Logan. Craig lying on the bed, this is a very strange feeling, a large number of TF special high-concentration anesthetics put him in a kind of awakening feeling, this kind of one gram can overturn several elephants, for ordinary people, it will definitely cause the organs to fail and die, so that he can't feel his body, but maybe it is precisely because of this that the young man has time to savor what has happened in the past few days.
When did it start, probably because he found the bald black man Adam, but at that time Logan couldn't be sure if that guy was the same Adam he had met in Milan, so he didn't say anything. Just silently followed.
And then I killed him myself.
Then he found four TFs, and he was almost killed.
Now that I think about it, I really don't want to die willful, guess what Han Fei would say when he found out? "The monument can be rebuilt after it is destroyed, and if you die, won't there be nothing?"
Does this kind of person really understand the meaning of faith, Logan bets he doesn't.
But the four TF didn't get any benefits from themselves.,I killed another one.,And then the other cut off the left leg with a knife.,Just when she was leaning under the monument and preparing to die peacefully.,A short-haired girl directly cut the TF in front of her in half as if falling from the sky.γ
That girl was more violent than she thought. Logan smacked his lips. It's just a cut in two, and the second TF was stabbed by Linya with a shorter sword for more than a hundred swords, and was directly pierced into honeycomb coal - this girl carried more than a dozen swords of different models, and killed one person without mercy. From a wasteful point of view, it's breathtaking.
After catching up with the last TF trying to escape. After splitting the head in half diagonally. Linya dragged herself to the nearest medical station, but at that time, Logan, who had lost too much blood, was almost unconscious due to lack of oxygen, so the specific details were not clear.
But anyway. This time, I was saved by someone in trouble.
Logan slowly opened his eyes, turned his head slightly, and moved his gaze from the ceiling to the window, where the sunlight shone into the room from the freshly sprouted branches under the clear sky, spilling onto the white sheets.
Then there was a knock at the door.
"Please come in."
Logan stretched lazily, yawned, and muffled the door to let the person in the door.
"Yo, I'm still alive."
I don't know if it's expected or not, the girl with short flaxen hair pushed open the door, bypassed the screen, and walked to Logan's bed.
"I didn't die before, but it was a minor operation to regenerate a severed limb, how could I die." Logan glanced at his regrown left leg, and then moved his gaze back to Linya, "Damn, you're embarrassed to come empty-handed when you see a patient?" β
"I'm more and more sorry for saving you." The corners of Linya's mouth twitched, and she raised her leg and kicked the hospital bed, "Can you maintain a minimum of respect for your savior." β
"Which do you prefer to be, a lifesaver or a beauty?" Logan narrowed his eyes and hooked the corners of his mouth, pretending not to care and waved his hand, "If you really want this, I'll treat you as an old man with a scruffy beard, in those novels that Ling Yu reads, the protagonist's life-saving benefactor is generally the image of, well." β
"Don't you Schiller playboys be so doggy that you can't spit ivory out of your mouth?"
Linya did not answer immediately, but walked around to the window, put one hand on the window, and smiled and spoke.
"Well, it looks like my identity has been discovered." Logan didn't express much surprise, "But you shouldn't know too much." β
"Actually, I don't know much, but I stumbled across your file here when you were transfused, Richter. Wo Fo Root. Feng. Mr. Schiller, that's a mouthful of a name. Linya paused, took a breath, and added, "It just so happens that I also know that the current theater commander of the European Theater of Operations of the Alliance is also surnamed Schiller, I think this is probably not a coincidence." β
"It's not." Logan shrugged his shoulders slightly, and then moved his fingers to manipulate the hospital bed from lying flat to sitting, "But that's probably all you can find, this kind of big family has a bad habit, that is, it will completely cover up the information of some rebels to ensure the 'glory of the family'." β
"Hahβdo you really think so?" Linya suddenly laughed, she turned around and leaned against the window, but there was not much happiness under her smile, "On the European side, Ling Yu's actions are all your help." β
"Not all the people in all big families are full of evil and unsympathetic, I don't have a network when I grow up so big, isn't it for nothing." Logan reached for an apple from the bedside table and played with it in his hand, "You didn't come to me just to talk about this. β
"I was meant to thank you." Linya raised her head and combed her hair, she turned her head, her eyes a little dazed, "But I'm in a bad mood right now." β
"Why do you want to say thank you to me when you saved me?" Rogan raised his eyebrows and put on a scowling smile again, "Could it be that you were wandering at the crossroads of life?" And then I was saved, and suddenly I understood the meaning of myself and the world? Then I think I'm greatβ"
"You're going to die!"
Linya finally became furious, she reached out and grabbed an orange from the bedside table and smashed it on Logan's head, then returned to the window in a huff, "I'm 100% sure I shouldn't save you bastard." β
"Save everything, what's the solution." Logan threw the orange into another fruit bowl on the table across from the bed with a shot motion, then shrugged his shoulders and said with a cheap smile, "In Ling Yu's words, this is called raw rice cooked rice." β
"That's another meaning entirely!!!
Linya grabbed the fruit knife directly this time, but she didn't really stab the bastard in front of her. She puffed her knife into the table. Then he went back to the window, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and turned his head to ignore Logan.
"Well, so, in fact, I still have to say thank you for it."
The silence lasted for a while. Until Logan slowly turned around. After pulling out the fruit knife that had been inserted into the table. The blonde young man suddenly came out of nowhere.
"......" Linya leaned her head against the window, and without a direct answer, she frowned slightly. There was silence for a while, "Are you...... Hate knights? β
"People's opinions are always changing." Rogan also did not answer the girl in front of him directly, but slightly twitched the fruit knife with his fingers, and then began to gently peel the apple, "Many times, disgust may come from ignorance, when a person judges something purely by imagination, pride and prejudice naturally kidnap opinions. β
"Are you running away from home?" Suddenly, Linya turned her head to look at Logan, who was holding a fruit knife and spinning an apple, "Running out of the house?" β
"Do you want to say it's the same as that sister of yours?" Logan shook his head gently, "Don't get me wrong, I'm much worse than her, I'm a selfish guy, I can't live for my sister...... Choose to leave on your own. β
"I've been looking for her." Linya lowered her head and smiled bitterly, "But after all these years, I probably don't believe she's still alive." β
"It's not like you." Logan suddenly grinned, "I also grew up in that era, although I was born in a wealthy family and never starved, but I am not the second ancestor of 'why not eat minced meat'." β
"People who can survive in that era have a trait, that is, they must not give up until the end." Logan didn't stop, and the apple in his hand suddenly slowed down, as if Logan was carving something.
"When you ran out of the house...... How big is it? Linya spoke, mentioning the details.
"Ten years old, two years younger than Herris." Logan suddenly laughed, "If that girl were here, it would be all over the sky, 'I'm twenty-three!!'" 'in bold letters. β
"Poof-" Linya was finally amused by Logan, she turned around and propped her hands on the windowsill from behind her back, "That's amazing, even if it's TF...... It takes a lot of courage to run away from home at the age of ten. β
"I ran away from home because I was selfish." Logan's smile faded a lot, and the apple in his hand finally stopped completely, "Unlike you, my purpose of fighting is not for the home or family that has nothing, I am for myself." β
"Hmm......" Linya nodded slightly, her background was not complicated, nor was it a secret, if Logan was really a member of the Schiller family - or a former member, then it would be easy to find out these details.
"Then have you ever thought about going back, it ...... now" Linia tilted her head, and in a questioning tone, trying not to step on a minefield she didn't know, "You're already a hero who saved Paris, and you should be too...... You can go back with your head held high. β
"Poof-ha...... What kind of weird story have you made up in your head! Logan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly squirted, followed by a reckless laugh, which lasted for a full minute, until Linya began to show an embarrassed expression, and Logan barely stopped laughing with tears in her eyes.
"The reason I ran away from home was because I ran away from marriage."
However, Logan's answer made Linya stunned.
"Don't show that expression, you know, this kind of big family always has some inexplicable vices, and although I am not going to marry my cousin, I really can't stand it...... Well, it's called an arranged marriage, something that can only happen in this evil old society. β
Logan's hand moved again, and he resumed his half-finished work of peeling the apple, and continued after a pause.
"So I ran out of the house, anyway, my mother is dead, my father is in the army, no one cares about me, I'm a TF again, why not pursue the life you want?"
"So...... You're a bachelor. Obviously, before saying this, Linya considered her words, "The kind that never thinks about getting married?" β
"Marriage for the purpose of reproduction is still over," Logan shook his head again, "but I'm not a bachelor, perhaps, a little bit unwanted." β
"Everyone thinks they're bachelors until they meet someone they like." Linya stretched out her hand and subconsciously touched the knight's badge on her neckline, "That's what I said." β
"Probably, who knows." Finally, with the final slash passed, Logan picked up a whole apple peel, placed it on the bedside table, and then handed it to Linya with the apple handle, showing a sunny smile without warning.
"Thank you, thank you for saving me."
"Ah...... I ......" The sudden change made Linya stunned for a moment, and the girl just subconsciously stepped forward, mechanically stretched out her hand, and took the apple handed by Logan, not noticing that two red clouds suddenly flew on her face.
"It's just...... I just didn't want to distract Ling Yu, after all, if he didn't go, Paris might have suffered now. After being stunned for more than ten seconds, Linya barely found an excuse, and even she felt embarrassed at the moment she said it.
"Understood." Still smiling, Logan held out his hand and made a saluting gesture.
"That, at least." Linya was stunned for a few seconds, looked at the apple in her hand, and suddenly seemed to have the courage to speak, "I owe you a thank you too, thank you, Logan." β
"Uh...... Have it? Logan was at a loss.
"Last time, in Milan, thank you for getting me out of the water." The girl took a breath, then shook her head, "Anyway, it's okay with you here, and the visit mission given to me by Jess is complete, so I'll go first." β
"Be careful on the road." Logan held out his hand and made an OK gesture.
Then, the short-haired young girl knight left the ward as if she had run away, and it was not until she ran a few hundred meters that she found that she was still holding the apple tightly.
And Logan, who was back on the bed, closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. (To be continued......)
