Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

The reason is, as Fu Hua said... I don't know what happened, but soon after the captain came to serve in the Far East Branch, his popularity began to spread in the academy.

Maybe it was because he looked too young despite being in a high position... Later, after strange societies like the "Captain's Anecdotal Investigation Department" were established, this matter became more and more outrageous.

One time, while the captain was relaxing in the bath, a curious student hid at the entrance of the bathing area a few meters away and took secret photos.

The captain had no choice but to reach out and pop out a drop of water. Before the other party could take action, the water droplet accurately hit her cell phone camera. The girl and her classmates were surprised and ran out with red faces. .

Of course, this kind of incident is basically a bad incident. If it is reported to Theresa, I am afraid that at best it will be a serious warning. The captain does not want to make a big fuss, so he uses this to remind them not to do some strange things.

However, contrary to expectations, after the rumor that "a drop of water hit the camera from a few meters away" was spread in an exaggerated manner, more students were curious and stood at the entrance of the men's bathing area from time to time to find out.

In desperation, the captain gave up his hobby of bathing here from time to time. Later, Teresa found out about this incident, and Teresa directly criticized and warned some unruly students at the school meeting. , so similar incidents never happened again.

But even so, the captain's popularity in the academy remains high, and strange rumors never stop.

The sound of water running came from behind the captain. In the bathing area on the other side, Fu Hua moved his position after hearing the captain's voice and sat near the base of the bamboo wall.

"I heard about what happened in New Zealand. Were you also having a headache at the time?"

"Well, it's "The Herrscher" and "Anti-Entropy" and so on. To be honest, I was really shocked when Wendy ran away. "

"The "Fourth Herrscher"? I heard from Major Himeko that in the end, even you, who was least likely to go to the battlefield, was forced to take action yourself. You also wiped out more than forty new mechas of "Anti-Entropy". "

"I didn't expect that those mechas operating in groups could avoid Ai-chan's detection. This was my mistake."

"No, you don't have to blame yourself. In that case, no one would notice."

"But, in the end, we still couldn't save Bronya and the others."

"We're going to rescue them right away. They'll be fine."

"..."

Even though Fu Hua comforted them like this, the captain was still a little worried about the safety of Bronya and the others. The specific arrangements for the mission and the collection of intelligence would take some time. Cocolia alone should not be able to deal with Mei Yi and Wen, who are "herrschers". No matter what Di does, Bronya is relatively safer.

"Are you going to tell them?"

"..."

The captain fell into silence. The meaning of Fu Hua's words was naturally asking him if he would tell everyone about his identity and the "Key of God".

Of course he understands, and it's not that he doesn't want to tell them, but he doesn't know what kind of expression they will show after hearing him confess everything.

"Theresa and Himeko didn't ask me."

"Yeah…"

"At least, I will keep your affairs a secret."

"I... no, I was thinking that the principal and others would not take the initiative to ask you."

"Ah."

"Everyone has their own secrets that no one else knows, but now that they have discovered it, one day, you have to tell them."

"They will be surprised..."

"Haha, I can imagine everyone's expressions, but at least now, you don't have to take the initiative to say it, and everyone will not be alienated from you because of it."

"Yes, because everyone... is a very kind person."

"Kind…"

Like a lonely leaf drifting in the long river of time, it still completely retains its original sincerity towards others... Aren't you also a very kind person?

The broken fragments in the memory made Fu Hua think so in her heart. The water dew slipped from her white shoulders, and her delicate face was reflected on the water. Whenever she tried to recall something related to the captain, the first thing she felt was an inexplicable warmth, but then came the inexplicable sadness that came to her heart...

"What on earth did I forget?"

The girl felt that his words would definitely give the answer to this question, but now she did not have the courage to ask.

A drop of water dripped from her face and hit the calm water reflecting her face. In the slight ripples, she could not see the expression on her face clearly even though she was so close. .

After a moment of silence, the sound of water sliding down again came from behind the captain. On the other side of the bamboo wall, Fu Hua stood up, and water continued to drip from her slender jade-like body into the clear bath water.

"I'm going back first, Captain. I'll see you later."

The captain responded briefly, and soon the bathhouse became quiet again.

After taking a bath, the captain returned to Hyperion and took the direct elevator to the bridge. As soon as he opened the door, a strong aroma of instant noodles hit his face.

"?"

The captain took a closer look and saw that the girl in front of him was sitting in his seat, holding a paper bowl and eating instant noodles.

The girl seemed to have noticed something, and turned back with a "swish", but when she saw it was the captain, she turned her head again and continued eating instant noodles.

"Suck~um~"

"Kiana...?"

"Captain, you are here."

The captain stepped forward and leaned against the protective fence next to her. Kiana still had two band-aids on her face, but her face looked very good and she felt that she was not affected by what happened during the day.

Seeing that she was in good spirits, the captain was relieved.

"If you weren't staying in the ward, why did you come to the bridge to eat instant noodles?"

"Hehe~ It's because it's safer here~"

"Safety?"

"Yup!"

The girl raised her head and wiped her mouth, her two long braids swinging back and forth.

"If my aunt knew about it, she would definitely say, "I'm eating unhealthy instant noodles again, let's add some vegetables!" Then she would cut a lot of bitter melon slices and pile them on the instant noodles. "

"…No wonder."

Now the captain can understand. Most of the staff on the Hyperion are off duty now, and the battleship itself has been damaged by the "Herrscher" attack and needs repairs. It is indeed a good choice to hide here and eat instant noodles.

And speaking of it, this mission itself is mainly about "the team infiltrates the ME club" and does not require Hyperion to attack. But Kiana is hiding on the bridge eating instant noodles. Could it be that she wants to...

"Kiana, do you also want to go to "ME Club" together? "

The captain asked smoothly, and Kiana paused and started to giggle.

"Hehehe~ You are indeed a captain."

"You are waiting for me here on purpose..."

"Ahem, that's right! Being able to hide here to eat instant noodles and wait for the captain at the same time is not killing two birds with one stone... double... or something, right?"

"Kill two birds with one stone?"

"Yeah!"

"But your injury..."

"It's okay with me! Just let me go, okay~Captain~"

The girl acted coquettishly, and the captain sighed helplessly. After thinking about it, he agreed to her. After all, even if he didn't let her go, she would definitely follow.

Seeing that the captain agreed, Kiana laughed innocently again.
