Chapter 231 229. The Miss with HeadacheIn response to her words, Ikari Shinji, who was accompanying her nearby, pinched her face without any hesitation as a revenge. The young lady's cheeks were very soft, as soft as pie dumplings, and he wanted to pinch them again and again.
hateful.
How dare you pull your own face.
Even though she was lying on the hospital bed, Asuka immediately opened her mouth and wanted to bite him. However, when she stood up and was about to move, her head suddenly buzzed, accompanied by severe pain. Seeing this, Shinji Ikari had to stop dodging, so she did bite him, but it was more like she was holding Shinji Ikari's finger in her mouth.
She tried to speak something garbled in her throat.
Ikari Shinji took his finger back, wiped the girl's saliva from it, and asked:"Does your head hurt?"
"It hurts so much," she said weakly.
"If you know it hurts, just rest more. You'll have to stay in the hospital for another half a month this time."
"Why so long?"
"After all, it's a wound on the head, and there's also the erosion from the previous apostles."
Shinji Ikari saw her discontented expression, and he could understand Asuka's feelings. Letting a lively young lady lie in bed for half a month is no different from being in jail. Although Asuka has been in jail once, no one wants to be in jail a second time. Even he would not be willing to be hospitalized for half a month.
The eldest lady continued to ask:"When I passed out, the apostles were annihilated, right?"
"Ah."
Asuka breathed a sigh of relief when she heard his affirmative words.
Shinji Ikari looked at her lying on the bed, weak but relaxed. The girl was wearing a hospital gown, with her long golden hair loose. Asuka withstood all the mental attacks of the Fifteenth Angel. This was the main reason why she needed to be hospitalized. If there was only one casualty in the annihilation of the Fifteenth Angel, it was Asuka. If she hadn't withstood it, the battle might have been more troublesome.
After thinking for a while, Shinji Ikari praised earnestly:"Asuka, you fought really well this time."
"lie?"
"Of course not. I can't do better even if I come."
Asuka's mouth suddenly pulled into a smile, her beautiful eyes curved, dazzling as if there was a halo, and when she saw Shinji Ikari looking at her, she immediately restrained her smile. What, did Shinji think she was the kind of person who would be happy if she was just praised? And she was already very powerful!This time, Unit-01 did not play at all, and she and the top students alone dealt with the apostles.
As for the credit.
Top students have always been in supporting positions, so who made the greatest contribution this time?
No further words needed.
Seeing her mood improved, Ikari Shinji also felt good. He was still worried about the Human Completion Project, and seeing Asuka like this, his worries were much relieved. Although he wanted to talk to Asuka about this, Asuka needed to rest now, so he should stop thinking about those annoying things. If he talked to her about such complicated things, she might have to stay in the hospital for a few more days.
Let's tell her when she's a little better.
As he was thinking, Ikari Shinji handed over the lunch box, which contained porridge that was easy to digest. Asuka had just woken up, and although she was on an IV drip, she must be hungry after sleeping for so long.
However, Asuka had no intention of taking the lunch box. She just leaned against the wall behind the bed and stared at him without blinking, as if hinting at something. But Ikari Shinji was not a worm in her stomach, so he didn't understand what this look meant, so he had to ask:"what happened?"
"I feel pain when I use my brain. I try to sleep but I am so awake that I can't fall asleep."
She looked at me with pitiful eyes. Asuka's tone was as if she was being willful and coquettish, with a kind of naive temperament."I don't want to eat."
At this point, how could Ikari Shinji not know what Asuka wanted him to do? He is really like a child. But the world is big, and the patient is the biggest. Asuka's face still has a lingering paleness, which is comparable to the last time she was hospitalized... By the way, this hospitalization coincides with her menstrual period, which is about a week away?This is too bad luck.
Shinji Ikari shook off the thought from his mind. The porridge in the lunch box was still warm and the aroma filled the ward. Asuka, who had slept for a long time, had a rumbling stomach.
Just feed it.
Shinji Ikari had one hand held by her, so he fed her porridge one spoonful at a time with one hand, taking good care of the young lady during her meal... Damn, it sounded like a servant of some unruly young lady. Fortunately, Asuka sipped the porridge obediently and did not cause any trouble.
After finishing the porridge, the full young lady looked lazy.
Shinji Ikari said casually:"The monitor and Miss Misato came to visit you before."
"Hikari? Misato? Where are they?"
"Of course they've left," he said. "Did you ask them when they'll come next time?"
"without……"
"Shinji, you idiot, you have to ask. If I fall asleep by then, they will have made a wasted trip." Miss Asuka gave instructions.
"Know it."
Shinji Ikari said helplessly. After all, the last time Asuka was hospitalized, she didn't sleep so long, and he had forgotten about it. Due to her head injury, it can be expected that Asuka will often sleep during this hospitalization. Maybe he will have to set a special time for the next visit.
"How's my Unit 2?" she immediately asked the question that concerned her most.
"It's repaired, and we're just waiting for you as the driver."
"Can I be discharged early?"
"Don't even think about it."
"Well, if it's not possible, then it's not possible."
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked yet, how long have I been unconscious?"
"..."
……
As we chatted, more than an hour passed.
Time passed quickly without him noticing. When Shinji Ikari recalled, he felt that the things they talked about were not substantial. He didn't know how he could talk to Asuka for so long. He couldn't help but feel a little regretful. After all, Asuka was still a patient. How could he talk to a patient for so long?
Do you want the patient to get better quickly?
He stopped talking, and the ward suddenly fell silent. It was almost afternoon, and the weather outside was cloudy. The gray clouds were accumulating some kind of power, and the light in the ward did not change much.
Asuka had just finished her meal. Although she had just woken up, she was still sleepy after digesting the food and yawned immediately. The girl's eyes half-opened at first, and then suddenly shook her body. Her head trembled like a chicken pecking at rice, and the pain in her head made Asuka wake up suddenly.
Shinji Ikari watched her struggle between lucidity and confusion, and quickly helped pass the medicine and water prescribed by the doctor on the table next to her. After she swallowed the medicine, he said:
"Let's sleep some more."
"Remember to bring me dinner." Asuka said dazedly.
"Well." Ikari Shinji said again, "If you find being in the hospital boring, I'll bring you some simple books to read."
"it is good."
Asuka said this and fell asleep.
Her sleeping face was a little uneasy at first, but as the drug took effect, the unevenness of her brows gradually eased. Ikari Shinji looked at the girl who had been holding his hand for more than an hour and smiled helplessly. He gently pulled his hand away and looked at the girl's peaceful sleeping face. The weakness on her body was slightly alleviated, but she still looked like a sick beauty, and was really not as lively as she used to be.
Come back in the evening.
Ikari Shinji thought.
In the next few days, he will come to visit Asuka, but he still has some business to do. His goal in the next few days is to discuss the plan with Miss Misato, or to find Miss Makiba and exchange information with her about the forces behind her, maybe he can find an ally.
And now there is a problem that needs to be solved.
Shinji Ikari remembered that Kaji Ryoji had said in the recorder that Seele had captured Vice Commander Fuyutsuki in order to give an explanation. Now Vice Commander Fuyutsuki was secretly released and returned to the headquarters without any explanation. It was like when two sides were fighting and one side was defeated, the defeated side sent a hostage, but the hostage was secretly released. So is this the end of the matter?
He didn't think it was that simple.
but.
Is it possible to capture Deputy Commander Dong Yue again?
