Lloyd is currently in a very strange state, like a dream but not a dream, as if waking up but not waking up.

There are scrolls of paintings flowing in front of you, or they are colorful, or understated, or bizarre, and so on.

The protagonists in the painting scroll are all different, there are men and women, old and young, literati and artists, warriors and officers, from high-ranking officials and nobles to peddlers and pawns.

The only common denominator is probably the theme of the scroll - life, the life of a person.

Babbling, cardamom and green plums, young and frivolous, but not confused, he is like a bystander, passively observing the lives of different people, looking at the flowers.

After the initial novelty, Lloyd suddenly discovered that the lives depicted in the scrolls, although varied, were mostly incomplete - yes, the lives of these people were interrupted, some in youth, some in youth, some in middle age, except for the twilight years.

One person and two can be understood, after all, not everyone can die, but it is very doubtful that none of the more than 100 paintings will reach old age.

The search officer with a strong sense of justice, Lloyd, was desperate to know why, and this strong desire tore a crack in the sea of paintings, and he saw-

The center, wrapped in a myriad of scrolls, shimmers with a blue glow.

For some reason, a strong sense of familiarity welled up in Lloyd's heart.

It's within reach, but it's always a little bit off

"Lloyd"

"Hurry up, Lloyd"

The sound in his ears and the shaking of his body awakened Lloyd's consciousness, and he let out an "ah" and sat up suddenly.

Look around. The room was dim, and he could only see the incomprehensible face in front of him by the moonlight through the cracks in the curtains: "Waji, what time is it?" ”

"It's probably two o'clock in the night. You talk very well in your dreams, what's wrong? ”

"Oh, I think I had a weird dream, huh?" Lloyd subconsciously moved his left hand, without any feeling of oppression. When I lifted the quilt, I saw that there was nothing around me, and I couldn't help but change my complexion and exclaimed.

Kia, gone!!

Look, hurry up.

Lloyd, Randy, and Waji searched around the third floor, but they didn't find Kia anywhere. Not only did Kia not be found, but even Lien, who was originally drinking in the rest area, was nowhere to be found, so let's play "Anigema". This guy's "Anigema" and "ARCUS" plus homemade mobile phones are all resting on the bedside table, and it is useless to play.

Later, Tio, who sensed the aura of the trio, also walked out of the room and asked the female companions to search for it. In the end, I called the hotel staff and searched on the second floor, but still found nothing. Due to the particularity of the hotel industry, it is impossible for the hotel to search for every room, let alone two o'clock at night.

Conventional methods have not worked, and skilled masters have begun to use unconventional means again.

Droplet communicates with the elf. It's a pity that her ice elves are not the wind elves of Gaius's faith, and they don't play a role in finding people.

Theo puts on cat ears. Activates a sensor that amplifies telepathic abilities. As a result, a lot of messy emotions were contaminated, but I didn't find Kia's "voice". (In the hotel, there is a telepathic sensor Theo, you are looking for dirt by yourself.) ）

Lixia is even more exaggerated, releasing Moonlight Butterfly and sweeping all the nearby shopping streets, still with no clues.

Just when everyone was anxious. Zeite appeared, accompanied by a distinctive roar.

"Woohoo."

"It said, 'Follow me, over here, Kia may be in danger, and Rien needs support.'" Theo translated.

“！！！”

The next second. The combatants acted as a group, not rushing out, but each returning to his room to get his equipment.

Reality is not a game, you are fully armed everywhere you go, how can you carry a weapon with you when you are looking for a girl in the hotel.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

At the same time, Joker's Wonderland.

With the appearance of Kemparella, a layer of mist rolls and ripples, rendering the already eerie atmosphere even more terrifying.

"Tsk." Lai looked around with interest, as if admiring a beautiful work of art: "Although Luciola is a recognized master of illusion among the executors, I think she is inferior to you. I can still see some flaws in her illusion, and your illusion has never been found. ”

"Thanks for the compliment." Kempareira owed, "But is that good?" I just met Luciola and was talking about her behind my back. ”

"To tell you the truth, I will say it behind my back or in person. Besides, you think she really can't see it? Just don't talk about it. ”

"Hehe, a woman with a secret is beautiful." Kempareira chuckled, "But it's not good to get too much into the lady's secrets." ”

"Uh, take the liberty of asking, are you a man or a woman?" This is a question that Lane has been hiding in his heart for 20 years - before and after the crossing.

"Guess?" The smile on Kemparella's face grew brighter.

But Lane didn't feel any sunlight, but his hair stood on end, like falling into an ice cellar.

Wrapped around his body, the self-circulating two qi of heaven and earth seemed to be stimulated by some kind of stimulation, and suddenly became violent, setting off a hurricane, and the surrounding fog suddenly cleared.

At the same time, there is also a danger hidden in the fog - two fog demons with evil deeds like evil spirits in the upper body, and empty like ghosts in the lower body.

"Luciola's messenger?" A hint of solemnity appeared on Riene's face. Half of Luciola's combat power is in the demons, and the two good ghosts and the guardian ghosts in front of her are the two she is most proud of. The physical resistance of the ghost protector is extremely high, and the good ghost barely eats magic attacks, and the combination of the two is enough to give most masters a headache.

If Li En is in good condition, he is naturally not afraid, and what he is not afraid of is this kind of unilateral and extremely strengthened opponent. However, his injuries have not healed now, and normal wielding of the knife is a problem, so he can't be careless.

"Oh, it's not a coincidence, what you just said seems to have them off. I envy Luciola, who has such a faithful messenger. But what the hell was that? Spell? Martial arts? It doesn't seem to look like it. ”

"Guess?" Rien raised an eyebrow.

"Can't guess. Try again and maybe you'll know. Kemparella snapped his fingers, and the good ghost protector approached again.

"No, you don't have a chance." Rien shook his head.

When the silver moon is in the sky, it blooms brightly, and the fog dissipates as far as the moonlight reaches.

The wind broke loudly. The sword light was brilliant, shaped like a waning moon, and the two ends made the demon be crushed in an instant.

The knife wind stopped, the knife was light, and Yaniras put the knife back into the sheath: "Lien, are you okay?" ”

There is a plain hand Qianqian, put it on the back of Kemparela's neck, and the owner of the hand has a cold face: "Don't move." ”

"It's Miss Lixia, it's a beautiful sneaker. It's a pity that the wrong target was chosen. ”

The voice wasn't coming from Lixia's eyes. Instead, to her right, there stood another Kemparela, the figure she had restrained and unreal.

"Who?" Others who were a few steps behind also arrived.

"It's so unkind. We obviously had a relationship, and we are not strangers who have never met. Right? Ladies and gentlemen of the Special Mission Support Division. ”

The slightly flirtatious tone, as if playful, awakened the memories of Lloyd and others.

"Are you the hacker who set up a trap in Jonah's room?" Theo's eyes were cold.

"At the same time, it is also the people who give the information of the Orchid Tower to those terrorists." Lloyd added, "The last time we saw each other was in front of the puppet workshop, right? ”

"Hehe, that's right. Executor of "The Snake of the Devouring Body". NO.0 - "Taoist Master" Kemparela. Please advise me in the future. ”

"The Snake of the Devourer", the executor. These two words are very common to the Support Division. The culprit of Liber's mutation, in the mouths of Lien, Estiel and others, is that the strength and power are above any country in the Western Continent, and he is so tricky that he is unwilling to face the second opponent. Now, their clutches have reached Crossbell, and they are also working with terrorists.

For a moment, everyone's faces became extremely ugly.

"What a misfortune they are. "Black Moon" and "Red Constellation" can encounter such dangerous enemies. ”

Kempareira looked like he didn't care about himself. It made people angry when they saw it, and Noel was the first to break out.

"What are you talking about, no matter how you say it, you are also companions who help each other!"

Kempareira laughed even better: "Ahaha, they're just one of the pawns I've used. I just think it's interesting how they act. Just casually offer some help. As for their ideas and thoughts, I'm not even interested in them~"

"Hmm" Noel's silver teeth clenched, and his face was red with anger.

"Hmph, this kid's personality is really bad." Waji, who has always been said to have a bad personality, is also a little unbearable.

"Maybe you can compete with Mr. Waji." Theo blacked both of them with a blank expression.

"That's all for jokes, what are your intentions in coming to Crossbell? More importantly, where did you take Kia!! In the last half of the sentence, Lloyd almost roared, and half of the park echoed his roar, "Even if it is by force, I will let you say it!" ”

The others also put on a posture, obviously intending to start fighting immediately without saying a word.

"Hehehe, the momentum is really good." Kempareira still had the same playful attitude, "I didn't do anything to your little princess, though, I just saw her staggering past here." ”

"What?" Lloyd didn't believe it at all.

"Do you want to deny it?" Randy's voice was grim.

"Facts are facts, otherwise how could three old friends let me go so easily?"

It was only then that Lloyd and the others suddenly realized that Lane, Lixia, and Yaniras were gone.

"I'm just here to say hello to you today."

Kempareira snapped his fingers again, and the scenery around him changed, and the Joker's Wonderland was restored to Missy Theme Park, as if everything that had just happened was a dream.

"By the way, say hello to Arios Marklyin and Guy Bannings for me, and say that I had a lot of fun this time, and I hope to have so much fun in the future." (To be continued.) )
