Shinji Ikari returns from Warhammer

"What?" Asuka came back to her senses, "Oh, are you talking about the starry sky? It doesn't seem to work, so let's wait for the DLC first."

The four of them chatted with each other, and Asuka hit Shinji Ikari's shoulder with her elbow as a counterattack. Shinji Ikari pinched Asuka's belly under the table. Misato Katsuragi frowned when she saw it and said, you are all adults, don't talk to children. Is it okay for the kids to play house?We are facing a very difficult situation. The beer is gone. Who is going to buy it now?

Shinji Ikari and Asuka turned a deaf ear at the same time. Finally, Rei Ayanami stood up and walked to the entrance, taking the garbage down with her.

Ten minutes later, Ayanami Rei returned home carrying four bottles of fruit beer.Katsuragi Misato couldn't help but take it, and Ayanami Rei, who looked like a porcelain doll, returned to her seat and ate her curry rice with her eyes lowered.A plain and quiet face gives people the feeling of an old monk practicing Zen, even when he is just eating. His face is full of harmlessness.

In the bathroom, Shinji Ikari stood under the shower head and let the water wash away the foam on his body.

"It's so cool! Let's have a bottle of beer after dinner. It would be better if it's cold." Misato Katsuragi lay on her back in the bathtub next to her, rubbing her slightly bulging white belly comfortably.Then sink slightly until the water reaches your shoulders.

Katsuragi Misato let out a breath of alcohol and lay calmly on the edge of the bath.Although most of her body was underwater, a large area of ​​skin on her chest was still exposed. After the water rolled down, a four to five centimeter scar could be seen.

It's not high-tech to permanently remove scars with today's technology, but Misato Katsuragi couldn't remove it.This is her second collision on the Antarctic continent, and she is the only surviving human being in the Antarctic continent's research institute.When she was rescued, she had a scar on her chest.

And I don’t want to get rid of the scars, I don’t want to forget the past history.

"If you want a drink, you should go down and buy it yourself." Shinji Ikari answered her while standing under the showerhead with his eyes closed.

"Haha, if you drank too, don't accuse me... By the way, when did Asuka leave?"

"I just finished eating." After rinsing thoroughly, Shinji Ikari reached out and turned off the shower.

"Ah, you should try to persuade her to stay. In fact, if you talk about it, you might even move here." Misato Katsuragi smiled secretly.

Although they are under the same roof, Asuka and they are not living together.

The place where I live now is composed of two apartments. The light wall in the middle is opened to connect the spaces of the apartments.But Misato Katsuragi, Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami all live on the east side.

After Asuka arrived later, she claimed the apartment next to the middle apartment, and then called the construction team to open a light wall to connect the three apartments together, but this did not mean that Asuka lived with them. piece.

Even before Asuka arrived, Shinji Ikari and Misato Katsuragi had made a daily schedule. For example, Shinji Ikari would cook on the bright sun day, Misato Katsuragi would clean the room on the bright sun day, and Ayanami Rei would cook on the golden sun day.But with the arrival of Asuka, although she often came over to eat and drink, she had no intention of joining in.

During dinner in the evening, the four of them had different thoughts. Asuka was interrupted by Shinji Ikari as soon as she started worrying about gains and losses, and the two of them chatted about games.Misato Katsuragi was still thinking about the new plan revealed to her by Ritsuko Akagi during the day. The corrosiveness brought by the fetal blood of the uterus angel was too terrifying. She had never seen any apostle with such diverse abilities, but Shinji Ikari But she said that fetal blood is far easier to control than pollution, and the focus of the research is not fetal blood. Then Ayanami Rei came back with beer.

"What do you think is the reason for not moving here?" Misato Katsuragi stretched out her slender left leg from the water and stepped on Shinji Ikari's waist.

"In the past, she probably just didn't want to be on duty, but now she may not be able to save face. In fact, she was a little embarrassed when we were clearing the table after dinner the last few times. She pretended to be calm and sat on the sofa watching TV, but actually she wanted to come up. I'm here to help." Shinji Ikari turned to look at Misato Katsuragi, "You are the landlord, and I need you to invite me. You also know Asuka's shy character. If you wait for Asuka to take the initiative to speak, it is basically impossible."

"Do you want me to invite you?" Misato Katsuragi showed a sly smile of unknown meaning.

"Then do you want me to invite you?" Shinji Ikari asked, then stood up and raised one hand to enter the bathtub.

"Don't be here, Russian doll, answer me directly, Shinji-san." Misato Katsuragi smiled, raised her left foot and stepped on Shinji Ikari's abdomen to prevent him from entering the bathtub, "What do you think if she comes over? Yes. I haven’t thought about anything else…”

"We are all friends, don't say these words that affect unity." Shinji Ikari scolded Misato Katsuragi's frivolous words with a serious expression. He stretched out his hand to move Misato Katsuragi's left leg from his lower abdomen and lay down in the bath. "We don't care. Whatever you do, you must stand from the perspective of the organization and everyone.”

Shinji Ikari squeezed into the bathtub, and a large amount of hot water spread outward from the edge of the white bathtub. Misato Katsuragi instinctively stepped back, but how far could the two-meter bathtub be pushed.A trace of white steam rose from the water, and Katsuragi Misato stretched out a slender leg from the water. It was not because she wanted to stretch out her feet to let them breathe, but because Shinji Ikari never put them down from the beginning.

"Speak according to your conscience... let go, I mean touch your conscience!" Misato Katsuragi looked at Shinji Ikari and smiled with her eyes narrowed.After the matter was over, there was not much hesitation.

"I'm just speaking out of conscience. There's nothing I dare not say or think. Simply put, it's a question of whether I have a sense of responsibility. I'd like to ask you if Asuka is our important partner. You are her guardian. I think Let me ask, is this fair to Asuka, who has worked hard and achieved a lot, but has never been able to integrate into our collective?" Shinji Ikari looked at Misato Katsuragi without fear and spoke his heartfelt words.

"Who in this world doesn't want to live according to their own temperament? But we can't. We don't have the qualifications to be willful. Our spirit must always be healthy."

Sometimes Misato Katsuragi admires Shinji Ikari for being so shameless and how he can say this seriously.No wonder Asuka was pinched tightly by him. If she hadn't pushed him with her hands, she might have stuck to him. However, his face still looked upright, as if they were not in the bathroom now, but Gai Xi. London City Hall, discussing the future of the millions of residents of the Third New Tokyo City.

But when you look into his eyes, you can feel full sincerity, as if he is saying this from the bottom of his heart and will never deceive you.

"You also know that I am the guardian, Shinji Ikari-san." Misato Katsuragi pinched Shinji Ikari's upright little face and showed a sly smile of unknown meaning, "For those who don't know, you are the guardian. Call me mom. Maybe I will agree to you after shouting."

It sounds a bit harsh to say it, but now Shinji Ikari is thinking of Hikaru Toki.Do you want to pay back the crime he committed when he forced her to call her daddy?

"Call mommy, little Shinji, you don't want Asuka to live there alone and be isolated by us." Misato Katsuragi smiled evilly.

The two faces were getting closer and closer. Just when Shinji Ikari thought that it would be okay to make a small sacrifice for the collective, the bathroom door suddenly opened——

Ayanami Rei pushed open the door and walked in. Her body was slender and white.She walked in holding a plastic stool and calmly showed off her beautiful girlish figure to the two people in the bathtub, because perhaps because of her body, her skin was white, giving people an almost transparent ice texture. .

For Rei Ayanami, both Shinji Ikari and Misato Katsuragi can be trusted.She walked directly under the shower head, sat on the plastic stool she brought in, applied shower gel on her body, and rubbed it into bubbles, without caring about the existence of Shinji Ikari and Misato Katsuragi.

Shinji Ikari and Misato Katsuragi looked at each other and smiled awkwardly, their original charm suddenly gone.

--------

The lights at the waiting station went dark, and there was a brief exclamation. After a few seconds, the lights came back on, and the sleepy Shinji Ikari opened his eyes.

The train rumbled on, and the sweet-sounding announcer on the radio said it was just an unexpected power outage, everything was normal, and passengers were asked not to panic.Shinji Ikari glanced at the route display on the door. The next stop was New Tokyo City [-].His destination was Third New Tokyo. Just a week ago, his father, whom he had not seen for several years, called him and asked him to move to Third New Tokyo where he was. Before he could answer, he was stiff. of hanging up the phone.

Shinji Ikari didn't have much impression of New Tokyo City [-]. The first time he heard the name was an Internet rumor that it would become the new capital of Japan.When he received a call from his father, he tried to search for information about Third New Tokyo City on the Internet, but only a superficial layer was found. On the surface, it looked like a patio city. Its location was on the edge of Aiwan, Kanagawa, and Mount Hakone, located near the border of Shizuoka and Shizuoka prefectures, is about two kilometers in diameter.The reason why it is called Tianjing City is that it is rumored that its underground part is far wider than the above-ground part.

Shinji Ikari was very curious about this city. More importantly, his father worked in this city and was rumored to be a very important figure.

Third New Tokyo City, Shinji Ikari felt a very familiar feeling in his heart.It seemed as if he had been to this city before. Shinji Ikari closed his eyes and thought wildly, thinking of the huge purple body and the white giant nailed to the cross. He thought of countless headless giants of different shapes wandering in the red world. The huge female body was like Divided into two, everything under the silver moonlight surged toward the god spreading his wings of light in the sky.

Shinji Ikari was startled. He didn't know how he could have thought of this. It was mythical, crazy and real. It seemed that he had witnessed that mythical scene with his own eyes.Shinji Ikari took a deep breath. He felt a little uneasy about the father he had not seen for several years and the unfamiliar city. However, he still obeyed his father's arrangement and followed the crowd to wait to enter the carriage.

He suddenly froze, and his eyes were firmly caught.Because there was a young man in a white shirt among the crowd a few meters away. He was waiting to board the train in the next car carrying a black backpack. The bag had a circular badge printed on it - half a fig leaf.

But before he could take a closer look at his face, he was pushed into the carriage by the crowd.

The train was dark, and he couldn't see clearly whether it was full of people or empty in the darkness, but he suddenly realized that he was the only one in the entire carriage.I don't know when the crowded crowds and the complicated sounds all disappeared. I always felt that there were still people in the carriage in twos and threes, but now I realized that there was actually no one here.It seemed like everything just now was an illusion.

He was the only one in this subway station from beginning to end.

Following the banging sound in the carriage, Shinji Ikari looked at New Tokyo City in the distance, watching the sunset gradually disappear into the sea.Suddenly, he seemed to remember who he really was.

Some memories and some pictures have special meaning.

For example, the giant red tree growing spirally upward, the red beach, the cross-shaped intersection, the sunlit road, the black gate inscribed with the Kabbalah Tree of Life, the flying white doves, the headless people on the seaside. Statues, a red world.

There was only this carriage that was leading to nowhere, and Shinji Ikari didn't understand what it meant in the dream.

It wasn't until the huge shadow fell from a high place that he suddenly saw the young man sitting opposite in a white shirt and headphones.He was in the shadows, making no sound, holding a very old-fashioned Walkman in his hand, as quiet as a young man who came from afar, waiting for an unknown fate.

Shinji Ikari tentatively waved to him, but the boy ignored him and silently stared at the sunset in a daze. The sun was falling, and in the last light, the boy's figure disappeared like evaporated water.

[-]: The fifth qualified candidate, Shinobu

As the carriage entered the tunnel, light and shadow intertwined, and winds from different directions blew on his cheeks.Just like the moment when an ancient coffin is opened, the dusty air from the long past returns to reality when the coffin is opened.

Life is a flowing landscape, frozen frame by frame, captured in an instant.

Outside the window is the sunset, the city, the blue sea, giant monsters and Ultraman.

At this time, Shinji Ikari couldn't tell whether the train was moving forward or backward. Fine dust danced in the light beam projected from the window.He looked at the scenery outside the window. The original dark black walls gradually peeled off and turned yellow, and the white subway station turned into a quaint platform after the train passed by.The sun is like a virus of time, infecting the entire train.

Suddenly, Shinji Ikari found himself lying in front of the beach, feeling the red water gradually infecting his body with the tide.Above the head is the Milky Way across the sky, symbolizing the ruins of human civilization showing a mottled corner in the shallow sea.On the horizon of the Red Sea in the distance, a huge human face is slowly collapsing and sinking to the bottom of the sea. A long and narrow red line is revealed in the giant white moon hanging from the dome.

The boy and girl lie in front of the beach, like the original Adam and Eve, with no color in their empty eyes.

Suddenly he turned his face to the side and saw Asuka lying next to him covered with bandages.

He slowly sat on her body, squeezed out his last strength, and pinched her neck hard.

---------

Above the blue sea, all the familiar figures were floating in the air, smiling and applauding around him.

"Congratulations!" Misato Katsuragi smiled and clapped.

"Congratulations!" Asuka smiled and clapped.

"Congratulations!" Ayanami smiled and clapped.

"Congratulations!" Ritsuko Akagi smiled and clapped.

"Reduce Q coins!" Penguin applauded.

---------

Only the remaining rotten nails remained on the dry cross, and the decapitated giant stone statue stood above the shallow sea in the posture of a victim.

The universe is empty and the world is lonely.

Four billion bright stars flew out of his palms, fell to the ground and restored themselves to independent individuals.

Nagisa Kaoru's gentle voice came to my ears. Human beings forget their stupidity and repeat their mistakes. If we atone for our sins on our own, people will change. However, we cannot rely on the power of Adam or the apostles. We must change the future with our hands.

----------

[Even if only one person survives, it will be very lonely, but that will be proof of the existence of mankind. 】

[Without light and water, humans will disappear, but EVA will exist forever. 】

Ikari Wei, who was holding the baby, smiled. As the scene turned, the purple Unit-[-] was floating in space, gradually heading towards the more distant and dark cold universe.

The hands of the clock will never go back to where they were before, but things can be done on your own.

----------

"Today I would like to introduce a transfer student to you," Misato Katsuragi, the head teacher of Class A of the second grade, showed a sly smile, "Boys, cheers, today's transfer student is a very cute girl."

"I'm Rei Ayanami, please give me some advice." Misato Katsuragi took the initiative to leave the podium, revealing a cheerful girl with blue hair and red eyes behind her. However, as the girl and the boy in the audience made eye contact, both sides screamed.

"Ah, you are the bad guy who peeked at my fat chicken this morning!" Ayanami Rei pointed at Shinji Ikari and yelled.

"Wait, don't talk nonsense!" Asuka, her childhood sweetheart, stood up and said, "You voluntarily let Shinji see it!"

"Huh? Who are you, so anxious to defend this idiot? Who are you!" Ayanami Rei looked at the blond Asuka suspiciously. It was obvious that the person involved had not spoken yet. What happened to this inexplicable foreign girl? .

"We're just childhood sweethearts out of interest! You're very verbose! Transfer student!"

----------

It was a scene like the end of the world. A flaming aircraft wing fiercely fell from the sky to the exhibition dome, and the debris with sparks flew everywhere like flowers.There were people screaming and fleeing everywhere. Shinji Ikari stood in the middle of the road, looking at the giant creature in the distance.

A giant thing bigger than anything appeared before our eyes, countless times bigger than the largest dinosaur in ancient times!Godzilla, the King of Titans, has a dark brown skin color and stern red vertical pupils that resemble the skin of a tree, and standing in front of him is an equally huge giant of light.

"How can Ultraman alone save this earth that is on the verge of destruction? Human beings must solve their own problems!" A strange voice sounded from behind him.

Shinji Ikari turned around and saw a man riding a motorcycle. He took off his motorcycle helmet, revealing an unconventional explosive hairstyle.

"Who are you?" Shinji Ikari asked the other party's identity.

"I'm just a passing Kamen Rider, remember it for me!"

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

"Look at the sky! There's a big hole in the root of the tree!"

This cry echoed clearly in the command post which was busy conducting post-confirmation of the new NERV.

As soon as the command post switched the panoramic surveillance camera screen to the main monitor, they confirmed a large, endless hole in the roots of the World Tree that covered the entire sky in a mesh.

"He was burned through by those wings...the final impact of the karmic fire..." Dongyue groaned.

Reports of massive salinization followed, with people turning into pillars of salt again.

"We are witnessing the birth of a myth, and something of this magnitude will happen."

"The official opinion is that it's better not to say that."

…………

…………

The blue wind continued to blow forward, and countless different world lines appeared in front of Shinji Ikari's eyes like movies being released at the same time.For this train, the tunnel ahead is as complex as a spider web, and the corridor is still long every time it turns a corner.Various possibilities flooded into Shinji Ikari's mind.

It's not a hallucination or a dream, it's something that really happened.

As for myself, am I an independent person, or am I just a drop in the ocean of the group called Shinji Ikari?

Following the sound reminder of the arrival of the train, Shinji Ikari also saw the white light shining again at the end of the tunnel.He picked up his schoolbag and stood up from his seat. The boy who was sitting opposite him disappeared. The moment the train passed through the tunnel, all his will was swallowed up by the daylight.

Shinji Ikari opened his eyes again and breathed out the air from the real world.

——Slimy.

The first experience that brought Shinji Ikari was this.

Shinji Ikari tried to raise his head, but the result was failure.There was a power outage in the room at some point. Although the emergency call came again, the air conditioner that had stopped would not automatically start running.

This also caused the people who were originally hugging each other to separate from each other in disgust. However, because Katsuragi Misato likes to sleep and hold things, she was held in her arms again, but the posture had changed.

Shinji Ikari wanted to break away the right hand holding his neck, but he felt someone touching his cheek.

"Are you having a nightmare?" Misato Katsuragi's voice sounded from above.
