"What's going on?" Ya Ye asked suspiciously, looking at the door that was closed again.

"Do you still remember the Philosopher's Stone I brought back two days ago?" Ito Cheng lowered his body and sat on the sofa again, looking at Aye leisurely and asked. After seeing Ya Ye nodding, he continued, "The original owner of the stone killed a soldier named Mastius that night, and that soldier was the close friend of Colonel Mustang who just came."

"Then why is he here this time..." Yaye asked, while thinking in his mind.

"Well who knows, it has nothing to do with us anyway." Ito Cheng said with a shrug.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye...

"Are you the National Alchemist His Excellency Ito Cheng?" Ito Cheng, who was searching for information in the large library that day, was suddenly approached by several military policemen with guns. One of the military policemen said to Ito Cheng.

"It's me." Ito Cheng closed the book in his hand, turned to look at the burly white man standing in front of him, and nodded in recognition.

"Now we suspect that you are involved in the death of Brigadier General Mascius. Can you please come with us?" As he said that, the group of military police behind him picked up their weapons one by one, loaded the bullets, and aimed at Ito Cheng's upper body. Crucial. After all, for the national alchemists, ordinary firearms do not pose a threat to them if they are not prepared in advance.

"Show me the order." Ito Cheng put the books in his hands back on the bookshelf and said softly.

"Okay." The leading military policeman nodded, took out a page of paper from his arms and handed it to Ito Cheng's hand.

Ito Cheng reached out and took it, giving it a brief glance. The top is nothing more than what the military police just said. At the bottom is the word "approval for investigation" and the signature of the approver.

"Kim Bradley." Ito Cheng whispered in a voice that no one else could hear, then handed the order in his hand back to the other party and said, "Okay."

"Thank you for your cooperation." The leading military policeman gave a military salute, and then led Ito Cheng out under the gaze of everyone in the library. Although he said that, none of the other military police put down their guns. They still pointed their guns at Ito Cheng with nervous expressions on their faces. \u003cFu, Ito Cheng was coerced by the military police and walked to the office aside.

"The interrogation begins now."

At this time, Ito Cheng sat alone on one side of the table in the office, and two military policemen with guns pointed their guns at Ito Cheng. Three soldiers wearing officer uniforms sat opposite him. One of them conducted the interrogation, another took notes, and the last one supervised the entire process to ensure the correctness of the interrogation.

"Do you know the late Brigadier General Mascius?" the interrogator asked with a majestic look.

"I've met him once, but I can't say I know him." Ito Cheng replied.

"Do you know Major Armstrong?" the interrogator asked.

"It's the same as Masius. We've met him once, but we can't say we know each other." Ito Naomichi

"Where were you on the night of June xri, 1914?"

"Home."

"Is there anyone who can prove it?"

"My girlfriend Aye."

"Where are the other witnesses?"

"No."

"So do you have anything to explain about the content of this photo?" The chief examiner took out a photo from the information bag on the side and threw it in front of Ito Cheng.

Ito Cheng picked up the photo and saw that in the photo, an English word "empty" written in blood appeared on it, and the English word was surrounded by the phone booth where Masius, whom Ito Cheng was familiar with, died.

Seeing this, Ito Cheng frowned, then relaxed, threw the photo back on the table and said, "I don't know what you want to express."

"Your alchemist title seems to be [Kong]." The chief judge said

"That's right." Ito Cheng nodded in agreement, then looked up at the chief judge and said, "Just because my title is [empty], do you think it refers to me? Isn't it ridiculous?"

"That's why we asked you to come here." The chief interrogator said in a deep voice, obviously dissatisfied with Ito Cheng's attitude.

"Ha~" Ito Cheng sneered and said, "Okay, let's continue. What else do you want to ask?"

"Are you sure you were at home on the night of x, xri?" the chief examiner asked again.

"Yes, where should I go if I'm not at home in the middle of the night?" Ito Cheng asked, spreading his hands.

"Okay, that's what we're asking. Of course, you will need to stay in the detention center for a while in the past few days, waiting for the results of our investigation." The chief examiner and the other two officials said as they stood up.

"Then can I make a call?" Ito Cheng frowned.

"No." The presiding judge simply refused.

"Okay." Ito Cheng nodded without forcing it. At this time, a military policeman on the side came over, holding a pair of iron handcuffs in his hand and about to cuff Ito Cheng's hands.

"I said, I am currently under investigation. What do you want to do by using this kind of thing on me now?" Ito said, moving his hands to avoid the military police's extended hand.

"Because you are a national alchemist and a dangerous person, this is a necessary measure." The official who had been silent for a long time explained.

"Ha." Ito Cheng sneered (sarcastic), and allowed the military police on the side to handcuff the handcuffs with wooden boards that could block the clasping of the hands. Under the leadership of the other party, he walked to the prison inside the FU building.

"Bang..." The iron door was closed.

"Kim Bradley, are you planning to create a fact that will completely frame me as a criminal and force me to do it?" In the cell, Ito Cheng's head was slightly lowered, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised on his face that could not see the expression. , whispering softly to himself.

-------------------------------------------------

"Why hasn't Ah Cheng come back yet?" Ya Ye thought worriedly, looking at the completely dark sky outside. Suddenly, Yaye's expression changed. He quickly ran to the side and grabbed the samurai sword placed in the corner. He stared at the window with a wary expression...

At this time, a pair of shining red eyes appeared in the dark night, and then a somewhat round figure broke in through the window from outside!

"I want to eat so much, I want to eat so much, I want to eat so much." Under the light, Gratoni, whose appearance was completely exposed, stuck out his tongue and murmured to himself as he stared at Ya Ye with a mouthful of saliva.

"What kind of monster is this, and this energy..." Yaye looked at Gratoni, who was staggering towards him, and thought to himself.

"I'm going to eat you!" Gratoni shouted, and his body quickly rushed towards Ya Ye.

Yaye concentrated on guarding. When Gratoni rushed over, his body squatted forward and he held the long sword on the left side. His right hand was on the sword's handle, and he slashed out with a fierce Iai...

A bright silver-white crescent moon appeared between Ya Ye and Gratoni, cutting a deep gap in Gratoni's belly.

"It hurts so much." Gratoni lay on the ground and said in a voice like a child. At the same time, red electric light jumped rapidly on his body, healing the wound on his abdomen when he got up.

"This is the Philosopher's Stone." Yaye's pupils shrank, and then he thought of the scene he had seen when he accompanied Ito Cheng to find Gullid.

"You are a human being." Yaye asked.

"Yes." Gratney put his right index finger in his mouth and sucked on it.

"Why did you attack me?" Yaye asked quickly after realizing that the other party answered his question so easily.

"Because Lars said he would take you back." Gratney answered the question like a child.

"Who is Lars?" Yaye continued to ask.

"Las is Lars!" Gratney replied, and then rushed towards Ya Ye again.

Yaye quickly jumped to the side to avoid Glatny's grasp. At the same time, he turned around and slashed at Glatny's back. When the red electric light flashed, he quickly turned around and rushed to Glatny's side. The long knife in his hand was tilted. Cut down.

"At that time, I thought it was so easy for Acheng to kill, but I didn't expect that it would be so troublesome here. But where is Acheng now and why hasn't he come back yet." Yaye was worried while fighting Gratny quickly. Ito Cheng.

After a while, after realizing that he really had no means to kill Gratny in a short time, Yaye stabbed Gratny's head with a fierce knife, and kicked Gratny when he was unresponsive due to treatment. Gratney kicked him away on his big belly, and he immediately jumped out of the window where Gratney had hit him when he broke in.

Just the moment Ya Ye jumped out, five cold lights suddenly rose from the night sky...
