"Maybe some scenes will make Miss Qianqiu feel uncomfortable, even if that's the case, is it okay?"

"...It's okay, I'll be patient."

The luxury car parked in front of the hotel that was tightly handled by people. Through the dark car window, Qianqiu could see the shining dome of this luxurious hotel in the sun, and the gold-plated patterns were winding on the Roman pillars. The golden light almost dazzled the eyes.

At first glance, it looks like an expensive high-society gathering place, and the surrounding streets seem to give way to this grand gathering. People in black suits come and go, paying close attention to the surrounding situation.

Such a scene couldn't help but make Qianqiu nervous, she clenched her hands into fists, and cold sweat oozes from her palms.

"Boss, is it really okay to take her with you? Today is..."

Hayato Gokuji, who was sitting in the driver's seat, glanced back slightly, as if he was puzzled by his leader's decision.Obviously everything before has been resolved satisfactorily, and Chiaki Cageshima can continue to live as an ordinary person, but she doesn't know why she appeared here.

Sawada Tsunayoshi put his hands on his knees comfortably, turned his face to look at Qianqiu, and smiled meaningfully, "Ah—this is an agreement between me and Miss Qianqiu. You don't have to worry about it, Yuji. "

Qianqiu timidly glanced at the scene outside the car window, but when she turned her head, she met Sawada Tsunayoshi's searching eyes.The warm brown eyes are like the vast sky, so clear that all her small thoughts have nowhere to escape.

"Miss Qianqiu, there is still a chance to turn back..."

"No." Qianqiu quickly interrupted Sawada Tsunayoshi's words, straightened his back again, ignoring the rolling eyes of Hayato Gokudera, "I can do it."

The moment the car door opened, Qian Qiu seemed to have exhausted all her courage and walked out of the car.She stretched out her trembling fingertips, and bent her arm into Sawada Tsunayoshi's.

Take a deep breath.

Yes.

"Don't be nervous." Sawada Tsunayoshi's whisper was full of affinity, which made Qianqiu's uneasy mood gradually quiet down.She nodded slightly, and took the first step towards the hotel's gate.

There is no need to say much about the status of the Pengele family in Italy, and naturally there is not much difficulty in entering the hotel.The other party just saw the young godfather with a gentle oriental face, and the silver-haired young man who followed around, and knew the identity of the person in an instant.On the contrary, existences like Qianqiu were ignored, and everyone only regarded her as a dispensable female companion, with no identity or status.

The moment she stepped into the hall, Qianqiu saw a golden splendor that she had never seen in her life.The Vengley headquarters is grand and ancient, expensive but not extravagant.But this hotel seems to wish that every corner is plated with expensive gold, it can no longer be described as luxurious.

The curtain of the fishing crystal lamp is swaying, and the sunlight cast from the dome is like the sky shining on the smooth ground. Qian Qiu stares at everything here like a countryman who came to the city from the countryside.The people who come and go are undoubtedly high-status mafia members, with luxurious dresses, well-cut suits, and elegant movements.It turns out that the Mafia is not as brutal as imagined, on the contrary, their behavior is more like a real nobleman.

Those menacing-looking people with messy dyed hair in the abandoned streets of Venice... they can only be called gangsters.

Qian Qiu stared at this place in a daze, suddenly felt that his decision was so insignificant.

"Miss Qianqiu, when I came, I had someone arrange a room, you can go and have a rest." Sawada Tsunayoshi turned his face slightly, and gently whispered in Qianqiu's ear at a polite distance that was neither too far nor too close. Said, "Actually, you don't have to worry. Part of the sudden departure of Skylark is because of today's gathering. That person has never bothered to come to such a crowded place, but today is a centralized meeting of various families, whether it is a security risk or a family The benefits are even higher. He has to come at this time."

"Really..." Qianqiu lowered her eyes, looking at the pink roses on her feet.

It was the first time for her to wear such a dress, and the smooth and straight texture was priceless at first glance.Needless to say, the pair of high heels on her feet, she usually wears flat shoes for the convenience of movement, but she felt a little soreness in the soles of her feet after wearing the shoes and walking from Pengelie's headquarters to here.

"I think Hibari should have arrived first, but he won't stay in such a place where people come and go." Sawada Tsunayoshi stretched out his hand to look at his watch, and then showed a concerned smile, "Leave the banquet to begin." There is still a period of time, let's go to the room to rest for a while. Please rest assured, I will guarantee Miss Qianqiu's safety."

Qianqiu could only nod his head, and then left with the prison temple Hayato.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Tsunayoshi Sawada, who was alone, showing a professional smile, and was immediately surrounded by people who came to flatter her.The ease of conversation and the proper distance reflect the majesty and etiquette of Vongola for hundreds of years.

If he didn't leave, he would probably be caught off guard by the arrival of these people.If it was her, no matter what, there was no way to be so calm and frank.This is not the world of watches. It is just a matter of losing face and money.This is a huge chess game about life.

Chiaki didn't understand the purpose of Sawada Tsunayoshi bringing him here.

Did she let her see the world of the mafia and obediently regress?Or let her make up her mind to enter this world?

To be honest, this was indeed a very reckless thing. I didn't understand Mr. Skylark's mind and walked in here rashly.

But there is no way out.

Now there is no room for regret.

"You can live a normal life, why do you want to come back?" Hayato, who was leading the way, suddenly broke the silence. He held the cigarette between his fingers, and the smoke from his mouth drifted away.

"Ah, about this matter..." Qianqiu was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly when he thought about it, "Well, Mr. Guidera respects Mr. Sawada very much, right?"

"Of course! The leader is the most wise and considerate leader in the world!" Speaking of this, the deep and hoarse tone became erratic, mixed with immeasurable reverence and pride.

"You can tell by the look in the eyes of Mr. Kiyodera. When Mr. Kiyodera looked at Mr. Sawada, he showed the kind of loyalty that shocked me. Mr. Sawada must be a special existence, and there is no way to give up no matter what..."

"Hmph. That's inevitable." Prison Temple took a shallow sip of his cigarette and smiled softly.

"That's why I'm back." Qianqiu's soft voice suddenly became firm, "Because there is something special to me here, in order not to make myself regret... I have to take a gamble no matter what."

"Strange woman." Prisoner Hayato snorted coldly, stopping the topic.

After getting out of the elevator and passing through the long corridor, Hayato Gujiji stopped in front of the room and handed the room card to Qianqiu's hand.The other members of the mafia family were almost gathered in the hall and the main venue. The guest room here was rarely visited, and it seemed quite quiet. No one came or went along the way.

Such a quiet environment made Qianqiu relax, she was not used to being in those grand occasions, and even felt scared.People who live an ordinary life all the way naturally cannot adapt to such a scene immediately. Perhaps the performance in the orphanage will be the biggest party Qianqiu has ever participated in.

Hayato Guiji hurriedly explained something and left here immediately, as long as he left the leader for a moment, he would stand restlessly.Qianqiu can naturally understand such a mood, she just smiled and said goodbye to the other party and walked into the room.

But not long after staying in the room, Qianqiu heard some strange sounds coming from all around.After listening carefully, a bad premonition rose in her heart.The sound was close to a low moan, as if someone couldn't help exhaling in pain, mixed with the sound of some scuffling.The friction of the cloth and the dull sound of thrashing sounded like some hard object hitting flesh and blood.

Qian Qiu couldn't help shivering, and walked cautiously to the door of the room step by step.

This weird and timid voice continued uninterrupted, and a trace of cold sweat leaked from Qianqiu's forehead.

Want to see it?Or just stay there?

Qian Qiu quietly opened the door and peeked outside.

No one passed by in the corridor, and it was peaceful.And this voice obviously came from a nearby room, in this place where no one came, Qianqiu could almost imagine how terrifying such a scene of atrocities would be.

After hesitating for a while, Qianqiu decided to close the door.

It wasn't that she was unwilling to save her, but that it would be useless to wait and see by herself without the power to restrain the chicken, and it would even make the situation worse.

At the moment when the door was closed, she heard the sound of the door being kicked open, followed by a chilling scream...then there was no more sound.

Qianqiu's heart skipped a beat, but she subconsciously pushed away from the room.

She saw Skylark standing in this unapproached corridor, drop by drop of scarlet red full of rust, slipping down from the gleaming duckweed in his hand, and disappearing in the dark carpet.

Those phoenix eyes with flying eyebrows drawn into the temples seemed to be surrounded by thousands of miles of turmoil, with faint anger surging.

Qian Qiu's fingertips trembled, and she walked towards the skylark step by step.The thin heels hit the soft carpet one after another, making a dull sound.

She saw a person lying quietly in front of the door, the smell of blood raging everywhere made people sick, her stomach was churning, but her eyes couldn't leave the pair of wide-open hideous eyes that had lost their vitality on the ground.

Qian Qiu's mouth was slightly opened, fear filled her chest immediately, but in the face of extreme fear, she lost the ability to shout.As soon as the calf softened, Qianqiu could only lean against the wall softly, supporting his body.

The moment Skylark turned his head back, a trace of surprise flashed in those piercing eyes, and then this emotion gradually expanded, drowning out the torrent of anger.

"Cage Island Chiaki, why are you here?"

However, at this moment, Qianqiu couldn't hold other things in her mind, she covered her mouth with her hand, trying to restrain the urge to vomit.The sharp panting seemed to calm down the fear at the moment.

This was the first time Qianqiu saw someone die in front of him, and it was in such a tragic and unrepentant way.The strong bloody smell seeped into the pores and controlled the nerves.

By the way... Mr. Sawada said that this is a mafia gathering.

By the way, he said that some scenes would make him feel uncomfortable.

Are you referring to... is this the case?Obviously, he agreed to it straight away, but in the end he couldn't even accept this kind of thing.The mafia is an existence that faces such things every day and every night.

The gap between them... probably lies in this kind of place.

"Mr. Hibari didn't do it...right?"

"Answer me, why are you here?"

Yunque directly ignored Qianqiu's trembling tone, narrowed his eyes slightly, and collapsed without seeing the corpse on the ground, but the blood-stained duckweed crutch was directly placed between Qianqiu's neck.

"I……"

Qianqiu's pupils contracted violently, she swallowed with difficulty, but she couldn't give any explanation.In any case, the horrific body cannot be ignored.She kept looking sideways involuntarily from the corner of her eye, but she couldn't control this behavior.

Speechless for a while, the duckweed crutch that was coerced by the neck was put down as if to admit defeat, and was put away properly.A slightly cool palm covered those frightened eyes.

Qianqiu's eyes were completely dark.

"Don't look."

It is obviously a palm full of coolness, but in Qianqiu's heart it is full of warmth.She lowered her eyelids and bit her lower lip hard, hoping to hold back her tears.

The sound of chaotic footsteps came from far to near, and exclamations sounded everywhere.

Qianqiu, who couldn't distinguish the situation clearly, could only feel the surrounding situation in the dark. Even so, she was still caught off guard by what was happening now. Only Mr. Skylark's breath calmed her down a little.

Immediately, a voice full of indignation suddenly sounded, breaking the silence at the moment.

"Did you kill our people? Vongola's Cloud Guardian!"

For a while, the atmosphere here became tense, and no family would allow the loss of family members under such circumstances, even Pengo Lie's people.

Yunque still didn't let go of the palm covering Qianqiu's eyes, and calmly swept the various family members who came over after hearing the sound, without saying a word.A trace of impatience flashed in his eyes, as if disgusted by such a crowded scene.

The middle-aged man with a big belly on the opposite side took a step forward, holding a cigar in his hand, with a nervous expression on his face, "If you don't give an explanation, we can only send you to the Avengers Prison - let them follow you!" You talk about the indiscriminate killing of innocent Mafia members."

This is equivalent to persecution and did not cause any slander to the latter, but those eyes that were as dark as the night were still motionless, and there was never even a trace of panic.On the contrary, the mafia member who caught such a look unconsciously took a step back.

"Avengers prison... what is it?"

Qianqiu's heart tightened, and he murmured.Even in the darkness, she still felt the stormy scene at the moment, and the atmosphere of tit-for-tat made her breathless oppressively.

"You don't have to know."

This time, Yunque finally opened his mouth coolly, he seemed to be displeased with showing such a messy scene in front of Qianqiu, and even his eyes flickered a little.

"Oh, is this lady...?"

The people on the opposite side finally noticed this well-protected and thoughtful woman. They were not ignorant of Pengo Li's Yun Shou's weird temper, making it difficult to get close to her alone.The most appropriate reason I can think of is probably to exist as a lover.

Thinking of this, even the eyes from the opposite side became malicious.

But Qianqiu didn't understand the tone of the other party's words, she just summoned up the courage to raise the volume, and repeated the question she just asked, "What is the Avengers Prison?"

Just hearing this name, Qianqiu felt a bad premonition.What does it mean to kill innocent members of the mafia indiscriminately? The Mr. Skylark she knows only executes everything in the way he thinks is correct. Even so, he has never done anything beyond.

Why did it fall to the point of twisting the Avengers prison...?Just because there are people and dead bodies here, can it be judged?

"Those who violate the rules here will be sent to the Avengers Prison for punishment."

Even after hearing such words, Skylark remained calm.He was even tired of hearing this confrontation, and pulled Qianqiu's body straight to prepare to leave.

Qian Qiu hastily pulled off the palm covering his eyes, the sudden sunlight that hit his eyes made his eyes sore.She suppressed the strong tears and forcefully let the soreness dissipate.

"What are you going to do?" There was a trace of surprise in that cold and Liao Dan voice, and then settled down again.

"Mr. Skylark didn't do it." Qianqiu turned around and shouted at the Mafia members who were talking about it.

This shout was like a stone falling into the river, arousing the anger in the middle-aged man's eyes.The other family members following behind cast all kinds of malicious eyes, piercing Qianqiu's heart like a sharp weapon.She was a little scared in her heart, but such a rebuttal seemed to have exhausted all her strength, but all she could do now was to hold out her chest to meet the siege of the other world.

Qian Qiu quietly stretched out her hand, and her trembling fingertips touched the slightly cool palm of the young man beside her, and then held it tightly.It seems that only in this way can she have the courage to continue to stand here.

Obviously he can explain it, and there are many opportunities to clear up the doubts. She believes that Mr. Skylark did not do all of this.

Why does this person always swallow these doubts in his stomach?Whether you don't care about it or look down on it, but these slanders have hit Qianqiu firmly in his heart.

Qian Qiu took a deep breath, firmly grasped Yunque's hand, not wanting to let him go.

She took a step forward, her soft amber eyes glowing with courage and trust.

She wanted to stand where she could stand shoulder to shoulder with this person.

"I can attest that none of this was done by Mr. Skylark."
