"Joker... Dorothy... She... She's yours too... Your sister..."

Kasa looked at his young "self" with cloudy eyes, and the Clown Emperor's eyes suddenly lit up, but then he turned his head to look in the direction of the blade cage.

"Broken copper and iron, I said you just hang up quietly, don't you see that the Clown Emperor is doing business, noise!

The silk threads between the fingers of the two palms suddenly tightened, and the Clown Emperor soared into the air, and the silver dagger that formed the blade cage spun violently.

A swift black shadow flashed in front of Al's eyes, and then Al felt his body and languid Kasa being pulled back and dragged back, and when he turned around, it was Li Shiyi's iron-blue face.

"Senior brother?"

"The bee bomb is exploding. ”

It only took a few seconds for Li Shiyi to take Al and Kalai to hide in a hidden place under the high platform, and it was at this time that an accident happened.

A dull explosion sounded, and the tyrannical flames lit up the shattered room at once, but the powerful shock wave did not come as expected, and everyone invariably raised their heads to look at the center of the explosion.

Like a blazing fire lantern, the blade cage suddenly spread, and the silver dagger shattered into countless fragments for a while, but they were not crushed by this mighty flame, and when the blade cage swelled to the extreme, they began to slowly shrink.

The shards of steel had turned red from the heat of the fire, and even some of the smaller shards had begun to melt, but they were not washed away.

"It's the Clown Emperor. ”

Al looked at the childish boy in the heights, his fragile golem body being ignited in the heat and filled with cards flying from the other golems' bodies, the tough threads that connected him to the blade cage, and it was he who was wielding the silver daggers so that they were not destroyed in the explosion.

"If it weren't for this damn puppet body limiting my strength, I would have thrown you into the ironworks to melt into molten iron, with that guy named Cook. ”

The Clown Emperor's face collapsed as it was ignited by the heat, and then a string of playing cards flew up to fill it.

Quickly opening his arms, his fingers bent, the Clown Emperor pulled down the taut silk thread suddenly, only to see the blade cage slowly rotate again, like an exploding star reversing time, the original chaos is returning to the previous state little by little, the blade cage is the same, the explosive light flame in the center is also compressing and condensing, and the frantic energy is slowly being suppressed by the Clown Emperor.

"You guys, get out of here with that guy! this is the first and last time I've spared my prey target, and you should be glad you do that. ”

The Clown Emperor in mid-air turned his head to look at Al and his party.

"Also," the Clown Emperor's eyes rolled slightly to Kasa, "if Dorothy is still alive, please don't tell her that there is a personality like me that has ever appeared in his brother, and that she has only one brother, and that is you, Kasa." ”

The glint in his eyes dissipated at once, and the Clown Emperor turned his head, leaving a back that had been destroyed and reborn in the flames to everyone.

"She hasn't seen me, she doesn't know me, but I still love her..."

"No, clown, come back!"

As if he had a premonition, he tried his best to break free from El's support and walked towards the Clown Emperor, but his weak body still had extra strength.

"Remember, my Clown Emperor..."The contours of the Clown Emperor's face changed rapidly, the youthful appearance had faded, and a series of colored paints had appeared on his face, which was the classic appearance of the clown, "... I have been to this world once! I was born to kill, and I died to kill!"

"Joker!

Another mouthful of blood poured out of his throat, and Kasa collapsed limply to the ground, his eyes full of the Clown Emperor alone rushing towards the blade cage.

"Hee-hee-hee, hahaha..."

The sickly and hurried laughter came to an abrupt end, and when the blade cage shrank to its original size, the clown emperor's body suddenly transformed into a thousand flying playing cards, which were like moths swooping down on the flames, enveloping the blade cage layer after layer.

The flames flickered on everyone's faces, and it seemed that everyone had guessed the purpose of the Clown Emperor's actions, but everyone didn't expect this murderous guy to make such a choice at the last moment.

"Bang!"

The sound of the explosion shook a thick cloud of smoke around the stone bed, and the energy mass imprisoned by the blade cage finally exploded, but not a single blade splashed out, and the humanoid cage remained the same, but it looked charred and blackened on the outside.

"He... Gone... I can't feel him anymore..."

The little rabbit in the pocket crept out, sniffed a falling playing card, and ran away, which was the half-lit "King Joker".

"Maybe that's a relief for him..."

Al looked at the humanoid cage on the stone bed, and a mixed emotion rippled through his heart.

The air slowly settled, and the silence was as overwhelming as if one were lost in a dark forest.

Yukiko walked to Li Shiyi's side with Suizi, and they also looked at the falling charred black paper flowers silently, and Li Shiyi turned around silently after stopping for a few seconds, silently walking towards the secret wooden doors on the high platform.

Yukiko is using her "ninjutsu" healing methods to give Kasa an emergency treatment with the help of Al al, and although it has little effect, she has to do it.

Al didn't want to look Yukiko's eyes, because he knew that he would be disappointed and helpless in response.

"Kasa, we're about to find Dorothy, didn't you say you were going to rescue her?, promise me, don't fall asleep!" Al held Kasa's hand tightly, although they were not friends, they could both feel a trace of warmth in each other's palms.

"Thank you, Ai, Mr. Moby Dick... He didn't look at the wrong person... Although you are not on our side... But you're a good opponent..."

Kasa was so weak that she couldn't even speak in a subtle voice.

"Miss Yukiko, please help Kasa stop the bleeding as soon as possible, I'll take him to the school hospital, and Miss Suiko will go with me. ”

Al looked anxiously at Yukiko and Suiko, who was already soaked in sweat on the side, her injuries were just as bad, but not life-threatening.

"Are you sure you want to save him?" Yukiko carefully bandaged Kasa's wounds, which were immediately stained red with blood as soon as she bandaged a layer, "Don't forget, he is an assassin of the Raven Order, a felony who assassinated Imperial officials, and if you save him, you will become a rebel and will be hanged." ”

Yukiko's words made Al fall silent, although he had no ill will towards Kasa, but the Empire was going to order them to be exterminated, as the side that defended the Empire's position, what should he do?

"Anyway, I'm going to save Kasa first, Dorothy can't live without her brother," Al looked at Yukiko, "I know the pain of losing a loved one best, Miss Yukiko, please rest assured, I won't tell anyone that you helped treat Kasa." ”

Yukiko kept her head down and didn't respond, she didn't stop the bandaging task in her hand, still trying to stop the bleeding from the wound for Kasa.

"Squeak", one of the closed wooden doors was pushed open by Li Shiyi, it was pitch black inside, Li Shiyi wanted to turn on the light on the wall, but found that there was no reaction at all.

After the rain, the moonlight was bright and clean, and the soft light spilled in from outside the iron window, slowly moving his gaze upward, and the scene in front of him made Li Shiyi's heart tighten.

Several female prisoners in prison uniforms were tied to wooden stakes, their mouths gagged by ropes, some still conscious, some already unconscious, and they opened their tired eyes and watched the figure of the teenager vigilantly.

One of the maidens still had a filthy silver cross around her neck, gleaming in the cold moonlight, and there was no doubt that they were the last nuns to be imprisoned.

"Senior brother?"

Al turned his head to look in the direction of Li Shiyi, only to find that Li Shiyi had left at some point.

He crept up to the high platform himself, not knowing what to do. ”

Suizi's pale lips opened and closed slightly, and he said where Li Shiyi went.

As Al looked up at the high platform, about seven or eight trembling figures, all women, came out from behind the wooden door, supporting each other.

"It's really the nuns who were imprisoned, I didn't expect Cook to hide them here!" Al recognized the girls in prison uniforms at a glance.

"Kasa... Brother..."

A girl's voice came from the high platform with a crying voice, and then I saw a girl with limited mobility running down from the high platform with her hands on the wall, and fell down several times due to her unstable body on the way, but she still couldn't wait to run towards the hat.

"Dorothy..."

Kasa, whose consciousness was gradually blurring, somehow recognized Dorothy's voice in an instant, and his eyes were full of stars.

Dorothy was also not in good shape, her tattered prison uniform was covered with blood from the whipping, and tears continued to well-up in her eyes, and Dorothy threw herself into Kasa's arms.

"Brother, where have you been all these years, I thought you had left this world a long time ago..."

Dorothy's tears dripped down Kasa's chest like pearls.

"Dorothy, it's good to see you again in this life... I thought you had forgotten about me..."

A bitter smile appeared on Kasa's stiff face, and he reached out with a trembling hand and gently stroked Dorothy's hair, until this moment, Kasa felt that everything he had done was worth it.

"Brother, you are my brother, my only relative in this world..."

Hearing Dorothy's words, the pain on Kasa's face seemed to disappear all at once, and it was the happiest laugh in his life.

"Ahh Your injuries... Brother, why is this happening..."

"It's okay, Dorothy, it's my fate... Don't be upset... I don't regret it..."
