Endless Silver Machine

Chapter 7 The Opportunity for Decision

The raindrops finally couldn't bear the constraints of gravity and poured down from the clouds.

"It's almost late..."

The motorcycle was still locked in the garage by Liuyin, and in ten minutes he would face the beginning of the morning meeting of the Imperial City Defense Bureau, which made him want to cry without tears.

Aika, who was sitting on the steps next to her, had already dozed off. Her head suddenly fell down and she woke up immediately.

"Legs! They're numb..."

Then he lay on the corridor with his legs in pain, unable to move. Even if he moved even a millimeter, he would be in excruciating pain.

"It seems to hurt a lot, are you okay?"

"It's strange that nothing is wrong! You've been sitting here sleeping for so long, how come you don't have any problems?"

"Just walk around after you wake up. Maybe it's because the master trained you to have a special physique before."

"You traitor..."

"Aika, you should exercise more when you have time. There is no harm in it."

While Shun was teasing Aika, the mansion door creaked.

Aika didn't care about the poor blood flow in her legs and immediately stood up from the steps. He doesn't want other girls to see him like this under any circumstances. This is the last self-esteem of a boy.

A little head with long silver hair popped out from the crack in the door.

"Why are you here..."

"I also want to know why I am here..."

Liuyin seemed not to remember what happened last night. Being wrongly accused by the innocent is a common occurrence, and Aika feels that if she dwells on this point any longer, she might really go crazy.

Shun just did a somersault and immediately knelt down in front of Liu Yin. The last dignity of a man was completely vulnerable in the face of "respect for teachers."

In fact, he just had to beg Liuyin's forgiveness in the fastest way. Next, he had to ask for forgiveness from his colleagues in the Imperial City Defense Bureau.

"Forget it, you all come in..." Liuyin, who seemed to have not yet fully woken up, retracted her little head from the crack in the door, "Shun, the moisture on your body is so heavy..."

"So please let me use the bathroom. I have to go to work later."

Liuyin just waved his hand casually to indicate that he was free to do it. Liuyin, who had not yet woken up, was swaying as if he had low blood sugar.

When Aika approached the lobby of the mansion, she happened to meet Ling and Luoluo walking downstairs.

"Brother!" Luoluo ran downstairs in three steps and two steps at a time, and threw himself into the arms of Aika who was caught off guard. "It's really good that you're okay..."

"Fool, what can happen to me? I'm just covered in dew and feel a little cold. If you are hugged like this, your whole body will become wet."

"Then please go to the bathroom right away and I'll help you dry your clothes."

Even if he can't use elemental magic, Luoluo can still arrange these small things in daily life in an orderly manner.

What the elder brother cannot do, the younger sister can help make up for. This is the existence called brother and sister.

"Please, Luo Luo. Ling, Wei Xi, good morning."

As soon as he came in, he was knocked down by Luo Luo. Only now did he realize that Ling and Wei Xi were just standing in the stairwell, watching them from a distance.

"Good morning, did you sleep well last night?" Ling lifted up her long golden hair with one hand, "It seems there is no need to ask."

"Brother Aika... Good morning..." I don't know if Wei Xi recalled the accident last night. When she met Aika's eyes, her cheeks turned cherry red, "What happened last night... I don't care." oh……"

"Hey, go take a shower quickly, I have to go to the headquarters later."

"Wait, you wash with me?"

"We don't have time. Let's just wash together."

"No, no, I'm not in a hurry to wash it. Please go ahead and do it first."

"It will make Sister Luoluo angry, so stop talking nonsense and come in with me."

Shun mercilessly brought Aika closer to the bathroom, and the girls behind him watched their disappearing figures with interest.

"When Shun goes to the Imperial City Defense Bureau later, let's go with him," Liuyin turned around, "They are probably also working on the incident of the magic train explosion. The Nemesis Association should be the one responsible for the attack. I came with you, and you also need to understand the situation."

…………

Because she insisted on coming, she was responsible for breakfast today alone.

Even Aika had to admire the endless list of dishes in Luoluo's mind. The dishes she prepares feel fresh every time, but you can immediately tell that they were made by her. Even Aika, who spends time with her day and night, will never get tired of eating them.

After breakfast, six people piled into the same locomotive. In addition to the driver's and passenger's seats in the front row, the back row can accommodate four girls.

I have to admire Liuyin's vision in choosing a car. The fully loaded motorcycle still ran very smoothly on the road.

Holding the steering wheel for a moment, Aika sat in the passenger seat, while the four girls leaned comfortably on the back seat and enjoyed the scenery passing by outside the window.

The falling raindrops made the car windows blurry, but Shun had no intention of slowing down. It only took a shorter time than before to arrive at the tall Imperial City Defense Bureau headquarters building located at the junction of the East District and the Northwest District.

"Liuyin? Are you okay?"

Through the rearview mirror, Aika noticed that Liuyin's entire face had turned pale.

"Shun...after I go back, I will definitely...um!"

Liuyin quickly covered her mouth with a look of pain on her face.

"Xiaoyin, please stop talking and get out of the car and take a rest!"

It turned out that Liuyin became like this because of motion sickness. The girls kept silent and were only concerned about her body.

Aika was still worried that they hadn't spoken much along the way, and whether something happened between them without her knowing it, but now it seemed that she was just worrying too much.

In the reception hall of the Imperial City Defense Bureau headquarters building, Liuyin occupied three seats on the bench.

"I'll go to the conference room first, and I'll leave it to you, master!"

"Well, we'll wait for you here."

After a few brief explanations, Shun got on the elevator going upstairs.

Luoluo gave Liuyin the water glass handed over by the receptionist's sister.

"Thanks……"

Liuyin struggled to support her body, and Wei Xi naturally supported her from behind. Before this, Liuyin had been enjoying Wei Xi's lap pillow, so she must be very grateful for her state.

"Aika, let me go find their captain."

"Wait a minute..." Before Aika could stop him, the swaying long golden hair disappeared at one end of the corridor, "Forget it, it should be okay to just leave her alone..."

Aika turned her attention back to the group of people hurrying into the hall.

Judging from their dirty uniforms and red-stained bandages, they should be a detachment of the Defense Bureau that had been severely damaged during the mission.

The angry uncle Aika who was leading the group looked a little familiar.

"Uncle Marceau!"

Although his expression was a little scary, Aika still boldly stopped him. Because now Aika wants to know something very much, and apart from Shun and Ruth, the only person familiar here is this uncle.

"Who is it? I'm very busy!" Marceau stopped his hurried steps impatiently, and his attitude softened a little when he recognized Aika, "Oh, it turns out it's your kid...what's the matter?"

Marceau's injury cannot be said to be optimistic. His head was wrapped with several pieces of gauze, and bandages were wrapped layer by layer around the base of his exposed right leg. His left hand was probably broken and was hanging from his neck with a bandage.

"How is this going?"

Luoluo also noticed Masuo's side, and after leaving Liuyin to Wei Xi's care, he also came to Aika.

"I made a mistake when handling the matter," Marceau buttoned up his clothes with his uninjured right hand. He was still more careful about his personal image in front of girls, "but it doesn't matter if you guys know. Hey, you guys go first, I Got something to say to these guys.”

The men who seemed to be Marceau's subordinates waved their hands and left after hearing his words.

"It's really frustrating to say it," Marceau lowered his voice so that only Aika and Luoluo could hear clearly, "I was tricked by the prisoner of the magic train bombing case last night, and I lost several of my subordinates. It’s all like this. Those bastards actually used remote control magic tools. They clearly know our mission and are ready to counterattack!"

"It turns out it was that thing again..."

"The perpetrator of the explosion has been identified."

"An acquaintance of mine told us about this yesterday," Aika said without revealing her relationship with Shun. "Is that criminal organization called the Nemesis Society?"

"You know that there is no need for me to waste my breath." Marceau did not ask who revealed the secret information of the Imperial City Defense Bureau. "By the way, the blond and white-haired ladies from last time are not here today."

After speaking, he looked around and immediately found Wei Xi on a bench not far away. Wei Xi nodded politely and greeted Marceau. She was not as scared as she was when she first saw Marceau.

"Who is that person next to the white-haired lady? I always feel like I have seen her somewhere..." As a knight of the Holy See, Liuyin probably shows up at the Imperial City Defense Bureau occasionally. Marceau must have seen her at some point. "Are you and the white-haired lady sisters?"

"It's probably that kind of relationship."

"I see... I have to go. After reporting to the captain, I still have to deal with the wound. This time it's really..."

Marceau waved his hands as if unable to speak, turned around and strode away in the direction where his colleagues left.

"The Nemesis Society seems not to be an easy organization to deal with."

"Loss...did you mean someone died?"

Luoluo's voice was trembling. It is not difficult to understand this kind of thing, but whether you can accept it is another matter.

Aika touched Luoluo's head. This was the most effective way he knew to calm her down.

"It doesn't matter, we have been involved in this incident, so I..."

"Then brother, you can also..."

"No!" Aika interrupted Luo Luo without any doubt, "I will not kill anyone, nor will I be killed by them. But I will definitely beat them away, and I will definitely make them fight for their own. Pay the price for what you did!”

Luoluo stared into Aika's eyes. It was an all-too-familiar look in his brother's determined eyes.

"Well..." She entrusted everything she had to Aika, "Brother will never lose, he can do anything..."

Although the tone is still a little crying, there is no fear in Luoluo's heart now.

"Hey, hey, everyone around is looking at you, right?"

Liuyin's "kind reminder" intervened between the two of them.

She had completely recovered from the pain of motion sickness, and her face was much rosier than before.

"What happened to them? Tell me what you just heard from him."

"But I think you should have guessed it..."

The four of them sat back on the bench, and Aika repeated the information she had just received from Marceau to Liuyin and Wei Xi.

"Did you actually create that kind of chaos..." Liuyin pressed her cheek against her cheek, not knowing what she was thinking about, "The opponent is the Nemesis Society. We can't act rashly without a comprehensive plan. If they act resolutely like this, problems will definitely arise. ."

In the end, she made a correct but ruthless conclusion.

"We have also been targeted by the Nemesis Society. Are we facing such an enemy..."

"Well, since you are a magic equipment holder, you will become their target." Liuyin would not deceive them, "They are completely different from me. Your chance of winning against them is only..."

At this time, the entire headquarters building shook violently.

The headquarters building of the Imperial City Defense Bureau has a special barrier against magic. The explosion just now should have come from inside the headquarters building.

The isolation door at the entrance began to slowly fall down, and the flashing alarm lights dyed the entire hall a dazzling bright red. The employees of the Imperial City Defense Bureau began to commotion.

"It's on the third floor!" Liuyin could feel a large number of magic particles in the air gathering towards that place, "We'll go there immediately!"

"What if Sister Ling comes back?"

"There's no time to think about that kind of problem, let's take the first step!"

Liuyin took the lead and rushed up the stairs with the "safe passage" lighted on. Taking the elevator at this time was very dangerous.

Aika held Wei Xi and Luo Luo's hands tightly and quickly followed Liu Yin's footsteps.
