Beng San, I have an unfinished date with her

Under the witness of the street lamp, a "battle" that could not be called a battle disappeared.

Only his handsome back blended into the night.

......

The roaring engine sounded again, and Silaka started the vehicle.

But he turned around and headed towards the way he came.

If what he thought was right, then he should not be the only place or person who was attacked.

After a few minutes...

"The rulers of this country are really impatient... They are so anxious that they jump over the wall." Long said as he turned the car and arrived at a two-way carriageway.

Another brake.

Although he didn't have much contact with Aponya, he couldn't hide some of her subordinates' movements from him, and he had met him several times, so he probably knew the situation.

This includes the location of her church and orphanage.

But it looks like...it's been solved.

I saw the open iron gate of the orphanage.

Qianjie was sitting on the stacked bodies of four guys, looking at the sky thoughtfully.

Kosmo, on the other hand, was also shackling and tying ropes on the other four immobile guys.

"Uh..." The sound of the car could not be hidden from Qianjie and Kosmo. After Kosmo made the sound, he looked over carefully and quickly confirmed who was in the driver's seat: "Teacher Long?"

Before he could step forward to ask strangely.

Kosmo then saw that Long seemed to be looking at each other.

Teacher Long's expression seemed a little surprised, but he quickly returned to his smile and nodded to Qianjie.

Then his eyes turned to Kosmo again, seeming to smile to himself.

"You... know each other?" Kosmo reacted, watched the car continue to drive away, and asked Qianjie.

"I know you." Qianjie replied, and then punched the restless guy under him, causing him to continue to faint.

"..." Kosmo suddenly had some thoughts.

I really didn't expect that this alien Qianjie would meet the kind teacher Long...

But...it seems normal. After all, they are all so strong, unlike humans.

Even as he thought about it, Kosmo didn't stop what he was doing.

He tied them very skillfully and would never give these people a chance to escape.

After tying them up, he needed to put all the weapons away to avoid accidents...

Tonight he saw the power of Qianjie again.

.....

...

"Uh..."

In a church, on Aponya's knee pillow, a heavily armed pink-haired girl woke up.

"you-"

Although she was surprised, she did not resist and held the long knife at her waist.

Because she knew that she was helpless in front of this woman.

The previous failed assassination had proven everything.

What's more, there is still his "former teammate" in this church who is motionless and standing like a sculpture.

"You're awake." Aponya opened her eyes, looked down at the woman on her lap and said gently: "Sit up and talk, my legs are still sore after sleeping for so long."

".....Um."

The pink-haired girl sat up. She looked around and saw that this place was no different from before, it was this church.

And where I am now is the bench in the first row.

At this time, a man's voice reached his ears from the back row.

"When people arrive, they often only have time to see this scene."

"The deceased fell on his back, and a dark red flower bloomed on his chest from the still-coagulated blood. It formed a strange contrast with the several foggy blue forget-me-nots that must have appeared around him."

"No one knows who she is - people only know that there is such a killer in the world. Oh, no, people are not even sure whether she exists."

"I don't know her purpose, I don't know her appearance... I don't even know her name, I can only call her "Forget Me Not". "

"If, and I mean if, if she really existed, her knife must be extremely fast."

"It penetrated and pulled out, and it was over in an instant, so fast that even the deceased could not realize that he was dead... Otherwise, why would there be no pain on the face of the deceased? I really can't think of any other explanation."

"As for those little blue flowers... I'm like you, dear reader, I don't know why she had to leave them there. Is that her mark? Or some kind of belief? Or... she Are you trying to remind someone of something? I don’t know.”

"But what I can be sure of is that no one except me has ever seen how the little blue flower fell from her hands. Because, the little blue flower, it is in front of me now...she , also right in front of me..."

"Ah, how beautiful..."

"Excerpted from the literary short story "Forget Me Not" published in a magazine"

"......"

"Miss Sakura, your deeds are really well-known."

"How do you know-" Sakura's expression was startled, and she was shocked. She turned her head and saw the man.

Long.

Sakura realized something was wrong. She saw some of his information during the intelligence meeting before the gathering point.

Proving he was one of the targets too.

But now he's sitting here unscathed...

They all failed - Sakura realized the result.

Brand new branches: 351. Sakura Blade

"Do you think the article written by this person is suitable to describe you, Miss Sakura?"

Under Sakura's gaze, Takashi closed the magazine in his hand, put it aside, pressed his hands together on his folded knees, and looked at himself with a soft smile.

Sakura turned her head, glanced at Aponia, the people and everything in the church, and sat on the bench helplessly.

When he woke up, there was absolutely no one on the bench behind him.

In other words, this man only discovered his arrival after he started reading the article...

It was completely clear - he was definitely no match.

Two opponents that he could not defeat mentally and physically were beside him.

There is no chance.

"......"

Sakura helplessly looked at the faceless statue in the deepest part of the church, thinking nothing else but regret and apology for her sister.

I regret that I should not have taken this mission.

I'm sorry I can't be with her anymore.

Sakura would not hope that these people would bypass her and spare a killer.

But at this moment, Aponya took hold of Sakura's catkins that had left the handle of the knife and were hanging on the bench.

She said: "What are you regretting? What are you sorry for?"

Sakura looked at her, then at her hand held by her... and said nothing.

But Aponya still asked softly: "Why don't you tell me? You really want to live, don't you?"

"You—!" Sakura almost jumped up in shock, but her calm temperament and Xijing's lifestyle allowed her to suppress the panic that spread to her body.

"Stay alive, everyone wants to live."

"Whether it's them..." Aponya said, raising his arms and pointing his palms at the killers standing in the church, then he closed his palms on his chest and said, "Or me, I want to Live. What do you want to live for? Whether it is biological instinct, family, or fear of the unknown..."

"Then why do you want to live?"

Sakura's brows furrowed slightly. She wasn't sure what this woman wanted to say - this woman was the leader of a new sect, and her verbal thinking ability and ability to penetrate psychology must be very strong... It's best not to say too much. say what.

But think again.

Sakura found that she didn't seem to have anything worth digging into.

He... becomes a killer in order to make money and becomes a killing tool for investors - it is impossible for him to know anything secret.

I only have one secret, one treasure...

His own sister——Ling.

"......"

Sakura was thinking, she couldn't figure this out...she had never thought about this in the past.

【not good! 】

Sakura realized something, her curiosity was aroused, and she kept thinking about things related to it. This made her new feeling of regret for her sister temporarily lowered in her heart.

In other words, the attention was diverted...

The other party doesn’t want him to die?

But if you get involved in the struggle between the two parties...

bell!

Sakura was shocked again, this time was different, she jumped up and distanced herself.

Since the opponent doesn't want him to die... then just let him take the initiative once.

In a matter of milliseconds, he used his thumb to move the long knife at his waist!

When it was difficult for ordinary people to react, he shot out with a step, stepped forward, and made a neat slash with his sword!

"Cen—!"

The short but sharp sound of unsheathing resounded throughout the church.

The sharp blade cut through the air and reflected the light.

In an instant, it seemed as if a blue light swept over, breaking through the dim and warm lights inside the church.

Unparalleled beauty

Beautiful and dangerous.

It is a swordsmanship that can be said to have reached the state of perfection.

Under normal circumstances, Sakura should be behind the enemy at this moment.

She stood and retracted the unsheathed knife, making it difficult for others to see her blade.

But this time...

The blade could not be withdrawn.

Several rows of benches were broken, including where Long and Aponia were sitting.

This made him both stand up.

At this time, Sakura's blade was in front of Aponya's neck, firmly trapped between Takashi's index and middle fingers.

Even though Yingying's arms were shaking with so much force, she couldn't pull it out.

Aponya didn't even turn his head, he was still so calm.

And Long was looking at himself with a smile.

...
