When studying ELF and LOL, you should investigate ELF-pi and LOL-pi, rather than total ELF and LOL, because the main difference of aromaticity between these two molecules comes from remarkably different behavior of pi electrons.
Analysis of six-center bond order (total or pi-electron only) should not be omitted, this is much more meaningful than analyzing Mayer bond order between neighboring atoms in the ring.
Through out the present study, I found only NICS explains the different aromaticity of the two molecules. Notice that the caption of Tables 5 and 6 is not appropriate, since NICS is defined as negative of magnetic shielding value.

1, the plots of ELF-pi and LOL-pi have been plotted and analyzed in the new article.

2, the analysis of six-center bond order of two molecules have been computed.

3, the captions of Tables 5 and 6 have been modified.

4, the new article modified has been uploaded.
