Only you are irreplaceable

Chapter 40 The Girl in the Crystal

Five hours after the 57th investigation outside the wall, there were many people standing scattered in the dark dungeon. Except for the wounded sent to Claire, the rest of the people who participated in the core operation gathered in the dungeon.

Allen leaned stiffly against the cold wall, and the slightly protruding stones behind him were somewhat chrome. He adjusted his standing posture and looked curiously at the white cloth zongzi that Aurora carried down.

He was curious, who is the enemy?

Aurora put Ani on the small bed prepared in the prison, and looked solemnly at the three Alans in the outer circle of their eyes, as if they wanted to say something.She took a deep breath and began to remove the bandages on Ani's face.

As circles of white cloth fell to the ground, finally, the owner of the giantess revealed her true face.

Armin took a step back in shock, "This...this is..."

No wonder, when he first met the giantess, he had a feeling of déjà vu, and she also responded when he yelled out the nickname Allen, which only his contemporaries knew.

All the coincidences add up to make people feel suspicious, but it is still a bit difficult to accept when the truth is directly in front of us.

Allen's lips trembled slightly, as if his throat was strangled, and he wanted to speak subconsciously to defend her, but realized that the murderer who killed the seniors was the partner in front of him.Bitterness and fear were crushed and intertwined in his heart, and his feet softened accidentally, and Mikasa, who had quick eyes and quick hands, supported his arms and straightened him upright. "Alan, how are you? Are you uncomfortable?"

Allen's dark green pupils shook, and he kept shaking his head while leaning on the wall, obviously unable to accept this fact. "Did you make a mistake? How could it be...how could it be Ani? Impossible! Although she is usually cold, but she..."

Levi's brows condensed into a plain word, and he stopped with a strong attitude: "Alan! Do you know how many people she killed?"

"58." Aurora sat on the ground and replied, her voice was freezing cold.

Mi Ke took the death list this time and handed it to Alvin, "No one in the right-wing scout squad survived, and Aurora's unit... also lost most of its personnel."

Mikasa worriedly looked at Aurora who lowered her head, she was still wondering why the sub-leader who always put on a smiley face looked so lifeless and desperate, it turned out to be the reason.

Alvin took the death list, his chest was heavy like a boulder. "This is the highest number of victims of extramural investigations in the past two years."

Aurora got up and walked to Ani, leaned over and asked, "No matter what we ask you, you don't intend to answer, do you?"

Ani's mouth has healed up long ago, but no matter how Aurora uses words to defeat the opponent's psychological defense, it is still useless.

She never said a word.

Except for the faint voice of father in the carriage.

Seeing Ani's resolute attitude, Aurora shook her head helplessly at Alvin.They can't do anything to her without permission. After all, she is a member of the Gendarmerie. At least they can't torture her until tomorrow when they go to the capital to obtain permission.

"Go up first, I'll watch her here."

After sending everyone away, Aurora sat on the ground and stopped talking to Ani. She stared at Ani for a while, looking at Ani struggling, with a trace of imperceptible helplessness mixed with resentment, and finally sighed , Don't overturn your head and close your eyes.

Ani was a little surprised, she was already prepared to be tortured.

But why did they...did nothing?Is it just because she is going to be handed over to the capital?

The people she killed in the forest were all subordinates of this woman.

Why didn't she kill herself right away?

More than an hour later, Levi entered the dungeon with food, "Eat something first."

Aurora ate the food in small bites. She was usually very devout about food, but in today's situation, it was rare for her to experience the tasteless feeling again.

After finishing the meal, Aurora took a piece of soft bread and broke it into small pieces and handed it to Ani's mouth.

Ani was stunned for a while, but didn't open her mouth. She looked up at Aurora. She hesitated for a long time before asking, "Why?"

"Why? Eat quickly." After speaking, he stuffed the bread into Ani's mouth involuntarily.

Just feeding them one mouthful at a time, the silent atmosphere was broken by Levi's chuckle, the corner of his mouth curled up like a smile but not a smile.

Aurora patted the crumbs on her hands, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

"She killed so many people, but she let go of all the contemporaries. Especially Almin, who escaped from her hands twice."

"Really?" Aurora looked at the girl with an indifferent face, "It seems that you don't care about everything."

After ordering the guarding soldiers, Levi took Aurora's hand to the rooftop.

Levi gently wrapped his arms around Aurora's slender waist, reached out and pressed her head on his shoulder: "I'm still here."

Aurora hugged Levi back, her nose was a little sore, she blinked frequently to hold back her tears, and responded in a low voice: "Well, I know."

Levi stretched out his hand to cover Aurora's hair, and every time Aurora was in a bad mood, he would comfort her gently in this way, and it has become a habit over time.

"Tomorrow morning, you and Mi Ke will lead most of the 104 soldiers to the south to stand by. Han Ji has already sent people to get their native place reports. We will send people over after we find out the accomplices, but the most important part depends on you and Mi Ke. That's fine."

Aurora leaned into Levi's arms and nodded, and the two stood there for a long time, hugging each other and bathing in the bright moonlight.

"How long will this day last? I'm a little tired."

Levi couldn't answer, a moment of struggle and exhaustion flashed in his gray-blue eyes.

They have been in the Corps for six years and have witnessed the joining and death of countless companions, but they still have no way of knowing what lies beyond the walls.

He once had a dream that there were only the two of them in the hut in the forest, living a comfortable and leisurely life every day at sunrise and sunset.

No giants, no cold corpses.

There is only a paradise left.

It's a pity that reality doesn't allow it. Anyone can say give up, but they can't.If they fall, who will do these things?

He understood from a long time ago that people like them may have to do more in this cruel world to be worthy of this power.

The next day, Han Ji came to the dungeon early to pick up Ani from Aurora, and the convoy set off to the capital after being ready to go.

On the carriage, Ani sat alone on one side, opposite her were Levi, Mikasa, and Armin, and the others formed a small team to surround the carriage.

It was only after listening to Armin this morning that he realized that the giantess was captured in the forest yesterday. He thought it was the scariest thing. Unexpected things were yet to come. Armin revealed it in the next sentence Knowing the true identity of the giantess, she was so frightened that she almost sprayed water on Mikasa's hair.

Thinking of this, Jean asked Allen on the side with a sullen face: "What happened to you yesterday? And why are only a few of us here on this mission, what about Koni and the others?"

Allen pretended to cough a few times, leaned over and replied in a low voice: "Don't be so loud... This is the candidate appointed by Captain Erwin, and I don't know why you are here. What happened yesterday was the captain of the Aurora branch. She was caught alone, I don't know how to do it, she was the only one at that time. When we went back, Ani was already beaten to death..."

Let the eyebrows raised in shock after hearing this, and forced out a few forehead lines.

He recalled the appearance of Aurora, who was amazingly beautiful, petite, and cheerful. He was the officer he thought was the best to get along with after joining the Corps.Although I only took her class a few times, I didn't delay my affection for her at all.

After all, Mikasa often mentioned this sub-captain, and praised her without hesitation in words, which was in stark contrast to the gnashing of teeth when referring to Captain Levi.

How can such a small body contain such a huge amount of energy?

In the carriage, Armin saw that Ani kept her eyes closed, so she secretly glanced at Ani's wound. Her hands and feet have not grown well, maybe the team leader's attack was too ruthless?It hasn't grown out overnight.

After driving for several hours, everyone finally arrived at the Stohess area of ​​Sheena's Wall.

The creaking sound of the carriage made one feel drowsy, and the noise outside the carriage was getting louder and louder. It sounded like they had entered the busiest neighborhood.

Ani opened his eyes at this moment, and asked Almin, "Why did I let you go then?"

Facing the sudden questioning, Armin was a little at a loss, and he also wanted to know why Ani let him go twice.

Before he could figure it out, Ani waved his ungrown arm and attacked Almin, and Mikasa at the side immediately drew out his knife and slashed at Ani.

"and many more!!"

Levi shot while drinking, he tried to stop Mikasa's attack, but it was still a step too late, Ani's arm had already hit the sharp blade.

"Tch... retreat quickly!!" Without hesitation, Levi raised his hand and cut through the curtain of the carriage, picked up Armin and Mikasa and escaped from the carriage.

Armin looked back at Ani in the air, the girl's hands and feet grew miraculously, exuding thick mist-like steam, and the arms were covered with blood, he moved his gaze upwards, it was Ani's weird and gloomy smiling face .

On the streets with people coming and going, accompanied by the sound resonating from the ground, a golden lightning flashed in the sky, and the giantess appeared in the city.

Many civilians were affected by the explosion, and many rocks were knocked down from nearby houses. Screams and cries echoed one after another, resounding over the Stohess area.

Although Erwin and the others heard Levi's shout, it was difficult to avoid them completely. Most of the soldiers closest to the carriage were torn apart.

Surprisingly, Ani didn't seem to want to lose his mind in the city, but ran towards the wall at full speed when everyone was distracted.

Levi landed next to Erwin who was blown to the ground by the impact, his slightly frowning showed that he had reached the verge of anger, and he asked Erwin, "What should I do?"

Erwin struggled to get up from the ground, covering his injured left arm with his right hand, looking a little embarrassed, "It seems that we have made another miscalculation, if we can master the giant's words proficiently, we may be able to control the recovery time of the wound." , we were placed together."

The two were still discussing countermeasures, and Allen, who fell farther, used his hands and feet to help the buried residents prop up the stones.In front of him sat a crying little girl whose father had been crushed in half by a stone.

Mikasa finally found Alan's figure in the crowd, she rushed up to hold Alan's arm and asked anxiously: "Alan, are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"

Allen had no time to take care of himself, and only focused on the work at hand. He replied without turning his head: "Mikasa, help me move together."

"I...my child, please... please." The young man exhausted his last breath of strength to finish the sentence, smiled reluctantly in the direction of his daughter, and then closed his eyes.

Allen was taken aback for a moment, then continued to yell and continue what he was doing. Accompanied by the girl's heart-piercing cries, Mikasa raised her hand to stop him.

"Alan, he... is dead."

Allen paused, looking at the man's bloody body, his hands were shaking uncontrollably, and then looked at the horrific disaster scene around him.

After being silent for a few seconds, Allen turned around angrily, the veins on his neck rose with rage, and ran out screaming in the direction Ani was running, with tears in the corners of his eyes falling into the air.

There was another earth-shattering bang, and the giant Allen roared and rushed towards Ani like a demon coming out of hell.

His speed was astonishingly fast. Ani was about to turn around when he heard the change, but Alan was accumulating strength to jump forward and successfully grabbed Ani's ankle. Two giants more than ten meters high were rolling and crawling Fighting desperately on the ground.

Erwin stood on the roof and issued an order to all capable soldiers, "Everyone! Enter the fighting situation! Help Allen capture the giantess!"

Alan stretched out his left hand and locked Ani's neck and lay back. The stone road under him immediately became fragmented. Ani turned back with Alan's force, and his left leg, which had already hardened, moved rapidly. Swept and kicked half of Allen's head.

Alan stabilized his leaning body and punched him with a brute force. Ani lowered his body while raising his crystallized hand and smashed Alan's sternum with an elbow. Alan staggered back Kneeling on the ground in two steps.

Ani didn't give Alan a chance to get up, turned around and raised his right leg and kicked Alan with all his strength, knocking Alan to the ground and making him unable to move.

A three-dimensional mobile sound suddenly appeared, and Ani covered the back of his neck and looked around vigilantly, and the atmosphere became unprecedentedly tense.Mikasa's figure flashed out first, spinning at high speed and trying to chop at the back of Ani's hand.A crisp cracking sound resounded in the air, Mikasa looked at the broken blade in his hand in surprise, and subconsciously wanted to avoid the sharp blade, but Ani suddenly reached out and grabbed Mikasa's three-dimensional maneuver at this moment, Mikasa's body being brought One fell straight to the ground.

Levi rushed out from the other end at this moment, the valve of the gas had been opened to the maximum, and the gas poured out instantly, he spun like a top and cut off Ani's palm, picked up Mikasa and put it under his arm and dodged Park on the roof.

Allen fell to the ground and watched the two of them circling with Ani. There were several corpses lying quietly beside him, one of which was still intact, and most of the others were only half-length, or were directly pierced by boulders. up.

Shops and streets, as far as the eye can see, are ruins.

He couldn't believe that the partner who had been with him day and night for three years was actually an enemy, and it was her who caused so many tragedies.

Obviously, she was the one who answered his question.

She even taught herself martial arts...

Arnie, why?

Why do you do such a thing?

Why do innocent people die?

Why, our peaceful life will be broken?

Why should we be trapped within these three walls like domestic animals, unable to know the meaning of freedom for the rest of our lives.

Annie, tell me.

Why deprive others of their freedom?

Allen forced himself to stand up, even though half of his body was beaten to pieces and bleeding, it couldn't stop him from continuing to fight.

He dragged his body and rushed up again.

It was a fierce battle. Allen and Ani fought inextricably in the urban area. At the last moment, Allen even lost his mind. Mikasa, who was following closely, was heartbroken. She wanted to step forward All the help was stopped by Levi.

Finally, on the city wall, Arnie, who was halfway up, was cut off by Levi.

Like a bird with its wings broken, it fell from the sky.

Allen, who was crawling on the ground with his limbs gone, turned red. At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind, that is, he wanted to drive out all the giants, leaving no one behind.

He growled and bit the back of Arnie's neck.

That was Ani that Almin had never seen before, the blond girl was lying there quietly.

Fragile and fragile, she is a different person from her usual cold and calm.

In the end, they got nothing.Whether it's intelligence or military exploits that could have been the achievements of the Survey Corps.

All that was left was the ruined Stohess District, and countless human lives.

Arnie wrapped up the secrets of himself and the giant, lay quietly in the crystal and fell asleep silently.

Armin stared obsessively at the angrily breaking the blade inch by inch. He was standing in front of Ani and questioning loudly, but he was helpless against the hard crystal, and finally he could only sit on the ground and mutter to himself.

Armin looked up at the sky. For some reason, he always felt that the way Ani fell at the end was full of despair.

What was she thinking the moment she climbed the wall at the end?
