Clow Cards Cardcaptor

Came to Calgary following the theft of the contract, temporarily disbanded with Celica and the others, wandering alone in a strange city in Canada,

　　 Fang Ran never expected to meet this figure here.

　　Senior A-level participant, the fuse of the Shenlin Project, the former leader of the Royal Court, and...

　　 Now the eighth pillar executive officer of the association!

　　 The moment he saw Kolossos, he subconsciously raised his whole body on alert!

　　I just came out of the store, still holding things and smiling with the owner, I was also surprised that the encounter at this moment also appeared.

　　 was dumb for a moment, and then as if he had understood something, he smiled and restored that impeccable gentleman's demeanor.

　　 Kolosos looked at Fang Ran, who was alert to him, and spoke with a gentle and polite gesture:

　　 "I know there is a cafe nearby, how about sitting down and chatting together?"

　　...

　　 Calgary, southwest of downtown,

　　The elegant wooden door pushes a string of bells, and the exquisite retro decoration style reveals an elegant and comfortable style.

　　 The store is not big and dusty, there are no other customers at this time, and even the store brand does not look like a business store at all.

　　 But the glass jars on the shelf behind the counter prove the fact of the coffee shop here.

　　 "I met the owner when I first came, and he opened this shop out of love. I really like the style and atmosphere here,"

　　 After watching the rich man in his 40s and 50s serve his coffee, he glanced at himself in surprise and left, sitting in a quiet position by the window.

　　 Fang Ran listened to Kolosos in front of him with a smile and said:

　　 "And you don't need to be so vigilant. I didn't plan to do anything to you, nor did I think about reporting to the association."

　　 The topic turns smoothly and naturally, which makes people feel that he is good at talking and gentle, without any disgust, and this sentence itself is even more...

-【reality】-

　　 Looking at the result of the [scale card], I couldn’t help but be surprised.

　　 did not completely relax his vigilance, but was slightly silent, and withdrew his ability to be ready to go.

　　 Fang Ran took off his sunglasses and looked at Kolosos in front of him.

　　 Young and outstanding appearance, but with the deep temperament that has been immersed in the years, coupled with the exemplary British gentleman demeanor,

On the way 　　 came, almost everyone’s eyes were attracted,

　　 But Fang Ran’s impression of him still stayed during the national war. The elderly man in a suit, hat, cane,

　　 It's just that he didn't expect at the time that the person in front of him would trigger everything afterwards.

　　 Looking at the entire plan of God’s Presence, the most critical link is the betrayal of Kolosos.

　　 directly led to the fall of the night battle control agency in Europe-the royal court, making it easy for the association to gather seven dark crystals in reality...

　　 At the end of the afternoon, the sun shines through the window, the temperature of the light is hot and the aroma of coffee beans is ground into powder,

　　 "But I didn't expect to see you again at such a time and place,"

　　 Sitting in this small coffee shop in Calgary, Closos looked at the black-haired youth in front of him with emotion.

　　 "The blow at the last moment of the A-level warfare made me unforgettable for a lifetime."

　　 As if recalling the simulation scene at that time, the huge silver gun that pierced through the buildings from thousands of meters high like a shooting star, he finally asked with a smile:

　　 "Should I call you Fang Ran, or Night Crow?"

　　 And in the face of his profound question, there is no more cover up today,

　　 Fang Ran's eyes calmly and straightly looked at him in response.

　　 "I am Fang Ran, I have always been."

　　 listening to this answer, looking at him with surprise in his eyes,

　　 Kolosos seemed to have re-acquainted the young man he had first met in the C-class battle.

　　 "Why would you help me keep the association secret?"

　　The European action made the association thoroughly aware of its own strength, and it is not difficult to guess that he is the night crow after contacting the previous events.

　　 Now that he has become the eighth pillar executive officer, Koloss knows this and deserves it.

　　 It's just that Fang Ran couldn't think of any reason why he was willing to help himself keep the association secret.

　　 "A-level high-level existence is not so easy to hide, unless you don't use that power, so it doesn't matter whether you report it or not,"

　　 Facing the doubt that Fang Ran did not relax his vigilance, Kolosos smiled indifferently.

　　 Then he took up the coffee and breathed out the warm mouth softly:

　　 "Also, the sixth pillar and Youye Angel, who has a close relationship with you, are close friends, and the seventh pillar is born in China, so I am on the line with them,"

　　 "It doesn't matter if you sell your personal affection where you have nothing to do with yourself."

-【reality】-

　　 Perceiving the result of [Battle Scale], Fang Ran listened to him seemingly uttering the words of the factions within the association, for reasons similar to Trinity.

　　 "Hidden my whereabouts, don't you worry about when I act suddenly and cause losses to the association?"

　　 "If the prevention of association is so simple, you may have succeeded Arcane Master how many times."

　　 For this questioning, Kolosos just smiled when he brought the coffee to his lips.

　　 Even if he betrayed the camp, his name has not changed, but with the magical powers of that ‘maid maid’, it’s really easy to come to North America without being known by the association...

　　 understood what he meant, in short, confirmed that the worst would not happen,

　　 Fang Ran lightly breathed out and temporarily put down his guard.

　　 Then looked at Kolossos, there was still a weird feeling that his old appearance overlapped in front of him in his mind, so sitting with this figure, I didn’t know what to talk about for a while.

　　 was a little silent, he finally only asked as if he was greeting an acquaintance:

"How will you be here?"

　　 "Each column executive has its own jurisdiction in North America, and Alaska and Western Canada are the areas I am responsible for,"

　　 "I have been in this city since the end of things in Europe, and now it's a vacation after work."

　　 also answered with a smile like a small chat, Koloss sipped a sip of coffee, the strong bitterness made his eyes a touch of nostalgia in the warm sun.

　　 But before Fang Ran noticed, he smiled again and watched him speak:

　　 "Speaking of which, I have passed by here before. The last time I came to North America, it was about 20 years ago."

　　 Twenty years ago...

　　 The words from the senior A-level, as soon as they speak, they exceed the length of Fang Ran’s current life.

　　 Looking at the scenery in Calgary's warm clouds outside the window, it seems that he is reminiscing about the past, and Korosos's face has a feeling of years that do not match his youthful appearance.

　　 "At that time, I came here to investigate something. The night battle in North America was far less active than it is now,"

　　 "Black markets and taverns have not been spread across every central city, and the participants have not yet integrated into all walks of life as they are now,"

　　 "Very few people will develop things that have nothing to do with combat power, and only occasionally help some rich people solve problems for funds. There is no such thing as an intermediary who specializes in publishing tasks..."

　　 Listening to Klossos’s narration, listening to his words, some of the things that he had just touched,

　　 gradually pieced together the night battle scene of that era in my mind,

　　 Fang Ran looked at the young and not young figure in front of him, put down the coffee in his hand, and looked at the snow-white peaks of the Rocky Mountains in the distance, deeply sighed.

　　 "At that time, I really never thought that I would come to North America again in this capacity."

　　 From a decades-old leader of the royal court to an executive officer of associations, it seems that even Korosos himself is a little bit emotional.

　　 And listening to such words, there was no sound of silence, thinking about him as the key to the plan of God’s Presence, there is an impulse to liberate the king of the gods now to peep into his memory,

　　 But thinking of the figure in the capital that night, Fang Ran finally resisted such thoughts.

　　 After a little silence, he raised his eyes and watched Kolossos ask the same question as Trinity.

　　 "Why would you join the association without hesitating to betray the royal court?"
