[Attack on Titan] Amnesia Syndrome

Chapter 26 Secret Love

"..."

For Allen's unshakable determination, Armin no longer knew what language to use to express his helplessness.

"I've come here, so I gave up so easily for no reason?" Allen smiled, pulled him out of the green belt, and climbed up the high stone platform, "Captain Miko's nose is really clever. , let's be careful, don't get caught again."

"...I think it's better to go back."

He was cautious enough just now, but he was discovered in a moment.He can even be sure that the team leader now knows whether they have left or not. In this case, unless he stops here and does not move, he only needs to take a step closer...

Armin frowned slightly, looking at Alan's blue pupils with obvious worry.

— will definitely be attacked.

"Wait a little longer." Unaware of what he was thinking, Allen prevaricated vaguely, stretching his neck and adjusting his gaze.Mi Ke has already walked into the ancient forest with cluttered trees, which largely confuses his vision, but with better night vision than ordinary people, he can still keep up with Mi Ke's position.

In fact, Miko did exactly what Almin thought. He not only knew the situation where they were stagnant, but also planned to teach them a lesson if they approached. This place is still a short distance from the dungeon where Rainer and Berthold were imprisoned. The distance, so if they get rid of them here, it will be safe for the time being.

He walked slowly, swaying seemingly inadvertently, but he found the dead point of the angle. It didn't take long for Alan to blink more frequently, which made him feel strenuous.

"Ah... gone!"

He just wanted to relieve the soreness of his eyes and prolong the blinking time, but Mi Ke, who had been in sight all the time, seemed to have evaporated out of thin air, and there was no one in sight when he swept back and forth.

--where it goes?

Not reconciled, he jumped down from the stone platform, splashing countless grass clippings.

"Alan!" Armin was a step behind him, and staggered when he landed, "Forget it."

For this result, he was not surprised at all.

It would be strange if Captain Mi Ke could really let them keep up!

But Alan didn't think so. He was still trying to find Miko from the cluttered old trees. Seeing him running farther and farther, Almin quickly raised his voice, "It will be dawn if we delay any longer. It's terrible to be Captain Levi!"

"..."

"Let's go back."

"..."

hateful!

……

Because of the incident with Dimic, Allen was a little listless when he returned to the atrium. The two walked through the withered garden due to the change of solar terms. The building in front was the temporary resting place provided by the Garrison Corps for the scouts.Armin looked sideways at Alan who was depressed: "Are you still thinking about the captain of Miko?"

"It's just a little reconciled..."

"Well, I can understand, but Alan still needs to cheer up as soon as possible." Armin patted him on the shoulder and said in relief: "The main thing now is to find out what's going on on the other side of the wall. "

"Well... it's been a night, everyone should come back, right?"

Allen sighed softly, but with his slightly lowered eyes, someone appeared from the corner of his vision, "Huh?"

Looking sideways inadvertently, the young soldiers in dark green cloaks were approaching here in a dull atmosphere with weathered and tired faces.

"?" His sudden exclamation caught Armin's attention.

"Everyone is back."

"Ah...really!"

The depressed and regretful state of mind dissipated in an instant when he saw his returning partner. Allen shouted, "Connie, Sasha...everyone, are you okay?!"

"Ah! Allen..."

The tired soldiers of Phase 104 ran over in groups, and soon surrounded Allen who was also running this way, "I should ask you this question."

"Oh? Why?!"

"As soon as I came here, I heard that you encountered a terrifying crowd of giants, and the seniors of Levi's class were all seriously injured..."

"Well, it is said that it is a very strong intelligent giant, and even Captain Levi almost fell behind."

"Are you OK?"

"Ah... I, I'm fine. It's just that I'm exhausted..."

……

They were noisy and concerned about each other, but Armin and Rang outside the encirclement were very deserted.The former smiled and looked at Allen, who was surrounded in the center, answering the concerns of his companions, while the latter put his hands on his chest with a cold face.

"How about it, did you find anything in this operation?" Knowing the discrepancy between Jean and Allen, Armin didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the topic.

Jean squinted at him, his ferocious face really didn't look like a young man, "I didn't find anything, Captain Erwin felt that the wall wasn't damaged at all."

Armin smiled instantly, "What do you mean?"

"The appearance of giants out of thin air, inferred two possibilities." Jean stretched out his hand, "First, giants that can punch holes appeared, and then brought ordinary giants into the wall; second, giants, in a way we don't know, Appeared in the wall out of thin air."

——No matter which possibility it is, the seriousness of the matter has been pushed to the highest point.

"A human who turned into a giant did it again..."

"This kind of thing is obvious, isn't it? Captain Erwin will send someone to investigate the specific reason, but..." Letting him hesitate to speak, his eyes on Almin became complicated in an instant.

"but?"

"...There is something that I am very concerned about." Jean gritted his teeth, and finally let go of the hands that had been encircling him, "So, I must ask clearly."

"Ugh?"

"This is not the place to talk, come with me."

……

"Huh? Where are Jean and Armin going?" Christa, who noticed that they were leaving, blinked slightly.

"Maybe there is something shameful to say." Ymir shrugged and put his arms around her shoulders, "I've been busy all night, should I go back and rest first?"

"Ah, I'm not tired..."

"Well... why didn't you see Reiner and Berthold?" After talking with his partners one by one, Alan found that two familiar people were missing, and his voice changed immediately, "Hey, could it be ..."

"Ah, don't think too much, don't think too much!" Sasha waved her arms, "The two of them are fine..."

"Yeah, and I made a lot of money."

"?" Allen didn't know why.

"It is said that there is some secret mission to be carried out, so it is sent to other places."

"What secret mission?"

"It's not clear, it seems to be a secret."

"yes……"

"Oh, speaking of it, don't just stand here, go back to your room and talk about it, it's freezing cold!"

……

Armin followed Rang and had already circled to the back corner of the dormitory. There was no sound and there was no wind. He didn't know where he was going, so he couldn't help but said, "Rang, do you want to tell me What?"

The thin figure walking in front paused and finally stopped.

At this moment, the sky is getting brighter, the stars have lost their brilliance at night, and the faint white of fish belly swallows the deep black.Jean's voice sounded a bit depressed, "Armin, something... happened to you."

"Ugh?"

"You are not present at this meeting." He turned around, staring at him with piercing pupils, "Because you think more comprehensively and often have good battle plans, Captain Erwin I will call you over during meetings."

—Like the time when the giantess was captured.

"Although it is very irresponsible to judge because of such a trivial matter, I always feel that there is some secret hidden in you." Jean said mockingly, not forgetting to belittle Alan, "The one who grew up with you is eager to die You idiot, you must not have realized it, you've been laughing more and more forcefully lately..."

"Let……"

"Of course, I'm not forcing you to answer. It's just that Armin, even as a companion, can't help share the burden?"

"..." Armin was moved, but the pair of deep pupils staring at him were so determined that he could hardly say words of rejection or perfunctory.

"Marco said before..." He took a deep breath and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "It is true that he said 'Jean is actually a very gentle person'."

He is not a person who is used to throwing out all the thoughts in his heart, because he is too weak, and because he does not want to cause trouble to others, so all along, he will only silently hide those sad and sad, so that no one will find out .

"Is it related to Captain Levi?"

"Ugh?!"

"It seems so."

"!!!"

wait wait wait……

Jean's brows were frowned, "It shouldn't be clear, it seems that Captain Levi doesn't seem to understand everything..."

"that……"

"That is to say, in the crush stage."

"..."

Bombs were thrown one after another, and the most important thing was that the other party's expression remained unchanged and extremely calm. For the first time, Armin felt that his brain was not enough, "Let."

"what?"

"Don't you feel sick..." Why can you say these conjectures so calmly? !

This kind of thing...

This kind of thing is obviously difficult for people to accept...

"Why do you feel sick?"

"Men...and..." Armin's voice was difficult, and he paused every word, "...men or something..."

"Is there a giant disgusting?"

"..."

Although the answer is that he is relieved because he is not considered an outlier, tarnished Captain Levi and discredited him, but this example is too...

"Almin." Jean slightly bent down, put his hands on his shoulders, and said very seriously: "From a rational standpoint, I think it's better for you to give up early."

"..." His heart twitched, and he subconsciously bit his lip.

"That officer is not interested in such things at all, let alone the current situation is so severe." With such a heavy hope on his shoulders, there is no room for other things.

in love?

That kind of luxury that belongs to peacetime will never come to them, a group of people who will die at any time.

……

at the same time.

despair.

blah blah.

The sound of the thick boot soles hitting the floor is very clear, and it only takes a moment to go from far to near.

There was joyous singing and laughing in the tightly concealed door, and when it came to my ears leisurely, my already troubled heart became even more noisy.

bang——

With a loud noise, the door was kicked open roughly, and everyone in the room was startled and looked over.

Levi's face was covered with dark clouds, because of the big move just now, the cloak swelled and flew, and the cold air flow chilled in, and the strong sense of deterrence and conquest swept over the crowd, making everyone move involuntarily, fidgeting.

"Lee, Captain Levi...?"

I don't know who murmured in a low voice, as if infected, the sound of pushing the chair up and down came one after another, "Captain Levi, good morning!"

"..." He didn't say a word, his cold and gloomy sharp eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, but he didn't find the person who made him feel so bad. After holding back for a while, he asked in a cold voice: "Arnold is here?" Where."
