"Hange! The ship's already leaving! Hurry back!" Moblit called anxiously as he looked at the crowd on shore.
"Huh? Four-Eyes?" Levi looked toward Hange on shore.
"Hange's been holed up in the lab all this time and wouldn't let anyone in. I think we forgot to tell her. Oh no, what do we do now?" Armin said, panic written across his face.
"Although Hange really should be attending, we have no spare documents left. There's nothing we can do," Erwin said calmly, preparing to turn away.
Clack! A grappling hook sank into the wall along the transport ship's side.
"Damn it! How could I miss the Survey Corps' first overseas expedition?!" Hange flew straight up and tumbled onto the deck.
Chen Si looked speechless. They really had forgotten about Hange earlier.
"What now? We're one set of documents short," Jean said helplessly.
"So we need documents too? Ahahahaha." Hange scratched her head awkwardly.
"We have no choice. Chris, we'll have to rely on you to help once we get there," Chen Si said, turning to Chris.
"One hundred tubes of lipstick," Chris said flatly.
"That was an order," Chen Si said authoritatively.
"Mikasa, it's been ages since we girls had a proper chat." Chris slipped an arm around Mikasa and flashed a radiant smile.
The corner of Chen Si's mouth twitched at that, and he could not help smiling as he said:
"What's a hundred tubes? How about I clean out every luxury cosmetics shop in Marley for you?"
"Not a bad idea," Chris said, thoroughly pleased.
Mikasa felt something strange. Her arm suddenly seemed to be nestled against something soft, and she immediately grew wary. Chris had quite a figure. Could Older Brother have feelings for her?
Mikasa glanced at Mike beside them and breathed a sigh of relief.
