Collapse: Raising a Wife Since Childhood

Looking around, they probably fell into the mountain, and now they could only find a road and then go back up the mountain. He turned to the girl and asked, "Can you still stand up? We have to go back."

Yuno's face paled when she mentioned this. The abrasion on her calf began to hurt. She wanted to stand up but she had no strength. She looked up at the boy, but found that he did not react at all. She waved her hand in front of his eyes, but there was still no reaction. "I can't move... Can't you see?"

Shen Yunie didn't say anything. The first thing that came to his mind was not to hug her or carry her away, but to ask for help from Leah. It was different when it was dangerous and when it was safe. He still resisted having physical contact with anyone other than Leah.

"Carry her back. I don't know what the situation is like up there." Cecilia spoke up again. She was quite happy with the little boy's personality, but it felt a bit strange.

"I'm blind." Shen Yunie answered Yuno, then helped her up, bent over and carried her behind his back.

After leaving the big tree, Leah's vision became much wider. She could see that there was a road a few kilometers away, so she directed the little boy to go there.

Yuno looked around with a frightened expression, fearing that another monster she had never seen would appear here. Everything was quiet, with only the sound of footsteps and the occasional sound of stepping on dead leaves. The girl suddenly became even more frightened, leaning close to Shen Yunie's ear and whispering, "Brother, what are those monsters? Will my parents be in trouble?"

In fact, Shen Yunie couldn't say for sure. With so many Honkai beasts, no matter how thick the walls of the tower were, they might not last long. The degree of danger was much higher than the degree of safety. However, he still comforted the girl at this time, "It's okay, don't worry, there will be someone to deal with them."

Yuno was comforted by these words and really believed them. She felt much better. After she started talking, she became more talkative. "Brother, what's your name? My parents and I came here to travel, and we didn't expect to run into these monsters."

"Shen Yunie." Shen Yunie only answered this question. He didn't plan to say anything else. It was only after Leah taught him how to comfort a girl that he continued to speak, "Where is your home?"

"In the Far East, I study at Sacred Heart Girls' High School. Will you come back to play with me in the future?"

Shen Yunie did not answer. He was indeed going to the Far East, but to find Wuliangta Jizi. It was impossible for him to go to find the girl who had saved his life after only meeting her once. If her parents wanted to do something to thank him, he was ready to run away. After all, this was not the first time. Later, the Valkyries would come to blur these people's memories of encountering the Honkai beast.

Yuno was a chatterbox, and when she saw that her handsome brother didn't respond, she changed the subject and continued the conversation.

The two children were chatting with each other as they gradually got closer to the road. Finally, the girl put her head on his back and quietly felt the sense of security. Then Yuno suddenly said, "Brother, are you the male protagonist in the animation? You are like the destined child of the female protagonist in the animation."

"You watch too many cartoons. Watch less in the future."

"I've seen in anime that people always repay the life-saving favor by giving themselves to the person they're with!"

"Pfft!" Cecilia couldn't help laughing, and quickly covered her mouth and laughed. She didn't expect that she could save her daughter-in-law by saving someone. This girl is really funny!

Shen Yunie stumbled and almost fell. He paused and sighed helplessly. This girl was really strange. It seemed that she would run away directly after putting her back. He didn't know what happened to her parents.

They walked all the way to the highway, only to find that all the vehicles on the road had disappeared, and there was silence all around. When they returned to the steps on the mountain, Leah suddenly saw several police cars coming around. Perhaps they had dispersed the crowd. Shen Yunie carried the girl up the mountain, thinking about how to escape if he encountered the Valkyrie.

Yuno looked around and huddled on the boy's back in fear. After a long while, when she found no danger, she whispered, "Brother, those monsters are gone!"

"Then go back to your parents." Shen Yunie stepped onto the stairs. She hoped that nothing happened to the girl's parents.

On the platform on the mountain, all the Honkai beasts that were flying in the air fell to the ground, their skin was shattered and they lost their ability to move and collapsed. At this time, someone was cleaning up the bodies, and no one was injured. Many people came up to the platform, and the survivors were taken one by one to a temporary house for memory processing.

There was only a couple anxiously talking to a red-haired woman wearing a special tights equipped with various devices. They were Yuno's parents.

"Yunie, we should leave now." Cecilia recognized that it was a Valkyrie. There were about four or five Valkyries on the mountain. If they found out that Yunie had memories of Honkai, she would be eliminated.

Shen Yunie nodded and prepared to put Yuno down, but she didn't expect the girl to shout excitedly when she saw her parents, "Mom and Dad, I'm here!"

The three people who were talking were all stunned for a moment. Wuliangta Jizi was just about to learn about their daughter from the couple and then go look for her. In her opinion, it was very likely that their daughter was at the foot of the mountain, but she didn't know if she was alive. Until the voice interrupted her thoughts.

Turning her head, she saw two figures standing on the steps. The girl with long light purple hair was waving excitedly. She was the couple's daughter. The boy carrying her on his back looked a little embarrassed. He was wearing a white shirt with a few buttons missing, revealing his chest. A necklace was vaguely visible around his neck, and the transparent crystal sparkled in the sun.

Like diamonds, Jizi recognized this kind of crystal, a product of the collapsed world, and it was the kind that could be found everywhere. But for her, it was of great significance...

36. Encounter

Shen Yunie didn't expect Yuno to suddenly shout out, even though he had clearly told the girl to be quiet. He was stunned for a moment, and immediately put the girl behind him down and turned to leave. It would be dangerous if he was caught and questioned or his memory was probed.

Before anyone could react, he turned around and jumped to the stairs below. He staggered two steps and then quickened his pace to continue running away.

"Hey, that kid!" Ji Zi was the first to come to her senses. She pulled a companion next to her and pushed him in front of the couple. She immediately chased in the direction where the boy disappeared. "I'll leave them to you. I have something to do."

Jizi knew that she would never make a mistake with the necklace, and her intuition told her that the child must have something. In a hurry, she activated the special device installed on her ankle, and the speed of the flames pouring out of the jet nozzle suddenly soared several times.

Seeing the little boy running away in a hurry, Cecilia said with some doubt in her heart: "I always feel that the woman seems to have something to do with us."

Shen Yunie hesitated for a few seconds, but quickly went into the woods on the side. In his opinion, it was more likely that the couple told the Valkyrie about themselves, and the other party was preparing to interrogate them.

A strong wind blew behind him, followed by a burst of hurried footsteps. He was stunned. He didn't expect the other party to catch up with him so fast. Fortunately, he hid himself.

In front of her was the square where the people had been evacuated, but the boy's figure had disappeared. Ji Zi gradually stopped walking. She could feel her heart beating fast. The necklace on the child's neck reminded her of the memory ten years ago, the scene of the gentle woman standing in front of her when she was at a loss, and the comfort she received when she faced the fear of the Honkai Beast for the first time.

"For a profession like ours, what's the use of having so much money? We can't afford any expensive jewelry in the world, so those are clichés." The woman said, with a smile that could warm anyone's face, "Why don't we just wear this."

Then, a crystal necklace appeared in Jizi's arms. It was made of the core of a Honkai beast. Several Honkai beasts could make this necklace. And the Honkai beasts she killed were enough to make more than a dozen.

"This necklace symbolizes our team. We are comrades and family. This feeling cannot be replaced by any amount of money!"

Jizi couldn't help but smile after hearing this. The captain was really a special person. She kept her necklace very well, and it still looks like new. It was the only bond she had left after she died, and the thing she treasured the most. After receiving the news that all the members had died in the battle, this necklace became the only prop for her to recall that time.

That must be our necklace! Her inexplicable intuition told her that she must find the child. The necklace on his neck must have some secrets. But now the child has disappeared. Ji Zi hesitated and wanted to look around. She had already used the acceleration device. Maybe the child was not running as fast as she was?

"Little boy, you should be around here, right?" she asked tentatively, unwilling to miss it.

Shen Yunie was only a few meters away from Ji Zi, so he hid in the bushes behind a big tree. He subconsciously shrank into the bushes without making a sound.

Although there was no response, Jizi continued, "I want to know where you got your necklace."

"Murata Himeko?" Cecilia's face showed surprise. Ragnar once said that only she and her teammates knew about the necklace. After everyone died, only Himeko was left. Shen Yunie didn't say anything, but he was still alert. The memory of being trapped in the town and losing control of his emotions and causing Sister Leah to be injured was still deeply engraved in his mind. What should he do if he was used by the necklace?

"They are really gone..." Jizi looked at the peaceful surroundings and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It has been ten years since my teammates died in the battle. Maybe I really made a mistake.

She took a deep breath and finally said sincerely: "Your necklace is very similar to mine. It was given to me by my captain. They all died in the battle and I am the only one left... They are really similar, so I want to know where you got it from."

"May I have your name."

The voice suddenly came out. Jizi could tell where the voice came from, but she did not rush to look for it. Instead, she answered the question: "Wulianta Jizi, affiliated with Tianming, was a member of the Far West Branch Assault Team Valkyrie ten years ago, and is currently a teacher at Saint Freya."

Suddenly, Jizi's amber eyes shrank suddenly. She saw the fleeing figure coming out from the bushes a few meters away. "My necklace was given to me by Dean Ragnar. She asked me to find you." Shen Yunie felt very calm. He ran into Wuliangta Jizi, whom he had been looking for for three years. The excitement and sadness in his heart did not appear. He just felt like a burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

Ji Zi was stunned. It had been a long time since she heard this name mentioned. Ever since she received the news that all the members of the assault team had been killed, everyone around her began to avoid mentioning the names of the team members in front of her. As time went by, everyone forgot about them, but she was the only one who still remembered them all.

Her lips trembled, and expectation appeared in her amber eyes, "Ragnar, is she still alive?"

"She died in battle... Three years ago, she was killed in an orphanage on the edge of the Siberian snowfield by a Honkai beast." Shen Yunie felt a pang of pain in his heart, and his expression was the same, but he soon regained his composure. The suffering he had endured over the years had made him accustomed to not showing any expression on his face. "I am her adopted son, Shen Yunie. She gave me this necklace before her death and asked me to come find you."

"Ten years... three years?" Her expectations were shattered, and Ji Zi's face turned pale in an instant. What she couldn't accept the most was that her captain was still alive for so many years, but she didn't know the news, and she didn't get to see her again until she died in battle. Her heart ached like a knife, and her eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of mist, "Did she hide from me for so long... Did she say anything before she died?"

Shen Yunie recalled the day when the welfare home was attacked. He still remembered what Ragna said to him. That gentle woman did not forget to comfort him even when she was dying. He took a deep breath and asked seriously, "Sister Jizi, can you heal my eyes? I want to have the ability to resist the collapse and help the dean get revenge."

As soon as she finished speaking, her body was pulled into that warm embrace. Tears welled up in Jizi's eyes and dripped onto the boy's shoulders. He was so thin... He must have suffered a lot on the way here from Siberia, right? The feeling of being embraced by the boy felt like hugging the captain. This child was the successor of the captain's will. Since she had no chance to see the captain again, she must protect this child. "Sister can heal you, okay... I'll take you back to Saint Freya, and I'll protect you in the future."

Tears fell on his shoulders, and Shen Yunie felt a pain in his heart. Everything was reversed. He thought he would break down and cry when he saw Ji Zi, but he was so calm. Instead, Ji Zi started crying. But what never changed was his desire to avenge the dean. He must find that monster and that girl!

……

"Yuno, what are you looking at? We should go." The father said softly to his little daughter. He scratched his head and tried to recall the reason why his daughter was like this, but found that his memory was a little fuzzy. Could it be that he was getting old? "The scenery in Jiangnan is really beautiful. Let's come again next time."

"Well, the place is big, and I was so tired from walking that I fell asleep." The mother also agreed. Her memory was also vague, so she found excuses for herself.

Yuno came to her senses and followed her parents to leave reluctantly. She looked around but still couldn't find the figure she wanted to see. She whispered softly, "Where's Brother Yu-nee?"

37. Xiao Zheng is too shy

"Yunie, we will stay in Shenzhou today. I still have some things to finish here. We will go back to Saint Freya tomorrow." In the hotel in Jiangnan City, Ji Zi held Shen Yunie's hand and whispered to her. This is already the best hotel, but she still feels it is a little bit worse.

This is the final will of her captain and teacher. He is her junior brother and the person she must protect for the rest of her life.

Shen Yunie didn't care about these things. He had lived in good places and bad places. He couldn't help but wonder, "Is it about the Honkai beasts? It shouldn't be easy to hide them if they appear in the city."

"You still know about Honkai..." Jizi showed a surprised expression, but after thinking about it, it made sense. Her junior brother probably didn't have his memory wiped out in that disaster. She was somewhat thankful. If his memory was wiped out, she would be tortured by loneliness forever.

"Don't worry, these things are easy to deal with. The confrontation between the Valkyries and Honkai has a history of hundreds of years." She touched the head of the little apprentice brother, sent him to the room, and then checked the room again. "Have a good rest, see you tomorrow."

"You too." Shen Yunie closed the door gently, feeling a sense of joy in his heart. The tiredness and pain from a day's walk seemed to have disappeared. He stretched and walked towards the room, "I didn't expect to meet Sister Ji Zi like this."

"Senior sister." Cecilia muttered softly. This was another little girl who didn't resist close contact. With the carefree Yuno, she met two more women today. Although she didn't think there was anything wrong with this, and she didn't think the little girl would dislike her because of this, she just had a strange feeling in her heart.

Liya came back to her senses and left Shen Yunie's body. Ji Zi was really attentive, buying more than a dozen new clothes and a new mobile phone, and had dinner prepared and placed on the table to keep warm. The room was impeccable.

"There's a swimming pool. We don't have to squeeze into the bathtub tonight!" She looked at the swimming pool outside the balcony with some excitement. The room was located on the top floor of the hotel. She didn't have to worry about being seen when swimming outside. Instead, she could enjoy the night view of downtown Jiangnan. "Let's swim together."

"Sister Leah, don't you want to eat something first? I'm so hungry." Shen Yunie didn't feel much. He was already hungry after a day of activities. He sat down and started to eat. He didn't hear a response, and looked up in confusion, only to see a beautiful white body.

Cecilia's clothes can disappear automatically with just her thoughts. Feeling the gaze from behind, she turned around and grinned at the little boy. Her skin was as delicate as mutton-fat jade, without a trace of excess fat on her body. Her breasts moved with her every move, and she had a pair of long legs and delicate feet. Shen Yunie had never seen the appearance of other people, but he was sure that no one was as pretty as Sister Leah.

He stared at her for a few seconds, then turned his red face away. He just couldn't see clearly and couldn't distract his attention from other things. That beautiful body kept appearing in his mind. He blushed and stammered, "Sister Leah, why aren't you wearing..."

"Wear it?" Leah tilted her head with a puzzled expression, "Wouldn't it be scary if I wore it?"

Cecilia cannot be seen in the eyes of others. If she really wears clothes, then the scene that appears is a set of clothes floating in the swimming pool, and it will stir up waves from time to time, which will become a supernatural event. So this is the most correct way, and she is not shy about anything in front of the little boy.

"It's okay, go swimming." Shen Yunie focused on the dishes, but he couldn't taste them when he put them in his mouth. He lowered his head and tried his best to prevent Leah from seeing his blushing face.

Cecilia walked to the edge of the swimming pool, put her long legs into the water, and stirred up waves. She turned around and said, "I'll wait for you. This way we don't have to squeeze into the bathtub."

"No, that's okay... I'll go to the bathroom and wash myself later."

The word "myself" made Leah even more confused. When she saw the red face, she gradually understood and couldn't help but smile. "Do you know the structure of the bathroom here?"

"I don't know..."

"You still have to wait for me." Cecilia jumped into the water, and the calm surface of the pool was stirred up by bigger waves. She climbed the edge with both hands and looked at the little boy with a smile. Are you shy now? But you still can't escape from me. You can't take a normal bath without me.

As she thought this in her heart, the smile on her face became brighter and brighter, and her graceful figure did a beautiful butterfly stroke in the swimming pool.

Shen Yunie ate some food, and then could only sit aside and wait quietly for Leah to finish swimming. He really didn't know the structure of the bathroom, so he tried to avoid looking at that beautiful body. He could not avoid feeling his cheeks getting hot when he saw it, and his body also felt hot. It's clearly the end of autumn now...

The TV was turned on but only the sound could be heard. It happened to be a news program. He could hear the host reporting the main news of Jiangnan City today.

"Today, people in Jiangnan City saw the shadow of an unknown creature covering Nanping Mountain. This creature is actually a kind of bird from the northern part of China. They are large and migrate south for the winter earlier than other birds. Don't panic. Let's listen to what the people who saw it said."

Then the voice changed to a woman's voice, who began to explain to people in coordination with what the host said.

Was it resolved so quickly? Shen Yunie was a little surprised at the speed of the Valkyries. The news broadcast, the crowd, and the authorities explained one after another. If he hadn't known about the existence of Honkai, he would have believed what they said.

This is probably the reason why the collapse has not been known to the public for hundreds of years. Knowing that your life is threatened by a monster all the time and your life is in danger at any time, this world has long been in chaos.

As he was thinking, the TV was suddenly turned off. Shen Yunie came to his senses and found that Leah, who was soaked all over, was standing in front of him. Her silver hair was close to her body, and the vague feeling was several times more stimulating than looking directly at her. He felt his nose getting hot as he looked at her, and quickly turned his head away.

"It's time to take a shower and rest." Seeing the shyness of the little boy, Leah smiled even more happily and reached out to pick him up. Although he has grown older, his weight is still so light. It's time to consider letting Yu Nie gain some weight.

"I, I can walk!" Shen Yunie struggled, unable to avoid looking at the fair jade neck and chin, and the friction between the arm and the skin through a thin layer of cloth. Her body felt numb as if she had been electrocuted.

Cecilia naturally couldn't let him struggle, so she held him tightly. She looked down and suddenly cried out in surprise, "Yune, your nose is bleeding..."

38. Conceal

Ji Zi was busy until late at night before returning to her room. She lived in a room a distance away from Shen Yunie. She looked at the time on her watch and dismissed the idea of ​​disturbing him. He should have rested by now.

She pushed open the door of her room and saw several friends sitting in the hall playing games like rock-paper-scissors, which made people blush. She glanced at them, without much emotion, but just sighed, took out the cold beer from the refrigerator beside her, and sat next to them.

"Thank you for your hard work today. How is the situation over there? I was really shocked this time. So many Honkai beasts appeared in the city."

"Anyway, I've kept it a secret. The collapse is getting worse." Jizi answered and took a sip of wine. The cold feeling that stimulated her throat made her whole body relax. It was just not as strong as the wine she had in the Far West. She drank a bottle when she was tired and could sleep all night.

"We are only responsible for dealing with Honkai beasts. If you explain, they will send someone. Don't worry about it."

Several companions nodded and stopped thinking about it. Instead, they turned the topic to Shen Yunie, and surrounded Ji Zi and asked with a smile: "Where did you get this little junior brother who suddenly came? He is prettier than a girl and my motherly love is overflowing!"

"My teacher's son..." Ji Zi smiled, and the expression on her face became serious, "I plan to take him back to Saint Freya and let him stay with me in the future."

"We don't have any objections. You can handle the principal's case on your own." One of them smiled faintly and shook his head. His expression gradually became serious. "But can the child adapt to the collapsed environment?"

"I believe he can do it."

……

Shen Yunie woke up on time according to his biological clock. When he opened his eyes, the pretty face appeared in front of him. The way they hugged each other was a little strange. What made him even more surprised was that Lia had clearly slept away from him last night because she was afraid that her body would be stimulated again and get sick. Why were they hugging each other again now?

He moved his arms and found that they were both resting on the same pillow, with his own pillow lying on the side. So he brought it here last night?

That beautiful body appeared in her mind, and Xiao Yu'e's face turned red. She had seen it before, but why did she have a nosebleed last night...

He walked towards the swimming pool with doubt and jumped into the water. The cool water and the cool weather in late autumn immediately made his dizzy head clearer.

Cecilia woke up, rubbed her eyes sleepily, and looked at the little boy swimming. He insisted on exercising at a young age, and his figure was much better than his peers. She could even imagine what Yu Nie would look like when he grew up. At that time, he would definitely be several times more beautiful than those idols and stars.

It was not until Shen Yunie was tired from swimming that Liya got up and returned to his body. The two went to the bathroom to wash up. When they left the bathroom, there was a knock on the door. Shen Yunie went to open the door. Ji Zi, who had packed up, appeared at the door. She was wearing a shirt, a blue denim jacket, and a pair of white hot pants that showed off her long legs. The Valkyries were all very young and beautiful. Seeing them on the street would easily arouse men's desire to protect them. No one would have thought that such a woman was actually fighting against terrifying monsters with weapons in hand.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Ji Zi reached out and touched the little apprentice's head, and her mind unconsciously recalled what her friend said yesterday. His hair is so long... He has been wandering for so long but his appearance does not look like he has suffered any hardship. It is indeed more delicate and beautiful than a girl.

"Yeah, this place is great." Shen Yunie nodded. He knew that today was the day to go to Saint Freya. Recalling what Sister Leah often said to him, he said to Ji Zi, "Sister Ji Zi, am I going to live there in the future? If I transplant the stigmata, can I be like you guys?"

What the junior brother said always surprised Ji Zi. After hesitating for a few seconds, she gently replied, "We'll talk about this later. Let's go back and find a way to cure your eyes first."

The two left the hotel, followed by Ji Zi's friends, who were all Valkyries and Saint Freya's teachers. A luxury car that was more luxurious than any other car on the street drove them to the airport.

"I always feel like Jizi is hiding something from us?" Leah thought about the stigmata transplant. She had no other memories of the matter, and she didn't even know what the conditions were. Thinking of Jizi's gentleness and care for Yu Nie, she thought that even if she was hiding something, it was out of kindness.

"But this is the only way I can go further." Shen Yunie had made up his mind the day he started wandering. His desire to avenge Ragnar was unwavering. If Ji Zi didn't tell him this time, he would continue to ask next time, and he would complete it no matter what the conditions were.
