I like traveling the most

——What on earth is going on? !

Xiaolin covered his head and tried to recall.

I remember that last night, he prepared hot tea in the room and set up a silent barrier to wait for Tatsumi to come to him.

"You are here."

"I am here."

"You shouldn't come."

"I am here!"

That's right, for this classic line, he deliberately used words to guide Tatsumi to cooperate with him.

After that...

The hot-blooded Tatsumi asked loudly: "Xiaolin, why did you defect? ​​Answer me?!"

Are you a ninja who is desperately trying to find his companions?

Xiaolin wanted to complain, but he still said something he repeated several times, "I didn't join the night raid. It was all your wishful thinking from beginning to end."

"What a joke..."

Tatsumi clenched his fists and gritted his teeth in anger.

Kobayashi smiled and said, "Remember what I told you? Being a killer can't save the imperial capital, and the people who control the night raid are not good people."

"But you said everyone is a good person."

"That's why I didn't expose their information, right?"

"..."

Although he was very upset, he couldn't find any reason to refute.

After all, the imperial capital did not post a wanted order for him, Leone, and Lubbock.

Kobayashi poured him a cup of tea and said, "To answer your question just now, why did you join the hunters... My answer is for my ambition."

"Ambition?"

"Yes, like you and your purpose, I also want to overthrow the corrupt rule of the empire. It's just that the way we choose and the position we represent are different, that's all."

Kobayashi's words made Tatsumi fall into thinking.

Method and position.

This is the truth Kobayashi taught him during the night raid. He is not on the side of the night raid or the hunters, he stands on the side of the people.

- In this way, you will be hated by both sides.

You will bear a bad name and never be able to turn over, but compared with what you want to save, it is not worth mentioning at all!

"Could it be...?!"

"Yes, just as you think."

Kobayashi's smile was very plain and gentle, but the more it was like this, the more shocked Tatsumi was.

He actually thought about changing something from the inside.

"So, I am not your enemy, but your companion... at least, a fellow traveler with the same ambition and the same path."

"Do you mean having the same goal?"

The doubts in his heart were answered, and Tatsumi finally let go of his grudges, but at the same time he had more feelings.

"... Is it worth doing this?"

"Tatsumi, let me tell you one more thing."

Kobayashi's expression became serious, and he said firmly: "No matter how hard the road ahead is, as long as you go in the right direction, no matter how bumpy it is, it is closer to happiness than standing still."

If Brand is a moral mentor, then Kobayashi is a life mentor. On the road of life, he has given him a lot of help and has always influenced him.

Tatsumi left, and he was in deep thought while leaving, and he looked like he had a deep understanding.

Kobayashi raised his cup and took a sip of hot tea, with a satisfied smile on his lips.

He was not lying.

He did join the hunters for ambition and to overthrow the empire, and they were indeed like-minded fellow travelers.

The only difference was that he did not say that there was a third major force behind him as a backing.

Tatsumi, you must convey the information to the people in the night raid, I am looking forward to you.

With this thought, he fell asleep contentedly.

...What happened after that?

"Why is Esdeath in my bed?!"

"Master Kobayashi, let me correct you, you are not in your own bed, but in someone else's bed."

Ryuko's words made Kobayashi shudder.

The resentment is too deep!

"Ms. Liu Zi, I wonder if you can explain to me why I slept with General Esdeath?"

"Then let me explain it."

Perhaps the noise was too loud, waking up Esdeath from her sleep. She stretched out her beautiful curves and exposed a large area of ​​skin.

The corners of Kobayashi's mouth moved slightly.

This General Esdeath is too bold. Like the carefree Leone, doesn't she mind having her body seen by other men?

"Captain, can you explain it to me?"

"Because you are so tempting, Kobayashi."

"...Hmm???"

"Because you are so tempting, Kobayashi."

Thinking that he didn't hear clearly, Esdeath repeated it again.

But what kind of explanation is this?

"Sorry, I don't understand."

"In general, Kobayashi exudes a very tempting aura, and I couldn't help but attack you."

Tempting aura?

It must be something extraordinary to attract Esdeath.

Ice? Water? Divine power?

Hiss——

Wait, he seemed to understand something.

He took a breath, and the face of a stupid goddess subconsciously appeared in his mind.

It's you! ! ! ! ! !

This situation is not what he expected at all, why do you always cause trouble for yourself in inexplicable places!

MD, Aqua!

"Then why are you on the captain's bed?"

"Because the bed in my room is quite big."

Are you Brother Jie!

In fact, except for Esdeath's luxurious room, the other members all have single beds, which can't accommodate two people.

"Miss Ryuko, why didn't you stop it?"

"Master Kobayashi said that no matter who comes in, don't stop them. Have you forgotten?"

That was said for the reception of Tatsumi, okay!

Kobayashi really wanted to tell Ryuko now, but at this time, he couldn't let Esdeath know that he had communicated with Tatsumi last night, so he could only force himself to swallow this loss.

"By the way, Kobayashi, do you know why?"

Esdeath seemed very curious.

"When we first met, I was inexplicably close to you. Obviously, ordinary people who talked to me or bumped into me would be taken to the torture room and tortured."

"Probably because of this."

Kobayashi raised the blue crystal necklace on his chest.

It exuded a strong breath of water, which made Esdeath understand why she was so abnormal before, and she always felt that the necklace could bring her great benefits.

"Okay! Xiaolin, give it to me."

"Hmm?"

"In exchange, you can choose whatever I have, and it doesn't matter if you take it all."

Esdeath always distributes money to civilians and subordinates, but the spoils she has collected from years of fighting are still very substantial. In her opinion, it should be enough to exchange for the necklace.

Xiaolin was also in a dilemma.

What should I do? Should I give it to her?

If I give her the necklace, it should increase her favorability. Then, if I do something secretly, it will be tolerated by the other party...

He handed the necklace over tremblingly, but the next second, he took it back at a very fast speed.

"Sorry, I still can't exchange it."

This necklace has helped him many times, so it can't be exchanged.

Well, it's definitely not because of Aqua!

Absolutely not!

"Really? That's a pity."

When Esdeath saw Kobayashi's extremely gentle smile, she felt a strange throbbing in her heart and couldn't help asking, "It seems that this is a gift from someone important."

Kobayashi smiled and replied, "It was a gift from a hopeless idiot, so I cherish it very much."

"Really?"

For some reason, that gentle smile made Esdeath a little irritated.

Let's put the necklace aside for now.

Kobayashi said seriously, "Captain, you must never sleep in the same bed with strange boys in the future!"

"Why? Eating and living together is also a way for superiors and subordinates to get close to each other, right?" Esdeath, who has a military personality, doesn't care at all.

"No, no, no matter how you think about it, it's not. And if Tatsumi knows, he will be angry."

"Is that so?"

Esdeath cares about Tatsumi's thoughts.

What Kobayashi never expected was that she actually asked Tatsumi about this in person in order to confirm it.

"It's totally fine, I don't mind at all!"

Tatsumi raised his thumb and showed an extremely sunny and pure smile, but in Xiaolin's eyes, that smile was full of gloating.

You don't mind, what the hell!

I am a pure love war god, I will never be a yellow-haired man!
