Chapter 4 Garcia

"No, this is the base camp of Rubacher in Crossbell." In the back street of Crossbell, Heliga and Fey, who had come with Arios, saw the building from a distance. Unlike most of the historic buildings in the backstreets, the headquarters of "Lubacher" looks completely renovated, and the decorative items and overall decoration are on the ornate side, and it seems that the president Marconi is also a person who likes extravagance.

When Arios finished his morning commission and arrived as scheduled, Faye and Helriga were already impatient and packed their things and prepared to go. Faye misses Garcia who she hasn't seen for many years, while Heliga simply wants to meet this person, after all, they have heard of his name and deeds in the mouths of other hunters back then.

"That's it." Arios stopped in front of an antique shop, "Because of the conflict at work, those watchdogs won't be nice to me." You two go in on yourselves, as for what to say...... Well, you've got a plan anyway. If the situation is not right, remember to come out in time. ”

"No problem." Heliga touched the family emblem that symbolized the nobility of the empire in his arms, "Let's go, Fei." ”

"Stop, what are you doing?" Sure enough, as soon as they walked to the door, two mafia members who looked like they were smoking cigarettes and looking at the door.

"Hello, we have something to talk to Mr. Garcia." After thinking about it, Heiliga decided to get straight to the point.

"Hah...... You little ghosts? Looking for a vice president? Go and go, play while we don't have time to waste with you. With a shrill sneer, the mafia member of the guard continued, "Even if we let you in, I'm afraid you'll be scared of the other people inside to pee your pants before you see the vice president, haha." ”

"yes...... But this kind of imp, this kind of unscrupulous guts...... Well, it's kind of like those pretentious guerrillas, right? Another janitor scoffed.

"yes...... Isn't it the style of guerrillas to send useless imps to death incessantly? ”

After saying that, the two laughed together, not taking Haliga and Faye seriously at all.

"......" Helliga and Faye glanced at each other, and saw a helpless look in each other's eyes.

"Alright, little ghost, let's go." After laughing enough, the janitor waved his hand and motioned for the two to leave.

"That...... I do need to meet with your Vice President. I don't think he would have refused. In this case, Fei took a step forward and looked firm, "Please, please give him the name of Fei Clausell." ”

“…… What's the name...... Haven't heard of ......."

"I'm a little familiar......" The other janitor scratched his head, and the gaze at the two of them was no longer playful, "Clauser, the vice president seems to have mentioned it to the president when he was drinking......

"Hmm...... It's a little bit of a thing. Seeing this, Heiliga took out a few large-denomination Mira and stuffed them into his hand with a smile, "If it's just a report, there shouldn't be any problem, right?" Please. ”

"This ...... You wait, I'll go to the vice president. At the sight of those bills, the janitor suddenly showed a greedy gaze, and his attitude became much more friendly.

"That's it. Sure enough, there is no such thing as money and injustice. Watching the janitor hurry upstairs, Helriga said with satisfaction.

After a while, there was the sound of eager footsteps in the house. Returning with the janitor was a muscular man with some anxiety in his eyes. He was dressed in a suit that had been stretched out by strong muscles, his tan hair was neatly combed back of his head, and several shocking scars on his face showed that this was a man with a story. However, what was extremely incongruous compared to this vicious appearance was his very gentle, even somewhat doting-like eyes, when he saw the short-haired girl at the door.

“…… Garcia. Great, you still haven't changed. Seeing the man in front of him and the figure in his mind gradually overlapping, Fei showed a happy smile.

"Hehe, Fei, you've grown up a lot, in all senses." Garcia spoke softly and patted the top of Fei's head. Seeing that the vice president, who has always been known for his ferocity, and even has a nickname like "Killing Bear", showed such a harmless expression and behaved so gently, the mafia members who were watching said that their eyes were frightened.

"I see...... The head of the regiment ...... "Hearing the story of Lujia and Badr, the leader of the "Red Constellation", who had a death match and finally both died in battle, Garcia sighed deeply and said in a regretful tone: "Captain he...... I guess I'm still very happy...... That bastard...... Although I already know the story...... But the details are ...... Alas, in short, thank you for your hard work, Fei. ”

"Hehe, it's okay. Although for some reason, everyone left me after the duel......" Fei's tone was mixed with sadness and strength, "but at least, I'm trying to find my own answer now." ”

“…… You've really grown, Fei. Garcia sighed, then made a joke, "Speaking of which...... I remember when I was going to teach you my smug skills, the regimental commander and Leo were very much against it, and even tried to beat me. But now they can't take care of it, do you want to ......?"

"I refuse." Fei glanced at Garcia, "I can't be like you." ”

“…… Muscled ...... Oh, no wonder the regimental commander wants to kill you. "Heiliga imagined a little in his heart, tsk, accept that he can't.

"So ...... What's next for you? Garcia mused, "Do you want to stay here for a while?" Although I, the vice president, don't have much real power, there's nothing wrong with arranging a place for you to live. But don't come to Rubacher to do things, that's not for you. ”

"Then you ......"

"I'm an adult and I know what I'm doing and what the consequences are...... But Fei, even now, you are only thirteen years old when you have matured a lot...... It's too early. ”

"Don't worry, Garcia." Fei said in a friendly manner, "I just heard that you were here, so I came to see you...... It's great that you haven't changed much...... The next words, hmm...... I want to go home with him......"

"Huh?" Garcia's keen-eyed stupid dad radar suddenly came into play, and captured the strange atmosphere in the air, "Speaking of which, the ...... next to you Well, I don't seem to know much about it, do I? ”

“…… My name is Helica, and I met Faye at Zephyr. ”
