Looking at the figure of the mercenary and the engineer leaving, Hua Shao turned his head and looked at Smofa with inquiring eyes.

"What's wrong? Miss Shao? Do I have anything on my face? He touched his face, "Or do you also appreciate my beauty?" I'm grateful, but I think Huck will kill me. ”

Hua Shao was not diverted by his gag, she directly raised her question.

"How did you and Reins meet?"

"Hmm. is worthy of Miss Shao, and she immediately asked about the sore spot. Smofather winced, "What do you want to say...... We knew each other when we were about 10 years old. ”

Hua Shao's eyes widened in surprise.

"Yes, that's right, 10 years old...... We were very good friends at the time, but then a little accident happened, and for all these years, even though I tried to make amends, she didn't forgive me. "I wasn't going to tell you, because you're a friend of the rigid engineer, and you're going to tell him about it." But...... Miss Shao, you are so clever that I believe this matter cannot be hidden from you, and you can ask any Fili about it. ”

"I believe that you have had a contradiction in this part, but ......" Hua Shao was looking at Smofa's expression carefully, "She didn't forgive you?" I don't think she would have spoken to you and done some kind of ...... if she had been holding a grudge against you Ahem, aggressive behavior. Even though you're talking about your relationship in a vague way, I don't see that you're obsessed with her in that way. ”

Smofa looked at her innocently and put his finger up to his lips.

"Miss Shao, some things are not fun." He even blinked, which made Huck next to him a little unbearable, "But I still want to...... Can you not tell your friend about these things? Don't say any of them here, oh? ”

Hua Shao tilted his head slightly, a kind of knowing smile on his face.

"Of course." "No problem, no one will tell Apaya about it—actually, I'm really looking forward to the change you can make." ”

Unlike the noisy and lively halls, the cloister and the gardens on both sides of the base are very quiet. Occasionally, the voice of someone who came out to breathe was spoken, but it seemed to be infected by the tranquil atmosphere, and the voice was very low.

The mercenary helped the drunk woman to walk on the road, fortunately, the other party did not struggle to run out when he was with her, but just put his weight completely on her, which made walking a little difficult, but not completely impossible.

The Engineer next to him seemed much more relaxed, and although Bora was a little unable to walk, he at least had his own consciousness and could walk on his own with the Engineer's strength instead of slumping on top of him - in fact, even if he was paralyzed, it didn't make much of a difference, because Bora was not even as tall as his sister, and the Engineer was more than a head taller than him.

"Rhine ......"

The whispered voice of the woman with flushed cheeks was heard very clearly in this environment.

"I'm here."

The silver-haired mercenary seemed to be accustomed to such situations, and did not turn his head to look at her, but only gently agreed.

"Rhine ......"

"Hmm."

The woman hiccuped and then sobbed loudly.

"That guy looks like him......"

"Hmm."

"That bad guy, bastard......"

"Hmm."

"I must find him and then make him responsible for my youth in those years......"

"Hmm."

"Rhein wants to help me ......"

"Okay."

Reins replied softly to her every word, and this response brought a more peaceful sense of tranquility to the space. No one was willing to break this, they just walked step by step, occasionally stopping when Ella wanted to vomit, the spirits would automatically appear in her uncontrolled state to perform pain-relieving spells on her, while Rhines cleaned up the environment she had caused.

As they walked back to the mercenary's station, Elianne, who was sitting on the couch in the living room and writing something, jumped up.

"Sister Rhine, you're back." Eliam looked at Ella and Bora and exclaimed in small exclamation, "How did Sister Ella drink like this...... Isn't Bolago still not watching? ”

"That's probably ......," Reins sighed, "Is there any decanting fruit left for us last time?" ”

"Hmm...... I remember a few more, I'll go look for them. ”

"Hmm." Reins nodded, then turned her face sideways, not looking at her companions, "So...... Please put Bora on the couch and we'll take care of it ourselves. ”

Apaya shook her head and pursed her lips slightly.

"I have something to tell you."

"I ......"

Before Reins could finish her refusal, she was interrupted by Elianne.

"Then Sister Rhine don't worry, just put Sister Ella and them on the sofa, and I'll take care of them." Elianne squinted and smiled, Ella hadn't avoided her during the dinner party, and of course she had to do her part, "Trouble Mr. Apaya." ”

The silver-haired mercenary looked like he was choking.

“…… What about Imi? ”

"Brother Shuka and Sister Imie......" Elianne's face flushed slightly, "They...... Well...... ...... in the room"

Elianne's hesitation made Reins understand what they were doing, and she exhaled helplessly.

"Then they'll be handed over to you." Reins carefully placed Ella on the couch, "Leanne, they should be back later, if they do, they will teach me a good lesson." ”

"Listen to orders." Elianne playfully stuck out her tongue.

Watching Elian walk into the kitchen and get to work, Reins tilted her head in Apaya's direction.

"Let's go out and talk."

She whispered, then walked quickly to the door.

On the outskirts of the station is a garden that, though it is autumn, is still full of emerald colors, and the moonlight at night casts a soft and beautiful white. The garrison owned by just 9 mercenaries has a considerable area of natural scenery, and it is hard to imagine how big other bases should be-

"Are you satisfied with your station?" Apaya had already followed, "I've only set up your living room like you've been living in, but I'm not sure if the rest of the room will be to your liking. ”

She didn't expect the topic to start here, she was slightly stunned, and then nodded.

"They all love it."

Yes, when Fili walked into the station earlier and began to decorate his new residence, it was naturally very pleasant to see the familiar scene and decoration, which also made them feel a little good about Morfi. And these ...... I didn't expect this engineer to do it on purpose.

"What about you?" The engineer's voice sounded a little closer, and the mercenary still chose to turn his back to him, "Can you be satisfied with this station?" ”

Not understanding the engineer's intentions, Reins moved a little uncomfortably.

"Fillies are satisfied, that's fine." She dodged the direct answer, "My own thoughts don't matter......"

"That's important." The other party interrupted her, "If you don't like it, then this station will be redone." ”

Apaya's words left her completely confused, and she couldn't understand what the other person was trying to do.

If she is not satisfied, the station will be redone? What did he mean by that?

"What nonsense are you talking about—" Reinz couldn't help but turn back to face Apaya, but saw the man's stubborn expression, which made it impossible for her to continue.

He was seriously saying that if she was not satisfied, then change the station until she was satisfied.

…… At times like these......

After what he had done, what did he do inexplicably?

"......" Apaya seemed to understand what she was thinking at the moment, lowered her eyes slightly, and then lowered her head, "I'm sorry." ”

- What did he just say?

“…… What are you apologizing for? ”

After subconsciously asking the question, Reins gently bit the tip of her tongue. In every previous argument, the Engineer apologized just to remove the punishment, so he wouldn't realize what he really did wrong, would he? It doesn't make sense to ask this question.

However, this time he didn't do anything to him, just treated this friend as if he never existed, so what made him apologize? Is it Hua Shao......

"Because of what I did before, you were hurt."

Ah, behold, it is......

Reins was irritated and wanted to rub her hair, but gave up on it after touching the bun that Ella had tied up today, and it really wouldn't look good if it was broken up - at least not in front of this person.

"Did Hua Shao let you come? You don't need to do this, I won't let this affect my cooperation with Molfi. ”

There is no other possibility than Hua Shao, when will the man on the other side be able to realize what has happened? Even if he had read the texts, with his level of knowledge of magic, it would be impossible to understand the so-called—

"Shao?" The blonde man looked at Reins in confusion, then shook his head, "She just showed me the relevant information, although I did ask her what I should do, but she didn't tell me, let me think for myself." So now it's me who wants to come over and apologize. ”

Reine's train of thought was interrupted, and she looked at Appaya in disbelief, neither the expression nor the tone of the other party's expression was joking or disguised, which made her unable to even think for a moment. At this point, the other party continued.

"I apologize for the hurt I did you, but I don't regret transferring that favor at the time."

As if laughing at her self-inflicted affection, the air around her suddenly seemed to become a little cold. Reins looked away from the flowers next to her, and subconsciously clasped her hands to her chest.

I should have changed my clothes and come out again. She thought to herself. But...... Looks like the topic is coming to an end. apologize for the unclear purpose, and then explain that I don't regret choosing to sacrifice her in order to save Hua Shao at that time - that is not even a sacrifice - will I still choose this way again? …… God knows why she agreed to come out.

…… Maybe I always have undue expectations for him.
