Thanks for the invitation. I am a parasite in Terra.

Laurentina spoke to Zuo Jian who was standing aside in surprise without turning her head.

"No... I'm just curious about how you knew..."

"Do you know why you came to me to discuss going on a long journey together?"

Laurentina said with a sad smile.

"Besides this, is there anything else that you can't do? Apart from the connection with me, what else is the shackle that stops you?"

"No, I don't use you as a shackle, I just..."

Zuo Jian opened his mouth and wanted to explain something, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Laurentina.

"Really? But you don't even want to tell me what you did. Even now, when you think of me, it's only because my existence restricts your range of activities... Zuo Jian, you said I'm not your shackles, then what is it?"

"Yes, you said that I could force you back to my side... But, will that work? Maybe after a while, you will hate me for it... But I just..."

Laurentina stood up and stared closely at the left room.

"I just...want to be with you..."

She walked in front of the other person, lowered her head slowly and spoke.

"So, I won't continue to ask questions. I will pretend that I know nothing. So... Zuojian... don't think that I am a burden to you... or a shackle... okay..."

"No, that's not the case!"

The left room's appearance changed again in an instant.

His posture instantly became exactly the same as Laurentina's...which was proof that he was only thinking about her at the moment.

He stepped forward and hugged Laurentina tightly.

"It's not what you think, Laurentina. I never thought you were a burden! If you hadn't accepted me and were willing to walk with me, I might not have survived until now... From the beginning to the end... I have always regarded you as... my only hope in this world..."

"The most important family...so...I'm sorry...I just don't want you to be involved in these...messy situations that have nothing to do with you."

"It has nothing to do with me... Zuo Jian, does this have anything to do with you?"

Laurentina, who was hugged by Zuo Jian, asked slowly.

"...I just always feel like I should do something."

"It's about you...why do you think it has nothing to do with me?"

Laurentina spoke softly, with a hint of complaint.

".....sorry....."

"If you want to confess, you can do so on the way. After all, I guess you're in a hurry."

Zuo Jian looked a little guilty, but after a while, he just replied

"Ah."

But at this moment...

The door to the room opened.

Skadi walked out of the room holding the communicator in one hand and the box in the other.

Among them, the communicator was still playing the banter between the two hosts of the Victoria Talk Show.

'I often say that sometimes a smile does not make people feel at ease, but rather fearful.'

'What do you mean, Paul?'

'I remember when I was in college, my first girlfriend, my God, Stick, you know, now every

Every time I recall her smile, I always break out in a cold sweat. When I see the curve of her mouth, I feel like I'm being played around by her!'

'Is it that scary?'

'It's very scary!'

Skadi looked down at the screen, then raised her head to look at Laurentina, who was being hugged by Zuo Jian with her chin resting on his shoulder.

The latter smiled at Zuo Jian's back, as if his plan had succeeded.

The little killer whale was stunned, then looked down at the program on the communicator.

"I'll tell you, that kind of smile... as if he had anticipated everything, three points of success, two points of confidence, and ninety-five points..."

Skadi glanced at the description on the screen, was stunned, then looked up at Laurentina beside her.

.....Lower your head again, look again, and raise your head again.

......

"Exactly the same!"

For a moment, she even shouted in surprise.

"Shark, your smile is exactly like the bad woman on TV... wuwu!"

She had barely said half of her words when her mouth was blocked by white tentacles transformed from the hem of her skirt.

"Laurentina, are you smiling?"

Hearing this, Zuo Jian slowly let go of the other person, and then asked with some happiness.

It seemed that she was no longer angry.

"No... unless you tell us everything about you and that woman later."

Laurentina turned her head and gave Zuo Jian a little girl's smile.

"...I will."

Skadi looked at the terrifying speed at which Laurentina's expression changed, and then glanced at the program playing on the communicator next to her.

'Also, that woman's expression changes really fast. I was played around by her like that in the beginning!'

"Uhhhhh!!!"

"What is Skadi yelling?"

Zuo Jian turned his head and looked at Skadi, who had a strange expression on his face, with some surprise.

However, Laurentina stepped forward and dragged Skadi back to the room.

"Killer Whale just said that she didn't know how to wear some of her clothes. Oh, really, I told you not to watch such meaningless shows. You even followed the trend and bought so many weird clothes————"

"Mmmmm--Nasusha and Limai (That's the shark you bought!)"

Laurentina also turned off the communicator in Skadi's hand, and then dragged her into the room with a kind face.

"It's okay. Killer Whale won't take much time. Zuojian, we'll be there soon. I guess Killer Whale would like to try out new clothes before going out, right?"

"?! Ugh! Isn't that what you were planning to wear, Shark?!!! Zuo Jian, save me... Ugh."

Skadi's cry for help disappeared as the door closed, leaving Zuo Jian, who was confused, sighing that the relationship between Laurentina and Skadi was really... like sisters?

However, since we can set off right away...we can also prepare for the other side in advance.

Zuo Jian sighed.

In the end, was it Laurentina who understood herself?

........You are really incompetent, Zuojian.

------------------

"So incompetent, so slow!"

Abrana leaned on the land vehicle beside her and glanced at Zuo Jian who hurried out of the building.

"Sorry, I was dealing with some things just now, so I was delayed for a while...How could you be so fast?"

"You said the Duke wanted to see us, so my sister couldn't wait to change her clothes and get ready to come down..."

"Hey! Ravshine!"

She looked at her sister with some displeasure as she exposed herself like this.

"Really... But then again... I don't actually know where the Dukedom is. I still need to contact the man in the gray hat."

Zuo Jian took out the communicator and prepared to dial.

"Gray hat? Wait, this gray hat you're talking about isn't it a weird guy wearing a gray hat and a gray windbreaker?"

Abrana frowned and asked curiously.

He nodded, then asked in surprise.

"What? Do you know him?"

"It doesn't count as acquaintance."

After she finished speaking...she turned her head away with some embarrassment.

"..."

"That guy was sneaking around. When my sister went downstairs, she thought he was a thief who broke into the hotel, so she beat him up and handed him over to the security guards in the guard room downstairs."

Ravshini pointed out the reason why Abrana was embarrassed.

"...?"

"Who told him to behave suspiciously and wear such strange clothes! Besides, even the security guard who came over thought this guy was a criminal!"

Abrana immediately defended herself.

"Well... although that gentleman is a bit suspicious... but..."

Zuo Jian wanted to make some excuses for Gray Hat, but considering his sneaky behavior and the clothes he was wearing... it seemed like there was no way to justify it!

Moreover, the security guards...if he remembered correctly, the security guards here were not familiar with the inside story of the gang and were hired through formal application procedures.

That's why they were kept in the left room.

If it is normal security

If you encounter this situation, you should...

...Send him to the police station?

......

...

.

"Tell me! What is your purpose? What do you want to do?"

In the dim interrogation room, the man in the gray hat slowly opened his eyes.

Damn it.

Who is that little girl?

He was careless and didn't dodge, so he was knocked unconscious by the opponent's punches from the front and back.

....The tingling sensation still remains in my eye sockets...

Damn it, he just felt that the room he was in was too weird and he unconsciously wanted to go out for some fresh air!

"Police station..."

Zuo Jian leaned on the edge of the car seat and shook his head helplessly.

He rolled down the car window and squinted his eyes at the Victoria police badge hanging high on the guardrail outside the building in front of him.

The sun's rays shone on this bright area, making the gold-painted emblem sparkle brightly - that is, unless your eyesight was good enough to directly observe the fine rust hidden under the golden paint.

"Hey.....am I causing you any trouble?"

Abrana, who was sitting in the back seat with her seat belt fastened obediently, spoke softly.

"?"

Zuo Jian turned his head and saw the other person wanting to admit his mistake but unable to lower his head.

"If nothing unexpected happens, sister, we did make a mistake this time."
