The Cha Corps used the previous building as a material storage point, and the strong castle in front of them was their temporary headquarters during the exploration of the outer wall.

The Corps chose the basement of the castle as their foothold, and they could walk all the way outside the castle along the drainage system. All the entrances to the underground in the building were blocked, and it was not easy for the giants to enter the basement.Zoya, who was brought back, was locked in the room used to detain prisoners.

"Four years have passed!?"

"how can that be!"

Zoya spread her hands and questioned loudly, but no matter how much she doubted, the expressions of the group in front of her didn't look like she was joking, but she herself looked like a deranged lunatic.

This state lasted for a while before Zoya gradually calmed down. She lowered her voice and carefully observed the people in the house. Since it was the basement, candles were lit in the house, and there was a half-bright light. I saw clearly that the short-haired woman who greeted her at the beginning was looking at her with sympathetic eyes, the tall man next to her pursed her lips with an arrogant expression on her face, and the two men behind them looked serious, sitting The one in the middle is Captain Levi, who saved her. He still looks like he has nothing to do with himself, and from the inside, he looks even shorter than the previous impression - a bit shorter.

"Have you shouted enough?"

The two legs were turned upside down, and Levi asked coldly, "Why did you appear outside the wall?"

"..."

Zoya was very worried about Levi's failure to save Hansen before. In fact, she knew in her heart that Hansen's injury was beyond cure, but his eyes for help were vivid in her eyes, like countless invisible blades It hurts my heart.

Zoya deliberately kept her mouth shut for a long time to protest. Seeing the gentle woman try to lean over, she comforted her calmly: "We didn't handcuff you because we thought you were a bad person. You don't have to think too much."

"My name is Petra Lalu, and I'm a member of the Survey Corps."

As a friendly expression, Petra introduced the people present to Zoya.The man with the arrogant face is Oluo Borchardt, the one with the yellow hair and straight face is Elder Qin, and the man with the dark brown hair and straight face is Gunda Schulz, and then they are their leaders Captain Levi, everyone waited for Zoya to speak after all the introductions.

Clearing her throat, Zoya tried her best not to appear so flustered: "My name is Zoya Andreevna Balalaika."

……

The arrogant Oluou raised his eyebrows: "What a rare surname."

"En." Zoya replied, "It is said that our ancestors once lived in the northern part of the continent, where the days are short and the nights are long, and it is covered with ice and snow all year round."

"These are not important, you just need to explain why you are in the wild." Captain Levi dragged his jaw, bringing the problem back on track with a disdainful attitude.

Zoya took a deep breath, put one hand on her chest, and pursed her lips: "I swear, everything I said is true, guaranteed in the name of my deceased parents, and witnessed by my ancestors."

"My memory only goes to 845, after the giant broke through the Wall of Maria, the nightmare came to our town [Pitley], and I..."

Zoya sucked in the air and continued: "I don't know what to say...but I died in the attack at that time."

"..."

"..."

The people listening below didn't show much emotional reaction, they just looked at each other.

"You mean, you were dead at that time? Killed by a giant?" Petra covered her mouth.

Oluou came to the front and frowned: "Is there anything more absurd than returning to life? You said you ended up in the small town of [Pitley], which is nearly a day away from here as far as I know.

"What she needs is a doctor. I'm afraid this girl is frightened by giants."

"Oluo!" Petra stopped him from continuing.

……

Alas, it was treated as insanity again. She clearly swore to her deceased relatives. These people wanted to listen to the statement, but in the end they didn't believe it. This made Zoya feel unhappy, and she didn't want to talk to this man again.

Elder, the blond man who had been silent at the back, also spoke: "Whether what you said is true or not, she did appear in the wild. Now there are giants inside the outer wall, and she survived."

"I want to ask you, the town you live in had time to evacuate, why you were still attacked by giants."

"That's because..." Zoya lowered her head and clenched her thighs involuntarily. The sensation of her legs made her feel the joy of a healthy person again.Sometimes it takes a lifetime of thinking to make a decision, and sometimes the decision is only a moment. After the moment, Zoya decided to selectively avoid part of the information.

"My parents died in an accident and I lived with my uncle's family. I had a leg injury and couldn't escape with them, so I stayed."

"Oh, I'm sorry." Elder turned his head and said nothing. Anyone who experienced the catastrophe 4 years ago understands that many old people and sick people were cruelly left outside the wall for this reason. They were abandoned. By.

Suddenly Zoya's eyes lit up, she thought of her uncle's family, if she returned to the city, she would be able to find them!I actually forgot before, what is more important than being able to see my loved ones again!Besides, Zoya also felt that staying with the Survey Corps was the wisest choice right now.

"My uncle's family fled inside Rose's Wall. Maybe you can help me find them."

Zoya begged the members of the Corps with great joy, but everyone seemed not to be infected by her joy.Oluou curled his lips and said, "Those refugees, it's hard to find them now."

"Okay, let's talk about these things after we get back to the wall." Levi forcefully ended the topic.

In the second year after the giant invaded the wall, humans launched a war to retake the territory, and most of the refugees on the outer wall were exiled into the army. They have nothing left but sacrifices.The fundamental intention of the government to launch this war is to solve the problem of insufficient food and many people. It is the choice of those in power to ensure the interests of the vast majority of people. Therefore, in the hearts of many people, this bloody and cruel history is reasonable but not glorious.

Levi thinks that Zoya's origin is still unclear, so there is no need to say extra words, and he will investigate after returning to the wall. Therefore, among the people present, I am afraid that only Zoya, who was kept in the dark, naively thinks that returning to the city wall She will be able to find her relatives.

……

The cross-examination continued for a while, Levi stood up first and walked towards the door a little bored, followed by others, Zoya blinked, hey, what do these people mean.

"Well, wait a minute, what should I do?"

Levi stopped in front of the door, and he seemed to realize that there was a little Zoya who could breathe here, so he said in a neutral tone: "After the investigation is over, you come back to the wall with us."

Hearing that she had a chance to go back inside the wall, Zoya heaved a sigh of relief, but Levi didn't finish her sentence.

"From today onwards, you will be responsible for the sanitation and cleaning here. Do you want to clean it thoroughly? I will come to check."

"ah?"

"Cleaning?"

Levi seemed to think of something again when he stepped out the door, and he continued to add: "You don't need to wear handcuffs anymore."

"You're not a threat at all."

……

I don't know why, Zoya has a feeling of being deeply disgusted.

As an elite unit of human beings, the Survey Corps has exceptionally high execution efficiency. As soon as Levi finished assigning work, countless work orders were stuffed into Zoya's hands. Work, counting daily consumables, taking care of and feeding horses, asking her to mend some soldiers’ clothes if their buttons fell off, and the most outrageous thing is asking her to repair a pocket watch that has stopped. A pocket watch, this is too much!

The girl with black lines counted the work at hand. She recalled a tragic story she heard when she was a child. The plot was probably about a beautiful girl, seven ugly sisters and a short stepfather. The sisters united to bully this The young girl asked her to wash and cook every day, and she didn't know until the end that all of this was instigated by that short stepfather!This is a tragic family ethics drama with a suspenseful color, which caused a sensation in the wall at that time.Thinking of that heinous short stepfather, Captain Levi's voice and smile appeared in Zoya's mind...

Thinking of the fate that the short stepfather deserved at the end of the plot, Zoya was full of strength and worked very hard.

***********

Of course, Levi had a plan to let this girl of unknown origin stay in the barracks to do logistical work. On the one hand, he could monitor her movements at any time, so that he could report back when he met with the regiment leader in a few days; On the one hand, the Survey Corps is indeed short of manpower, and one more person means more strength.At first, Levi didn't really have any expectations for Zoya's work ability, but now, judging from the results alone, he thinks the effect is not bad.

Early in the morning, Levi saw that his subordinates were wearing neat uniforms. The corners, necklines, and cuffs of the clothes had been carefully cleaned, and bursts of soap smelled from the gaps in the fabric. This sight is really rare, Levi I feel like they've finally met their minimum standards!

"My button fell off, and I'm going to find the new girl to fix it in a while!" A soldier said happily.

"Your socks were broken yesterday, but today the buttons fell off again. You didn't do it on purpose, did you?" Another soldier teased him.
