[Comprehensive Manga] time and time

The establishment of the Self-Defense Forces can be said to be a matter of course.

With the help of G, Kozart, and the people who have long been dissatisfied with the dark forces, the self-defense force has developed extremely smoothly.

The self-defense force had only a few people at the beginning, but as their actions increased, they gradually became famous. There are many people who want to change this era, so more people who have the same idea as Giotto stepped forward, and then the team formed. Getting stronger and stronger.

At first it was just a small spot, and gradually it spread like ink on rice paper, just add a little water, and it spread into a piece.

Compared with the current Giotto, although he started to do some dangerous things, in fact it is very difficult for him to encounter danger.

Giotto is very smart. His actions at the beginning were not big. He just fought against some low-level street bullies.

The most important thing is that Giotto always avoids danger with super intuition.

His own skills are not bad, and his face is actually very deceptive, which also makes his movements a lot easier.

Moreover, vongola itself has a certain power, even if he really offends some small nobles, the other party will not have the guts to seek revenge.

But Giotto is the leader after all, and soon some people remembered his appearance.

Giotto got a little busy.

During the first month of Xi's arrival, Giotto was within her sight most of the time, even reading books with her for an afternoon.And now she can see Giotto less time, although he will always spare some time to accompany her, but will soon leave because of other things, except for the meeting that must come back to rest every night , They even communicated less and less.

Giotto's face sometimes shows some obvious tiredness, and all she can do is pass a cup of tea.

She didn't understand such things as organizing and winning people over, and Xi even felt that she was occupying Giotto's time.

What is negative in Italy now is not only the lowly gangsters on the streets, but also organizations with purpose, and even dark forces supported by the nobles.

If he wants to fight against a larger force, he needs more help. At this time, the help given by the general public is minimal.

What he needs is someone who has a certain status and works with him.

With these, Xi couldn't help much.

She lowered her eyes slightly, staring at the bouquet of red roses by the window of the room in a daze.Roses without roots naturally cannot grow for a long time, but Giotto will replace them with new ones when they are about to wither.

Franco has passed away, so the flowers will naturally not come from him. Even she is curious about where the flowers come from, and she also feels Giotto's intentions from Zhongxi.

Rose petals wrapped around her fingertips, and the bright red contrasted sharply with her white fingertips.

Her complexion was too pale, and she couldn't even see a trace of rosiness.

In the world of Final Fantasy, because of the experiment, she has blue eyes and silver hair, and her skin is very white because she rarely exposes to sunlight, but she doesn't look sick.

But Xi's current body is truly sick.

It was the same as the body that was entangled with illness in the previous world, except that although this body was not sick, it was extremely weak.

So she quickly judged that she might not be able to survive for too long in this world.

That's why Giotto indulged her to stay in the house often. If she didn't have the power brought by the previous worlds, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to go for a long time.

But for Xi, there was actually a feeling of relief.

That way she didn't have to bother Giotto for too long.

Since it is impossible to give, then it is better to leave early.

Xi didn't know how long she had been staring at Qiangwei in a daze, until she felt a pang of hunger before she looked back and went downstairs.

There was bread prepared by Giotto downstairs, and Xi opened the kitchen cabinet, only to find that the box containing the icing was empty.

Bread is the most eaten in the West, and Xi’s favorite is the bread sprinkled with icing sugar, which is so sweet that it seems to be able to feel a sense of happiness.

So she was a little disappointed that there was no frosting. After thinking about it, she decided to buy it.

Anything can happen, so Giotto specially prepared money for her, and Xi and Giotto went shopping together, so the route was naturally memorized.

She walked out the door and walked towards her destination.It's not far away, but it's not very close, and it's in an extremely prosperous place.

Xi bought the icing, held it in her hand and walked back.Then she realized that someone was following her, and almost instantly, she knew why the other party came.

Xi wore a long sky blue dress when she went out. The fabric was exquisite, so she looked like a nobleman.

Those who will follow her will naturally not be these low-level punks.

So she turned around and walked into an extremely remote alley that was close to the house.

Then, after she hadn't taken a few steps, the cold metal pressed against her head.

"If you don't want to die, keep quiet." The man's voice was fierce, and the threat sounded quite imposing.

Xi's body trembled slightly, obediently making no sound.

"Follow me," the man said, leading her through the alleys, and then walked into a slightly dilapidated warehouse.

It was a little dark inside, but the damaged part of the wall was illuminated by sunlight, and Xi's eyesight was not weak, so he quickly saw the structure inside.

This is probably a hideout of some dark force, and there are a lot of people sitting here and there.

These people are all wearing common people's clothes, and their dressing styles are almost the same, but among them, one person's dressing looks much more expensive.

"Bump—" The man who escorted her in behind her kicked her leg unceremoniously. Xi almost knelt down on the ground subconsciously. A piece of white.

"Is this Giotto's woman?" She heard a voice from above her head, and saw the well-dressed man walking in front of her.

"It can't be wrong. I saw her walking with him with my own eyes."

"He looks quite pretty, it seems that the boy is doing well."

Xi's jaw was clenched, and she forced her head up to look at the person in front of her.

"Has the letter been delivered?" Although he was talking, his eyes were looking up and down Xie, and after he got a positive answer, he chuckled lightly.

"If he comes, it will prove that this woman is really important to him, then I will let him come and go. I want him to know that my Bellino family is not so easy to deal with."

Is that...is he the one Giotto is dealing with now?

Xi quietly looked at the man in front of him, and his fingertips trembled slightly.

It may be that her superficial appearance is too deceptive, and her long skirt is so simple that it can be seen at a glance whether she has a weapon on her body, so that the man who brought her didn't even tie her hands.

This is the second time, right?Threatened as a hostage or something...

But now she will not become anyone's weakness, nor will she become anyone's bargaining chip.

She is no longer the girl she was without any power.

"The leader...is that you?" She said, her voice was cold.

"En?" The other party seemed surprised that she would speak, but answered her question, "Of course the leader is my uncle."

"Really? That's good." She said, her eyes were already covered by Geass, and the man on the opposite side just swayed, then fell straight towards her according to the inertia, and then fell to the ground with a bang.

What happened in front of him stunned the man standing behind Xi. The sense of crisis made him subconsciously pull the trigger in his hand, but Xi had already disappeared from his sight. Then he felt a pain in his wrist, and after subconsciously letting go, the bullet pierced through The feeling through the head was clearly transmitted to the brain, and then there was no feeling.

Xi held a pistol with a slightly heavy texture in her hand, but she felt unusually kind. It had long been her most convenient weapon.

The people sitting around stood up and took out their pistols one after another, and the continuous sound brought a lot of movement.

Bullets grazed the earphones and hair, but none of them landed on her body. While dodging the bullets, she also pulled the trigger in her hand, 100% hit, even double kills with one shot!

She was also... Special Forces!

Not weak.

And this is just the not powerful third-rate family that Giotto encountered in the early stage.

She saw fear in the eyes of the enemy, and she never thought that one day someone would show her such an expression.

She raised the corners of her mouth in self-deprecating manner, the next bullet was ready to go.

"bump--"

It wasn't the sound of bullets, but the few remaining enemies just fell down in front of her, and then she saw a familiar figure appearing in front of her.

Giotto didn't have a weapon in his hand, and just shuttled between the enemies a few times, and knocked everyone down.

When Xi saw the flames burning above Giotto's head, she was slightly taken aback.

This was the first time she saw Giotto enter the death mode, the sharp feeling between the eyes made her a little strange, but it was more dazzling than usual.

This is the dazzling "light" that Tsunayoshi Sawada could emit when he was young.

That is what becomes the color of the sky.

"Axi" Giotto's voice was a little more cold, and his tone was still gentle, but Xi could hear an unidentified emotion from it.

Giotto walked forward slowly, and Xi almost subconsciously wanted to back away, but something behind her caught her footsteps, and when her legs gave way, she suddenly fell down and sat down.

An arm wrapped around her waist, stabilizing her wobbly figure.Xi raised his head and met the other's eyes.

Giotto didn't speak any more, just closed his eyes, the flame on his forehead dissipated, and he returned to his original appearance.

- He saw it.

Even though he may know that she once destroyed a den and saw her covered in blood, he has never seen her when she actually killed someone.

But she didn't feel scared, she knew that the other party would not alienate her because of these, because they might be the same.

In fact, anyone who can be a mafia leader is not a good stubble.

After all, his tenderness is only for those around him.

What she really cares about is...you have seen my strength, so can you let me do something for you?

"Let's go back." The other party seemed to ignore the inquiry in her eyes, and said to her.

Hillary was a little disappointed, but nodded obediently.

The journey back was not far, but Xi felt that he had walked for a long time, because Giotto didn't speak a word along the way, but just walked ahead, the distance was neither close nor far.

When he returned to the house, there was still no one there, but when he entered, Giotto gave in slightly and let Xi go in first.

—then she saw the icing on the table.

It was obviously just bought back.

Turns out he knew the icing was gone.

She turned her head and suddenly looked at the young man behind her.

Giotto's eyes met hers, and he stepped forward, wrapping his arms around her shoulders and letting her sit on the chair.

Then Giotto squatted down in front of her and gently took her palm.

His posture was a little close, no longer making Xi look up at him, but he lowered his posture and looked up at her.

"You didn't have to do that."

One sentence has a negative connotation, making Xi's fingertips stiff.

Giotto knew she had entered that den on purpose, to face the enemies alone.But he didn't agree. Sure enough...does he not need her power?

Also... Even without her, vongola has developed very smoothly.

It's because she thinks of herself too great, but in fact she is just superfluous.

Giotto paused, and said again, "I'm not denying you, it's just such a danger, just leave it to Axi to deal with it."

"If there's anything wrong, just tell me."

"I won't hide anything from you, just ask me if you want to know, and I will tell you."

"In contrast, I hope you can also tell me about your affairs."

"Okay?"

Every word of Giotto seemed to knock on her heart, opening his heart to her.She had heard that Italian men were good at talking about love, and felt the sincerity of the other man from Giotto's words.

But....

Xi looked into Giotto's eyes, her tightly pressed lips loosened slightly.

"Do you want... what?"

——You don't have to be so nice to me.

Giotto was taken aback by her words, and even his pupils shrank slightly.

"What, can I give you?" She asked softly, even with a little begging.

Giotto suddenly fell silent, he lowered his head, the bangs on his forehead covered his eyes, making it difficult to see clearly.

But soon Xi saw him look up again, his expression changed a little bit, the tenderness in his eyes remained unchanged, but there was more determination to make a certain decision.

"If you want something, there is."

What the other party said brought a little light to Xi's eyes. What she hoped for was that the other party could say what he wanted.

——she would do anything to help him get it.

"What is it?"

"That's—the treasure in front of you."

A smile suddenly appeared in Giotto's eyes, and he tightened his grip on Xi's hand slightly, but his eyes were fixed on her.

"Ah Xi, do you believe in love at first sight?" Xi stared blankly at the other party and continued talking.

"I always believed"

What I want most is you.

and so--

"Axi, are you willing to stay by my side and let me take care of you for the rest of your life?"

Xi felt that his mind was a little blank, and he couldn't understand the meaning of what the other party said for a while, but he felt sore in his slightly lowered eyes, as if something could fall in the next second.

There was an incredible feeling in Giotto's voice, and she actually noticed that the other party was a little nervous.

He was nervous about her answer.

"But...it's not worth it." There was a slight trill in her voice.

"How? For me, this is the person I want to protect all my life."

Giotto stood up, caressed her hair with warm palms, and gently pulled her into his arms, his voice rang in her ears.

"You are by my side is the best reward for me."

Xi's palm grabbed his clothes, from cautious to tight.

She leaned her head against Giotto's shoulder, and soon she felt that his shoulder was wet by her, and the tears falling from her eyes were more violent than ever.

She can't help but want to rely on the other party, because she feels that she is needed and truly exists.

She may have been protected by many people, but she has never been told that she is needed.

So...

--I promise you.

------------------

I will be by your side until the end of this life.

The author has something to say:

【Confession】

----------

After thinking about it, I decided to add this paragraph to this chapter!

I originally wanted to update on the 29th, but it was delayed due to a lot of things. When I got home, it was past twelve o'clock, and I was a little excited when I saw Lei.

The number of words in this chapter has exploded, and the confession is just the beginning. Grandpa will transform with hope, at least it will make her no longer so humble.

This week's list is [-], and it will be updated with the list to encourage myself to apply next week. 【dog】

At first glance, it seems that it is past three o'clock, and I have to get up early tomorrow, so I have nothing to love.
