NieR: Whirlpool

"Although they are enemies, they are real soldiers."

After hanging up the call, Ye Feng sighed softly.

Prime's Choice,

He felt both regret and admiration.

For the future of artificial humans,

Not hesitating to sacrifice oneself, this kind of determination and responsibility,

He is truly worthy of the title of “Commander-in-Chief of the Human Army”.

just,

Ultimately, he took the wrong path, was exploited by the shadow, and became a tragic figure.

Ye Feng turned to look at White,

There was still a faint smile on her face, and her eyes were full of satisfaction and relief.

"The commander-in-chief..." White hesitated and finally just shook his head slightly.

"He has made his choice."

Ye Feng's voice was very light, with a hint of complicated emotions.

"We should respect his ideas."

White nodded, she understood what Ye Feng meant.

Although Prem betrayed them,

But he finally chose to protect the future of artificial humans in his own way.

"Let's go, we have more important things to do."

Ye Feng patted White on the shoulder and walked out of the command room first.

White followed closely behind.

The two walked side by side, their light footsteps echoing in the corridor.

"report!"

A guard ran over hurriedly and saluted Ye Feng and White.

"2B and 9S have woken up!"

"Really?!" Ye Feng and White looked at each other.

They both saw surprise and excitement in each other's eyes.

"Hurry! Take us there!" Ye Feng said impatiently.

The guard immediately turned around and walked quickly towards the research center with Ye Feng and White.

Along the way, Ye Feng felt a little complicated.

He was looking forward to meeting 2B and 9S, but also a little nervous.

he knows,

I have a special feeling for 2B.

But 9S is his best friend and 2B's official partner.

“A gentleman helps others achieve their goals…”

Ye Feng muttered to himself, he didn't want to separate 2B and 9S,

But deep down in my heart, there is an irresistible desire.

"A hypocrite is also a gentleman..."

Ye Feng smiled self-deprecatingly.

quickly,

They came to the scientific research center, that special laboratory.

Ye Feng took a deep breath.

After calming down his excitement, he pushed the door and walked in.

However, the scene before him made him freeze in place for a moment.

9S, who had just woken up, was hugging 21O tightly.

He buried his head in her chest and rubbed it continuously, seeming very excited.

"Fuck! You stole from my house!" Ye Feng blurted out, his voice full of shock and...anger?

Hearing Ye Feng's shout,

2B and 9S turned around at the same time.

"Mr. Ye Feng?" 9S turned his head with some confusion.

"No..." 2B's body stiffened slightly, and she turned around slowly.

Those originally indifferent eyes were now filled with shock and disbelief.

Her lips trembled slightly.

"9...M..."

2S was stunned when he heard 9B's words.

Suddenly I seemed to remember something.

"9M!"

As he said this, he broke free from his elder sister's embrace without hesitation.

Tears sparkled in my eyes,

Run forward,

He hugged Ye Feng tightly, his body trembling slightly.

His voice was choked with uncontrollable excitement and joy:

"9M...it's really you...I'm glad to see you again...so glad..."

As he spoke, he held Ye Feng's face with both hands and looked left and right.

At the same time, I am also sorting out my own memories.

He remembered what happened three years ago and couldn't help feeling deeply moved.

"Do you want me to hit you? Let me go. I'm not gay!"

Ye Feng was hugged tightly by 9S.

I got goosebumps all over my body.

He pushed 9S hard, his face full of disgust, and he kept yelling:

"Let me go! I'm not interested in men!"

“9M…” 9S was unwilling to let go.

He hooked his arm around Ye Feng's neck tightly.

The whole person was hanging on Ye Feng.

Tears and snot all rubbed onto Ye Feng's clothes.

"I...I thought I would never see you again..."

"Ahem..." Ye Feng was almost suffocating because of 9S's strangulation.

He patted 9S's back hard.

"Hurry... let go... I'm suffocating..."

2B stood aside.

Looking at this "touching" scene in front of him, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

She was originally quite excited, but now her excitement was diluted a lot by the antics of the two men.

"9S, let go of 9M first."

2B's voice remained cold, but there was a hint of helplessness in her tone, "He's in a human body now."

After hearing 2B's words, 9S reluctantly let go of her hand.

He raised his head and wiped his tears with his sleeve.

He looked at Ye Feng a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, 9M, I'm too excited..."

"Okay, okay, I know you're excited."

Ye Feng glared at 9S unhappily and straightened his wrinkled clothes.

"Be more careful next time. Don't make such moves that it seems like I have something with you."

"9M..." 9S wanted to say something but was interrupted by Ye Feng.

"Okay, let's talk about old times later."

Ye Feng waved his hand and looked at 2B.

"2B, what about you? Did you miss me?"

As he spoke,

He even winked at 2B.

Make an expression that says "Come and praise me".

2B looked at Ye Feng's appearance.

The corner of the eye twitched slightly.

She held her forehead and turned her head away.

No answer to Ye Feng's question.

"Tch, that's really boring."

Ye Feng curled his lips and sighed in disappointment.

But he knew in his heart that 2B was shy.

He turned his head and looked at 9S who was still looking up at him, with a mischievous smile on his face:

"9S, you are so lucky. As soon as you woke up, a beautiful woman threw herself at you."

"Huh?" 9S was stunned, and then he realized that he was holding 21O.

Her cheeks flushed slightly, "Um... I just... just..."

He hesitated for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Greetings...

Gradually,

The atmosphere suddenly became frozen

9S seems to have some idea.

He smiled slightly, gave 21O a look, and the two of them left quietly.

Only Ye Feng and 2B were left in the room.

Face to face.

"Long time no see, 2B."

Ye Feng suppressed the waves in his heart and seemed very calm.

"9M..."

2B's voice was soft and trembling.

There is also a subtle hint of...grievance?

Ye Feng's heart skipped a beat.

He looked at 2B, her delicate face filled with mixed emotions.

There is the joy of reunion, the relief of recovering what was lost, and... deep attachment.

"cough……"

Ye Feng coughed lightly, trying to hide his inner panic.

He smiled casually.

"What's wrong, 2B? Am I not handsome anymore when you look at me like that?"

2B didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.

Those clear eyes seemed to have thousands of words to say.

Ye Feng felt a little uncomfortable when she looked at him.

He scratched his head.

"Um...2B, are you...are you okay?"

"Ah."

2B nodded slightly, her voice still soft.

"What about you?"

"Me?" Ye Feng pointed at himself.

"Do I look like I'm in trouble? I'm..."

He wanted to say "I am the protagonist".

But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

"That's good." 2B's voice was filled with relief.

She lowered her eyes slightly to hide the fleeting disappointment in her eyes.

Ye Feng felt a sharp pain in his heart.

he knows,

2B must have a lot to say to herself, but she chose to remain silent.

"2B..."

Ye Feng took a deep breath.

He wanted to say something, but didn't know how to start.

He wanted to tell 2B,

I miss her very much.

He missed her all the time.

He wanted to tell her that his feelings for her had already surpassed the boundaries of friendship.

However, he can't.

He can't be so selfish.

He knows about 9S's feelings for 2B, and he also knows about 2B's feelings for 9S.

They are an official couple, a destined couple.

I cannot destroy their happiness just because of my own selfish desires.

“A gentleman helps others achieve their goals…”

Ye Feng silently recited these words in his heart.

He tried hard to suppress the impulse in his heart and forced himself to smile.

"2B, I'm relieved to see that you're okay."

2B looked up.

Looking at Ye Feng, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.

He seemed to not understand why Ye Feng suddenly became so... distant.

"9M..."

2B called his name softly.

She wanted to ask him why he didn't hug her?

Why don’t you give me that...gentle smile like you used to?

But, she didn't ask in the end.

She knew that Ye Feng had his own difficulties, but she just didn't understand.

She understands Ye Feng.

He is a kind person, someone who would rather get hurt himself than hurt others.

"2B, let's... let's get out of here."

Ye Feng's voice was a little hoarse.

He didn't dare look into 2B's eyes again, he was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions.

"Ah."

2B nodded slightly.

She followed Ye Feng silently and walked out of the laboratory.

The two walked side by side in the corridor, neither of them spoke.

The atmosphere was a little depressing and awkward.

The only sound in the corridor was the scraping of shoes on the floor.

Ye Feng's heart was in a mess.

He felt like an acrobat walking on a tightrope. If he wasn't careful, he would fall into the abyss.

"9M..." 2B suddenly broke the silence.

"Hmm?" Ye Feng turned his head and looked at 2B.

"Thank you." 2B's voice was soft, but there was a hint of sincerity in her tone.

"Thank you for saving me... and all of us, and thank you... for always being with me."

Ye Feng's heart trembled.

He looked into 2B's clear eyes and felt the affection in her words.

"Fool, thank you."

Ye Feng smiled.

He reached out his hand and wanted to ruffle 2B's hair like he used to.

But when his hand was halfway extended, it froze in the air.

He thought of 9S and his own moral upbringing.

He can't do this.

He couldn't let 2B misunderstand him again.

"2B, I...you and 9S..."

Ye Feng's voice was a little dry, and he tried hard to organize his words.

"You...you guys need to be well."

2B's body stiffened slightly.

A hint of sadness flashed across her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Yeah." 2B nodded and smiled slightly, "We'll be fine."

Ye Feng felt a pang of pain in his heart.

He knew that 2B was forcing herself to smile.

He knew that he had hurt her heart.

However, he had no choice.

He can only do this.

"2B, I..." Ye Feng wanted to say something, but in the end it just turned into a sigh.

"Let's go." 2B said softly, and she took the lead and walked forward.

Ye Feng followed behind her silently.

The figures of the two people,

Under the light of the corridor, it was stretched very long...

It sets off Ye Feng's inner heart.

"Why are you walking so slowly?"

2B suddenly turned around and called out softly:

"9M..."

Ye Feng was stunned.

Seeing 2B hesitate to speak, I felt a little confused.

Before Ye Feng could open his mouth to ask, 2B suddenly took a few steps back and grabbed Ye Feng's hand.

The soft and cool touch coming from the palm of his hand made Ye Feng's heartbeat suddenly accelerate.

He subconsciously tried to break free, but 2B's grip was too tight to allow him to resist.

2B held Ye Feng's hand and continued to walk forward. Her steps were very light and slow, as if she was afraid of disturbing something.

Ye Feng was completely confused by 2B's behavior. He stared blankly at 2B's profile, his mind going blank.

"What's going on?" Ye Feng shouted in his heart. He had no idea what 2B was going to do.

I'm feeling sad, what is this girl trying to do?

Before Ye Feng could think more, he felt a warmness melting into his arms.

2B suddenly stopped, turned around and hugged Ye Feng tightly.

Her head was buried in Ye Feng's chest, and her body was trembling slightly.

???

Ye Feng was completely dumbfounded. He stood there stiffly, not daring to move.

He could feel 2B's body trembling, could feel the faint fragrance coming from her, could feel her violently beating heart.

This...what is going on?

"Do I really have to take the initiative... You? You seem like a completely different person..."

Listening to the girl's whisper,

Although Ye Feng was confused, he still reached out his trembling hands and hugged the girl.

At the end of the corridor,

Four auxiliary machines in hand,

Peep at this intimate moment openly.

One of the couple is studying.

Another pair...

154 smiled evilly. "This is 2 years from now, there are no so many rules. Besides, 9B and 2S's ideas are different from those of humans. Besides, not to mention 9B, even S is yours... sir..."

Listening to her fierce words, 041's mouth twitched.

"Is this appropriate?"

"very suitable!"

"This beaver?"

"This Ganges beaver!"

"Okay..." 041 muttered to himself with a wonderful expression.

“My family…”
