--What exactly is going on? !
Xiao Lin covered his head and tried desperately to remember.
He remembered that last night, he prepared hot tea in the room and set up a silent barrier to wait for Tazmi to come to him.
"You came."
"I am coming."
"You shouldn't have come."
"I'm already here!"
Yes, for this classic line, he also deliberately used language to guide Tazmi to cooperate with him.
after……
The passionate and impulsive Tazmi asked loudly: "Xiao Lin, why did you defect, answer me?!"
Are you a ninja desperate to find your companions?
Xiao Lin wanted to complain, but he still said what he repeated several times, "I did not join the night attack. It was just your wishful thinking from beginning to end."
"Are you kidding..."
Tazmi clenched her fists and gritted her teeth in anger.
Xiao Lin smiled softly and said, "Do you still remember what I told you? Being a killer can't save the imperial capital, and the people who control the night attack are not good people either."
"But you said we were good people."
"That's why I didn't expose their information, isn't it?"
"..."
Although I felt very unhappy, I couldn't find any reason to refute it.
After all, there are indeed no wanted notices posted in the Imperial Capital for him, Leonai, and Lubbock.
Xiao Lin poured him a cup of tea and said: "To answer your question just now, why do you want to join the Hunters... My answer is, for my ambition."
"Ambition?"
"Yes, I have the same purpose as you. I also want to overthrow the corrupt rule of the empire. It's just that the methods we choose and the positions we represent are different. That's all."
Xiaolin's words made Tazmi think.
methods and positions.
This is what Xiaolin taught him during the night raid. He is not a night raider or a hunter, he is on the people's side.
——In this case, you will be disliked by both parties.
You will bear a bad reputation and will never be able to get over it, but this is nothing compared to what you want to save!
"Could it be that……?!"
"Yes, just as you thought."
Xiaolin's smile was very plain and gentle, but the more it looked like this, the more shocked Tazmi was.
Actually thinking about changing something from within.
"So, I am not your enemy, but your companion...at least, a traveler with the same aspirations and the same path."
"Does it mean we have the same goal?"
The doubts in his heart were answered, and Tazmi finally let go of his grudge, but at the same time, he also felt more.
"...Is it worth it?"
"Tazmi, let me tell you one more thing."
Xiao Lin's expression became serious and he said firmly: "No matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as you go in the right direction, no matter how bumpy it is, you will be closer to happiness than standing still."
If Brand is a moral mentor, then Xiaolin is a life mentor. He has given him a lot of help on this road of life and has always influenced him.
Tazmi left, meditating all the time and looking deeply enlightened.
Xiao Lin raised his cup and took a sip of hot tea, with a satisfied smile on his lips.
He wasn't lying.
He did join the Hunters out of ambition and to overthrow the empire, and they were indeed like-minded travelers.
The only difference is that he didn't say that there was a third major force behind him.
Tazmi, you must convey the information to everyone in the night attack. I am looking forward to it.
With this thought, he fell asleep contentedly.
...and what happened after that?
"Why is Esdeath in my bed?!"
"Master Xiaolin, please correct me. You are not in your own bed, but in someone else's bed."
Liu Zi's words made Xiao Lin couldn't help but shudder.
The resentment is too deep!
"Miss Liuzi, I wonder if you can explain to me why I sleep with General Esdeath?"
"Then let me explain."
Maybe there was too much movement, which woke up Esdeath from her sleep. She stretched out her beautiful curves and exposed a large area of skin at the same time.
Xiao Lin's mouth moved slightly.
This General Esdeath is too bold. Like the carefree Leonai, doesn't she mind having her body exposed by other men?
"Captain, could you please explain?"
"Because Xiaolin, you are too tempting."
"……Um???"
"Because Xiaolin, you are too tempting."
Thinking he didn't hear clearly, Esdeath repeated it again.
But what kind of explanation is this?
"I'm sorry, I do not understand."
"In general, Xiaolin, you exude a very seductive aura, and I can't help but take action against you."
An alluring scent?
It must be something extraordinary to attract Esdeath.
ice? water? Divine power?
hiss--
Wait, he seems to understand something.
Taking a deep breath, the appearance of some stupid goddess subconsciously appeared in his mind.
It is you! ! ! ! ! !
This situation was completely beyond his imagination. Why did he always cause trouble for himself in inexplicable places?
MD, Aqua!
"Then why are you on the captain's bed?"
"Because the bed in my room is quite big."
Are you Brother Jie?
In fact, except for Esdeath's luxurious room, the other members all have single beds, which cannot sleep two people at all.
"Miss Liuzi, why didn't you stop it?"
"Master Xiaolin said that no matter who comes in, don't stop him. Have you forgotten it?"
You just said that to receive Tazmi, okay?
Xiao Lin really wanted to tell Liu Zi now, but at this time, he must not let Esdeath know that he had communicated with Tazmi last night, so he could only forcefully endure this embarrassing loss.
"Speaking of which, Xiaolin, do you know why?"
Esdeath seemed curious.
"When we first met, I was inexplicably close to you. Obviously, if anyone talks to me or confronts me, I will be taken to the torture room and tortured."
"Probably because of this."
Xiao Lin raised the blue crystal necklace on his chest.
It exuded a strong aura of water, which made Esdeath understand why she was so abnormal before, and she always felt that the necklace could bring her great benefits.
"Okay! Xiaolin, give it to me."
"Um?"
"In exchange, you can choose whatever I have, and it doesn't matter if you take them all."
Although Esdeath always distributes money to civilians and subordinates, the trophies she collects from her years of fighting are still very objective. In her opinion, they should be enough to exchange for necklaces.
Xiao Lin was also entangled.
What should I do, should I give it to her?
If you give her the necklace, it will probably increase her favorability. When the time comes, she will be tolerated by the other party if she is caught doing small tricks secretly...
He handed over the necklace tremblingly, but the next second, he took it back very quickly.
"Sorry, I still can't exchange."
This necklace has helped him many times, so it cannot be exchanged.
Well, it's definitely not because of Aqua!
Absolutely not!
"Really, that's really a pity."
After Esdeath saw Xiaolin's extremely gentle smile, she felt a strange throbbing in her heart. She couldn't help but ask, "It seems like this was given to you by someone important."
Xiao Lin smiled and replied: "It was a gift given to me by some hopeless fool, so I cherish it very much."
"Yeah."
For some reason, that gentle smile made Esdeath a little irritable.
Let’s put the necklace aside for now.
Xiao Lin said seriously: "Captain, you must never sleep with a strange boy in the future!"
"Why? Living and eating together is also a way for bosses and subordinates to get close to each other, right?" Esdeath, who has a military personality, doesn't care at all.
"No, no, no, no matter how you think about it, it's not true. And if Tazmi knew about it, she would be angry."
"is that so?"
Esdeath cares about Tazmi's thoughts.
What Xiaolin never expected was that she actually asked Tazmi about it in person in order to confirm.
"It doesn't matter at all, I don't care at all!"
Tazmi raised her thumb and showed an extremely sunny and pure smile, but in Xiaolin's eyes, that smile was full of schadenfreude no matter how you looked at it.
You don't mind a hammer!
I am a pure love god of war, and I will never be treated like a slut!
