Chapter 19: The Black Guide

Cassius ...... Where the hell did he go?" Lugland frowned: "The association won't talk about it, why don't you even contact your family......

"yes, it's not like a teacher's style. Shelazadeh said worriedly: "The flight attendant said that he abruptly withdrew before the scheduled ship took off, and now there is not even a single message." ”

At this time, the door of the association was pushed open: "Excuse me!"

"Ah, it's the receptionist at the airport......" Lugland asked suspiciously, "Is there anything wrong?"

"That's right, the goods and packages that were stolen by the air thieves before have been brought back, and some of them are sent to the guerrilla association, please sign for it. ”

"That's so hard for you...... Wait, how can there be anything sent to our branch on a regular ship from Perth?"

"No, these are letters and packages sent to the Loliente branch. The receptionist shook his head and said, "By the way, may I ask if Cassius Bright's family is here?"

"It's the two of them. Reilly said, pointing to Joshua and Istelle.

"What a coincidence. The people from the Loliente branch said that you came to Perth the other day. The receptionist handed the letter and package to Estelle and said, "Please sign for it." ”

The letter ...... Well, it's Dad's word. ”

"It should have been written before disembarking. Joshua smiled and said, "I see, my father is about to contact us." ”

"It's wonderful. Reilly smiled and said, "That package is also something he sent back, right?"

"It looks like someone sent him...... Uh, that's weird. Estelle looked at the package repeatedly and said, "Why isn't the sender written on it?"

"If you want to read the letter, go to the second floor. Lugland said.

"Thank you, Grandpa Lugland. ”

"Ha-ha-ha, let's take a look at what's inside. Olivier said excitedly.

After everyone took their seats on the second floor of the Guerrilla Guild, Estelle looked at Olivier depressedly and said, "Really...... Why do you want to come along?"

"Oh, I'm interested, too, why did your father get off the boat and send these things over? Olivier stared at the package on the table and said, "I'm too curious to sleep!"

"Even if you say so......"

"Ah~ how can you be so ruthless to your companions who were born and died together......" Olivier sighed and said, "Who is it thanks to the success of infiltrating the air thief base~~~?"

"So it was your idea, I thought Estelle was getting smarter. Reilly smiled and said, "You're a genius." ”

"Mr. Reilly, you have such a vision!" Olivier unceremoniously accepted Reilly's compliment.

"No way......" Joshua shook his head and said, "Don't tell me after reading it!"

"Of course. Olivier agreed without hesitation.

So, Estelle opened Cassius' letter.

"To Esther and Joshua:

You may miss some details at first, but as you continue to gain experience, you will get better and better.

I'm in a bit of trouble here and can't go home anytime soon...... I'm sorry, but you're getting old enough to take your dad with you. Until I return, your life will be up to you. Sixteen years old is the harvest season, I hope you can live a fulfilling life.

Okay, that's it. Don't forget to say hello to Reilly, Aina, and Shellazade for me.

- Cassius Bright"

"Sure enough, it's the teacher's style. Sherazadeh smiled and said, "Although the tone is very casual, it is full of longing." ”

"Hmmm......"

"yes......"

Estelle and Joshua nodded.

"Speaking of which, what's in this package?" Olivier looked at the package on the table again, and said, "It's really intriguing that the sender didn't even write it." ”

"Haha, it's really a lot of concern. Estelle smiled wryly and said, "However, we can't just touch Dad's things......"

"When your father went missing, you received a package from an unknown sender......" Olivier smiled and said, "Could there be any connection between the two things?"

"If you can look at the contents of the package, you might be able to guess where Cassius's predecessor is!" Reilly began to help.

"Hmm...... That's ......," Estelle hesitated.

"Hey~Hey...... You two, how can you make so many excuses to encourage others in order to satisfy your curiosity!" Shellazade sighed and said.

"No, I think Mr. Reilly and Olivier have a point. Joshua disagreed: "It's better to open this package and take a look." ”

Joshua's words were the straw that broke the camel's back.

Estelle took a deep breath and said, "So, open it and take a look." ”

When the package was unwrapped, a pitch-black hemispherical device was revealed.

"Thisβ€”this is ......," Steele's mouth opened in surprise.

(Gospel!)

A glint flashed in Reilly's eyes.

"Although the purpose is not clear, this should be a power guide. Joshua said with a solemn face.

Reilly saw a note in the package, picked it up, and said, "This is an item from that group, please keep it for the time being." If I have the chance, I hope to send it to Dr. R for analysis.

――K”

"That'sβ€”that's all?" said Estelle, disappointed.

"Well, there's nothing else. Joshua shook his head and said, "Mr. Reilly, who do you think Dr. R and K are up there?"

"I don't know. Reilly shook his head and said, "Cassius's predecessors are very well-connected, and I don't know who these two are. ”

"It's really confusing to have just such a hint. Estelle picked up the black force guide and said, "What's the use of this?"

"It feels a bit like a tactical guide...... Sherazadeh said with a frown.

"Probably not. Olivier shook his head and said, "Most tactical force guides will have several holes dedicated to inlaying crystallization circuits, but this one does not have them. ”

"I think this thing should be used in conjunction with some devices. Reilly flipped the black force guide over and said, "Otherwise, there would be no need to make the bottom so flat." ”

"Makes sense......"

"Ah~ I can't stand it, that messy dad!" Estelle slapped the table hard and said, "Oh yes!

"Ai, Estil?!" Joshua was startled.

"I actually sent this strange thing from an unknown sender...... What kind of incident is Daddy involved in?" the girl said worriedly.

Joshua was silent for a moment and said, "Estelle, let's continue our journey!"

"Huh?"

"Aim for a regular guerrilla and embark on a spiritual journey around the kingdom!" Joshua took out two letters from his bosom and said, "We have received letters of recommendation from the Lorente branch and the Parsons branch, followed by Luan, Chase, and Grantell. If you travel while working, where can you find your father?"

"Actually, I don't think your worries are warranted. Reilly shrugged his shoulders and said, "With the strength of Cassius's predecessors, the world is as big as it can be. ”

"What's more, if we grow during this time, Dad will be happy when he comes back. Joshua said.

Estelle suddenly jumped out of her chair, patted Joshua on the shoulder, and said, "You're such a genius!"

"Ai, Estelle?"

"That's a great way to kill multiple birds with one stone!" said Estelle excitedly, "I can't wait to go!"

"So, do you agree with me?" asked Joshua.

"Yes, yes, very much!" said Estelle with a smile, "While doing guerrilla training, I traveled around the country, and by the way, I investigated what that bad middle-aged man was doing!"

"Recovered her spirits so quickly, she really deserves to be the daughter of Cassius's predecessors. Reilly said with a smile.
