Volume 1 The Tide of Twilight Chapter 7 Prelude to a Boy and a Girl (1)

The scenery around was rapidly receding, and the ship-shaped buildings in the partition had completely disappeared from view, and although the speed on the dashboard remained at 140 yards per hour, it did not seem to be very fast on this ring road.

He always felt that he had adapted to this speed.

[The past lit a fire in my heart.]

I didn't want to hop on a speeding train and head for Tokyo. ]

The radio plays Jun's old works of Shibata, and the blurry and lazy female voice fills the car, making people a little drowsy.

"I think it's funny, I haven't seen a black hole that takes a lot of effort to swallow a baseball. Mother Earth is actually quite right, every time I let you protect me, I can't do anything by myself. ”

"You're pretty self-aware. ”

"I'm just polite, can't you comfort me as your boss?"

"Actually, you don't have to be too anxious, and the control of your ability is not a matter of one or two days, once I was like you, I didn't know anything, and I lived under the protection of others. ”

Speaking of this, her eyes shook slightly, as if the things she had experienced came to life again in her mind, she was not a person who liked to immerse herself in memories, and such a topic still made her think of something.

"Really, your sword looks much better than mine. ”

"When I first awakened my abilities, I couldn't even hold this sword steadily, and if it weren't for that person, I might have died when I first awakened. ”

"So serious?, will the awakened ability still kill people?" His eyes widened in surprise, he only had a preliminary understanding of the world of ability, but he could not have imagined that there was such a risk.

"There was no such danger in the ability itself, it was just a bit of a surprise at the time. Lin Xiaojiayun lightly brushed the hair hanging down in front of his forehead, and continued to drive the sports car on the highway with concentration.

"Is the person who saved you your master or something? ”

"My father, to be exact. ”

"No wonder, there is a capable father, this starting point is much higher than mine. ”

"He wasn't my biological father, my biological parents died in that accident, and he saved me. She was still in that calm tone, like a deep pool of stagnant water.

An Yiran, who heard these words, was choked up, and his heart was quite delicious.

No matter how plain Lin Xiaojia's performance is, such an experience should be an extremely heavy burden for anyone.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ask that. His tone seemed a little cramped, did such a heavy topic hurt Lin Xiaojia?

"I'm not as vulnerable as you think, and if I really can't get out, I won't talk to you about these things now. ”

As she said, Lin Xiaojia has always been very calm from beginning to end, as if she was telling anecdotes about herself.

The girl, who was about An Yiran's age, skillfully steered the sports car, shuttling on the road, the wind pouring in through the half-open gaps in the window, and the tied horse's tail swaying from side to side with the wind.

Her eyes were slightly squinted to prevent strong winds from blowing into her eyes to obstruct her vision, and her scattered strands of hair hung down on the sides of her face, creating a gentle arc.

Her calm profile is really beautiful.

An Yiran thought in her heart, if Lin Xiaojia who entered the battle state was as fiery as fire, then at this moment she was as tranquil as a hyacinth, like a little sister next door who was ignorant of the world.

But all the things she has experienced are beyond her imagination now, Lin Xiaojia is a real existence under this absolute contradiction.

"Trust is the foundation of a team, but also the benchmark for survival, no matter how strong a capable person is, there is no way to face the army of wreckage alone, that is suicide. We're a team, and I have good reason to trust you, so it's not a big deal to know some of my past. Seeing that he had been silent, Lin Xiaojia took the lead in breaking the silence.

An Yiran, who was still immersed in Lin Xiaojia's beautiful side face, came back to his senses, and his face was slightly red.

After staring at a girl's face for so long, if there were bystanders, you must think that you are an idiot, right?

Lin Xiaojia didn't notice this, she had much less speculation about other people's hearts than An Yiran.

"Speaking of trust, I guess I do the same to you. Whether it's you, Li Ruolin, Lao Zhang and Eagle Falcon, they all risked their lives to save me, to be honest, even if a person like me is kidnapped by a night wreck or something, it's actually insignificant, but even if it's me, you still do your best to protect it. ”

The young man's eyes were slightly dim when he said this, and he had always had an evasive attitude towards everything.

Even when Lin Xiaojia saved himself and was in danger, the first thought in his mind was to give up, and the desire to escape when facing the Earth Mother also occupied most of it, is this his own really worth protecting?

Even the question of why he has the ability makes him unbelievable, and these settings exclusive to the protagonist in the novel are obviously fundamentally different from his own image.

"If that day wasn't the last day you decided to face, you probably wouldn't have the power and we wouldn't be alive until now. If you don't choose to resist Mother Earth with all your might, then before Li Ruolin arrives, that serum will already be in your body. And if you don't choose to trust us, there won't be a D-Class Operator Black Hole. ”

Her words were not words of comfort or encouragement, simple and direct and slightly clumsy, but even so, it still warmed An Yiran's heart slightly.

She slammed on the brakes, and Ftype slowly stopped around the corner after a burst of sliding, the scenery becoming familiar.

"Arrived, get out of the car. ”

Resuming his previous unquestionable tone, Lin Xiaojia gave instructions to the young man in the co-pilot.

An Yiran hurriedly loosened his seat belt, so that the resolute Lin Xiaojia was the Lin Xiaojia in his impression.

"By the way, take this. ”

Lin Xiaojia took out a Bluetooth headset-like thing from the glove box and threw it to An Yiran, who had not walked a few steps away.

"The area intercom device, covering the whole city, is also bio-charging, voice control, remember to take it with you. She said as she pulled out her phone and raised it. "Lest I waste my time calling you. ”

There was another cacophony of rubber rubbing against the ground, and the red sports car engine roared again, making a 180° turn in place and speeding out in the opposite direction.

"Be on call tomorrow. ”

This was the last sentence she left, and in the blink of an eye, only the scarlet back of the speeding away was left in front of her, leaving only the young man who didn't know whether it was bitter or helpless to freeze in place.

As Lin Xiaojia said, in the next few days, at the same time every morning, the intercom device will begin to vibrate strongly in a rhythmic manner, and the later An Yiran connects the call, the stronger the vibration will be.

He once wondered if he left it alone, maybe it would cause an earthquake?

Every time he dragged his life-heavy body to connect to the intercom, he didn't have to guess to know that it was Lin Xiaojia's unquestionable tone of blame.

"What time are you going to sleep, are you a koala?"

"Did you know that the chances of being attacked in your sleep will increase by 80%?"

"Do you want to fight in bed the next time you encounter a battle?".

There is an inexplicable feeling of brainwashing in such a different way of urging people to get up, An Yiran, who is used to this mode, feels like he has awakened M's nerves, and he can't hear Lin Xiaojia's brain-piercing supervision for a day, and he is still a little uncomfortable.

Lin Xiaojia has not rashly appeared at his house in the past few days, and whenever An Yiran tidied up and went out, there must be a vermilion Ftype waiting at the corner of the community.

The girl driving the car was either listening to a song in the cab or leaning against the door to take a nap.

Her outfit changes less so that it suits the season, but more to suit the mood, such as wearing a red leather jacket or an army-green casual long-sleeved shirt in the 35-degree heat, and sometimes even a long black trench coat.

Under the out-of-season outfit, she did not show the slightest discomfort, and in An Yiran's impression, Lin Xiaojia rarely seemed to sweat because of the high temperature.

"Dark tones are the ones that get you into the groove the most. This is her response

"Are you a cold-blooded animal?" An Yiran, who couldn't hold back his curiosity, asked, but all he answered was a roll of his eyes, and he didn't dare to continue asking.

She is like this every day, wearing clothes that are out of style with the people around her, standing at the street corner at a fixed time every morning, looking at the three or two pedestrians passing by on the street.

The quiet girl and the sports car with eye-catching metallic paint in the seemingly strange outfit of others attracted a lot of curious and surprised eyes, but she didn't care, and she was more concerned about how long An Yiran, a patient with difficulty getting out of bed, would stay in bed every day.

"Next time, one more time, if you are even a minute late, I will tear down the exterior wall of your house. Lin Xiaojia's index finger tapped the clock on the central console, faintly threatening.

An Yiran brushed her hair like a chicken nest on the side, and responded in a daze to my perfunctory words such as paying attention next time, no, etc.

"Strange to say, since I was a child, I spent a lot more time in bed than other children, and I was able to sleep anyway. ”

This is not an excuse for An Yiran to get away with it, but listening to such a big truth in Lin Xiaojia's ears really made her a little suspicious.

They've had to repeat this conversation almost every day this week. Looking at such An Yiran, Lin Xiaojia sighed, resisted the urge to slap him on the head, and calmed down and stepped on the accelerator.

July has come to an end, and the training for An Yiran has been going on for more than a week, and he is still in the state where he can't say that he is making rapid progress, but he can't find anything wrong.

From being able to create small-scale rifts to devour baseballs, he is now able to control the location and size of his ability triggers at will.

The training equipment has also changed from an entertaining baseball machine to a more professional combat simulator, and with the growth of ability, the advantages of strengthening the five senses of mental ability have appeared in his body.

In the simulator, he can even complete the localization of a target with a bullet velocity, only the accuracy is not high enough.

Of course, in addition to habitually lying in bed every day, which makes semi-obsessive-compulsive patients like Lin Xiaojia extremely unhappy, this progress still makes her more satisfied.

The current situation is not peaceful, and it is excellent news for An Yiran to become a combat force one day earlier.
