"The imperial capital is still as calm as ever......"

In a restaurant, Will watched the pedestrians coming and going on the street through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and couldn't help but sigh at the heartfelt smiles on people's faces.

The tension between the upper echelons of the empire did not affect the lives of the small citizens below, and under the management of Javier, the security of the imperial capital was no longer the chaotic and disorderly scene it was a few months ago.

Most of the evil forces that did not obey the laws of the empire were wiped out by Javier with thunderous means, and the remaining part of the people could only live tremblingly with their tails between their legs, for fear of being targeted by the killing god.

The city has come back to life, and this can be seen in the state of mind.

Sitting across from Will, Hitomi was slicing the cake into pieces with a knife and fork and gently putting it in her mouth, a happy smile on her face.

Her way of eating was very quiet, but the plate of cake was being wiped out at an extremely strange speed, and Will was stunned when he saw it.

After eating, the black pupil seemed to have some unfinished meaning, biting the fork in his mouth, but his dark eyes looked at the other side, staring at Will without speaking.

Being stared at by this soft and cute gaze, Will suddenly felt that he had been hit by a critical blow, and he couldn't resist it, so he could only smile helplessly and push his share to her.

"Thank you."

Hitomi took it unceremoniously, and then continued to eat.

"You can really eat it...... Obviously, I just had a meal. ”

Will glanced at the lower abdomen where the black pupils were lying flat, and wondered if the food had been thrown into another dimension.

"Women have two stomachs, Will." The black pupil stretched out a finger and said solemnly, "One for eating, and the other for dessert." ”

"Really, really? It's amazing! ”

The simple navy man said with a look of surprise, not doubting the correctness of this sentence at all.

Today, it was Will's turn to be on duty, so both of them were patrolling the streets of the imperial capital this morning, because the law and order were excellent, and they didn't encounter anything noteworthy, so a good patrol basically turned into loitering.

However, considering the situation of these two, it should be said that it is more appropriate to date.

I don't know when it started, in short, the two of them are right, they are tired of being together when they have nothing to do, and their relationship heats up very quickly, and now there is only a layer of window paper that has not been pierced.

Although they belong to different departments, because the "Falcon" and the "Hunter" are working together recently, coupled with the deliberate matchmaking of a certain captain, the joint actions of Will and Black Hitomi have basically become the norm.

When it was close to noon, the two found a nearby restaurant to eat, which is here.

"Although the current situation of the empire is still very serious, it will not be too far from the arrival of true peace......

Will propped his chin and looked out the window, a hopeful smile on his face.

"Now that the captain is ready to get rid of the minister, as long as he does this, the empire will definitely get back on track...... Well, it will. ”

Listening to Will's self-talk, the black pupil's hand holding the cutlery paused slightly, and a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.

It's not that simple.

She sighed inwardly.

Will was a guy with a tendon in his head and didn't think too much about complicated things, so he didn't think about it at all, what would happen if Estes insisted on being on the side of the minister?

In the worst-case scenario, she would probably have a fight with Will due to the issue of her position.

It's something that Hitomi is trying to avoid, but in the current situation, it seems to be unavoidable.

Thinking about the character of her captain, she shook her head in frustration.

And this scene was seen by Will.

"What's wrong with you, Black Hitomi? Don't seem to be happy? He asked with concern.

"It's nothing," Hitomi said sullenly, continuing to eat her cake, "I just think you're too stupid for Will, the kind that makes people desperate." ”

"Huh? It's so serious! "Will was devastated.

At this moment, a gentle male voice came from the side.

"Oh, isn't this Will-kun? The black pupil-chan is also there, what a coincidence. ”

Hearing the voice, Will subconsciously turned his head away.

In front of me is a family of three, a beautiful and gentle wife, a petite and lovely daughter, and ...... Torturer?

This style of painting doesn't seem right.

"Wave ...... Mr. Porus? Will said.

The tall, muscout man, the claw marks on his chest, and the iconic gas mask—it was Porus.

"Two ...... Now on a date? Porus's voice hesitated, "Am I disturbing you?" ”

"No, no, we just stopped here for a meal on the way to patrol."

Will waved his hand again and again, but he didn't see the black pupil's cheeks bulging slightly, and he looked very unhappy.

Porus noticed the expression of the black pupil, nodded knowingly, and patted Will on the shoulder.

"Come on, Will-kun."

“…… Mr. Porus, are you really listening to me? ”

Will sighed, looked at the mother and daughter beside Porus again, and asked with some uncertainty, "Are these two ......?" ”

"Well, this is my wife, Erin, and my daughter, Nicole."

Porus introduces his family to Will and Hitomi.

"Sure enough......"

Will sighed, and although he was surprised by the fact that Porus was married, it did not prevent him from wishing him the blessing of this happy family.

"My husband is taken care of by you on weekdays."

Irene bowed generously and behaved dignifiedly.

"Hello, brother and sister."

The little girl greeted the two with a smile and looked very cute.

"No, no, no, it's right for us to be taken care of, and Mr. Porus has always been reliable as a companion." Will stood up, scratching his head in embarrassment.

"I rarely have a break today, so I brought my family out for dinner as a way to relax." Porus said, giving Will a thumbs up again, "Then, Will, we won't bother." ”

"Uh......"

Before Will could say anything more, Porus took his wife and daughter to another table not far away and sat down, called the waiter and began to order.

Turning his head, Will smiled at the black pupil a little embarrassedly: "Mr. Porus is really, he said that we weren't dating." ”

Then he immediately noticed that the black pupil's attention was not here, but stared at Porus, watching the family of three giggling and playing, with a look of longing on their faces.

"Family...... That's great. ”

She muttered in a whisper that was so inaudible that Will could barely hear it.

Will knew that the black pupil probably remembered his sister.

In the past, she also had her family by her side, but now, after several twists and turns, she has to face each other with her only family member.

Such a cruel thing should not be allowed to bear by such a delicate girl.

Thinking so, Will saw that the black pupil's eyes dimmed slightly, and his mood was depressed.

The scene in front of him made him feel a strong impulse in his heart.

"Don't be upset, Black Hitomi." Will grabbed Hei Hitomi's hand and said firmly, "In the future, you will have a new family, and you will reap the happiness you deserve, I promise!" ”

"Family?" Black Hitomi tilted her head, "Who?" ”

"Uh......"

Will's tongue suddenly knotted, his face flushed, and after a long time, he said, "What do you think...... How am I? ”
