Turn the clock counterclockwise and return the time to the previous night.

The night of the fire.

Leonay returned to the base with his tired body, pushed open the door and saw that Brand had returned, but noticed that he was embarrassed.

So did Main and Lubbock, who stood beside him.

“Everyone…”

“Finally back, Leonay.”

Najeshitan let out a long sigh of relief when she saw Leonay enter the door

“Why did you come back so late and encounter the enemy?”

“When I encountered a difficult opponent, I delayed for a while.”

Leonay casually made up a lie and turned his gaze back to Brand and the others

“What happened?”

“The mission failed, and the [Imperial Envoy] sent by the headquarters should have been defeated or even killed by the target.”

Najestan’s expression was serious, and a cold light reflected on the right arm of the machine

“Fortunately in misfortune, at least we [night attack] did not attrition.”

“Sorry, boss, it was my first time that the information was wrong.”

Brand lowered his head and could see that even with the protection of [Devil Haunted], there were many wounds on his body

“We completely misjudged each other’s strength.”

“It’s not your fault, Brand, you don’t have to blame yourself too much.”

As the captain of the [Night Raid], Najeshitan did not mean to blame his subordinates

“Tell me about what happened next.”

“Well, Lin Ze suddenly appeared in front of me and blocked the attack of [Devil Haunted] with his bare hands, and my weapon was also damaged during the battle. His hands turned rocky and attacked me so fast that I didn’t have time to dodge. If it hadn’t been for Lubbock’s silk thread wrapped around him and stopped his fist, I might have been… ”

“Nope!”

Lubbock’s sudden denial interrupted Brand’s words, and everyone’s eyes shifted to him

“Although I hate to admit it… However, I simply did not have the ability to stop his fist, and my [Crossed Tail] was no different from ordinary silk thread in front of him – he stopped on his own initiative. ”

“What do you mean? Lin Ze had no intention of killing Brand. ”

BOSS’s brow furrowed.

“That’s right, and he had the ability to easily kill the three of us, but he didn’t do it… And I feel that he is indeed a little different from the rest of the empire… ”

Leonay, who was standing on the side, had a slight change in expression.

“High officials of the empire, no different.”

A cold voice came, and the speaker had pupils as red as flames, long black hair like a waterfall, and a murderous aura under his cold appearance.

Red pupils.

She was not included in this operation by the boss.

Akatomi was originally a killer of the empire, but accepted Naje Tan’s persuasion and chose to join the [Night Attack], but at this time, she had only joined the revolutionary army for a short time, and her bond with other teammates was not deep enough.

“He doesn’t kill you, it just means that you are still useful.”

Lubbock glanced at the red pupils and did not answer.

“Later, because of the fire, Lin Ze left the battlefield and went to the place of the incident.”

Brand’s words broke the awkward silence.

“Fire? Are you guys around there too? ”

Leoney looked at the others suspiciously.

“It’s not just around there, the fire was caused by Ma Yin!”

With a wicked smile on his lips, Lubbock lightly bumped Ma Yin’s shoulder with his elbow.

“Obviously you hit me!”

Ma Yin stomped her foot excitedly

“In addition, we judge that Lin Ze has the ability to rebound damage, and the more violent the attack received, the greater the damage of the rebound.”

Lubbock rolled up his sleeves and showed off the wounds on his body.

“You mean… Did you cause this fire? ”

Leonay’s jaw trembled slightly, his teeth collided lightly, and his body trembled slightly.

“That’s right, thanks to this fire, we were able to escape from Lin Ze’s claws, and the police and soldiers of the imperial capital were also attracted over, which facilitated our retreat.”

Lubbock was a little proud.

“Do you know how many people will be killed by covering up such an act?”

Leonay’s pupils narrowed, her teeth gradually sharpened, anger was written directly on her face, and a beastly roar came out from deep in her throat.

She grew up in the slums of the imperial capital since she was a child, and she knew that the people’s lives were hot, and this fire might burn up what countless people had accumulated after working hard for years, decades, or even a lifetime

– Moreover, the slum where she grew up is located inside the burning residential area.

“Hey! We’re trying to survive. ”

Lubbock, who has lived in a wealthy family since he was a child, cannot understand Leonai’s anger at all, and the fundamental reason why he joined [Night Raid] is not how much he hates the empire, but because of the existence of the boss Najehitan. At this time, he took two steps back, spread his hands to his chest, and turned to look at Brand.

“Brand, you’re Big Brother, help me talk.”

He found that Brand also kept his head down and did not squeak.

Ma Yin, who has always been proud, bit her lip, and her mood became particularly complicated after hearing Leonai’s words.

Icy silence shrouded the space.

“Leonay!”

Najahitan’s face was expressionless, but there was already a reprimand in her tone.

She didn’t want infighting in the squad.

“I quit and quit.”

Leonai unfastened her belt and threw her imperial tool [Hundred Beast King] on the ground.

The belt hit the ground and made a sound, like a lion crying.

A fire had been lit between several of them.
