[Attack on Titan] Amnesia Syndrome

Pat ultimately failed to stop Armin.

With a burden on his back, he kept a close distance, silently following Almin.

The old castle gradually disappeared behind him, and everywhere he could see was wasteland, and there was no trace of popularity.

At this time, the only coordinate that can be referred to is the sun, and it will be a matter of time to be able to distinguish the direction and return to the Wall of Maria.

But what surprised him was that he didn't see a single giant along the way.

They were all taken away by Leer?

This question popped up over and over in his mind, and finally reached its peak a day later. In the evening, Armin found a place to spend the night. Pat lit the fire, handed him the baked dry food and water, and sat silently. Look out for the wind.

——Although I haven’t been able to see a giant so far, it’s better to cheer up just in case.

Pat glanced at Almin seemingly unintentionally, just in time to see him swallowing the last mouthful of dry food and pouring water with his head up.

——This person is very important to the master, so you must protect it well until you return to the master.

The sweet spring water moistened his throat, barely suppressing the dry and flaming discomfort. Armin tightened the bottle cap and threw the water bottle back to Pat.

The latter took it with a blank face, without making a sound during the whole process.

Armin wiped his hands, took out the diary from his arms, and flipped through it by the firelight.

……

【Year, X, X, X, Sunny

I saw the child adopted by the Earl of Lance today, and he looked really thin, not quite like Barlow.It's really strange, why did the Earl want to adopt a child back? 】

【Year, X, X, X, Sunny

I learned that child's name, Leer Lance, is 17 years old this year, haha, he is actually younger than me, it seems that I am going to become a sister. 】

[Year X month X day cloudy

God, my brother is simply a troublemaker, and he actually took Baro and Leer to the forest, which is obviously a forbidden area!My father said that there are man-eating beasts inside, and humans are absolutely not allowed to enter, otherwise, if they wake up, the world will be over! 】

[Rain on X month X day in X year

I saw them go to the forest again. 】

[Rain on X month X day in X year

There was a dispute with my brother, I think they shouldn't go to such a dangerous place, my brother compromised. 】

……

The time is hundreds of years ago,

Almin roughly browsed through a few pages, and found that the records in it were all trivial and daily, and judging from the words in it, it seemed that the person who wrote this diary was not Leer, and the beautiful woman in the crystal coffin suddenly appeared in his mind. Woman, is it hers?

So... the Leer written in this diary is the person he met now?

Armin was surprised and suspicious.

If not, why are the two identities so similar?

If so, then judging from the age of the woman who wrote this diary...Kathy Arnold... Wait, her so-called identity and age are all said by Leer alone. Whether it is true or not is still open to debate. ?

The more Armin thought about it, the more confused he became, he simply put aside all the questions and continued to read.

……

Strangely, there seemed to be a lot fewer people in the town.

This should not be my illusion, because when I asked Barlow and Leer, they also agreed with it.

My father has been very busy recently, and he was in a hurry when he rarely saw each other.

It always feels like...something bad is going to happen. 】

……

Ugh!

Armin was shocked and found it!

[Year X month X day cloudy

It has been a month since I saw my father and brother.

In the evening, my brother, who hadn't shown up for a long time, suddenly brought a lot of military police over, saying that we were going to move to another town.I don't want to leave here. The reeds by the lake and the shrubs covered with dodder in the field are my favorites. There are also flower stands and swings made by my brother for me.

And my buddies.

Barlow and Lehr, Christina...

My brother assured me that a new garden would be built for me, bigger and more beautiful than the old one, and when I boarded the carriage I found my companions there, which was a great surprise.

It turned out that everyone was going to move out, not just me.

This realization made me very happy.

When he was about to leave, there seemed to be some strange sound coming from afar. 】

[Year X month X day cloudy

Has the sun forgotten us?It hasn't been seen for a long time.

After moving to the new town, everyone seems to be reluctant to go out. There are more and more guards patrolling the yard. Wherever I go, there will be a series of people behind me. I don’t understand what happened, and I always feel a little scared in my heart .Fortunately, Barlow and Leer will come to see me from time to time. As for Christina... she seems to have been banned just like me. 】

[Year X month X day cloudy

beast!

There really are beasts!

God, it's so big, we're only as tall as his finger!

I shouldn't have listened to Barlow and sneaked into the street with them, the legend is true, the beast really can eat people!

... No, it shouldn't be a beast, it should be a huge wild man! 】

[Year X month X day cloudy

No!It shouldn't be like this!Why brother!

You can't treat nobles like this! 】

……

The diary ends here.

Armin frowned slowly.

To be honest, he has only half a clue about the following diaries, and the only thing he can understand is that the 'beast' described in it is probably a giant.

What does the last 'can't do this to nobles'... mean?

Armin asked the question, but as expected, he was silent.

Pat didn't seem to hear him at all, and turned his back to him and stared into the distance, motionless.

Armin hit a cold nail, but didn't give up, and just said all he didn't understand, "The diary was very calm at the beginning, that is, there were no giants, but there was a mention of a forbidden place in the forest. , and the 'giant savage' sleeping inside...that's what giants mean, right? Barlow, Lele, and Casey...Well, Casey's brother, has been to the forbidden area, and more than once or twice, so Did they wake the giants?"

Had the giant been sleeping all this time?

Someone approaching will wake them up?

Armin's frown became deeper and deeper, "According to the status of Earl Lance, the entire land should belong to him, that is to say, the forest also belongs to him, so the only person who can enter the forbidden area is Only my own family is left, although Brother Casey promised not to enter the forbidden area, but he still went with Barlow and the others?"

"..."

"The number of people in the town began to decrease, and Casey's father began to disappear, which proves that the giant has woken up and started preying on humans? Then the last...what does it mean that you can't do this to the nobles?"

"..."

Pat remained silent, silent and quiet like a lifeless sculpture.

After failing to get the desired answer, Armin also fell silent.He looked down at the diary in his hand, especially the last paragraph, and repeated it silently in his heart over and over again, always feeling that he had touched something faintly.

Now he holds a lot of clues in his hand, the only thing he lacks is the long thread that connects all of them.

The author has something to say: the finale of the last chapter tomorrow, OTZ, this article has been delayed for too long
