EVA: Shinji Ikari Returns from the Dragon Clan - Chapter 236 234 Confession

Last train.

Shinji Ikari stood on the empty train platform, the white lights illuminated the platform like daylight. He thought that no one would take the train at this time, but he didn't expect that there was a bearded uncle sitting on the seat waiting for the train like a corporate slave who just got off work.

No.

That should be someone from the Intelligence Department.

Ms. Misato is right, it is very difficult to bypass the headquarters.

"People from the Intelligence Department have been monitoring themselves."

he said in his heart.

Come to think of it, since they are the people who save the world, the headquarters will definitely send people to monitor them.

One day, the hero who saved the world slipped and fell in a remote place. No one came to rescue him and he died alone. He was on TV news the next day. This ending is funny to think about.

Shinji Ikari didn't cast any more glances in that direction.

After waiting for a while, the last train arrived. He boarded the train, and the bearded uncle followed closely behind him. The two were not in the same car, but just kept a distance so that they could vaguely see each other.

On the tram.

Logically speaking, he had already broken up with Asuka, and their current relationship could only be considered ambiguous, not dating. His official girlfriend was Ayanami Rei. However, if he confessed his love to Asuka, he might have to choose between the two immediately. The young lady might think that this was the moment to make a decision. But he didn't want to give up on either side... This idea was more like a scumbag, but he couldn't just leave the girl hanging without responding. He was definitely not that kind of person.

So troubled.

Both girls were within reach, within reach, but he could only grab one. What was this? A happy annoyance? Or was it just the surging male hormones of puberty?Which side should I choose?

Asuka is of course very good. She is the ace of the European Air Force. She has completed her university studies and inherited her mother's inheritance. She has saved enough money since she was a child to be called a rich woman. If you choose her, you don't have to worry about money in the future. Moreover, she is so gullible. She likes me to death. She is not afraid of golden eyes and tells me that her eyes are beautiful.

What's more, she is only this age, and she still has a lot of growth to do. The eldest daughter is so beautiful now, and who knows how beautiful she will be in the future. She is a real princess, and even her body is a natural person. There are no ethical issues, and it doesn't matter how many children she has.

In short, Asuka is good in everything. If the two like each other to the same extent, the eldest lady has too many advantages. Compared with her, Ayanami Rei has a lot of disadvantages. There is no way she can win without some behind-the-scenes manipulation.

When you think about it this way, it really is a bad thing.

What are Rei Ayanami's advantages? Think about it. The feeling of blood sorrow of the same kind, the obedient attribute of being obedient and clapping when playing the cello, the serious expression of listening attentively to whatever is said, the temperament of a good wife and a loving mother, the rolling of countless nights... There is no need to think about this. In short, Rei Ayanami cannot be completely given up. Even if she only has less than a year...less than a few months left to live, he is unwilling to let go.

Shinji Ikari leaned back and half lay on the tram seat.

At this time, I don't know what Asuka is doing lying on the hospital bed, but I think Rei Ayanami has helped prepare dinner and is waiting for him in the living room of the apartment. When I think of this, Ikari Shinji feels guilty. Especially since he is still thinking about "making up" for his confession to Asuka, feeling the shaking of the train, he thinks it would be great if the train could keep running, until the end of time.

Sadly, everything has an end.

Bang bang bang.

The platform was quite deserted. No one came to take the last train at this time. This was normal. Ikari Shinji got off the train, but the uncle did not follow him. The two went in different directions.

Is there no surveillance? Or did he guess wrong? Ikari Shinji was still confused, but he immediately realized that he must be going home at this late hour. It was just one road, so it didn't matter if there was surveillance or not. And if someone was following him all the time, he would have spotted the stalker if he was a little more observant.

I guess there must be someone watching me outside my apartment. Fortunately, technology these days is still limited to closed-circuit surveillance cameras.

With the help of street lights, Shinji Ikari walked towards home.

"I'm back," he said.

No one responded. After changing his shoes at the entrance, Shinji Ikari walked into the bright living room. Dinner was already set on the table, and the food was still warm, but there was no sign of Rei Ayanami.

Not in the living room...

Ikari Shinji was stunned.

In other words, Rei Ayanami is still in the apartment.

He searched the apartment.

Master bedroom, bathroom...

It didn't take long for Shinji Ikari to find the girl on the balcony.

That is the direction of the underground city.

Shinji Ikari couldn't see her face from behind, he could only see Rei Ayanami's back.

For some reason, looking at Rei Ayanami like this, he suddenly felt an inexplicable creepy feeling, as if he saw a female ghost with her back turned in a horror movie in the dark, with long black hair cascading to the soles of her feet and her toes standing on tiptoe. Once she opened her mouth, the female ghost would turn around and reveal a terrifying ghost face.

He made loud enough noises in the apartment, but the girl remained silent.

"..."

Hearing his voice, the ghost girl... the beautiful blue-haired girl slowly turned around, her red eyes were a little empty, staring straight at Shinji Ikari's face, as if she was trying to identify something, she had a certain inhuman feeling. He remembered the feeling he had when he first met Rei Ayanami, and it was somewhat similar to that time. Maybe it was an illusion, Shinji Ikari always felt that the lights of the distant city had a layer of halo around her body.

"Ikari...kun?"

"...?"

Ayanami Rei?No, not at all.

A thought suddenly arose in Shinji Ikari's mind that even he himself found unbelievable. The face he saw was clearly Rei Ayanami, and even the figure was exactly the same as the girl he was familiar with, but he suddenly felt that the girl in front of him was so strange.

Is this really Ayanami?Undoubtedly, the mixed-race intuition told Shinji Ikari that the person in front of him was definitely not Ayanami, but some other uninvited guest, an alien, a ghost, or something like that. This inexplicable intuition made his back cold, his breathing became rapid, and he stared at the other person blankly.

This girl is not Ayanami.

This is not a figure of speech, it is literally what it says. Ikari Shinji does not think that this is just a change in the girl's personality, or that she wants to play a trick on him, but he firmly believes that the girl standing on the balcony is something disguised as his girlfriend, Rei Ayanami.

Why would I think like that? Am I too sleepy and confused?Shinji Ikari stood there in a daze, trying to prove that what he saw was just a dream. However, he was not the type to deceive himself, so he quickly realized the reality: yes, the girl in front of him was not Rei Ayanami, but something else. His intuition told him so. If he were an ordinary person, he would definitely be more willing to believe his own thinking; but now that he was a mixed-race, he believed in his body's "intuition" more.

Mystique? Some kind of superpower? Polyjuice Potion? A potion that can turn you into someone else by adding their hair? Such fantasies emerged in Shinji Ikari's mind. He didn't have much fear in his heart. After all, the physical fitness of the hybrids was there. He just had a huge doubt.

However, this strange feeling disappeared within seconds.

she said softly.

The empty eyes disappeared, and the familiar Ayanami Rei returned. The beautiful girl with red eyes blinked slightly, as if wondering why his face was so stiff.

Was what just happened an illusion?Shinji Ikari looked at Rei Ayanami who was still standing on the balcony and immediately dismissed such thoughts. He asked the original question again:

"Ayanami, why are you standing here on the balcony?"

The girl looked around and seemed to realize something. She stammered:“He is… drawing me.”
