I clapped my hands, thinking that the lights would go off in an instant, highlighting that everything is under my control,
But at this second when nothing happened,
Looking at Kerim who seemed to be hesitant to speak, and Tang Bing's unbearable gaze beside him, Fangran felt that he couldn't hold back the distorted chuckle on his face.
Ahh... It seems a little different from what I thought...
etc!
After being stunned for a second, Fangran immediately realized the problem. If the lighting didn't turn off as planned, that means... .
Something happened to Jota! ! !
"That... Your Excellency, may I ask..."
"No! Sorry, take care of the gourd for me first! I'll be right back!"
And at the moment when he realized that something unexpected happened to the plan, before Kerim could finish his words, Fangran dropped the words and rushed out the door in a hurry.
Kelim, who seemed to be asked by an acquaintance to take care of the child, was a little dazed, and Tang Bing, who seemed to be entrusted to take care of the child as a child, was left with a dark face.
Even in formal attire, he moves vigorously and quickly, and the sound of leather shoes running on the floor tiles in the corridor is hurried,
The location of the control room should be underground...
Rushing into the emergency escape route from the second floor where the dance hall is located, unbuttoning his suit that was in the way, Fangran jumped directly from the gap in the stairs!
Osphia should have distracted the only participant here, so what happened next
ambush? help
Could it be that Jota was caught by them!
Calmly thinking about the worst possibility, as the suit flew down and his eyes were darkened, Hai Ji and Mu Lin appeared beside Fangran, and flew into the basement floor where the control room was located before him.
"who!?"
The moment he opened the door and broke in, the two figures in sunglasses who had been exposed to Fangran's vision for a long time, just as he was about to pull out his gun, he saw a black figure flash in front of his eyes, and then fainted immediately!
After taking care of the two miscellaneous soldiers, he did not relax his vigilance. He first confirmed the situation in the control room, but after not finding the imaginary enemy figure, he subconsciously searched the field of vision on this floor.
Fangran was suddenly taken aback.
The clenched palms slowly relaxed, and even the darkness in his eyes slowly dissipated. He walked lightly towards the other side of the control room. After entering the room that was probably the staff locker room,
Jota was found curled up in the innermost compartment.
He lowered his head and gritted his teeth tremblingly, pulling his hair with his fingers so hard that his knuckles turned white.
Putting down his worries, Fangran slowly walked up to him and squatted down, and said softly in relief:
"Jota?"
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Fangran...."
The sobbing words were extremely difficult, choked as if he was about to be unable to breathe, guilt and remorse burned his heart, so that Jota could only bury his head with his hair torn off, and his crying words were weak and hoarse.
"I'm... sorry... I couldn't.. make it...."
At the moment when I saw someone coming from the surveillance, I remembered the malice I had felt from others, and the fear that came from the backlash instantly shattered the confidence I had just built.
Listening to the footsteps that sounded like a countdown, the collar was soaked in sweat, the wrist could not be lifted, the eyes were wide open and trembling,
Yota instinctively hid.
"sorry Sorry... "
Facing Fangran, he could only repeat this sentence of apology, self-loathing and self-blame and guilt completely overflowed in his heart.
"Obviously the other party is just a few ordinary people... Obviously I should be able to beat them... Now that everyone is trapped... I should do something... Do something like Fangran what... that's why I... .but..."
Jota choked up and cried out all his ugliness, then his voice became smaller as he gritted his teeth, and admitted his cowardice with tears streaming down his eyes.
"I am afraid... "
And listening to his words at this moment, hearing all the sadness and fear in his voice, and hearing that he was still thinking about such things, Fangran looked at the crying young man in front of him, as if he saw the end of the night in the capital Own,
He suddenly found that Jota was very similar to him.
He didn't experience the awakening scene normally, stayed in that dark hut, wrote novels that only he could see, even as a participant, he was just a child who hadn't grown up yet...
Thinking back to the comfort given to him by waking up that night, this time Fangran wanted to be someone else to rely on.
"Listen, Jota,"
So he patted Yota on the shoulder lightly, and said with a gentle smile as if he was on the roof of Tokyo that night:
"Do you know? I originally planned to settle it with Osfia tonight."
The moment he heard his soft words, his sobs stopped slightly, and Jota heard the memory of Fangran chuckling.
"Because of the Jota I know, he is timid, afraid of others, socially phobic and delusional, huddled in a dark room, tied himself to a chair..."
"He has absolutely no guts to take part in the action."
The next second when he felt ashamed before the facts, Jota suddenly heard Fangran chuckle:
"So you know how surprised I was when I saw you stand up?"
He raised his head in astonishment, tears blurred his face.
"For the first time, you've done a good job,"
Seeing the longing figure in front of him, he was extremely serious and confident, and spoke softly.
"The moment of success is precious, but the failure that can be regretted to the point of tears is also rare,"
Then Yota was stunned to see that Fangran patted himself on the shoulder vigorously, blinked at himself, and put on a cheerful and encouraging smile on his face.
"You have already shown your courage, be more confident!!"
"And you don't need to apologize to me, I'm your companion."
Seeing his tear-stained face, his body shimmering and about to be recalled from the scene, Fangran got up and patted his chest to assure him:
"It's just to tie a ticket and force the security guards to rush out. Small question, who do you think I am!"
Then at the moment when he was about to fulfill his promise, he remembered an important thing and turned around with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, Lime is at the Observatory in Greenwich, remember to find her."
Sitting slumped on the ground, staring blankly at his figure, listening to his words of encouragement even so, the soreness rushed to the eye sockets, making the vision blurred and unable to see anything.
The unprecedented annoyance and remorse in his life made Jota grit his teeth and almost bleed.
"Again... once more! Give me another chance!"
The choked and difficult cry was still full of remorse and fear, but the tearful eyes filled with urgency made him cry with all his strength:
"I will definitely help you, Fang Ran! Definitely!!"
The weight of tears hit the ground, like a vow was made.
Fangran, who heard his words, looked back slightly in a daze, and then looked at Jota and nodded with a smile.
"Well, I'll wait."
I once thought, what is the reason why everyone rescued me from the North Pole...
Kindness
No, none of them except Sister Susu knew that I was Night Crow.
Is it the same as me that night in the capital, I don't want to see someone around me die, and my selfishness is broken every day...
Probably not.
Only recently did I slowly understand...
Just because I'm a member of the Night Bureau.
Glancing at the two unconscious figures and the direction of the control room, Fangran turned around and walked upstairs to the room he was in just now. He rearranged his suit and buttoned it up, thinking about getting on the plane back to Huaxia. Think clearly about the answer.
It is different from family affection, love, or friendship, but like Qing Ning should say, "Of course I will help you",
It is purely the 'bond' born from the connection of the night bureau.
That's what my brother wanted to tell me on the plane,
I am not alone.
Recalling Jota's last resolute appearance just now, the moment he realized this, he felt joy from the bottom of his heart for some reason,
The arc of the chuckle at the corner of his mouth expanded uncontrollably, and he wanted to fly up in a brisk mood. Fangran pushed open the door of the meeting room just now, and seeing Kerim and Tang Bing for some reason, they both looked nervously at him. own.
"Huh? What's the matter?"
At the moment when he asked a question with a smile in a light and good mood, Fangran suddenly sensed the breath of the wind elf, and the voice of Osfiya who did not know how much magic energy he had consumed rang in his ears after crossing the long distance.
"Fang...! Get out of here... That! This is a trap!!!"
The moment the eyes froze,
The restriction ring suddenly surrounded Fangran's body, physical restraint and mental interference took effect at the same time!
Spatial fluctuations suddenly appeared in this room, and after beams of light lit up one after another, a total of 7 B-level figures appeared in front of his eyes!
