Collapse 3: The girl who chased the fire moth

——Second place, my real Alicia

"Fate didn't give me the power to choose, and I didn't have the right to choose fate. I prayed and struggled, but I got deeper and deeper in the cage."

—The third, Alponia of the commandments

"If one day the era is doomed to die, then I choose to present an elegy for it at the last moment and die with her."

——Fourth Place, Golden Eden

"The conception of a genius should be cheered. What has been predicted is not a result. It is a miracle bestowed on the times. That is the real "magic."

——The fifth place, the spiral Velvet

"If the world is chaos and people are rubbish, those who are truly sober should say this - look inside and out, and kill everyone you meet!"

——The eighth place, Setsuna, Sakura

...

This is the story of thirteen men who failed to be heroes, none of whom became the heroes the world expected them to be.

But each of them is a true hero.

………………

The plot hidden behind the dish of reminiscence made me cry, I feel it, woo woo woo woo (╥ω╥`)

Chapter 21 Patofelice

"This is Salome, surveillance and automatic positioning missiles are in place."

"This is Lewis, the trigger bomb for the Emperor-level Honkai Beast is in place."

"This is Lixue, the infrared sensor and infrared cutter are already in place."

"This is Su, Suzana. The heat sensor and automatic machine gun are already in place."

"Received, this is Adam, repeat, the enemy is likely to be extremists, safety is the priority, and all trigger attacks will be launched as soon as the enemy shows hostility."

"Li Xue received it, but Deputy Captain Adam, are you sure this is safety first?"

"This is Adam, of course sure, our safety comes first."

"Susana received it, deputy captain, you are becoming more and more like the captain..."

"Received by Lewis, I carried half of the warehouse's bombs, not enough to continue."

"Salome received, Lewis, please don't say it like a drink refill, we are a serious organization, not terrorists."

"This is Lewis, Salome, obviously we are a little more extreme than terrorists."

twelve o'clock midnight

evening street

"Oh, the boss just now is really generous. He gave me a lot of money. Are those things so valuable?"

A girl with bangs almost covering her eyes walks down the street, happily counting money,

"There is such a market for those black and white things, hehe, did I post it!"

"Da da da."

Suddenly, the girl's ears moved, and she looked into the darkness ahead.

There are no lights on this street. For people who walk around here all year round, hearing is the most important means of knowing the way.

"Foot, footsteps? Walking so neatly..."

It was probably the sound made by high heels, but it must have been the sound the girl heard before. This sound was too light and rhythmic.

Based on intuition and experience, the girl also understands that this is a person who is very light and is used to walking without making a sound. Too rhythmic footsteps show that the other person is an extremely indifferent person in his heart.

But there is a contradiction in this way, if she is used to not making a sound, why would she wear high heels.

"Da da da."

Crisp and sharp.

Before seeing anyone, the girl wanted to run away, but her intuition told her that if she dared to turn her back on this person, she would die a miserable death.

It's for her!

Although the girl was trembling, she was very sure of this, even though she hoped that the other party was just passing by.

Purple lightning came from the dark night, and it illuminated those who came before——

A black girl with hair, pupils, and horns.

As the girl expected, she was indeed wearing high heels. Although she was dressed like a trendy girl on the street, she had the aura of a death-defying god of death.

The evidence is the gun in her right hand with purple lightning flashing.

The overly cold eyes and the crackling gun in his hand almost increased the oppressive feeling the girl received to the limit.

And her first words——

"Good...good...good..."

"Okay? I heard that there is a trade in soul steel nearby, so I came here to check it out. It seems that it is you. What do you say? Interesting, this is the first time someone saw me and said yes."

Melutina slowly raised the God Key in her hand and pointed it at the girl.

"Good man spare your life!"

The girl finally choked out the second half of her sentence, and threw herself on the ground almost without hesitation.

"..."

The lightning suddenly stopped, and then, Melutina showed a very astonished expression,

"……Eh?"

"Forgive me, big sister, I really don't know anything, I'm a good citizen... at most, steal something to sell, I'm not a bad person..."

The girl tugged at Melutina's thigh with tears in her eyes, that was a humble thing.

"..."

This is...

I can't do it to Melutina.

.........

"This is Lewis...the vice-captain, what's the situation?"

"This is Adam, uh, the original plan was to remove an arm as long as the other party didn't immediately kneel down and beg for mercy..."

"This is Salome...but she is really begging for mercy..."

"This is Su, Su Shanna, us, did we make a mistake? Should we withdraw our weapons first... No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the legendary boss."

"This is Lixue... I think Suzana is right."

"This is Adam, with permission."

.........

A moment later, under the shocked eyes of the girl with bangs, five people emerged from the darkness, and then they found all kinds of dangerous things from the ground, house, and grass.

She also saw suspected missiles and machine guns in it...

The most outrageous thing was that a strong dark-skinned woman dug out several kilograms of bombs from the ground near her.

"Wait, Lewis, you go first, don't withdraw the bomb first."

Melutina waved her hand.

"Yes."

Lewis nodded and went to help Suzanne move the machine gun.

Under the shocked gaze of the girl with bangs, Melutina sat on the bomb, crossed her legs, and lifted the girl's chin with her shoes.

"Name."

"Pa, Papa..."

The girl started stuttering again.

"Don't be afraid, this one won't explode. Of course, it depends on whether you cooperate or not."

Melutina said lightly.

"I, I, my name is Padufelice."

Fadofelice said honestly.

"Well, very good. Are you from Twilight Street?"

"Yes, it is."

"Profession?"

"No, no job..."

"kindness?"

"Really! I don't have a formal job! I usually follow the cat to find some canned food...steal, steal something to buy, help people find things...to make a living."

"……what."

Melutina held her forehead,

"So, you stole those soul steels?"

"Soul steel? Is that thing called soul steel?"

Patofelis instantly understood what was the reason, and his intestines were almost green with regret.

"Big sister, it's yours... If I had known it was yours, I wouldn't have dared to steal it... I, I have no eyes, I won't dare to do it again next time... Your lord has a lot, please forgive me."

"Do you want another time?"

Melutina raised her eyebrows.

"No, dare not! There will be absolutely no next time!"

"Let me just ask, how did you steal such a large amount of soul steel?"

"Uh, that's right, someone wanted this item, so I secretly smuggled it in bit by bit while the transporter wasn't paying attention."

"Well, I shouldn't trust the professional ability of those gangsters... What's the matter with the boss? I heard that there is a mysterious boss nearby."

"Then, that..."
