[Attack on Titan] Amnesia Syndrome

Chapter 23 Complex Emotions

"There is indeed no abnormality in the wall between the Kuroruba area and the Trost area."

It's so weird.

"But... the giant did appear inside the wall." Nair frowned. It was because this news caused an uproar in the wall of Sheena that he was sent to work with the survey corps and the garrison corps to solve the predicament. "Are you sure to see Are you careful? Did you miss anything?"

"Well, we turned back after meeting the soldiers in the Trost area, and we didn't encounter giants along the way." To be honest, except for encountering giants on the day the news that the wall was destroyed was released, it has been very calm.

Those guys... seem to have evaporated out of thin air.

"Since there is no hole in the wall, there is nothing we can do." Neil thought about it, and gave an order, "In short, go back to Troost District and wait for orders."

"Ah..." All the gendarmes present breathed a sigh of relief, and then went down to pack their things filled with joy and rejoicing.

"Great, finally able to retreat!"

"To be honest, I knew there would be no trouble. How could the wall be destroyed so easily!"

……

Everyone left, and Nair didn't stay long. He ordered the reorganization time and went down the wall. For a while, there were only 104 soldiers around.

"What the hell is going on..." Although Sasha has been searching in the field these days, she still feels dizzy and can't figure out the situation at all. Well, the wall was destroyed...it's already happened twice!"

It happened so frequently that the interval between the two times was less than half a year!

Could it be that the attacks of giants will become more and more intensive in the future...

"If you can't find a damaged place, it means that the wall has not been damaged. Then, where did those giants come from?" Jean obviously felt that the matter was not that simple, but Ymir was surprised by the 'adventure' he used. ' The word is very sensitive, "...Hey, you don't mean to say...a giant that can dig a hole appeared?!"

"That's not good." Unexpectedly, Jean didn't refute, but just pondered on this line of thought. "In this way, it will become quite difficult to confirm the location."

"How could it be..." Christa looked worried, and her white fingers slightly touched her pink lips, "Then what should I do next? Do you really leave this place and withdraw to the Trost District?"

"Ah—" Ymir hugged her tightly and rolled his eyes with a smile, "My Christa is really an angel, marry me!"

"Ymir, you are making such a joke again."

"It's no joke, I'm serious!"

They are making a lot of noise here, but it makes Connie who has been quiet all the time very conspicuous. Sasha noticed his abnormality and couldn't help asking, "Connie, what's wrong?"

"There's something...that's strange." He frowned tightly, as if he was thinking about something, "My village...well, did everyone really go to evacuate?"

"We didn't find the body of the deceased, nor did we find any traces of blood. If everyone was really eaten by giants, there would be no trace left... That's how we judged that day."

"But... there is one thing that has always concerned me." He stared at his hand irritably, "There is a lying giant in my house, the guy who can't move by himself, do you remember?"

Sasha nodded, "Yes."

"I don't know why, but I think that guy... is somewhat similar to my mother."

"what?"

This time, it wasn't just Sasha who found it unbelievable, even the other companions who were attracted by their conversation glared at Connie with a look of monsters on their faces.

"Ahahahahahahahahahahahaha——!" Ymir burst out laughing instantly.

"So... your mother is a giant, Connie? But why are you a dwarf? Isn't that illogical!"

"Hey...you bastard..."

"Did you hear, Christa? Did you hear what Connie just said? Huh? I knew he was an idiot, but to say something like this... Is he a genius? Hahahaha..."

"Ymir." Christa tugged at her sleeves and whispered, "Don't be like this..."

"Ah, that's enough, it's too noisy." Connie's head started to ache from her laughter, and he said while holding his forehead, "This conversation is really getting more and more silly."

"That is to say, if that statement is true, is your father also a giant?"

"But that's not right. Don't giants have reproductive organs? How can they conceive you?"

"It's noisy, damn woman!"

"Connie." Jean patted him on the shoulder, "Are you too tired these days?"

"No! I..." It's not a question of being tired at all.

That doubt was buried in his heart, and he couldn't find the right solution. Many times he wanted to leave everything behind and go back. That guy can talk. Isn't it strange that a giant can talk? It has never happened for so many years. This precedent, but...

But could this strange thing be just his illusion?

After all, no matter whether the mother becomes a giant or a giant who can talk, it is completely non-existent...

Ah, really, is it true that as Jean said, he was too tired without a good rest?

He was dejected, "I'm sorry for making everyone worry."

Jean patted him on the shoulder, "Go back and take a good rest."

"Um……"

……

It took some time to clean up, and it was almost late at night when everyone rushed back from Kuroruba District to Troost District. Levi was awakened by knocking on the door just as he fell asleep. As soon as the door opened, the straight-backed little soldier beat his chest , "Captain Levi, good evening!"

"What's wrong."

"The soldiers who were investigating the destruction of the wall have all returned. The regiment leader invites you to go there."

"understood."

When he returned to the room, Armin was sitting up with the quilt in his arms. Seeing him walking to the clothes hanger and putting on his uniform without saying a word, he understood a little, "Captain, are you all back?"

"Yeah." He shook his cloak, and said in a neutral tone, "You continue to sleep."

"Well... why don't I go back to my room."

To be honest, he has been staying here for the past few days and he really feels quite awkward. If it is just because of surveillance, he has never seen the commander treat Alan so...close...to the same...bed...

Well, not right.

Now Alan can roughly control the giantization, so Alan who had just entered the Corps at that time... also lived and ate with the captain in this way, so close?

"No." He refused without thinking, Levi buttoned the cloak, and said coldly, "Go to sleep, this is an order."

"..."

He also ordered him directly because of the other party's disobedience, with such a cold and impatient look?

Levi left, and in the quiet room, only Armin, who was thinking about something at a loss, was left. If he thought about it this way, before him, did the captain have sex or relationships with others?Using that kind of brutal but gentle plunder, tightly encircling the other party's domineering...

Ahh, that's terrible.

Now is obviously not the time to think about such things!

knock --

There was a knock on the door of the room, and Armin recovered from his chaotic thoughts, just about to get out of bed to open the door, but suddenly stopped.

The people outside must have come to look for Captain Levi, so it would be a little bad for him to run over rashly...

After all, it's late at night, and he looks like this again. If it is rumored that he spent the night in the captain's room, it will bring trouble to the captain...

Still...don't open the door.

Armin retreated back to the bed, but the knock on the door outside was insistent, continuous as if he knew someone was in the room, so persistent that people began to feel upset when they heard the monotonous mechanical 'knock' sound.

Armin blocked his ears and got under the covers.

After an unknown amount of time, the knocking on the door finally stopped, and Armin was also a little dazed. He vaguely felt that he heard something, and then there was the sound of someone approaching, the quilt was lifted, and the familiar male voice panted lightly. , Surprised: "Ah, is Armin asleep?"

"Hmm..." He blinked, with a sliver of light in his eyes, and he stared blankly at the blurry face that was close at hand.

"I'm sorry, I woke you up." Allen sat on the edge of the bed. He came in through the window, and the grass clippings and dirt on the soles of his shoes also stained the shiny floor. I was inside but didn’t open the door, so I’ve already rested.”

"Ai... Lun?" His brain, which had become dull due to deep sleepiness, began to wake up a little bit. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, but the handsome young man smiling in front of him still existed...

If it's not a dream...

He sat up abruptly, "Alan?!"

"Well, it's me."

"You, how did you get in?"

"Flip through the window."

"..." Armin's eyes fell on the direction he came from. The original glamorous floor was covered with grass clippings and dirt, but the instigator of this incident didn't care. He murmured, "This It's Captain Levi's room, you've stained the floor."

"Ah! Really..."

Allen panicked and couldn't care about anything else for a while. He took off his boots and ran into the bathroom barefoot. After a while, he washed the rag and came out, knelt on the ground and started cleaning.This back and forth noise also made Armin sober, he lifted the quilt, "Let me help you."

"Ah, no need. Captain Levi's definition of cleanliness is too high. If you don't receive 'professional training', you can't satisfy him."

——This is the principle that he gradually understands in the torture of blood and tears every day.

"..." The relationship between Captain Levi and Allen...is not as bad as imagined.

No wonder the captain was so angry during the day, he was just wasting the captain's time talking nonsense...

"I heard that everyone is back," Alan wiped the floor vigorously, not knowing what was going on in his heart. "I thought the captain would definitely go to the regimental commander, so I sneaked over here."

"..." And, just like Captain Levi understands Alan's unwillingness to be submissive, Alan also understands the commander's mind.

"I really want to know what's going on with the wall. I've been locked in the room without any news. I'm almost dying of anxiety."

"Ellen..."

"Huh? Did Armin mean to say that he was the same as me?"

"...I have a question for you."

"Ah, why are you so polite all of a sudden? Just ask."

"You..." He bit his lip, forcing himself to suppress the complexity and anxiety in his heart, "Has the relationship with Captain Levi always been this good?"
