"Before you say anything, let me state that he is mine."

Lu Ji went to pull his hand, but his fat and tender fingers had no strength at all, so he gave up after a few pulls, glared at him and said, "I wouldn't have told you if it wasn't for nothing!"

Ryan rubbed his panda's head: "Say."

His tone was flat, but Lu Ji was trembling in his heart. He originally wanted to be more imposing, but now he was photographed by the arrogance, and turned into a low-qi question: "Let me tell you, Brother Luka is not awakened because of lack of ability. It's so late, don't think that you are great just because you are the chief, if you want me to say that you are not qualified to be Brother Luca's sentry."

"Oh, then who do you think is qualified?"

"Of course it's me!" Lu Ji said shyly.

"..." Ryan didn't intend to argue with him. The kid's brother-in-law complex is already at an advanced stage. "Do you know the reason why your brother wakes up late? Didn't you die very early?"

"You're so rude!" Lu Ji choked on him, his little face flushed with anger, "Brother Luka had already awakened when I was sick! He's awakened since he was seven years old!"

Yes, he showed signs of awakening more than ten years ago.

I don't know if it was a side effect of the binding, but Luca's originally vague memory gradually became clear.As more and more recovered, the stabbing pain in his brain turned into a dull pain, hitting his blood vessels one after another.

When the pain subsided, Luca lay on the bed in a daze, with a blank expression and dry eyes.

During that awakening, his awakening reaction was very unstable, sometimes he would be in a trance, affected by emotions from nowhere, and he would speak words that no one could understand. strange behavior.

It stands to reason that he should be sent to the guide school early in such a situation.But his parents made a decision that changed his life.

Those few years were the crazy period when the Allies and the Empire tore up the peace agreement. Seeing that the war was about to break out, they themselves, as the sentinels and guides of the military, had to dedicate their lives to the country as a matter of course, but the child was awakened at such a young age. Once sent to the Guidance Academy, they will definitely not be able to escape the fate of going to the battlefield.

During that time, the military was blindly expanding its troops, and the demand for sentries and guides was particularly large. Although it was still talking about voluntary service, in fact, the children of the Sentinel Academy and the Guide Academy were carrying out brainwashing militaristic education and strict military training. In addition to military training, many underage sentries and guides were forced to bind and sent to the battlefield.

The Yujiali couple didn't want their child to go on such a path, they wanted to prevent Luca from awakening.

So they secretly contacted the "Spatch" medical institution.

The first-generation awakening blocker was severely investigated by the military as soon as it came out. After many twists and turns, they purchased a reagent and signed a confidentiality agreement with Spike.However, before they were about to use this reagent on Luca, an accident happened that caught everyone off guard.

"I'm not in good health, and I always have a fever. That day my illness was almost cured, and it's rare that I'm in good health and spirit. Mom and Dad took us to go fishing for vacation." Lu Ji sat on the climbing frame, dangling two short short legs. leg.

"Yeah." Ryan listened quietly.

"You don't know, brother Luca is amazing. At that time, he was able to judge which waters had fat and big fish, and it was best to take the bait based on the thoughts of other people by the lake. But after he told his father, Dad gave him a scolding and said it hurt his nerves and gave him a headache."

"Yeah." If only he could have known him at that time, Ryan thought to himself, Luca must have been very cute when he was a child.

Wait, Luka awakened at the age of seven, and Lu Ji was three years old at that time, that is to say, his age is actually about the same as Lu Ji?

Ryan glanced at Xiaodouding in front of him, and immediately dismissed the idea.No, even if they are of the same age, there are great differences between people. At least he would never wear a panda onesie when he was a child.

Lu Ji said to himself: "Brother Luka had a quarrel with Dad, and he probably felt a little wronged, so he sat far away and sulked. I want to play with him, so I went to him, brother and I Said, I like him the most, and I will be his sentry in the future, and I will protect him well, so as not to give him a headache."

Ryan said bluntly: "Hmph, it's up to you."

Lu Ji shivered. Although he was unwilling, brother Luka teased him like this at the time: "In short, because I am lively and cute, brother Luka was amused by me. He told me that I often get sick and he is very sick. Don't worry, when I'm in great shape, let me be his sentinel."

Ryan's face darkened suddenly: "He coaxed you to play."

"It's not coaxing me!"

"Just to coax you."

"no!"

Ryan realized that his IQ would be lowered by this toddler, and said in a sharp voice: "You can't do it. If you want to be his sentry, first of all, you have to be a sentry."

Lu Ji jumped out three words confidently: "I am!"

In Luka's original memory, Lu Ji simply fell ill and died.

The younger brother's health has always been poor, and he has a fever and sickness every now and then. It has become a habit for him to take care of his younger brother.

Lu Ji was very clingy to him. His parents refused to drink the medicine, but he drank it immediately after coaxing him a few times. He also liked to sleep next to him at night, holding his fingers with his little hands and refusing to lose them. His saliva flowed all over his pillow Yes, Lu Ji likes to wear the red panda jumpsuit the most, because that's what he wore when he was a child.

Before that fishing vacation, Lu Ji had a fever again, but fortunately it was not serious, and his family didn't pay much attention to it. They gave him medicine according to the doctor's prescription, and he recovered after two days.

But in fact, that Lu Ji was not an ordinary illness, it was a sign of his awakening.

Parents didn't know about Lu Ji's situation at the time, and they only prepared one awakening blocker.

I don't know if Lu Ji realized something, ran over waddlingly, and said to him coquettishly: "Brother Luka, I like you the most, and I will be your sentinel in the future."

He had just been scolded by his father, and he said perfunctorily: "Ah, you want to be my sentry? With your small body, whether you can wake up is a problem, right? I don't worry, wait until you are in good shape. "

Lu Ji was not convinced: "I am in good health now, and I have not been panting after walking so far this year."

He casually joked: "Really? Why didn't I see it? If you can bring up as many fish as Dad did, I believe you will be fine."

"How many are so many?"

"Well, ten."

It was a completely unintentional sentence, never thought about it, but Lu Ji firmly remembered it in his heart.In other words, he didn't remember it on purpose, but when Luca said these words, he uncontrollably added psychological hints.

Luka's ability is very strong, but he didn't know how to limit or use it at that time, and Luji was too young at that time, so he carried out his brother's "order" without hesitation.

It was early winter, and a thin layer of ice had formed on the lake. When the parents found Lu Ji, the child was frozen stiff with two small fish in his hands.

For a Sentinel who was awakening, the lake was more icy cold than ordinary people felt.

As a result, Lu Ji fell seriously ill, and when he was in a daze from the fever, he still said that he would be his brother's sentry.

Only then did Mom and Dad know that Lu Ji was also awakening.

It was like a curse. In that year, the two children of the Yugali family were about to awaken, Luca was about to awaken as a guide, and Luji, who was only three years old, would be a sentinel.

Lu Ji failed to survive that serious illness, and the concurrent inflammation brought him great pain.

When he finally left, his mother changed Lu Ji into his favorite jumpsuit, and he felt that Lu Ji's grip on his fingers gradually loosened.

Parents didn't blame him, they only blamed themselves for not taking good care of the two children.

Later, he took the awakening blocker, and he forgot about it, and his parents didn't bring it up again.

"Maybe my brother felt very guilty towards me subconsciously, and I became his spiritual body." Lu Ji said, "I didn't tell him that my ability is to invalidate the sentry's five senses."

Ryan hummed: "It turns out that you are not a waste."

He noticed it when he was in the Lake of Blue Prayer, the sentinel he expelled couldn't feel where Luca was, and if it didn't resonate so strongly, he probably wouldn't feel it either.

It is undeniable that Lu Ji is also protecting Luka in his own way, but this way is called "If I can't eat it, I don't want to eat it."

Lu Ji groaned and said, "I don't want Brother Luka to belong to another person, but I'm like this, and you are like that again, and I can't help it."

"It's good that you know." Ryan flicked his forehead, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with bullying children.

"Aww!" Lu Ji covered his head and cried out in pain.

"He thinks about it now?" Knowing that Luca's slow combination fever was probably due to the effect of the medicine, Ryan hated that blocker, but he knew that it was also the medicine that suppressed the road. Card so many years of suffering.

"Well, I seem to remember." Lu Ji frowned worriedly, "Brother Luka looks very uncomfortable, I secretly came to tell you while he was asleep."

"Secretly?" Ryan snorted, "He deliberately let you come to me."

"Hey?"

"You're really just a piece of trash."

"..." Lu Ji defended himself in a low voice, "Can I still be cute..."

Back in the room, Lu Ji saw that his brother was waiting for them with his eyes open, and he didn't care about his face, so he climbed onto the bed with two short legs, and hugged him affectionately and acted like a baby: "Brother Luka..."

Luka patted him on the back, thinking of what happened back then, there was a trace of pain in his eyes.

Ryan coughed: "Norton."

The next moment, the black panther jumped onto the bed, picked up Lu Ji and ran out.

"Silly leopard, let me down! I bit you!"

"..."

Ryan went to bed, hugged Luca who had just been startled by Norton, and the reflex arc hadn't finished running, kissed his eyes twice, and forced him to close his eyelids: "Sleep."

There is an indescribable tacit understanding between the two after they are bound.Ryan didn't say anything, but Luca felt his intentional reassurance.

Ryan caged him in a barrier of perception.

Luca couldn't hear any noisy sounds from the outside world, and the pictures in his memory no longer flashed before his eyes.

All he could perceive was Ryan's steady breathing and strong heartbeat.

This is probably what Gacy said, the sense of security provided by the sentinel to the guide?

"That, Ryan..." Luca called softly.

"Huh?" Ryan responded in a low voice.

"Why don't you wear underwear?"

"..."
