The trail of the sky The light belongs to you

In Manolia Village, there is still the faint fragrance of white lotus, the same white lotus pavilion, and the same room...but it was another unfortunate accident.

The four rushed to the hotel immediately after hearing the news. The children were obviously frightened a lot. When they saw Ke Luosi, they threw themselves into her arms...

From Mary's narration, they learned that they suddenly encountered a group of masked men in black while walking on the Mayway Sea Road. Although Karuna tried to drive them away, they were surrounded, Teresa also got entangled with them, and then Fainted by the hypnotics they carry with them...

"Onasa...the group of men in black, could it be that!?"

"It should be right." Onasa lowered her head and thought about a series of events. "The general context is clear. Now it's best to find Agathe..."

"keep the change."

"Hey?"

A young man's voice sounded outside the door, and Agathe walked into the room. The moment his eyes met Onasha's, both sides were a little unnatural.

"I heard about the situation from the association," Agathe tried not to look in Onasha's direction, "this time the situation is really tricky..."

"Don't talk like it's none of your business, even Sister Karuna has been murdered by them!"

"I know...don't yell, well, just tell me what happened, it will probably be fine."

After learning the general situation, Agathe showed a puzzled expression instead, "Things are a bit strange... Actually, the guys from the 'Raven Gang' left the warehouse.

I stared at them for a few days, thinking they would be honest, but who knew that they suddenly disappeared today..."

"So, could it be that they attacked Dean Teresa?"

"No, it's hard to say, they are not enough to be Miss Karuna's opponents," Joshua said, "Brother Agathe... those children said that the criminal is a man in a black mask, and Onasa also speculated Possibly the same people you've been investigating..."

"Ah, it's very possible, but those idiots can't get rid of it," Agathe suddenly changed the subject, "You two, come with me..."

"What, this sentence popped up suddenly..."

"Idiot, of course I went to the scene..."

"Ah, so..."

"Understood, we will go with you."

When the four of them were about to leave... Onasa, who had been silent all this time, didn't move.

"Oh? What's the matter?" Agathe noticed the abnormality, and immediately turned around, "Aren't you going together? Or do you still don't want to act with someone like me who doesn't know how to adapt?"

"...I, I didn't say that," Onasha rarely blushed with embarrassment, trying to change the subject, "Speaking of which, you didn't stop the civilians from acting together this time?"

"...I wanted to stop it, but..." Agathe glanced at Ke Luosi's eager eyes, and could only sigh, "Since even you are sure of her strength, I'll change things up occasionally. .”

"In this case..." Onasa closed her eyes and walked to the front of them all at once, "Target Meiwei Haidao, the investigation begins!"

"Hey... when is it your turn to give orders..." Seeing that Onasha had disappeared, Agathe chased after her angrily.

The three people who stayed in place heard the hilarious conversation between them——

"What are you giving orders? Originally, I was the person in charge of this series of events, but I just handed it over to you for the time being..."

"You, you bastard, you really can adapt to the wind..."

"That's what I'm going to say, big fool Agathe."

"Who are you calling an idiot!"

"Ha ha……"

"It feels like they..." Ke Luosi seemed to have forgotten the worries just now, and looked at the direction where the two left helplessly, "Although they obviously quarreled, they still care about each other...Onasha also has this side... …?"

"The so-called quarrel is also proof of a good relationship."

"Haha, then, let's follow quickly."

Walking out of the White Tree Lotus Pavilion, it was already pitch black. All the residents of Manolia Village had turned on their guide lamps, and the silhouettes of monsters could be seen on the street. It was obvious that now was not a good time to investigate.

"Cut...it's so dark, what else can we investigate..."

chirp——

There was a clear chirp in the sky, and they looked up at the black night sky, as if something had passed between the faint starlight, accompanied by the sound of flapping wings.

"Ah, Kiku...where did you go?" Kolos said to the white falcon that landed on her right arm, "Is that so...I see..."

"...What is this, this, this!?" Obviously, this unexpected visitor startled Agathe.

"It's not something...it's called Kiku, and it's Kolos' friend," Onasa looked at him speechlessly, "Please, can you be gentle, don't make such a fuss..."

"Oh? So little girl, what did your friend say?"

"When the teacher and the others were attacked, Kiku saw it. It should be able to help us find the prisoner."

"Ahaha...that's a funny joke..."

However, Agathe's laughter was drowned in the praise of the other three people...

"Good job! As expected of Kiku."

"Well, it's a great achievement!"

As the conversation gradually developed in a strange direction... Agathe's expression changed from amused to embarrassed, and finally froze in a petrified state...

"Hey, hey! Why do you... don't you even believe what this bird is saying?"

"...I'm sorry, we've actually met each other many times." Onasa turned her head, raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at him with an expression twice as speechless as before.

"If you don't believe me, you don't have to go with us." Estelle jumped to the side of Kolos, "Then Kiku, let's go!~"

Before the red-haired youth could react from the stone that drowned him, the four of them plus the bird had already run to a place that was about to disappear from sight...

"Um, hello! You guys, wait for me!"

——Agathe will probably never forget this mission: the little devil who just arrived, the inexplicable quarrel, and finally even a thing from the animal kingdom who does not understand the language appeared...

On the street, five people galloped after a bird——

This must be on the headlines of Liber Communications...

Jokes aside, Kiku finally locked on to the destination - the Balenno Lighthouse, the top of the lighthouse emits light that shines in the direction of the sea, and Kiku circles around the top.

Only then did Agathe finally convince himself that there were many things in this world that he really couldn't understand.

"Barenno Lighthouse, I remember that there is an old guard who lives here..." Onasa looked up at the entrance of the lighthouse, and she could see the traces of someone coming here not long ago.

"I think the prisoners are inside the building."

"In other words, it is very likely that the criminals have taken over the lighthouse."

"Okay, then let's go in and have a look... But..." Agathe turned to Koloss and asked seriously, "There is no turning back after entering, so, do you really plan to go together?"

"Yes, no matter what, I want to see with my own eyes who is going to kill the teacher and the children..."

"Huh... well," Agathe let out a short chuckle, "he is also a stubborn guy, so you can do whatever you want... But you have to be clear, the other party is the guy who defeated Karuna. "

As soon as they walked into the lighthouse, they saw the missing people—members of the Raven Gang headed by Dean, holding weapons in their hands, as if they were waiting for the arrival of the invaders.

"I didn't expect..." Agathe stepped forward and grabbed Dean's arm with his back turned, "You guys, what are you doing here!?"

They turned around with almost mechanical movements, their eyes were dull, as if they couldn't focus on a fixed point, and they didn't seem to have their own consciousness.

"These guys..."

"Agathe..."

Soon, Onasa and Agathe exchanged eyes, and at the same time, Dean launched an attack.

"Varied……"

"Hmm..." In comparison, Onasa's reaction was better, as the rapier and dagger collided and sparkled.

"This power..." She used all the strength of her right hand on the hilt of the sword, and jumped away suddenly, but still staggered a few steps due to the huge reaction.

"Dean...you..."

"coming!"

The battle is much more laborious than expected, and the physical strength, speed, attack and endurance have all improved several levels compared to those in the warehouse...

It took a lot of effort to win.

"It seems that it has been determined that they have been manipulated, using the usual methods of those masked men." Agathe squatted down and checked the situation.

"Using drugs and psychological suggestion at the same time is a kind of hypnosis... It seems to be more advanced than our previous investigations, and even the potential of the body has been stimulated..." Onasha added, "But after they wake up Probably won't remember what I did."

"Then..." Agathe stood up and walked to the stairs leading to the second floor. "The prisoner should be on the top floor. Proceed carefully."

Each floor will encounter a group of members led by a leader. Each floor is a hard battle, and it is obvious that their condition is no different from those on the first floor.

Finally... came to the fifth floor, just when Estier was about to rush forward, Onasa immediately reached out to stop her, "Estier...listen..."

In front of the stairs, there were vague voices of several people talking, and one of them was very familiar...it was Mayor Daemon's secretary Gilbert.

It turns out that the manipulator behind all this is the mayor himself. His purpose is to destroy the orphanage. First of all, he set fire to it.

The reason why the mayor is so anxious to have Teresa move to his mansion is probably because of this... and his fundamental purpose is to develop this place into a high-end villa area for profit...

It was almost the same as what Onasa predicted in advance, but she was still very surprised-it turns out, can human beings really be so greedy that they ignore the happiness of others and even take it?

"Is this... the reason?"

Ke Luosi, who listened patiently at the beginning, couldn't bear it anymore, and walked out first, "Why... for such a meaningless thing, hurt others and turn the place full of memories into ashes..."

"You, how did you find this place!? Aren't those scumbags all guarding?"

"Unfortunately, they all slept soundly," Onasa walked to Kolos's side, "Mr. Gilbert, why don't you try it too?"

"I didn't expect the mayor to be the mastermind behind the scenes," Estier flashed out his long stick and slashed through the air, "and... it seems that some people are also involved..."

"Oh? Miss, do you know us?"

"We have met those two guys over there a few times..."

"What kind of fate?" Agathe locked his bushy eyebrows tightly, the epee had already been unsheathed, "hidden in the east, and finally attracted monsters to deal with me... But this time I finally caught the tail!"

"You, you! Kill them quickly!" The blue-haired secretary was clearly irritated by the scene, he retreated behind the railing and ordered loudly.

"Senior...you, you are so disappointing..." Ke Luosi's eyes were full of awe-inspiring light, the tip of the rapier was shining, and the power guide was ready to drive magic at any time.

"... arrest you now on behalf of the Guerrilla Association!"

The masked man's weapon is neither an ordinary rapier nor a guided gun, but a thorn-like weapon tied to his hands.

Although the specific details are not yet known, the speed and attack even surpassed the level of the Royal Army...

The technique called "Phantom Assassination" often makes people unable to move, and can only fall into the opponent's attack.

"..."

However, Onasa is already very clear about their combat methods, and her speed has never been slow. Next, she just needs to block their actions and create opportunities for others...

"Time speeds up!" Accompanied by the rapid rotation of the hands of the clock above her head, almost as if moving instantly, Onasa came between the two...

"Broken Blade Slash!"

As the name suggests, wherever the golden sword energy reaches, there is a sound of metal breaking...

"What...how could..."

The weapons in the hands of the two seemed to be controlled, and they lost their attack power...

"Now! Joshua!"

"Understood! Jueying...!"

The boy's figure passed quickly, the blade hit, and the two masked men immediately fell to their knees, unable to continue fighting...

"Ha..." Agathe turned the epee behind his back, "Give up resistance, let's capture it with nothing..."

"Sure enough, guerrillas are stronger in a head-to-head fight..."

"The captain is right, we shouldn't be so careless..."

The word "Captain" caused panic to flash in Onasa's eyes. She immediately adjusted her mentality, walked up to one of them, and pointed her rapier directly at the man's neck...

"Your captain, who the hell is..."

"Stupid, idiot...how could I tell you..."

"It's fine if you don't say anything, so how about avenging the old and new hatred here, and then taking it back to the association for slow torture?"

"Huh... Onasa Barlowka, do you think it's so easy?"

"...Oops!" Even though he tried to block it, the bayonet's attack still left bloodstains on his arm, and the effect of the broken blade had disappeared...

"If you're approaching, this guy's head won't be safe?" Another person quickly jumped to Gilbert's side, drew out a gun and pressed it against his forehead.

"You! How dare you do this to your employer!"

"Don't get me wrong boy, our employer is the mayor, but even if the mayor is there."

"Shameless..."

"Hey, have you played enough?" Agathe stepped forward regardless of the threat...but the second half of the sentence was drowned in the sound of gunfire.

"My legs... my legs!!"

The bullet hit the young man's leg. Although the injury was not fatal, the blood was still pouring out...

"Agathe...they are serious, don't act rashly. The old man is also in their hands..."

The five of them could only slowly retreat to the edge of the stairs, watching helplessly as the criminal escaped from the exit...

"ran away!"

"Chase……!"

A rope was hanging from the railing of the roof, and the two men in black had already used it to escape to the ground...

"Cut... how could I let you escape!"

Without saying a word, Agathe also slid down the rope and chased in the direction where the man in black disappeared...

"This guy is really messed up..." Onasa frowned slightly, and turned her head after a moment of thought, "He can't handle it alone, so I'll help."

"Then, we also..."

"No, Estier, this matter is not over yet, you still need to go to the mayor's house to find out, as well as the Raven Gang and the secretary... I will leave these to you."

"Onasha..."

Onasa has already climbed the rope, "Time is running out..." She glanced at the direction where Agathe disappeared, and then looked at the three people above, "Hehe... Estier, Joshua, Ke Luosi, I will see you again in the future, this time I finally say goodbye to you."

brush--

Onasa let go of her fists, and whizzed past with the slightly humid sea breeze at night—their figures were no longer visible.

"Phew...it's really high..."

The girl looked at the street ahead, took a few steps forward, but suddenly turned around and ran into the bushes beside her...

Under the Balenno Lighthouse, tranquility was restored again, but in front of it, the pursuit continued.
