The Contractor of the New Sister Devil

"!——......"

But Mio did not give up, hoping that people other than herself-Yuxi and Walnut could take over this task and look at them.

"..." "..."

And they also did not say a word with a sad expression, making Miao look at them alternately and suspiciously.At this time--

"In the area where the incident happened...especially in the place where you are directly exposed to your uncontrollable power, all material time seems to have completely stalled."

Xiuzai still held the steering wheel and faced the front, speaking solemnly:

"Speaking of it, it's like being surrounded by an absolute dimensional fault, completely isolated from normal space...not affected by any physical or magical power. No matter how we try to deal with it, there is no way to deal with it."

In other words, that place—the scene of that tragedy, will leave the miserable claw marks forever in the future, which cannot be erased.

"……So this is ah."

The blade murmured even more.When she reunited with Yuuki at Shengsaka Academy, why did she feel so cold as the two; why Hu Tao and Gao Zhi who appeared later were more hostile to the blade; why the expressions of the two in the front seat were so sad.

At this moment, Dongcheng Blade understood more completely.

——In the past five years, Renjian has never forgotten the tragedy, how serious he did, and what he did.Every day-spent in the regret at the time.

But that is nothing at all.After being exiled by the "village", all the pain and regret are carved in the memory that will never be erased.The number of nightmares is uncountable.

However, everyone who stays in the "village" is different.What they lived was the days when the traces of that tragic tragedy were burned in their eyes and carved into the retina.

For them, reality is a nightmare.

To this day, this has not changed.

The "guilt" and "fault" of Dongcheng Edge-will never disappear.

Inside the car full of solemn silence and harsh silence, there is still a sound constantly rustling-the sound of the engine running.

The car kept advancing, carrying Blade Geng and others around into the street where there were already more houses.

"——The blade is more."

During this section of the road, the slightly lowered blade raised his head at Yuxi's call in front.

……what……

I saw the familiar scene passing through the window.In front of the road where the car is driving-on the left hand side, there is something that has not changed.When Jian Geng was still living in this land, he lived with Xun.

A place full of memories-the former Dongcheng home.

At the other end of the courtyard on the side is the Noaka House.Nothing has changed, the same as before.Childhood memories suddenly awakened from my brain, with a certain kind of high emotion.

"————!"

Dongcheng Blade gritted his teeth even more, suppressing the homesickness in his heart.I didn't come here to indulge in sentimentality.

——Blade never even thought of forgetting that tragedy for a moment, and decided to carry it on for a lifetime.

This tragedy not only tortured the blade, but also caused Youxi, Walnut, Gao Zhi, and everyone in the village to suffer for so long. The answer needed will not be something that can be derived from returning to the scene after many years.

……but.

Now that the blade is more, there are more important things to do.

And guard anyway—things that must be guarded.

When Blade thinks back about the reason why he was here even more like this--

"I ran all the way from Tokyo. I would also like to ask you to come in and rest first, but unfortunately there was an unexpected visitor, so I had to go directly to the elder first, sorry."

Takikawa, who was next to Blade Geng, looked indifferent to Shuya who was sad.

"Ok... it doesn't matter."

Blade even nodded in answer.

"—Before that, I have something to ask." "Okay, you say."

After Xiuzai agreed, Ren asked him directly:

"Uncle just said, "There is an unexpected visitor"..."

There is nothing strange about Shuya's words.Generally speaking, this should refer to Takikawa, but it can also be interpreted from another perspective.

"Couldn't... Besides Takikawa, other people are coming, right?"

Shuya's words can also be explained as "there have been unexpected visitors in the village, and now there are more Takikawa".

".................."

Blade's question caused Xiuzai to glance back from the rear mirror.

It wasn't the blade that looked towards him, but the Takigawa beside him.

"If it is not convenient for me to know, I can cover my ears."

Takikawa also noticed Shuya's gaze and said jokingly.

"Uncle...you don't have to worry about Takikawa, he is a trustworthy person."

and--

"If something goes wrong, I will take this responsibility..."

"Hey Hey hey……"

Takikawa protested unhappily.

...I don't want to either.

Blade was even more silent, only revealing his own bitterness with his eyes.The keen Takikawa must have just heard the meaning of Xiuzai's words, and he understood the meaning of the blade in an instant.The responsibility that Blade should bear also includes if Takigawa leaks Shuya and causes serious damage-he will personally end Takigawa.

Of course, Blade didn't want things to become a battle with Takikawa.He believes that he has a kind of interracial friendship with Takikawa, and he is also one of the few people who can be trusted.

But in this situation where they had to face the "village" directly and walked with Takikawa, and the reason was related to a few blades, then they were bound to be responsible for Takikawa himself and his actions.Therefore, the warning to restrain Takigawa in this way should not only be said during the secret meeting of the two, but also actively spoken to people in the "village" such as Shuya.Expressing determination at the right time should be able to help oneself and the situation to obtain the "village" identification.

"father……?"

After Walnut in the passenger seat also urged Xiuzai to explain the facts, he sighed and finally spoke:

"——'Vatican' will send an interrogator over, and it will arrive tomorrow."
