Time: The day after the banquet

Location: Headquarters of the Old Survey Corps

This is a former castle-turned-headquarters located in a forest.

I say "old" because it was built when the Survey Corps was just formed, and the soldiers were so high-spirited, or rather arrogant, that they built this headquarters deep in the forest far from the canals and roads.

-- Nothing but a good view.

As a result, it was later abandoned by the Survey Corps.

Now, however, it seems to have taken on a new role

"Your room is in the basement." In response to Alan's question about where he lived, Levi, dressed as a housewife, replied, "Because you can't control your power yet, it's terrible if you suddenly become a giant while sleeping, and if you stay in the basement, you won't be able to move even if you transform." We brought you to this solid castle to guard you. ”

"Really" Allen's voice was a little low, with obvious disappointment.

That's right, the castle was reactivated to guard Allen, and the entire Levi class was in charge - they were all undoubtedly elite.

"I'll take a look upstairs, you can clean up here." Without reacting to Alan's disappointment, Levi walked straight out of the room and upstairs to check on the results of Alan's cleaning.

But ah, cleanliness or something, it means that Alan is definitely not qualified.

"You've got all the disappointment on your face, Alan." After Levi left, a crisp voice came to Allen's ears, and it was Petra, a member of Levi's class.

"Yes!" Alan in disappointment, was startled by the sudden sound.

"Ah, I'll just call you Alan just like Captain Levi, because here, Captain Levi is military regulations."

"Well, it doesn't matter, but is my expression disappointed?"

"It's not surprising, because the real Captain Levi isn't as perfect as the heroes people imagine, well, so is Captain Su Mo." Petra begins to uncover the shortcomings of the human twin blades.

"Huh?" There was curiosity in Alan's eyes.

"Let's talk about Captain Levi first, he is not as tall as people think, and he is neurotic, rough and unapproachable, although he is a person who cares about his comrades, he almost never shows it, and he always has a long stinky face, in the words of Captain Su Mo, Captain Levi is a tsundere"

The corners of "Tsundere" Allen's mouth twitched fiercely a few times: "What about Captain Su Mo?" ”

He was eager to know about the instructor who had saved his mother from the giant's mouth, and had saved himself and others several times later.

"Captain Su Mo, on the surface, he really fits the perfect hero in people's imagination, tall and handsome, and he does a good job. But "I want to say it again."

"But ???" Allen's curiosity was fully aroused, and his eyes were full of curiosity.

"But Captain Su Mo's character is really Allen, as his student, you should understand."

"Mm-hmm, I understand" swallowing his saliva fiercely, Alan obviously remembered the S character of his instructor, and was abused and beaten several times to death

"Both of them are weirdos, but maybe because of this, the two of them are very good friends, although they will occasionally damage each other but they have a tacit understanding, the previous times the survey corps fell into crisis was saved by them together, when they work together to kill the giant, you will even wonder if those two people are the same creatures as yourself." Petra said, a smile on her lips.

"What about the instructor? Shouldn't the order from my superiors be for the instructor and Commander Levi to watch over me together? ”

"Ah, Captain Su Mo should be here now" Petra was interrupted before she could finish speaking.

"Alan! Your upstairs is not cleaned at all!! Give me a new one!! "Levi is very upset right now, and Alan actually came down without cleaning the upstairs.

Jiezhijun has high requirements for the cleanliness of the environment, and Alan is still too young.

"Yes! I'll go and do it again right away!! Alan immediately went upstairs, and didn't bother to ask Su Mo's whereabouts

And the current Su Mo is actually not far from the headquarters of the old Survey Corps where Allen and the others are, but he is deeper in the mountains.

There is a very small stream, so small that an ordinary person can cross it in a normal step.

The water is very clear, and the sand of the river flows through it, and you can see a few almost transparent shrimp inside, and there are not too big crabs.

The air has a pleasant, moist smell with the sweetness of the stream.

Su Mo sat cross-legged by the stream, not wearing the uniform of the Survey Corps, but wearing the snow-white costume, the Nine Lotus on his knees, the black hair was draped behind him without any restraint, and the longer part was spread on the ground behind him, his eyes were closed, and his expression was calm.

This is his routine, and he has never let go of the meditation that Kazami Yuuka taught him, even if he becomes a member of the Survey Corps, he will spend most of his free time meditating.

There was a breeze in the air, not the kind of wind that went straight to it, but showed a tendency to rotate - with Su Mo as the center.

It was a phenomenon produced by absorbing the aura in the surrounding nature during meditation, and suddenly, the wind was a little chaotic, although this did not affect the effect of Su Mo's cultivation, but since the wind was chaotic, then it meant that something had broken into the vicinity

Open your eyes, raise your sword, and the wind stops.

"Hey, we all have a good dish for dinner today."

"Boom!!"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the quiet forest, startling the birds

"Elmin! Mikasa!! As soon as Alan, who had just finished feeding the horses, came out and saw his familiar friend.

"Ah, Alan!!" Ermin's surprise cried out, which caught the attention of the other people who were with him.

Mikasa was much more direct, she didn't say anything, she just rushed forward, held Alan's hand, and her face was terrifying: "Alan, you haven't been abused, have you?" For example, being stripped naked for examination, or suffering from some kind of mental torture? That damn Peewee is too arrogant, one day, I'll let him get the retribution he deserves"

"It's okay, you're not talking about Captain Levi, are you?" said Allen, in a cold sweat.

On the side, Levi floated by, his expression seemingly more ugly than usual

"Yo!"

"Alan!"

"What, everybody's here, but, since it's here, that is"

"Eh, we've joined the Survey Corps."

"Then, only Marco went to the gendarme."

Marco was a very gentle man, the seventh in the training army, and when the giants invaded, he would try to comfort others when they had a nervous breakdown.

He is Jean's best friend, and Jean dreams of joining the Gendarmerie Corps, and they have a good relationship with Allen.

But at this time, a man appeared next to Alan.

"No, even you" Alan was surprised, because this person was Jean, the sixth in the training army, and he was a person who insisted that he must enter the gendarmerie regiment to enjoy the comfortable life in the interior, because he and Alan often disagreed and often quarreled.

Although the bigger reason may be because Jean has always had a crush on Mikasa

But at this time, this person who had been going to enter the gendarmerie corps wanted to join the investigation corps, which couldn't help but surprise Allen.

"Marco is dead." Jean's tone was calm, and he told a startling truth very simply.

"What did you just say?" Alan thought he had misheard: "You say, Marco is dead?" He didn't accept the reality a little, and his tone trembled.

"Not everyone can sacrifice heroically, I don't even know how he died, there was no one next to him when he died" Jean is not as calm as he appears, after all, it is his best friend who died.

There was a dead silence.

And then

"Hey, have you boys joined the Survey Corps? It's not a small courage, although I'm very pleased with the instructor. ”

A voice that had been seen in nightmares many times sounded behind them, causing everyone to shudder.

Tremblingly, he turned around and straightened his waist: "Instructor Su Mo!" Huh? ”

Everyone was stunned.

Because the instructor in front of me is too different from usual.

Dressed in white and snow, the black hair is scattered like a waterfall, and the face is like a crown of jade.

If the instructor in uniform looks very capable, like a sharp sword.

Now he is like a master outside the world, quiet, indifferent, and elegant.

It's a pity that Su Mo's dusty temperament only lasted less than three seconds before being destroyed by something behind him.

- It was a large thing, bigger than a normal carriage, covered with thick black hair, which looked hard at first glance.

"Instructor, what's behind you?" Amazed.

"Oh, this one." Turning around and kicking the black thing, Su Mo continued: "What I just met when I was cultivating in the forest was a wild boar, I don't know how many years it has grown, and it has grown into such a big one, and it dares to run over and disturb me, kick me to death and pull it back to make barbecue." You're blessed today, that Arnie and Sasha over there, you're good at cooking, right? Wait a minute, this thing is the main dish tonight, so you should be welcome to join the group. ”

After saying that, Su Mo dragged the huge wild boar to the kitchen, leaving a deep drag mark on the ground.

"I said the coach was a monster," Jean said with a sluggish expression, and the others nodded with concern.

Well, except for Sasha, this potato foodie girl has started to drool

"Recruits, assemble!!" From the meeting place came the shouts of the elders, whose uniforms had been delivered.

They are already full members of the Survey Corps!

Kitchen before dinner.

"Hey, Ani is really good at cooking." Looking at the girl who always had a cold expression skillfully handling this piece of wild boar, Su Mo couldn't help but admire.

"It's nothing" chatted with his hand about the long hair that blocked his right eye, and Ani's voice was as cold as ever.

"Ha" Su Mo chuckled, but at the same time, he suddenly turned around and slashed down with a knife!

"It hurts, instructor!"

"Stupid foodie, this meat hasn't been cooked yet!!" He began to seriously consider whether it was a mistake to ask Sasha to come in and help.

However, Su Mo had a tangled expression on his face.

"I always feel that there is something wrong with the recruits who join the Survey Corps, what the hell is wrong?"

said that although he had forgotten most of the plot, Su Mo still sensed a sense of disobedience.

"Well, if you can't figure it out, forget it, it shouldn't be a big deal anyway"

Please call him a free and easy Su Mo.
