Harold then tells about Ling and Colin.

"Here's the thing, we had a daughter seven years ago," Harold said. ”

"Ahh Lloyd said.

Ellie said, "Did you mean that?"

Harold: 'Well, in an unfortunate accident, no, it wasn't an accident, the kid was actually killed by us. ”

"Huh, is this?" said Randy.

"Eight years ago, when I was a novice trader, I was trying desperately to survive in the growing Crosbell trading market.

Eventually, I began to dabble in dangerous things, and as a result, I was saddled with a huge amount of debt, and I took my young daughter to live on the run, and no matter where I fled, someone would catch up with us, and we had no place to live at that time, and in the long run, it would not end well, so we sent our daughter to the home of an old friend.

It was a trustworthy friend, and we planned to put on clean and decent clothes to welcome our daughter back after all the debts had been paid.

Happily, with the advice of a reliable lawyer, we were able to clear our debts, we re-established our careers by hard work and doors, worked desperately and desperately, and paid off the debts in full after a year, so that we could finally see our daughter, and we could live together as a family of three again. As a result, it was said to be a bizarre fire, and at that time there was a lot of chaos there, and my friend's home was not spared, and because my friend's home was in the suburbs, it was not discovered in time. ”

"In this way, our daughter who lives there is also involved, we went crazy to find our daughter, but basically all the corpses are miserable, in the end, we only got the result that everyone in the family has no life, we lost our daughter forever, lost the treasure that nothing can replace, we only have despair in our hearts, while pushing the child to the fate of death, we don't know what the meaning of living is, so we are ready to die together, but at that time, we know that the wife has been pregnant with Colin, that is, the child's younger brother, the reality isAfter knowing this, we regained the courage to live. ”

"In order to prevent another failure, we only engaged in reliable and serious business, and then Colin was born, and we slowly settled down, but during that time, we have been deliberately avoiding the pain of our daughter's death because of our own misuse, avoiding the sins we have committed. ”

"That's the mistake we made as a couple, sorry, for telling this long, boring story. Harold said.

"Nothing. Lloyd said complicatedly.

"Well, what should I say? Ellie said.

Randy said, "It's an unfortunate thing. ”

Sophia said, "However, as the child grew up, we saw the shadow of our daughter, and before we knew it, we began to be tormented by a sense of guilt, if only we hadn't let go of those little hands at that time." ”

"No matter how painful and difficult it is, it would be nice if we could get through it together as a family, and such regrets have always haunted us. ”

So, we decided to believe once again that Colin was born because of the guidance of his dead daughter and goddess. Harold said.

"So we have to live happily as a family, and we firmly believe that this is the only way to repay our daughter, although I know very well that this is a very selfish reason. ”

"Mr. Harold. Lloyd said.

"I think that's a way of thinking," Teo said. ”

Randy: "yes, it's better than holding back with strange regrets. ”

Harold: "Thank you, but there's something incredible in the world, the little girl who reached out to Colin has the same hair color as me."

"The child, our dead daughter, also had violet-colored hair. ”

Ellie said, "So. ”

"Well, it's like coming back from Heaven to save Colin, and if you find that little girl, can you please contact us?" said Sophia.

"We would like to meet her formally to express our appreciation. ”

"If we get in touch with her, we'll tell you about it," Lloyd said. ”

After Colin woke up, it was already dusk, and Harold was gone after they left.

The four of them returned to Lloyd's room.

"They're gone, come out, they're all right. Lloyd said.

Ling opened the cabinet and walked out of it.

"Ling. Tio said.

Lloyd said, "Is that good? go after it now, you should be able to catch up." ”

"No, that's enough, now Ling has one less reason to come to this city, so that's enough. Ling said.

"Yes. Lloyd said.

Ellie said, "Why, that's enough, Ling thinks you should do as much as you want." ’

Randy said, "Forget it, Miss, there are things in the world that ordinary people can't imagine, and it's not something that others can intervene in. ”

Ellie: "Yes, but. ”

Theo: "I feel the same way. ”

Ling said, "I don't have to put on such an expression, I'm fine, thank you, Brother Lloyd, you have removed a piece of the stone that hindered Ling." ”

"Yes, it's my pleasure to help you. Lloyd said.

"Well, everyone, I will definitely repay you well another day, your kindness today, so Ling will not pass it here. Ling said.

The four of Lloyd chased after them, but still didn't keep Ling.

"Is that really good? Don't chase after her and keep her. Ellie said.

"Well, of course I thought about it, but I always felt that it wasn't our mission," Lloyd said. ”

Randy: "?"

Theo said, "Do you have any reasoning?"

Lloyd said, "No, it's not so much reasoning as it is." ”

At this time, a familiar voice was heard.

"Well, may I ask anyone?"

The group returned to the first floor and saw Estelle and Joshua.

'Hehe, hey, I'm sorry for the sudden visit without prior contact. Estelle said.

Joshua: "I may be bothering you, but there's something I'd like to confirm right away, can I take up a little of your time?"

"It doesn't matter. Lloyd said.

Randy said, "What is it?"

"Is there anything about an underground auction?" asked Theo.

Istelle: "No, that's a shelf, but this afternoon, we got a sighting, and it's said that Lloyd was walking with someone. ”

"A certain character?"

"It's a girl with violet hair, and that girl should still be wearing a white dress. Joshua said.

Lloyd said, "Well, is that Ling?"

"Sure enough!" said Joshua solemnly.

Lloyd: "Wait a minute, do you have anything to do with Ling?"

Joshua nodded, "Yes." We hadn't seen each other in months, but she was in Crosbel. ”

Estelle: "Haha, that's great, okay, in that case, I'm going to let go of my hands and feet this time, even if I turn the whole Crossbell over, I'm going to definitely catch you." ”

Randy: "Ah, that little girl is so popular. ”

"Yes, Jonah was very popular with her, too. Tio said.

"Well, that kid isn't a guerrilla, she's too young after all, and she seems to be doing all sorts of dangerous things. Lloyd said.

Joshua said, "Yes, she is not a guerrilla. ”

Estelle smiled: "She is the most important family to us, and for more than half a year, we have been chasing that child, in order to catch that child and make her our family." ”

Lloyd said, "Family?"

Ellie said, "It seems like there are a lot of stories. ”

"Well, it's a long story. Estelle: "When I came to Crossbell, I got a pretty little bit of a picture. ”

Joshua said, "Don't be depressed, now is the critical time, and we have gathered the information of the Harolds, so that the child's heart will be opened." ”

"yes. !" said Istelle.

"Well, Mr. Harold, you know each other?" said Lloyd.

"Ah, it's them, why do you know. ”

"No, it's for some reason. Lloyd said.

Ellie: "It seems that it would be best to explain what happened today from beginning to end." ”

After the group sat down, Lloyd said, "In short, the kid went back just before you came here." ”

Estell: 'Ah, hate why that's happening, woo. ”

actually cried, willful not like the powerful guerrilla.

"Joshua, Lloyd, I'm sorry, but I don't know what to say, knowing that she is not an outcast, knowing that her parents really love her, that child can finally face the truth, which is painful and sad, but full of warmth. Estelle said.

Ellie: "Painful and sad, but full of warm truth, is it Mr. Harold's business?"

Joshua said solemnly, "She has experienced several incidents and incomprehensions of grief, and as a result, the child chose to deceive herself after going through the cruel path of hell. ”

"She can't be blamed for creating false parents who give up on finding the truth. ”

Randy: "I see, do you protect yourself because you're young?"

Theo: "However, you can't move forward, and you won't be able to go back to where you should be. ”

"Well, that's why we intend to help her and give her the courage to face the truth, which, according to the investigation, is a sad truth, but it does contain love. ”

Joshua said, "So, I believe that now she will be able to cross this hurdle, but now there is no need. ”

Lloyd said, "Well, at least she's got everything. ”

"yes, thank you Lloyd and everyone in the Support Section, I really don't know how to thank you. Joshua said sincerely.

"Haha, don't take it to heart, this kind of development is actually a bit natural, after all, we also got the help of that child. Lloyd said.

Ellie: "Hehe, indeed. ”

Estelle: "Well, it's decided, now that the biggest obstacle is gone, let's show no mercy to her men! Wait and see, I'm not only going to peel you off, I'm going to turn you into my child!"

"Haha, that's amazing. ”

Randy laughed and said, "Ahaha, that's how she looks like Estil!"

Theo mused, "Anyway, it's too dazzling. ”

Joshua: "Hehe, it's Estelle's style to be driven, and there's nothing more terrifying than Estelle when she's on the highest." ”

Astelle: "Hmph, just leave it to me, and let me thank you again. She bowed her head deeply as she spoke.

Joshua said, "In any case, anything can be called to us in the future, after all, there is no barrier between us." ”

Istelle: "Haha, I'll do my best to help you." ”

"I see, if there's a case, I'm really counting on you. Lloyd said.

Then, Lloyd, Estelle and the others went to the East Main Street restaurant together for dinner, which strengthened their friendship.

The two of them told the story of Liber and the mysterious place of association with the girl named Rei.

The night of the fourth day of the memorial festival passed with all sorts of astonishing information.

。。。。

The next day, at breakfast.

Randy said, "Oh, but what I heard yesterday is really amazing, those two men entered into such an exaggerated battle. ”

Ellie: "I've heard a lot about Liberal's mutation, but it seems that the truth is more surprising than I thought. ”

"And there's the so-called association, the snake that devours the body. "I've heard that they have the most advanced technology, and their power is far greater than that of the Ep and Chase workshops. ”

"But I didn't expect it to be this scale. ”

Lloyd said, "I really didn't expect it, but according to Joshua, the power of the association barely extends to this side. ”

Ellie said, "Maybe it's because Crosbell hasn't reached the point where they get their attention. ”

"Even so, I can't laugh at all. Lloyd said. ，

Randy also said bitterly, "The mysterious association is really getting more and more chaotic, and it is not easy to deal with any of them. ”

That's when there was a knock on the door.

A young man who came in was the driver of yesterday's transport company.

"Excuse me, you worked hard yesterday, but that kid managed to find it so good, his parents must be worried, right?"

"Haha, of course. ”

"Didn't you get disciplined by the company?" said Randy.

"Well, that's not true, it's just that the thing was delivered late, and the guest complained a few words.

But my dad is the president, and they can't do anything about me. The driver said.

"Huh. Ellie said.

Theo said, 'Well, it's okay anyway. ’

Driver: "Well, I'm not here today to confirm yesterday's events, I'm here to deliver something to you." ”

Ellie said, "Was it from headquarters?"

Driver: "No, it looks like I received a courier this morning, so please accept it." ”

Lloyd took the small package, and Ellie said, "It looks so small."

Driver: "So, I did deliver the things, so I'll take my leave." ”

Randy said, "Good work. ”

"Be careful next time, don't let the kids get into your car," said Theo. ”

The driver said, "Thank you for the advice!"
