It was not until the last official document was corrected that Sakarski realized that the surroundings were too quiet. He paused for a moment and then remembered that this silence had been maintained for a long time. One last stroke.

Put the signed paper on the top of the pile of documents by the desk, then slowly arrange the sundries on the desk, and finally he sank back on the back of the chair, only then did he have the thought to raise his eyes.

Looking around, he fixed his eyes on a certain figure, and the corners of his mouth slightly lifted.

Under the round observation window on the bulkhead of the warship, the person was lying on the single sofa she had dragged over by herself, facing the room with the back of her head. She seemed to be asleep, but he knew she was not asleep at all, because no matter how much she pretended to be , her tense body still gave away the secret.

Like a frizzy cat, Sakalski thought.

Qiantui Baisui is obviously a bird, but sometimes it is more like a cat than a cat. It likes seafood and is full of curiosity. It refuses to get close to anyone who pleases it.

She was so panicked because Qiuqiu, whom she was extremely afraid of, was in the same room as her.

And Qiuqiu... He stopped staring at her, and turned his gaze back to the desk in front of him. Qiuqiu was curled up in a corner of the table. From his perspective, the fluffy ball was posing with her. exactly the same pose...

It's a good thing she didn't notice, he thought.

If she found out, she would probably cry more miserable than throwing the ball directly on her face, right?He is terribly afraid of cats, but Qiuqiu, who looks almost like a cat, recognizes him as his master.

Of course, he won't tell her, just like back then, when he discovered the abnormality of the ball early in the morning, he still let it choose its owner freely.

After more than [-] years, after Qiantui Baisui reappeared, Qiuqiu began to adjust secretly again, trying to develop into a state in tune with her.

Really persistent, isn't it?

Sakaski sighed silently, leaned over slightly, and stretched out his hands to rub the ball that was curled up into a ball.

As expected, Qiuqiu did not fall asleep. His fingertips touched the soft fluff, and the soft ball moved. He turned his head back to look at him, as if he had thought about it, he reluctantly rubbed back against him, and then he persevered Get back into the same pose as her.

Withdrawing his hand, he narrowed his eyes, and there was a fleeting smile in the depths of his pupils.

When Qiuqiu chose Qiansui Baisui, Sakaski was too proud to accept defeat, so he didn't explain it at the beginning, in order to see her panicked by Qiuqiu, and he admitted that he was bad.

I don't talk about it now, but for the sake of the ball.

Qiuqiu has been by his side for more than [-] years, and once almost lost her life because of her, but now she still looks like she can't wait to escape to the sky, even if it is a hairball, it will be sad, right?

Why should he get back some interest for Qiuqiu?

Sakalski admits that no matter how much time passes, he still retains bad factors in his character, just like no matter how much time passes, his classmate and colleague will still only be foolish for her.

……

Thinking of that stupid man, Sakaski inevitably thought of before leaving.

Today's trip to Chambord was originally not in any plan, but the reason for the hasty decision was for thousands of years old.

It's funny to say, Sakalski and Polusalino, two admirals of the navy, actually panicked about a woman when they were old, and many people would laugh their ass off when word spread.

But there is no way, in Polusalino's half life, the only thing that would make him stupid is a thousand years old; and Sakaski, after so many years, there are very few friends alive by his side.

Polusalino and millennia, misfortune are one and the other.

The above factors are superimposed, so it may be that he has to go out in person, who makes the three of them sad classmates, even if they have been missing for more than [-] years, for Polusalino and Qiuqiu, Sakaski will not There was no way to leave her alone.

Polusalino's brain would be burnt when he met a thousand and a hundred years old, but that woman was too smart, she would immediately notice the clues if she was careless, and in order not to let her notice, Sakaski temporarily abandoned The next official job is for her dereliction of duty once.

The reason is that she cannot stay at Marineford today.

Marineford may soon have a "visited guest" visit, and it was the intelligence that showed that the person had already approached the Navy headquarters, which made Polusalino so anxious that he forgot everything, for fear that he would be abducted if he was not careful. Walk.

That...their first teacher, former General Zefa the black-armed.

Neither Sakalski nor Polusalino could confirm the reliability of the news. The former general Zefa had resigned from all positions and disappeared from the navy's sight. It's not that the intelligence department had tried to find it, but unfortunately found nothing.

That man is too powerful, familiar with all the bright and dark methods of the navy, no tracking search will work on him.

Now the traces of the black-armed Zefa will suddenly appear in the navy's line of sight. Although it is only a star and a half, it also makes the senior management of the Marineford Navy extremely nervous.

At the same time, it also made their general Huang Yuan feel uncomfortable sleeping and eating.

From the Marshal of the Warring States Period to the generals, all the people who know the inside story have very complicated feelings for Zefa. After all, he is the man who trained all the famous generals in modern times. He is their teacher and their colleague.

However, the senior management of the Marineford Navy Headquarters also knows better that the current black-armed Zefa... has an unknown purpose.

Compared with the unspeakable emotions mixed with other generals' admiration for Zefa, Sakaski believed that Polusalino's attitude towards their teacher was more jealous.

The reason is thousands of years old.

Anyone with eyes could see that Chitose was incomprehensibly obsessed with black-armed Zefa, but only Sakalski discovered that their classmate, Polusalino, was acting stupidly weird just for Chitose.

In Sakalski's view, Polusalino really has some aesthetic problems, or he is shaking M. After all, not every man dares to accept a thousand-year-old hundred-year-old...a monster with explosive force value and terrifyingly smart.

Being able to love so much that he can't extricate himself, Polusalino's spirit can be called fearless.

Even now, a thousand years old and a hundred years old, she doesn't remember anything, Polusalino is still worried, if she repeats the same mistakes of the past and becomes obsessed with the black-armed Zefa.

Polusalino said he dared not take the risk.

Then the result can only be to defraud Qiantui Baisui and avoid the possibility of her meeting that man.

Since he was young, Polusalino has never been able to cure himself of being a fool for thousands of years. Sakaski deeply felt that his classmate was a tragedy.

……

If she wants to leave Marineford for a thousand years, Polusalino said that as long as she is given a valid reason, of course, she cannot tell her the truth, that would be self-defeating.

Because a thousand years old will be curious, she doesn't want to get back her past memories, but she must want to know what kind of existence the man who once made her fascinated by.

Fortunately they have a valid reason at hand.

Rumors have been rampant in Marineford in recent days... As Admiral of the Navy, Sakaski is one of the few high-level people who know the truth. That matter is now being carried out in secret, and the central figure of the operation is the ghost spider.

If he wants to take Qiantui Baisui away from Marineford...even if Polusalino is reluctant, he can only use the reason of 'cooperating with ghost spiders to deceive people'.

It can be regarded as one stroke.

On the one hand, it can blind a certain part of the sight that needs to be blinded, and the next action of the ghost spider will not be suspected.

The second is to cleverly avoid the contact between Qiantui Baisui and the black-armed Zefa, so as to prevent their general Huang Yuan from losing his composure.

Because if they meet, Polusalino will dig through the old scores regardless of whether they will fall in love with their teacher again after so many years.

At that time... Sakaski felt that his two classmates were going to fight [-]% of the time, and Polusalino didn't have to think that he was the one who got beaten.

Where is a thousand years old who is willing to suffer?Even if she was confused, she would definitely beat Polusalino first.

Sakasky noticed more than twenty years ago that Chitose likes to use her fists to reason with others. Her bad habits are just like her appearance, and they haven't changed at all until now.

In order to avoid strange rumors, such as General Huang Yuan, now Bo Xishan can't even beat a woman... The cause of the confusion is better to be avoided in advance.

Of course, Sakaski didn't think that Chitose Centenarian's skill at this time would be able to defeat the admiral. Back then, she was evenly matched with them alone, but now it's hard to say.

Unless she has experienced as many storms as they did, and fought on the front line of life and death for many years like them.

That is obviously impossible, the temperament of a thousand years old is still so clean that it is not stained with dust.

It was Polusalino who was reluctant.

The admiral of their navy, Huang Yuan, who has always regarded women as playthings, is reluctant to say even serious words to Qiantui Baisui, let alone fight her.

The one who falls into the relationship first must be the loser.

The opponent is thousands of years old, and Polusalino suffered a crushing defeat as early as twenty years ago.

……Dividing line……

Until a very shrill scream pierced into the consciousness, the sound was so penetrating, it was shocking.

Sakaski opened his eyes abruptly, only to realize that he had fallen asleep unknowingly. The moment he woke up, he cast his eyes precisely on the source of the sound, but he was slightly startled when he saw it.

Under the round observation window of the warship bulkhead, on the sofa for one person, Qiuqiu spread out his limbs and flung himself on it like a piece of leather, but the thousand-year-old who was supposed to be there was nowhere to be seen.

Dazed for two seconds, eyes raised a few degrees, Sakaski habitually looked at the ceiling——after following the same situation in the past, thousands of years and centuries were always hanging upside down...

Only today, Sakalski has nothing but chandeliers on the ceiling.

So... where's the guy?Escaped through a broken window?

Before Sakarski closed his eyes and turned to look at the observation window, in the corner of his eyes, the leather cushion called ball ball on the sofa arched?

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Sakarski stared quietly at Qiuqiu's strange movements: the hairy ball stretched out its limbs and claws to hook the sofa, obviously it was fighting against something, and that thing was hidden under its belly.

After a while, a jet-black velvet ball emerged from under the cover of Qiuqiu's belly.

It was also a chubby ball, and when it struggled out, it immediately flapped its wings and flew high, stumbled in the narrow space of the cabin, and ran away in a panic, but quickly hit the round observation window glass and became the second leather cushion.

It was flat on the glass with a slap, and I don't know whether it was fainted by the collision or frightened, and it slid down against the glass without moving.

Sure enough... Sakaski couldn't help raising his hand to his forehead.

The problem of being afraid of cats for thousands of years, and Polusalino's stupidity, are simply unsolved mysteries.

See how scared she looks?Not to mention turning into a bird and hitting the glass directly, how about laughing to death? !

……

After rubbing his forehead and taking off the black thread hanging from the back of his head, Sakaski got up expressionlessly, walked slowly to the lookout window, and caught the black velvet ball before it fell straight to the ground.

Looking at the black mass lying on the palm of his belly, Sakaski looked down again at the trouser leg that was sprinting over to scratch him, and then began to climb up Qiuqiu, who obviously wanted to keep getting closer. Finally, he pursed his lips and turned back.

Walking to the desk, he took down the ball that quickly climbed up to his shoulder, placed it lightly on the table, and then raised the hand holding the ball of fluff a little higher, "You scared her, Qiuqiu."

Sakalski tried to reason with the hairball, "She's very scared, look, she's shaking."

From the corner of his eyes, Sakaski sighed softly, "Qiaoqiu——" He emphasized the warning in his tone, because he knew that Qiuqiu could understand, "Give her some time. "

Probably just dreamed about the past. In the dream, she and them were young and frivolous. When they opened their eyes, half of their lives had passed. She was missing. I don’t know how much hardship I have suffered in these years. Is there anyone who is willing to be wronged by such a delicate person? Stand up for her.

Thinking of this, Rao Sakaski's heart softened slightly, "Don't scare her now, okay?"

After comforting Qiuqiu, and waiting for it to tuck its ears up on the desk, Sakasky refocused on the thousand-year-old who had turned into a bird in his palm.

Her changed appearance is very different from that of Xinyueye back then. At that time, her wings were stretched out behind her back and she was extremely glamorous, but now she is like a ball, so round that you can't even find your head.

After watching carefully for a few seconds, Sakaski stretched out his hand, poked carefully, paused and poked again, the fluffy ball trembled with his movements, trembled again, and finally opened Douziyan.

Covered with a layer of silver gauze, blue eyes.

The corners of his mouth curled up, and Sakaski was about to speak a few words to tease her, when someone knocked on the cabin door before he could speak.

……

"...General...General Sakasky..." It was the voice of the guards, and for some reason, the knocking on the door before he answered became heavier and more urgent.

Frowning slightly, Sakaski quickly understood why the guard's reaction was so strange. Did he rush over to check after hearing the scream?

After thinking about it, he turned back to staring at the cabin door, and said in a low voice, "Return to human form, thousands of years old."

The guard did not dare to take the next step without receiving the order, and Sakaski could ignore it, but... the voice of the guard alarmed the ghost spider resting in the nearby room, and at this moment, the breath was already approaching quickly.

Maybe she was really frightened by Qiuqiu, she didn't react at all in a daze.

"Change back, immediately." With his thoughts flying, Sakarsky ordered, "Otherwise, I will give you to the ghost spider to raise."

In an instant, the presence of the ghost spider appeared outside the cabin.

The lieutenant general standing outside the door exuded great vigilance, and before the ghost spider launched a knowledgeable investigation, Sakaski looked at the pair of silver-blue bean eyes in his palm and threatened with a blank expression, "I think ghost The spider would love to keep you, Briquette."

……

It may be that I was shocked by the enthusiasm of the ghost spider before, and the black velvet mass spread on the palm changed without warning. In the blink of an eye, a small ball faded away, and the soft outline outlined delicate lines in the air...

The cabin door was slashed open by the impatient ghost spider, and Qian Sui Bai Sui returned to human form without any risk.

It's just that both Sakaski and she forgot one thing... With a touch, the steel cabin door slammed into pieces and fell to the ground, several air currents were created, and people inside and outside fell into a strange silence at the same time.

Sakalski just felt a headache and was speechless for the second time today.

He just didn't have time to stop it, because he couldn't be distracted for a while, he needed to take care of the secret of the thousand years, who would have expected that the ghost spider, as always, moved faster than his thoughts, and broke the door while mobilizing his sense of knowledge.

It turned out to be fine now...

Qiantui Baisui sat on the desk in front of him, because she was held in the palm of his hand before, and the distance between her and him was so close that it was unseemly.

The other thing is that her legs hang down shamefully on both sides of his body.

Sakaski, who lowered his head halfway, stared at his dizzy and upturned face, and he and she looked at each other in blank dismay.

After a long time, Sakaski saw the daze in Qiantui Baisui's eyes gradually dissipate, she stared at him blankly, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.

……

After a while, the unspeakable and embarrassing silence was pierced by the ghost spider's snort.

Then there was the sound of putting the knife back into its sheath.

Pursing the corners of his lips, he raised his hand to straighten the somewhat open neckline of the man sitting on the desk. Finally, Sakaski turned his face sideways, raised his chin, and motioned for the guards waiting by the door to evacuate.

The pale-faced guard turned around and ran away, his back bumped like a defeated soldier on the battlefield.

Sakaski frowned, thought for a while but resisted the urge to call out to the young soldier to reprimand him. No wonder the young man, he knew, was the general who behaved improperly first.

"Looks like I'm bothering you." The ghost spider standing in front of the door looked half-smile, glanced around the room, and then looked down at the cabin door on the ground, "Recently I often do such ignorant things, it's strange .”

Sakasky, who didn't know how to answer for a moment, moved away two steps with a blank expression, and asked Chitose to face the ghost spider. Anyway, it was all caused by her, so let her solve it~ Chitose Baisui even Polusalino was able to handle it well, and I believe that he would also be handy with the ghost spider. Sakaski would not admit that he was avoiding the problem.

He moved away, and Qian Sui Bai Sui immediately jumped off the table as if he was burned, and rushed to the cabin door in three or two steps, looking like he was running away, and then she was intercepted by the ghost spider raising his hand.

The way forward was cut off by the ghost spider with a horizontal knife. Thousands of years old stopped, but didn't say anything. He just took a few steps back, turned around, raised his hand to take out something from his pocket, and then raised his hands to remove the scattered long hair. Hair tied up.

Her expression was calm and composed, but Sakaski found that the ghost spider behind her was dumbfounded, and he couldn't hide his shock when he looked at her.

Not long after Qiantui tied up her hair and put down her hands, the ghost spider stared straight at her hair, narrowing her eyes slightly, and asked hoarsely after a while, "Where did you get your hair accessories?"

"Eh?" Qiantui Baisui turned his head slightly, his voice seemed a little stunned, "Is this originally mine?" After she finished speaking, she turned her face back and asked for proof, "Right? When you returned it to me, he said yes I fell~"

Sakaski was stunned, thought for a while, and nodded slowly, "It's yours." The thousand-year-old hair ornament is indeed what she left behind, but...it belongs to Polusalino .

It was funny to say that Polusalino had prepared so many jewels for the millennium, that the foolish man was willing to offer her all on a plate before anything had even begun.

Unfortunately, in the end, there was only one hair accessory she wore for a few days, and she left it in their bathroom later.

She didn't remember anything, but that pathetic man Polusalino tricked her. Maybe the things he wanted to give her back then could only be put in her hands by such deception?

……

After getting the answer, Ghost Spider's expression was indescribable for a moment, and it took a while to come back to his senses. He snorted, but suddenly changed the subject when he opened his mouth, "Land in two hours, there is an auction over there in Chambord, you Come with me."

"Eh?" Qiansui paused for a moment, and then replied loudly, "Yes, Lieutenant General Ghost Spider." After she finished speaking, she sprinted out from the side of Ghost Spider, left a sentence to change clothes, and then ran away trace.

When she disappeared as if she was desperate, Ghost Spider lowered the corners of her mouth and said in a cold voice, "Who is she?"

Sakaski silently looked at the lieutenant general standing by the door for a long time, closed his eyes, but nodded without answering, knowing that he didn't need to answer.

Because Ghost Spider already has the answer.

When the ghost spider stared at the hair ornament of Qiantui Baisui, Sakaski knew that he couldn't hide it from the lieutenant general, although he didn't intend to hide it from anyone, but no one would believe it.

Who would believe it?After all, she was young and charming, seemingly ignorant of the world, and old men like him and Polusalino, who were dying, couldn't tell that they were classmates with her.

It was only at this time that Sakaski felt the same for Polusalino's recent gaffes.

Thousands of years old, she was absent from their half of their lives, and after forgetting everything by herself, she invaded the rest of their calm years without warning... What a wayward bastard.
