23. This king didn't force you.
Nance was lost in thought.
There is a wind blowing on the sea, faintly sending a smell of sea tide.
When the dust settled, the police officers of the Shin-Yokohama Police Station came one after another, and used a cordon to stop the citizens who were watching the excitement outside, and the reporters who followed were also stopped in the distance.
The riots were so sensitive that the police did not dare to say anything, so they could only maintain the chaotic order while repeating the same words to the cameras.
"This is a very bad terrorist attack, the situation is now under control, and more detailed information needs to be investigated......"
Nance turned his gaze to the chaotic Lesson Nine: "They're ants that have been stepped on. Queen, you are a god, right? ”
"Although they were not killed by the king's own hands, it is no problem to count them on the king." Ximena glanced at him faintly, her cold lips slightly opened, "You should be glad that you climbed faster, otherwise you would have been trampled to death." ”
"Am I that weak......" Nance scratched her hair.
Ximena looked at the falling snowflakes and replied seriously, "You are really, really weak. ”
“……”
"But it was a good day."
"Thank you."
"Do you think this king is ruthless?"
"Sort of." Nance nodded.
"Hey, look." Ximena stretched out her hand and framed a small piece of scenery on the surface of the sea with her fingers, "What about your current vision, you can only see such a large area, understand?" And what about this king...... In a very high, very high place. ”
As she spoke, she raised her hand, pointed to the sky, and smiled, "This king is above, and the vision of one person is greater than that of all the people on the earth combined. ”
"What exactly can you see from that high place?" Nance asked seriously.
Ximena's peerless eyebrows and eyes revealed a clear brilliance, and she replied lightly: "This king has witnessed the moment when a huge prime-aged star collapses and annihilates at the edge of the black hole horizon, admired the brilliant brilliance of the supernova remnants in the Pillar of Creation, and even witnessed how Voyager 1 was swallowed up by turbulence in the Kuiper Belt. All those moments that felt great at the time were later just insignificant moments in the long river of time that would eventually pass, just as ......"
Her voice paused, and she reached out of her umbrella to catch a snowflake, silently watching as the snowflake melted by the temperature of her palm.
"It's like the disappearance of this snowflake."
Nance stared blankly at the Queen.
Her eyes looked around the other side of Victoria Harbour, and her beautiful face did not show the slightest trace of time. After looking at it for a while, he wondered, "You are so powerful, why can't you get along with me...... ordinary person"
"This king is boring." Ximena shrugged her shoulders unladylikely, "Besides, the way you appeared is very interesting, there is actually something in your body that can shield the spiritual invasion of this king, so how can this king let you go?" ”
This gesture is not noble and arrogant at all, even a little neurotic, but it is very cute.
Nance also learned from her and shrugged her shoulders: "Be careful that my ant climbs on you." ”
"Before that, I'll invite this king to eat a bowl of noodles." The queen raised her legs and walked forward, "While there is still time, this king will tell you the cause of this incident." ”
Nance froze in place.
"Huh?" Ximena looked back at him, a fierce gleam in her eyes, "Not happy? ”
"Well, it's not ......" Nance blushed and said weakly, "I don't have any money." ”
The scene was quiet for a while.
It's so quiet that Nansi wants to jump directly into the sea.
The snowflakes fell silently between the two for a long time, and finally, the queen laughed out loud without caring for the image.
"Hahaha......"
Listening to her heavenly laughter, Nance gritted her teeth and repeated, "I really don't have any money, even if you laugh louder, I won't have ......"
"Diaomin!"
Shimena scolded him.
Turning around, she continued to walk forward, the hem of her black skirt swimming gently behind her like a fish.
The crisp sound reached Nance's ears far away.
"Today, this king has taken care of you—"
The cold wind is howling and the traffic is shuttling.
It was still overcast, and Nance, holding an umbrella, walked with the queen through the cramped streets of Shin-Yokohama, and the commuter tram on the viaduct rumbled overhead.
Not long after leaving, the two casually entered a small restaurant.
It's a restaurant that sells stewed bone broth, and the tables and chairs are fairly clean and not too greasy.
Nance ordered a pot of soup, two bowls of noodles and some side dishes, wiped the table and chairs again, and invited the queen to sit down.
She had a slender figure and a delicate face that was perfect enough to make people charmed, and the shopkeeper secretly glanced at her several times when he was ordering, and he must have wondered how such a noble and beautiful woman could come to a small street shop like his.
While waiting for the food to be served, Shimena asked.
"Do you know where you're in?"
Nance, who was sitting across from her, recalled the dilapidated environment of Lesson 9 and the rout after the riot, and wondered, "Isn't Lesson 9 not treated well by the cabinet?" ”
"On the surface, it won't, but behind the scenes, it's already giving up the ninth lesson." Shimena replied as she leaned back in her chair.
Nance nodded thoughtfully: "What does it have to do with the secret you said?" ”
"That's right."
"Lesson 9 is an institution that is destined to be destroyed, so the funds are very small, so it will not be able to repair the infrastructure and maintain a higher standard of security......" Nance frowned, and said slowly as he thought, "That's why the slum kid who just graduated and has no background will be the section leader, and the more capable Shi Qi only became an adjutant because of his big background." ”
"You're not stupid to figure that out." Ximena looked at him with the eyes of a carpenter, "This king wiped out the previous Nance, originally thinking of using your body as a puppet to do this, but it happened that you appeared. ”
Nance was silent for a few seconds and sighed, "I'm really unlucky......"
"You can choose not to accept this fate." Ximena said indifferently, her voice in a trance from a distant distance.
How about not accepting it?
Nance pondered the question.
"This king can take back the Leviathan Heart and the Holy Spear, and find a new body for your current consciousness, so that you can live as an ordinary person." Ximena looked down at him with her usual indifferent attitude, "But because this matter is extremely secret, and no more than 10 people in the entire empire know about it, this king needs to completely erase this part of your memory before you can be set free." Would you like to? ”
Nance looked at her silently.
The queen's silhouette has a looming shadow due to the yellow powdery light behind it. He looked at her for a long time, the dust breaking away from the ceiling and dancing in the light.
After a while, Nance replied, "No, I don't think it's impossible." ”
If it had been a few hours ago, he would have gladly agreed.
But after experiencing the riots of Lesson 9 and seeing hundreds of people disappear in an instant, he felt that in such a world, ordinary people may not even be a person in the eyes of the strong.
Ordinary people without strength, even if they can live, they can only survive.
Ximena stared at him and said solemnly, "This king didn't force you. ”
“……”
Nance couldn't help but mutter.
Is the queen who scared me in the morning and didn't even ask me anything to stuff me with your twin sister?
