Chapter 278 Return

Two weeks, two whole weeks, before Bing came back from the United States. This damn guy didn't even reply to our letters, causing so many of us to worry about him, but he came back leisurely, as if nothing had happened. We were really worried about him for nothing! However, our training has not stopped in the past two weeks, and I have completely gotten used to the 0.2 times gravity. I wanted to give him a surprise, but I didn't expect...

——Angel of Annihilation Ling
"I'm back!"

Early in the morning, a loud voice resounded throughout the room. Yes, the owner of this voice was naturally me. After two weeks, I finally returned to my room again.

"Bing, welcome back!" Jingliu, who was wearing pajamas, heard my voice and jumped out of bed and ran to the door, taking the coat I just took off. "Where have you been for the past two weeks? You didn't even contact me."

"Hey, don't mention it." I answered as I walked into the room. "I had agreed with Vermouth to go to Nara together to kill a person who was blocking our way. The mission was completed very quickly, and it was done on the day we left. That idiot, Sister Bei just pulled down her collar a little bit, and the guy was in the way. The mission can be said to be easy and enjoyable."

"But, I got the news that you were going to the United States, didn't I?" Jingliu came to the sofa and poured me a glass of water.

"Huh? How did you know?" I was slightly surprised, but then I figured it out. "Oh, Shiho used her authority to find out about Vermouth, right?"

"Well, about a week later, Shiho used her power to find out that Vermouth took you to the United States." Shizuru replied.

"Yes, right after the mission." I drank the water Jingliu handed me. "After the mission was completed, I had already taken Vermouth's Harley back, but on the way Vermouth received a call, and a few minutes later she turned the car around and took me to the airport. At that time, I knew that she had received an urgent mission and the plane was about to take off, so she took me directly to the airport. As for me who went with her, my mobile phone was also taken away by her, and now it hasn't been returned yet." I spread my hands and looked helpless to Jingliu.

"What kind of mission is it that requires you to go so..." Jing Liu quickly closed her mouth before she finished her words, because she realized that she had said too much. It was related to the mission, and she couldn't ask these questions.

"There was a traitor in the base in the United States. So Vermouth spent some time investigating, and I stayed there for two weeks. I didn't do anything practical, but I looked at the training methods in the United States." I also knew that Jingliu was concerned about me, so I didn't keep my mouth shut for a while. So I simply told her, of course, I didn't tell her the truth, although it was true that there was a traitor. But I couldn't tell her more detailed content, not because I didn't trust her, but because I was protecting her. For some things, if one more person knows, one more life may be lost.

"I see." Jingliu relaxed the tension in his heart, and then began to report the recent situation to me. "Forget it, I'm glad to see that you are safe. You don't know, during the time you were away, the training of those children has not been neglected, especially Ling, the amount of training has tended to double. And she took the initiative to ask Shiho for her help in learning about medicine. She said she wanted to give you a surprise when you come back."

"Oh? Ling is so hardworking?" I couldn't help but be surprised. I haven't seen them for two weeks, and I was a little worried that the training would take too long. In fact, I deliberately left the gravity ring before leaving, just in case the children were lazy. I didn't expect Ling and the others to be able to make me feel at ease. "Then I'll try her during the training later." I smiled and stretched, and the ring on my wrist also caught Jingliu's eyes.

"Gravity ring? You... always carry it with you?" Jingliu was surprised. She never thought that I would carry it with me during the mission.

"Well, when I learned that Sister Bei was going to ask me to go to the United States, I took her with me when I found out that there was nothing to do there. After all, I couldn't let myself be idle in these two weeks. Although there was no particularly large-scale training, there were also many small-scale activities." Of course, I was not idle at all during those two weeks in the United States. Because I was a child, I went to many places and had some friction with American detectives, but it did not attract the attention of the FBI. After all, with Vermouth in the United States, how could the FBI have time to care about what happened to a child? It's just these things. I can't tell Jingliu.

"Okay, just be careful about the burden on your body. I've prepared a lot of nutritional supplements for you and put them in the refrigerator. Remember to take them out and drink them yourself." Jingliu reached out and gently stroked my forehead. "Have you rested well during this period? Do you want to take a nap first? I'll help you make the bed."

"No need, I slept on the plane." I squeezed Jingliu's soft hand. After all, I was always on the move in the United States, so I didn't even have to adjust to the time difference, which was quite convenient. "I'll take a quick shower and go to the training room to see them in a bit. Please prepare breakfast for me."

"Okay. I'll go get you some clean clothes first." After saying that, Jingliu ran out excitedly.

Seeing her happy face, I couldn't help but shake my head and laugh. Maybe she was bored because she hadn't seen me for a long time. "Huh... It feels good to be at home."

————The scent of orchids, the scent of lavender, the scent of home & the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians————

After taking a comfortable shower and eating the breakfast prepared by Jingliu, I came to the training ground. When I walked in, the three children were concentrating on rapid-fire target shooting and did not notice my presence. After they finished a round, I couldn't help but nod with satisfaction when I saw that they all scored 850+. In two weeks, these little guys really didn't slack off, and Ling's score has even exceeded 900, which makes me feel very gratified. I couldn't help but praise them out loud. "Wow, you guys are quite hardworking."

"Eh?"

Hearing the sound, the three children turned back to look in my direction. Soon, the surprise in their eyes turned into joy.

"You bastard! You still remember to come back!" Ling's big purple eyes were filled with tears. She rushed towards me without saying a word. However, this time it was not a hug like before, but a slightly tender little fist, waving towards me at a very fast speed.

"Wow." I stepped aside and dodged Ling's attack while joking. "This is the first time I've seen such a way of greeting. What, has the two weeks of physical training made you more confident? Are you going to attack me?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Watch out!" Ling yelled angrily, and then continued to attack me. I chose to dodge, and ran towards the large open space in the middle of the venue, because there, I could fully review Ling's progress in the past two weeks. I didn't run two steps before I turned around and blocked Ling's fist. After two weeks of physical training, Ling is no longer the little girl who can be exhausted by me just by dodging. When I blocked that punch, I also fully felt the pain on the fist that made me feel a little numb. It seems that Ling really completed the training in the past two weeks very seriously, otherwise she would not have become stronger so quickly.

"Not bad, with such speed and strength, it seems you didn't slack off."

"You've been lazy for two weeks and have become slow." Ling insisted. After two weeks of no contact, Ling's longing for me is probably as much as Shiho and Shizuru. And I can understand her way of giving back. "If you have the guts, let go of my gravity ring and have a good fight with me!"

Buzz. Ding, ding.

As soon as I finished speaking, the five gravity rings on Ling's body fell to the ground with a clang, and I shook the remote control in my hand. "The shackles have been unlocked, please start your performance."

"Hmph, you better be careful then!" After moving her arms and legs, Ling rushed towards me again. This time, she was even faster.

"Not bad. Your speed has improved a lot." I praised, and then stretched out my hand to block her flying kick, which made my body pause slightly. "Your strength is also much stronger."

"Of course, I have completed the training task in excess in the past two weeks, don't underestimate me!" Ling said with a confident smile after landing. "You better be careful next time, don't let me take you away!" After saying that, Ling rushed up with a quick step, followed by a set of combined combo moves. With her fists and feet, she had the style of a real fighting master. However, that was only limited to a few scales. After all, what the organization taught her in three years was only the killer boxing and basic moves of coach Rum. As for my own set of attack methods, Ling didn't learn them at all. But if it was Rum standing in front of Ling now, I believe she could have practiced with Rum for several hours without losing.

Bang!Bang!
Fists and feet collided, and Ling's tricky attack angle and force were enough for me to take seriously. I couldn't help but lose the playfulness on my face, replaced by a serious and stern look.

"No, it's still slow! You can go faster!" I began to correct Ling's shortcomings.

"The kick angle is too high and your body balance is unstable. Otherwise you could have kicked again!"

"The punching angles are good, but the changes are too rigid. The order of the three changes is the same. Are you kidding me?"

Bang!
"One punch and you're down? Didn't I tell you to try your best to keep yourself stable when doing a somersault? Try again!"

“Do you understand how to release the force? Release the force! I’ve taught you for nothing. Even if you can’t release all the force, you won’t be kicked away by me, right? Really. Taichi, Mari, come on together!”

"Cooperate, cooperate! I'm not letting you play to cause trouble to each other!"

"Taiyi, watch your and Ling's movements. You've blocked the way three times. Mary, don't just stand there and move forward. And Ling, your..."

. . . . . .

Time passed by minute by minute, and when I was so tired that I knelt on one leg and the children were so tired that they lay on the ground with their legs spread out, the whole morning had passed.

"Oh~ It feels so good." I panted heavily and relaxed my body. "It's been a long time since I had such a good fight."

"... sniff... oooo." On the other side, Ling, who had fallen to the ground, felt a little sore in her nose, and she kept sniffing, with big tears rolling in her eyes. "Why, I have tried so hard. Why can't I beat you? I won't accept it, I won't accept it!!!" As soon as she finished speaking, the grievance finally burst out, and the tears in her eyes burst out.

"Silly girl. How long have you been training?" I stood up and picked up Ling who was lying on the ground. I walked to the sofa in the rest area. "After three years of training, you have been able to integrate everything Rum taught you. In two weeks, your physical fitness, strength, and speed have all made a qualitative leap. Ling, you have done very well." I reached out and rubbed the purple long hair that I couldn't let go of. "In two weeks, without me being around, you have grown to such a level. My evaluation for you is. Full marks! Of course, you must continue to work hard in the future training. I believe in you. One day, you will catch up with me and fight side by side with me!"

"Bing... wuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!" Ling got the evaluation she wanted, and the grievance in her eyes burst out again, because she saw the reward of her efforts in the past two weeks. A reward that she was most eager to know.

One, recognition from Bing.
