"Sometimes, until the yellow ribbon on the oak tree fades, the lovers can't wait for them to return from the Hollow..." Speaking of this, No. 11's tone paused for a moment. She then looked at Wise again, her eyes seemed a little complicated, and her tone also became a little heavy.
And Wise could also understand the meaning. It was clear that the officers those lovers were waiting for had already sacrificed themselves. At this time, No. 11 continued to speak. "So, unless there is a need for cooperation, I will never take you to our garrison. Can you understand?"
"No. 11, you don't have to say that. To leave some room for the person you like in some aspects is a very normal thing." Wise replied with a smile. There was nothing wrong with his words. After all, No. 11 had already expressed her love for him first. And the words just now had almost already stated the fact that the other party regarded him as a lover.
At this time, No. 11 was taken aback for a moment after hearing Wise's words, but then she chuckled lightly. The curve of her lips was still faint, but it was hard to hide the happiness in her heart. "Mhm. As expected of the person I have my eyes on."
During their conversation, Master Chop also brought up the ramen. After enjoying the ramen together, No. 11 was also ready to go back. The two walked together and came to the street in front of the video store. Because it was already night, there were almost no pedestrians nearby.
Seeing that Wise was about to get home, No. 11 suddenly spoke again. "By the way, did you keep what happened last time a secret?"
The moment No. 11 mentioned it, Wise had already thought of the matter of their last kiss. But then he had another idea, so he deliberately said, "Last time? Ah, you mean that. Of course, I have to keep it a secret. It's just that I seem to have forgotten some of the content of the secret. Can you help me remember?"
As he spoke, Wise deliberately moved a little closer to No. 11. The latter obviously didn't react for a moment, and her body leaned back slightly. But when she realized what Wise was talking about, her small face couldn't help but turn slightly red, but then she nodded again.
"Mhm. It has indeed been a long time since that time." No. 11 said this because according to her observation of the performance of other officers and their lovers, generally, between a couple, every time they meet after a long time, they will kiss. Sometimes more than once, and even sleep together...
Thinking of this, No. 11 couldn't help but put herself and Wise in the picture. But then she shook her head slightly, then quickly reached out and wrapped her arms around Wise's neck. At the same time, she stood on her tiptoes and, without hesitation, kissed him again. After the soft lips touched, No. 11 even immediately sent out her small tongue.
Although he didn't know where No. 11 had learned this from, Wise didn't mind at all. He immediately held her in his arms, one hand around her waist, and the other supporting the back of her head. A long time later, the two slowly separated. No. 11's face was even redder. Before leaving, she didn't forget to remind him again.
"This time's matter, please also don't tell anyone else." After saying this, No. 11 turned and left. And Wise had no intention of having her stay the night at the video store. Not to mention that Anby was still in the store. Just speaking of the defense army that No. 11 belonged to, they probably weren't allowed to stay out all night, right?
Wise thought in his heart. It wasn't until No. 11 had left his sight that he returned to the video store. Other than Little 18, there was no one else on the first floor. It seemed they had all gone to the second floor. Seeing this, Wise also quickly went up and took a shower. Then he returned to the large bed in his room. At this time, he was not the only one on the bed...
One night passed quickly. Nothing happened in the next few days. Just like this, it came to a certain afternoon. Wise suddenly received a message from Qingyi, saying that he had to come to Guangying Plaza right away. There was a very important good thing that needed his help.
Seeing this, Wise was very puzzled. He had wanted to ask clearly, but the latter had always been mysterious and refused to say. Helpless, he could only go to the place first and then see. However, as soon as he arrived at the appointed place, Wise saw Qingyi and Zhu Yuan beside her. Qingyi was staring at him with a grin. Wise suddenly felt that the situation seemed a little strange, but he still walked over in the end. And Qingyi also spoke at this time.
"Oh my, isn't this Wise? I didn't expect to run into you here. But you've come at just the right time. There's a prize quiz. Do you want to participate?"
What do you mean, you didn't expect? Wasn't it you, Qingyi, who sent me a message and called me over?Wise thought to himself. But Zhu Yuan on the side sensed that something was wrong. "Senior, what are you doing?"
Based on her understanding of Senior Qingyi, when the latter showed this expression, it was clear that she was up to no good. But Qingyi completely ignored Zhu Yuan's question and instead spoke to Wise on her own.
"Wise, it's great that you're interested. There's a grand prize waiting for you here~"
"Senior..." Zhu Yuan tried to stop her, but it was useless. Qingyi held up three fingers and then asked, "Wise, how many fingers do you see?"
"Uh, three?" Wise's tone carried a hint of uncertainty. Would Qingyi really ask such a simple question? Or was there some deeper meaning?
But before he could finish thinking, Qingyi clapped her hands at this time, and then showed her signature gesture again. "Congratulations on answering correctly! Your prize is—Officer Zhu Yuan. Hurry up and take her away."
"I can't believe such a simple question just sent me away directly. Senior, where is our friendship?" Hearing Qingyi's words, Zhu Yuan on the side seemed to be quite into the act and actually said such a thing in cooperation. It was even easier to misunderstand. Fortunately, the passers-by around did not notice. Otherwise, it would inevitably attract strange looks.
But speaking of which, were you serious about what you said before, Qingyi? You actually sent Zhu Yuan over!Wise thought to himself. And Qingyi's next words also explained the whole story.
"It seems you have recognized the reality and given up resistance. Excellent. Then the important task of supervising Zhu Yuan's vacation is handed over to you, Wise."
"Vacation? So that's how it is." Having had contact with Tsukishiro Liu before, Wise could instantly understand Zhu Yuan's situation. It was probably that she had been at her work post for too long, resulting in an accumulation of too many vacation days, and now she was being forced by her superiors to take a vacation, right?
"Mhm. You have to be careful. Zhu Yuan is quite cunning. She might pretend to be resting but is actually on duty. Wise, you must be careful to distinguish."
"Understood. I will complete the mission."
"Excellent. Then I'll leave it to you." After handing over the reluctant Zhu Yuan, Qingyi went to be on duty elsewhere.
