Chapter 313 The Fear of Midnight

"Now that the operation about Tu Wana is over, according to the agreement with you, I should also teach the standard swordsmanship of the military academy as a reward."

After resting enough, Ellie stood up again.She lightly lifted her left knee, while adjusting the delicate muscles on her calf, she said:

"Although even if there is no such agreement, I originally planned to teach it to you."

When talking about this incident, Ellie couldn't help but smile in her usual cold eyes, but at the same time, there was a trace of complicated expression.

This is the second time she said this sentence, but her mood is completely different from the last time.Before that, although she was young, she was aloof and regarded herself as a guide on the path of Ke Lin's practice.But now, Ellie began to be uncertain about her and Colin's positions.

After all, does this person really need the standard swordsmanship of a military academy?Sometimes such questions pop up in Ellie's mind, and then she starts to feel ignorant and small.

She knew that her guess might not be accurate, but she couldn't stop thinking about it.After all, Ellie has never experienced such a strong sense of bewilderment and frustration since she embarked on the path of a wizard.

"Yes." Colin agreed, and this is also the purpose of his coming to the training ground:

"Then, let's start with attaching the Lingsu blade today."

"Lingsu blade..."

Only attaching them to the physical blade will achieve a higher energy-efficiency ratio than using pure spiritual elements to form the blade.

This form of combining spiritual essence and matter can gain more advantages in frequency warfare.Because even if the opponent uses zeroing, the threat of the knife itself still exists.

The information flashed through Ellie's mind, but she had something else on her mind.

"...A few days ago, how did you kill that spirit body?"

This question has been entangled with Ellie for several days, so after Colin mentioned Lingsu Blade, she subconsciously asked it out.

In Mrs. Tuwana's house, it was she who attached the spirit element to Colin's blade herself.

So Ally knows exactly what that sword can and cannot do.

If the "impossible" comes true, it means that her current cognition is wrong.

Facing her inquiry, Colin was silent for a moment:

"...Didn't you say that I don't care about going back to Baidu?"

"As a member of the investigation department, I don't care what the truth is." Allie said:

"But as a wizard, I cannot ignore such a miracle."

This can be a fatal problem, or it can be an opportunity for a breakthrough.

Then, she said in a remedial way:
"Of course you don't have to answer. I didn't mean to test, after all... everyone has their own secrets."

"That's an amazing new technology."

Colin spoke the truth in general terms, he recalled, and finally saw Craigie experimenting under the redstone lamp again:
"It's a bit ingenious, but it's far from overturning the alliance's existing theories. I don't know much, so I can only make a general guess: Your cognition is still correct, at most there are some dead ends, so there is no need to doubt yourself. "He said:
"When the time is right, maybe I can tell you the content of this technology."

"Okay." Ellie looked at him and said seriously:

"I believe you."

After completing the first practice under Ellie's guidance, it was already eleven o'clock at night.Ellie was going to stay on the training ground and adapt to Qingxingtian's power alone, so Ke Lin left first.

After Colin walked out of the apartment building where his office was located, a small figure wrapped in a cloak quietly followed his footsteps from behind.Colin didn't look back, because he knew it was Boyd Elvis who had been in the storage room all day.

The puppet may have been in a daze for a day, or it may have been watching a play for a day.

The villa that was used as a dormitory by the investigation department was empty. After taking a brief shower, Colin lay on his back on his bed, sorting out the recent events, big and small, in his mind.

Frank did what he told him to do. He was the first police detective to discover something strange in Tuwana's mansion, and destroyed the scene in the name of collecting evidence.In this way, the last trace left by the investigation department was also erased.

However, Colin still felt faintly uneasy.After all, after the battle that night, he did feel his vision vaguely.

It should not be an ordinary person who can find himself, so who could he be?

Two days have passed. If this witness really existed, it shouldn't have been so long without any movement.Is it really just an illusion?

Colin was still wandering through his thoughts, and the time passed bit by bit.

In the middle of the night, when dreams are not dreams, people become extremely vulnerable.The uneasiness in my heart is rapidly expanding, and a little bit of doubt will be regarded as reality, and then completely swallowed by fear.

At first Colin was just worried about the sight, but then the worry started to spread.He thought of Ellie's question, and couldn't help wondering whether his decision to save her was correct.

She must be curious, and there is no way to ignore it.

"The Lieutenant" would never have done something like this a few weeks ago... He learned how to survive in that environment, so he firmly believes that it is not right to take such risks for others.Once his identity is revealed, then both the plan to seize the principality and the reunion with Ji Lian will come to naught.

So, is it better to silence it as soon as possible?

Colin still had his eyes closed, but his breathing was disordered, and his chest heaved uncomfortably.

It's better to get rid of the future troubles, he thought, Ellie didn't have too many doubts, and there was no sign of betraying him, but no doubts themselves were doubts.You can't just believe what others say.He held the corner of the quilt tightly, and began to uncontrollably imagine how to get rid of Ellie without a trace, and at the same time, he felt deep fear and torture.

Only failure is intolerable.

In the darkness, the puppet sat weakly against the corner, with its head tilted to one side.Hongyu's eyes were opened hollowly, as if they were still reflecting the dim light.

The things lodged inside had already left, retreated to the interior of Colin, and took a short nap.

Colin frowned in pain, but at the same time he also faintly felt some confusion and confusion. It was not his confusion, but came from somewhere in his heart.

After a few minutes of silence, a faint sound came from the same place.

What these syllables carry is not in any known language, but it is extremely soft and cold, like a lullaby sung under the moon.That was the inhuman, indescribable heartbeat of Boyd Elvis.It was as if a spring of Wang Qing had poured into his heart, making Ke Lin gradually feel peaceful.

In addition to soothing, the incomprehensible voice also contained some guilt and pity. After all, Colin became like this because of her.

The uneasiness receded like a tide, and Colin gradually loosened his grip on the quilt, breaking away from paranoid delusions and relaxing.

He was already very tired, so he immediately fell into a dark and sweet sleep.
