Burning because of you [Interstellar]

The thick hatch melted into one piece from the center, revealing the unknown human experiment room inside.

The sprinkler was automatically turned on due to the high temperature, and in the humid water vapor in the room, Rhine stood silently, the flame on his body was not affected by the sprinkler, and he was motionless, but stared at Adonis with a blank expression, his eyes seemed to tear him apart all the time.

Adonis knelt aside, knowing that he still lost.Lost to Philo.

Someday, Philo's transparent body suddenly disappeared without warning.Adonis has been hiding it from Rhine. Rhine observes his body in the laboratory all day long, trying to find a way to revive Filo from the abilities bestowed by Filo.

As the only person who wanted to save Filo, the most unacceptable stimulus for him was that he didn't even notice Filo's disappearance in order to save him.

Rhine became something wrong from that day on. Adonis found out that he was intentionally killing people and completely violated the rules of human experiments, so he locked the mad Rhine into the laboratory.

Rhine would say a few words to him at first, but Adonis never dared to let him go.Without a response, Rhine became increasingly insane.

Close the Rhine These days, Adonis guards the door day after day, the Rhine inside the door is like a wild beast hitting the gate, Adonis can only guard, more and more at a loss.

I have special thoughts about Rhine, shouldn't I accompany Rhine to do my best.

What's more, as one of the ethnic groups with Filo's blood, I have every reason to disturb the human world for the tradition that was lost with Filo's death.

But even he couldn't take his feelings into account, Rhine had completely lost his mind.

The ethnic group can use the holy stone to use the fire ability, but the fire ability is also the natural enemy of the ethnic group. If Rhine uses it wantonly, it will only threaten Adonis.

But now it's useless to think about anything, he still got away.

Rhine walked up to him and lifted his chin.

Hot sparks rose from the finger that landed on the chin.Adonis felt as if his body had disappeared, and looked at him with a complicated expression, but the other party's eyes were only a dead red.

Adonis slowly curled the corner of his mouth, realizing something, he closed his eyes, and let out a long breath, "Rhein, I know why Philo doesn't like you anymore."

Hearing Filo's name, Rhine suddenly grasped its neck, a bright red flame ignited from the palm of his hand, threw it away, and threw it on the experimental bed.

Adonis survived by luck, panting heavily, and was about to run, but found that the person on the test bed moved.

These people are those who volunteered to be studied, but they have not eaten for several days, and their nutrient solution has almost been lost, so they should not be able to move anymore.

The people on the test bed slowly opened their eyes, their eyes were as red as Rhine's, and fiery red flame stars gradually surrounded them.

Adonis shuddered, and was suddenly grabbed by Rhine and pressed onto another experimenter.

The flame penetrated him from behind, and at the same time, the experimenter below him also opened his fiery eyes.

Adonis was extremely surprised under the severe pain. Rhine has been studying the mechanism of endowing human beings with supernatural powers, and he came up with the answer successfully by such a coincidence.

The ethnic group uses the holy stone as a medium to use the fire ability, while humans or people who are given the ability by Filo use the ethnic group as the medium to endow other humans with abilities.

Rhine was also quite surprised and stood motionless.

"Not enough." He said suddenly, "It still can't burn that thing."

He let go of Adonis and looked down at his hands.

The next second, his terminal rang.

Rhine answered the call and murmured, "Pernath?"

He picked up absently, and after listening for a while, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

Before the passage collapsed, Demon and Evanro returned the same way. Before reaching the door, the terminal rang endlessly.

He connected, and a small, muffled voice came, a little hasty, "Major General, it seems that we can't get out. At the beginning, the customs investigation was suddenly strengthened, and it meant a complete blockade. I have already gone to find out the reason. If you want to leave As soon as possible, it seems that something happened at the beginning."

Evanro quickly replied, "Okay, can you get the signal from Shenji Kingdom outside?"

Xiao Meng paused for two seconds, and then came the voice of pressing the screen, "Yes."

"Help me keep an eye on the movement of Shenji Nation, I will meet you."

He hung up the call, flipped through the terminal for a while, and was silent for a moment, "Gurov is dead. The one in the research area. I am from Shenji, and they will definitely take me down." Evanlo quickened his pace and said to Demon: "Do you have anything else to check? You didn't leave as soon as possible. Perte knew our identities. They stole the Shenji Nation's household registration database. You were discovered when you came in through the freight passage."

No wonder Evanro chose to enter from underwater, and Demon thought about agreeing.

The two quickened their pace. After going out, they felt strangely quiet. They looked at each other and knew that there was an ambush nearby.

Sure enough, tear gas roared and projected from a high place, and before they fell and burst, Demon had already been caught by Evanro, who was covered in liquid mecha, and rushed towards the exit of the Black Sea connection at high speed.

"The speed of the sea water can't catch up." Evanlo pushed Demon's head into his arms, and looked back at the people in the Yishi Development Zone who kept chasing after him.Seeing that he opened the terminal freely, without shaking his fingers, he confirmed that an entrance was drilled in, and after a few precise turns, he escaped from the hole. The terminal contacted Xiaomen, and Xiaomen immediately shared a direction.

Demon found that Ivanlo's terminal seemed to be different from ordinary models, and more like his own research and development. The windows of seven or eight pages were constantly exchanging information, even if Ivanlo did not move, the terminal would automatically transmit information.

Soon, Ivan Luo, who was familiar with the operation, found the location of Xiaomen, and saw that the faces of the five people were extremely bad. Seeing him coming, Xiaomen hastily clicked on a special channel for news and soldiers of Shenji Kingdom, "God Machine China is under attack, do you know what, let's go back, but there is no suitable spaceship yet. They won't say that cutting off will cut off all trade, we are waiting for the time to get rid of those things, and move on A cargo ship."

When it comes to "those things", although Xiao Men is ambitious, he has no confidence.

Demon looked up and saw metal machines coming out of the freight passage in human shapes. They must have been made in the development zone, and they were specially designed to receive goods in the passageway in an emergency. The iron-walled body served as a security guard.

After confirming that he could ignite them, Demon looked at Xiao Men's terminal and was immediately stunned.

In news pictures and videos, someone died of spontaneous combustion. Before dying, his eyes turned red and he was in great pain.No one knows the reason, this is already an hour ago, and the news of the same kind is constantly being refreshed, and the accumulation of those scenes is even more appalling.

Demon's mind was blank, and he immediately thought of Rhine.

He looked at the robots gathered together, and then at a cargo ship that had been greeted and was about to berth, retreated to the distance, and dialed the terminal of Adonis in a low voice.

The other party who has always been connected at the first time now only has a busy tone.

So wrong.

The Twilight Kingdom's signal did not radiate so far, so he couldn't contact Zhao Wanli and the others, waiting for the busy signal in vain.

However, in the middle of his ominous premonition, before Adonis was able to wait, Demon saw the captain and brother Leng rushing into the robot group suddenly.

The two were extremely fast, and seemed to want to rush in to control the spaceship while the robots were not paying attention, and the timing was well grasped, so they shouldn't have been discovered.

But Pernat's voice came from everyone's terminal, "Evan Luo and the other five people, kill them all, there is no need to keep alive."

His voice was calm to the point of gloomy, completely different from the clean-tempered Pernat in Demon's impression.

The actions of the robots stopped abruptly, and then they all turned to look at the captain and Brother Leng.

Demon's ominous premonition was even worse. He rushed up with Evanlo, blocked the attack of a robot first, and then saw Ivanlo picked up the two of them and left. Demon was relieved, but knew that he couldn't stand it anymore. He took a deep breath, letting the repressed heat seep out of his body one by one, thinking about melting the screws and other connecting parts of these robots, but at this moment his brain buzzed, and he was brutally seeped out by the fire ability, even himself The pain was unbearable.

It seemed that some external force was pulling the flames in his body. Demon couldn't open his eyes in pain, but he could barely feel the red light in the dark.

He barely opened his eyes and found a red spar stuck in the gap in the robot's chest.

Not only that, but based on his sense of the red dot, he could clearly know that every robot chest was temporarily inlaid with this thing, and it was being transported from a distance in a planned way.

The red dots in his mind were constantly enlarging, tearing and twisting him. Demon struggled desperately, but couldn't think. He only knew that the robot beside him had been burned into molten iron, but the red spar was still affecting him, and his body was extremely hot. It can be suppressed, rationality allows him to disconnect quickly so that there is no pain, but emotion makes him refuse to let go of his will no matter what.He knew that in this state, Evanro, the five people, and other innocent people would definitely be injured.

He kept telling himself not to move, not to move, not to move, kneeling on the ground, wanting to tear the ground apart in pain, after hellish torture, he finally collapsed on the ground exhausted, with his head resting on his arms, staring blankly at his bloody flesh skin.

There are only three words in the brain like brainwashing: don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes.

"quick!"

In a blur of consciousness, someone was waving and shouting, not at him, but at Ivanlo.

Demon's world kept spinning, and then flew into the air, feeling being hugged by someone. The other person's movements were very gentle and extremely slow, without any slight shaking. It took a long time to get on the cargo ship amidst the urging sound, and he never let go he.Even the buffer of the moving cargo ship was skillfully resisted by the opponent, hugging his muscles that were still stiff when walking, and relaxing for him at this time, Demon buried himself in his arms with inertia, and being too sleepy, unexpectedly I felt that I was bumping my head into the cotton, and I was so comfortable that I didn't want to get up.

A lowly voice interjected, "Hey, it's all like this, this golden hair is not burning... Is his hair in other places still there?"

Demon: "..." Demon wanted to complain about his attention to the atmosphere, but he swallowed the words after seeing the cheap face.This man's face was a little pale, and he didn't even look at him when he was talking to him, his eyes flickered unsteadily, as if the nonsense was just to stabilize his mood.

Someone put a coat on him and let out a "shush".

Demon felt that someone was giving him medicine, and when his hand brushed his face, his fingertips seemed to tremble because of distress.

Every trace of concern from the heart is precious to Demon. He felt warm in his heart and wanted to tell the other party that he was fine, but when he was distracted, his eyelids could no longer support him, and his consciousness quickly fell into darkness.

When he opened his eyes again, he swallowed involuntarily, and someone gave him water.Demon opened his eyes, saw a pair of blue eyes, and subconsciously thought of Luo Luo... and someone.

Xiao Men, who was hugging his upper body, blinked, took away the water glass, and said pleasantly to several people, "Wake up."

It was only then that Demon realized that the other party was Xiao Men. He was a little disappointed, but he didn't care, and looked at his arm.

The skin seemed to have just healed on the surface, but it was still very fragile inside, and it hurt to move. Even he felt that he needed another layer of truffle-like healing medicine.

Xiao Mian was originally happy, but after watching Demon for a while, he became strange and vigilant again, "The news from Shenji Kingdom said that you are the culprit for the supernatural matter, we have already reported it to Tiannao, and Evanro will send you Bring back."

"Are you awake?" Jianjian came over with a smile, tied his hands behind his back, and clicked his hands, "I'll handcuff you when I wake up. I really can't see that you are still a little king."

Demon was handcuffed, and after reacting for a while, he remembered that the optical mask had been burned long ago, and Evanlo now knew who he was.

He swept his gaze, and immediately locked on Ivan Luo who was sitting by the wall wiping his knife three meters away from him.

Evanluo looked indifferent, aware of his gaze, and stared at it for a while without any reaction.Before Demon looked away, he looked away impatiently. Even if he was impatient, his flat eyebrows did not frown at all, and he remained calm.

Demon didn't know if it was out of defense against himself, or out of... trivial things over the years.

He wanted to ask a lot, such as why he suddenly wanted to be reinstated as an official, but Evanro turned back with his disgusted eyes.

Demon thought, this is actually good, anyway, this is not a suitable time for the two to contact.

"Where are you flying now?" He sat up and rubbed his temples.

The few people were embarrassed again, Brother Leng and the captain didn't want to talk, Jianjian flirted with Brother Lazy, Xiao Tan wanted to speak, and paid attention to Ivanlo, who was as immobile as a mountain.

Demon wanted to roll his eyes upwards, but suppressed it.No matter how angry you are, you don't owe anyone.

After a while, the lazy brother said, "Hey, let me come."

He glanced at Ivan Luo, quickly withdrew his gaze, and stammered, "Well, someone has to say it anyway, right?"

Evanlo: "..."

Brother Lazy squatted in front of Demon, took out the terminal, and pointed to a star map that Demon was familiar with, "We are here, it is an asteroid belt. Perte was trapped here three months ago, I feel that entering There is no problem here, Perte is not familiar with the terrain and will not chase in...but I made a mistake." Lazy brother looked very tired, "There is still a group of people who have been guarding here, maybe Perte's accomplices, who are familiar with this place Pretty much. Now it’s like we’re stuck here, hiding.”

Demon groaned, remembering that the terminal was gone, but also remembered that he might not be able to contact Zhao Wanli here. After thinking about it, he suddenly said to Evan Luo, "Lend me your terminal."

Evanro didn't hesitate at all: "I didn't save your numbers."

Demon paused for a moment, then said "Yes", "Lend me, I'll call Mia."

"What are you looking for him for?"

Demon sneered at the corner of his mouth, "Why, are you upset that I'm looking for your wife?"

Evanlo: "..."

A terminal was thrown over, and Demon stretched out his hand to grab it, deliberately glanced at Ivano, opened the light screen in front of him, and flipped through the address book, "Miya..."

He intended to find Miya, but after opening the address book, he was still taken aback.

Miya is first.The second is the "false son", probably the one who was adopted.From the third to the No. 30, all of them are colleagues with a soldier prefix.Scrolling down, there are some fragmentary notes without names.

Demon couldn't help feeling depressed.

Evan Luo seemed upset that he had turned his privacy, "How long do you want to watch? Do you like watching it that much?"

The latter sentence directly satirized Demon, and Demon replied with the same tone, "I'll just borrow a terminal, how long are you going to stare at? So confident? Do you feel that you are so attractive that others want to be stronger... "

never mind.He stopped suddenly, and actually didn't even utter the word "qiang".He bowed his head and tapped the call button of Miya, who was in the first place, and the other party answered quickly.

Demon remembered that Zhao Wanli said that Miya shed tears every day, and he probably jumped up when he received this call.Demon was mentally prepared, and was about to explain, when Miya appeared on the screen with the face of a bustard, "Hey, remember to contact me?"

This is different from what he thought, and Demon was taken aback.

Miya was also taken aback for a moment, and upon seeing this, Evanlo walked over directly.

Demon skipped over the question, "Giovanni, oh no, Zhao Wanli, is it with you?"

Hearing the sound, Zhao Wanli leaned over, seeing acquaintances, his complexion was not good-looking, "I warned you a long time ago, don't be with those..." His pupils moved to Ivan Luo's face, and he paused, "Are you together?"

"Well, I was caught by him, and the terminal is gone. Can you come from the Pure Saturn Cruise Fleet, and I will send you the coordinates."

Zhao Wanli's expression was blank for a moment, and before he could reply, Miya squeezed her head over, "Fleet? You are right, Evanluo, can you talk to the little princess?"

little princess?

Demon ignored how this weird title came about for now, looked at the people around him, and found that the atmosphere was unusually gloomy.

Zhao Wanli snatched back the terminal, "Demon, the situation is not good now. People with fire powers keep appearing and attacking the residents of Shenji Kingdom. The administrative agencies have unanimously emphasized arresting you, and they also took away your fire powers a few years ago. The evidence. The kingdom has been blocked, and it is no surprise that it will merge with the Shenji Kingdom. You don’t have to worry about the kingdom. I heard that you are rushing over, right.”

"We're stuck."

Zhao Wanli frowned, but said, "It's fine to be trapped. Now those uncontrolled fire powers are making a mess here. Shenji Nation was helpless at first, but within a day, there was a way to suppress them, and Arresting people for research. It is also dangerous for you to appear now. But arresting you is not the real purpose. Dissecting you is not as effective as directly targeting other supernatural beings. Now no one knows that you have been arrested. In this case, there is no need to rush to convict , the person who spread the news of your crime is likely to want to use your ability..."

The screen flickered suddenly, sand and gravel poured down from it, the light dimmed, and the camera drifted aside.

It was only then that Demon saw that Zhao Wanli and Miya were not in the room, and more than one building had collapsed. There was a small group of people far away from them, also hiding here in a daze.

Zhao Wanli paused, and after showing his fatigue, his expression was a little shaken, "As long as it really has nothing to do with you, what I just said is correct. De Meng, tell me, you really didn't associate with those people?"

Demon remained silent.

Zhao Wanli closed his eyes and held his breath, "...I knew... I just said how the kingdom was built so fast. I probably know your relationship. You were used without directly interfering, right. No one except me People will believe you." He looked at Evanro, as he said, knowing that explanations are useless, so he put his hands on Mia's waist, and said, "You take care of him, and I take care of Mia, Don't be rough until the end of the matter."

When Mia found out that they were trapped, she tapped on the terminal with all her heart and didn't notice his hand. She pursed her lips and looked at it for a while, then shouted, "Evanlo, Jill is willing to find you, but it's just a matter of time." ship, not equipped yet. Private..."

"Who else did you tell?" Ivan Luo's tone was cold.Demon felt that he was having a headache.

"Eh?" Miya was startled, "He's the only one." He and Evanlo looked at each other, paused, and suddenly laughed, "I won't tell others, you unibi who doesn't trust teammates. "

Demon felt that Evanlo was not so wary because of Dubi.

Evanro was silent for a moment, "Does he know what's going on here?"

"Actually, three months ago, he participated in the siege when he heard that you wanted the official to be reinstated. He is quite familiar with the environment."

"I do need such a man. Let him contact me."

Miya nodded, and continued to tap the screen with her fingers, suddenly revealing a bruised elbow, bleeding profusely.Evanro looked at him for a while, "How is your side?"

Miya didn't hear it: "Okay, he's going to pass now. But he said, apart from the invading supernatural beings, there seems to be something outside the atmosphere, some gas clouds are gathered outside, something is wrong."

Demon knew what it was, the same creature as Adonis.They have limited viability in the outside world and all live in gas clouds.Even beside Rhine, there are only one or two taking turns.

Strange, is the spread of fire abilities related to them?

Demon lowered his eyes, and slightly twisted the handcuffs behind him, knowing that he had to ask Rhine for clarification.

Evanro suddenly stopped him, "Have you ever come into contact with those supernatural beings? What are their characteristics?"

Miya frowned, "Your skin is very dark..." He glanced back and said anxiously, "Ah, we have to run away first, you wait for Jill to contact you first."

The call was closed, and the seven people looked at each other. Ivanlo went to the console first, and several positioning clues were locked on the light screen, "We have to prepare its location. This asteroid belt is between the beginning and the Shenji Kingdom." It is difficult even for us to pass through the natural distance. Before Gilfie arrives, we must show him the way."

Several people agreed, and Demon leaned his eyes down to the wall, pressing his wrist behind his back.Unsurprisingly, the black-skinned person was from the Fanstar, and Rhine really cooperated with the radicals from the Fanstar.However, those who are still staying in the Star of Qi and have not been transferred to an external base, even if there is no Rhine, they will be more and more unable to restrain themselves.

If Rhein's test subject is a delusional star, he must go to an external base.If Rhine wants to attack there, he can follow the clues to find the other party.

After a long time, Jill's contact arrived, but the six of them hadn't escaped from the asteroid belt, and they were even more busy. The spaceship that had been trying to intercept them discovered them.Finally, under the cover of Evanro, Jill took a small spaceship and successfully paralleled the cargo ship.

After the two ships were locked, Demon saw Jill, whom he hadn't seen for many years, and was a little dazed.

He is much older. The last time Demon saw him, he was still a serious and reliable young man with a gentle side. Now his blond hair is mixed with silver threads, and the originally calm spirit in his eyes has also faded a lot.

How can a person grow old so quickly?

Evanro walked over and gave him a gentle hug, "Long time no see."

Jill nodded, and the two separated. He glanced at Demon, then looked at the big screen, "It's better to take the prisoner back quickly, the situation over there is not optimistic. This is the person who stopped us?" The locked point, "Now we have two ships, Evanlo, you and the prisoner go back directly, and we will cover you."

Evanlo nodded, turned to look at Demon, his face changed - there was no one by the wall!

The locked connecting hatch between the two spaceships suddenly burst into flames, as if Demon was trying to pass through the wall.Once the hatch breaks, everyone will be sucked out to the outside world.Several people were in a hurry to find something to put out the fire. The fire disappeared before the bucket was full. Demon pressed two buttons on the console, and the hatch connecting the two ships opened immediately, and he hid in with only a crack .

Demon rushed to the bridge, glanced at the order of the buttons, and secretly thanked his past self. Out of his curiosity about Shenji Kingdom, he understood the difference between these private ships and the kingdom.

First press the separation button to separate the two ships, and then set the navigation coordinates to the outer base of the star. As for the equipment lock, just destroy it.

Because the navigation coordinates are important, they are directly recorded in Demon's mind. He smashed the device lock with one punch, canceled the lock program in the emergency alarm, and opened a new page with the other hand to enter the coordinates. He sensed something while inputting, and turned around.

Evanro and Jill came in.Fortunately, the two spaceships have already separated. As long as the coordinates are entered, the private ship will sail to the outer base of the star.

Evanro rushed over first, and his knee pressed hard against his knee socket. Demon knelt down immediately, but he was still losing the coordinates in his hand. Before reaching the wall, finish typing all the content.

Demon was suppressed by Jill, his face was pressed to the ground, and he desperately looked at Evanlo in front of the console.

Evanro pressed the button a few times, touched the light screen, and finally looked at the location of the device lock, his face was stiff, and he looked at Jill, "It's malfunctioning. He changed the coordinates."

De Mengben was also worried that Ivanlo would change the navigation coordinates back, and he was startled when he heard that, presumably the fault was caused by too much damage in his emergency, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The spaceship has headed towards the outer base of Venus.The three were silent for a while, Jill let go of him, got up and went to the operating table, saw the smoking device lock, and looked at him speechlessly.

"Where are you going?"

Daemon pursed his lips, "The outer base of the Venus Star. You should be able to catch the culprit there. His name is Rhine. But you'd better be careful. When we get there, if it is confirmed that Rhine is there, we will destroy all spaceships and Signal station, trap him."

The two looked at each other.

Demon: "I heard that Shenji Nation has developed a method to deal with the fire ability. Can you disclose it in detail? You'd better tell me directly, even if I'm not a good person, I won't be able to threaten for a while. None." When we got there, we just looked for another one.

Ivanlo's terminal rang, and he took it, with a serious brow, "...you just need to continue hiding in the asteroid belt. I will try my best to go back to pick you up. Even if I can't go back, I will find a spaceship to guide you." You guys. I'll contact you later."

He turned off the terminal and said to Jill, "They are quite capable, and the food in the cargo ship can keep them hidden for half a month."

Jill: "How are you sure you'll be back in half a month?"

Demon: "Half a month is enough for a round trip. Find a spaceship and set the coordinates. If the speed is okay, you can arrive in eight or nine days from now. So, has the Shenji Kingdom researched it?"

Jill stared at him, "Give me a reason to believe you."

"I can kill both of you, but I'd rather be half naked here than wear your underwear." Demon shrugged, showing off his small boring Shenji Nation military uniform.This was given to him by Xiao Men after his fire power went berserk because his clothes were burned off.Xiao Men is shorter than him and thinner than him. The front buttons of this clothes are not so easy to fasten. Only the belt that Xiao Men carefully buttoned up can barely cover the waist and abdomen. The long hem of the silver-white uniform only reaches his knees. , a pair of flexible honey-colored legs exposed from the heel to the bare feet.

In fact, if he didn't mention it, no one would notice that he was in a vacuum.

Two people: "..."

Demon corrected: "Or, I'd rather hang up half naked than wear your underwear."

"Enough." Jill interrupted without a word, took out a plastic package from the space account, and handed it to him, "New, never worn."

Demon raised the corner of his mouth, "Thanks." He unwrapped the package, stretched the elastic in front of Jill, raised his head and asked, "Won't you give me a pair of pants?"

Someone else would have asked him if it was over, but Demon felt that Jill seemed to maintain his image intentionally or unintentionally.

Jill just turned his eyes away and looked at Evanlo.Just like what Demon thought, he who cared about his image felt more embarrassed about not wearing pants than Demon, but he couldn't help, "I'm 1.8 meters."

The implication is that Ivanlo is the one with 1.9 meters.

Demon was a little embarrassed, "No need."

However, with a "buzz", Evanlo opened a space account.After a while, a suit of clothes was thrown out of thin air.

Black slim-fit cashmere sweater, suit pants.

As if he felt that it was inconvenient for him to move, Evanlo threw out a pair of loose pants.

Evanro added: "I wore it."

Demon didn't really want to take it at first, but after hearing it... I kind of wanted to say why don't you take a pair of worn underwear.

When he changed his clothes and put on the new underwear Jill gave him, he was slightly regretful.

...I really want to take a look at someone's current taste in underwear.
