Statistically, schools without greenery tend to become deserted.

Of course, this is not inevitable, after all, it is only a matter of probability. Surrounded by humans, steel and concrete, the atmosphere is indeed a bit desolate, not only for the students but also for the teachers, and it has lost its vitality as a man-made space.

From this point of view, the environment of the private Ashford College, located in the heart of the Tokyo Concession in the 11th ward, is ideal. The open space is surrounded by trees of various types, and in some places it has a forest-like feel. In addition to the road leading to the school building and other buildings, the ground is covered with fresh grass. Contrary to the murderous world, most of the students and teachers here have a cheerful personality, which by no means has nothing to do with the environment.

In the season of June and July, the dusk will make people feel unusually wonderful, the warm sun shines on the grass or the branches, giving out that kind of light green moisturization, not as gorgeous as the daytime, but full of softness, it is easy to calm people's mood, so that people who have worked all day can relax their nerves, therefore, no matter in which plane, if there is still a trace of peace, you will often see people who have had dinner come out for a walk, if there is a beautiful woman as a companion, it is probably a life in heaven and earth.

The sunset, which had been hanging in front of the school gate just a moment ago, was now hidden behind the buildings in the street. The sky is also gradually getting darker, and although the weather is clear, the moon has not yet come out.

Inadvertently looking back, the room where Teacher Lin Xiu lived was lit up. However, only their house was lit up in the entire nostalgic building. The rest of the parts are immersed in the tranquility of the night. In that room now, it should be time for dinner, although it doesn't seem like much. It's enviable, but it's not.

"You have to have a way, right, C.C." Lin Xiu and C.C. sat across from each other, and it was not difficult to see from his expression that he was in a hurry now, and such a conversation should be very serious, provided that the coffee table was not filled with pizza boxes and various collection bags. When it all comes together, even serious topics can feel a little spoofing, as to how many pizzas I ate today. Lin Xiu didn't bother to check it out, in other words, if he could solve the problem at hand, he wouldn't mind changing the way he communicated with C.C. But since I came back to the present. This conversation has already entered the stage of collapse, when did it start? Probably when Lin Xiu opened her mouth and said the first sentence, she could already expect such a result.

"I don't know what to do." C.C. didn't care. I'm afraid she's really not interested. After all, she was holding the seasoning in her hand, and all she had in her eyes was the freshly delivered, steaming pizza.

"I really don't want to communicate in this way, okay, let's not talk about this for now, maybe life is nothing in your eyes, hypocrisy or pretending. I don't even want to shut it down, and I don't want to know about it. Maybe it's better for you to die. But I need them now, they are more important to me than my life, if I lose them, it is better for me to end my life as soon as possible, so that I think it will be easier for me, so that your wish will not come true. Lin Xiu explained almost frantically, and for a while, his hands waved in the air for a long time, and he didn't know how to describe such a sentence.

"It has nothing to do with me." C.C. loves pizza so much, but he just chews it with a blank face. For Lin Xiu's words, it was completely a cow playing the piano, and it didn't have the slightest effect.

Lin Xiu didn't know what to do, staring at the woman in front of him who was not as beautiful as a human being, his fists creaking, but there was nothing else he could do.

"Do you think you are the savior? Or their father? After a while, C.C., who seemed to have lost interest in pizza, wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and whispered, but this kind of thing is not good, it should probably be classified as sarcasm, but Lin Xiu can hear her speak now, and it will be regarded as a life-saving straw, as for what kind of tone, he will no longer care.

"I never thought I would be that great." Lin Xiu smiled bitterly and said such an answer, this is also what he said in his heart, his world is only as big as his eyes can see, so what he cares about is only a drop in the sea, the end of the world, such a person is not worthy of being called a savior.

"Maybe it's because I didn't have parents when I was a child." Lin Xiu added another explanation, although from the expression on the girl's face, he couldn't see any sympathy, but now there is really no other way, he has never been an excellent talent in all aspects, it seems that in addition to killing people, he is not even as good as an ordinary child in terms of negotiation and diplomacy.

"It's something to be proud of." C.C. smiled contemptuously, the mockery in his words could be heard by anyone, and this kind of thing of sprinkling salt on the wound could only be done by a woman with a poisonous tongue like her, and she did not get any sympathy or pity, but only what was called more pain.

"I hope that doesn't happen a second time." Lin Xiu raised his eyes and looked directly at C.C., this was a wound he was not allowed to touch, in front of C.C., he was full of powerlessness, like a clown who had been beaten back to the prototype of no strength, perhaps because he tried his best to hide his inferiority, making him look more like an angry lion now.

"Is this a begging attitude?" For Lin Xiu's almost threatening gaze, C.C. would not have any evasion, and still said confrontingly, maybe it was because of the spell of immortality, although it had been plundered, but before she obtained that magical ability, it was still equivalent to the ability of immortality that made her so unscrupulous, or maybe her nature was so annoying.

"What the hell do you want?" Lin Xiu was almost about to disarm and surrender, and he was really full of powerlessness for this woman, so as soon as he said it, it would mean that he had bowed his head and admitted defeat.

"I love to see your tangled expressions. Yes, that's it, such a painful look is full of beauty. C.C. stretched out a finger and pointed at Lin Xiu's almost distorted cheek. Anger and powerlessness made this delicate face seem to collapse at any moment.

"Well, it's really boring to go on like this." C.C. stood up and put the pillow still on the sofa, as if he had decided something, Lin Xiu stood up with some excitement, although this woman made him very unhappy, he still knew about Entu. What's more, the other party is already his contractor, and he has not fantasized that he can coexist peacefully with the other party, or that he can be a little better. C.C. belongs to the category of people in Huangpu, whether it is IQ or personality, Lin Xiu knows this very well, and he also knows it. In a certain aspect. This is exactly what he lacks and needs, and if C.C. is really willing to help him in this way, maybe it will be a good start.

But this is just a possibility or an illusion, he will never see what kind of expression C.C. showed when he turned around, it was a gloom of disappointment, yes, disappointment, because Lin Xiu's behavior was too different from a person who could become a king. A person who is indecisive and cannot bear to sacrifice his companions is not worthy of being a king. The king should look at the overall situation and dominate the overall situation, war needs sacrifice to support, once it really comes to the day when he must give up, even if it is his own feelings, his relatives, and his beloved, this is to be placed on the balance of sacrifice, but this truth, he still doesn't understand.

The king has to bear the pain that others can't bear, and only those who struggle out of this pain can have the possibility of becoming a king, but Lin Xiu is completely contrary to what she hoped, such a person makes C.C.'s heart full of disappointment.

Will you give up on him? That's not C.C., it's about a thousand years of waiting, maybe her heart is already roaring, but a smart woman will always think about how to solve the problem instead of running away or giving up, since you can't go to the path of the king by yourself, then... Let me help you.

The two of them got into the car with their own thoughts and drove quickly in the direction of the Red Moon al-Qaeda organization, one expecting and the other deciding.

"Xu Ningning? This doesn't seem to be the name that people in District 11 should have. ZERO wearing a mask looked at the heroic but intellectually beautiful woman in front of him and said softly, this is the temporary base found by ZERO, after learning the news of ZERO's blatant rebellion against the Brittan Empire, Tokyo gave Lelouch absolute support at the first time, and now their office location is like this.

"Yes, I'm from the Chinese Federation." Xu Ningning replied seriously, his slender body sat straight on the sofa, strong but beautiful, cool-headed, and reasonable, it can be said that Lelouch needs such a helper, but under this premise, he still needs to be reviewed, especially for such a woman, he will be even more uneasy, and he must use the strength he relies on the most - GAESS.

"Tell me, everything about you" ZERO under the mask - no, Lelouch? Lamperogue let out an icy smile. The firebird with wings flew into Xu Ningning's eyes from Lelouxiu's pupils, and in an instant, the originally intellectual woman trembled, and her slender body looked more like a stiff state.

"Yes, half of my blood is Japanese..."Xu Ningning began his narrative with a sluggish expression, and Lu Luxiu also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, there is such a strength as GAESS, the only pity is that the number of times it is used is too small, it seems that it needs to continue to become stronger, if you can see the mysterious woman again, maybe you can find a better way.

After a while, Xu Ningning walked out of Lelouxiu's room, his expression had returned to his original state, and all the members of the Scythe and the Black Knights were present, and it was not known what kind of order Lelouxiu was going to give, but the first sentence that the newly appointed leader said shocked them, and he wanted to interview all the members of the Knights in person.

Can loyalty be seen by talking? It's just a joke, and although the people of the Black Knights have a lot of admiration for ZERO, it's still debatable to say that it has reached the point of being like a god, especially such a child-like trick.

Xu Ningning and Tifa exchanged a look, in the eyes of others, they just looked at each other, plain, but after the next person to enter was decided, Xu Ningning suddenly fell a bead of sweat on his forehead. She can't hide from what she should have come, and her conversation is a must, because for now. She is the number one person in this team, and next, what she has to test is naturally the weakness that Lu Luxiu thinks can be broken, and this person chose Meng Yafeng, this big man is obviously a little hesitant.

"Hey, what's there to hesitate about, it's not a beauty." Wei Dongxu smiled and reached out and patted Meng Yafeng's shoulder. Others seem to be a kind of concern between friends, but only Meng Yafeng himself knows that his legs are a little trembling. Because Wei Dongxu's hand pressed on his shoulder, he pinched his shoulder very strongly.

Whether Meng Yafeng is willing or unwilling, he must enter this room in the end, and at such a time. Lin Xiu and C.C., who were wearing clown masks, arrived here.

"It's him!" For this masked figure. These Black Knights are not strangers, especially those who are extinct in such a dead ground are even more admirable, but the appearance of this person has always been very mysterious, and others are not very willing to reveal his relevant information, the only one who knows the truth is the beautiful woman named Tifa, who is his wife.

"Who's in?" The voice under the mask asked.

"Meng Yafeng." Xu Ningning nodded and replied, but his eyes looked back and forth on C.C.'s body. At the same time, several others also paid attention to C.C. As Xu Ningning's words fell, C.C. walked through the crowd and directly pushed open the door of ZERO and walked in.

"Hey, you" The people of the Black Knights saw that C.C. was rude, although he was beautiful, he would not enjoy such a privilege, and he was about to reach out to stop him, but he was stopped by Tan Xiaofan.

"My own people." Tan Xiaofan explained that although he didn't know what kind of method Lin Xiu and C.C. planned to use, they had absolute trust in Lin Xiu.

Time is walking unconsciously, although Lin Xiu has given his companion a reassuring look, but his own psychology is actually not much bottom, he is too unsure of C.C., especially since there has already been a Huangpu injury to him, and in three seconds, if there is no result, Lin Xiu moved his steps.

"Three, two, one" Lin Xiu's psychology had already tacitly counted to the fullest, and he raised his hand to push the room open, but at this time, the door was opened, and Meng Yafeng, who came out of it, seemed to be amnesty, and was almost exposed, but fortunately, Wei Dongxu was not slow to react, and hugged his shoulders one step in advance, so as to avoid being seen by others.

"Okay, I've basically understood the situation, and the loyalty of our Knights is absolutely fine, so we should give our new governor a little greeting next, right?" ZERO also walked out of the room, nodded indifferently at Lin Xiu, through ZERO's side, Lin Xiu saw that C.C. also nodded to himself, it seems that everything is developing in the direction of good, believing in his identity, C.C. also cleverly explained to Lelouxiu.

"Hey, are you going to make a big deal?" Most of the members of the Black Knights, who had already tasted the sweetness of a battle, were a little eager to try, and after a head-to-head encounter, they believed that under the leadership of ZERO, it would not be difficult to make Cornelia suffer something.

Lelouch retrieved the relevant information from the computer in the room.

It's a map. However, it is not an ordinary two-dimensional map, but a three-dimensional composition.

Up and down, left and right, even the geological conditions and vegetation distribution are clearly written. Nine times out of ten, the necessary information can be obtained from this map.

In the upper part of this undulating surface, the word NARITA is marked.

These peaks are the same as the Narita Mountains, which rise to an altitude of more than 2,000 meters above sea level. As the stronghold of the Japanese Liberation Front, this stronghold of anti-British power was as precarious as a candle in the wind in the face of the British attack.

In fact, Lelouch has been using this map for the past few days to repeatedly refine his tactics. This time, he didn't plan to take advantage of Cornelia's absence, but planned to have a head-to-head confrontation with the British army she led. No matter how carefully this operational plan has been formulated, it cannot be overstated.

In fact, there were as many as twenty-four combat plans that Lelouch had considered.

And in the end, he chose this way to fight. (To be continued......)
