【(1)】At this time, even the mice are asleep.

Late at night.

At this time, even the rats slept.

However, there were still people moving around the campus - very light figures, and they were fast, jumping quickly into the trees by the lake and vanishing.

Well concealed - it can be seen that it was premeditated.

This person is Jolina.

In the bushes, Jolina looked around, the light in her eyes flickering slightly, her steps slowed as slowly as possible, barely making a sound, but moving fast - such an operation in the warhead is a model of the kind of performance that would be caught.

But Jolina thinks she's just a "cute theory student".

INTERVIEWER What cute theory student would run to the lake without sleep in the middle of the night?

"Tsk. Eventually, Jolina found the bushes she had found at the beginning and crouched down - she had very strong night vision, and from here she could see the lake not far away.

The moon was covered with foggy clouds, and there was not a single ray of light, and the lake was overcast and heavy, without waves.

The lake is located northeast of Amlimont College and is the only lake.

Hardly anyone comes to this place in the middle of the night.

Jolina took a deep breath and exhaled it before she stood up in the bushes—her red hair was coiled behind her head, she was dressed in a light outfit, her fingers unconsciously flicking the leaves on the bushes, making it make a small soft crumble—her eyes were unpredictable, deep—as if she were going to fight (no).

"Huh?" was about to walk forward, but Jolina suddenly noticed another figure by the lake.

Could it be last night...... Or someone who came here on purpose to look for something......

Still is...... Fool running and training at night?The corners of Jolina's mouth twitched, because she did feel that the figure was ...... Jogging.

Running by the lake in the middle of the night? a strange reason that even Jolina couldn't laugh at......

But...... Damn, she's been preparing for a long time!

Jolina thought to herself that she wanted to see who this person really was, so that she could give someone a stumbling block or something, but when she looked at it, she almost exclaimed.

A dark-haired teenager came running from a distance—the movements didn't look as sneaky as Jolina's, and even had a hint of brightness—though who knew what that kind of brightness would mean in the middle of the night.

Importantly, this person is Akta;

What's more......

Under Jolina's watchful eye, Akta leaped into the lake——!

【(2)】Do you want to give this little girl candy?

Little Shota Akta thinks back to sending the little girl home that day - in fact, it was not done very well, because she was missing, close to the city.

But after the incident, he barely had time to think about this strange thing - every day, there are many things to be busy.

Union City is a place where multiple races live together, and it has a more "urban" connotation than other areas - like Wenger, the boulder was "lifted" by powerful magicians and used as a foundation, and finally fortified by casting and suspended by alchemy - becoming a floating city that can hold tens of thousands of people.

It's like Anlimond College, which has a lot of ethnicity, but the city is much more than the college society – the variety of people who come and go is much more complex than the students.

And here, there are many nobles who live in the light, and there are many commoners who live in narrow civilian areas, and Akta is one of them, and he is also the kind of person who has been in charge since he was a child, and needs to get up early in the morning to be busy with his family's life.

In such a situation, he actually had no time to care about the little girl who suddenly disappeared.

"Morning, Aketa, are you working at the port this morning?" Early in the morning, the vegetable seller saw him coming out of the alley house and greeted him.

"Morning—uncle. Well, I'll go first...... Hey, wait," the little black wolf shook his ears, and the calmness on his face was the same as that of a hair ten years later, "Did you see the girl I mentioned earlier today?"

"Oh, that's what you said about the ......" Everyone who lives around here knows that this little black wolf has not forgotten to ask a little girl these days.

"Oh, what are you doing with that girl?" Akta was stunned and watched in surprise as a little girl with red ears poked her head out of the way, "Are you going to bring her candy?"

【(3)】As stupid as before

Damn it...... Idiot!

When Jolina saw that scene, she immediately ran out of the bushes, not caring whether she would be found or not.

Found...... So what? Anyway......

specially prepared swimming skills, bathing;

Specially selected time, bathing +1;

specially hid his purpose or something, soak in the soup +2;

Specially conceal these guys, and soak in the soup +3.

Hmph - well done.

Jolina gritted her teeth, and in her heart, it was not so much about spitting on Aktar as it was about spitting on herself, it was really ...... As stupid as ever.

[(4)] Fishing in the water

It seems that Jolina was shocked and at the same time could still find some time to complain - she didn't seem to care too much.

But she was complaining in her heart, but her body rushed to the lake very upright - standing by the lake looked very anxious.

......

"They did see someone at the lake last night. ”

"Someone else saw you stealing the necklace and then showing up at the lake. ”

"Why are you at the lake?"

"It's not you, but it's hard to explain—"

"Token necklaces are very important to nobles, and if you can't find them tomorrow, you may have to contact Galiet's family. ”

Jolina's mind flashed through today's conversation with Tetina and felt like it was a mess.

She ...... last night

It was true that I went back very late and came to the lake.

At the edge of the lake, I saw a figure - I threw something into the lake.

She wasn't sure.

But the fool suddenly ......

"Akta——!" couldn't hold back any longer, Jolina shouted, her cheeks and her hands clenched into fists.

Whoa——!

Suddenly, Jolina saw Aktar poke her head out of the water—only to see the splash on his cheeks, and soon plunged headlong into the water again.

"...... thought the guy had heard......

How did he know about the lake? Jolina looked around with questions, wondering if she should jump with her.

That guy's motor nerves aren't very good......

"Damn......" Jolina frowned, and just as she wanted to speak again, there was another "whoa!" sound.

Aktar poked her head out and breathed heavily, raising her hand unconsciously.

What he has in his hands......

Jolina felt a little incredible—what he had in his hand was......

Token necklace?

You really fish this thing out of the lake?!

This......

Without thinking much about it, Jolina had already set off and pounced on the lake, stretching out her hand towards Akta: "Hey, Aktar!"

Akta was stunned, looked up, and pinpointed her location.

He looked at Jolina's eyes widening with anxiety—but in those brown eyes, in addition to anxiety, there were bright stars shining in them.
