At noon on the fourth day, the steam train arrived at the end point: the military base outside the Higanshina district.

Armin's butt shook in the seat for more than ten hours, and to be honest, some of them couldn't bear it, and their buttocks and legs were numb.

Everyone can't stand it anymore, there is no way, their conditions are still very difficult.

When they arrive at the station, everyone gets off the train.

In the midst of the procession to greet the pre-drafts, Armin saw a familiar man beckoning.

"Long time no see, Armin, Mikasa." Ian stood in front of him, smiling.

Behind him were a group of giants, small giants, each on all fours like a wild beast, carrying cargo equipment on their backs like baskets.

"Ian... You're here! Armin said happily.

"I'm here to greet you, the shipyard got the list in advance in March, and Alan is also in the shipyard, so you haven't seen him for a long time." Ian smiled, "By the way, Mikasa, Eren said he misses you a lot." ”

"Allen—" Mikasa pursed her lips and pulled up her collar to cover the lower half of her face.

Ian smiled: "You guys go and rest first, after taking the train for so long, it will definitely be uncomfortable, go and have a meal, lunch has been prepared for you, we still have to unload here, and there are some handover procedures to be handled, we will leave tomorrow morning, take you to the shipyard." ”

"Really... Then we'll go and rest first..."Armin scratched his head.

But Mikasa was obviously unable to walk, and she asked in a low voice, "Alan, he... Did he really say that? ”

"Say what?" Ian found Mikasa's reaction funny.

Mikasa's voice was as thin as a mosquito's chirping, and he bowed his head and said, "Say... Say miss me? ”

Ian whispered, "Really, he's been tired lately, and he hasn't had time to rest, and I can tell that he's actually very tired, and he must really want to rest in someone's arms for a while." ”

Ian's words, like demonic whispers, echoed in Mikasa's ears.

Her love brain automatically replaced "someone" with "Mikasa", and Eren was tired, he missed Mikasa very much, and wanted to rest in Mikasa's arms.

Mikasa's originally sad eyes gradually sharpened, and even his momentum changed.

"Let's go, Armin, go eat." Mikasa pulls Armin to the cafeteria.

"By the way, if you want to take a bath, go to the east, after six o'clock in the evening, there is hot water supply there." Ian beckoned goodbye.

After waiting for the predrafts to go to dinner, he and Hannes head to an area of the base that is not open to the predrafts.

It was surrounded by heavy guards, giants and soldiers, and at the same time surrounded the area, a ten-meter-high wall, sealing off the place.

Chains sealed the only door, and Levi and Mick Sakalias were already waiting in front of it.

No one spoke, silently waiting for the door to open amid the grinding of chains.

Pushing open the iron gate, there was only one house inside, and there were dozens of people guarding inside.

Through the guards, they came to the door, which was a prison for important "war criminals".

Inside the iron railing, the heir of the Armored Giant, Reiner Brown, and the heir of the oversized giant, Bertot Hoover, are locked in this place with their hands and feet in chains.

They were distracted and lay in bed in great depression.

Although they were shackled, they had everything they needed in their cell, a bed, a washstand, a desk...

Aside from the iron railing, it looked like a normal room, with good lighting, and high windows out of their reach.

In order to take care of their psychology and prevent them from having suicidal tendencies, we tried to meet their needs in life and provided them with some entertaining books.

It has been eleven months since the capture of these two Malai fighters.

In addition to the torture of them in the first few months, the follow-up has maintained "humanitarian" care, and last October, after the establishment of the Higanshina military base, the two men were escorted to this special prison to be guarded, surrounded by soldiers who were equipped with special tranquilizer guns and not equipped with live ammunition.

I got a lot of information from their mouths, and they couldn't use the power of giants, after all, they were just immature children, and in nearly a year, everything that could come out of their mouths was taken out.

This also gave Parady Island a basic understanding of the situation in the outside world, the map, and the combat power of the Marais government.

"Let them out, I'd like to talk to them for a while." Ian ordered.

The soldier in charge nodded, took out the key and opened the door.

The two men were held hostage and stood up, and Ian and Ian went outside the cell.

The facilities inside the fence are also very complete, the greenery is very good, the flowers are full of flowers, and there are pavilions for resting.

Ian sat in the pavilion with the two of them chatting, while Levi and Mick stood in the doorway of the cell, quietly examining Marlai's warriors.

"What I'm going to inherit is the power of the armored giant, that blonde imp?" Mick asked in a low voice.

"That's right." Levi responded: "The super-large giant will be inherited by Hannes, and the two of you will take the Navy No. 1 as the owners of the power of the giant, this is the list of heirs who will be determined after dozens of discussions." ”

"Tonight—" Mick looked at his hand.

"Your practice is inside the shipyard, Hannes, after tonight, he'll be back in Ubitea and go there to practice the oversized giants, and he'll be with Erwyn and come back when the ship is finished." Levi hugged his chest: "Originally, I was supposed to inherit the armored giant, but the Ackerman clan seems to have no way to become giants." ”

"But... I still don't understand why Hannes inherited the super-large giant, there are many better candidates than him in the legion. ”

"The reason is very simple, he is loyal enough, the task of the super-large giant, is just to destroy, and now he, no matter what orders are given to him, he will carry it out, that guy has become a 'fanatic'."

"That's right."

...

Over there, Ian is talking to Reiner and Bertolt.

"You two, do you have any wishes?" He asked.

Reiner and Bertott looked up numbly and looked at Ian's face.

"Actually, we don't want to go to war with Marais, but we still want to settle our conflicts in a peaceful way, so can you tell me, do you have any wishes? I would like to know a little bit more about how you live in Marais. ”

Reiner and Bertolt looked at each other and opened their mouths.

They hadn't spoken for a long time, and their pronunciation was a little obscure and hoarse.

"I want to..."

"What do you think?"

"Go home..."
