nameless theory. However, as soon as he got up and didn't stand up, he was punched to the ground, and the fist made close contact with Ikoma's nose, and blood could be faintly seen flowing out of Ikoma's nostrils, and Ikoma was rolling and humming on the ground in pain.
"You just said that you were going to King Kong Guo, then quickly stand up and get started." Nameless walked up to Ikoma's side and said with his hands on his back.
"What are you going to do?!" Ikoma, who was punched inexplicably, suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter and seemed to understand something but didn't want to believe it.
"Of course it's special training, and now you're too unreliable as a meat shield." As he spoke, Nameless kicked another leg sweep towards Ikoma, and in an instant, the sound of flesh colliding and a man's cry of pain echoed throughout the carriage.
Yuqing on the side woke up as early as when Ikoma was beaten, but she still chose to empty her mind and start pretending to be asleep. The scene of domestic violence is so terrifying, it's better to not know what to do.
……
As the clock ticked in the evening, Yu Qing woke up from her resting state as the slowdown of the Iron City shook and the hunger pangs hit.
Looking out of the window of the carriage, some people were carefully picking up some dry firewood from the nearby woods accompanied by samurai, and piled up a prototype of a bonfire in the open space next to the railroad tracks, while some people set up pots and were boiling something, and the smell of dumplings could be faintly smelled in the air, and steam workers were replacing the damaged shells and parts of Juncheng.
"Knock knock." There was a knock on the door outside the carriage, and Yu Qing got up and went over to open the door. The person who knocked on the door was Calamus, and at this time she did not have the feeling of ability that she had earlier, and the afterglow of the setting sun scattered on her face, giving people a feeling of weakness and melancholy.
"Good evening, Mr. Yuqing." Calamus crossed her hands in front of her and bowed slightly: "Because the water tank in the Iron City is damaged and needs to be repaired, and there is a funeral, I wonder if you should get off the car and move, of course, in the name of helping to stand guard against the attack of Kabane." ”
Calamus showed enough kindness, and Yu Qing naturally didn't keep a straight face, and nodded as a return gift to the other party: "I'm sorry that you came here in person, we will try to stay away from the crowd." ”
Ikoma hesitated, and then asked tentatively, "Do you need my help, I was in charge of the repair work of Juncheng before." ”
However, unlike Ikoma's previous human identity, he has now become a Kabaneri, and although he is not a threat to the people under normal circumstances, they still think that Kabaneri is just a Kabane who can speak, even if people don't know much about Kabane. So, in this case, if they go out, they may cause panic, let alone work with the people.
"Don't worry, there are a lot of steam workers on the bus this time, and your previous companions are also there, so they should be able to solve the maintenance of the Iron City soon." Ikuma directly rejected Ikoma's proposal, and she couldn't cause panic among the others at this time.
"Okay... I know. Ikoma himself also knew that it was impossible to accept his current situation, although he had already thought about how these people would treat him, and was mentally prepared, but when it really came to his exclusion, he was still a little irritable, so he had to take out his treasure tube and start thinking about it.
"Well, I'll take my leave." Seeing that Yuqing and Ikoma had no other problems, and Nameless had no intention of answering, Calamus turned around and walked in the direction of the operation room.
