After answering Kiyosuke's question, the ancient tree fell silent, and even the power of nature coming from his body was much weaker, as if the thought just now had consumed a huge amount of energy.

Kiyosuke squatted in the canopy, lost in thought.

"According to the Ancient Tree, the Facelings are supposed to be looking for... A certain face? Kiyosuke frowned slightly.

Although the ancient tree gave him an answer, it also brought him other doubts, whether this group of facelings were looking for a face, or a group of faces?

"There are so many Facelings, it doesn't seem reasonable if they're just looking for a face." Kiyosuke shook his head, as if something didn't make sense.

After a moment of silence, Kiyosuke gave up thinking, he still had too little information in his hands now, but at least for now, it was certain that the Faceling's target had something to do with the face, or... Something to do with someone?

With a light breath, Kiyosuke leapt from the canopy and walked towards the other ancient trees in the town, hoping to get a more precise answer.

As autumn approaches September, Hokkaido begins to have the taste of autumn, and the temperature in the town is already low to close to single digits in the middle of the night, but Kiyosuke is wearing only a thin sweatshirt.

Half an hour later.

Despite the fact that there are quite a few ancient trees in the town, the results obtained have made Kiyosuke a little disappointed, and not all of them know about the Facelings.

Although ancient trees also have certain thinking skills, most of the time they are in a deep sleep, somewhat similar to the state of hibernation, and basically do not react to the outside world.

So Kiyosuke didn't get much useful information, and the few ancient trees that knew something about the Facelings got the same answers as the initial ones, except for one tree, which made Kiyosuke a little concerned.

The other trees replied with faces, but only it answered Kiyosuke: "Tree." ”

"Trees?" Kiyosuke's brow furrowed, originally thinking that the Facelings were just looking for their faces, but now the situation seems to have become more complicated.

"What does the face have to do with the tree?" Kiyosuke looked down at Furuki, who gave him a different answer, but Furuki didn't respond to his question again.

This tree is the largest in the town, the size of three people hugging each other, and it is at least a few hundred years old, and it may have existed longer than this town, after all, the town is only more than two hundred years old.

Kiyosuke pinched his eyebrows with a little headache, he didn't suspect that this ancient tree was lying to him, after all, his son of nature was hand-picked by the Inari god.

In a way, he can even be said to be the heir of the Inari God now, and the ancient tree has no reason and no way to deceive him.

After exhaling lightly, Kiyosuke gently jumped from the canopy.

"The current intelligence can't be strung together, but it's not without gains, at least the investigation has a direction." Kiyosuke thought to himself and walked silently through the streets of the town.

Before you know it, the time has come to one o'clock in the middle of the night, and even the drunks can hardly be seen on the lonely town streets, only in the only park in the town, there seem to be a few homeless people cowering under the slide.

"Tonight, I got a total of three pieces of information, the first is 'face', the second is 'tree', and third..."

Kiyosuke gently closed his eyes and felt the force of nature in the air, and after noticing the anomaly, as long as he felt it carefully, he could feel that there seemed to be something in the power of nature in the town.

"What the hell is the problem..."Kiyosuke muttered to himself as he opened his eyes, he had already walked around the small town, and still hadn't found the source of the strange aura.

Maybe something isn't quite right with the town itself?

"If the intelligence is not enough, it is still impossible to analyze it in tandem." Seisuke shook his head and decided to give up tonight's investigation and see if there would be any new changes in the town during the day tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Kiyosuke turned around and walked into the side alley, walking down the connected alley towards the team station.

Ten minutes later.

Kiyosuke jumped lightly onto the windowsill on the third floor, opened the window and entered the room.

Seisuke, who returned to the room, was not idle, but opened the terminal and began to check the previous mission logs, although this time the Faceling is different from the past, but it should still have some reference role.

Time flew by, and soon the next day came.

Sunlight crept through the cracks in the curtains into the house, and a loud noise began to be heard in the town.

Not far from the station is the morning market, although it is only six o'clock, but most of the elderly who sleep very lightly have already gotten up.

The noise interrupted Kiyosuke's thoughts, he had been looking at the files in the house all night, and although most of the material was not relevant, Kiyosuke had found a useful and important piece of information in several files.

Over the years, the team has captured many Facelings replicating the scene, but Kiyosuke discovers that not all Facelings will be successfully copied.

In the limited number of dossiers, there have been instances of Facelings failing to replicate passers-by.

"Could it be that there is a limit to the number of copies this Faceling?" Kiyosuke raised his eyebrows, stood up and stretched, and casually opened the curtains to let the sunlight into the room.

Back at the table, Kiyosuke sorted out the information he had so far.

First, the number of Facelings should be around 35

Second, the Faceling is able to replicate all of his team except him.

Third, the Faceling's goals should be related to the 'face' and 'tree'.

Fourth, Facelings are limited in the number or time they can copy. (Doubtful here)

Kiyosuke narrowed his eyes, the fourth point is that he has no evidence to prove it now, but the Faceling's ability must be restricted, but there is no definite example yet.

Half an hour later, there was a knock on Kiyosuke's door.

"Squeak~" After the door opened, Furuta stood outside his door, and he had changed into a suit of clothes, which seemed to be the team's customized combat uniform.

"We're going to start an investigation later, and if there's an emergency, please ask Kiyosuke-kun to help." Furuta bowed deeply.

Kiyosuke's combat power is much higher than him, I'm afraid it can be comparable to the captain of Wakkanai's team, and if there is an emergency, Kiyosuke is undoubtedly the fastest and most suitable person to support.

Kiyosuke shook his head and pulled Furuta into the room: "Guda-kun, I have something to say to you. ”

Furuta was a little surprised, but he didn't resist, but followed Kiyosuke into the room, he was very curious about what Kiyosuke wanted to say, could it be that after a night, Kiyosuke-kun had made new progress?

"Furuta-kun, take a look at this." Kiyosuke handed Furuta the A4 paper with the information listed, and in addition to the information he listed, there were also relevant files of previous cases and some guesses of his own.

Furuta took the information handed by Kiyosuke suspiciously, and looked down.
