NieR: Whirlpool

Ye Feng closed the door gently and turned to walk towards the room on the other side of the camp.

There, 11B was quietly waiting for him.

open the door,

11B is sitting at the table.

Holding a worn circuit board in his hand, he examined it carefully.

I heard the door open,

She raised her head.

Seeing that it was Ye Feng, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Then he quickly lowered his head.

He continued to fiddle with the circuit board in his hand, as if trying to hide his emotions.

"What are you looking at?"

Ye Feng walked to 11B and asked softly.

"No...nothing."

11B's voice was a little flustered.

"It's just a broken circuit board. Let me see if I can fix it."

Ye Feng smiled, he knew 11B was lying.

He recognized this circuit board, which was damaged in the previous battle.

It had long been judged to be beyond repair and was abandoned in a warehouse.

11B must have been picked up secretly.

Ye Feng sighed softly and sat down next to 11B.

11B's hands trembled slightly.

She didn't say anything, but just silently folded her hands on her lower abdomen.

for a long time.

“I’m really bad…”

Hearing 11B's words, Ye Feng slowly raised his head and listened to her continue.

"You have been helping me all along."

"And I watched you get executed and your memory wiped time and time again, and I was powerless to do anything."

"I can't protect you..."

"I am really useless in front of your enemies..."

She spoke calmly, her relieved tone suppressing her excitement.

"Silly girl, those things are in the past."

Ye Feng reached out and gently stroked 11B's hair.

"Besides, I'm back safe and sound, right?"

"But...but I..." 11B raised her head, tears welling in her eyes, "I thought you would never come back...I..."

"I know, I know." Ye Feng gently hugged 11B into his arms, "I know you are worried about me, and I miss you too."

"Then why...why did you do such a dangerous thing?" 11B's voice was filled with tears. "Do you know that we are all very worried about you?"

"Because...some things have to be done by someone." Ye Feng said softly, "Besides, I believe I can do it."

He paused and continued: "Besides, I am not fighting alone, I have you too."

"us?"

11B raised his head and looked at Ye Feng in confusion.

"Yes, you guys." Ye Feng smiled, "Each of you is my strongest support."

"Me...me too?" 11B's voice trembled a little.

"of course."

Ye Feng nodded.

"You, A2, 2B, 9S... every one of you is very important to me."

"So... do you like us?"

11B mustered up the courage to ask,

Her cheeks flushed slightly and her eyes were full of anticipation.

Ye Feng was stunned.

He didn't expect 11B to ask such a direct question.

He looked at 11B's clear eyes and felt a tenderness in his heart.

"I like it, of course I do."

Ye Feng said softly,

"I like every one of you."

"Then... who do you like the most?" 11B asked.

Her heart beat faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

Ye Feng was silent. He didn't know how to answer this question.

He likes 11B.

I also like A2.

And 2B,

There are even 9S, 11S...

Each of them holds an important place in his heart.

He couldn't compare them.

"I..." Ye Feng opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"I understand." 11B said suddenly, her eyes dimmed.

"Your favorite... is A2, right?"

"I..." Ye Feng wanted to explain, but was interrupted by 11B.

"It's okay." 11B forced a smile. "I know I can't compare to her... I just... I just want to know how you feel..."

"Besides, you are a human being, and I am just a machine..."

"11B, listen to me..." Ye Feng was a little anxious. He didn't want 11B to misunderstand.

"No need to explain, I understand." 11B shook her head. "You don't need to explain, I know everything."

She stood up, turned and walked towards the door.

"11B!" Ye Feng called her.

11B stopped but did not look back.

"I like you." Ye Feng said, "I really like you."

11B's body trembled slightly. She slowly turned around and looked at Ye Feng, her eyes full of disbelief.

"What...what did you say?" she asked softly, her voice trembling a little.

"I said, I like you."

Ye Feng repeated, his eyes firm and sincere,

"I like your innocence, your daring, and everything about you."

"But...but don't you like A2 the most?" 11B still couldn't believe it.

"I like A2, and I like you too."

Ye Feng said,

"It's not a conflict."

"But……"

"No buts."

Ye Feng walked to 11B and gently held her face.

11B, look at me. "

11B looked up.

Looking at Ye Feng's deep eyes, her heart beat faster and faster.

"I like you, it's true."

Ye Feng said affectionately,

"I don't know how to explain it, but I know that you are in my heart."

"Ye Feng..."

11B burst into tears.

She could no longer control her emotions and threw herself into Ye Feng's arms, hugging him tightly.

"Thank you...thank you for liking me..." she said chokingly.

"Silly, I should be the one thanking you."

Ye Feng patted her back gently and said softly,

"Thank you for always being by my side, thank you for loving me."

The two hugged each other tightly.

a long time,

11B reluctantly raised her head from Ye Feng's embrace.

Her eyes were still red, but they were full of happiness and satisfaction.

"9...Ye Feng, will you...leave us in the future?" she asked softly, her voice full of anxiety and worry.

"Not anymore."

Ye Feng shook his head.

"I promise that I will never leave you again."

"really?"

"Really." Ye Feng nodded, "I will always be with you, forever."

"Ok!"

11B nodded vigorously, a bright smile on her face.

Ye Feng looked at her beautiful smiling face, his heart filled with happiness and satisfaction.

He gently lowered his head and kissed 11B on the forehead.

"Can you coax me to sleep for a while?" She whispered in Ye Feng's ear.

"It's what you wish for!"

Ye Feng agreed with a smile.

He gently picked up 11B and walked to the bed.

11B's cheeks flushed and her heart was beating like a drum.

She hugged Ye Feng's neck tightly and buried her head in his chest.

Ye Feng gently placed 11B on the bed and was about to cover her with the quilt.

Ye Feng's hand was grabbed by 11B.

The two people's eyes intertwined.

"Accompany me..."

A night of silence,

The only sounds were the creaking of the bed and the sound of gasps.
