"You don't need to apologize, since you sprained your ankle, let me take a look for you?"

Noshiro's delicate body is very soft, but Leon has no habit of taking advantage of others' dangers. Seeing Noshiro frowning slightly, Leon asked Noshiro with a concerned face.

"Hmm... But, I might not be able to see clearly here, why don't we change places? It's still too late to go back the way we came..."

Gently nodded, Nodai took advantage of Leon's body to stand on the spot with his other leg, lifted his sprained foot slightly, and then said to Leon helplessly .

"Are you sure you want to go back the same way?"

Although Noyo didn't say it, Leon could still feel the sense of loss in Noyo's words.

After all, before this, Noshiro promised himself that he would take him to experience the summer festival, but now... this most critical step cannot be completed.

"Well, that's the only way to do it now, sorry, let's do it next time... ah!"

With a bitter expression on his face, Nodai lowered his head and continued to talk to Leon, but before Nodai finished speaking, she felt a whirlwind again.

"Le... Leon!?"

Noshiro did not expect that he would be hugged by Leon in the way of a princess, with a hint of panic in his eyes, Noshiro just met Leon's gaze directly.

"Noshiro, sometimes... if you miss something, you may never get it back. You should really want to watch the fireworks show tonight, right?"

"Well...but..."

Looking at Leon with a serious face, Noshiro didn't know what to say for a while, and at the same time, her heart was beating violently.

This... what kind of feeling is this...feeling myself...so weird...

"It's okay, I have more physical strength, and it's more than enough to hold you up, but...you have to protect my apple candy, that's the first apple candy I ate!"

Journey to Cherry Blossoms: Chapter 227 This is what you said, Sister Amagi! (65, 66)

"Huh? I...I see."

Leon's words stunned Noshiro for a moment, and then Noshiro tightened his grip on the stick with apple candy in his hand.

The place where Noyo said can be found along this path, and after walking with Noyo for a while, Leon finally arrived at the destination of the two.

The scenery here is really good. Looking down, Leon can even see the festival booths below. The place where the fireworks are set off is not far away. This is indeed a good location.

"Here, here is the cushion I prepared, let's sit under that tree."

Seeing Leon coming up with him in his arms, Noshiro took out a cushion from his ship space.

Taking Noshiro's mat for himself, Leon hugged Noshiro with one hand, and spread the mat on the grass with the other hand.

Putting Noshiro slowly on the mat, Leon let out a long sigh of relief.

There was a very fragrant smell on Noshiro's body, even if she was put down, Leon could still smell the fragrance from his own hand, subconsciously put his hand on his nose, Leon quietly Take a breath.

However, his action was still seen by Noshiro, his face flushed slightly, and Noshiro quietly turned his head away.

"Which foot is twisted? Let me take a look for you."

The moonlight here allows Leon to see Noshiro's feet clearly, and squatting down, Leon asked Noshiro with concern.

"...the right foot."

Noshiro was still thinking about Leon's previous actions in his mind. Hearing Leon's inquiry, Noshiro carefully put back his good foot.

"That... I'm sorry."

Noshiro's actions had already tacitly agreed to Leon to help her heal. He put on the gloves he carried with him, and then Leon carefully took off the clogs that Noshiro was wearing on his feet.

"Well!"

Although Leon was wearing gloves, but... when Leon's hand touched his feet, Noshiro subconsciously called out.

With a strong sense of shame, Noshiro immediately covered his lips with his hands, his little face flushed, and Noshiro silently looked at Leon who was gently stroking his ankle.

Well... what a strange feeling!

Like Noshiro, Leon is also enduring that strong desire in his heart. Noshiro's feet are so beautiful, just looking at this foot, Leon can't help but caress and play with it carefully.

But...he can't do that, he's taking advantage of others, Noshiro trusts himself so much...

You have to take a corresponding attitude yourself.

Taking a deep breath, Leon corrected his mentality. Since Noshiro's ankle is sprained, then he just needs to pay attention to the place where Noshiro's sprained foot is.

"is it here?"

After groping for a while, Leon found the place where Noshiro had a problem, nodded slightly, and Noshiro just kept staring at Leon.

Seeing that Noshiro nodded, Leon also began to slowly use his ability. This kind of problem is as simple as repairing the ship's equipment. After a while, Noshiro felt that his feet were almost healed.

"How? How do you feel?"

Feeling that the problem was almost solved, Leon raised his head to look at Noshiro again, and retracted his hand, then Leon stood up and pulled Noshiro up from the mat.

"Well... I can walk normally now, thank you."

Putting on the clogs and taking two steps on the ground, Noshiro said with a happy face, but what was more shocking in her heart.

Is this... the power to help Shinano-sama regain his strength?

With such a fast repair ability, wouldn't it allow everyone to fight the Sirens without damage?

"It's okay, it's okay, this is my strong point, as long as your feet recover."

He waved his hand at Noshiro indifferently, and Leon just sat down on the mat. He used some abilities just now, and he is a little tired now.

Seeing the slightly tired Leon, Noshiro took off his clogs and sat next to him again. Immediately afterwards, she took out the apple candy she had been keeping.

"Speaking of... which of these two candies is mine?"

Looking at the apple candy Noshiro held in his hand, Leon became confused for a while, the two had eaten to the same extent before, and what happened just now...

He no longer knows which one is his.

"Well...it should be this."

After pondering for a moment, Noyo handed one of the candy apples to Leon.

Seeing Noshiro's confident expression, Leon took it over.

But... Noshiro actually doesn't know which one belongs to her. She put all the candies in one hand when she sprained her ankle just now. Now...she can't tell the difference, she can only guess by intuition .

After taking a small bite of the candy apple, Leon began to chew slowly, and then he looked at Noshiro with some doubts.

"Why do I think... this candy is sweeter than the one just now?"

"Hmm... I feel the same way, maybe... because we got the sweetest part?"

Noshiro also had the same feeling as Leon at this time, nodded silently, Noshiro opened his cherry mouth again and took a bite of the candy apple.

"Really..."

Looking at Noshiro thoughtfully, Leon took another bite of the candy in his hand, but...

He felt as if he had guessed something.

"Speaking of which, after a while...you will also go out to perform missions."

After a long silence, Noshiro spoke again and said to Leon. Hearing Noshiro's words, Leon nodded silently.

"Yeah, maybe this is the last time I enjoy this year, but... No and Noh are here to watch the fireworks show for you, and my summer festival is complete."

With a smile on his face, Leon ate all the candy apples in his hand, and threw the stick into the trash bag, Leon sighed faintly.

"Me too, today...I had a great time."

Smiling at Leon, Noshiro also ate all the candy apples in his hand, leaned against the tree trunk and looked at the sky like Leon, and slowly stretched out his hands in the air.

"It is said that if you make a wish when the fireworks are first lifted into the sky, there is a great possibility that this wish will be realized. Let's try it later, shall we?"

"Oh? There is another saying?"

Noshiro's words aroused Leon's interest, but... this should be just a legend spread by everyone for auspiciousness.

"Yes, but you can't say it when you make a wish~ When the time comes... Hurry up! Leon, the fireworks are about to rise into the sky! Let's hurry up and make a wish!"

Just when Noh explained this to Leon, the fireworks display of the summer festival officially started.

Seeing the fireworks slowly rising into the sky not far away, Noshiro quickly stretched out his hand and patted Leon on the shoulder.

Putting his palms together like Noshiro, Leon silently made a wish in his heart, although it was just metaphysics, but...

He still hoped that his mission this time could go smoothly.

"Huh~ In this way, the wish we made should also come true~"

Seeing the fireworks continuously rising into the air, Noshiro let out a long sigh of relief. Then, she curled up her legs, hugged her crooked calf with her arms, and turned her head to look at Leon.

"Yeah, maybe, but, can this wish really not be said?"

"Of course, it won't work if you say it, but...the next time I see you, I don't know when it will be..."

Turning her head to look at the fireworks in the sky, Noshiro gently closed her eyes. For some reason, she felt her heart was a little confused.

"I don't know, maybe it's the end of the year, maybe I'll be back in a month or two, but... I definitely want to go back to Shige Sakura, after all... I have to send Akagi and the others back." .”

"Really? Then... when you come back next time, can we... sit here like this?"

After thinking about it, Noshiro still said this sentence, and after finishing speaking, she quietly observed Leon with her peripheral vision.

"No problem at all."

Leon naturally noticed Noshiro's small movements, turned his head and looked at Noshiro with a smile on his face, and then Leon said to Noshiro with a firm tone.

"...Well, then I'll wait for you."

Leon's gaze made Noshiro feel a little shy again, he turned his head around quietly, and Noshiro answered Leon in a low voice.

The brilliant fireworks lit up the entire night sky. Looking up at the fireworks in the sky, Noshiro felt...

My mood of appreciating fireworks today is very different from the past.

......

a few days later.

Tomorrow is the day when Leon and the others set off for the polar seas. Frederick also told them the specific itinerary two days ago.

They need to take a boat to the northern joint base closest to Sakura, where Soviet Belaros will receive them.

Immediately afterwards, Soviet Belaros will take them to the Soviet Union, and then the people of the Northern United will take them to the polar sea where the lost fleet is located.

However, before Leon leaves, he has to meet Tiancheng again.

This meeting was requested by Amagi, but... this was also the last time Leon treated Amagi during this time.

This time, he's going to use all his strength, and he hasn't taken revenge for what Tiancheng cheated on him last time.

He reached out and knocked on Tiancheng's door, and after a while, Leon saw Tiancheng in a pajamas.

"You are here, come in quickly."

Smiling at Leon, Amagi opened the door and let Leon walk into the room. The layout of the room was still familiar, and the two familiar teacups were still on the table.

"You're leaving tomorrow, have you got everything ready?"

Pushing the teacup in front of Leon, Tiancheng said to Leon with earnest words.

"Well, everything is ready, Akagi and the others have already packed up the salute, and Akashi has also completed the preparation of the ship."

Silently took a sip of tea, and then Leon slowly said to Tiancheng.

Akagi and the others are very interested in this matter, for them...it's like going on a trip with Leon.

"That's good, but...you should also know the characters of Chicheng and the others, and you should also be familiar with Prince Eugen and the others, so...if something bad happens, please bear with me. "

As the older sister of Akagi and the others, Amagi was still quite worried about whether Akagi and Prince Eugen could get along in harmony. Hearing what Akagi said, Leon chuckled lightly.

"That's natural. Akagi and the others are my wives, and Prince Eugen and the others have the same bond with me, so... I will take care of this matter."

Since he wants to be a commander, properly handling the relationship between ship girls is also a skill that he needs to learn. This time is also a good opportunity.

"That's right, I'm worrying too much. The relationship between you is not what it used to be, but... because of this relationship, the things you go through may be much more troublesome than before~"

Smiling at Leon, Tiancheng slowly took off the pajamas he was wearing, and then, Tiancheng lay down on the table slowly.

"Come on, I may not feel that healing feeling again for some time in the future, today...can you help me heal for a while longer?"

There was a hint of pleading tone in Amagi's words, looking at Amagi with a sincere face, Leon nodded silently.
