infinite loop

Su Li didn't know how to reject people who were kind to her, such as Colonel Heck Hansen, who was sincere and well-spoken at that time.

But since she agreed to this softly imposed errand, Alice often puts some meaningful eyes on her side, and from time to time she clenches her chin to point and comment on the after-school training she took time to set up for Chuck.

She was very strange about it at first, but after a time or two, Alice found a new joy - Max, the bulldog who was airlifted from a distant Australian foster home by Colonel Heck, and no longer just went there Chuck's tutoring goes awry.

Max's appearance at this time is almost exactly the same as the bulldog that vaguely existed in Su Li's memory, even the habit of shaking his head and tail is exactly the same, but the brown fur is still smooth for the time being, not as multi-layered as later Layers of chubby folds.

Max showed extraordinary resistance to Su Li when he met for the first time, but he was particularly close to Alice who also belonged to an unfamiliar category.Every time Su Li couldn't help but want to reach out and scratch her chubby chin, she was immediately stopped by the two shining canine teeth it bared out, and then it lit up at her, and the softness under its little paws Pad, gave a haughty bark, and ran to Alice and bit her boot.

...well, not even his interest in chewing on other people's pant legs and heels.Just like now—in the scalp-numbing creaking sound of canine teeth rubbing hard leather from a corner of the training room, Su Li grasped Chuck's right hand with his right palm, turned around half a circle and leaned back slightly, with his shoulders Sticking to him and bending his arm slightly, forcing his elbow to snap——

She used her left hand to grab his neck, her lower body was firmly planted on the ground, and her upper body threw him over the top of her head and slapped him on the sponge pad in front of her.

In an instant, a dent in the shape of a human was sunk into the soft cushion surface. In the next second, Chuck quickly propped himself up with one hand on the ground, standing upright in front of his eyes, with a dissatisfied expression.

"I said, at least tell me before you start." He touched the red bridge of his nose and complained casually.

"I also said that I would consider it, now you can imitate my shoulder throw just now."

She advanced a little distance to approach him, while still dutifully exhorting, "Also, you have to pay attention to the position of your hands, don't..."

"Don't what?"

He bowed his head and bumped into her not more than half a foot away. He didn't have the patience to think carefully about what she did and how she did it just now, and he bent his painful elbow around the back of her spine and circled her. The side of her waist, the remaining free hand looped from the front to the back to catch her protruding butterfly bone, and her upper limbs leaned back, ready to take the opportunity to throw her back.

"..."

Reflexively, Su Li hooked his calf around his ankle, thus effectively preventing his further attacks, but the result was that the two of them fell to the ground, entangled with each other.

As soon as his shoulders touched the mat, he turned over naturally, his tough jaw sank deep into her thick hair, and he hugged her in his arms.

Su Li leaned her head halfway on the soft cushion, with his strong arms across her waist, and felt the heat seeping from his palms, steaming the wet sweat on her skin through the thin close-fitting fabric, unconsciously Embarrassed, he moved his body and twitched the corners of his mouth, replacing the warning that came to his lips with another sentence, "...don't take advantage of me."

As soon as she finished speaking, the toes that landed on the cold ground outside the mat suddenly tightened, and something sharp was poking at the buckskin boots, making a sticky sound that was almost the same as when Max gnawed on a hard object.

...The slight difference in timbre is probably the difference in the nature of buckskin and cowhide.

Chuck grabbed the bulldog by its collar, picked it up from the ground, threw it back into the hands of Alice who hurried over from the corner stool, and turned his corner of the eye to look at Su Li—the latter was He was busy wiping off the wet saliva stains left by Max with a handkerchief, and the sharp and neat tooth marks on the gray khaki buckskin were clearly visible.

"When I'm not free, you should take care of my dog." He found his facial nerves tensed quietly, and said with a deadpan face.

"Come on,"

Alice also noticed the subtle changes on his face, and with a sneer, she held Max in her arms and rubbed his sparsely furred head carelessly with her fingertips, making him squint comfortably. Rubbing his eyes vigorously, "The reason why I am here to play with your dog is because your dog is obviously more handsome than your own disgusting face."

Being humiliated unceremoniously, Chuck tried his best to suppress his anger and turned to Su Li who was on the protective pad diagonally behind, his brows were wrinkled, and he raised his voice no longer caring, "I don't understand why every time we Take this guy with you when you're together—"

Not to be outdone, Alice put Max down. Seeing the little guy circling around her tremblingly, she folded her arms and sneered, "Oh, isn't that obvious? Of course it's because I'm afraid that you will use the name of private guidance to..."

"Have you forgotten the ten basic principles of friendly relations that I said?"

As the only adult in the room who is physically and mentally mature, Su Li suddenly felt that he was about to become a veritable guardian for the two of them. He raised his fingertips and pressed the swollen eyebrows, trying to make his voice overwhelmed by his words. They argued fiercely, "If anyone wants to do their own laundry, tidy up the room, steal other people's ID cards to buy alcohol, then please continue."

"..."

Alice and Chuck exchanged a fierce tit-for-tat stare, both turned their faces away and said nothing in compromise.

"Actually, you don't need my guidance. Your fighting style can already be regarded as proficient. It's probably because your father has too high demands on you."

Su Li's tone eased. After half a day's strenuous activity, his limbs became so sore and numb that he could hardly move.Stretching her tight fascia, she did not forget to tilt her head and said, "Go back and practice the basic fighting and anti-grapple routines I demonstrated to you today a few more times."

Chuck's lead-blue pupils flickered—in fact, he didn't need any tactical guidance at all. Judging from the indicators of the latest single-player simulator given to him by General Pantecost, he thought he could do well Competent for numerical testing.

As for why he stayed here for the past few days and casually imitated her fighting style...

He was watching her reaction, because she failed to give him a clear answer in the small green garden the day before yesterday.

"Tomorrow I will conduct the first single-person simulator debugging, you must come."

He withdrew his thoughts that had been scattered all over the sky without paying attention, and spoke to her forcefully and decisively.

A small piece of gray haze was lifted by the deep winter wind and dragged straight along the skyline, and the setting sun, which was about to sink, was blown up and thrown into the deep night sky burning with rosy rays and turbid colors.

He saw the thoughtful thoughts sprouting in her eyes, as well as the clear smile on the corner of her mouth.

"There's nothing I have to do." After she finished her first sentence, Chuck turned around as if planning to leave immediately, so she had to continue, "But if I'm free, I will go... …provided that I would not be turned away by General Steck and Colonel Hansen."

Chuck heard the second part of her sentence clearly, but he didn't answer.

With the thumb of one hand on the belt, he blew a light-toned whistle, and tapped the bulldog's buttocks on the ground with his toes, "Let's go, Max."

……

When Chuck led the dog back to the dormitory, it was completely dark. He sat on the tidy bed that had been tidy and tidy, read for a while the independent anatomy textbook of monsters that he borrowed from Catherine Lopez, and started to spread out the notebook Copy the notes and highlights she made in the book.

After he finished all this, the hour hand on the quartz clock had moved to the number "11", and even Max, who was curled up at his feet, began to doze off.

Chuck rubbed his drowsy eyes, closed the book and put it on the head of the bed, hooked his knuckles around the collar of his neck, tore off his jacket and threw it away, and turned off the lights neatly to fall asleep.

The dark night is heavy on the trees, and the cool moonlight stirs the wind and leaks into the window gap, affecting the hair ends hanging between the pillows.

He hadn't slept well and turned over.

The surrounding area was so quiet that only the soft rustling of branches and leaves and snow particles could be heard, and the night was getting deep quickly.

In the quiet and peaceful moment, someone knocked on his door.

"Catherine?"

When he opened the door, his pupils were shrunk slightly by the sudden reflection of the overhead light in the corridor. He saw the face of the visitor clearly at the first glance, restrained the fleeting surprise, and then quickly sorted out the sleepy look immersed in the gradual waking up. , turned slightly sideways and opened his mouth slightly, but in the end he didn't open his mouth to invite her in.

She was still wearing the slim-fit uniform she wore in the evening, with the top two buttons of her shirt unbuttoned for the rare occasion.

What's even more rare is that she didn't pay much attention to his title.

"I'm here to return the dirty laundry you sent yesterday." She picked up the plastic mesh basket placed at the door, put the handle in his hand, and then added, "You're welcome."

Except for her sudden visit in the middle of the night for a trivial matter, and being an uninvited guest, the development of things so far is still normal, but then, an even more unexpected scene happened——

She held him by the collar and spun around, slamming him against the wide open door.

With the difference in height and line of sight angle, he can just extend inward from her collar - but it's nothing compared to the shock and excitement when she hooked his neck and kissed his lips deeply. shock.

He felt a little dazed, and the roots of his ears started to feel hot.
