Riding horses and galloping on the vast Maria prairie, the expedition team outside the wall relied on close and tacit cooperation to avoid the giants ahead time and time again.The goal of this expedition is to establish a new base in a farther place to facilitate the advancement of the next search team.

And this time the head of the team will lead us to the final destination—the Forest of Giant Trees.That's right, it is the giant tree forest where Levi's regiment destroyed the Survey Corps in order to capture the giantess in the future!Thinking of these, I can't help feeling a little flustered.

Before departure, Squad Leader Nanaba explained to us the specifics of this expedition. Our primary goal is to establish a base in an abandoned town near the Forest of Giant Trees, survey the surrounding terrain and calculate the approximate activity range of giants, and then test Push forward the forest of giant trees, and finally bring the collected data back to the city wall for summary analysis.

The expedition outside the wall of the Survey Corps is not to fight the giants, but to search for newer information outside the wall and establish a new base.Just to get this precious information often cost the lives of many soldiers.Any action, no matter how careful it is, will always result in heavy casualties, because of the disparity in strength between humans and giants.

I followed Squad Leader Nanaba, who was in Class 10 on the left wing, and from the formation diagram, my class was relatively safe.Although the overall position is to the left, there are enemy hunting squads outside, and our squad is only responsible for standby or ordering.Even so, on this vast grassland, we have to tighten our hearts at all times.

And Leila, who was going to follow the expedition, had to stay inside the wall to wait due to her injury. When I thought of her injury, I felt a little uncomfortable, but I also thought that one less expedition would be one more guarantee of life. I don't know whether it is joy or worry.

I still remember that this girl was injured and came to see me off just before the city gate opened. She promised to make me my favorite apple pie when I got back, and tears were streaming down my face.When the bronze bell on the top of the city wall rang and the team moved forward slowly, her tears flowed out.I still rode forward, and she reluctantly yelled in tears: "——Evelyn, I'll wait for you to come back!"

At that time, I was also very sad. If I didn't have my own heart, I would definitely be with her, haha...

"Evelyn, what are you doing? You are still as lazy as usual at this time, are you impatient!" Just as I was distracted by grinning involuntarily, Squad Leader Nanaba roared and threw my Thoughts scattered.

I was so frightened that I looked at Nanaba's white face full of seriousness, I stopped my smile and quickly responded: "I'm sorry, monitor, I will pay attention!" I tightened the reins and lightly kicked the horse's belly, and steered the horse My son hastened to catch up with the standby squad, which was already a foot away from me.

"I'll go, it's dangerous." If I really get lost, I don't know how I will die.

On the other hand, Squad Leader Nanaba frowned and gave me a complicated look, and then rode his horse past me.Just as our class was marching in an orderly manner for about 10 minutes, there was a sudden loud noise, and a conspicuous red smoke suddenly rose from the sky on our left.

Everyone's heart tensed up, and even a few recruits let out a soft cry, and the deputy squad beside squad leader Nanaba immediately took out the flare gun and fired a red flare into the air.

In an instant, several streaks of red smoke rose in the sky, extending to the class on our right.Then Squad Leader Nanaba's steady voice broke away, and he turned his head and shouted at us: "——Quiet me! Speed ​​up!"

As soon as the words fell, several recruits flinched, then gritted their teeth and gripped the reins, and tightened their grip on the horse's belly to follow Nanaba at a fast pace.I turned my head and looked at the open prairie on the left, and vaguely heard the tearing sound of the three-dimensional mobile device when it was activated, and the shouts of the soldiers... At this moment, the seniors of the search team We must be contending with giants, and this time, we don't know how many people we will lose.

Regardless of the outcome, since they chose the Survey Corps, there is no way out.

The green signal flare in front rises, always leaning to the right, and everyone concentrates on galloping forward, following closely.

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

After getting rid of the giant's chase, the whole team finally arrived at our base before evening.This base is an abandoned farm on a high terrain surrounded by mountains and rivers, because the special geographical environment seems to be safe at present.However, there is a dilapidated small town below the farm. The small town is empty, and occasionally a few animals escaped.The town is relatively small, and we didn't find any trace of the giant after staying for a while.

We were exhausted and let out a long sigh of relief. The successive battles in the morning had caused us heavy losses. At this time, we don't want anything to go wrong.So the head of the group asked us to take a short rest within the farm to adjust our state.Then set up camp and prepare to rest for the night.

I sat cross-legged against the tree with the water bottle in my arms, watching the sun sinking in the sky, I squinted my eyes and poured myself a pot of water.After receiving the cooling comfort, I burped comfortably.

"——hahahahahaha!" A series of messy laughter exploded above my head, and I quickly looked up, only to see the pot head with his friend

Walking towards me, "Evelyn, you are so unfeminine!"

"Get out." I yelled angrily, and rolled my eyes at them, "What's wrong? One or two are asking for a fight?"

The two Jarhead brothers were not annoyed, they sat down in front of me, and taught me solemnly: "Evelyn, tell me about you, you are such a girl, you act so rudely, you have such a bad temper, no wonder no man likes you! Be careful! I can't get married in the future!"

Hey, these two three-eight, because they have been training together for so long, they can catch up with each other, so they come to scold me with their noses and faces?

I didn't get angry with them, but looked at them lazily, and said with a chuckle, "I can marry if I can't get married, but Leila is willing to marry me. Look at you again, at least 20-year-old boys , with a sloppy beard and sweat all day long—I guess the girl has never held hands? Seeing that you two are so inseparable, why don’t you just get together as a couple to live together.” I thought about bringing out Leila to stimulate them, after all, Leila and I La was so affectionate that they all thought I was bisexual.

I thought they would choke on me, but what the Jarhead brother did next made me vomit three liters of blood.The two brothers looked at each other affectionately, and suddenly the Jarhead said with a heavy and serious expression: "Ren——after we go back, let's try it!"

After speaking, Ren nodded equally seriously: "Okay!"

"Ha——" I was speechless, and it took a long time before I said with difficulty: "I wish you happiness!"

Seeing the two brothers embracing each other affectionately, Ben Bulb was just about to get up and run away. Unexpectedly, Renn found out my intention, he yanked my cloak violently, and I sat back on the ground.

"What are you doing!" I was a little annoyed.

Ren quickly laughed and said, "I'm sorry, Evelyn, I didn't mean it! Yes, I just want to ask you, you are going to marry Leila, what will the captain do!"

After finishing speaking, the pot head echoed repeatedly: "Yes, yes!"

I was stunned for a moment, then stood up abruptly, patted my chest and said boldly: "Soldier, I must marry home! Of course, Leila can't give up! Let's do it, when the time comes, I will ask the captain to marry Leila. Let's discuss and discuss, whoever is big and whoever is small, as long as we live together in harmony!" After speaking, I felt shameless, and I felt a radiance on my face, and I held my head up and smiled triumphantly.

As soon as the words fell, low laughter came from all around.A few people who came around looked at me contemptuously, and the two brothers in front of me looked at me in shock. After a long time, they just held hands, and then accused me in unison: "Evelyn, you are too stupid!" Love it!"

I laughed out loud: "You're right! That's it!"

Seeing them finally choking, I laughed even more smugly.Smiling and laughing, the eyes of the two brothers suddenly changed from shock to panic. I thought they were impressed by my resourcefulness, but when I looked closely, their eyes clearly fell behind me——

what's going on?Why do these two guys look like ghosts?behind me?what can there be

I turned around slowly, just in time to meet Levi's dark face.His dark blue eyes contained a trace of gloom—no, the visitor was not kind!

Oops, I'm so busy bragging, I don't pay attention to the occasion, I will annoy Levi later, will I be crippled by him on the spot?However, if I was lucky enough to die under the fist of the male god Ai, my life would not be in vain...

Ah bah, I was thinking about something messy again!

I was shocked, and I stood still and saluted: "Captain Levi!" With a serious look, it seemed that the mastermind who gathered the crowd to commit the crime just now was someone else.

The people around followed my footsteps and saluted immediately, and then fled quickly.

I secretly scolded this group of disloyal guys in my heart, and was thinking about how to settle accounts with them later, Levi's cold voice sounded in a low voice: "Yes, I know to bring my brain here at this time." I know, He saw me who was no longer depressed.Because no matter at any time, a depressed mood is not a good thing for a survey soldier.If there is no excitement, how can we concentrate on responding to the investigation outside the wall.

"That's right! I, Evelyn, love you forever! So, I will do whatever you say!" I flicked my bangs, took advantage of him unceremoniously, and doggedly Smile at him.

After finishing the words, a gust of wind gently brushed my cheek, and Levi didn't make a sound for a long time.Everything around was terribly quiet, I looked at Levi's eyes that were always as calm as water, and there seemed to be some inexplicable emotion passing by quickly.

I suddenly remembered that his eyes at this moment were similar to those of that day, with uncertainty but deep inquiry.But in those eyes, there seemed to be a faint light of unknown emotion.The faint light was shrouded by the splendor of the setting sun and gradually blurred.

"You and that guy—" he said, with a steady voice, like water in a deep valley, "very similar."

"That guy?" I repeated, muttering.

"She's just like you, she's a self-talking fool. It's just that she prefers to talk about unrealistic things." Levi spoke up, and his eyes returned to their usual silence.

I froze.I suddenly remembered that a long time ago, a young man had said similar words to me.

——It's nice to talk about the future here. I have to say that this is quite in line with your simple-minded style.

——It’s better to imagine a better future than think about what to eat tomorrow and how to kill those who want to harm you. If they don’t die, then you will die.

"She? Looks like me?" My nose suddenly felt a little sour, and something seemed to explode in my eyes. I opened my mouth with difficulty, and there seemed to be something crazily growing in my heart.

Wasn't that strange and short trip three years ago a dream?Did I really exist in that world and meet the young Levi?

Then he, remember me?

"You don't look like her—" Levi finally spits out the words quietly.

"Of course it's different." I pursed my lips and smiled bitterly, "At that time, I was a ghost..."

Through the afterglow, I saw that there seemed to be some emotions called throbbing spreading in Levi's eyes. He suddenly took a step forward, and his dark blue eyes were a little shocked.

"—All gather, there are six giants attacking from the southeast!" An urgent roar broke our stagnant atmosphere severely.Levi reacted first, and his right hand quickly pressed the trigger of the three-dimensional mobile device.

His expression returned to calm, but his eyes reflected a frightening awe. As his mood changed, I was in awe of his way of doing things, and I couldn't help but become serious.

"Be smart, don't become a giant's ration in vain."

Levi manipulated the three-dimensional mobile device to quickly go down the hillside, the dark green Wings of Freedom cloak flew against the wind, and he ran towards the behemoth ahead without hesitation.I looked at his wanton figure, his eyes were firm and calm, like my hero's invincible light.

The true brilliance is being relied on and trusted by everyone in this way.Use his most powerful power to break the way of life for everyone and move forward bravely.I am glad that the person I admire is as before, illuminating my way forward, cutting off my pessimism, and inspiring me to move forward.And he never let me down.

Thank you, Levi.

finally, I understand--

Three inches of heart, you are faith.

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

Six giants from the southeast came rushing towards our camp from a direction of several hundred meters. When Mick informed everyone of the information, before everyone had time to figure out why the giants suddenly attacked, Captain Erwin immediately ordered everyone to prepare for battle , Mounted quickly and prepared to evacuate.

Flat and open farms are not suitable for three-dimensional mobile devices to fight. Besides, there are a lot of giants this time. We will surely die and injure countless people in a head-to-head encounter, so retreating is the best way to fight.

After Levi left, I quickly returned to the center of the garrison, and soon I found Nanaba's order.Nanaba was leading my horse, and when he saw me, his tone was sullen: "Evelyn, where have you been? You don't care at this time? Aren't you afraid of death?"

"I'm sorry, monitor! I promise nothing will happen again! I'll let you handle it when I get back!" I took the leash and got on the horse.

The squad leader seemed a little surprised by my calm attitude. Soon, he regained his composure and ordered loudly to everyone in the order squad: "The order squad obeys orders—follow the main force and head northwest, and then hand over to the search squad and Levi. After class is over! Everyone, don't turn back!"

"Yes!" The voices of the crowd were passionate, and under the order of Nanaba, everyone rode forward.

The giants were shaking their white bodies and rushing towards us in various strange postures. Although they were still more than 100 meters away, we could clearly feel the violent trembling and roaring of the earth as they ran all the way.

I rode my horse and ran in the opposite direction of the giant. Two recruits of the same class beside me saw the giant behind me screaming in unison. Chirping like a bitch! Hurry up and run!"

The two of them were stunned by my roar, and then they reacted by shaking their hands and clenched the horse rope tightly, clamping the horse's belly and accelerating forward, not daring to turn back.

As soon as my voice fell, I suddenly realized that at this time, I was not as scared as before, and my heart was still somewhat stable.Maybe it was just turning around inadvertently, and vaguely saw a few dark green figures flying around the giant.As their nimble figures passed by, the giant fell down three heads!

——They, the Survey Corps, are fighting for us!

But when we advanced nearly 100 meters, the roar behind us became louder and louder, and we subconsciously turned around—a giant with a long tongue was rushing towards the medical team behind us without hesitation. , this is the most frightening strange species!And in the distance behind the strange species, there are two ordinary giants entangled with the soldiers behind them. The sudden mania of this strange species caught them by surprise.

Qi Xingzhong rushed into the medical class quickly, it stomped on the medical carriage, and then quickly grabbed a female soldier of the medical class and sent it to its mouth.

"The messenger squad is ready to fight!" Nanaba's veins burst into a roar, and we all pulled out the three-dimensional mobile device manipulator.At this moment, a figure soared into the air, severely cutting off the fingers of the strange species.And the female soldier in its hand screamed and fell from mid-air.

"—Ren! Catch her!" The figure with severed fingers landed on the roof beside me, and it was only then that I realized that this person was actually a pot head!

Ren over there quickly flew over to catch the female soldier, and then brought her safely on the horseback.Jarhead was very happy when he saw this, and he shouted happily at Ren: "——Great, we did it!"

"Be careful!" Someone yelled, but before it was too late, the giant hand of Qi Xingzhong had already tightly grasped the top of the pot lid on the roof.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa . , Jarhead's fear instinct was fully aroused, and he struggled frantically, but to no avail.At this moment, a dark green figure circled around the back of the giant's neck at a speed invisible to the naked eye, raised a knife and dropped it, the strange line stopped all movements, fell slowly, and hit the dilapidated house.

The unconscious pot head slipped from the giant's hand and fell straight into the dark and dilapidated house behind. There was only a loud crash of bricks and tiles, but it disappeared.

Levi landed lightly on the roof, he was covered in blood, as calm as a god descended from heaven.

"Showm!" Ren hurriedly flew to Levi's side, nervously looking at the dark pothole under the dilapidated house, "Where are you!"

"Tch!" Levi shook the blood-stained blade in his hand, and then stopped Ren who was about to charge down, "Be careful of the three-meter giant!" After saying that, he was the first to jump out of the house.

Everyone cheered for Levi's wonderful battle, six giants, sweep them all!

Seeing this scene, I held my head up proudly.Levi really deserves to be my male god!

Nanaba ordered to adjust the team to move on, and I subconsciously stopped at the intersection to look at the house Levi entered.Looking at the ruins around me, I felt an inexplicable palpitation in my heart.

It's been 2 minutes, why haven't Levi and the others come out yet?Is there any accident?

No, no, he is so powerful?Just knocked down a strange species!

Just when I was thinking wildly, I saw Ren coming out of the door of the broken house from a distance, and what seemed to be a seriously injured and unconscious Ren on his back.Immediately behind him is Levi holding a pair of knives.

Strange, why didn't they escape from the roof?Oh, that's right, the bricks and tiles on the roof are scattered, and there are even lower houses next to it. There is probably no place for the three-dimensional mobile device to find a climbing point.

I just breathed a sigh of relief, looked away, and suddenly saw that there seemed to be some strange noises in the house that was hit by the strange species just now, and I saw that the pillar supporting the house snapped and fell down.Immediately, the house shook a few times, and fell directly towards the house where Levi and the others were going to come out.

It's over, domino effect!

My mind suddenly went blank, remembering that Levi was about to be crushed under the cold and heavy bricks, no one knew whether he was alive or dead, and my heart was terrified for no reason.

"Run! The house is going to fall down!" I hissed, and as I spoke, I operated the three-dimensional mobile device to fly into the air and flew straight towards them.

"Evelyn! Come back!" The call behind her was drowned out by the ripping wind.Seeing that Levi swooped down and piled them to an open space a few meters away, but the human beings are too small, the whole house instantly submerged Levi with bricks and tiles.In the dust, I hugged a warm body.

At that moment, my heart was full of peace.

At that moment, I seemed to have the whole world.

......

When I realized it, someone seemed to be faintly calling my name by my ear, with a cold voice, but the tone seemed a little anxious.But this voice is both familiar and strange, and it has haunted me for many years.

I tried hard to open my eyes and look at this man.But I felt that my eyes seemed to be stuck by something, and I couldn't open them at all.My head seemed to be hit hard by something, and it hurt like it was about to explode.The most frightening thing was that my body couldn't move, as if it was out of my control.I felt as if a huge boulder was being firmly pressed down on my back, controlling me numbly.

How is this going?What's wrong with me?where am I?

I didn't have time to think about it, and my consciousness was gradually dominated by exhaustion.At this moment, I just want to sleep, so I will sleep in it, and I will talk about other things later...

"Evelyn!" Suddenly there was a soft cry, I only felt my arm being pinched hard, and I suddenly opened my eyes.What caught my eyes was darkness, my mind was in chaos, and it took me a long time to react.

"Are you awake?" Levi's voice rang softly in my ear, I froze for a moment, and then tried to analyze the source of the sound—right under me?Why?

It seems that the house just collapsed, and the moment the house submerged Levi, I seemed to hug him, and then we both fell under the rubble and dust.Then, he was overwhelmed by me?

In other words, Levi is okay?

"You're fine...cough cough, puff——" I said happily, but just after inhaling a few mouthfuls of dust, my lungs hurt so badly that I couldn't speak out from the choking, and then something It rushed up from my throat quickly, and then a scorching hot stream shot out of my mouth uncontrollably and onto Levi's face.

A bloody smell penetrated my nostrils, and gradually, I felt that every part of my body was hit countless times with a giant hammer, and the severe pain spread from my back to my whole body.Something scorching hot all over my body, wet and sticky.

I wanted to talk, but it hurt even to take a breath, and my breathing gradually became heavy, accompanied by the sound of tracheal neighing.

It hurts, it really hurts, I have never felt so uncomfortable, I want to sleep so much, I want to kill myself so much.

"Does it hurt?" Levi paused, and then said in a low voice, "Don't sleep, Hanji will save us soon."

But Levi, I can't feel my legs below my waist anymore.Maybe my leg has been broken?I've bled so much, can I live?I still remember the feeling of death, blood all over my body, and closing my eyes in severe pain... Even if I go out, if I survive, I will be just a disabled person, and I will not be able to walk in this life.

I can no longer follow you forward, how much I want to stand by your side and fight shoulder to shoulder with you.

I couldn't control it anymore, tears rolled down from the corners of my eyes.Weeping slightly, it affected the pain nerves of the whole body.

"Levi." I breathed hard, trying to make myself less painful in this dark and confined space, "Do you remember me? I was 16 when I first met you, and so were you. …”

"At that time, only you could see me... I was really, really happy. Before that, I worshiped you for a long time..." It hurts, my whole body is torn, but I If I say it, I want to say it all, I'm afraid I'll just disappear, he won't know who I am anymore, he will forget who I am, "In our world, you are the wall, the character of the story ...You are so powerful, you are everyone's hero, just like other girls, I like you very much, and I want to be like you too...Leave the dark place and become a person who lives in the light ..."

"That's enough, shut up." His hand on my shoulder tightened suddenly.

"No, I'm going to say..." I laughed softly and burst into tears. It is impossible for many people to be able to embrace him at this moment.Levi is very warm, I wish time would stop at this moment forever, "You are our hero, because of you, we know... So there is such a gentle person in this world, he cares silently Every subordinate, respect them, respect every life... It turns out that there are such people, whenever we are in the dark, tell us to be brave and go out with all our strength."

I finally survived the hard three years of high school, thinking that all the hard work will pay off, my dad can finally look up to me and be proud of me, but...some people are willing to sink, no matter what I do, there is no way to get him out of the abyss When I salvaged it, the persistent me seemed more like I was cocooning myself.As time went by and the situation changed, I also became like them, giving up my ideals, jumping up in despair and giving up my life.

I'm sorry for myself who worked hard, I'm sorry for my grandparents who had high hopes for me, I'm sorry for Levi who I followed wholeheartedly......

"But Levi, I'm so useless... I gave up on myself, I committed suicide, and I promised you that I must be strong, but in the end I slapped myself in the face... But, I'm really tired and I can't hold it any longer."

"You've done a good job." Levi was silent for a moment, and said quietly: "In those days in the underground street, I met all kinds of people. They persecuted me, and every time I was very disgusted , I hope that group of pigs disappear before my eyes. The ridiculous thing is, I hope I can disappear too...but sometimes when I see those people's hypocritical smiling faces, I actually think of you."

"I remember something..." I smiled, my voice became weaker and weaker, "I'm not hypocritical... I really want to marry you beautifully..."

"——You are so weak that you think about living well. I have no reason to give up."

"Pfft..." Levi really isn't suitable for comforting people, "Can't you praise me well at a time like this?"

"A useless stinky brat is not worthy of praise. When you go back, you will double your training."

"...Okay." My hand on his shoulder gradually lost strength, and the pain in my body seemed to be getting lighter and lighter. I suddenly wanted to sleep, and driven by exhaustion, I slowly closed my eyes.

But I was so at ease, the strong smell of blood couldn't overwhelm the refreshing scent of saponins on his body.It's nice to sleep here.

"Levi, I'm sleepy. By the time I wake up, the giant must have been driven out."

"waiting for your good news."

This time, we are not saying goodbye.

So, I wish you peace and joy.

Thank you for being with me for years through my dark days.

my favorite person.

My heart will always beat for you.
