Attack on Titan's Silent Watch

Because such hatred cannot be resolved, the Survey Corps must be prepared to deal with revenge from the Sterling family at any time, just like this time.

……

At night, in the training corps, Dai'er, Vanessa, Fitch, and Benson gathered together to study and discuss homework with each other as usual.

Just when Vanessa turned around with her homework book and asked Fitch a question, she suddenly felt a little strange, "By the way, why isn't Casey with us?"

"When you say that, it seems like it's been a long time since I've seen her," Fitch continued.

Del reminded them, "Did you forget? A week ago, she came home on leave."

"So it's like this..." Vanessa and Fitch whispered.

Benson looked at their sudden realization and joked: "It seems that we are all superficial classmates, and I didn't notice that he disappeared for so long."

"Probably because I have used my brain too much recently, and I'm getting old before I get old." Vanessa lay on the table like a piece of soft plasticine, forgetting why she turned around just now.

Two days later, Kathy came back. Although she tried her best to conceal it, she could still vaguely see that she had cried.

"What's wrong with you? Did something happen at home?" Vanessa asked worriedly.

Casey shook her head, "It's nothing." She grinned reluctantly and said, "From now on, I have to study harder."

As a result, the five people who often sat and ate together gradually evolved into five people who ate together and stayed up late to study.

Although everyone can see that Casey has something on her mind, since she doesn't say anything, it's inconvenient for others to ask.But they could all guess that Kathy's mother had been bedridden all year round, and nine out of ten her condition had worsened.

During the winter vacation this year, Casey didn't go home, but stayed in the training regiment like Dai'er, and went out early in the morning without seeing anyone, and didn't come back until very late.

One day, Vanessa couldn't suppress her curiosity and concern for Kathy, so she decided to sneak behind Kathy with Dale to see what she was doing outside in the cold.

Mind (2)

The sunshine time in winter is relatively short, and Casey went out before the sky was fully lit.In fact, Vanessa and Daier had already put on their clothes and hid in the bed. When she went out, she lifted the quilt and put on a coat and a cold-proof cloak, and hid in the small town like thieves.

I saw Casey walked into a store, changed into a store apron, and immediately stood at the door to greet the guests who came to the store.

"It turns out that she came out to work to subsidize the family." Vanessa said sympathetically, "Has it been saved to the point where you have to provide food and housing in the training corps to reduce the burden on the family?"

"If it weren't for the difficult life at home, she might not be like this." Dai'er touched her wallet, Levi would send her some pocket money every month, but she was reluctant to spend it, and now, she was thinking Whether to donate the money to Casey to help her tide over the difficulties.

Daier's thoughts were clear to Vanessa, she said: "I advise you not to think about giving her money, if she is the kind of person who will accept other people's kindness casually, she will not sneak out to work behind our backs. When she needs help, she will naturally ask us for help, so don't worry about it now."

Having got the answer she wanted, Vanessa patted Dai'er on the shoulder and signaled her to leave.

The two were walking side by side on the road. Vanessa casually glanced at the notice board on the side of the road and stopped, "There will be a fireworks show in Trost District tonight."

"Really?" Dai'er stepped forward and took a serious look at the notice, then she turned around and said, "Vanessa, I want to go to the Survey Corps to visit my brother later, and by the way, ask if he is free tonight. Are you going too?"

"I'll just forget it." Vanessa tilted her head and looked away, she didn't really want to see Levi.

"Then I'll go sit there first, and I'll be back before lunch."

"Ah."

Dill thought she had left early, but the soldiers of the Survey Corps got up earlier.After greeting the doorman familiarly, Daier came to the outside of the training ground. The soldiers were running in circles with heavy loads, while Levi rode behind him, urging the guys who were about to fall behind from time to time.

Seeing this situation, Dai'er couldn't help but think of their instructors, why are they riding horses every time, while ordinary soldiers can only run on the ground?Not fair at all.

A gust of north wind came howling, and Daile wrapped her cloak tightly, her teeth chattering.Levi saw Dier from a distance, but he didn't go over immediately, but waited patiently until the training was over before riding to Daier's side, and stretched out his hand to her, "Little devil, come up."

Dai'er hesitated for a while, whether to sit in the front or the back as she did when she was a child.She began to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of sitting in the front and sitting in the back in her mind. It seems that she doesn't need to look up at Levi anymore. If she sits in the front, her head will block Levi's sight.So she chose to sit in the back.

After sitting firmly, Dier hugged Levi's waist tightly to prevent herself from being shaken off.However, Levi didn't ride very fast, he just slipped the horse back to the stable not far away.

Helping Levi brush the horses, feed them, and shovel the horse manure, after a physical labor, Daier felt a thin layer of sweat ooze from the surface of the body, and another gust of cold wind blew, and the body couldn't help shaking again. trembling.

Mind (3)

Following Levi back to the office, Dill felt very warm as soon as she entered the door, so she took off the cloak and hung it on the hanger behind the door.

Levi made a pot of black tea neatly, he first poured a cup for Dill to keep him warm, and then poured himself a cup.

Dai'er held the teacup in her palm, the cold feeling was dispelled, her whole body was heated up, and she melted into the embrace of the sofa softly, "Ah... for the first time in my life, I feel that winter is a bit hot."

"Did you come to see me today?" Levi asked, sitting behind his desk.

"Brother, are you free tonight?"

"What's wrong?" Levi flipped through the documents on the table and started his busy day's work.

Dai'er pouted, looking at the pile of documents on Levi's desk, even if the Survey Corps was on vacation, Levi probably wouldn't be free to accompany her.

"It's nothing, brother should be busy first, anyway, it's not an important matter." Dai'er picked up the quilt and put the black tea into her mouth, and now it doesn't seem to be as bad as she remembered.

"Really..." Since Dier said so, Levi didn't think much, and continued to deal with the matter at hand.

In the office, there are only rustling sounds of flipping paper and writing, other than that there is no noise.Dai'er half-lyed on the sofa enjoying the moment of tranquility, and her thoughts drifted back to Kathy. She was still working to earn money in the cold wind, and she seemed much happier in comparison.She really wanted to help her, but as Vanessa said, Kathy didn't seem to want their help, and she couldn't rush to expose her.

"Ah..." Dai'er didn't realize that she let out a long breath.

Levi looked at Dai'er out of the corner of his eye, the black tea in her hand had been finished, but she was still holding the cup in her palm in a daze, and sighed endlessly in a daze, always feeling that she I feel embarrassed to talk to him about something on my mind.So, Levi had no choice but to speak first, "Brat... why are you sighing for no reason?"

Dai'er came back to her senses, "It's nothing, I just want to be in a daze." She decided not to bother others or think about Casey anymore.Usually, I have been studying with my nerves tense, and it is not bad to lean on the sofa like now and let my brain empty.Time seems to have returned to the era of underground shopping malls, the leisurely and warm days when you don't need to go out to 'work'.

After a while, Dai'er got up, washed and dried the cup and put it back in place. Dai'er breathed out on her hands and rubbed them together, so that the hands that had touched the cold water quickly warmed up.

"Are you still as afraid of the cold as before?" Levi asked.

"afraid."

"Then how did you survive last year?"

"I slept with a classmate in my arms."

Levi raised his eyebrows, "Is that the gray-haired kid who came to be your lobbyist last time?"

"Ah."

"You seem to be on good terms."

"Yeah." Dai'er recalled Vanessa's reckless appearance in her mind before, and she couldn't help covering her mouth and smiling.

Levi looked at the smile on Dill's face, and his heart was a little touched.These days when he wasn't around, Dai'er seemed to be taken care of by that little ghost named Vanessa, and even 'desperated' to help her realize her dream.On the other hand, his elder brother seemed incompetent.

In order to celebrate the arrival of the New Year, there will be a huge fireworks show over the Trout District. Residents in the city and residents living outside the city have poured into the streets of Wengcheng, regardless of their sore necks, looking up to enjoy the colorful fireworks.Del and Vanessa were among them.

It's been a long time since I've seen fireworks, and Dill and Vanessa are like two children who haven't seen the world, they both linger a little after the fireworks show.They could still stand on the street for a long time if the crowd around them hadn't started to disperse and the sudden drop in temperature woke them up.Vanessa's face was full of satisfaction, but Dai'er felt a little regretful.

After the winter, the time came to the spring of 847. Taking advantage of the fact that the weather was not too hot, the survey corps conducted a new round of investigation outside the wall.This extra-wall survey successfully extended the supply route to recapture the Wall of Maria by 10 kilometers.With such a result, Erwin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Even if there are still people who want to advocate the abolition of outside investigations, he can use the investigation report to slap those people more confidently.

After the summary meeting within the Survey Corps was over, Erwin stopped Levi who got up to sort out the documents
