Chapter 10: Miss Mermaid's Love and Adventure (3)
Fourth, Miss Mermaid, I want to confess!
Today, Marina is also working hard to prepare for the assassination mission!
But when she'll get close to the assassination target, the head of the headquarters, Oreo Milton, doesn't seem to care much about their trainees.
Anyway, let's lay the foundation first...... Today is Social Science and Culture Day, and they can visit the Royal Museum.
Marina was still very excited, and they had really learned a lot by following Miss Helena Valentine together in the dormitory. But the thought that those delicate and powerful magic items belonged to the assassination target made Marina feel quite angry.
But after walking for a while, she forgot to get angry, she noticed that the little man was moving very slowly, and said that he would set up a study group, or something, and even the visit was a grind.
"Do you want to come along," Wendini whispered, "don't you get all the consent, you're part of their study group?" ”
"No, there are a lot of people over there, I'm not familiar with them!" Marina was still a little scared, and immediately walked a few quick steps to pull Cecily forward, "Let's follow!"
Cecily seems to be a little absent-minded too...... Marina was keenly aware that she was secretly watching Abel's side, too! Marina secretly observed her gaze curiously, as if it didn't always fall on anyone, but was she just interested in the high-ranking trainees?
"This beautiful statue is one of the damaged ancient weapons called 'Bo'aila', an enchantment-type armor. Laftira, the goddess of spring, love and beauty, whose name means 'plunder', and her signature outfit is this mesh gauze dress, which is extremely sexy and charming. By this time, the narrator was already introducing the famous "Statue of Laphtira of Tonare", and Marina had heard of this ancient weapon for a long time, and she liked it very much. In addition to her and Su Leiyue, who loves "all beautiful things", even the little man is very interested in this precious cultural relic.
O goddess of love, which means plunder...... Marina looked at Abel unconsciously, but Abel didn't seem to be moved.
She felt shy at the thought of it, maybe she should have looked deeper into Abel?
Then the little man began to whisper again, this time it was the Eye of the Headquarters that Clio came over and said something.
"What the hell is going on over there?" she muttered to herself, turning her head to see that Cicily was also looking over there, noticing her gaze and slowly and quietly turning her gaze away at the exhibits.
Absolute...... There is a secret! Marina followed Sicily's gaze just now, well, it's either Sun Rin who is ranked first or Zhou Xuesong who is ranked third. She doesn't know much about these two boys, Sun Rin is a lone ranger-like character, Zhou Xuesong's words are mainly that the cover of that issue of the monthly magazine is very famous, and it looks very cute. Looking at the usual appearance of the little man, it is probably not bad for a buddy who can get along so closely?
It's not okay to keep staring, and when Marina looks over again after a while, the little man is walking to the corner to discuss the problem, and looks a little serious?
"What are they doing?" Wendini wondered.
Marina watched the little man go downstairs with Sun Rin, Abel, and another boy with a dark face, is this a quarrel? Isn't that right......
When she turned around, she saw Cecily look away, and Marina was convinced of her own judgment that her roommate must have liked someone too.
"Sicily," she asked directly, "you seem to be paying attention to them, are you secretly observing any boy?"
“...... No!" Cecily was taken aback and waved her hand.
"Don't lie to me, you must have a secret!"
"Marina, I think you have a secret," Sicily snapped out, "Do you like Abel Retan anymore?"
"Ahh......h
Cecily smiled and nodded quickly: "It's a little ......"
"Actually, Marina...... I'll tell you," looking at her who instantly became self-loathing, Cecily leaned into her ear comfortingly and said, "I like Sun Rin, who is ranked first!"
"Really?" Marina's eyes widened.
"Well, calm and dashing, he looks lazy but he is very handsome in battle! he is as mysterious and fierce as a panther!" said Cicely, her eyes bright.
"That's ......"
"Marina," Cecily suddenly took her hand sternly, "let's go down together, confession." ”
"Huh?" It was so sudden, and Marina was taken aback.
"I'm going to confess...... "Cicily made up her mind, clenched her fist and stepped forward, "Then I'll go." ”
"Wait!" Seeing her brave move, Marina also made up her mind urgently, "Then I'll go too!"
"Are you really going?" Wendini was a little skeptical of their chances of success, "it doesn't look like the atmosphere is very suitable, they seem to be in trouble." ”
"Let's go check on the situation first!" Cecily took Marina's hand and hurried over, passing by Cleo, Marina seemed to meet Cleo's gaze.
Surprised...... Marina felt that Clio wasn't a bad guy either, but after all, he was the "eye" that monitored the actions of all Blue World Punishers, and she had to be on guard. She glanced back, and Clio seemed to be walking in Wendini's direction.
Nothing will happen, will it...... But she didn't have time to think about it, they had already reached the fourth floor, and Abel was standing very clearly in the door of the men's bathroom.
"They ......" Marina understood, this is a group bathroom!
It's kind of embarrassing...... This is definitely not a good time to confess!
"Let's go, Sicily. "Marina decided that it would be better to talk about it later, and that she could find a peaceful and beautiful place on the Isle of Grudges, wouldn't she?
"Wait, Marina," Sicily didn't give up, "Abel didn't go, you can confess." ”
But...... "It's not a good environment, is it?" and Abel seems to be on guard, isn't it?
"I still want to confess right away," Sicily pleaded sincerely, "Well, Marina, I'll go to the bathroom and put on some makeup, and if Sun Rin-san comes out before me, can I delay it?"
This one...... Marina thought for a moment, and finally nodded: "Then you hurry up, although I think you are fine now...... Don't exaggerate too much, I don't think Sun Rin is a boy who likes girls with heavy makeup. ”
"Thank you, Marina! Then I'll go. Cecily walked briskly, inevitably greeting Abel as she passed by. Because of her greeting, Abel also noticed Marina's side, and then greeted Marina with a smile.
This finally gave rise to a reason to go over and inquire about the situation, and Marina walked over and asked curiously about her doubts: "Abel, are you in trouble?"
"It's really a little confusing, I'm not sure if there's an incident......" Abel scratched his cheeks, "It's hard to say for the time being, it's a little embarrassing to say......"
He looked a little anxious...... You won't really bother him, will you?
She was still thinking nonsense, but suddenly she felt the earth shake!
"Be careful!" In the midst of the chaos, the boy she liked hugged herself!
Fortunately, although the building cracked, it did not collapse...... Abel immediately let go of his embrace, looking very flustered: "Uh...... I'm sorry, I just ......"
"Abel!" she shouted in a strong urge.
"Huh?" Abel's expression was full of inquiry, as he looked at him with bright blue eyes.
"I," Marina whispered intermittently, "I want to ......"
Hurry up, or he'll be impatient, right? Girls aren't cute enough! But it seems a little ashamed to say it.
"Come on," she said aloud, plucking up her courage, "I'll fight with you!"
Abel was stunned for a moment, then asked tentatively, "You mean to be my contractor?"
"Huh?"
"That's what you mean, right? But my 'sensory extension' isn't a particularly powerful ability, you know the ...... of the symbiosis contract," Abel explained slowly, "This is not a self-deprecating thing, but it's better to be cautious." ”
"Well......" Although Abel misunderstood, but this is also to blame for not saying the word like like first, right?Marina immediately shook her head, "I think your ability is great!
"But if you bring it up suddenly...... This really needs to be carefully considered, because it is a lifetime thing...... "Abel is still hesitating, he was already worried about what to warn of, and now he has to face this new problem, which is really troublesome.
"We can think about this slowly, it doesn't matter!" Marina is an empathetic girl.
At this time, he heard a gunshot exploding, Abel suddenly looked in the direction of the sound source, and at the same time subconsciously pushed her to the place where there was a wall at the end of the women's bathroom.
The second gunshot rang out! Hear the sound coming from the building opposite, the men's bathroom! Sniper! Marina realized what Abel was worried about, it was an assassination attempt against them!
Before she could do anything, the top of the side suddenly collapsed, and green vines poured out of the big hole like a waterfall! She was protected by Abel, and just like that, she saw Zhou Xuesong and three people falling in front of her along the vines.
"You-"
"Help keep an eye on Cecily!I'll deal with the shooting here!" Zhou Xuesong directly pushed a girl to the women's bathroom, threw down a sentence and rushed into the men's bathroom. Wait, why are you watching Cicily?
"Thank you Marina, I'll think about it seriously!" Abel was also anxious here, and he responded in a hurry, "This is a very serious question, let's discuss it slowly in the future, shall we?"
Wait, it's not—but Marina didn't have time to explain, and there might have been some misunderstanding on Sicily's side, so she hurried into the women's bathroom, only to see Cecily wrestling with the girl?
"This is a misunderstanding!" Marina shouted, but for a moment of the girl's hesitation, Cecily unleashed the Arrow of Light with ferocity!
This is not right - Marina subconsciously wanted to use her strength to help block it, but the magic could not work! Even if she was clumsy, she could see that it was not right, she pulled the girl who dodged the attack, and when she wanted to make a move, she suddenly felt-
Belly...... Hurt......
At this moment, Cecily jerked them away and ran out the door, and Marina seemed to hear Cecily say sorry.
The girl chased after her, and then, by the time she understood the situation, the conclusion was announced.
After going back, Wendini came over and said, "Have you heard, Sicily is a star general. ”
"I see, I was there...... "Marina still couldn't believe it, "this is so dangerous!
"This has happened many times in the history of the Heavenly Punisher, and perhaps we need to be on high alert as well. Wendini said and jokingly asked, "Marina, aren't you also some kind of enemy?"
"How is that possible...... Marina shook her head with a smile, "It's you, you're also from the northern land of the Xuan Shi Gao Kulai, right?"
"Hahaha, it's not!" Wendini smiled heartily, then slowly fell silent.
"Sicily, what will happen to you?" Marina was still concerned about the issue.
"Probably it will be left to the head of the headquarters to decide, after all, it is a star general. I don't know what terrible things Cecily has done, and we don't know anything about her. Wendini thought for a moment and added, "Clio may also investigate us." ”
"yes. Marina clenched her fists quietly, she could be clumsy in normal times, but she must not be smashed in front of the Eye of Headquarters, she has nothing to do with Cecily, but she can't reveal the identity of the assassin - this is her task, she must distinguish between the priorities.
"Thankfully you're okay, you almost ruined her, didn't you?" though she wasn't sure she would have succeeded...... Wendini was still afraid of her, "doesn't she have a fellow sniper, and according to the situation, she should still be one of the Seven Demons, 'Angry Samael'." ”
"I thought she was watching ......" Marina was disappointed, "so she doesn't like Sun Rin?"
"I don't think so, she's just using you, because Sun Rin also went downstairs with Abel, she just wanted to assassinate Sun Rin, and then she saw your thoughts about Abel and invited you to go down with her, so that we wouldn't doubt her motives for going down. ”
"Why ...... that" Marina was hurt.
"What about you? Did you really confess to Abel?"
“...... Sort of, right?"
"But you see, this is what the Chinese saying goes, a good man has a good reward!" Wendini comforted her, "Did Abel promise you?"
"Isn't he in love, he thinks I'm talking about contracts, isn't he one of the strongest synths...... But this must be a big leap forward, right? The contractual relationship is unique. ”
"That's right! Congratulations, Marina!" After all, she is a trainee of the Heavenly Punisher, and Wendini still sincerely smiled and cheered for the term "Synthetic Beast", "You have a great chance!"
So Marina, who was in mixed feelings about Sicily, finally found a reason to be happy.
