Ordinary people can also be the protagonist in a comic strip

One o'clock.

The bonfire was still burning because Lorraine was adding new firewood to it from time to time. The moon tonight seemed particularly bright, making the forest under the cover of night quite interesting.

Lorraine was always alert to everything around the camp.

in fact……

The reason why he chose to keep watch all night, besides the habit he had developed in the past, was more important, which he did not explain to Hanahashi Haruka and the others.

That was before he got on the tram today. I don’t know if his old suspicious habit had come back again.

He always had a strange feeling at that time...

The feeling of being secretly spied on somewhere!

Maybe this is a man’s sixth sense. He is not sure, but he will never let his guard down, because most of the time, his sixth sense is correct!

-

This information was not chosen to be told to Hanabishi Haruka and the others.

One is that Lorraine herself is not sure about the authenticity, and the second is that she doesn't want to make them worry unnecessarily, and hopes that they can focus all their energy on special training.

Staying up late is really harmful to your health.

Normally, this should not be done at all.

However, Lorraine, who had long been indifferent to death, no longer cared about this so-called harmful behavior.

-

Suddenly, in the silent night, there was some noise coming from the direction of the tent behind me.

Lorraine instantly grabbed the Benelli M1014 beside him, turned his head sharply, and looked in the direction where the sound came from with an alert posture ready to aim.

Look over there.

Only then did he let down his guard and smiled with relief.

Because the one who made the noise was not some enemy who attacked at night, but Hanabi Haruka who came out of the tent, rubbing her blurry eyes and wearing cute pink pajamas.

"Umm, Brother Lin..., are you really not asleep yet?"

After Hua Lingyao walked out of the tent, she walked towards Lorraine.

His confused eyes gradually became clearer.

Lorraine replied.

"Didn't I tell you that I would keep watch for you? Why are you running out in the middle of the night instead of sleeping in the tent? Are you here to keep me company?"

"Hehe, Brother Lin, if you ask me to accompany you, that's fine too."

"Haha..." Luo Lin laughed at first, but then suddenly became serious, "Go back to sleep, Comrade Xiaoyao."

"Okay, Brother Lin, don't be so anxious to chase them away."

"What do you want to do?"

"that……"

Hua Lingyao suddenly lowered her head and seemed to be hesitant to speak. There was a hint of girlish shyness in her evasive eyes.

Lorraine was confused.

"Don't hesitate, just say what you want to say."

"I, I..."

"You what?"

"I want to go to the toilet."

After hesitating for a long time, Hualing Haruka finally explained the real reason why she woke up in the middle of the night.

Lorraine found it funny.

"Then just go ahead. You don't have to come here to report to me, right?"

"It's so dark outside at night. I... I'm a little scared."

"At least the camp is safe. I can assure you of that."

“There’s no toilet here.”

"Just find a bush and deal with it."

"Woo..."

"Why, don't be shy, the conditions in the wild are like this, otherwise I would have airdropped a fully furnished toilet for you right here."

"that……"

Hua Lingyao knew that this was impossible, and she was not obsessed with it. After thinking for a while, she mustered up the courage to say, "Brother Lin, can you go with me?"

"what???"

Lorraine didn't react for a while.

Hua Ling Haruka blushed immediately and spoke quickly.

"Ah, no, what I mean is... if Brother Lin could go with me, I would feel more at ease. If I go alone, I will always feel a little uneasy."

"So this is ah."

"So that... is that okay?"

Hua Lingyao looked at him in a pleading manner. Her pitiful appearance made Luo Lin reluctant to refuse her. He could only say, "Okay, okay. Oh, oh, there's nothing I can do about you."

Seeing that the other party really agreed.

Hualing Haruka was extremely happy.

"Thank you, Brother Lin! I knew that Brother Lin was the best to me."

-

Subsequently.

Accompanied by Lorraine, the two came to a relatively marginal place on the campsite, next to a relatively large rock.

Lorraine said proactively.

"Okay, this should be enough. Just go to the bathroom here. I'll keep an eye on you."

"Eh!?"

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Lorraine asked.

Hua Lingyao's face was red, as if she had heard something very unbelievable. She was very flustered and flustered. "Brother Lin, can you please watch me carefully? ..., I, I, I..., I have never been watched by a boy when doing this kind of thing. Don't you think it's dirty?"

"what?"

What on earth is this girl talking about?

Lorraine was confused.

Hua Ling Haruka was still talking to herself, her voice confused.

"Originally, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed, but but but...but if Brother Lin insists on doing that, I did promise to do anything for you, Brother Lin. If you don't dislike me afterwards, I can..."

"Uh, stop, stop! Oh my God, Xiaoyao, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word you say?"

"Ah, I, I, I... I don't even know what I was saying! Um, it's all because of you, Brother Lin, you suddenly said those super bold words just now, and you made me confused."

"Okay, okay, it's late, I won't argue with you, just go to the bathroom and I'll stand by, just relax."

"what?"

Didn’t you say you would keep an eye on her?

Hua Lingyao didn't react for a moment, until Lorraine took the initiative to walk to the other side of the rock and leaned against the rock with a gun. She finally reacted and realized that what the other party said just now, "I will watch her well", meant that he would protect her well.

In fact, it was completely her own fault that she misunderstood.

After realizing this, Hanabishi Haruka was so ashamed that she almost wanted to commit suicide.

-

But just when Hualing Haruka was going to the bathroom, when she was most relaxed, a strange rustling sound suddenly came from beside her.

When she turned her head and looked down, she saw a snake-like creature in the darkness, twisting towards her.

"Ahhhhhh!!!"

A shrill scream, accompanied by the girl's panic.

Lorraine was so frightened that she almost fainted.

"What the hell, what happened!"

"Brother Lin, help me, there's a snake!!!"

Lorraine had just turned around and taken two steps.

Hua Lingyao didn't even have time to pick up her clothes before she stumbled out. When she saw Luo Lin, she pounced into his arms, screaming, holding him tightly with one hand and pointing in the direction with the other, speaking incoherently, "Brother Lin, over there... over there... snake! Snake! Snake!!!"

Lorraine took a look and found that there really was a small snake, a non-venomous one.

He was almost scared to death, thinking something strange had happened.

"Xiaoyao, calm down."

"Brother Lin, help! Get rid of it quickly. I was almost bitten by it just now."

"Compared to this, you have other more important things to do, right?"

"Hurry up and chase it away. I shouldn't have been bitten, right? No, right? No, right???"

Compared to Hanabishi Haruka who was so excited that she couldn't calm down at all.

Lorraine didn't say anything more.

But in front of the other person, in silence, he first held the other person down, and then personally helped the other person to pull up the clothes that he had not put on just now, and took the initiative to turn his face away.

"Eh?"

Until now.

Hualing Haruka finally reacted. She seemed to have been so focused on the snake that she didn't even notice that she ran out without putting on her clothes.

Now Lorraine helped her put it on.

Coupled with the other party's usual considerate smile, and the final action of putting his arm around her shoulder, patting her, and comforting her.

Hua Ling Haruka's fair and pretty face suddenly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She covered her face with her hands. At this moment, she really wanted to commit suicide on the spot.

Surprisingly, she didn't scream or show any signs of confusion.

I just stood there with my hands covering my face, silent and extremely embarrassed.

At last.

It was Lorraine who took the initiative to speak.

"After you've finished using the bathroom, it's time to go back to bed."

Hualing Haruka said nothing, but just nodded silently.

Lorraine patted her head to comfort her.

-

But just as he turned around and was about to go back to the campfire and continue standing guard, Hua Lingyao suddenly reached out and pinched the corner of his clothes.

"Xiaoyao?"

"Just now..., Brother Lin saw all those shy parts of mine, right?"

"What did you see? I sat by the campfire the whole night, concentrating on standing guard. I didn't go anywhere."

"But……"

"No matter who asks me, I give the same answer. No one sees it anyway."

"Brother Lin..."

Understood.

Hua Lingyao understood everything, and her eyes were filled with gratitude. "Thank you, Brother Lin."

"Let's go back."

"Ah."
