hero?it must be me

"Then, Mr. Zheng Qi, have you guys made the same preparations?"

"...He will not be the opponent of that blood knight after all."

"is it?"

Looking out the window, Viviana's eyes drooped slightly.

[I have never devoted myself to Casimir's rules. From the very beginning, you have stepped into my field. 】

[It is you who devote themselves to the rules. 】

The man's calm face as if telling the fact that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and the voice as if declaring something for granted, echoed in the girl's mind.

If we say, in her eyes, Margaret's visit is like a poem.

That, that man, is like...

(If, indeed, it's in your rules, maybe...)

Her finger slid gently along the glass window.

As if wanting to touch the sunlight outside the window, caressing the residual warmth of sunlight remaining on the glass.

(If possible, I would rather join in your rules, Mr. Zheng Qi.)

-

"Doctor, Mr. Zheng Qi introduced by Miss Linguang is here!"

Just after answering the call from the front desk, the petite Carters girl turned around and spoke to the hooded man who was sitting on the sofa flipping through a newspaper.

"Huh? Are you here?"

The mysterious hooded man known as the Doctor put down the newspaper.

It's not without reason to call him that doctor.

Who made the doctor's whole body wrapped tightly, and even his face was hidden in a face-covered helmet. He was clearly in the room, but he still read the newspaper with such a thing. If her voice was not obviously softer, I am afraid that even Gender is hard to define.

Of course, voice fraud is not excluded.

In short, after hearing the words of the girl Carters, she was obviously refreshed.

"Amiya, go and talk to Miss Li, or she will stop her later and cause a misunderstanding."

"Ah, good!"

The Carters girl named Amiya started to move around in a hurry, and went to the door of the suite. When she opened the door, she saw Shi, who was waiting in the corridor.

This Miss Li is a fourth-order combat knight assigned by the Grand Knight Commander in charge of welcoming Rhode Island, Ms. Ioletta Russell, and is responsible for protecting the personal safety of Amiya and the doctor.

"What are your orders? Miss Amiya?"

Seeing Amiya coming out, she seemed to have expected it, and asked with a smile.

"Miss Li, a visitor from Rhodes Island will come later."

"Oh?"

Rubble asked, "Is there any feature that I should pay attention to?"

"No, there's no need, I'll wait with you! Lin--you'll recognize him when we meet officially! He's a gentleman with obvious features!"

"That's it."

Li didn't say anything to her, but just nodded.

The two of them waited together in the corridor.

After about twenty seconds passed, the long ears on the top of Amiya's head moved, and Carters' excellent hearing made her notice the sound of footsteps approaching.

Li, who is good at reconnaissance, also noticed it.

The two looked at the end of the corridor in unison.

Not long after, a figure appeared in front of the two of them.

"Really, you are a very conspicuous gentleman..."

Amiya muttered in a daze.

Li narrowed his eyes slightly, but the smile on his face remained unchanged.

After seeing Amiya and Li standing in the corridor, Zheng Qi walked straight over.

"I am Zheng Qi, you... which one is the doctor and which one is Amiya?"

Zheng Qi stared at the two girls in confusion.

He could tell that the more mature Zarak should be a type who is good at close combat. Although he is relatively petite, he may be very experienced.

On the other side, the Carters girl...

Zheng Qi frowned.

In his field of vision, the figure of the other party is always a little... in a trance?

This subtle visual response lasted only a short moment.

But Zheng Qi remembered this scene.

He didn't think it would be his own vertigo.

"You, hello!"

Looking at Zheng Qi who suddenly made the originally spacious passage crowded, Amiya raised her face and couldn't help raising her voice, as if she was worried that her voice was too small to be heard by Zheng Qi.

"I am Amiya! Nice to meet you! Mr. Zheng Qi!"

"This is Ms. Li, who was appointed by the Grand Knight Commander to temporarily serve as the doctor's and me's guard."

"Hello, Mr. Zheng Qi who has been in the limelight recently."

Ruby smiled and waved his hand.

"...Hello."

After Zheng Qi's eyes stayed on Li for a second, he looked at Amiya again: "Then, where is the doctor?"

"The doctor is in the room, waiting for a long time! Please follow me!"

Chapter 213 Chapter 43: Swordsman Tower, I'm here to negotiate terms

Following the little girl named Amiya into the room, followed by Li, who was always smiling, Zheng Qi saw the person sitting behind a desk at a glance.

I saw the man sitting upright, with his upper body leaning forward slightly, his hands resting on the table for support, and his palms resting on...

Uh, is it where the nose is?

Zheng Qi couldn't tell.

The other party's chic hooded and helmeted attire, if Zheng Qi hadn't noticed a rather eager gaze, it would have been difficult to judge whether the other party was asleep or awake at the moment.

One thing to say, this dress is very suitable for fishing.

You don't need to try your best to cover your eyes to avoid exposure like Zheng Qi's deskmate in high school.

"Doctor, this is Mr. Zheng Qi!"

The girl Carters has a soft voice, making people think that she is like a dandelion growing on the edge of a mountain.

"Hey... are you here?"

Hearing the other party's voice, Zheng Qi was a little surprised.

On the way here, Margaret introduced him some things about Rhodes Island.

In fact, when he saw Amiya, he was already a little surprised.

According to Margaret, although the leader of Rhodes Island is still young, he is already an excellent leader who has experienced many ups and downs.

However, Zheng Qi did not expect that the so-called "still young" would be so young.

At first glance, Zheng Qi felt that Amiya might not be as old as him.

This is subtle.

Even though he and Jotaro had traveled around the world, Zheng Qi is actually not more than twenty years old now.

The leader of a large institution with a complete and powerful independent force is a child under 20 years old.

... Is this also common sense in this land?

Zheng Qi could not analyze this conclusion from Xinteliya's memory.

But he didn't immediately have a bad impression of Rhodes Island because of this.

Perhaps, that doctor whose position is an assistant, but who is actually one of the core of the operation center of Rhodes Island, will be a wise and kind old man?

It is not surprising that the old brings the new, a very common training model.

——Zheng Qi thought so at the last second before meeting the doctor in person.

however……

Zheng Qi looked at the doctor with some confusion.

In his field of vision, there was not a single trace of filth on the doctor's body.

Dirty here does not mean dust or water stains.

It refers to the afterimage of the dead.

It doesn't matter whether the behavior is correct or not, as long as the deceased had a relatively strong emotion towards the person who killed him when he passed away, it could be hatred, confusion, anger...or even love.

As long as there is such an emotion, when the dead leave the world of the living, that emotion will be entangled with the subject in the form of an afterimage.

Zheng Qi could see this.

From the perspective of Zheng Qi, most of these afterimages will appear in a black and green muddy posture like fog or mud.

Along the way, in this world, he has seen this in many people.

According to the information about Rhodes Island in Xintraya's memory, Zheng Qi originally thought that even if the doctor's body was not full of filth, it should at least be of some scale.

He never thought that he would see such a spotless scene.

It was as if telling Zheng Qi that the person in front of him was like a newborn baby...

Or, it has been forgiven by everyone who died because of him.

... No matter which one, Zheng Qi thinks it is impossible.

but……

Zheng Qi blinked, and returned to the field of vision that ordinary people can watch.

"What's your name?"

"Just call me Doctor, Mr. Zheng Qi."

"Then just call me Zheng Qi."

Zheng Qi glanced at Li, who had already walked to the doctor's side.

"Is it popular with you to shake hands?"

"As you like."

"Forget it, Miss Amiya, you don't need to prepare tea for me, thank you."

With that said, Zheng Qi walked to the sofa facing the doctor and sat down.

"The next thing I want to talk to you about, I hope to talk to you only, is that okay?"

As soon as this remark came out, Amiya subconsciously glanced at Li.

The doctor didn't respond.

Li lowered his eyes and bowed respectfully: "Do whatever you want, doctor."

This is undoubtedly a somewhat dangerous choice.

Amiya didn't make a sound, she looked at the doctor with some worry.

After a moment of silence, the doctor finally opened his mouth: "Miss Li, please go outside and wait for a while."
