"Leo!" Elaine rushed up and wrapped the golden lion in a towel, and carefully picked up Leo Porter: "Are you okay?"
"Elaine?" Leo, who had just woken up, was still a little confused: "Why are you here?"
He only remembered the game this morning. He remembered that he was hit hard by "Iron Mask No. 9" at the end of the game, and then he fell down and passed out.
Really? Because he was severely injured and unconscious, he was sent back to the hotel. Only then did Leo realize that the room he was in was the "medical room" where he had been staying all along.
"Sister Xue Rui actually let you in." The lion man said angrily, "She is so disgusting. She shouldn't have let you see what's here."
"Okay, okay, don't talk, just lie down." Elaine carried Leo and moved to the hospital bed aside, and slowly placed the lion-man boy on the bed, as if placing a fragile glass product.
"Well------" Leoport elongated his face and his tone.
"What, what?" Elaine frowned, feeling uncomfortable being stared at.
"But fortunately, you're here." Leo grinned, his face was pale and sickly, but his smile was very sweet.
The white bear man felt as if his heart had stopped beating for half a beat, and he quickly looked away in embarrassment.
"Hey, you should have your own room in the hotel, right?" The lion boy said again: "I don't want to stay in such a shameful place, please take me to your room, please?"
"That's it, can I take you out of the medical room like this?" Elaine hesitated.
"It's okay. Everything that needs to be cured has been cured. What can't be cured can't be cured even if you stay here." Leo was forcing a smile: "It's useless to stay here. Let's go?"
"But Snow, Miss Snow Richard"
"As long as I don't leave the hotel, I'll be fine. If an emergency occurs, hotel employees will naturally come to rescue me."
"Well, since you said so," Elaine carefully picked up the lion boy again. In fact, Leo was only wearing a pair of underpants at this time, and was only wrapped in the big bath towel that Elaine had just brought. He was wrapped in the towel and hugged like this.
When he wakes up, he looks like a big baby.
"Well, I really should go on my own, put me down." Leo said with a blush.
"No. You have to save your strength." Elaine took an unusually tough attitude and walked toward the ladder with the golden lion in her arms. By this time, Sherrich Chad had disappeared outside the medical room.
"No, there's no key card?" Elaine remembered that the employee elevator needed a key card to open the door.
"You don't need a key card to get out of the management area." Leo said, "After all, the elevator is set up for our convenience. It would be pointless to swipe the card back and forth."
"Okay, okay." Elaine walked into the elevator doubtfully and opened the door without swiping the card. The employee-only elevator is still connected to each floor of the hotel. Although it is not clear where it will come out, at least it can reach it.
Go to the floor you want. The white bear man walks into the elevator holding the golden lion.
"Aren't you busy studying anymore?" Golden Lion suddenly asked in the elevator.
"I have to do something very important next. I thought before I left, I want to meet you."
"Could he be doing something dangerous?" Leoport's sense was quite sharp and he pointed out pointedly.
"Yeah." Elaine was vague.
"That's why you came to say goodbye to me?" the lion boy asked.
"sorry."
"Forget it. I'm not much better than you." Leo said again: "I almost died in today's game. It was so dangerous."
"But you still, will you continue?"
"Well. There is another game tomorrow. I must finish it before I can fulfill my promise." The golden lion buried his head in Elaine's chest and whispered: "As long as tomorrow passes tomorrow, I will be [free]."
"
[Free]? Elaine didn't say anything, but just hugged Leoporter tightly. If this continues, it's unclear whether Leo can survive tomorrow's game. And Leo may only have three months left to live.
, if he works hard again in tomorrow's game, his life expectancy will be shortened. The situation has reached such an emergency, why should he keep a "promise" and use his own life to repay the debt of gratitude?
It was incomprehensible. Elaine wanted to speak out to dissuade the other party, but he knew that he had lost the qualification. When Leo left the Dawn this morning, he should have dissuaded Leo. However, Elaine ignored Leo at that time.
Ask and let him go.
Elaine, who was cold at first, no longer has the qualifications to persuade Leo to do what he wants to do.
There is only one thing left that Elaine can do.
After returning to her hotel room (of course, Elaine and Bediwell shared a suite), Elaine found that the layout of the room had basically not changed.
The hotel room would have had attendants come regularly to clean it. But after all, this is a suite rented by the Knights of Great Britain for a long time to the Round Table Trial candidates, and Elaine's personal belongings stored in the room were rummaged through by an unknown person last time.
Deville has complained to the hotel and asked the hotel to strengthen security. Since then, the hotel staff seems to have never set foot in this room again, and the clothes Elaine hastily placed next to the bed have not even been touched.
"It smells like Elaine. Hehe." Leo stuck out his tongue and said with a smile, "Is this your bed? Put me down."
The white bear blushed and obeyed. He always felt a little embarrassed. On the contrary, the golden lion was not polite at all. He found a comfortable position on the bed and lay down. He half-squinted his eyes and said to Elaine: "I can't sleep. Please."
Do you want to chat with me?"
"No, why don't you take a shower first?"
"Even if you have been in the bath for a long time in the life support cabin, you still need to take a shower?" Leo pouted like a child: "If you take a shower again, you will become bald."
Elaine then sat obediently on the edge of the bed.
"Do you really want to participate in tomorrow's game?" He asked in a low voice: "Can't you not go?"
"I'm sorry. It's been decided." Leoport's eyes showed a little sadness: "If you promise, you must do it. You can't give up halfway."
"Even if you die?" The white bear man's tone was full of fear that could not be brushed away.
"I will come back." The golden lion said: "After fulfilling my promise and paying off the debt, I will be free. Then my body will belong to you, and you can do whatever you want to me. Even if
If you chop off my head, I won’t complain. Until then, just wait patiently, okay?"
Elaine's whole body trembled. He really wanted Leo to see through his plan.
"How, how did you know?"
"You have been reading various books on brain surgery. Even if I can't understand the content of the book, I can still understand it by looking at the cover."
Elaine thought she could keep it a secret, but in fact it had already been revealed in various ways.
"What on earth do you want to do, Elaine." Leo looked at the White Bear again with a bitter look on his face: "The day after tomorrow is the final of the round table trial. Don't you have more important things to prepare for than reading a book?
You participated in the Round Table Trial to realize your dream. At this important juncture, is it really okay to be distracted by a guy like me?"
The originally silent White Bear Man took the initiative to reply at this moment: "Leo, the situation here is more urgent. Because, for Leo, it's worth it. Dad, we can wait over there."
Oops. I said what I shouldn’t have said. Elaine trembled all over.
The lion boy was silent for a while. The air was filled with suffocating silence.
"You are also a fool." A few minutes later, Leo sighed. He did not directly comment on Elaine's choice, but instead complained about something else: "You always act for others. Even participating in the Round Table Trial
Not for yourself. To fight with your life to help others, vomiting blood, dragging your broken body up from the ground again and again - is it really worth it?"
"It's worth it." Rarely, the white bear replied clearly and clearly: "Because I want a place to stay."
So Leoport looked at Elaine with a bitter look on his face, not knowing whether to be sad or happy: "Am I also your place? But you don't remember me, right? Those memories of our childhood a long time ago
, you forgot all."
Elaine couldn't deny it.
"To you, I am just a stranger." Leo sighed: "But Elaine is very gentle. Too gentle. When you see a stranger dying, you will try your best to help. And do you remember me?
There is no necessary relationship, you are essentially this kind of person."
"I just"
"But promise me, don't force yourself anymore." The lion boy shook his head and said: "Doing things you don't want to do for others, reading books you can't understand. Being anxious but having nowhere to escape, you can't bear it.
It’s a despair that should be endured. It makes me sad to see you like this."
Elaine's little thoughts had actually been seen through long ago. Despite this, the other party was still tolerating him. Elaine's eyes gradually became blurred. Without warning, he threw himself into Leoport's arms and buried his face in them.
In that fluffy fur.
"Hey, are you being coquettish?" Leo said dumbfounded.
"Sorry. One, just a moment"
"Why are you still acting like a child?"
Elaine didn't answer, but buried her head deeper. There was a faint sweet smell like oranges on Leo's body. Could it be the smell left by the nutrient solution in the life-sustaining cabin? The white bear man was overwhelmed by the smell.
, the hand began to move down restlessly.
"Are you sure?" Golden Lion asked in a low voice, "Once you do something like that, you can't go back."
"Yes." The white bear replied: "I will save you. If the action tonight is successful, there will be a way to transplant your head to another body. Then you will be able to survive."
."
Although the probability of success of the operation was less than one in a million, Elaine was never able to tell the truth about the fear in her heart.
"Then this broken body will be useless. Before discarding it, use it enough, is this what you mean?" Leo groaned. For Elaine, Leo's broken body is just a kind of
Is it just a prop?
The white bear man shook his head.
"Because this is Leo Ouyuan's original body. I will cherish and miss it. Before saying goodbye to it, let me feel its warmth more." He hugged the golden lion tightly, and the other party did not resist.
So he hugged her even tighter.
I don't know if it was Merlin's strange spell that made Elaine abnormal, or because he was abnormal in the first place; he just followed his intuition and did what he wanted to do. He didn't understand what was right and wrong in the world.
, and don’t want to understand. Now because of the influence of that spell, he is even more willful. Regardless of everything, he just wants to satisfy his own desires.
Leo hesitated for a long time before agreeing: "Okay."
The White Bear Man turned off the table lamp next to the bed. The night fell, and the room was shrouded in darkness. The two shadows merged together, letting out a low and continuous breathing.
