"Absolutely can't take it off? It's a pity that your proud mask has collapsed."

Ivan looked at her with a sneer, and saw a beautiful and indifferent face from the shattered light in the glass bottle.

The head on the snow-white neck seemed to be an exquisite work of art, even the beautiful Mines could hardly see such a perfect face shape.The curved arc of the porcelain-like chin seems to be the most ingenious pen of the artist, making people want to copy it.

Her blue and purple pupils are like a pair of jewels, her lips are tightly pressed, and her two thin sword eyebrows under her forehead-level bangs are slightly frowned, giving people a serious feeling.The straight, slender nose seems to represent the girl's strong and tough character, and her pale face due to injury adds to her fragility.A head of beautiful black hair undisguisedly hangs over her shoulders and shirt, making her look like a goddess, holy and ethereal.

"The mask...disappeared?"

Before Ivan could ask, Tachibana suddenly parted the hair on his forehead with his slender fingers, and slowly stroked his face.After confirming that the black shadow mask had collapsed, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and her thin sword eyebrows curved into a shape of joy:

"My name is Tachibana, the organization's killer, code-named Nijia. Because you killed Mostima and did an unforgivable thing, I was ordered to kill you. The reason for the sudden attack was that the previous meeting had made You are on guard, so you need to die once, to dispel your doubts."

"Is this considered a voluntary confession? Very good, very good, since you are so sensible, I will not use the punishment!"

Ivan was a little surprised to see her suddenly speak, and continued to ask along the topic:

"You didn't come alone, did you? Who is your partner!?"

"My partner..."

The orange slender and heroic black eyebrows were tangled together, revealing a ray of sadness, and he opened his mouth several times and then suddenly closed it.After struggling, a dull smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said helplessly:

"I cannot disclose the identity information of the owner."

"Still not cooperating!?" Ivan furrowed his eyebrows, and immediately revealed an angry expression.

"..."

At this moment, Tachibana's smile disappeared, her brows were wrinkled sadly, and she looked at him with melancholy eyes.Although she didn't say anything, the expression on her face calmed down Ivan who was about to be tortured.

"Are you...are you suffering from some spiritual restrictions?" He asked dubiously.

"Yes."

She nodded, with a calm expression like a lake, a stiff look appeared on her clear face, her bright red lips parted slightly, and she asked abruptly: "Do you want to keep a pet?"

"What pet? What do you want to express?" Ivan showed an angry look again, and began to suspect that this guy was talking nonsense and interfering with his thoughts.

"Do you want to keep a pet?" Ju looked up his cold face, his strange eyes shone brightly, and said word by word: "Unless the owner allows me, I can't disclose any information."

"..." Ivan was a little dazed by her inexplicable words.

Without waiting for the other party to ask questions, she said something even more inexplicable: "I am the killer of the organization, but also the tool of the master. The orders of the master are everything to me, and I cannot lie in front of the master."

"Do you want to keep a pet?" Tachibana puffed up her chest, and her full and plump chest bounced naturally.

"I probably understand."

A flash of inspiration flashed in Yiwen's heart, he nodded silently, and said according to his feeling: "I am the master, and you are my pet, is that the case?"

Hearing what he said, Ju's expression immediately softened, he lowered his head obediently, looked at the bottom of the glass jar, and murmured in response: "Yes, I am your pet, and you are the master. Pets cannot refuse Questions from the owner... the pet must answer the questions from the owners..."

After slowly saying these words, she raised her face softly, her hair parted on both sides, revealing a clear and beautiful face, and smiled lightly at Ivan with a smile that melted from an iceberg.She smiled happily, with a contented expression, like a child who was detained since childhood and tasted candy for the first time.

"Besides you, how many other killers are there?" Ivan asked tentatively.

"A partner, a guide, my partner is the clown master, and the guide didn't disclose any information." Orange replied obediently.

"There are only three people? How about the strength of the other two?"

"I am the trump card of this mission. The strength of the clown master is inferior to mine, and the ability of the guide is unknown. But his mission is to be in charge of intelligence work, and the cadres who are responsible for this kind of work in the organization are all civilians, and their strength will not be very high. " she answered patiently.

"Very well, where are their specific locations!?" Ivan continued to ask.

"Eastern City, Graycastle Manor, Building No. [-] in six buildings."

"To be so obedient and explain everything... It's a bit suspicious." Seeing the obedient and obedient expression of 'Thumbelina', he always felt a little uneasy.

one-one-one-one

In order to dispel the doubts in his heart, Yiwen chose to continue to ask:

"What is going on with the organization you mentioned? Who is the person in charge? What is the specific conspiracy?"

"..."

Ju lightly opened her bright red lips, and was about to reply, when suddenly her body froze and her expression froze, with a somewhat struggling look on her face.A few seconds later, she lowered her shoulders, her eyes were filled with misty mist, and she murmured:

"You are my master, and the clown is also my master. He doesn't allow me to leak information about the organization."

Ivan already had a general understanding of her situation at this time, so he used another method to probe: "You only have one master, and that is me. Answer me, what is an organization?"

She stared at the other party dimly with a pair of sparkling eyes, her expression changed a few times, and she suddenly calmed down strangely: "I can't answer your question unless... the clown master disappears forever."

"I don't know why... I vaguely feel that you really want the clown to die?"

Yiwen suddenly moved closer to the glass jar, looked at the 'Thumbelina' who was still kneeling, and suddenly smiled in relief:

"It's hard for me to be sure if you're telling the truth or a hoax. But everything will be revealed soon. Neither you nor your clown master know my true skills. Now I'm going to Graycastle Manor, in front of you Rip that funny clown to pieces!"

"Then please be careful with me... Even Tachibana's body is far superior to a fourth-level mechanic, and Claire is stronger than me." She reminded softly.

"Aren't there only three people? What's going on with Claire!?" Ivan asked calmly.

"Claire is the other side of Tachibana, another personality. She is the older sister and the most cruel and bloodthirsty killer in the organization. Unlike Tachibana, Claire is not under the control of the clown master and retains a considerable amount of resistance. Consciousness. But she also has a weakness, that is the ring on the left ring finger of the clown master, and that ring is a prop to control personality switching."

Tachibana blinked, and after a little thought, he continued: "You just need to cut off the clown master's finger and grab the ring, and you can turn Claire back into Tachibana. After that, return my avatar to the main body, As long as she accepts my memory, she will become a pet that is completely loyal to you."

"..."

Yiwen had nothing to say at this time, looking at the submissive 'Thumbelina' in the jar, he felt mixed feelings.If he hadn't seen this female killer, he probably wouldn't have believed in his life that there would be someone in the world who was so active in plotting against him.

As for whether what she said is true, he naturally has a way to verify it one by one—whether it is the "divine eye" bestowed by the scriptures of the underworld, or with the help of the vision of the evil king Bardock, he can observe things from a very long distance .

Graycastle Manor, Building No. [-] in six buildings.

The morning light penetrated into the window of the room. Under the misty light, it looked like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl was sitting on a bench by the window. A pair of pupils of different colors flickered slightly, as if she was immersed in her own fantasy world.

There is only a bed, a desk, and a chair beside her.She sat on the bench with her legs crossed, and the shadow of the bench extended infinitely backwards along the moonlight, blending into the dark wall, projecting a boundless space.

"The sense of the clone...disappeared." Tachibana raised his head suddenly and murmured.

"What do you mean by disappearing?" A male voice suddenly came out from the dark room.
