Steel steam and flame

Cassia herself doesn’t need to say much, it’s just what it should be. There are no shortage of questions and thoughts in his heart, but they are all covered tightly by the seriousness fixed on his face, leaving no gaps.

However, in four days, and today is only the fifth day, a series of completely unexpected things made the six people sitting opposite each other feel hugely uncomfortable. Since the gathering, no one has spoken except for necessary information. As if they were discussing it, the six of them pursed their lips tightly, like children who would be taught a lesson if they opened their mouths. The only thing on their faces was that these things have nothing to do with me, I am definitely an innocent victim.

Cassia can't figure it out now and is full of confusion. The return trip has been planned by Delya and Waters, and the identities and all the tickets have been ordered. All that is left is for Cassia to take the luggage and backpack, then walk out of the house and embark on this lonely journey according to the established process. journey. In fact, Cassia even bought the books she wanted to read on the trip and kept them in her house.

However,...the perception was like a spider web with a huge hole in front of Adolf and Trevikan. It was not until the two knocked on the door of their own house that Cassia realized that after the two obtained their address from the organization, they came in person. Looking for myself.

The first thought must be that he has been completely exposed, whether it is his identity or the idea of ​​​​sneaking back alone. But two days ago, Adolf and Trevikan entered his house, and Cassia was deeply impressed by their expressions and eyes at that time.

Far more helpless and melancholy than now, his face was full of sorrow, and even bitter water would ooze from it. The two came in and sat at the table in the living room. They took turns looking up at Cassia, and then took turns sighing, full of unspeakable pain.

Cassia did not dare to ask anything, nor did she try to test anything. Because there was no wine in the house, Cassia had to boil her own hot water and pour a glass for both of them. By the time they left the house, the hot water had gone cold. They picked up the cups several times but did not take a sip.

He sat here for several hours, most of which was spent taking turns sighing. The rest was spent telling Cassia that for some reason, he needed to leave Larsa in the next period of time. A long journey to the interior of the Saint Dorag Empire.

"Do you still remember the gathering that Miss Tavel mentioned? That's roughly what happened. Miss Tavel brought together many elites from other families this time. When the time comes, you have to get to know them. You are with us too. Over a period of time, I have taught you a lot of things. Although you have not learned them well, it is enough. It is still good for you to see the gap between you and others."

Only Te Li Weikang said the purpose of the two of them coming here before leaving, his voice was as low as if he hadn't eaten for a long time.

It was these few words that made Cassia almost overturn all his conjectures that night. But fortunately in the final stage, maybe it was because the detailed analysis not long ago really worked, or maybe it was a vague intuition pulling me in the dark. In short, after meeting Trivikan and Adolf, they believed that this incident did not originate from Torvillest. The whole incident was carefully planned by Miss Tavel and the organization. This idea was kept in Cassia's mind.

Various current phenomena, as well as the subsequent information from Hessler, show that the so-called Miss Tavel and the organization do not play as large a role in this matter as Cassia imagined. There is an accident.

"It's just that after Miss Tavel and the organization office got the same news as me, they realized that this was a good opportunity to use my identity, so they made a temporary decision to let me go?" This is different from what Cassia thought before about Tavel and another person. It goes against the idea that the top leaders of the organization actually know their true identity. Cassia didn't speak after getting on the train, precisely because her entire head was occupied by Tavel, the organization, and Tovilest.

Once the information is intertwined into a network, it will be extremely troublesome to separate them clearly again. Who is the leader or promoter of this incident? Cassia's speculation on these identities has become confusing. Not long after, the clanging sound of the train pulled Cassia out of her thoughts and back to the reality in front of her.

Raising her head, she met Isa's eyes, and Cassia read the doubts and concerns in them. I could only thank Isa in my heart for not telling anyone about the fact that I had to leave for a while under the pretext of having a special mission a few days ago. Judging from the way Trevikan and Adolf looked when they came to find her, Isa probably said that she was resting in the house.

But why did Isa follow this time and become one of the people who went to the empire? The trade cooperation with Korkwa should be handed over to the four new lieutenants, so there is no need to worry about losing contact with him. Cassia is very aware of Isa's strength. In the three stages, it can only barely reach the upper level. Compared with the elites, there are some gaps in strength, experience, and brains. Now that the organization has obtained information from within the empire, it should know that even the worst participants in this incident will be some of the elites in the family. Not to mention the knights and attendants, the team of pure surgeons with sophisticated equipment and training, this alone is enough to create a huge deterrent.

Unexpectedly, what kind of position Isha would have in the team, Cassia thought for a while and then gave up decisively. She just reminded herself that if there is a chance, she should protect Isha as much as possible and prevent her from getting close to danger. But Cassia was actually worried about one thing, and that was her own situation.

After returning to the empire like this, the chance of returning to Larsa later is extremely slim. It is probably gone. He didn't feel that his situation was very optimistic.

Cassia looked out the window for a while. The scenery seemed to be moving very fast. With his dynamic vision, he would have no problem catching the fine hairs on some grass. From time to time, attention is focused on the two people next to Isa, both of whom are new faces and have unknown strengths for the time being. The organization temporarily dispatched people from Larsa and its surrounding areas. Judging from their auras alone, both of them are at least one of the main leaders in each region of the organization, but they have not entered the fourth stage. They are probably elite-level figures.

I believe that if the organization takes a fancy to this opportunity, the deployment of personnel will not be so short. Due to the structural characteristics of the organization, other personnel should be on their way to the gathering place at this moment, just like me now.

Thinking of this, Cassia let out a breath, leaned on the hard seat, closed her eyes and rested.

The train drove on unchanged, making clanging noises from time to time. Departing from Larsa in the morning, we were still in Larsa in the evening. In the early hours of the morning, the train finally arrived at the border area of ​​Larsa Country, which is the closest to Devilves City.

There, the harsh sound of the train's emergency braking and the sparks splashing out the window to both sides like spring water woke up Cassia and the other six who were resting.
