Chapter 143: What is Threshold?
Before they knew it, it was almost midnight, and Kiana and Mei had been chatting for such a long time.
When it reached midnight, Mei's body slowly became illusory.
"It seems like the time has come again," Mei said helplessly as she looked at her gradually becoming illusory palm.
"It's okay, Mei, we'll have plenty of opportunities next time." Kiana showed a very cunning smile, and there was even a hint of smugness in that smile as if she was hinting at something.
It's like the little fox who achieved her goal and stole the chicken.
"Kiana..." Mei rolled her eyes helplessly, "How come you have become like this after not seeing you for such a long time..."
Kiana thought about it very seriously, touched her chin, and finally said to Mei very seriously: "This is what happened after I married the captain."
All she can say is that the captain changed his attitude. Having a man and not having a man are two completely different states.
Mei rolled her eyes again. This eye roll...
But this time, no matter how you look at it, this roll of the eyes seems unusually charming, with a hint of spring in the corners of her eyes, and she looks at the person who seems to be asleep, with a bit of shyness.
What does that feel like? The changes in Kiana really aroused Mei's curiosity.
Today can be said to be the happiest day for Mei since the captain disappeared at the end of Honkai.
Not only did she reunite with the captain, but even... Mei shyly touched her lips lightly with her fingers. At this moment, the slight swelling there had completely healed.
But Mei seemed to still be able to vaguely feel the slightly stimulating touch brought by the captain's lips, which were thicker than her own.
Perhaps this alone will be enough to make her savor it for a long time...
Mei was thinking contentedly at this moment.
Kiana, who had been standing aside and observing Mei's expression, looked a little strange: Are you satisfied with this? It seems that Mei is quite easy to please...
Little did they know that Kiana's performance at the beginning was actually worse than Mei's now.
Kiana used to be the kind of heartless girl. When Kiana and Sora first met, they were both still young and had never thought about the things between men and women.
She was also very stubborn at that time. she was looking for her stinky father Siegfried all over the world, and she completely ignored the person who had been silently following her and taking care of her.
Later, when they arrived at St. Freya's College, Kiana and the others were also at the age of falling in love for the first time and were very shy to express their feelings.
And looking back now, she was just a lawless little girl at that time.
When the Fourth Honkai Eruption finally happened, it was still nothing, but the responsibilities on her shoulders became heavier and heavier.
'And at that time, I was like a time bomb... I didn't know when it would explode, and I was afraid that I would hurt the captain...'
(Do you think I am right? Sirin...)
She doesn't know when she will die, and at what time Kiana will even take the initiative to stay away from her beloved one.
And then came the happiest time in her life, which was when she came to this world that had not Honkai and just met the captain.
Although she had a big misunderstanding with the captain when they first met... making the captain think that she was someone who wanted to jump off the bridge to commit suicide...
But later, as a blessing in disguise, her relationship with the captain became better and better, and she even lived with the captain on the pretext of amnesia.
At that time, she could be happy for a long time just by holding the captain's hand.
If the two of them hugged each other lovingly, Kiana would even burst into bubbles of joy at that time.
But now... she can act as if nothing has happened in front of Mei and talk about some of her "sports activities" with the captain which made Mei blush.
I can only say that the threshold is a very magical thing. Humans will always refresh it because of certain things...
In the end, what was originally a very exciting thing to watch, after the threshold was refreshed again and again, looking back at it again would become as bland as water...
Mei could sense the strangeness in Kiana's eyes that she couldn't understand, but she could still interpret that there was pity and a hint of "superiority" in those eyes, the look of a senior looking at an inexperienced junior?
For the first time ever, Mei seemed a little embarrassed in front of Kiana.
At this moment, Mei began to disappear completely from bottom to top.
Glancing at the time, Mei said jokingly, "I started to disappear at midnight. Am I the Cinderella who sneaked out to meet the prince?"
"What a pity... I haven't left my 'crystal slipper' for the captain yet."
Perhaps the only regret today is that she was not able to say goodbye to the captain properly...
"The captain is in a coma now? Can I cosplay like Snow White? Should I give him one more kiss before leaving so that he can wake up?"
Slowly came to the captain's bedside. Since Mei had already dissipated to the position of her chest, this action was more like "floating" over...
Although Mei also wanted to kiss the captain one more time before leaving as she said.
But after a careful look, Kiana was standing behind her...
In front of others... Let's just forget it...
she lowered her head and carefully observed that very familiar face.
"Captain... a little stronger than before? And he looks more mature..." The slightly illusory fingers gently rubbed the temples and forehead of the still unconscious Sora, "The most important thing is that the captain's frown, which had always been there, is finally gone..."
After saying that, he wanted to continue touching the captain before leaving. But the dentist found that his palms had begun to dissipate.
"It seems that time is really running out... Captain, see you next time..."
Perhaps he noticed something, and at this moment he slowly opened his eyes.
Looking at Mei, who had disappeared to her neck, her pupils began to shrink.
"Eh?" Mei was also startled by the captain. She looked down hurriedly and found that she had nothing below her neck. Only her head was floating strangely in the air.
'It's over. I look exactly like a female ghost in a horror movie... Will I scare the captain?'
"Mei!" But a voice suddenly came from the captain's mouth, a very concerned and familiar shout.
