It was as though they suddenly found the string connecting a round
All the little frag about in Feisha's ether, and he let out an involuntary ”Ah!” sound
How Gin and Hughes disappeared, Asa and Layton departed, Shamal was abducted, Antonio and Locktini vanished…they were all just pawnsto a prewritten script Each oal
Without realizing it, he suddenly found himself the only survivor Unfortunately he wasn't exactly Conan, otherwise he would run straight up to the culprit, point directly at his nose, and declare: only one truth prevails! (1)
”Then what should we do now?”
Isefel replied, ”Let's wait and see”
”…Is there a more…proactive course of action?” Feisha asked
Isefel replied, ”Before the ball begins, take a nap and recharge a bit”
”I' the ball?” Feisha asked, rather shocked
”Mhmm”
Feisha, stunned, sat down for quite a while before asking ”So, the next rescue operation will just depend on us now?”
Although many TV drama androles to highlight the ionist, when this happened in real life, he still preferred not to be the hero in the liht Teamwork should still come first
No wonder why the solitary heroes of those stories always seemed so lonely, even when they ith their friends and everyone else was having the time of their lives It turns out they knew that even if they were sitting beside their friends now, at the crucial moment, those companions would vanish one by one In the end, they would be left alone to survive the vicissitudes of life with only the weapons they held in their own hands
”Sleeping already?” Isepfel couldn't help but ask after Feisha's long silence
”No” Feisha watched the sunset outside his , h ”I' this taste of loneliness”
”……”
”Isefel, what are you doing?”
”I'aped for , ”Here I a around every corner and my life in peril…don't you think you're a bit too relaxed?”
All the heroic determination he talked into hinity, evaporated ”How about you tell me a story? But I don't want to listen to the Tortoise and the Hare, that one's too childish I want to listen to soful I want to listen to the Wizard of Oz!”
”I kind of miss your loneliness from just now”
In Noah's Ark, Isefel sat on the sofa and slowly sipped his coffee
The minute and second hands of the watch ticked forward at once
Seven 'o clock
Ever punctual, Geikie appeared at the doorway ”The ball has begun, and elco his ti, he said, ”I wanted to attend as a representative of hue at all as he replied ”All can be done as you please”
Soe a little?
Feisha was a bit disappointed He thought it through Since everyone already knehat he was hiding, it didn't ht as wellit openly
”Can I ask you so?” On their way to the ballroom, Feisha asked
Geikie replied ”Of course”
”Who's the mastermind behind this whole conspiracy?”
Geikie replied gently ”I' to is, so I definitely don't knoho the ht be”
”Then when did you realize I was a human?”
”When you took off your cloak”
”……”
”I was really surprised” Geikie smiled
”……” Feisha touched his nose, then advised hi to the Beijing Film Academy or the Central Acadeo part-time as a production runner to in Hollywood too”
Geikie's set the time, I'll definitely take a look Here is the ballroom If you please”
Feisha stared at the ht index finger unconsciously twitched
The door slowly opened
Bright lights filled his sight and gentle music rushed to his ears
Feisha raised his hand and lightly touched the Black Star on his brooch, as if doing so could grant hie He took a deep breath, lifted his feet, and stepped through the door
There werethe ball than he expected
The scene he originally iined, where the entire audience would ih the door, did not co their own partners as they danced across the floor without a care for anything else
Feisha stood near the doorway and suddenly felt as if he had been abandoned
Black hair, blonde hair, blue hair, red hair……there were people with all sorts of hair colors Here, he blended into the crowd, completely unexceptional
His fear vanished in an instant, Feisha quickly shook it off and walked to a corner of the dance floor and quietly reported the current situation to Isefel After finishi+ng, his expression turned bitter as he asked, ”Just noas I being a bit too i to be like this, he wouldn't have tried to act all heroic and reveal his identity dramatically Maybe Geikie really didn't knoas a hu it to make me feel better?”
”No”
”But really, no one's paying any attention to ht he already had everything figured out for sure He had mentally prepared hi like this
”That's because they don't need to” Isefel said calmly ”Because to them, there's only one eneo cold
”That's you”
Then in turn, wouldn't that mean everyone before him was an enemy!?
Feisha surveyed the room All around him were crowds of people, i lower and lower
”Isefel…”
