Just as she was about to jokingly say, "But this time it looks like I've drawn the lottery", a bright lightning flashed through her mind!

She immediately stopped in her tracks because of shock!

She stood blankly on the deserted street, with dilapidated houses beside her, as if behind a certain gate, a frightened and reclusive old woman hid behind the gate and peeped at the woman who was running wildly and then suddenly stopped on the street outside. , A young girl who does not seem to belong to this dead area in any way.

In an instant, the original scene she had seen in the Endless Palace flashed again in her mind.

In the snowstorm, Zhou Fangzun said: [I'm sorry, I let you draw a lottery. 】

Reji Munakata said: [With such a hearty expression, thanks to you being able to speak...!If you really feel sorry, you should think of a way before it evolves to this result! 】

Zhou Fangzun's refreshing and calm smile, and Munakata Reiji's sad, angry, and helpless expression slowly froze in her mind.

She deeply remembered Munakata Reisi's expression at that time, from shock, disbelief, heartache, anger... slowly to helplessness, when Zhou Fangzun calmly called out his name, the expression on his raised head was so weak , so sad... that moment was almost heartbreaking.

She still remembered the ending when he said, "Before it evolves to this kind of result, we should think of a way!", full of anger, despair, and helplessness, almost hoarse——

I will never let you say that and show that expression again in this world, Reishi-kun.

Liu Quan closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his face had regained his composure, with a faint smile on his lips.

"I'll be lucky, Fushimi-kun," she said.

"No matter what kind of enemy it is, I will win. Because the director said that the most capable outsider is me, not someone else?"

Fu Shimi was taken aback. "……ha?!"

Although he knew that saying one more sentence at this time would be equivalent to setting the flag, Liu Quan still added a sentence.

"What's more... I haven't had a good talk with him yet. Before I solve the big trouble of the director, of course I have to be alive and kicking, right?"

Fushimi gasped as if he couldn't take it anymore, and let out a tut.

"Hey, don't worry, I will continue to track your terminal location." He still said something similar to reassuring her.

Liu Quan silently smiled on the phone.

"Thank you so much, Fushimi-kun."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Quan continued to run wildly forward, according to Shimura Zero's instructions, turned around the intersection, passed by houses, passed through an open space, and finally rushed across the last corner of the street.

... Then, she slowed down in surprise, and finally stopped before the building that the route indicated as the end point.

It is an old church that seems to have been abandoned!

The church was small, and the bricks on the outer wall had peeled off a lot due to wind and rain erosion and disrepair, and there were cracks on the wall.The two doors of the church are made of wood, and they were probably painted with dark paint, but now the paint has almost peeled off, revealing the mottled and rough wooden surface.

Liu Quan stopped a few meters away from the church, looked up at this dilapidated church like this area, which seemed to be forgotten by the rapidly developing city, and took a deep breath.

Just when she was about to move forward, the terminal rang again!

Liu Quan:! ! !

She quickly took out the terminal, but as soon as her eyes came into contact with the caller's name on the screen, she was taken aback!

Because that name is all too familiar to her—【Riji-kun】.

She hesitated for a moment, then pressed the answer button.

Sure enough, the very familiar voice came over the phone immediately.

"Xinya-jun, I have thought about it for a long time, and I feel that there are some things that must be told to you frankly."

Munakata Reishi's calm and magnetic mellow voice finished speaking, but there was a slight pause.

"...Xinya-jun? Are you...outside? Are you not in the SCEPTER4 camp?"

strangeness.Liu Quan thought, how did he find out?She is standing in this uninhabited open space now, but the surroundings are very quiet, right?

"There are birds chirping behind you, and if you listen carefully, there is the sound of the wind...it sounds like you are outdoors." Sure enough, the head of the room quickly explained her doubts, but if you taste carefully, there is also a sense of warmth in his voice. There was a sense of confusion that didn't match his usual high-ranking personality.

"Where have you been, Xinya? Could it be that... you ran away because of my anger." He seemed to have made a joke casually, but the sense of confusion and the seriousness that followed were evident in his tone. Li floated slightly in a posture that even he himself may not have noticed.

Liu Quan was slightly taken aback.

"Has Fushimi-kun called you yet?"

From the time she hung up Fushimi's phone to the present, it took at most five or six minutes. Probably Fushimi wanted to find out her exact destination first, and then contact the head of the office together, saving the time to go back and forth to understand the situation and The investigation time is so convenient that he can directly order SCEPTER6 to dispatch immediately.

Reji Munakata also seemed to be taken aback for a moment, this unexpected reaction seemed to surprise him a bit.

"No, no... Did something happen?" His voice sank slightly.

Liu Quan didn't answer his words, but instead asked him a question.

"So now, where is Li Si-kun?"

Before answering her, Munakata Reishi paused.

"I'm having a private meeting with someone. But... I always feel that I have to talk to you anyway, so—"

Liu Quan lowered his eyes slightly, closed his eyes, and smiled silently.

"Although I really want to have a good talk with Reishi-kun, but now is not a good time to talk."

It's so strange, she is about to face an unknown and powerful opponent, but she is now in a calm state of mind, and even these days, she and Munakata Reisi have not been able to understand each other and reach an agreement on certain things and have reached a deadlock Anxiety has also disappeared.Now when she closes her eyes, the only thing that comes to mind in her mind is his face, the appearance of him standing on the street at noon, his body glowing with blue lightning, but he still said "good boy" to her gently.

"During our parting days, I studied very good swordsmanship seriously..."

Very abruptly, she began to repeat what she had said at the time.

"It's not an exaggeration to say that most people are no longer my opponents."

On the other end of the phone, Munakata Reji let out an "Ah" from his throat as if unconsciously, seeming very surprised.

"Now, just stay there and don't move." His fast-running and wise brain seemed to draw some terrible inferences immediately, and he ordered decisively.

"I'll let Fushimi lead people there right away. I'll act after reuniting with SCEPTER4's backup, Shinya-kun!"

His voice seemed to raise a little unconsciously.

"Don't do reckless things without authorization! Mr. Xinya! Don't disturb others!"

Liu Quan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed softly.

The 15-minute time limit given by that madman Rei Ichimura is probably coming soon.What would he do if she hadn't appeared when the time came?Will he dismember Okuzu's real name bit by bit, as he said when he threatened her? !

What did the female doctor tell her?Saying Okatsu's real name seems to have been enduring... some serious domestic violence for a long time?Yeah?

"...Li Si-jun, these words, I actually wanted to tell you about these words when I was in the underground base of the Green Clan." She said with a tone of exclamation.

Munakata Reiji let out a "Huh?!" from his throat, as if he was extremely surprised.His sudden heavy breathing came through the terminal's microphone.

"...Then the consequences of what you are going to do now are the same as the situation I faced at that time." He asked calmly.

However, Liu Quan felt that his voice was a bit intermittent - if it wasn't because of poor call signal, then there was only one inference - Reiji Munakata was using the terminal to do other things while talking with her. Maybe it's contacting Fushimi or Awashima, maybe it's trying to locate her current location...

Liu Quan smiled.

"No, it's not the same," she replied in a frank tone.

"Then stop! Stop now! I'll be there soon, and before that—" Reiji Munakata raised his voice again, with a sense of anxiety that he might not even be aware of in his tone.

Liu Quan sighed slightly.

"Before then, maybe innocent people will be victimized, and they will be dismembered by the murderer because I failed to show up in time-can such a thing be allowed to happen, Reishi-kun?"

Reiji Munakata:! ?

Within a second of his pause, he had already heard her light laughter and voice from the other end of the phone.

Same as before.

"We, SCEPTER4, will carry out the duties and responsibilities of sword bearers—" she said.

Reiji Munakata:! ! !

Almost at the same time, he keenly heard a few extremely low beeps from the phone, like the alarm sound before the battery of the terminal was about to run out!

"Don't allow others to disturb the sanctuary, don't allow others to disturb the secular world, seal the wilderness, disperse the smog—" She continued to speak calmly as if she hadn't heard the small alarm.

The last time he said that was during their unexpected reunion.In the dense fog created by the gray king Feng Shengwu, when he was hit hard and was about to lose to his opponent, she reappeared as suddenly as when she had disappeared, passed through the poisonous thick fog, and stood at the By his side, fighting side by side with him, defending him against all attacks from opponents——

And, speaking in the same light, brisk but dignified tone as now, with a slight smile.

She said: "Liu Quan, draw the knife urgently!!"

After this sentence fell, there was a sudden silence in his terminal receiver.

Anxiously, he brought the terminal to his eyes, only to find that the call had been disconnected.He tried to locate the current location of her terminal, but the system showed that the tracking signal sent by the terminal had disappeared and could not be traced.

...Why does her terminal run out of power at such a time! !

With an indescribable anger and anxiety, Munakata immediately dialed Fushimi's number.

The author has something to say:
