"Let me introduce you."
Najexitan pointed to the man and woman behind her and said: "They are the new companions, Lightning [Susano'o] and Chelsea, who is also an assassin."
"Hello, hello." Chelsea greeted them with a smile, earning smiles from everyone.
"Well, let's wait for this welcome ceremony."
Najexitan glared at the sleepy and hungover Night Raid crowd, and scolded them majestically: "You guys, you really relaxed after I left. You don't even know if someone touches the base camp, and you let outsiders do it to you." Wipe your butt?!”
"This, this..."
Everyone in Night Raid lowered their heads, looking a little embarrassed.
But it’s not entirely their fault.
Too many things have happened recently, my companions have left one after another, and no one has come back.
When Tazmi returned safe and sound, the others couldn't control themselves. They wanted to celebrate and vent their depression, but they didn't expect the enemy to take advantage of them.
"But I didn't expect that it was Xiaolin who was helping..."
Najiexitan touched her chin thoughtfully.
Just now she saw through the telescope when she was in the sky, it was Xiaolin who killed the doctor and avoided casualties in the night attack.
But what the reason was, she couldn't figure it out.
After Xiaolin left, Najehitan hurried back to the Revolutionary Army headquarters. While taking the Teigu back, she also applied for the headquarters to send manpower to increase combat power, so she was completely unaware of what happened in the meantime.
"Boss, Xiaolin is not an outsider!"
Leonai excitedly reported to Najiexitan, repeating what Xiaolin and Tazmi had said, and slightly exaggerating Xiaolin's ambitions.
Najiexitan sighed softly after hearing this.
She knew that there were many people with lofty ideals who had the same idea as Xiao Lin, but without exception, they either failed and were assassinated, or they turned their backs to the revolutionary army after realizing that it was impossible.
Xiaolin's approach has no chance of success.
"By the way, Leonai, why are you so happy?" Ma Yin stamped her feet angrily and said, "I don't know what Xiaolin's purpose was, but he did betray us!"
"Ma Yin is right."
Najiexitan also nodded in agreement and said: "It is already clear that Xiaolin is not an enemy. Likewise, he will not be our companion. We can try our best to fight for it, but when we have to confront him, we must not Show mercy, understand?!”
"Understood!"xN
Seeing how seriously everyone looked, Chelsea was curious, raised her hand and asked, "I'm sorry, can anyone tell me, who is Xiaolin...?"
She was a newcomer, so naturally she didn't know anything about Xiao Lin.
"Xiao Lin is our companion...originally."
Amid everyone's disappointed and angry expressions, Najexitan told Chelsea all the information about Xiao Lin.
"In other words, you have high expectations for him, right?"
"That's right."
Leonai gritted his teeth and said with hatred: "That guy... you must give him a severe lesson next time you meet him!"
More expectation, more disappointment.
Although everyone in Night Raid is still immature, their expressions don't look fake at all.
This made Chelsea even more interested.
late at night
When everyone in Night Raid changed campsites and fell asleep after a tiring day, Chelsea quietly ran out alone.
"I can't help it, I'm also very interested in that person."
A cunning look flashed in the girl's eyes.
When he arrived at the capital city, he transformed into a kitten and quickly slipped into the royal city while the guards were not paying attention.
"What, the defense is so lax?"
"No wonder even Tazmi took the opportunity to slip away."
Chelsea the kitten showed a very humane expression of disdain. The rubble of the high wall beneath her body seemed to be a solid wall, but its purpose of existence was entirely just a good-looking decoration.
"What should we do next?"
"Why don't we go directly to Esdeath? As long as we successfully assassinate her, the subsequent missions will definitely be much easier."
"No, forget it"
"Leone said that Esdeath is very strong and that the beast-eared girl has keen intuition. I still trust her judgment here and it's better not to cause trouble."
After turning into a kitten, it is very flexible and can run on the wall without attracting the attention of others.
Xiao Lin was found soon.
"That's him. He's quite handsome."
In order to give Chelsea a more accurate understanding, everyone in Night Raid drew a portrait of Xiao Lin for her.
But the painting skills of Night Raid Everyone are impressive, and it doesn’t look like that at all.
He recognized Xiao Lin because standing next to him was the cute Liu Zi in a gorgeous dress.
Based on this, I found out that this man was Xiao Lin.
Xiao Lin, who was leaning against the window, looked out and looked at Chelsea on the tile wall.
One person and one cat, their eyes meet.
Chelsea was not nervous. She behaved like a kitten, looking directly at Xiao Lin and saying "meow~" softly.
This means being a little wary but also wanting to get close.
Xiao Lin thought for a while, his eyes lit up, he seemed to understand something, and turned back to the house.
"What is he going to do?"
In doubt, Chelsea saw Xiao Lin coming to the window again, holding a glass of milk in his hand.
Then he reached towards himself, making a gesture of teasing a kitten.
I don't know why, but there was a sense of intimacy suddenly coming from Xiao Lin's body, causing Chelsea to subconsciously take a few steps forward.
Then he suddenly stopped and couldn't help but shake his head.
This feeling is so strange.
Chelsea was wary and slowly approached Xiao Lin.
It was a little strange, but it happened to be similar to the way a kitten wanted to get close but didn't dare, so it didn't arouse suspicion.
Xiao Lin poured some milk into his hand and gently placed it in front of the kitten.
"Don't you know cats can't drink milk?"
Although she kept slandering her in her heart, she still lowered her head and licked Xiao Lin's fingers.
A slight tickling was transmitted from his fingertips to his brain, making Xiaolin couldn't help but hum softly, and then he stroked the kitten's back even more.
Chelsea didn't resist and let him touch her.
At this time, Lan knocked on the door.
…
"Lan, you should have realized that the decaying empire is hopeless!"
"The Axis Cult... have you heard of this name?"
"Join us, Lan, I need you."
"I see, just like what Tazmi said, he did not join the empire, and the reason why he did not join the night attack is because he is actually a member of the Axis Cult."
Najiexitan was right, Xiao Lin was not an enemy, but he was not a companion either.
At least the Axis sect she knew had been active recently, and it seemed they were making some big move to recruit followers. Originally, the Revolutionary Army had a good relationship with them and had a tendency to pull them into the same camp, but for some reason they suddenly became cold.
It is probably related to the previous armed uprising of the Anning Church.
Lan left, Xiao Lin failed to persuade him, sighed and looked a little disappointed. He hugged Chelsea again and said something that made her body almost tense.
"Are you right, lovely Miss Killer?"
"...Exposed?!"
Chelsea's good qualities as a killer prevented her from appearing strange. She and Mao Mao raised their heads and looked at Xiao Lin with ignorance in their eyes.
They looked at each other for a long time.
Xiao Lin blinked: "Well... Sure enough, it's just a kitten. I worry too much."
"call--"
Chelsea immediately relaxed.
"Did you think I would say that?"
"——?!!!"
Chelsea's heart lifted again.
But she knew clearly that she must not show any abnormalities. The competition at this time was psychological quality.
"Hehehe, come on, read with me."
Xiaolin chuckled lightly and raised the kitten's paws with both hands to stand upright, exposing her shameful part.
Shaking and saying:
"The holy fire shines brightly, the holy fire shines brightly, all my children, meow meow meow meow!"
"……Aha?"
"This guy must be an idiot to play with a kitten like this."
"How rude, I'm not an idiot."
"……Eh?"
"Eh?... I was surprised that she looked confused. I didn't expect that a kitten could make such a human expression, unless she was not a cat but a human."
Xiaolin scratched her chin with his index finger, using a very professional technique, and said with a smile: "Are you right, Miss Chelsea?"
