Kneeling and begging to live past the age of 18

Consciousness gradually recovered, and the whole person woke up from the darkness. What Miki Nozomi felt was that he was being held in someone's arms.

The hug was not the smell of lemon-flavored detergent from Miki's mother, but a little inconspicuous smell of smoke, which was extremely strange.

Miki Xi quietly opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was a young man who looked like 26, leading him into a warehouse.

"you're awake?"

His stern expression softened slightly after catching Miki Nozomi's gaze, and became serious again in the next second.

"It's running out of time, so listen to me first."

Putting the child in his arms to the place, the man squatted down and asked eagerly.

"I'm your father, because I have something urgent to do now, so I can only put you here first."

Although he is not at home, Kiyoshi Miki can often know all the growth paths of his daughter from his wife's letters, so he also knows that his daughter's maturity is different from ordinary people.

He used to feel guilty for this, but now he can only regard this as a life-saving straw.

"I promise to be back soon, so..."

"I see."

The body of the anxious man in front of her can't be faked, and it's not like she hasn't seen him before, Miki Nozomi stood still and comforted him.

"I will wait here obediently, so go if you have anything to do."

She raised her head, looked into the man's eyes, and repeatedly made assurances to make him feel at ease.

"Don't worry, I will always wait here."

The unknown warehouse was closed from the outside, and even the broken chains were rewound to disguise it as if it hadn't moved at all.

The warehouse is cold and damp, and the only light sources are falling from the cracks in the door and the skylight at the top. If there were ordinary children in it, they would have been scared and shivered in the corner.

However, at this moment, Miki Nozomi was just sitting in a small cleared space, staring blankly at the light at the door, and began to analyze this incident in his heart.

First of all, it is me who always moves. Although I have never been in contact with him, it is impossible that there are no clues at home. Even my mother will mention my father as if to deepen her impression.

And she also vaguely guessed that her father was probably working in the army. There have been wars in recent years, so it is reasonable to be busy.

Mother never said that she had any enemies, most likely it was on father's side... So it was because it was better to hide in the past?

Thinking of this, Miki Nozomi fell into deep thought.

The mother who suddenly took her away, even had to make herself dizzy and the father who came and left in a hurry, and even had to put her child in the warehouse...

Just when she was worried, suddenly, a butterfly flew in from the gap in the skylight.

It flapped its wings, with an inconspicuous gleam, as if it had a definite target, and flew in front of Miki Nozomi without hesitation.

"This is……"

Miki Nozomi opened her eyes wide, looking in surprise at what could be seen at a glance in front of her, like a butterfly made out of paper, and stretched out her hand suspiciously and cautiously.

The butterfly fluttered around her, and the moment it landed in her hand, it turned into a complete letter with the words [Miki Nozomi] written on it.

Miki Nozomi frowned involuntarily, she opened the letter without hesitation, but the contents inside made her suddenly silent.

Except for the very unJapanese-style "Dear" title in the first sentence on the top, you can tell who wrote it just by looking at the others.

The "letter" from Miki's mother not only explained the cause and process of everything, but even stated bluntly, "When you receive the letter, I should have died." Such words.

At the end of the letter, she explained her ability in detail, and bluntly said that this ability has been inherited to herself, and the time is... when this letter arrives.

[Unnamed Love Letter]: You can't attach your own name, but as long as you know the real name of the recipient, you can send a "love letter" that only the sender and recipient can see, and you can even set the time when the other party receives it.

It turns out that what mother said to communicate with father...is this the one used?

The whole letter turned into light spots and dissipated the moment Miki Nozomi finished reading it. She stared blankly at the empty palm, but didn't know what expression she was going to make at this moment.

Are you sad?Yes, she is sad, but to cry?

She raised her hand to touch her eye sockets, only to find that there was only sour moisture.

She cannot cry.

She can smile, be sad, and even be angry and sad, but she can't shed tears.

As early as in countless reincarnations, she seemed to have lost the ability to cry, leaving only the positive ones exposed.

"Goodbye, mother of this life."

Miki Nozomi lowered her eyes, staring blankly at the ground, her sigh was barely audible.

"In your next life, don't work so hard."

You've already gotten used to it, haven't you?parting.

This waited from morning to dusk, Nozomi huddled in a corner alone, feeling a little cold.

Even in summer, in this kind of dark and humid warehouse without much light, the temperature is not something that a child wearing only a dress can stay in for a long time.

Today...will you spend the night here?

Appearing with the inherited ability, with shimmering pen and paper illuminating the side, Miki Nozomi hugged his knees and sighed, thinking of his father who ran out in a hurry.

It's been so long, is the crisis still there?Won't……

Before she could think about it further, hurried footsteps came from outside the warehouse. Miki Nozomi straightened her expression and looked towards the door instantly.

The rattling sound of the chain being pulled out was extremely eye-catching in this silent place. She nimbly hid in the box in the warehouse, and carefully looked at the door again with her probe.

After a while, a familiar and unfamiliar human nature appeared at the door, and the other party's voice was also heard tiredly.

"Ah... Xi?"

Shouting this supposedly familiar name a little strangely, Miki Kiyoshi scanned the warehouse nervously, and finally relaxed when he saw his daughter coming out from behind the box.

"Ashi..."

He cautiously approached his daughter's small figure, but became at a loss the moment he came to her side.

"I……"

It should be the touching father and daughter who recognized each other, but Kiyoshi Miki could only squat down, and he became cautious even when he wanted to hug his daughter, not daring to stretch out his hand.

What should we do?This happened.

How can I tell my 5-year-old daughter, her mother...

Miki Kiyoshi fell into hesitation, but Miki Nozomi didn't. She stared at the man in front of her with a wilting and decadent hair, and took the initiative to break the deadlock.

"Father."

Her brown eyes were as clear as ever, and she just stared at the other party, as if nothing happened before, as if she didn't notice the smell of gunpowder around the other party at all, as if she didn't notice the stain on the other party's clothes at all. Without obvious blood stains, he stretched out his hand and hugged the other party.

She whispered again in the man's ear.

"Father."

Subconsciously embraced the soft existence in his arms, the original dejected appearance gradually became firm, and Kiyoshi Miki finally came back to his senses.

The feeling of being connected by blood is always strange, and the man's gloomy eyes gradually recovered a little gleam.

Yes, I still have a daughter, she is still so young, she can't survive alone, and I can't be negative yet.

The man who reacted took a deep breath, saying the name just once felt like he had said it thousands of times, and he had indeed said the name countless times in his heart.

"Ash, I'm here to pick you up."

He hugged Miki Nozomi, and clumsily uttered a lie.

"From today onwards, you will live with your father, your mother...she has gone to a far away place."

Even though he could kill the enemy without changing his face on the battlefield, at this moment Kiyoshi Miki found that he dared not look into his daughter's clear eyes.

"Because that place is far away, I can't take you there, so Yoko entrusted you to me."

"Is that so..."

The child's soft voice rang in his ears, and the answer he gave was as he understood.

"I understand."

Miki Kiyoshi turned his head to look at his daughter, but he could only see calmness and tenderness in the eyes of the other party and his wife.

It seems that he has seen through his lies at the moment.

"There is a sentence that I want to say to my father. I originally wanted my father to say it when he got home, but it should not be too late now."

Because he really loves his mother and her.

Hugging the man's neck, Miki Nozomi spoke softly.

— along with the mother's share.

"Father, you have worked hard."

Miki Kiyoshi finally couldn't bear the grief in his heart, he hugged the child in his arms tightly, tears streaming down his face.

After being picked up by Kiyoshi Miki, the rest of the things had nothing to do with Nozomi Miki, except that she would leave to do some things at the beginning, she was taken care of clumsily by the man, and was even taken away to a new place again .

She had heard Kiyoshi Miki communicate with other people, and even saw the other party anxiously crossing out one name after another on the paper.

Just when she thought she would be sent away, she was told to enter a certain place with the other party.

"I'm sorry Ash."

Miki Kiyoshi was very guilty, and after he found out that he didn't even have enough trustworthy people to entrust his daughter to, he became even more desperate.

If he didn't do anything, it might even happen that those enemies would find his daughter as soon as he left.

Now, as the time for his new appointment is getting closer, he can only make one decision in the end.

Take your daughter with you.

Ordinary people can't join the army, but he knows that his wife's ability has been inherited to his daughter by correspondence with his wife.

The ability of [Untitled Love Letter] is very powerful in espionage, missions, and even communication, and it is even suitable for where he is about to go.

——Ever Dark Isle.

The islands that suddenly appeared in the Pacific Ocean, where there is only night, and even the electromagnetic waves of the aurora linger, making electronic machines unusable, but it is now the main battlefield of the Great War.

If it is just as a communicator with the outside world, it is enough to only be in the aircraft carrier base. Only in this way can you keep your daughter by your side, and only in this way can you prevent your enemies from killing your daughter.

and so……

Miki Kiyoshi's expression was determined.

"Leave with me, I won't let anything happen to you."

The author has something to say:

I guessed wrong, Sen didn't come out... But I'm going to Changan Island, and Sen's rounding is almost the same. I met, after all, Sen is a military doctor there now (cough)
