[Comprehensive] I'm really a bug

It was Kuroro who first discovered that Linde could not speak.

He said he found it, but he noticed it when he was still in the wine cellar, and immediately stretched out his hand, Linde subconsciously hid.

But she then squeezed Kuroro's wrist tightly, pulling him to turn his palm.

Kuroro let her cool fingertips slide across his palm, and a strange touch spread in his hand.

"Could it never change back?"

Kuroro repeated in a low voice, his expression seemed to be thinking, but he didn't show any hesitation. He put his fingertips on the girl's neck and rubbed it lightly. When his fingertips touched the cool skin, the heat rushed over.

Linde started to flinch, but eventually she calmed down submissively.

"There is indeed a unique power of thought in it." Kuroro looked down at the girl in front of him, and he could see the undisguised trust and clarity at a glance. What he wanted to say changed invisibly, and in the end he just comforted him, "Don't be afraid ,It's fine."

"?"

Linde asked silently with her eyes——and then.

"That can only be untied by the other party." Kuroro withdrew his hand, but the look of ease did not last long. When he saw the expression on the girl's face, he paused.

But the body has been involuntarily relaxed, accepting the girl's punch that can be called shameless.

Not heavy.

There is no strength.

The resentment and anger on the girl's face suddenly become more vivid from time to time is more important, her eyes are shining brightly, which is completely different from the dazzling appearance when she is calm.

At this moment, the knight standing at the exit raised his voice and shouted, "Is Linde alright?"

"Ah, it's probably all right!" Wojin, who was standing outside the narrow door, replied with a higher voice. The voice announced, "That girl is acting like a baby in the arms of the leader!"

Linde: "..."

But at this time, the chivalrous man still came with a laughing voice: "Oh, that's it. Then let the leader take Linde out, we have other things to do."

Linde: "..."

Wo Jin responded happily, turned his head and shouted in this direction: "Leader, take this girl away! Go out and get tired!"

Linde: "..."

She immediately withdrew her hand, moved away from Kuroro, turned around and walked straight out.

This meaningful action to avoid suspicion seems to be worth 300 taels here.

So Wo Jin showed that kind of teasing and suggestive smile, the so-called "men can understand" smile, and did not forget to add the last sentence:

"Haha, why are you ashamed?"

What responded to him was the girl's unintimidating resentful glance, and the slender figure of her back who was in a hurry to accelerate and was almost unstable, showing a somewhat desperate and panicked state.

Wojin suddenly burst out laughing.

The knight picked her up at the exit, saw her appearance at the moment, and was unavoidably stunned: "Oh~ is this the disguise technique used to beat the enemy Hakka? It looks flawless even from a close look."

Linde put his hand on the knight's palm, and the latter suggested with great interest: "Linde, let me study it closely later, maybe there will be some surprises."

The girl stared at him rather speechlessly, Kuroro and Wojin came up later, the knight immediately changed the mode of teasing, and asked seriously: "Shall we go to Pike's place now?"

"Yeah." Kuroro nodded, came over and naturally took over Linde, his eyes fixed on her face for two seconds that could not be ignored.

Linde blinked, and wrote gently on the back of his hand: [Is it ugly?]

Kuroro smiled slightly, and raised his hand to touch her head. The girl fell obediently in his arms, relying on softness: "No."

Just not as pleasing to the eye as before.

……

On the way, Linde had the time to piece together what happened in the past few days from the mouth of the knight.

"I received the news from Pike before, but I didn't expect to be stopped by someone on the way to check." The knight spread his hands helplessly, "Traps and ambushes are nothing, but when I went back, I found that you were robbed. According to Miss Kagome's The description, we guess it was written by Ilmi Beaten, that Inuyasha originally wanted to help find it, but the distance he can smell is limited, your...well, the smell also disappears quickly, it seems that Il Mi·Beating Dike is taking you on a non-stop journey, right?"

Linde nodded silently, and then showed a puzzled look—then how did they find themselves?

According to the firm attitude of Yiermi before, it should not be the letter from Maqi and Feitanbao.

The knight saw her question and said with a smile: "If the leader hadn't sensed your position, it is true that he would not have been able to find you in such a short period of time."

can feel it?

...The earlier worries were indeed true.

Linde listened quietly, and the knight continued: "I just received a message from Maggie and Feitan that they are going to the vanishing point of Pike's signal first. Of course, we are going there now."

'What's wrong with Parker? '

"Her, this is... originally meant to deal with personal matters, but in the end it sent out such a distress signal. Although we have always been non-interfering in each other's private life, but with this signal, it's another matter. "

First, he breathed out unconsciously. The knight didn't seem to want to tell her bluntly at first, but he didn't pause for a long time, and he quickly gave an answer.

The small gap in the middle may not be a big deal to other people, but for Linde who has been in an abnormal life after waking up, supplemented by superior insight and carefulness in things, this can also be sensitively detected.

Even if it was a message of acceptance, it didn't make Linde very happy when it was conveyed.

She's not in a high mood, that's palpable.

Kuroro lent a shoulder and let the girl cuddle up to her. After the chivalrous man finished talking, he suddenly asked about getting along with Yi Ermi these days.

It didn't take long for Linde's slack nerves to relax. Just when she was sleepy, she replied in a daze after hearing the words, but she didn't make a sound. She simply pulled Kuroro's fingers and wrote on her palm slowly.

"It turned out that my younger brother left temporarily after being captured." After the girl's somewhat lengthy 'narration' ended, Kuroro commented lightly, "It saved a lot of trouble."

What this "trouble" refers to is naturally self-evident.

"The bid is 15 billion..." Kuroro tapped his fingers on his knee, thoughtfully, "Who could it be?"

Linde was so sleepy, but insisted on displaying her characteristic that she was not good at joking at this time, she wrote in the palm of Kuroro——

[rich man]

Kurolo: "..."

The spring-like smile on his lips froze unnaturally for a moment, and his tone was gentle: "Oh, it's really hard for you to think of such important information."

Linde: "..."

Oh.

The girl curled her lips and turned her face away, making it clear that she didn't want to continue.

It looks more like it has a tendency to bury itself in the opponent's chest.

In such an atmosphere of being completely dependent on him, it seemed more like he had other intentions. Kuroro held the girl's limp hand with his backhand. Since the movements and expressions were so natural, no one noticed anything wrong.Even Linde, who was involved, just moved his index finger, and inadvertently swiped across the opponent's palm, and even unconsciously rubbed against the opponent's shoulder socket with a sleepy expression.

Before going to sleep, she thought vaguely: So, Kuroro came to find her first...

It was not so bright, and could even be labeled as despicable by the girl herself. With such inexplicable emotions, Linde fell into a deep sleep under relaxation.

***

This time, it was not a dream, and it was hard to tell whether it was regret or something else. When Linde woke up, she was facing the last tracking point.

In the red-light district of the bustling city, the colorful neon lights are changing and fascinating people's eyes. The hustle and bustle and entertainment separate another world. From time to time, girls on the street will throw eyebrows at the men here.

It is said that Pike's final signal was sent here, and has not been heard from since.

Linde jumped from Kuroro's arms, and the movement attracted the attention of several people in front of her.

Madge and Feitan are also on this list—these two are said to have finished their "temporary jobs" respectively, met her by accident, and returned to the organization decisively before Kuroro called.

Fei Tan was looking at her with a frown at the moment, and after a long while, said: "It's so ugly."

Probably because he woke up, and his mental state has improved a lot. Although Linde can't speak, he is still acting like a bully at this moment—or rather, he is trying to defend himself with reason.

'Not ugly! '

Fei Tan quickly turned around her face with a dark look, and said coldly: "Ugly."

'Not ugly! '

"Ugly."

'Not ugly! '

"It's ugly."

'Not ugly! '

Linde was clearly afraid of Feitan before, but now he can fight back with more confidence. Fortunately, Feitan didn't seem to really want to compete with her, so he stopped talking after Kuroro spoke.

——Although judging from the unwilling and dangerous expression, the previous conclusion obviously needs to be considered.

The knight went straight to the point: "March, you have searched the area, haven't you found any trace of Pike?"

"I didn't find anything." March replied calmly, "I didn't ask any relevant clues."

After saying this, she frowned and hesitated slowly: "I think... this matter is not as simple as it seems."

Kuroro looked at her: "For example?"

"For example... this distress signal was not sent by Pike himself." March pursed his lips. "Of course, this is my sudden feeling, and it cannot be regarded as conclusive evidence."

The knight added: "But Ma Qi, your intuition is always accurate, isn't it?"

"If it wasn't sent by Pike himself, could it be that he wanted to lure us all here?" Kuroro rested his knuckles on his lips and lowered his eyes, thinking, "But since this signal can be sent, it means that Pike has been completely controlled by the other party. and……"

And quite possibly, dead.
