[Attack on Titan] puppet

——To you after 2000

As the only ancient country with dust-covered relics and history of the age of giants 2000 years ago, this place has always been a holy place dreamed of by many best tourists. From childhood to adulthood, there is an endless stream of people passing by him, but they have never There is no pair of eyes that Levi is really looking forward to seeing. In his memory, it is a pair of eyes that are always mixed with forbearance, rarely have the courage to look directly at himself but are firm in their goals.

Not just the vague and bizarre bloody scenes that appeared in dreams, Levi's chance to really remember everything was in college.

He accidentally found an ancient book in a dilapidated bookstore. The original author's name was Randall, because he was a character not recorded in the history books, and some of the contents of this book were so unrealistic that they were biased. Because of the legends and stories made up indiscriminately, the translations that have not been verified by history are rarely circulated, and they even cannot enter the eyes of the library where the original collection is full of fish and dragons.

History is nothing but the activities of people pursuing their own goals. Levi has never been interested in such things. He habitually flipped to the end of the book, and a line of inconspicuous small words came into his eyes: "If If there is an afterlife, I sincerely hope that you can get the happiness that should belong to you."

Randall...Survey Corps...Mary...

According to Han Ji who acted together with Levi at that time, he added fuel to the description later, when Levi, who was usually indifferent to emotion and anger, was flipping through the book, he cried like a little girl. Inevitably, he was beaten by Levi.

After recovering his memory, Levi realized that many people around him were companions who fought bloody battles together in his previous life, but he was the last to realize that most people remembered everything when they were ignorant, and they couldn't hide it when they were young. Many people have valuable experience of staying in a mental hospital for a while, and what Levi couldn't help but sigh is that the mental hospital actually released Han Ji, a real lunatic, to harm the world.

But no matter how I searched through the known contacts afterwards, there was one person missing among those familiar people.

"We'll meet again, Levi."

Levi clearly remembered the last words she said while leaning on his tombstone, and then she committed suicide. All that was left was a pool of dead ashes that were trampled on the soles of their feet, and after all, not even a single tombstone was found.

hate it?How could it be possible not to hate, but this hatred has no meaning in this peaceful age.

Now that he has not shouldered heavy responsibilities, he is no longer prepared to succumb to any gap that can be easily bridged, just like Han Ji said with his brain: "In the end, what kind of regiment commander, soldier commander, and sub-leader? Yes, now we are just passers-by who can be easily buried when thrown in the crowd, and we are not some state dignitaries, high-ranking government officials, what do we care about so much hahaha."

The only thing Levi thinks he can do is to spend his only life with her in an ordinary way. If she is still a newborn baby, then he will choose to grow up with her silently until his own life comes to an end. She is already an elderly person who is about to step into the tombstone, so he will choose to quietly accompany her through the last part of her life.

Compared with the pursuit of wealth and fame, or the supreme passion, Levi's self-proclaimed lifelong wish is really simple and casual.

So the 29-year-old social elite Levi, in the eyes of others, has lived a life of asceticism like a Buddha so far.

"I said Levi, you old virgin!" Han Ji, who had finished the entertainment and said goodbye to the client, simply poured the spirits into his mouth as if it were water, boldly, his face darkened The thorough Levi, with a posture of not getting drunk and not going home, "Tomorrow you'd better wash your ass and wait there early! I want to give you a big gift for you, Mr. Hanji!"

"If you don't shut up, I'll give you a big gift full of hair."

Under the gazes of different expressions around him, Levi's fists tightened, loosened and tightened, and finally he just stretched out his hand to loosen the uncomfortable tie, revealing the looming collarbone, if it wasn't for the group of glib old foxes just now He was so tired that he would definitely drag the nonsense Han Ji to a corner and beat him until he sobered up.

Packing Hanji's unlucky bastard into a taxi, Levi has always been perfect and careful enough, although he was impatient, he still made a phone call, and after explaining to Sanmao and Nanaba, who shared the house with her, he was cool He has always been deeply disdainful of the practice of escaping from reality by drinking to relieve his worries, so he has never been a good drinker. The only bad habit is probably smoking occasionally when he is alone at home and bored.

Developing this habit was probably when he just recovered his memory. The insomnia symptoms that have plagued Levi for a long time have continued since that stage. He was once forced by Ewell to see a famous doctor who is said to be very experienced. As a result, the old man stroked two white beards and said in a mysterious way: "mild depression."

Levi immediately rolled his eyes at him, and replied five words: "You are crazy."

"Levi, sometimes I really don't know whether you did it on purpose or not, and I'm really worried about your lack of common sense." Ai Weier sighed helplessly at Levi with an expression of "you're really shameful" He breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly apologized to the old doctor who had blown his beard and stared.

Levi frowned in a bad mood, and pointed the finger at Aiweier without any regret: "You should worry about your upcoming baldness first, just in case, let's go to the internal medicine department first to see you It’s a hair loss problem.” In the end, Gao Gui coldly said “quack doctor” and then kicked the door and left without looking back.

The arrogance that has been deeply rooted in his bones since his last life makes Levi really stubborn in some aspects. For example, he has always held a disapproving attitude in terms of mental illness. You must know that the previous medical technology It didn't cover this aspect at all, and he was in a normal state even though he often faced bloody killings at that time, so Levi naturally wouldn't accept this kind of diagnosis that he thought was unnecessary at all.

It just so happens that he is the type who gets sleepy after smoking. Although the harm outweighs the benefits, and the dirty nicotine remains in the body is not a pleasant thing, but the nerve-numbing tobacco does help relieve his insomnia. Levi, who is unwilling to take medicine for such a trivial matter, will smoke from time to time even if he is not addicted to cigarettes, but only at home.

Stuffing out the cigarette, Levi forced himself into a deep sleep.

It's not that he doesn't know the reason for his psychological resistance to falling asleep. Now he feels extremely anxious and worried about the passing of every minute and every second. In Levi's view, nothing is enough to be a hindrance, except until death He couldn't see the moment when the harvesting sickle cut his throat, and missed it again for a lifetime.

His heart is too small to accommodate only one person, but the world is too big to find such a person.

But no matter how long the night is, the dawn will finally come.

The next morning, under the continuous bombardment of the doorbell, Levi woke up angrily and rubbed his tingling temples. His half-squinted dead fish eyes contained the power to swallow people alive. He was so angry that he had already vowed in his heart that no matter who he saw when he opened the door later, he would drive him back.

"Hey, do you know how impolite it is to ring someone's doorbell early in the morning on the weekend?" Before seeing who it was, Levi spoke first in a bad tone.

"Hi... sir, uh, I'm very sorry."

As if frightened by that bad attitude, Levi frowned and looked at the girl who was hastily bowing and apologizing to him. Obviously she was not very old, only about 15 years old, and she looked ignorant and ignorant The stupid look is exactly the same as when he first met in his memory, it seems that he was about the same age as he is now.

History is always surprisingly similar, Levi sneered in his heart.

Seeing that she was staring at him hesitantly, her eyes were a little red, and Levi simply said "hmm" to the previous apology, and after saying his name sparingly, he put his hands together Arms folded, she kept silent and waited for her next words. Could this brat want to cry?

"...Mr. Levi and I have met somewhere?" Truth spoke an extremely unproficient foreign language mixed with a native accent, and blurted out without thinking.

Even though she knew that it was almost impossible, because she had seen very few foreign people in her memory, if she had seen such an impressive person before, there was no reason why she would not remember such an impressive person, However, for no reason, he felt very nostalgic for the man he met for the first time and even had a bad temper, and his heart beat irregularly.

"No... why the hell are you crying, you're such a troublesome brat at any time." Levi's mouth curled up in a vague arc, although what he said was complaining, it was mixed with With a little helplessness and tolerance, he raised his hand and roughly rubbed his tear-scratched face with his sleeve and said: "Come in first, wait until your muddy head calms down, then give me a good job." Explain why you suddenly appeared at someone's door."

Levi, who has done a full set of dramas, has probably guessed in his heart that it must be Hanji's little trick again. Is this the so-called big gift?

It's been 2000 years, kid, Levi glanced at the truth sitting on the sofa with great interest, and was vigorously and stubbornly wiping away the tears that kept flowing out of the control of the lacrimal gland. The first time I saw her cry, I have to say it was really funny.

When he realized that she didn't have the memories of the past, Levi felt disappointed and was more grateful. After all, it was not a good memory worthy of praise. Maybe he didn't remember that kind of cruel world. Being an ordinary kid Obtaining a piece of happiness that belongs to ordinary people is also what Levi has always expected of her.

So to coax little ghosts, you should use the method of coaxing little ghosts.

"Here." Levi handed Truth a pack of unopened white sugar after rummaging through the box for a while. Because he was used to living alone and hated sweets, Levi's family didn't have any candy for the kid to eat at all, and even There are no cubes of sugar, only a pack of white granulated sugar that I bought casually when I was shopping for seasonings a long time ago. I have never used it, but I don’t know if it has expired.

"Forget it, don't eat this strange thing."

Guessing to buy some normal snacks when he goes to the supermarket next time, Levi just wanted to reach out and snatch the bag of sugar, but unexpectedly, the truth quickly opened the package, dipped his fingers and put it in his mouth, "噗嗤" A laugh came out: "It's very sweet, Mr. Levi, I've never tasted such sweet candy."

Levi pursed his lips, feeling a slight dry mouth, but the reason of an adult allowed him to maintain his superficial calmness, and he snorted coldly pretending to be disdainful: "It's so dirty, don't be casual in the future." Just dip your fingers in something to eat, and when the time comes, you will eat it yourself and ruin your stomach, so don't expect me to take pity on you."

"Yes, Mr. Levi, not next time." Truth glanced at his fingers and smiled awkwardly at Levi, before he even had time to reveal his identity, and there was nothing in front of him except his name The strange man who knew him strangely did not ask immediately, and the most incredible thing was that he was still very adaptable to this natural way of getting along.

"Although I know you will definitely do it again, but since you said so, then I'll just trust you once, cunning brat." Levi took out a tissue, and his movements were not particularly gentle, but carefully wiped the truth stained with saliva His index finger, and that tear-stained face that made people laugh, with a focused and serious expression, "Okay, I think you can explain the situation now."

Truth nodded, and explained to Levi the basic situation of going overseas alone to study in high school, and the address was taken by her guardian from an old friend named Hanji, she thought it was arranged in advance A host family, but it doesn't look like it now, because Mr. Levi is completely ignorant, and although the apartment is spacious enough, it is so cold that there is no atmosphere that a family should have.

"Mr. Levi, do you live alone? Do you have a wife or children? Or, um... a partner? Please don't mind, I don't discriminate against that kind of relationship." Truth asked as if dying She never imagined that the temporary guardian of the host family would be a man living alone. If her young-looking but bad-natured guardian found out, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"No, I've always lived alone. Why, don't you feel relieved, you kid with persecution paranoia breaking through the sky?" Seeing that the truth just smirked at himself and didn't answer immediately, Levi glared at her and raised his hand vigorously. After rubbing her head, she said as a matter of course: "I'm not so hungry and thirsty to think about a stunted child, but you don't look like a *reading material, deliberately crossing half of the world, leaving friends or What is the purpose of the young boy friend coming here?"

Levi is the kind of creature who can keep his face and heart beating, bury the unspeakable feelings in his heart and strive to live. Although he didn't show it, he still feels concerned about whether this kid with no memory has a boyfriend. Very concerned.

But so what?He couldn't beat that guy up by his collar.

"I don't have a boyfriend, Mr. Levi. As for the reason for coming here... I always feel that there is someone more important waiting for me here, but I can't tell what's going on, but in the end I'm still in a daze Here we come." Truth replied somewhat vaguely, and then joked with self-deprecation: "I think I should have a cup of tea with the psychiatrist when I have time, and they may prepare a dedicated ward for me. .”

Like the intuition of a wild beast, a kind of obsession that has been deeply rooted in her heart since she was sensible drives her to stand on this foreign land that she feels very nostalgic for. It is an incredible feeling, just like The same as when I first met Mr. Levi.

"That's not sure, but you should organize your things before they pick you up for a heart-to-heart talk, unless you want to be driven to sleep on the floor by me tonight." Levi chuckled imperceptibly , stood up and picked up the suitcase on the side, hooked his fingers at the truth that hadn't reacted while sitting on the sofa, and then walked towards the guest room.

"Come right away!" Truth hurriedly followed.

Without excessive pleasantries and superficial efforts similar to the welcome ceremony, Levi accepted her to live with him without warning under the surprise of the truth, but the first thing he did before that was to put The ancient book on the bedside table in his bedroom was dusty in a corner so remote that the kid would never touch it, and then he threw away his lighter and all his cigarette cases.
