"I picked it up. Elsie looked into the man's eyes, trying not to tremble in his voice.

"Picked up?" The man shook the jade pendant slightly, his expression unpredictable, and Elsie didn't know if he believed it or not.

"Tell me, when and where did you pick it up?" the man's face suddenly enlarged and moved closer to Elsie, who couldn't help but lean back, he was so close that the threat was overflowing.

"In ...... A year ago, outside the city of Colono, in the eastern jungle of the Lost Valley. Elsie tried to calm her expression and increase the credibility of her words, as she felt the wound in her chest tingle and seemed to cough uncontrollably again.

"You're lying. The man made a slow and logical conclusion.

Elsie was extremely afraid that he would say this, and hurriedly argued: "It's true! I'm a student of St. Rini, and we had a routine out-of-school practice a year ago, and our destination was there!"

Elsie suddenly exerted her strength, and there was a suffocating pain in her chest, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth and cough violently, almost fainting, and then calming down, her hands were full of blood, and even fragments of internal organs.

Elsie stared at her bloody hands, a little desperate.

"Hmph, how did you pick up such a small thing? ”

"I ......" Elsey paused for a moment, but her desire to survive trumped everything, and quickly thought of Edwin's words, explaining: "We met "Wu" in the eastern jungle, and was lucky enough to be rescued by a great magician, who sensed this thing and said that it had the function of sheltering its owner, and when I heard it, I lied that I had dropped it and took it away. ”

Elsie understands that if she is caught lying, she will definitely die, so her words are eight points true and two points false, so it is easiest for people to believe that they are true, and the hesitation caused by lying is also understandable, after all, she is now almost on the verge of life and death, and it is very difficult to finish a paragraph completely.

The man lay back on the other side, staring at the jade stone and observing it repeatedly, Elsie didn't know if talking at this time would stimulate him, so he simply kept his mouth shut and endured the pain in his chest with all his strength.

I don't know how long it took, perhaps it was on the edge of dying that it was extraordinarily long, and Elsie felt that he had even lost consciousness before he heard the man's voice in a trance, which seemed to be: "Snow...... Alive... black ......", after that, there is no perception at all.

......

"I see Iri. As soon as Dusen entered the door, he didn't have time to sit down, so he said hurriedly.

Finally there was news, and Funi stood up and hurriedly asked, "How is he?"

"As expected, I was injured, but it seems to have won, and the doctor here has taken care of it, and should be able to go back with us in the evening. ”

"Well, he's already over the game, and then just let him stay in the station like Doro. Funnie relieved, but found that there was no familiar figure behind Dusen: "Where's Elsie? Why didn't you come back?"

Du Sen frowned: "I didn't see her, the people in the treatment room said they hadn't seen her at all." ”

Funnie's heart lifted again, "What's the matter? Where did she go? It can't be lost, right?"

"No," Cardin said slowly, "there are competition personnel everywhere, and she herself said that she would ask for directions, so she has to be stupid to get lost." ”

"Say less. Melody tugged at Rakadin's sleeve, and Cardin tilted his head and said no more.

Actually, there is truth to what he said. Dusen opened the door, "Do you want me to look for it?"

"Wait. Funi held out a hand, then silently raised her forehead, "Let me think about it...... Forget it, you go directly to the Saifang, tell them, help find it. ”

"I'm not sure what's going on, isn't it?" Dusen was a little puzzled.

"Without further ado, I think Elsie is a smart kid who doesn't leave for no reason, maybe something happened. ”

"I've participated in the new battle for so many years, and what has happened. Dusen muttered, but was slapped in the eye by Funi and quickly slipped out again.

......

"So, you're saying that a student has disappeared from us?" Rowling, who was always smiling, looked surprised for the first time.

"That's not what I mean...... Heck, almost, so I wanted you guys to help you find it, Elsie Gilbert from St. Rini's College. Dusen scratched his head, and he didn't know how to speak.

"Could it be that she was hanging out on the island of Ukiyo by herself, or was attracted to the game and didn't go back?" Rowling offered her opinion.

Du Sen immediately waved his hand: "No, she is not a child of this character, there is no news for no reason, so we are worried, you just say check it or not." ”

Rowling showed a decent smile: "Don't worry, as long as she is still on the Ukiyo Island, we will definitely find this student, I will inform the other group members to pay attention now, can you please describe the appearance of that child again." Rowling leaned down and pulled a notebook out of a drawer.

"Okay," Dusen described in detail, making sure that it was correct before leaving.

......

"Knock knock. ”

The silver-haired man was staring at the jade in his hand in a daze, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, raised his eyebrows and gave his subordinates a look, and quickly a person went over and opened the door.

Outside the door was a competition officer, and when he saw the people inside, he didn't go in, but stood outside the door and said, "Sorry to disturb you, honorable Lord Klaus, have you ever seen a little girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing a white gold uniform, about thirteen or fourteen years old?"

Klaus, the richly dressed silver-haired man, showed a playful smile: "Oh~ Did something happen?"

"Yes, I walked out of the lounge and disappeared. The man at the door explained respectfully.

"You'll have to look for it, it's safe here, but it's too dangerous for an underage girl to leave her teacher alone. Klaus frowned slightly, as if he was genuinely worried.

"Yes. We'll definitely try our best to find it. The competition staff at the door hurriedly bowed: "It seems that Master Klaus has never seen it, so I will retire first." So he spoke, but his footsteps did not move at all.

"Hmm~ Got it, let's go, let's go. It wasn't until Klaus shook his hand impatiently that the competition staff was pardoned, closed the door, stood outside, turned around and exhaled, and then wiped the sweat from his forehead: "This lord, it's still so terrifying......"

Watching the door close, Klaus lowered his head, his soft hair slipped, covering his cheeks and eyes, making it impossible to see through his expression, his hand rubbing the jade pendant, pursing his lips, not knowing what he thought.

The subordinates around him all stood respectfully, but their eyes involuntarily aimed at the sofa under Klaus, and at the bottom of the sofa, there was a blonde girl covered in blood, curled up in the dark, not knowing whether she was alive or dead.

......

"Still haven't found it yet?" Funy slammed the table, and the table with good material slammed into a splinter, which shook the competition personnel who came to inform them, and the vice president of this academy was angry and more terrifying than their team leader.

Funnie is a great magician, and there is still some coercion, and everyone was still a little lucky, but after they all started to look for it on the island of Ukiyo-e, until now it is late at night, and the other contestants and spectators are gone, and there is still no trace of Elsie.

Even Ukiyo-e realizes the seriousness of the situation, and when a new battle is held, a student disappears within their range for no apparent reason, and it is rumored that he will not be able to be discussed.

Funnie has always valued her students, not to mention that Elsie is the weakest and weakest of Solomon's students who came to Solomon this time. Her heart was already overflowing with worry, and she grabbed the collar of the competition staff uncontrollably: "Everyone is gone! Are you sure you have checked all the people who left?"

"Indeed...... Sure, this deputy courtyard, you calm down first, our people have been guarding the exit and the teleportation array for a day, but we haven't seen the missing students. "The competition staff was also aggrieved and nervous.

Du Sen hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Funi: "Deputy Courtyard, it's useless for you to beat him! Let's go to their steward first, and then think about what to do." ”

"Hmph!" Funnie shook her hand hard, let go of her hand, and pulled the tournament staff to a stagger, she turned her head, looked at Cardin and Melody who were still here, and frowned: "Dusen, you take them back first, they still have a game, don't stay here." ”

Du Sen also understood the priority of the matter, and nodded: "Deputy Yuan, are you following here?"

"Well, hmph, I'm going to turn this place upside down tonight, I can't believe I can't find anyone?!" Funnie rolled up her sleeves and followed the crew as if she was going to fight.

Du Sen looked back helplessly at the two of them: "Let's go." ”

......

Inside the Colono City garrison. Doro stood in front of the window of his room, staring at the courtyard under the moonlight, the other academies had come back a long time ago, but St. Rini had not returned for a long time, it was late at night, and Doro's uneasy feeling was even worse.

In a trance, I saw a familiar figure appear downstairs, and I turned around and walked out quickly.

"You go back to rest first, maybe tomorrow is your game, if you're hungry, I'll ask about the food-" Dusen was telling the two students in the corridor, when he suddenly felt a gust of wind coming to his side, and turned his head and retreated: "Doro?"

"Elsie. Doro's eyes were hidden in the drooping black hair, and his voice was low, as if he was suppressing something.

Dusen's mouth opened and closed, looking at Doro like this, he couldn't speak.

"She's missing. ”

Cardin's mouth was fast, and Melody was about to stop him, but he had already finished speaking. Doro's protection of Elsie was extreme, and everyone knew it, and Melody turned her head, not wanting to see his expression at the moment.

Doro's eyes darkened and darkened, and after a moment he asked in a dumb voice, "...... Where is it. ”

"Ukiyo-eki. Seeing this, Du Sen could only tell the truth.

"Oh, Doro, where are you going?!come back!"

Doro turned and rushed out, and when Dusen reached out to pull it, the man was gone.
