At that time, Zhang Yu was an arbitration executor and belonged to a "purge force" that was completely independent of the political structure.
Their existence has only one meaning...that is to find the disciples and annihilators hidden around the world, and then completely eliminate them like white blood cells killing bacteria.
At first, Zhang Yu and Jin Yuan completed all tasks very well under the leadership of Li Boan.
However, after a beheading operation, Zhang Yu not only experienced a serious decline in various combat statistics, but also often experienced symptoms such as being absent-minded and talking to himself.
So Li Boan introduced Yingzi to Zhang Yu.
At that time, Yingzi was still an ordinary psychiatrist. In her eyes, Zhang Yu was just a soldier who suffered "psychological trauma" while performing tasks on the front line. She did not know Zhang Yu's specific identity.
And Zhang Yu... only thinks that Yingzi is a beautiful psychiatrist.
…
When we first met, Zhang Yu was dressed like a big boss who came to discuss business. His bow tie was tight, his shoulders were tight, and his leather shoes were shiny. This outfit made people feel very decent, but... only what he wore
Only then did I realize how uncomfortable it was to wear it like this.
Even though a long time had passed, Zhang Yu still remembered the first time he met Yingzi on a windless afternoon, about 1:30 in the afternoon.
Yingzi's house is located next to a country path in the Erub Muye area, next to a natural lake.
Maybe it's because girls have a "slower" feeling about summer than men. In short...when Zhang Yu entered the room dressed like this, his first feeling was stuffy heat.
Unbearable... suffocating heat.
The person who received Zhang Yu was Yingzi's assistant, an elderly mother-in-law.
Zhang Yu doesn't know much about Yingzi's personal information, but he does know some people and things related to Yingzi.
Just like this old mother-in-law... She was one of the few elderly survivors after the Central Veil disaster... The disaster took away her family and turned her into a wanderer. Fortunately, she met Yingzi,
This led to the current "job" of "serving tea and water" to guests.
…
The wait is long.
Although Zhang Yu was given a long leave, he still remembered his comrades and Jin Yuan's recklessness.
Even if the scenery outside the window is picturesque, it is difficult for him to feel calm.
Fortunately... Yingzi didn't keep Zhang Yu waiting for too long.
After sitting hunched over in the living room for about twenty minutes, Yingzi walked downstairs and entered the living room.
When he first met Yingzi, Zhang Yu was actually a little nervous... It was a kind of nervousness that made him feel very inexplicable... Not only did he almost knock over the water glass, he also stood up hurriedly like a boss, barely saluting.
.
When this scene fell in Yingzi's eyes, Yingzi was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help covering her mouth and secretly laughing.
Probably realizing that something was wrong with her actions, Zhang Yu blushed slightly, and so did Yingzi... She rarely was rude in front of her guests, especially this kind of "smirking" made her feel embarrassed.
…
"Please sit down, don't be formal."
Zhang Yu sat down, this time still leaning forward, not daring to be too presumptuous.
His nervousness was quickly noticed by Sakurako.
So Yingzi said: "You can relax a little. This will help our subsequent communication."
Relax... Zhang Yu is very sensitive to this word... The first thing he thought of was not comfort... but a very bad experience.
Relax……
Yes.
"Relax...it'll be fine."
This sounds very familiar.
Zhang Yu remembered it, and the things he had tried hard to forget or that could be avoided were awakened again.
…
It was after a mission that Zhang Yu, Jin Yuan and five other comrades sat around a very ornately carved dining table.
The table was filled with fine wine and delicacies...but these things were not originally prepared to entertain them.
A few hours ago, those sitting here were some of the core members of the annihilationists.
They chatted and laughed here, feasting, enjoying food and wine while listening to classical music in an elegant manner.
What a decent scene.
At least that was the case before Zhang Yu and the others broke in.
But now, the blood stains on the ground have not been completely wiped away, and the smell of gunpowder smoke is still mixed in the air.
Zhang Yu tried to eat a flat-mouthed snail, but the snail meat that should have been delicious was like a piece of gall... Zhang Yu spit out the snail meat.
When the comrades sitting opposite saw this move, they all laughed.
"You should eat some meat, most people won't like that stuff at all." Sitting across from him was a man numbered a93.
Except for Jin Yuan, everyone is a number to Zhang Yu.
But a93 is different. Zhang Yu prefers to call him Brother A Fei rather than his serial number.
Because when he was injured, he would always shout something like: "Fei Fei Fei Fei Fei." Then he would laugh and fight back with a fierce look on his face.
"We should go back." Zhang Yu did not touch the meat on the plate, probably because he saw an ancient irregular tooth mark on the piece of meat... He could imagine an ugly man using a fork.
Pick up the whole piece of meat and put it in your mouth.
But Brother Afei shook the glass of wine and said, "No, no, no, don't be in a hurry, just relax! We haven't seen each other for a long time, so of course we have to have a good drink here!"
Zhang Yu was a little helpless, he knew Brother A Fei's habits.
He has extraordinary commanding abilities, but he also has some bad habits...
For example... he likes to search for something edible from the enemy's corpse and stuff it into his mouth.
The last time Brother Afei found a piece of unfinished chocolate, he kindly broke off half of it and gave it to Zhang Yu...but Zhang Yu didn't even pick up the chocolate, because he felt that anything dug out from the dead was unlucky.
Now, they are sitting on chairs with bullet holes still on them. Although the dining table in front of them has been cleaned, there are still blood stains in many places.
Is this kind of occasion suitable for gathering to share feelings?
"Come on, brother! Relax!" Brother Afei stood up and poured wine from the bottle for Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu glanced at Jin Yuan aside.
Jin Yuan was busy eating, and his character was not as sensitive as Zhang Yu.
But when he found Zhang Yu looking at him, Jin Yuan gave him a look that meant: 'Don't spoil everyone's fun!'
Of course... Zhang Yu's understanding is... don't make the captain unhappy.
So Zhang Yu forced herself to calm down, trying to forget the bloody scenes he had just seen, then picked up the wine glass and forced a smile.
"Okay, listen to Brother A Fei!"
Brother Afei finally showed a satisfied smile. He put down the bottle, raised his glass and said, "Everyone..."
"Whoosh!"
Zhang Yu was stunned because he saw Brother Afei's face suddenly twisting to one side at an incredible speed, and the blood was spread all over the dining table.
When he fell down on the table, Kanehara had already stood up and picked up a weapon to fight back.
Zhang Yu has not yet recovered from the scene in front of him.
Although he had bad habits, Brother Afei, who led his brother into a trance, was no longer alive... The flesh on his face exploded, exposing the structure of the mechanical prosthetic body under the skin... When he saw the luster of the metal,
Zhang Yu still thought for a moment that Brother A Fei would get up after cursing.
But until Jin Yuan pulled him behind him and Zhang Yu's body instinct began to be activated and he joined the battle, Brother A Fei never got up again.
The price for enjoying the fruits of victory regardless of occasion...is death...
Relax……
When Zhang Yu heard this word, he clenched his fists subconsciously.
His eyes also became dangerous.
Fortunately, Yingzi was very keenly aware of Zhang Yu's changes, so she changed her word.
"Calm down! This is my home, not a battlefield. You can look out the window. The children are playing in the lake. Do you like water?"
Zhang Yu's tense nerves did not relax, and he looked towards the lake.
lake……
Lake means water, water...is the fundamental guarantee for survival.
But in Zhang Yu's impression, water... is always the most dangerous thing.
…
"Did I just ask you to check the room!!!" Kanehara grabbed b13's collar and roared!
b13 is a very young warrior. He was originally a reserve member of the Interstellar Army, and his combat parameters are very high. However, because of his slightly withdrawn personality, one of his collaboration statistics failed to meet the standard, so he was recommended to the Arbiter.
But after becoming the Arbiter, b13 would still find it difficult to adapt to team action, so no one was willing to accept him at first.
Until he met Brother Afei.
b13 was also injured in the battle just now, and his face was too pale due to excessive blood loss.
Zhang Yu was guarding the entrance.
The annihilationists counterattacked with such ferocity that Zhang Yu had almost no room to breathe.
He kept aiming and shooting...aiming and shooting...
…
When they escaped from the villa and ran towards the evacuation point, the enemy's pursuit still did not stop.
Lights are constantly shining in the forest.
Every time a tree is taken away or a person falls down…
When Zhang Yu and the others finally arrived at the evacuation point, Zhang Yu saw a vast white lake.
The lake at night should have been calm and graceful, but the lake in front of Zhang Yu was restless and dangerous.
The Hunter that came to assist in the evacuation had already crashed, and its remains were continuously hit and torn apart in the water.
At that moment, Zhang Yu realized that death was approaching. He threw away his weapon that had no ammunition, raised his head and looked at the moonlight... and his heart suddenly calmed down...
"Tomorrow...please come in your pajamas, okay?" Yingzi warned.
Zhang Yu nodded silently.
On the way back, Zhang Yu looked at his hands.
There is still residual warmth there.
It is not the residual warmth left by being tolerated, but the residual warmth left by tolerating and protecting others.
When those small hands were put between Zhang Yu's hands, Zhang Yu finally calmed down...
