Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

"I know, I won't do that again."

In contrast, Fu Hua also responded to that expectation seriously, and...

"I'm sorry, Xiaozhi, I apologize to you. I shouldn't have tampered with your memory."

"Well, that's good. So, do you feel better now?"

"Well…"

Fu Hua raised his hand to adjust the frame of his glasses, and took the opportunity to secretly glance at the young man in front of him, who still had a warm smile on his face.

A few strands of confused thoughts made her cheeks feel slightly warm for some reason, so she immediately looked away.

She seemed to realize this, so she immediately adjusted her mood and replied in the same tone as usual, "I believe what you said, Xiaozhi."

"That…"

"But..." Before the captain could speak, she continued, "Although I will no longer deliberately alienate you because of the past incident, I will still retain my own thoughts on these memory fragments. I think What you do is also…”

"Huh? What does Fu Hua want to do?"

The words spoken casually seemed to arouse the boy's curiosity, but the girl had no intention of telling him anything more.

"Anyway, that's enough, right?"

"As long as you stop moping about it."

"Then I'll go back first, little...cough, Captain."

With the change of title, Fu Hua returned to his usual serious and kind demeanor, but the captain was relieved and nodded.

"Well, okay, it just so happens that I should go to the training ground to take a look."

"Also, that..."

"Ok?"

Before leaving, Fu Hua turned his head again and curled up a slight smile, "I had a lot of fun today. Thank you for accompanying me to the game arcade."

"Haha, me too. Let's play together another day. I won't lose to you next time."

"I'm always with you. See you later."

"Well, see you later."

After saying goodbye to each other, Fu Hua turned into a side road and headed towards the Valkyrie dormitory. The captain also turned around and walked towards the training ground.

Looking at the captain's leaving figure, Fu Hua just stood there quietly. Her eyes reflected the young man's unchanged back, but also revealed a stronger determination.

The "Second Herrscher" was a threat that she must ensure to eliminate. It was the same then, and it is the same now.

Whether it’s for the world or for…

One thing that Fu Hua actually felt lucky about was that the boy who was walking away from her sight had not seriously asked her why she wanted to come to St. Freya Academy.

In fact, at the beginning, she did not immediately agree to the request of "Destiny" Bishop Otto to help him monitor "Experimental Subject K423", until that man, Otto... mentioned the name "Zhi".

That was one of the direct reasons why she was willing to agree to this commission. Although she had lost the memory of her old friend at that time, and even because of her deliberate alienation, after the end of the "Second Collapse", the two of them had been together for more than ten years. We haven't seen each other for years.

But even so, she still remembered that that was the person she wanted to protect with all her strength. Even for this reason alone, it was worthy of her agreeing to Otto's request.

But not long ago, after learning the other half of the truth about this commission from Otto, Fu Hua became even more convinced that he had made the right decision in accepting this commission.

"Perhaps in the near future, I will have differences with him again because of this matter, and even...maybe irreconcilable differences. But, it doesn't matter, as long as he and other people can be protected from the threat of "Honkai", Then the price is worth it. "

The girl thought so and took another step. This time, she did not stop.

……

On the other side, the captain who was walking to the training ground suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure when he passed the school commercial street.

"Xiao Misha?"

I saw the silver-haired girl carrying something in her arms, sneaking through the crowd with her head lowered and walking quickly. Judging from the location, she seemed to have just come out of the photo studio.

Although it felt a little strange, the captain still planned to go up and say hello first. Misha didn't seem to notice that the captain was waiting for him in front, and just kept walking forward with his head lowered.

"Little Misha."

The captain called out, but the girl didn't seem to hear him and kept walking with her head lowered.

"Huh? Xiao Misha?"

As if completely cut off from the outside world, Misha didn't hear the captain's voice. The captain wanted to move away, but felt the need to "question and question", so he stood there.

And Misha, who didn't realize anyone was waiting for her in front, just ran straight into the captain's arms. It didn't matter if she didn't hit her. Once she hit, the things wrapped in the girl's arms fell out.

"Ugh...ah, photos! My photos!!"

The girl looked at the photos of a certain boy that had been scattered on the floor in panic. She was completely unaware that she had bumped into someone. She just squatted down and recycled the photos she had just developed from the self-service printer in the photo studio very quickly. Come out with photos.

"..."

Seeing this, the captain knelt down and picked up a photo that had fallen at his feet. He took a closer look and found that it showed him wearing armor, holding the "Key of God", and walking through the sky surrounded by swords. A scene among the "Anti-Entropy" mecha group.

Judging from the angle of view and clarity, it should be an image captured from the "Destiny" surveillance satellite screen.

"This is…"

Except for this one, at a glance, the photos scattered on the ground seem to be all about me... and they come from different sources.

But before the captain could react, the photo in his hand was snatched away by the girl, "Give it back to me!"

The captain was a little surprised. Xiao Misha, who was usually quiet, was like a kitten guarding its food, guarding the photo bag in her arms.

However, when Misha took the photo from the captain's hand, she realized that she had bumped into someone, and what a coincidence that the person she bumped into was the captain himself...
