Feast of villains

Nance was lost in thought.

The wind blows from the sea, bringing a faint smell of sea tide.

When everything was settled, the police from the Shin-Yokohama Police Station came over one after another and used cordons to keep the spectators outside, and the reporters who came with them were also kept at a distance.

This riot was too sensitive, and the police did not dare to express their opinions randomly. They could only maintain the chaotic order while repeating the same words to the camera.

"This is a very bad terrorist attack. The situation is currently under control. More detailed information needs to be investigated..."

Nance turned his gaze and looked at the chaotic ninth class: "They are stepped on ants. Queen, you are a god, right?"

"Although I didn't kill them with my own hands, it doesn't matter if they are counted on me." Ximena glanced at him lightly, her cold lips slightly opened, "You should be glad that you crawled faster, otherwise it would be the same."

He was trampled to death."

"Am I that weak..." Nance scratched his hair.

Ximena looked at the falling snowflakes and replied seriously: "You are really, really weak."

"..."

"But I did pretty well today."

"Thanks."

"Do you think this king is ruthless?"

"Kind of." Nance nodded.

"Hey, look." Ximena stretched out her hand and framed a small piece of scenery on the sea with her fingers, "Your current field of vision can only see such a large area, understand? And as for me...

A very, very high place.”

As she spoke, she raised her hand, pointed to the sky, and said with a smile: "I am above, and my field of vision is wider than the field of view of all the people on the ground combined."

"What exactly can you see at such a high place?" Nance asked seriously.

Ximena's extremely youthful brows and eyes revealed a clear beauty, and she replied lightly: "I have witnessed the moment when a huge mature star collapsed and was annihilated at the edge of the black hole's horizon, and I have admired the splendor of the supernova remnants in the Pillars of Creation.

Glory, and even witnessed with his own eyes how Voyager 1 was swallowed up by turbulence in the Kuiper Belt. All those moments that seemed great at the time turned out to be nothing more than an insignificant moment in the long river of time that will eventually pass, just like...

…”

She paused, stretched out her hand outside the umbrella, caught a snowflake, and watched quietly as the snowflake melted under the warmth of her palm.

"Just like the disappearance of this snowflake."

Nance looked at the Queen blankly.

Her eyes were leisurely looking around the other side of Victoria Harbor, and her beautiful face showed no trace of time. After looking at it for a while, he wondered: "You are so powerful, why can't you get along with an ordinary person like me..."

"I am bored." Ximena spread her hands and shrugged unladylikely, "Besides, the way you appeared is very interesting. There is something in your body that can block the intrusion of my spirit. How can I let you go?"

This gesture is not noble or arrogant at all, it is even a bit neurotic, but it is very cute.

Nance also imitated her and spread his hands and shrugged: "Be careful of me, the ant, crawling on you."

"Before that, please treat me to a bowl of noodles." The queen raised her legs and walked forward, "While there is still time, I will tell you the cause of this matter."

Nance froze on the spot.

"Huh?" Ximena looked back at him, a fierce light flashing in her eyes, "Not happy?"

"Uh, no..." Nance blushed and said weakly: "I have no money."

The scene was quiet for a while.

It was so quiet that Nance wanted to jump directly into the sea.

The snowflakes fell silently between the two of them for a long time. Finally, the queen burst into laughter without caring about her image.

"Hahaha……"

Listening to her heavenly laughter, Nance gritted his teeth and repeated: "I really have no money, no matter how loud you laugh, I still have no money..."

"Trickster!"

Ximena scolded him lightly.

She turned around and continued walking forward, the black skirt swimming gently behind her like a fish.

The clear and sweet sound reached Nance's ears from afar.

"Today, I will take care of you——"

The cold wind howled and the traffic flowed by.

The sky was still overcast. Nance held an umbrella and walked with the Queen on the narrow streets of New Yokohama. The commuter trains on the viaduct rumbled overhead.

Not long after leaving, the two casually entered a small restaurant.

This is a restaurant that sells bone soup. The tables and chairs are relatively clean and not too greasy.

Nance ordered a pot of soup, two bowls of noodles and some side dishes, wiped the table and chairs again, and asked the Queen to sit down.

She has a slender figure and a face that is so perfect that it can make people enchant. The shop owner secretly glanced at her several times while ordering. He must have been wondering how such a noble and beautiful woman could come to a street like him.

Side shop.

While waiting for the food to arrive, Ximena asked.

"Do you know your situation?"

Nance, who was sitting opposite her, recalled the dilapidated environment of Section 9 and the defeat after the riot, and wondered: "Is Section 9 very unpopular with the cabinet?"

"On the surface, I won't, but secretly I have already given up on Lesson 9." Ximena replied, leaning back in her chair.

Nance nodded thoughtfully: "Is it related to the secret you mentioned?"

"That's right."

"The Ninth Section is an institution that is destined to be destroyed, so very little funding is provided to prevent it from repairing the infrastructure and maintaining a higher standard of security..." Nance frowned and spoke while thinking.

Slowly, "That's why we let a slum kid who just graduated and has no background become the section chief. Tokisaki, who is more capable, only became the adjutant because his background is old enough."

"If you can understand this, you are not stupid." Ximena looked at him like a carpenter looking at wood, "I killed the previous Nance because I originally wanted to use your body as a puppet.

I did this, but by chance you showed up."

Nance was silent for a few seconds and sighed: "I'm really unlucky..."

"You can choose not to accept this fate." Ximena said calmly, her voice coming from a distant place.

How to not accept it?

Nance thought about this question.

"I can take back the Leviathan Heart and the Holy Spear, and find a new body for your current consciousness, so that you can live as an ordinary person." Ximena looked down with her usual indifferent attitude.

He said, "But because this matter is extremely confidential and no more than 10 people in the entire empire know about it, I need to completely remove this part of your memory before I can let you go free. Are you willing?"

Nance looked at her silently.

Because of the yellow powder-like light behind it, the Queen's outline had a faint shadow. He looked at her for a long time, and the dust broke away from the ceiling and danced messily in the light.

After a while, Nance replied: "No need, I think this is not impossible."

If it had been a few hours ago, he would have readily agreed.

But after experiencing the riots in Lesson 9 and watching hundreds of people disappear in an instant, he felt that in such a world, ordinary people might not even be considered individuals in the eyes of the strong.

Ordinary people without strength can only survive even if they can survive.

Ximena stared at him and said solemnly: "I am not forcing you."

"..."

Nance couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

Could it be that the queen who scared me this morning and gave me something without asking was your twin sister?
