The wind chimes on the side of the road rang softly, and the hustle and bustle on the street became more intense, while she walked past one shop after another, stopping at the door of each shop to watch.

She knew that she would have a new mission tonight, and soon, she would be able to leave this area, return to her own world, and accompany her loved ones.

That feeling is so good...

There was a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she inadvertently clenched her left fist tightly.

Although she has always been a ruthless killer who walks in the darkness, who said that a person in the dark can't yearn for light in his heart?

just that light...

Sighing, Sakura didn't stop and continued to walk forward.

Anyway, with her ability, it's not impossible to occasionally take a look at the city's normal appearance at night when performing tasks, right?

At this moment, Sakura seemed to be a pure girl, walking quietly on the street, looking at this bustling city and all kinds of people walking between the cities.

The long rabbit ears that appeared due to the influence of the super-alteration surgery and the side effects, after Sakura deliberately concealed it, it looked as if she was just wearing a decorative hairpin with rabbit ears.

Therefore, even if Sakura was walking on the street, at most she would attract some passers-by to look at her, and then withdraw their gazes in unison.

Sakura is indeed good-looking, but her eyes are very cold, which is not suitable for others to look at.

Unknowingly, Sakura walked to the most prosperous area of ​​Twilight Street.

On both sides of the street, there are various bars, dance halls and coffee shops, as well as many restaurants and food streets.

This place is where the real liveliness of Twilight Street is!

Came to a cafe, sat by the window, Sakura ordered a cup of tea, and then fell into deep thought alone.

After a while, he raised his eyes and looked outside through the glass window.

The traffic on the street, the flashing neon lights, and the endless streets, coupled with the Western European style of the building, gave Sakura a feeling of being in an exotic style.

She once imagined holding hands with that person on the streets of a foreign country, walking with their relatives, enjoying the bustling and beautiful atmosphere compared to the trance, drinking mellow black tea, and eating delicious pastries.

It's a pity that after she entered the flame moth, too many things happened in these years.

His most important sister had left this world, and he was forced to take her life.

Then he was charged with a crime by the high-level human beings, and for reasons that she could not refute, he was sent to the prison where the heinous sinners were held—the deepest place.

Up to now, neither his last sister Lisha nor his own younger sister Ling had heard the news, and they just naively thought that that guy was going to perform some mission again, to become a human hero again.

Heroes of mankind in the past are sinners of mankind today.

Thinking about it, it's really ridiculous.

What's even more tragic is that Sakura wanted to go over and take a look at him countless times, even if it was just a chance, as long as she could say a few words.

But the higher-ups didn't give her this chance, even though she had been unswervingly carrying out their tasks, she never got such a chance.

Until now, the only one who has been allowed to visit him, apart from Alicia, the captain of the special team who is the strongest in Chaser Moth, should be Kevin, the hero recognized by all mankind and the leader recognized by all fighters.

But... If you really want to talk about a hero, Sakura doesn't think that such a title must be a good thing.

"My lady, here is your coffee."

Coffee was placed on the table suddenly, but Sakura wasn't surprised.

As early as the waiter was approaching her, she heard the footsteps.

"Well, thank you."

After nodding her head, Sakura looked at the cafe as she looked at the departing waiter.

The decoration design of the cafe is relatively simple, without any fancy decorations, except for a few tables and corresponding chairs, and a few floor lamps.

This cafe is probably the most simple one in this bustling street, right?

Sakura pursed her lips and smiled, picked up the coffee cup and tasted it slowly.

"Well."

She squinted her eyes, enjoying this rare warmth and tranquility, and at the same time, someone's voice and smile appeared in her mind.

That was the bosom friend she had kept in her heart, the young man whose emotions were so firm that sometimes she would occasionally fantasize about it.

Even though he has become a sinner, she never thinks about it that way.

Because she really understands a person, she knows that it is impossible for him to become a sinner in the mouth of mankind.

The sincere and pure love for relatives, the flawless and gentle kindness for friends, the care and encouragement for others, such a person is really very good.

I also remembered the time when I was with him, accompanied him and her own sister, went to see the outside world together, went to the amusement park to play, talked about my heart, and was teased by the sisters together.

Although that time was really dull, but thinking about it is extraordinarily warm, just like the atmosphere in the cafe now.

Putting down the coffee cup, she fixed her gaze on the door of the cafe.

She heard footsteps, two footsteps sounded calmer, and the other two footsteps sounded much more cheerful.

It can be judged that there are two children and two adults.

And when the owner of the footsteps stepped into the cafe, it turned out that Sakura's hearing was correct.

A man and a woman looked like lovers, and there were two children by their side.

The man was wearing a black suit with a warm smile on his face; the woman was wearing a light blue dress with a loose shawl and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, looking elegant and generous;

The child is about three years old, wearing pink shorts and a T-shirt with a cartoon pattern, with a bun on his head. He looks very cute. His two big eyes are rolling around. He doesn't know what he is looking at. Much like their parents.

And on the woman's arm was a little girl carved in pink and jade. The little girl was wearing a white tutu skirt with double ponytails, revealing a round and cute little face, with big black eyes wandering around, Full of excitement.

"Dad~! Mom~!"

The corner of the little girl's mouth was slightly raised, revealing a sweet smile.

"Well, sweetie."

The man touched his daughter's little head and smiled dotingly: "Do you like to eat?"

"kindness!"

The little girl nodded immediately, her little face was filled with happiness: "I like it! I want more!"

"Then ask Auntie to help you get two more Haagen-Dazs!"

The man pampered his daughter's head, then looked at the waiter: "Then give me three Haagen-Dazs, thank you."

"OK, just a second."

Seeing the harmonious atmosphere of the four of them, Sakura was stunned for a moment.

It can be seen that both the man and the lady seem to be very gentle people.

It was like the picture I had imagined.

It's normal, but that's what I expected.

No way, after staying in the dark for a long time, even if she was taken care of by the people in the light, how dare she expect too much from the things in the light?Vertex Fiction

As for the children, it made her think of Bell, Lisha and... Xier.

"Axiu..."

Chanting that name, seeing the outline of her head reflected in the cup of coffee, Sakura smiled helplessly.

Laughing a little helplessly, a little nostalgic but helpless.

It's really an easy scene to touch the scene.

Taking another few sips of coffee, Sakura sighed.

Brightness and warmth, as expected, have always been what she expected most.

It is estimated that such a warm and ordinary life is what the young man has been looking forward to.

Chapter 276 Li Xin, chasing after dark

Seeing the family of four sitting at another table, happily chatting about topics that only family members can talk about, Sakura couldn't help showing a smile.Vertex Fiction

That's great.

Looking at the coffee cup with the bottom visible, Sakura put down a few coins, stood up and walked out of the cafe.

Stepping into the bustling street, watching the people coming and going, passing by her, the smile on the corner of Sakura's mouth gradually disappeared.

The warmth in his eyes was replaced by indifference, and his whole face was expressionless.

Her footsteps suddenly hurried a lot.

She still has a mission, the mission of being the killer "Forget-me-not".

Perform the task of the high-level flame moths, and clean up the traitors of the flame moth branch in the European region.

And now, the last part of the traitors has fled to the Twilight Street in the European area, which is exactly this area.

Next, it's hunting time.

Even though the city is still brightly lit, as long as there is light, there will definitely be shadows.

And she is the one who is active in it.

Walking into the unremarkable dark alley, Sakura took off her earphones and put on the fox mask around her waist again.

Pressing the tip of her left finger, the ice-blue spirit knife that had been shrunk through miniaturization technology appeared in her hand again.

"Time to act."

Whispering, her figure took a few brisk steps and quickly climbed up to the roof, reaching a place that most people would not easily see.

The night wind blew away her long hair and the tight clothing she was wearing.

In those pitch-black pupils, the lights in the distance were reflected.

Sakura took a deep breath, then opened her eyes suddenly, and locked her eyes on the light.

Under the light of the moonlight, she saw the poor place that seemed out of place in the bustling city.

And, her hearing, heard the footsteps of the few remaining traitors scurrying for their lives.

Without exception, all of them converged to that place, the poor and disorderly place of Twilight Street.

Holding the Spiritual Knife tightly, Sakura quickly shuttled across the roof, approaching that place at the fastest speed.

Yes, it's time to perform the task.

Tonight, this spirit knife has to see some blood before it can be sheathed.

……

Twilight Street Orphanage.

"come in."

After learning about the general situation, Aponia, the director of the Twilight Street Orphanage, did not dare to delay at all.

"Thank you very much!"

Seeing these people hurriedly enter the orphanage with thanks, Aponia closed the door, and then sighed helplessly.

These thanks are not sincere thanks to her, but just thanks for the opportunity that can provide a shelter and allow them to survive.

After all, the feeling of being hunted down by invisible killers from time to time is not so pleasant.

These people used to be considered as their partners.

After all, from the bottom of her heart, she wanted to help those patients infected with Honkai disease, so she took in many such patients in the orphanage privately.

In today's world, the only largest organization that fights against Honkai is Moths of Fire.

Therefore, since they also want to do their best to save those patients from the flame moth branch in the European region, Aponia is naturally willing to join hands with these people.

After all, they all share the same goals and efforts.

But on the bright side, it is an unacceptable behavior to take in patients infected with Honkai without permission.

What's more, even if the starting point and goal are good, it is absolutely not allowed to study the method of curing Honkai disease privately.

So, these things have always come secretly.

It wasn't until Su Shixiu invested in this orphanage that they did these things secretly, and they had a bright umbrella.

After all, it's not that Su Shixiu doesn't know everything. Most of the time, he just chooses to turn a blind eye.
