I took a backpack casually, filled it with some miscellaneous grains and a change of laundry, and then took the morning train to the location on the data sheet.

so many people!So crowded!

This is the first time in her life that she has been crowded by many people like a meatloaf on a train. There are many people going down and coming up at each station. This kind of crowd makes Xi feel tired and afraid. She is very worried that she will not be able to Will not be able to get off, worry about whether I will get off early, worry about myself...

In short, she is very nervous now!

In the afternoon, the crowds in the corridor of the car gradually thinned out, and there was an extra empty seat by the window. Xi secretly happily ran to sit down with her backpack in her arms, and leaned comfortably on the back of the chair to watch quietly. The scenery outside the window.

The beautiful scenery outside the window made her a little obsessed, with a contented expression and a sweet smile on her face, the man in the seat beside her couldn't help asking:

"Why can the scenery of mountains, forests and fields make you so happy?"

Xi turned to look at the man with back hair sitting next to her, and replied casually:

"Because I have never seen such a scenery before!"

Thinking of the place that Jin took her to, although it was not beautiful, the feeling outside the window was very different from the place Jin took her to.

"Why have you never seen it?"

"Uncle, you are so strange!" She paused, "Not everyone has seen it."

"..."

Seeing the man was silent, she continued to enjoy the scenery outside the window.

After a while, the man said again: "...ma'am, do I look like an uncle?"

"...No, isn't it..."

Xi explained his opinion with some embarrassment:

"I, I've read it in books... Most of the authors describe middle-aged men's hairstyles as combing and combing their backs..."

"Everyone's age is not judged by their hairstyle." The man's words were somewhat corrective, but his tone was extremely gentle.

"Uh…"

She was a little overwhelmed, and the man said again: "From what you said, you seem to have read a lot of books..."

Although it was a little uncomfortable for a man to be called uncle, he sensed her panic and stopped making things difficult.

"..."

She didn't know how to answer, so she didn't respond to his words.

"Do you like reading?" The man smiled.

"I like it." She lowered her head.

"I also like reading! It's a great honor to meet like-minded book friends. My name is Kuroro Luxilu, how about you?"

Like-minded book friends? !He likes reading as much as himself, so is he a book friend?

She was a little scared at first, but when she heard what the other party said, she immediately turned into a happy mood.

"My name is Xi!", this is the first time for her to make friends with someone who likes to read, so she is very excited.

"Hehe...", Wen Ru chuckled a few times, and asked curiously, "Is your name only one word?"

Maybe it was because of the relationship of becoming a book friend, she let go of her guard.

"Yeah! When I was born, I only heard someone say Xi to me all the time, so I thought it should be my name!"

"What's your last name?"

"I don't know, I... lost my family when I was a child."

Lying made her eyes wander, and she turned her head.

"That's it..." Kuroro responded naturally, and said, "Where are you going?"

"Hmm... the northeast of the Batocia Republic."

"What a coincidence, we're going there too."

"!", she was taken aback, "What a coincidence!"

He, he made us mean... who?

Seeing her puzzled expression, Kuroro called a short-haired woman who had been standing across from her for a long time, and then kindly introduced her friend to him.

"This is Paknotan, the person who is traveling with me."

The short-haired woman stared at Xi blankly, then slowly reached out her hand to hold her hand gently and friendly.

"Hi, my name is Paknotan, who are you?"

"You... hello, my name is Xi."

After Xi finished his introduction, Paknotan walked back to where he was just now, as if nothing had happened.

"May I ask, what is your purpose for going to the northeast?" Kuroro continued the topic.

I saw that she hesitated for a long time, her face twisted into a ball.

"Sorry, I can't say...", she looked away from him.

Since it is bad to deceive a friend, but I don't want to tell the purpose, so I have to say this... Originally, I also wanted to ask the other party what to do, but I didn't answer, so how dare I ask others!

Even if she didn't say it, the expression on her face spoke for herself, and Kurolo told Xi automatically:

"We... are going to the northeast to hunt for treasure."

He specially used the word 'treasure hunt', which aroused her curiosity, and her eyes lit up at him immediately.

"Treasure hunt!?"

She recalled the books she had read, and said, "'Treasure hunting is in an unknown area, use the only clues to discover treasures',...it's great!! What is the treasure you are looking for?? ?”

Facing her eagerness, Kuroro's smile deepened.

"Hmm... what do you think?"

She froze for a moment, put her hand on her chin, and then fell into thinking.

"Hmm... Treasures, most of them are things left by the ancestors..." She had a flash of inspiration, and she turned to Kuroro very excitedly, "Is it an antique?"

"No! Guess again──"

Looking at her innocent eyes and innocent curiosity, not only that, but also a little more playfulness, which made him laugh a little.

"Hmm..." After a pause, "Is there a stone tablet with engraved characters?"

"Hehe - not really, let me give you some hints!"

Then at the moment of his gentle smile, she suddenly felt a huge and aggressive danger.

Even if that trace of danger only existed for a few seconds, it was enough to make Xi look tense, revealing a breath of restlessness.

"It's a powerful ability that is extremely useful."

I already knew the other party's unstable factors, but I continued to ask and answer calmly, and deliberately added: "What's the matter? Your complexion seems not very good."

Coincidentally, when Kuroro finished speaking, the train just arrived at its destination.

Xi secretly felt lucky, and hurriedly got out of the car after a few casual words.

The eyes that stayed on her back did not move, Pike walked to his side, and asked calmly:

"Captain, the target is her, do you want to chase her?" Then he naturally made preparations.

"No hurry, we will meet again anyway." He got out of the car slowly.

"By the way~ Leader, how do you know?" A man with a baby face suddenly appeared behind Kuroro, asking curiously.

"I didn't know at first, but her behavior and expression after she sat down made me a little confused, so I started talking to her," he walked towards a tea house, "and then I knew that."

After he finished his concise explanation, he asked Pike to order a cup of tea casually, and then said to the baby-faced knight with a serious face:

"Keep an eye on her, act at night."

---------------------------------------

Xi has been walking in a hurry since getting off the car, so he got lost in the track and field.

She punched herself on the head dejectedly, regretting that her panic had led to her current situation.

Now how to do?The street signs here can't be read at all, and there are almost no people at all, where is she running to? ? ? -ah!Have!

She jumped onto the small hill behind and browsed the distant scenery. She saw the station several miles away from her, saw some small villages, and even further away saw...strange buildings?

Taking out the indicator, the building in the distance is in the northeast, and my intuition tells me that it is exactly where she is going!

Recalling the pain that made her feel miserable at that time, and thinking about now that she was about to kill those who once controlled her, she was so excited and excited beyond words.

The color of the tightly constricted pupils changed slightly due to her emotional instability, and the joy of being about to be truly free made the corners of her mouth bend deeply.

She sat on the ground, took out the information given by the killer from her backpack, read it again intently, and the weird expression she showed just now returned to its original appearance.

According to the intelligence above, the security at night is more stringent than in the morning.

So, is it time to act now?

She shook her head.

No, it's almost evening now, if that's the case, the action should be tomorrow...

Why don't we go and check it out tonight.

──This was a thought that came to her suddenly.

----------------------------------------

At ten o'clock in the evening, Xi changed into black clothes, carefully climbed to the top of a tree with a moderate distance, and watched the gate of the building from afar.

The color of the pupils turned golden, and the fingers slowly swirled around to test whether the building was magnetic or not. After a few minutes, the color of the pupils turned back to dark.

Although this building only has a few magnetic substances, it can still be manipulated by her!

The result of the discussion made her smile with satisfaction.

Then she moved to another treetop that was more hidden, turned golden, raised her left hand, a little magnetic substance on the object turned into a small sharp blade, and with a swipe of her finger out of thin air, the sharp blade moved towards the corner of solitude The guard pierced the back of the head, fell down, and returned the sharp blade to its original position, and the whole movement was done in one go.

After the test was over, her self-confidence instantly soared.

But just when she was happy, a familiar voice suddenly came from her ear:

"If you want to obliterate them, you won't be able to do it with your ability alone."

Fear struck with the sound, Xi turned her head suddenly, staring at the person who was less than [-] centimeters away from her with wide eyes, and she also found that besides the person in front of her, there were several more men and women behind her.

"...Mr. Kuroro...the treasure you mentioned...is here?" She was a little scared, pointing her finger at the building stupidly.

Kuroro shook his head, "It's right in front of my eyes."

Hearing that, he subconsciously made a quick escape movement, but the latter was faster and caught Xi with one hand.

What happened right now was unexpected, making her anxious and panicked, and she desperately struggled to free the hand that wrapped her body.

"Let go of me!" Her eyes were covered with mist.

"What are you going to do──!?"

He covered her mouth with his other hand a little too loudly.

"I'll let you go and ask you a few questions."

Before she could nod and let go of her, a book suddenly appeared in Kuroro's hand.

"What was your ability just now?"

"..."

Head down, do not want to answer.

"You also understand that you don't have the right to refuse to answer now." He brushed away the fragments of hair on her face.

At this moment, she felt her own weakness again.

"...Magnetic force.", answered truthfully.

"Can I have a look at the media?"

"There is no substance that can be used here now, so it cannot be used."

"There." He pointed to a building in the distance.

His reminder made her think of a chance to escape. Although the chance was not great, it was worth a try.

"Well, it's easier for me to get closer."

"Don't play tricks, you know you can't escape."

Kuroro glanced at her, then lifted her up and headed towards the building, followed closely by the regiment members behind her.

Just in case, Kuroro asked the team members behind him to kill all the guards outside the building.

In less than a few minutes, there were corpses all over the ground below, their powerful and swift force made Xi tremble involuntarily.

She knew that she had completely become a prey with no way out.

Still, she's going to try!

"You can use it now."

As usual, her eyes turned golden, she raised her hands, and gestured towards the building out of thin air, and then the potential magnetic material of the building was shaken, and the building was torn apart in the blink of an eye.

Sure enough, it was still a little trick.

Kuroro's complexion did not change due to what happened in front of him.

People in the building ran out one after another, and several powerful opponents among them saw their group and approached with lightning speed, all guarded tightly, facing the attack of those people head on.

Then Xi ran towards the magnetic substance she gathered, and quickly covered her side with countless spikes, defending while fleeing.

"Hehe──this is your ability to show off your ability", do not break the master's attack Q stone or linger in the bag Gray badger cuts the hope of escape?br>

His speed was extremely fast, and the chase ended in less than a minute. Xi, who was physically exhausted, had to face the enemy in front of him head-on.

"Your ability, can you change into any shape?"

"...", she panted.

"answer me."

"So what...!"

Just after saying this, the golden eyes saw Kuroro coming to her in an instant, and then quickly pinned her hand to his book.

"???"

What is he trying to do? ? , Xi looked at each other suspiciously.

The members of the regiment came out one after another, standing behind Kuroro, without any movement.

Kuroro stepped aside, turned to the brand new page, imitated Xi's hand gestures out of thin air for a while, and sighed softly.

"How is it?" said a small man with only half of his face showing.

"The stealing failed."

He closed the book and said plainly: "Innate ability is always different from the driving nature of mind ability."

He told her, and he also told himself.

She didn't understand what exactly they were going to do. She was exhausted and could only stare blankly as her body fell on the muddy floor.

"Do you want to join us?"

A smile appeared on the expressionless face, just like on the train before.

"…to join you guys?"

She didn't understand, didn't they intend to kill her?Why did you suddenly say to join them?What does it mean to say 'join'?

"Aren't you... come to kill me?"

"When did I say I was going to kill you?"

Chrollo walked up to her.

"Your abilities are special,"

I just want your ability,

"...so join our Phantom Troupe."

Then until it can take away your ability.

She struggled to stand up from the ground, "I won't join you." Slowly backed away, preparing for the final escape.

He first sighed, then said to her with that contemptuous expression:

"...Do you still think you can escape..."
