As Alex struggled to kick Serra's "death message" on the ground, Serra sat up from the ground rubbing the bulging bag above her head. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Ahh As she spoke, she turned her head naturally, and was stunned for a moment when she saw Alex standing next to her with her arms crossed and Hill, who was looking at her with concern.

"You ...... Who is it? ”

"Hey."

Alex responded with a cold gaze, but Sierra ignored it.

"Uh-I feel like a mess in my head, where is this? Who am I? Oh no, I can't seem to remember anything-"

She hugged her head with a vigorous movement, and displayed a rather pompous gesture of panic.

"Doctor—call the doctor! Call me a doctor with huge boobs, you idiots! ”

"Oh no, Alex. The master seems to have lost his memory. ”

Hill looked at Alex with clear, unwavering eyes, "What to do—Alex somehow was able to read such a message.

"Don't worry, Ciel, I bet as my heroine that this thing is 100% pretending to be crazy and stupid."

At this moment, Serra's eyes lit up as she looked around at Alex, Ciel, and the basket full of vegetables next to her. She slapped her left palm with her right hand, revealing an expression of sudden realization.

"Ahh Could it be that I am the keeper of the field who was knocked out by you—"

"Shut up, you thief." Alex couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Look at your own outfit before you speak." ”

"Outfit?"

Sierra looked down curiously, then shouted in surprise.

"Wow! Bang -

The white smoke from the collision with the high-speed flying shield on Serra's head fell to the ground again, and on the other side, Alex was desperately trying to break free from Ciel's hold.

"Let go of me Ciel, I've put up with this guy for a long time!"

"No fighting."

In the midst of the noise, Serra straightened up as if nothing had happened. After stretching and standing up, she expertly carried the basket to her body.

"It's not too early, let's hurry back to the tavern."

"Until then! Put your booty back in its place! ”

"Stolen goods?" Serra looked back at the various vegetables in the basket in confusion, and then stared at Alex with wide eyes: "How can you smear people's innocence out of thin air like this-"

"How can you be innocent of a current criminal with a long history!?"

"Wait...... It's a no-brainer! Just because people have had a little misconduct once or twice before, they charged me with a crime without distinguishing, really! What's wrong with people now? Shalom is the same, every time he loses his underwear, he directly targets me, and shamelessly snatches all my collectibles-"

"It's you who are shameless!" Alex couldn't help but complain loudly, and then looked at Serra with a cold gaze: "Besides, we have all witnessed your crime with our own eyes, what else is there to say......"

"Hmph-" Sierra smugly wagging her index finger from side to side for some reason, "It's naïve Alex - sometimes, what you see isn't necessarily reliable." ”

What is a thief doing here!? Alex couldn't help but be furious when she saw that smug face.

Not caring about the nameless fire that Alex had lit, Serra explained herself with a smug gesture.

"I came to pick the vegetables with the owner's permission, understand? So these things are not stolen goods at all......"

That's what she said. Ciel, what do you think? ”

Alex turned her head to look at Ciel, and the boy blinked in the moonlight.

"I believe in the master."

"Ciel—" Serra's eyes moistened, revealing a look of emotion.

Under such a moving gaze, Hill continued without moving-

"So, it's better to return what you stole to everyone."

"Huh? Strange, Ciel, what do you mean by believing? Serra couldn't help but blink.

"No doubt it's yours!"

Seeing Alex's cold gaze, she panicked and shouted in defense.

"No, it's not! This is the reward for lending that bear yesterday! Because the guy who slammed the door said he couldn't get 30 gold coins anyway, so he let me pick my own vegetables as a substitute - trust me! ”

What she said made sense, and Alex and Ciel looked at each other, slightly agreeing.

"Even if so, why do you have to come in the middle of the night? You can do this kind of thing during the day, right? ”

Hearing Alex's words, Sierra had an incomprehensible expression.

"What are you talking about, Alex?" She shook her head helplessly, as if the girl had said something unbelievably stupid: "If you come in the daytime, you will definitely be seen by the people around you, right?" What if they catch me like a thief? ”

“……”

Wow...... Alex thought silently. She neither understood nor wanted to understand this consideration, which was peculiar to being recognized as a repeat offender. In the face of Serra's imposing face, the girl could only be silent.

"Really? Is it really one of those giant robots like in the movies? ”

On the way back to the tavern, Ciel gives an overview of what he and Alex have seen. Hearing what the disciple said, Serra had an excited expression on her face.

"Not robots, to be exact, but giant golems made of metal." Alex added on the side: "I can't help but fly, and my left arm will shoot a dangerous beam of light for some reason, which is completely an opponent who is out of specification." ”

-- However, we were defeated. This was the meaning of Alex, who was looking up proudly, but it was clearly not understood by Serra.

"How big? How big is it? Serra's tone was agitated.

"Probably so, as tall as two 'Torotaro'."

"Uh-huh, I see, that's what it is." Serra nodded as she rubbed her chin with one hand, and the next moment, a gleam flashed in her eyes: "In that case, the price of selling for millions of gold coins is not a fantasy at all." ”

“.…..”

"It's a pity, but your plan to make a fortune is impossible."

Alex poured cold water on her enthusiasm on the sidelines.

"Why!? Do you say, "Do you want to keep it to yourself?" Alex! I don't remember teaching you to be such a child! ”

"I don't remember being taught by you." After Alex replied coldly, she sighed softly: "Those things should have been taken away by the people of the Seed Management Association, and they are said to be very important evidence." ”

"I don't care about that kind of thing!" Serra shouted, "This is plunder! It is the hegemonic behavior of public power over individuals! I strongly protest against this blatant violation of my property ownership! ”

“…… I don't want to hear you thief tell us about property ownership. Alex said weakly.

By now, she didn't bother to complain about Serra's sneaking up on her and Ciel's loot for herself.

As they spoke, they had already entered the tavern. Although Serra shouted from the side, "It's the first time I've worn this kind of clothes to enter and exit from the main entrance, and it's a wonderful sense of taboo!" That said, but both Ciel and Alex ignored it.

With a few hours to go until dawn, both Ciel and Alex were in dire need of rest after a day of trekking and fierce fighting. But how do you sleep?

Sleeping in the same room as before, although Ciel obviously didn't care, Alex would never agree. No other part of the town will run out of spare rooms, but it's not a good time to disturb others. As Alex was distressed, Ciel tugged at her dress.

"The lights in the room, on."

Following Ciel's point, Alex saw that the room she had been living in - Ciel's room was shining through the doors and windows, apparently with a light on in the room.

"You guy, did you forget to turn off the lights?"

Alex looked at Serra, who had been in and out of the windowsill of that room all night, according to her previous words. Then when you go out and you light the lights and forget to turn them off, this is obviously the most reasonable explanation.

Serra, however, shook her head resolutely.

"Impossible! How many times do you think I've been in and out of there? With my current ability, there is no need to light a lamp when I pass by! ”

"What's there to be proud of!?"

Ignoring Alex's complaints, Serra's face froze.

"--Could it be a thief!?"

Both Ciel and Alex were dumbfounded - could there be a thief other than you in the Kiss of Death?

But Serra didn't think about it in the slightest, she was gritting her teeth and making a look of hatred.

"Damn, the person I hate most in my life is the person who stole my things! If you have big boobs, it's fine, but if you're poor, I'm going to beat you up—"

Basically, she has for some reason limited the other party to women.

With that, Serra had already thrown down the wooden basket and rushed upstairs. Ciel and Alex can only follow.

A short distance from the first floor to the second floor, Serra climbed the stairs and ran through the hallway, shouting and rushing to push open the illuminated door.

"Hold me back, you thief—"

The door was pushed open on both sides, and when they saw the scene inside, the three of them stood silently at the door.

After a moment, Alex was the first to break the silence.

"What are you doing...... Miss Shalom. ”
