EVA: Shinji Ikari Returns from the Dragon Clan

Chapter 202 200. We made a promise of fireworks

"So, what happened to Shinji-kun and Asuka?"

Ritsuko Akagi asked curiously.

In the headquarters office.

The staff outside all had happy expressions as they were about to get off work, while the two women who were getting ready to get off work inside were chatting. Looking at her friend who was asking her about gossip, Misato Katsuragi had no intention of hiding anything, but she actually didn't understand what had happened between the two children.

She had no choice but to explain awkwardly:

"Ritsuko, I don't know much about this either. On the fifth day after Asuka's synchronization rate dropped and she ran away from home, I heard from Shinji-kun that she was in a very bad condition. I wanted to go and give Asuka a lecture and take care of her, but fortunately Shinji-kun talked me out of it. In the end, I had to ask him to help take care of Asuka, and this is what happened."

"Is that so? That's not bad. The synchronization rate has increased dramatically."

Akagi Ritsuko chuckled.

Katsuragi Misato looked at her strange expression, not knowing what her friend was thinking. She tapped her knuckles on the table unconsciously a few times, as if she was hesitating about something. After a long while, she asked her friend:

"Speaking of which..."

"Ok?"

"Asuka's synchronization rate is rising so fast, is there any danger?"

"Will not."

Ritsuko Akagi said calmly, with a firm tone.

"That's good."

Misato Katsuragi smiled and said.

Then the two chatted about trivial matters in life for a while, like good friends who could talk about anything. It wasn't like they had been good friends since college days. But it wasn't until they left the office that Misato Katsuragi breathed a long sigh of relief.

Synchronicity...the Angel in the underground...Unit-01...

There are more and more mysteries.

It was already night when Misato Katsuragi returned to the apartment with melancholy.

When she opened the door of the apartment, the lights inside were on. The whole apartment was filled with a warm and cozy style, and there was even the aroma of food, which made her secretly relieved, and even the melancholy between her eyebrows dissipated a little. The penguin flapped its wings twice and called to her twice as a welcome. Misato Katsuragi smiled at it. It was really nice to have someone at home.

The good news is that the air-conditioning temperature today is very suitable, and it is finally not enough to kill people.

She walked through the living room and saw Asuka sleeping soundly on the sofa. She had to wake the girl up.
"Asuka, don't sleep here."

"Umm~ Misato."

Asuka rubbed her eyes sleepily.

After Shinji left, she couldn't resist the sleepiness and lay down on the sofa, and she hadn't even eaten yet. As soon as she woke up, she felt hungry. The white rice in the kitchen was already cooked, and Katsuragi Misato served the rice and brought it out, and also put the dishes made by Ikari Shinji on the dining table.

Asuka yawned, sat down at the table like a lady, and ate her portion in silence.

Misato Katsuragi on the opposite side had just picked up her chopsticks for two bites when her eyes lit up.

"It tastes much better than before." She praised, "Asuka, your cooking skills are getting better and better."

"..."

Asuka just glanced at her.

Misato doesn't know the truth, so she's not intentionally hurting herself, right?
"What, what are you doing? I'm really praising you." Seeing her indifferent expression, Katsuragi Misato quickly put down her chopsticks and said, "You've really improved. It would be great if I could eat this every day."

Asuka's eyes were already a little unfriendly, and she said unhappily,
"Eat yours, this is made by Shinji."

"Shinji-kun?"

It turned out to be...

That's not right. Why is Shinji-kun here to cook?

Katsuragi Misato was a little confused. She was wondering if she had missed something amazing this afternoon when she was not aware of it. How did Shinji take care of Asuka? He even came to the apartment to help cook dinner. But Asuka obviously had no intention of explaining to her. She just buried her head in the food, so she could only continue to eat with chopsticks in confusion.

Another chopstick.

Well, the food Shinji-kun makes tastes really good.

Although it's a bit unfair to Asuka to think this way, I still hope that the food I eat in the future will be of this quality. She looked at the night outside and thought about the synchronization rate between Asuka and Unit 2 today. Because of the recovery of this cohabiting girl, Katsuragi Misato was in a happier mood. And there have been no apostles attacking recently, so she has spent a long period of peace.

Meanwhile, in Shinji Ikari's apartment, two people were also eating at the dining table. However, unlike her and Asuka, who were sitting opposite each other, this couple was so close that they could kiss each other with just a turn of their heads.

Shinji Ikari picked up the last piece of food with his chopsticks.

After he and Rei Ayanami finished their meal and washed the dishes, they watched TV in the living room. During the time when Asuka was in the hospital, he went to the shopping street to buy it, and this time there were no twists and turns on the way home. The sound of the program was just a background at this moment, and Rei Ayanami habitually lay in his arms, reading quietly. Ikari Shinji had been thinking about whether he could take her to play games together, but in the end, the two of them just read books together.

But at this time, Ikari Shinji was not reading a book or watching TV. Instead, he was talking about what happened just now, "I sent Asuka home and cooked dinner, which took up some time."

"Ikari-kun, have you gotten along better with Unit 2's pilot?"

"Ah."

Hearing Ikari Shinji's affirmation, she showed a relieved expression on her face. The girl's expression was so gentle, emitting an inexplicable brilliance. With such a beautiful face, it would not be a problem for her to be a saint. However, Ikari Shinji was not in such a good mood. He stroked his bony fingers and deliberately asked her in a low voice in a calm tone:

"You and Asuka even kissed, so it's possible that we can take it a step further in the future. Is this what you want, Ayanami?"

Rei Ayanami's hands froze slightly.

kiss.

Even though she had expected this, she still felt uncomfortable when she heard it, especially when it was said by Ikari himself. So far, she has never experienced the feeling of losing Ikari, and people always take for granted what they have always had.

Ikari Shinji looked over, she looked away, her voice slightly prolonged,
"…Um."

"Really?"

"Ah."

The girl's blood vessels were dormant under her pale skin, clearly visible under the light. He suddenly leaned back and lowered his head to cover all the lights in the apartment. Ikari Shinji's eyes drooped, and Ayanami Rei's slightly changing expression caught his eyes. It was the first time he saw her show such a subtle expression of grievance and accusation.

"Jealous?"

"No."

In the end, I was still jealous.

He couldn't help but feel sorry for himself. He had gone too far. How should I put it? Ayanami seemed to have only wanted to improve her relationship with Asuka, but she herself probably hadn't figured out how good of a relationship she wanted him to have with the pilot of Unit 2.

How did it get to the point of kissing?
You are such a bad guy.

"I'm sorry," he said.

"I always get angry when I see you, Ayanami, not caring at all and pushing me away. It just so happens that I have a crush on Asuka... It sounds like I'm a scumbag, but even though this crush is quite weak compared to your crush, it can't be faked. So I always wanted to see what you really think about this matter. Now that I see that you, Ayanami, actually care about it, I feel relieved."

"Ikari-kun, it's okay."

"Really?"

"..."

Rei Ayanami remained silent.

Shinji Ikari smiled. The girl looked so cute that he couldn't help but kiss Rei Ayanami.

But this kiss was completely unstoppable.

The desire in my body resurfaced at this moment.

From last night till now, the devilish desire that Asuka had aroused was only temporarily suppressed by him. Shinji Ikari looked at Rei Ayanami who had no resistance, and his breathing became heavier subconsciously, as if he had sensed his thoughts. Rei Ayanami's pure red eyes looked over at him, what the hell was this?

He quickly carried the girl to the bed and laid her down. He held Rei Ayanami in his arms like a toy, interlocking their fingers.

Start kissing her neck.

In the end, even the girl's eyelashes became soft.

And Rei Ayanami's response today was much more enthusiastic than usual. When he wasn't paying attention, she secretly kissed his lips several more times, as if doing so could remove the scent of Asuka from his body.

Shinji Ikari, who had taken advantage, thought that this was not bad.

After a long time.

Shinji Ikari, who had let out all the devil, regained some of his sanity. He looked at Rei Ayanami, who seemed to have turned into a puddle of water, and wiped her sweat with a towel. Then he glanced at the calendar and said softly:
"Next month is Christmas and New Year's Day."

"Christmas? New Year's?"

"Hmm. Ayanami, you haven't experienced these festivals, have you? At Christmas, there will be Santa Claus wearing red clothes and riding a reindeer to give gifts to children. As for New Year's Day, people will set off fireworks, red, green, and blue, like all kinds of colorful flowers blooming."

"Fireworks? Are they pretty?"

She listened intently to what Shinji Ikari said.

In front of her, Shinji Ikari can tell her anything, and she always listens to him attentively, immersed in his story. Sometimes the content is not a big deal, but she is still so focused, as if everything Shinji Ikari says is a fascinating story worth listening to. There are girls who are willing to listen to him so attentively, so Shinji Ikari also wants to share those stories with her.

"Yeah, very beautiful fireworks." He thought for a moment and said, "Words cannot describe how beautiful they are. I'll take you, Ayanami, to see them then."

"it is good."

Ayanami Rei nodded obediently.
