A café box in City B.

Severn sat across from the mouse, sipping fragrant coffee.

"Boss, why do you have the leisure to come out and have coffee?" said the mouse.

"It's okay, I just want to experience the life of ordinary people. Severn looked out from the window on the second floor, casually.

"Boss, are you alright?" the mouse looked at Severn in confusion. Their boss is not this kind of leisurely person, she knows all day long to take orders to make money, and she can't wait to get into the money as a whole.

"It's fine. Sai Wen said, then handed Ling Ran's design artwork to the mouse, and continued: "This is a jewelry design drawing, take it to the processor, and the confidentiality work must be done well, and no rumors can be revealed." ”

"Okay, don't worry, boss, the people I'm looking for are all professional, and there will never be problems. The mouse said seriously.

"Well, the money for the purchase of materials will be transferred to you. Severn said.

"Okay. The mouse said.

"Mouse, you are also an old man in the demon soul, have you ever thought that one day you can live a normal life?" said Saiwen suddenly.

"Is it a normal life? I think I've thought about it, but I also know that if there comes a day, I may not be able to adapt to it. I'm used to this kind of bloody life, and if my life was less dangerous and exciting, I would definitely be overwhelmed. The mouse replied truthfully, and at the end showed a helpless wry smile. People like them can't go back to normal life.

"Yes, even if you have concerns, you can't live a normal life. We can't go back. Severn sighed. There was a rare emotion on his face, that is, helplessness and bitterness.

"Is the boss concerned? That's not a good thing. The mouse said worriedly. he

People like us say that they are mercenaries who sound good, and those who say they don't sound good are the executioners of their employers, or even killers. They can be ruthless, they can kill, they can be free to live freely, but they must not have care. Otherwise, it will affect their state of mind, and they will become soft-hearted! And for them, it is a very dangerous thing to become soft-hearted. If there is a soft-hearted and hesitant in the execution of the task, then there is a risk that the mission will fail. Mission failure is secondary, and some people will even lose their lives because of a moment of soft-heartedness.

"Boss, you should know how dangerous it is for us to worry, I want you to be cautious, we don't want to lose you one day!" said the mouse as he looked at Saiwen solemnly. He is older than Saiwen, and he can be regarded as Saiwen's senior, so he is very worried about this little girl who is recognized by the old captain as the successor of the captain.

"I know. Don't worry, I'm not a child-like person, I will balance my feelings. Saiwen also looked at the mouse seriously.

"That's good! But congratulations on having someone you like. Although this kind of thing is unworthy for people like us, it is still very happy to have a sustenance in our hearts. The mouse smiled again. Their lives are full of coldness and ruthlessness, and it's good to have a piece of warmth in their hearts.

"Thank you, please keep it a secret for me, I hope no third person knows about this matter, including my father-in-law. Severn said.

"Okay, I'll keep it a secret for you, and you have to take care of it yourself, don't let us worry. A kind smile appeared on the mouse's thin face. I'm also glad that the little girl can reveal her secret to her brother.

"Well, I will. Saiwen also looked at the other party and said with a smile.

She was very entangled in her heart today. This has basically not happened in her more than twenty years of life, and she really wants to find someone other than Ling Ran to talk to. I just came out to explain things to the mouse, so I said it according to my heart. She knew that in the Demon Soul, the rat was the most trustworthy brother. The mouse did not disappoint her, although he also warned himself and expressed his concern about himself, but he also blessed himself like a brother to be able to have this rare relationship for people like them.

Today, Ling Ran's sudden request to her to keep her by his side made Saiwen very surprised and entangled. Ling Ran was right, staying by Ling Ran's side was indeed her heart's desire.

However, her profession does not allow her to really do what she wants to do according to her heart's desire. Although she was very eager to stay by Ling Ran's side, she wouldn't do it. Therefore, when Ling Ran stared at her with expressionless eyes, it made her very at a loss.

For the first time in her life, she felt helplessness and bitterness. Even when she was trained to kill cruelly at a very young age, even when she killed someone for the first time, she never felt this helplessness and bitterness.

And Ling Ran's gaze at her was so domineering and tough, she had never let anyone stare at her, she felt scared and wanted to dodge. Hehe, she is a mercenary who kills people without blinking, but she is afraid because of the dissatisfied gaze of the person she likes, and she doesn't dare to look directly at her, which is really ridiculous and helpless.

Being able to give a promise that she would appear at any time as long as Ling Ran needed it was already an oath for her. This was the biggest promise she could give to Ling Ran, and she couldn't give it any more. She has her responsibilities, and the world of their mercenaries is cruel. She can't give up the responsibility of leading the demon soul down, and she can't return to the life of a normal person.

Just like the mouse said, even if they really returned, they would feel overwhelmed, right? At that time, would she still be the Saiwen who made Ling Ran feel needed? She would rather endure her thoughts and liking for Ling Ran, and occasionally appear in front of her when Ling Ran needed her, rather than expect to stay with her for a long time.

Because, she is not a normal person at all. She has been on assassination missions since she was 11 years old, her body is full of blood, and her hands have harvested countless lives. She doesn't deserve this precious relationship at all, and she doesn't have the confidence to be able to get this happiness!

Therefore, she just needs to quietly guard Ling Ran, stand quietly in the dark, and watch over her walking in the sun! Ling Ran said that she crawled out of hell and was a person who should have lived on the verge of death. However, only Severn knows what it means to be a person who is on the verge of death, and what it means to be a person who crawls out of hell.

She is the one who really crawled out of hell, she is the one who lives on the verge of death all the time, and she is the one who is really in the darkness! Therefore, she only deserves to stand in the dark, look at the light in her heart, and quietly protect her!

Severn sat in front of the window of the café, staring at the pedestrians and scenery outside, full of thoughts. The mood that had been entangled all morning finally became transparent at this moment, and his eyes gradually became clearer. Yes, she just needs to be a dark guardian, and she doesn't have to worry about Ling Ran's request at all.

The current Ling Ran is no longer the cowardly and soft-hearted Ling Ran of the past. She already has a heart as hard as iron, and she is becoming more and more ruthless. She doesn't need feelings at all, she just needs a companion, a companion who can accompany him to go on firmly. She doesn't need to be hesitant, cowardly or kind partners, she needs a comrade-in-arms with the same firm mind and ruthless wrists as she is.

And she is the only one who can do this! Therefore, she will become the determined comrade-in-arms that Ling Ran needs, a partner who walks side by side, and will never back down!
