Char returned to his room, immediately took out the old bracelet from the drawer, and entered his personal space consciously, touching the cold door to the Shadow Street with his palm.

He was in a bad state today, not because he didn't sleep well, but because he was worried about the safety of the Scarlet Witch.

Jingle bells...

A crisp wind chime sounded, and a white-hatted and white-robed hermit appeared in the wizard's bar.

Merlin, the gray-robed wizard, sat alone at the wine table, looking dejected, and poured wine into his mouth.

Seeing Merlin's appearance, Char's heart sank, and the ominous premonition became even stronger.

Char slowly walked to the wine table and sat down across from Merlin without speaking.

Merlin drank all the wine in the wine glass in one gulp, his eyes were gloomy, and he lowered his head and said, "Lord Hermit... Don't wait any longer. I've received word that B-Class Agent Lance has successfully completed his mission, and the hacker Scarlet Witch has been burned to death, and her body has been reduced to a charred corpse. Much of the data on the computer was destroyed, but after data recovery, it was determined that the deceased was the Red Witch herself. ”

Although Char expected this to be the result, when he heard Merlin tell the bad news, his body was shocked, and his heart was extremely sad, and tears almost flowed out.

Char knew that this sadness was not the sadness of the rabbit's death and the fox's death, but the expression of his true feelings after his friend's death.

"Merlin..."

Char snapped his fingers, and three glasses of the wizard's bar's best gin appeared on the table.

Gin, also known as gin, was a drink offered to the gods by shamans in the distant Second Age.

"To the Scarlet Witch... Our forever friend. ”

Char held up the colorless and transparent gin and whispered.

"To the Scarlet Witch..."

Merlin was an emotional man, and tears were pouring down her eyes when she picked up her glass.

Char and Merlin raised two glasses of gin and drank them up.

For the third glass of wine, Char poured over the position of the Red Witch.

"Friend, go all the way."

Char muttered, disconnected, and left the Wizard's Bar, returning to reality.

"The Red Witch... Aren't you going to hunt me? How..."

Char opened the fridge and took out a bottle of whiskey.

Char knew that drinking was not a good habit, but the grief in his heart could not be suppressed, so he could only let alcohol anesthetize himself.

Goo-doo...

Char tilted his head and poured half a bottle of whiskey into his stomach, the liquor burning his mouth and esophagus like fire.

His head was a little dizzy, and he sat in a chair, his eyes staring at the beautiful view of the sea from the holographic floor-to-ceiling windows.

At this very moment...

The view from the floor-to-ceiling windows suddenly changes to a wizard's bar.

The bar is dimly lit and an old-fashioned record player plays soothing old songs in the corner.

The graceful Red Witch sat at the wine table as always, her slender legs folded together, her right hand shaking a glass of red wine, her red lips lightly opened, and she smiled: "Hermit, I caught you!" We won our bet! ”

"The Red Witch!"

Seeing the scene in front of him, Char suddenly jumped up from his chair.

"Hallucinations?"

Char rubbed his eyes, as a dream builder, distinguishing between reality and illusion is the most basic ability!

Char is sure that this is not an illusion.

Although Char drank some wine, he was not so drunk that he mistook the bay scene of the holographic floor-to-ceiling window for the Red Witch!

"Hackers! Someone hacked into my smart room system and changed the sight of the floor-to-ceiling windows to the Red Witch! Who is it? Char thought of a possibility, a chill poured out from the depths of his bone marrow, and he shivered, and most of the wine suddenly woke up.

Merlin said the Red Witch was dead. And the agent on dispatch is Lance, the nightmare spreader! Lance is an extremely terrifying person, and he will never miss! So... Who is disguised as a Red Witch to find out who I really am! ”

Char's mind raced, speculating on all possibilities.

The greatest possibility is the Federation.

The Federation cracked the Scarlet Witch's computer, recovered the data inside, found his identity through the clues, and suddenly tempted?

Yes, it must be the Federation!

The Federation has no evidence that I am a hermit, and I am the dream builder of the Oneiroi Group, so they can only be tempted.

Char quickly calmed down, looked at the red witch in the floor-to-ceiling window, and said in surprise, "Who are you?" What hermit? I don't understand what you're talking about! ”

The Red Witch's brows frowned slightly, but she quickly understood that Char was acting, and smiled coquettishly: "He is worthy of being a hermit, and his acting skills are first-class." I've been watching you for so long, and I haven't found any flaws. Don't worry, I'm not a federal agent. I'm the Scarlet Witch, and I have no ill will towards you. ”

"The Scarlet Witch..."

Char looked suspicious, but still refused to believe it.

"Remember this page of the diary?"

The Red Witch gently shook the glass, and the red wine inside flew out and turned into a picture.

This picture is a page of Kakule's diary. The Scarlet Witch gave Char the page of her diary in thanks.

"You're really the Scarlet Witch..."

Char's body shook.

What happens in Shadow Street is encrypted, and no one knows about it except the Scarlet Witch.

Even if the Federation had recovered the data on the Scarlet Witch's computer, they would not have known that the Scarlet Witch had given a page of Kakule's diary to the hermit.

In other words, the image that appeared in front of Char by invading the smart room system was indeed the Red Witch!

The question is...

Merlin was convinced that the Scarlet Witch was dead.

It's a federal secret, and you can't go wrong.

Could it be that the Red Witch had already discovered the danger and set up a situation to escape, and it was not she who was buried in the fire?

However, even if the other party is a red witch.

Why did she suddenly find out that she was a hermit?

Doubts appeared in Char's mind, making him completely confused about the situation.

"As far as I know... The Scarlet Witch is dead. ”

Char lowered her voice and said cautiously.

"I'm dead? It's ridiculous! If I died, what would I be now? What am I... What is it..."

Hearing Char's words, the Red Witch first laughed coquettishly, her eyes sarcastic.

Her smile and smile were all the appearance of the Red Witch, giving Char an extremely familiar feeling.

But when she talked about what she was.

Her beautiful face was suddenly full of confusion, and then the picture seemed to be stuck, repeating repeated:

"What am I..."

"What am I..."

"What am I..."

Countless interrogative sentences overlapped and converged into a loud sound like a tsunami, which shook Char's eardrums.

Char covered his ears with both hands, insisted on going to the window, and cut off the power to all the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The screen goes pitch black, and the figure of the Red Witch disappears.

Echoing through the room, the repeated words gradually dissipated!

Char collapsed and sat down in her chair, sweating profusely.

What has just happened is as unreal as an illusion.

However, Char's memories told him that it was true!

"What the hell is going on?"

Char grabbed her messy hair with her hands irritably, feeling like she was going crazy.

That's when ...

The hologram of the Red Witch appeared in front of Char, and said with a solemn expression: "I know, I'm probably dead!" ”
