The journey of a heroine starting from the Dragon Clan

The CC1000 branch line express is running in the summer wilderness. Looking out the window, under the washed blue sky, the vegetation changes from dark green to golden and then to reddish brown, like a rainbow.

Sitting next to the window, the head of the investigation team, Patsy Gattuso, calmly admired the magnificent scenery outside the window, with no sadness or joy on his face.

This time, he will once again visit Kassel secretly on behalf of the school board, and learn the secret about the Keel Cross. Frost had specifically told him before he left.

In the last meeting, Angers' behavior was quite weird. Given the other party's character, he should have taken out a folding knife and stuck it on the table and sneered, rather than compromise with them in such a way.

Because of this weird response, for a while, they couldn't figure out Angers' way at all, which made all the follow-up plans of the Gattuso family come to nothing.

This is like two parties playing rock, paper, scissors. They have guessed in advance what the other party will do next, and have made corresponding preparations in advance. However, when the two parties punch, the other party suddenly I compared OK to them...

Angers didn't play according to the routine at all, and his sudden show of weakness caught them off guard.

The Dragon Bone Cross should be real, Angers would not be stupid enough to lie about such a thing, so the goal of his trip was not just for the Dragon Bone Cross, but the secret that Angers tried his best to hide behind it.

A few months ago, he almost got the secret, but in the end he was tricked by that shameless guy in Angers. If the Gattuso family hadn't urgently used the authority of the school director to block those photos, his nude photos would probably have been exposed. It's been uploaded all over the Night Watch forum.

When thinking about the encounter a few months ago, Percy felt his head aching, but this time Angers stayed at Portofino. In theory, without the elusive Time Zero, he could The first time in the college should be unimpeded.

……perhaps?

The only person who needs to worry is the vigilante, the vice-principal of the college.

After a moment of pondering, Patsy took out a document from the suitcase beside him, opened it, and then carefully took out a photo from it.

Printed on the photo is an extremely handsome man with a sculpture-like handsome face, a tall Greek nose, slender curly hair that is somewhere between a libertine and a rock youth, and a pair of coquettish eyes. The charming look between young women and old ladies... If I could sum it up in one word, it would be handsome and charming.

Nicholas Flamel, the greatest alchemist in the world, the huge alchemical matrix in the ice cave was created by him. The photo in his hand was taken in Bolivia in 1934, more than 80 years ago.

It's not that he doesn't want to get the other party's recent photos, it's mainly because there is very little information about the Night Watch. The other party has been living in seclusion in Kassel College for decades. He has always lived in seclusion. Few people can see the other party, so he can only get it. This photo is for reference.

On the premise that Angers was not in the college, this time he went to Kassel to investigate Keel Cross. The receptionist there was the other party. After learning the news, the number of people who signed up to participate in this investigation team suddenly increased sharply.

After all, as a living legend and the world's number one alchemist, the Night Watchman is very popular among alchemists. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is an idol in the hearts of those people.

...This kind of person is not easy to deal with.

After letting out a breath, Patsy put the photo back into the document bag.

In fact, he didn't want to believe that Angers betrayed mankind, but the evidence was simply irrefutable, especially what happened in those nursing homes. As long as Angers couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation for this, this matter would It never ends.

As the arrival whistle sounded, Patsy stood up with her suitcase in hand after packing up her documents and adjusting her clothes in front of the mirror.

He was not the only one coming this time, but there were also several alchemists from other families. According to the itinerary, they would enter the ice cave under the leadership of the night watchman, and then face Norton's Dragon Bone Cross.

In the process, by using the efforts of those alchemists to hold back the night watchman, he will use Norma's authority to conduct a detailed search in Kassel College until he finds out the secret that Angers wants to hide.

The plan has been drawn up, everything just needs to go according to plan.

...But he never expected that his plan would go astray from the very beginning.

Unlike the solemn welcome scene he imagined, after he walked out of the carriage with others, he was greeted by warm cheers.

The scene was full of roaring gongs and drums, blasting firecrackers, waving red flags, and a sea of ​​people...

Before he could react, he gave a sloppy middle-aged man wearing a bright red Hawaiian shirt and plastic-framed sunglasses a warm hug. The man slapped his back hard, as if to relieve his cough, which was thick and heavy. The smell of alcohol made him dizzy and messed up the clothes he had arranged before getting off the car.

He finally broke free from the uncle's arms, but before Patsy could say anything, a beautiful girl appeared from the side and put a Hawaiian-style lei on him. The flashlight next to him was so loud that he couldn't open his eyes.

Just like that, in a daze, he and others were surrounded by the crowd and stumbled onto the red and green float.

Hundreds of boys and girls held up their bouquets and surrounded the float. The float was moving slowly, with a roar of people, balloons and ribbons flying in the air, and the faint sound of champagne being opened. It seemed that everyone was very happy with the visit of the investigation team. , vowing to turn this investigation into a grand garden party of the college, and there was a faint atmosphere of joy in the air.

"How about it? The students are in good spirits, right?"

He sat down beside him unceremoniously, and the middle-aged man patted his shoulder enthusiastically.

"I heard that you are coming. We have been rehearsing since yesterday. Everyone is very happy. I just want to give you the most perfect experience. How about it? Do you feel like you are home?"

"……Night watchman?"

Looking at the uncle in front of him, Pasila was a little unsure.

"No way, it's just a false name. You're welcome. Just call me the vice principal."

While nodding humbly, the uncle in front of him winked at him.

"You guys came here at the right time. Today happens to be the finals of [Academy Star]. I helped you get some votes from the judges. You will probably be in for a treat this time. You're welcome, these are all what I should do. of."

Patsy: “…”

... He admitted that his guess was wrong again.

Those who are close to vermillion are red, and those who are close to ink are black. The Night Watchman and Ange have been hanging out with each other for so long, and it seems that the two have long been colluding.

And... time is indeed a butcher's knife.

ps: Good morning (づ●─●)づ

There will be another update later, probably later, around two o'clock.
