When Sal opened his eyes, it was already dawn the next day.

Looking at Mikasa, who was still asleep in his arms, he smiled slightly, and couldn't help but scratch her delicate nose with his fingers.

Mikasa, who was awakened by this action, also opened his eyes, looked at Sal, who was smiling at him, first smiled sweetly, and then realized that the two of them were hugging each other without an inch at this time, so he blushed, and then remembered the 'method' he proposed yesterday, and his face became even more ruddy.

Because yesterday both of them went through some 'unconventional methods' to solve some physiological problems, and after a few releases, they fell asleep deeply, after all, both of them have gone through high-intensity and long-term battles, and this sleep is quite beautiful.

The majestic wind blowing in from the window blew the gauze curtains slightly, and the sun was shining outside, but it was a good day.

Patting Mikasa's tender jade back, Sal got up and said, "The rest of the vanguard team should also get up, let's clean up too." ”

Nodding, Mikasa sat up, the sheets sliding off her body with her movements, and the perfect body was once again displayed in front of Sal's eyes, only to make his little friend raise his head again.

Suppressing the thought, Sal coughed twice and got out of bed and got dressed.

He didn't know that Mikasa's face was also stunned when he saw a certain eagle that was revealed after he got up.

"Why do you always feel like you want to eat it when you see it now?"

This shameful thought popped out of Mikasa's mind, and then he swallowed his saliva in motion, only to find that his throat suddenly hurt, and then he remembered that it was probably because of --- Saar's milk yesterday......

With a little embarrassment, the two of them cleaned up quickly, and after a while, they finished packing and went out of the room.

The period of weakness of the vanguard was indeed over, and at this time, everyone was gathering in the restaurant on the first floor of this hotel building to have breakfast that had just been brought by the garrison corps, and when they saw Sal and Mikasa walking down the stairs side by side, everyone in a good mood was relieved again.

It's just that Anil and Mira turned a little red after seeing the two of them, and they were very uncomfortable.

They wouldn't tell Sal that the two of them lived next door to him and Mikasa last night! That embarrassing voice can be heard clearly!

"Yo! Captain, sister-in-law, morning! ”

The smuggling Miller naturally didn't pay attention to Anil and Mila's faces, and asked loudly.

Sal didn't speak, just smiled and nodded, signaled to everyone and sat down at the same table with the five Mira, but Mikasa looked a little embarrassed and replied stiffly, "Morning...... Ahem! ”

"Huh? Does my sister-in-law have a cold? Shouldn't it? We inquired just now, but you are the best man in the training corps second only to our captain! Seeing that Mikasa began to cough incessantly after saying a word, Thatch also half-jokingly cared.

"Probably...... Yesterday...... Ahem, because of the injury......"

Mikasa, of course, couldn't tell them that he had drunk too much 'milk', so he forced a reply, and then glanced at Sal, who was sitting next to him, with some complaint.

Feeling Mikasa's gaze, Sal smiled awkwardly, and then hurriedly changed the topic: "Let's not talk about this for now, but how are you doing now?" Has the effect of the drug completely passed? Anil, Mira, why are you two so red? Got a fever? ”

"No, no, maybe I didn't open the window when I slept yesterday, and I was a little stuffy." Mira hurriedly clarified: "I also asked just now, everyone has rested for the night, and there is no weakness anymore." ”

Aniel also hurriedly echoed.

Nodding, Sal laughed a few more words with the crowd and began to eat, and Mikasa next to him finally calmed down and put on his usual poker face.

Anil and Mira seemed to be concentrating on breakfast, but during this time, their eyes kept secretly lingering on Sal and Mikasa, and their minds kept thinking about the ** sound that came from the wall last night, especially when Mira was distracted for a while, and at the same time saw Mikasa holding a cup and drinking milk, the food in her mouth involuntarily squirted out, and fell on the unlucky Miller next to her!

Then, Thrall heard from Leighton that yesterday's Rossi recapture operation did not go very smoothly, and after Alan turned into a giant, he could not control his actions with his will as he had promised before, but after the transformation, he went crazy and wantonly carried out destruction, and almost killed several soldiers with his own hands, although he finally woke up and plugged the hole at the city gate, but because of him, the survey corps and the garrison corps responsible for attracting the remaining giants lost a lot of elite men.

Sal frowned when he heard this, obviously not satisfied with the result, so when everyone finished their meal in a hurry, he arranged for everyone to stay here first, and went to check it himself.

At this time, the city has almost been destroyed into ruins, and there is no one in ten buildings that can still maintain uprightness, which is very different from the scene in the original book, for no other reason, because of Thrall, this time it led to the armored giant and the giantess, and the giants summoned by the giants and those who roam freely are obviously not at the same level, they can not only carry out organized onslaughts, but the number of strange species in them has doubled several times compared to the original book.

At this time, the battle situation has ended, and the people of the garrison corps and the training corps are cleaning up the battlefield, counting casualties, and moving corpses, and the stumps and blood of the soldiers of the major corps are everywhere, and the whole city is desolate.

After finding out about Erwin and Doto, Thrall simply made a tour of the city, and was deeply touched by what he saw, but of course his most important purpose was to look for the traces left by the armored giants as much as possible.

But alas, the whole battlefield was in chaos, and no useful evidence could be found.

"Sal!"

As he walked, Thrall heard a call.

The voice was very good, soft, and moving, and when I turned my head to look, I saw Khlista, Connie, Sasha and others running towards this side.

Before approaching, he first glanced at Mikasa beside Sal in a complicated manner, and Hellista spoke, "Sal, do you know about Alan?" Although there were some surprises in the execution of the mission, I believe that ...... Alan he definitely didn't mean to do that, he has worked very hard, and the final victory was also obtained because of him, we just heard that he is now being escorted to the military court by the three major regiments, we are all worried about him, but we can't do anything, but I think I will be able to speak as you, please ......"

Listening to Helista's anxious words, Sal waved his hand to stop her from continuing, smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, Alan will be fine, no matter what, he is also a friend who grew up with me, I believe that Head Erwin will give him a reasonable placement, it won't be too long, it is estimated that after coming back...... I'm going to stay in the Survey Corps, well, Levi should be a good choice. ”

Sal is telling the truth, he understands the development of the plot, he naturally knows what will happen next, and with his appearance, the status of the Survey Corps in the three major corps is much higher than before, which also means that the speech of the Survey Corps has become more important, and he naturally will not worry about anything for Allen unnecessarily.

Mikasa's face on the side changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure--- when she chatted with Sal yesterday, she already knew that Eren was not dead and had transformed into a giant, although she was very confused and surprised in her heart, but with Sal by her side, she didn't plan to think about it further, for Alan, whether he could transform into a giant like Arnie, he was his own brother, this was what she thought.

On the other side, after listening to Sal's words, the people of Helista finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They still believed what Sal said, he had never been a perfunctory person.

At this time, there were only Helis, Connie, Sasha, and Yuniel, who looked unhappy after seeing Sal and Mikasa.

The rest of the people who had a good relationship in the training corps, Sal was already high at this time, Alan was escorted away, Ermin and Reiner, and Bethold went to the court-martial as an eyewitness to Allen's transformation, and Arnie defected after directly transforming into a giant, and Marco was killed by him, and at the same time, because of Marko's death, he became gloomy and melancholy, and no longer had contact with them.

This series of accidents made several people feel extremely bad.

Sensing everyone's emotions, Sal casually comforted them a few words, and then asked thoughtfully, "By the way, Connie, Sasha, you two fought yesterday, ...... Was it during the previous giant invasion battle, did you notice any strange behavior of the people around you? ”

"Strange moves?"

Hearing Sal's question, the two were stunned.

Sal smiled, "Like someone who has been missing all along, but suddenly appeared after a certain point in time?" ”

Although they didn't know what Sal meant by asking this question, the two of them frowned and thought carefully for a while.

"Sure enough, no." Connie replied first: "I was in a team with Helista and Unitier, but Helista was no longer in the team, but I heard that she didn't go to you alone later, right?" ”

Sal nodded, but Mikasa was attracted by Connie's words, and Helista turned red when he heard this, avoiding the eye contact with Mikasa.

"To say that, Reiner makes me feel weird!"

But at this time, Sasha spoke.

"Oh? What's a strange way? Sal raised an eyebrow.

"Well...... It was not long after the city gate was broken, and Sal had just started guarding the city gate with people, and I stayed in the logistics department with Alan and Connie for a short time, and I heard that the giant couldn't rush in, so everyone went out together to behave, and I thought there should be a lot of delicious food that others couldn't take away, so we went out together......"

"Forehead ......"

Listening to Sasha's words, Connie and the others had a black line on their faces: "You foodie!" ”

"Haha~ People are hungry~~" Sasha touched her head and said with a smile: "According to the assignment at that time, it should be me, Ani, Marco and Reiner, Berthold A team of five people, but when we came out for a while, Reiner actually ......"

"What's wrong?" Thrall asked, taking a step closer.

Then there was a period of hesitation, and after seeing Sasha's face flushed in vain, he said, "He actually ...... He actually confessed to me! ”

"Dizzy!"

The crowd fell together.

"Bastard! You foodie girl, now everyone is obviously talking about business, okay! Connie yelled.

Not to be outdone, Sasha said: "What! Isn't it a serious thing for a girl to be confessed for the first time? I was so ashamed to confess that I ran away! At that time, I felt faceless! Do you understand how I felt!? Have you ever been confessed? ”

"I ...... I...... Confessed ......"

Connie was speechless.

But Sal asked again, "Runaway?" So you've been separated from a few of them? ”

"Well...... That's right. ”

"And then what? Do you know where they went? ”

"This ...... I don't know, because I found a big piece of beef when I passed by a beef noodle restaurant, so I ...... Hehehehe, when I came out of the restaurant after eating, I met someone from the vanguard who took me away......

Sal was speechless, knowing that he couldn't ask anything from this foodie girl.

It's amazing that you can still eat it when it's earth-shattering outside......

After a moment of sluggishness, Connie laughed, "Huh? No, hasn't Reiner always liked Helista? How do you confess to this guy of you? What does this mean? Is your head caught in the door? ”

Sasha said angrily, "Bastard! Do you think that everyone is like you and only look outside? ”

"But inside you can't compare to the other Helista, huh?"

"Your Catherine isn't as good as Helista!!" ……

Not wanting to listen to the noise of the crowd anymore, he said goodbye to a few people, and took Mikasa to find Kis, who was also here, to say hello to Mikasa's absence in the past two days, and asked Mikasa to return to the team for the time being, Sal put on his equipment and walked out of the wall of Rossi alone.

Naturally, he didn't come out to hang out.

Standing outside the city gate, he carefully identified the marks on the ground, and he chased all the way up according to the footprints of two different sizes and shapes--- he wanted to try to see if he could find Arnie!

Because this series of footprints is obviously different from the rest, and there is still a lot of blood left in the footprints left by one of the paws of the feet, which has dried up for a long time, so it is easy to recognize, and Thrall's speed is also very fast, and he chased after more than ten miles in a short time, but after that, the characteristics of the footprints slowly disappeared, and the blood stains gradually disappeared later, and the traces were mixed with a large number of giant footprints, becoming blurred.

Thrall knew that this was the result of her healing wounds with the giant's supernatural resilience during her escape.

ps: It's very tangled, about accepting the heroine, many people have different opinions, some say that one or two are OK, and some are trying their best to let me take it all, what should I do, there are still a lot of worlds behind......

Thank you for the tip.
