NieR: Whirlpool

Looking at the old king's body, the three of them couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

"Senior, did you find any useful information?"

9S shook his head.

"You can't get in. The person is already dead. It's just an empty shell."

"Oh..." Ye Feng let out a long sigh.

2B, who was standing by, bit her lip and said nothing.

Everyone bowed to the king silently.

Finally, Ye Feng said to the Prime Minister,

"Mr. Prime Minister, I have an unwelcome request, and I hope you will agree to it."

"Please speak, benefactor." said the Prime Minister.

Ye Feng thought for a moment, and then asked,

"The woman just now created a human being. Please, Prime Minister, do not order her to be hunted down."

"Why, benefactor?" The prime minister was a little surprised.

"She is our friend." Ye Feng blushed a little, "He felt that this request was indeed a bit excessive."

Friend? The Prime Minister looked a little puzzled.

"Yes, a friend who lost his way." Ye Feng explained, "I know that doing this will make us feel sorry for the fallen soldiers, but please..."

“I understand that we will make arrangements for the fallen soldiers and their families.

In addition, benefactor, please rest assured that I will pass on the order! "The prime minister nodded solemnly and agreed.

"Please." Ye Feng said, and took out an electronic card from his backpack and gave it to the Prime Minister.

"These are nothing, they are all my belongings, please accept them!"

This card contains 100W G of electronic currency, which was cashed out by the resistance army's logistics department after the abandoned underground arsenal was discovered last time.

"This... is not necessary, benefactor..."

"Please let me feel at ease for a moment." Ye Feng pleaded.

The prime minister looked embarrassed and thought for a long time before finally taking the card.

At this time, 2B and 9S, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't see Ye Feng, so they came to look for him.

I came across this scene unexpectedly.

2B's expression was complicated.

9S was also thinking about it.

"9S..."

Hearing 2B's call, 9S looked over.

"What's wrong, 2B?"

"Why not... help 9M..." Her voice was very low and sounded a little gentle.

"Help?" 9S looked confused.

2B looked at 9S with a puzzled look on his face and could not help but stamp her feet lightly, saying in a chastising tone:

"Last time, didn't we win so many spoils..."

9S suddenly realized what was going on and couldn't help but smile playfully.

"I understand, 2B."

9S said as he jumped out from behind the wall and ran towards Ye Feng and the Prime Minister.

9B opened the communication while looking at 2S.

Ding ding,

"2B to the Commander."

"This is White, 2B, please speak." White's cold and serious voice came from the auxiliary machine.

2B sent the photo she had taken of A2 and reported:

"We just encountered the Betrayer Attack Type 2, but she ran away."

White Chen on the opposite side did not respond directly. After a moment, she said in a serious tone:

"Please proceed with caution when facing this extremely dangerous person."

Then, White changed the subject.

"Is the target behaving abnormally?"

Hearing this, 2B's body trembled slightly, but she quickly stabilized.

“No abnormalities have been found yet.”

“Okay, we need to continue observing the target.

Communication completed."

……

On the other hand, Ye Feng always felt that something was wrong and was in danger.

A hand gently rested on his shoulder, and when he turned around, he saw 9S, who looked very energetic.

"Senior. What are you doing?"

9S showed a meaningful expression and took out an electronic card and handed it to the Prime Minister.

"Please accept this card."

"This is..." The prime minister was stunned and did not extend his hand.

Ye Feng was also stunned and looked at 9S in disbelief.

“Brother…you…”

9S winked at Ye Feng playfully, giving him an expression that said you understand.

Ye Feng looked at 9S's extremely familiar face and felt deeply moved.

"Thank you!"

"Who are you with?" 9S gently lifted Ye Feng up.

This card contains 1000W G of electronic currency, which is the "trophy" they got after the last match with the blue machine.

At the same time, 9S deposited a check for 300W G directly into the card.

"Please accept it and use it as compensation for our fallen soldiers." 9S imitated Ye Feng's words and tone and said very seriously.

Then he said again: "Please let me rest assured for a while."

The Prime Minister suddenly looked embarrassed. He looked at 9S, then at Ye Feng, and at the same time noticed 2B under a tree not far away.

He sighed softly, took the card silently, and then bowed and said:

"You are all noble! In addition to this, the kingdom will also provide compensation to the soldiers."

"I'm very sorry. Thank you very much." Ye Feng also cupped his hands.

"Then, Mr. Prime Minister, let's say goodbye now."

“Please come here often when you have time.

Walk slowly! "

"goodbye!"

……

The three of them walked along the road and came to a river.

He stopped near a large rock.

"9M, why did you let that woman go and help her?" 2B, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke and asked sternly.

After hearing what 2B said, 9S also looked at Ye Feng with a puzzled look on his face:

"Yes, 9M, don't you know that she betrayed YoRHa?"

Ye Feng was a little flustered. After a moment, he suppressed his emotions and said softly:

"I just feel like she doesn't seem like a bad person. That's all."

"But……"

9S tried to say something, but was stopped by 2B.

"9M, what on earth are you......"

The three of them fell into a strange silence again.

After a long time,

"Do you have any secrets?" 2B's voice was cold and her face darkened.

Ye Feng was speechless for a moment. He had just thought for a long time and didn't know how to get around it.

Is it possible that you need to explain it clearly...

As he pondered, his heart sank.

I don’t even know whether the explanation will be met with understanding or execution.

Is it...

I want to draw my sword against my old friend...

Could it be that

Endless pursuit and escape...

Could it be that

Is my time-travelling career coming to an end?

He thought about many things and was in a state of confusion.

Hearing 2B's doubt, he took off his tactical goggles, revealing his light blue eyes.

Then, he looked at 2B, and then at 2S who was standing with 9B. His eyes were extremely gentle, and his affectionate gaze revealed bursts of sadness.

"I'm waiting for your answer!" 2B's voice was very cold, revealing a strong threat.

He didn't say anything, but just looked at the two of them quietly for a long time.

He smiled bitterly and reached into his pocket for a long time.

Finally, he took out the pipe Oppenheimer had given him, lit it,

Sitting silently on the stone, smoking heavily.

"You, speak!"

2B said in a commanding tone, with a hint of tears in her voice.

"Hey……"

As if he had finally made up his mind, Ye Feng sighed, slowly stood up, and looked at the two people standing side by side with gentle eyes.

He mustered up his courage and was about to speak.

But then I heard 2B blurt out,

"Do you like her?"

"what?"

"what?"
