Lloyd came to Joy Street alone.

Unlike the deserted boroughs, Joy Street is full of festive vibes, as its name suggests. The borough always has a serious feel because the city hall and the police station are there. If it weren't for the fact that the procession of the festival would pass by, I am afraid that no one would pass by during the festival.

I divided the work with my colleagues in the Support Division. Looking for this kind of thing, of course, the more detailed the division of labor, the higher the efficiency.

The areas Lloyd is responsible for are: Joy Street, Back Alley, Central Plaza, Station Front and West Street. It may sound like Lloyd has taken over most of the work at once, but in reality, none of these places are very large, and there are few forks in the road or places to hide. It's easier to search.

Randy and Ellie are in charge of the Borough, the Harbor, and the East. Ellie starts in the borough, Randy starts in the East, and finally meets in the harbor area. All three areas are very large and require a dedicated search.

Noelle is in charge of the Old Town. It's a mixed bag, with the Sabers and Serpents, the Holy Book Society, the Karumon Consortium, and the new Slave Fighters...... You need someone who first has a certain amount of combat effectiveness and will not provoke conflict. In fact, it doesn't matter who comes here, Randy or Noelle, and it doesn't matter who is more suitable for Randy's indifferent character or Noelle's righteous character.

However, considering the warlike nature of Valudo, the leader of the Sword and Serpent Gang, I am afraid that when I see Randy, I can't help but go up and provoke. As soon as he finds him, something will definitely happen. However, Noelle and the Sword Serpent Gang are not familiar with each other, so Lloyd still judged that Noelle is more suitable here than Randy.

Together, Theo and Hoseo are tasked with following Zeat in search of flavors. Hexu is a child himself, and he is very playful, and it is troublesome enough for the support department to find a lost child, and if a child is lost at this moment, then he really can't work...... Theo can understand Zeit's words, and there is no doubt that he is in a group with Zeat.

Lloyd also considered what should be done if he was there?

But no matter how you think about it, you can only get him and yourself together. His advantage lies in speed, but now speed is not important, the important thing is to find all the places, in this sense, you can say that it is not suitable to find people.

He is more suitable for purposeful rescue than aimless searching. From this point of view, Lloyd once again felt that You knew himself accurately. Offered to go to the hospital to deal with that ** annoyance.

After grouping, in the face of the crowded Happy Street, even Lloyd felt that he couldn't start.

However, the clever teenager quickly decided on his own search policy.

Search targets are mainly front desks and open-air snack bars. If the child enters the store, then there is no doubt that the first person to find him should be the front desk staff. Maybe he didn't wonder why he only had one child, but it should have left an impression. As for the open-air snack bar, it's easier to understand. Children are easily attracted to the food, and they may be caught by the food somewhere.

Outcome...... I haven't seen any of them. Whether it's the Rainbow Theatre, hotels, or even casinos, I asked, but no one has ever seen a lonely child.

Heading to the back alley, it's the same result.

Come to think of it, children rarely like eerie places. Just when Lloyd wanted to leave the back alley and head to the central square......

"Ah, big brother, it's been a long time."

Girl's voice. Lloyd turned around and saw a little purple-haired girl in a black and white Lolita gown walking towards him. Although he is the same age as Theo, he walks with a sense of nobility, not like an ordinary child.

Seeing her, Lloyd subconsciously tensed his body.

He had heard the man lobbied.

The executor to which the snake belongs, the angel of annihilation, Ling. Although she looks like a young girl, in fact, she has the strength to be equal to the A-class guerrillas. But the danger is relatively low, because she likes to "play".

"Oh? Big brother, do you really know Ling's identity~"

Seeing through Lloyd's nervousness, Ling smiled sadistically very happily. His brown eyes narrowed slightly.

"Gui'an, big brother. Even if you know the lady's past, you shouldn't be rude. ”

It seems that the noble smile of a noble lady somewhere, with Ling's cute dress, is a fairy tale goblin who is alive.

"Hmm...... Good day. But...... It's not so much that I haven't seen you for a long time...... Actually, we just met yesterday. Is it called Xiaoling, or is it called a kitten? ”

Lloyd remembered Yu's words.

After meeting Ling, don't pretend that you don't know anything. That would irritate her. Instead, you should act like you know something inside, and try your best to trick her words. In this way, with her intelligence, she must have seen through your cliché at once, but she will not get angry, but will go around in circles with you. If you can enter the "chat", then you can rest assured that she should not take out a sickle and slash indiscriminately.

So, Lloyd immediately pointed out the fact that he already knew that Ling was a kitten.

"Oh? What a faux pas. For the lady's name, you should keep in mind that the next time we meet, you should greet you elegantly, right? ”

Ling still responded elegantly, and there was no condensation of killing intent in her clean eyes.

"Sorry, kitten doesn't sound like a girl's name, it's Ling, right?"

"Hmm."

With a simple nod of affirmation, Ling looked at Lloyd with interest, as if expecting his next reaction.

Lloyd couldn't help but let out a bitter voice in his heart: Really, I didn't say this to please you. I'm really curious about something......

"So, Ling, what are you doing here? You can't get lost, right? ”

It seems that he is asking about Rei's itinerary, but if it is Rei, he must be able to read the meaning of Lloyd's words, "I am looking for someone who is lost".

"Huh?"

Sure enough, there was a reaction. Ling's eyes spun quickly, and finally glanced behind her.

"I'm here to play at the antique shop here today-big brother, are you here too?"

From Ling's words, Lloyd read the feelings of teasing.

Teasing is teasing. At least there wouldn't be any physical danger, and Lloyd didn't have time to get hurt right now. You have to hurry up and find the child.

"No, it's work. Look for lost children. His parents were in a hurry. ”

As soon as Lloyd finished speaking, Ling immediately asked, "Lost children?" Sounds like a lot of fun. What kind of child is it, do you have a photo? ――Reiko is super good at peek-a-boo! ”

The biggest difference between Ling and other executors is that she follows the fun or not-fun actions. If it makes her interesting, she'll even help you.

Here's another piece of advice from Yukyo. It's as if he himself often messes around with Rei.

Lloyd showed her the photos he had got, and whether she left without interest, or if she was interested in helping, it was a good thing for Lloyd.

"Uh-huh, let Ling take a look~"

Ling is in a good mood today, I don't know if it's because she played Jonah and herself on the Internet yesterday.

However, as soon as she saw the photo, the cheerful smile on Ling's face stiffened suddenly. Gradually, the smile was put away. The expression became serious and serious.

How? Did this photo arouse her disgust? Could it be that she has something to do with this little boy? No, probably not. The child is still young, maybe he has a grudge against the Hyvas, and then he is angry with the child. However, Ling put on this expression, at least she herself should not have kidnapped this child.

What to do? Over here...... How should I react?

Let's just get straight to it.

"What? Do you know this kid? ”

Seeing her expression change, it was normal to ask

Ling's expression was a little distracted, as if she didn't react to Lloyd's words, and after a while, Ling's small lips opened slightly.

"Nope. Ling...... I don't know ...... I don't know such people. ”

I've already said it......

Whether it is the obviously angry "I don't know" or "like this", which is obviously a statement that knows the other party well, and Ling's serious and somewhat lost look now, all show that Ling has something to do with this lost child, Colin.

But what exactly is the relationship? Let's go back and ask Mr. You and Mr. Harold. The highest priority now is to find Colin.

"Yes."

Lloyd nodded in response, just about to say that there was no way, and then turned to leave, but he didn't want Ling to cut the distance between him with an arrow step, and his small body threw himself into Lloyd's arms.

Although it was a little beauty, Lloyd was not happy at all......

Because his lower abdomen was being held against something.

The pointy metallic texture touches against the skin, and the coldness spreads quickly from one point to the heart and spirit.

Ling used her body to cover the blade hidden in her hand.

"Big brother, it just seems to be ...... What do you know? Are you teasing Rei? ”
