[Comprehensive] Light and Shadow

Allen walked down the stone steps step by step, looked at the weeds growing in the stone wall, and sighed.

In the military court, it was identified as a human threat by the head of the gendarmerie and the bishop, but in the end the punishment of the death penalty was changed to wait for observation under the guarantee of the head of the investigation corps, Erwin, and the captain Levi. He joined the Survey Corps.

Living in the headquarters with the special operations squad, I am afraid that I will be killed by these elites if I have even the slightest sign of going berserk.

But what I didn't expect was that the captain paid so much attention to the hygiene of the headquarters.

"The floors above have been cleaned."

Allen walked to an open wooden door and tore off the white cloth covering his mouth and nose, but his voice dropped after speaking halfway.

Levi stood at the window, his body wrapped in uniform exuded a killing and explosive power, his black hair swayed slightly in the breeze, and the refinement and indifference in his narrow eyes swept a sense of oppression, which made people feel An unbearable feeling.

It's just that this wasn't what Alan was surprised by. What Alan saw was a person lying on the bed in this room, and this person was Leo whom he saw in the dungeon a few days ago.

The purple-haired man was lying leisurely on the bed with his eyes closed, his purple hair lying softly on the white sheets. Even though he was still wearing the uniform of the Survey Corps, he had a more peaceful and reassuring atmosphere.

The man seemed to be asleep, with his chest heaving slightly, his head resting on his right arm, while his body was curled up. In this posture, he could see the soldier standing beside the bed when he opened his eyes.

What to say?

When everyone was cleaning, when the captain had a bad temper for being messy, and when he was taken to the headquarters as a human threat, this man could still sleep peacefully in the same room as the captain.

——It really is powerful.

Allen looked at Leo who was asleep, but suddenly felt that the room had suddenly cooled down, probably because of the evening wind. Allen glanced from Leo to the window. Although Levi didn't speak, the man's eyes The sharpness and lingeringness in it seemed to pour into the depths of the brain, creating the illusion of pain.

I don't know why, but I always feel that the commander is sullen.

"Excuse me, where should I sleep in this facility?" Allen looked at Levi a little helplessly.

"Your room is in the basement." Levi tore off the white cloth covering him.

"Is it the basement again?" Allen looked at Levi blankly. In fact, he didn't want to continue sleeping in the basement. It felt like being imprisoned, but in fact, his current situation seemed to be so.

"Of course. You can't completely control yourself yet. If you fall asleep and become a giant, we can control you on the spot in the basement. This is one of the conditions they put forward when we took over you, and it is a condition that needs to be complied with." A rule." Levi said lightly, and then walked towards the bed.

"I'm going to check the room above, Alan, you clean here."

Allen nodded and looked at Levi who was walking towards Leo, thinking that the captain wanted to wake up the man.

The fact is the same, but it is somewhat different from what Alan thought.

"Ahh! It hurts! It hurts! It hurts! Head, head is about to be pulled off!"

Levi stood by the bed, squinting his eyes slightly, reached out and grabbed the sleeping man's hair without hesitation, and then lifted it up, the purple-haired man screamed in pain in an instant, just listening to it like this I think there is definitely an exaggeration in it, but at least Allen seems to think that the way of being woken up by holding his hair is really painful.

Leo's hand grabbed Levi's wrist, as if wanting to let Levi let go of his hair, but the scalp was still sorely pulled, Leo could only scream and tremblingly move to the side of the bed immediately Get out of bed.

As expected of the captain, even the way to wake up the team members is so sharp and shocking.

Allen swallowed, and couldn't help feeling a surge of sympathy for Leo in his heart.

When he finally got out of bed and Levi finally let go of his hair, Leo rolled on the ground with his head in his arms.

The expression seemed to be suffering from some extreme torment, and his mouth was still howling in pain. Looking at Leo who was rolling all over the floor, Levi frowned slightly and kicked the man on the ground to the wall.

"Huh? Allen?" Leo clutched his chest in pain, opened his eyes and looked around, but his eyes were a little red, and when his gaze was unintentionally fixed on Allen, Leo's eyes stared in surprise.

"Give me some face in front of the younger generation!" Leo looked at Levi who was beside him angrily, then immediately got up from the ground, stroked his messy hair, and patted his clothes , and then the corners of his mouth raised a perfect arc, intentionally putting on a mysterious look.

Don't pretend, I've seen it all.

Allen looked at it weakly. As expected of a special operations squad, there are a lot of special weirdos.

"Since we all know each other, I won't introduce myself again." Leo walked over with a light smile and patted Allen on the shoulder, "Congratulations on joining the survey corps with the highest death rate. Seeing your thin appearance I don’t know how long I can live, how are you feeling?”

Allen twitched the corner of his mouth, what kind of question is this?It doesn't matter whether you're in a good mood or a bad mood.

"Oh, the younger generation is becoming more and more impolite now, and they don't even want to answer the senior's questions properly." Leo frowned slightly, with a bit of exclamation in his tone, and then looked at Li next to him. Will.

"You go take a shower." Levi looked at Leo, who was covered in dust, with disgust, and just dropped four words and turned his head to leave the room.

"Levi, I haven't woken up yet." Leo yawned lazily, stretched his waist and followed Levi's pace out.

Looking at Levi and Leo who left, Allen was a little surprised.

"Are you surprised?" After a while, a brown-haired woman suddenly appeared at the door.

"What?" Allen was startled by Tepela's sudden appearance.

"Captain Levi and Leo seem to have a good relationship, don't they?" Tepera said with a smile, his eyes still following the back of Levi and Leo leaving.

"Well." Allen nodded, obviously just seeing the two people together, he felt that there was a relaxed and tacit atmosphere between the captain and Leo.

"It is said that before joining the Survey Corps, Captain Levi and Leo were gangsters in the underground street of the capital, so their relationship is naturally better." Tepera's approachable feeling made people feel close.

"How could it be?" Allen stared in surprise, never thinking that the strongest human commander would ever be a gangster.

"I don't know about this. It's just Alan, the captain has a serious cleanliness, so remember not to mess up anything, and don't disobey the commander's orders. As for Leo..." Speaking of this, Tepera But he sighed, and then a somewhat helpless look appeared on his face.

"That guy is afraid of pain." Tepela said with a tangled look.

"Huh?" Allen didn't think there was anything to be confused about being afraid of pain. It's normal to be afraid of pain, but Tepera's expression was a little strange.

"That guy can't bear a little pain, even if it's a little pain, he will howl for a long time." Tepela helplessly helped his forehead.

Allen froze for a moment, and suddenly recalled the scene where Leo was rolling all over the floor just now, and suddenly seemed to understand a little bit.

"During the last investigation and patrol outside the wall, Leo was injured and cried and said that he could not investigate. The captain's face turned blue."

"What's the injury?" Allen looked at Tepela, vaguely feeling that the woman was waiting for him to ask questions.

"While wiping the table, a small cut was made on the pulp of my finger by sawdust." Tepera's face became more tangled.

"..." Even Alan didn't know how to respond now, so he didn't investigate because of this wound?

"So Captain Levi agreed?" Allen looked at Tepera suspiciously.

"I agree." Tepea nodded.

"..." Allen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that Captain Levi was loved by the team members, and such things could be tolerated.

"Captain Levi directly beat Leo to paralysis. It was so painful that he couldn't cry out and had to lie on the bed to recuperate." Tepera said helplessly, not knowing that it was the attribute of being afraid of Leo's pain Feeling speechless, I am still more entangled with the commander's law of violence.

Allen was taken aback, and now he didn't know whether he should say that the relationship between the captain and Leo was good.

However, the captain is really domineering!

"But, if you are so afraid of pain, why do you still want to join the Survey Corps?" Allen raised his eyes in doubt. The mortality rate of the Survey Corps is well known. On the knife's edge.

It's just that Tepera didn't answer this question, but just looked at Alan quietly with those soft eyes.Alan paused for a moment and understood something. He really didn't need anyone to answer this question.

Everyone's original intention of joining the Survey Corps may be different, but they all fought against giants for the freedom of mankind.

So what if you are afraid of pain?All humans are afraid of pain, but they still gather together for a hope, just to break free from the giant wall that has bound humans for hundreds of years.

"Ellen!"

"Yes!"

Allen, who was called by name, immediately replied loudly, and his body involuntarily put on the most standard military posture. Even so, he couldn't hide the panic on his face when he saw Captain Levi suddenly appearing at the door.

Allen swallowed uneasily, just because the expression on the man's face was too gloomy, and there seemed to be chilling anger in those dark eyes.

"Re-clean the upstairs floors!"

"Yes!"

Allen nodded immediately, then picked up the broom and ran out of the room and rushed upstairs.

When he walked to the upstairs floor, Allen was a little tangled with the broom, and it was obviously cleaned well.

Thinking about it like this, Alan didn't dare to say anything, but just opened a room at random, and began to sweep the floor more carefully from the corner.

Allen's sight was suddenly attracted by the flash of white outside the window. When he turned his head to look out the window, with good eyesight, he clearly saw a white paper airplane flying across the blue sky.

Paper airplanes?

Allen stepped towards the window, looking at the paper airplane flying in the air and then hiding in the woods with some doubts. The boy leaned most of his body out of the window and looked up. Who is playing with the paper airplane?

"Leo?"

Allen looked at the purple-haired man sitting on the clock tower and called his name unintentionally.

"Yo, Alan, do you want to come up and sit for a while?"

Leo bent down, looked down at Alan who was leaning forward, and waved his hand friendly.

Allen hesitated for a moment, but then nodded, and climbed out from the window. With a neat figure, he turned over and climbed to the upper floor. Some distance from the position of the bell tower, Allen trotted on the roof and faced inward. Go in the direction of O.

Looking at the man's smile, Allen suddenly felt much more comfortable than when he first saw Leo. I don't know if it was because of the change in the man's smile, or because he saw the man rolling around with his head in his arms. affected.

"Didn't you take a shower?" Allen asked, looking at Leo who was still covered in ashes.

"..." Leo's smile froze for a moment, as if he didn't expect that this would be the first question Alan saw him.

"I won't make a report." Allen looked at Leo's stiff expression, thought for a while and said sincerely.

"..." Levi's gloomy expression appeared in Leo's head, and he gave Allen a grateful glance.

After a while, Leo suddenly felt as if he had been led into a ditch by this new kid.

The purple-haired man frowned slightly, tore another page from the open book beside him, folded another paper airplane nimbly with his fingers, and threw it into the air.

fly, fall.

An arc was drawn in the air without leaving a trace, but the whiteness seemed bright enough to stay in memory.

Allen's gaze involuntarily followed the trail of the paper plane, and then the paper plane hit a pole and fell, and two dark green cloaks of the Survey Corps were hung on the pole.

The symbol of Wings of Liberty on the cloak flutters in the air, and the afterglow of the setting sun falls on the Wings of Liberty, which is holy but also filled with blood. That kind of contradictory beauty makes people unable to move their eyes away, only to feel that the Wings of Liberty About to break free and fly free.

"Like it? Wings of Liberty?"

Hearing the words in his ear, Allen realized that he was stunned. He looked back at Leo with some embarrassment, only to find that the man's gaze was also on the dark green cloak.

Like it?

Allen nodded.

Definitely like it.

From the wings of freedom, human beings see hope, flight, and freedom.

"Did you see the birds in the sky?" Leo's eyes slowly shifted to the birds flying out of the woods from time to time.

"Yeah." Allen nodded.

"That's proof that he survived because he was too weak." Leo's voice was low.

"Huh?" Allen looked at Leo suspiciously, but felt that the man's pupils seemed to be stained with a dark color.

"Human beings are the same. They don't hesitate to plant wings for themselves in order to survive, but in fact, they are still too weak, aren't they?" Leo said softly, such fragile words seemed to be muttering to himself, and the moment he uttered the words Drowned in the wind, without a trace.

Allen was startled, staring at Leo in surprise.

At that moment, Allen felt that his throat was dry, and it seemed that a negative feeling called sadness and helplessness surged up from the bottom of his heart, just because of the man in front of him.I don't know why, but in the eyes of everyone, it is a positive hope, but in Leo's mouth, there are always different meanings.

He obviously felt that what Leo said was wrong, but he didn't know how to refute it.

In order to survive, they strive to pursue weak humans.

——How could this sentence be true?

"Then do you think Captain Levi is also weak?" Allen was quiet for a while, then asked Leo back.

Leo turned his head and looked at the brilliance in the boy's eyes, but couldn't help laughing again, "Levi, that guy has the ability to make people feel inferior, isn't he the strongest of mankind?" Leo With a bright smile, he reached out and tore a piece of paper, and folded another paper airplane casually.

"You two, get off!"

A cold voice with concealed anger came from their ears, and Alan and Leo's bodies trembled at the same time, and then they both looked at Levi with a guilty conscience at the window downstairs.

Leo stood up one step ahead of Allen, jumped sensitively to Levi's floor, and then jumped into the room from the window while Levi took a step back.

It's just obvious that when Levi looked at Leo who was still in gray, his face was even more gloomy as if he was about to kill someone.

"Aren't I exchanging feelings with the younger generation? That guy admires you very much." Leo smiled softly, and then stuffed the paper airplane in Levi's hands regardless, "I also I compliment you."

The purple-haired man had a flattering smile on his face, as if he didn't notice Levi's increasingly gloomy expression, Leo smiled and leaned into Levi's ear.

"No one will surpass you again."

As soon as he finished speaking, Leo immediately turned around and ran away, as if he was followed by an evil spirit, running at lightning speed.

But Alan, who was still sitting on the bell tower, was crying. He didn't know whether he should go down now, but seeing the soldier holding the paper plane in his hand with a terrifying murderous look on his face, Alan suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, and felt A premonition of doom.

Allen looked carefully at the commander's expression, while uneasily thinking about how violent and terrifying the commander's punishment would be.

The man stood by the window, with elegant nose, powerful side face, black hair swaying in the breeze, with a sense of tranquility.Those eyes that were always cold and piercing were an unbelievable black, and the sunlight did not enter his eyes at all.

The man lowered his head, looked at the paper airplane in his right hand, frowned slightly, bent his five fingers, and then slowly let go. Then unexpectedly, the man reached out and grabbed the paper airplane and threw it out the window.

The piece of paper slipped away from the fingertips, and a trace of white was particularly conspicuous in the setting sun.

Allen looked at Levi's actions with some surprise, and then followed the paper airplane with his eyes, and the white traced a perfect arc in the air, but fell into the well in front of the building.

Then Allen turned his head and looked at the window again, but couldn't help being stunned.

That strong and cruel man stood quietly by the window, with a soft smile on his lips.
