In the middle of the night, the ward finally returned to calm, Ling Xingye got up and went to the window, staring at the peaceful night scene outside.
After a while, he quickly closed the curtains and lay down on the bed.
"It's really lively today..." Ling Xingye sighed sincerely.
It is almost impossible to count how many guests came to visit, and the noisy ones must be particularly conspicuous; when I went to sell drinks at the vending machine downstairs, the head nurse looked at me almost glaringly.
Obviously, the memory before he fainted was still on the battlefield, and he returned to Academy City as soon as he opened his eyes, which made Lingxing Nightclub feel unreal and disillusioned.
"Also, it feels... more tiring than fighting an angel outside for 300 rounds." Ling Xingye complained with a wry smile.
It was the same when he became the "leader". Obviously Ling Xingye himself didn't have that will, but he became this way unconsciously.
Now it's the "promising associate director" again... I feel like I've been pushed into a troublesome position without knowing it again.
"I wish I could wake up and realize it was all a dream..."
But things didn't go as expected, the next morning, Ling Xingye confirmed the news again from Hitomi Shiranui who came to visit.
"The fact that Passy sent you an invitation has spread, and almost all the parties involved know about it." Hitomi Shiranui said, "I am afraid that we have the least information on the parties directly involved..."
"How did it develop to this point?" Ling Xingye looked confused, "I just left for a few days... It can't be because of my outstanding performance in the World War?"
Finally, he said half-jokingly.
"It's because of Xingye's performance in the war."
Unexpectedly, he got a positive answer, and Hitomi Shiranui said seriously: "Directly participated in the battle of the angels, and finally defeated the fire of the right side by himself, ending the whole war...In the eyes of those who know, Xingye, your achievements are simply incomparable .”
Ling Xingye thought about it carefully, and found that it was true—in this World War III with the theme of science and mystery, he had indeed made decisive contributions to Academy City's final victory.
Moreover, with Ling Xingye's current status and position, when the governing council wanted to "reward" rewards, they found that there was almost nothing to seal.
Ling Xingye is already the de facto uncrowned king of the underground world, and one step further, there is only a position in the governing council, right?
"Finally I know why Shokuhou Misaki said that." Ling Xingye was stunned.
With more so-called allies, there will be more enemies, because I am standing on the cusp of the storm!
"Huh?" Hitomi Shiranui raised her attention, "Shokuhou-san came here yesterday?"
"yes."
"Why don't you come with everyone? What is she doing here?" Hitomi Shiranui was obviously very concerned.
"As the 'Queen', come to form an alliance with me." Ling Xingye said, "By the way, act as a commentator and give a live commentary..."
Hitomi Shiranui frowned and muttered: "That guy really does whatever he wants, relying on his ability to run around... Sure enough, I should skip class too."
"There's no need to argue with her about this, right?" Ling Xingye persuaded, "If even you play tricks and skip class, Teacher Xingzi will be very sad when she finds out."
"Is this what I want to argue about?" Hitomi Shiranui glared at him resentfully.
Ling Xingye laughed: "Okay, I know everything."
"What are you talking about... Huh? This is..." Sensing the strangeness in his hands, Hitomi Shiranui looked down, only to find that Ling Xingye had tied a red silk thread to his ring finger. And the other end of the silk thread was wrapped around Ling Xingye's own right wrist.
"For us puppet masters," Ling Xingye said, "Silk threads symbolize 'manipulation' and 'control', and also mean 'absolute connection'."
Ling Xingye raised his head, his eyes were piercing, and he pointed to his head: "Tong, you gave me the opportunity to exist. If I am a puppet, then you are my puppet master—no one can deny that and severed ties."
"This..." Hitomi Shiranui was stunned, staring blankly at the silk thread on her finger, and then looked up at Ling Xingye's eyes.
She was already familiar with and used to his existence, but for some reason, her eyes averted a little at this time: "What is this? Is it Xingye's confession? Ah! Because it was so sudden, I was completely unprepared... No, it was because it was too late. It's unusual, so I didn't realize it and couldn't react! But it's been so long, why suddenly... Ah, I just asked casually just now, and I didn't really care about Shokuhou-san. And it's weird, 'manipulation' , 'control', puppet or something, I am not a puppet master. This silk thread is also very strange, at least a ring is needed in this situation..."
"Uh..." Overwhelmed by the sudden wave of words from the usually quiet Shiranui Hitomi, Ling Xingye also responded subconsciously, "I thought a marriage proposal should be the next step..."
Hitomi Shiranui's words stopped abruptly as if being strangled by the throat. After a while, he said, "I'm not talking about a wedding ring... Engagement... No, engagement? Ah! What the **** am I talking about?!"
Shiranuo's pupils were in disarray, and he turned around to support his forehead and sighed.
"Well, no, I'm going to be late!" Hitomi Shiranui said suddenly, "I'm going to school!"
Said, walked faster to the door
After walking a few steps, I suddenly remembered the silk thread tied to my hand, but when I raised my hand, I found that the red thread had disappeared.
Instead, there was a faint red mark on the root of the finger.
Looking back, I saw Ling Xingye rolled up his sleeves and exposed his wrist, with the same mark on it.
"This is a specialty of the Silver Organization," Ling Xingye explained, "Don't worry, this mark will last forever."
"What, it's so troublesome..." The girl showed a bright smile and hugged her left hand tightly to her chest, "Take a good rest, I'm leaving first, see you after school!"
Forgetting the fact that she was still in the hospital, Hitomi Shiranui ran out briskly.
She completely ignored the head nurse's reminder, and didn't notice the acquaintances who passed by.
"It seems that we came at the wrong time." Kamijou Touma scratched his iconic prickly hair, and stood at the door awkwardly.
"But it's very romantic, isn't it?" The silver-haired nun Index poked her head out, "The one just now should be a confession ceremony circulated among silver puppet masters, right?"
As the "Baiyin" and "Yanshi" organizations went to the world one after another~www..com~The catalog of banned books seems to have expanded a considerable part of the content.
Index came over and presented a bouquet of small white flowers, fresh and delicate, still stained with dew, and it looked like they had just been picked from the flower beds in the park.
Kamijou Touma explained embarrassingly: "I wanted to go to the flower shop, but my wallet disappeared on the way..."
If someone else said this, it would definitely be considered an excuse, but when it was said from Kamijou Touma's mouth, it was quite convincing.
Kamijou Touma continued: "Although Index also has some pocket money, the flower shop in front of the hospital is a black shop, too expensive!"
"Don't worry, don't worry, I appreciate your kindness, thank you very much for your concern!" Ling Xingye said quickly.
Inviting the two of them to come in and sit down, Ling Xingye took out the canned coffee bought from the vending machine downstairs to entertain them.
"It's great to see you all come back safely." Ling Xingye looked at the two of them up and down, and said very relieved.
