Hawks from the Land of Light are calling me a dove and an undercover agent in the chat group.

Emma Sakura lowered her head and sobbed, "I've never had many friends. Everyone likes Shiro-chan, everyone idolizes Shiro-chan, so I've never dared to think that I could become friends with Shiro-chan."

"But, Hiro-chan really did become my best friend... We eat together, go out together, and are always together at school. I, I've always liked Hiro-chan the most!"

Of course, this is just normal liking between friends, nothing more, and there are no lesbians involved.

Upon hearing Emma Sakura's words, Hiro Nikaido's expression softened involuntarily as he recalled the many wonderful times they had shared.

But why, why have they become such a tragic couple?

That's what happened later.

"But ever since I started middle school, Hiro-chan has suddenly become a different person. She leads the others to ostracize me, bully me, and isolate me... I'm so scared. Why is Hiro-chan doing this? But Hiro-chan won't tell me or answer me. Hey, why is that, Hiro-chan?!"

Emma Sakuraba cried out at the end, her eyes glistening with tears.

She was so sincere that the other girls believed Emma.

But before they could even voice their opinions, Nikaido Hiro interrupted them bluntly, saying, "You better stop now, Sakura Emma!"

"You've fabricated the truth like this? Are you trying to say that you're the tragic heroine and Xiaoxue doesn't exist?!"

"Xiaoxue?" The other girls immediately noticed this keyword.

Nikaido Hiro took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said, "Let me start from the beginning. Back in elementary school, just as Sakura Emma said, I also considered her my best friend."

"However, after entering middle school, because we were in different classes, I had less contact with Emma. At that time, I really wanted to continue being as close to her as we were in elementary school, so I kept an eye on her. Then I found out that she had made a new friend named Yuki Tsukishiro."

"During that time, I also started to integrate into the group, became friends with Xiaoxue, and continued to be close to Emma."

"But for some reason, everyone else seems to have a natural malice towards Xiaoxue. Whether it's students and teachers on campus or anyone else off campus, they all seem to find Xiaoxue disgusting and want to bully and humiliate her."

"I have been trying my best to protect Xiaoxue in order to change her situation. However, because I had already decided to study abroad for a short period of time during my middle school years, it had to be changed. I had to go abroad for a short period of time of a few months."

"Before I went abroad, I entrusted Xiaoxue to Emma, ​​asking her to protect Xiaoxue in my place... But when I returned from my studies abroad, what I saw was the scene of Xiaoxue hanging herself because she could not bear the bullying!"

“After I went abroad to study, Emma Sakura didn’t fight against those bullies. Instead, she let others bully Xiaoxue. She abandoned her friends and betrayed my trust and expectations, which ultimately led to this outcome.”

"Your evil deeds are now beyond counting, Emma Sakura!"

Nikaido Hiro roared out the last sentence.

This is so genuine and heartfelt that it doesn't seem like acting.

Faced with this situation, the other girls looked at each other, completely bewildered. What on earth was going on?

“No, wait a minute,” Baosheng Mag said calmly. “Judging by the time, Emma and Shiro’s files should be here soon. They can definitely find out what happened at school. They can find out who is telling the truth just by looking at the files.”

Detective Tachibana Yuki suddenly realized, tapped her head with her hand, and deliberately acted cute to ease the atmosphere: "Oh yeah, there's also this evidence, hehe!"

"I'm sorry, you won't be able to get the files of Nikaido Shiro and Sakura Emma."

"Varied--"

However, at the same time that Baosheng Mag proposed a solution, the owl warden appeared with a hoot and brought bad news.

Or rather, there may be more than one.

"What did you say?" Nikaido Hiro's eyes were sharp, almost glaring at the warden. "What do you mean by 'can't wait any longer'?"

"It means exactly what it says."

The warden shrugged his bird wings and sighed helplessly, saying, "The big shots say your situation is very strange. No matter what the school's surveillance footage is, or what your classmates and teachers have, their memories of you two are all disordered."

“Normally, they know you, remember you, and remember some of the everyday things you’ve done—but this only applies to the two of you, or to yourselves.”

“When it comes to a non-existent third party, they can’t remember anything.”

"A non-existent third party?" Emma Sakura's pupils dilated in shock. "Warden, could it be that the Yukishiro that Hiro-chan mentioned is actually real?"

"Well, I can't say for sure."

The warden shook his head helplessly and said, "However, I tend to think it is true, because, according to the recollections of some students, in their memory, you and Nikaido Hiro used to play and chat happily together on the rooftop during your middle school years."

If what Emma Sakura said is true, and Hiro Nikaido had been isolating her ever since she entered middle school, then this scenario would definitely not have occurred.

"How could this be? Then could it be that I... I really am..."

This truth was like a bolt from the blue for Emma Sakuraba. She was completely devastated. If that was the case, was she really the kind of person Hiro-chan described as extremely wicked, even causing her friend's suicide?

That's really evil!

"Warden!"

Hiro Nikaido didn't take this opportunity to pursue Emma Sakuraba. Instead, as if he had thought of something, he anxiously asked the warden, "Then let them investigate more quickly, let them find out about Yuki. If that happens, if that happens, maybe there's still hope!"

It can disable surveillance and disrupt people's memories.

All of this proves that Yukishiro Tsukishiro was probably not an ordinary person, and may have even possessed magic. Therefore, it's not impossible that she survived after committing suicide.

Because Nikaido Shiro's magic is [Death Rewind], a magic that allows for infinite resurrection!

As for Emma Sakura...

While questioning the warden, Nikaido Hiro couldn't help but steal a glance at the distraught Emma.

From this perspective, Emma wasn't just making excuses; her memories were genuinely distorted, weren't they? But why would Emma's memories show her being persecuted by herself?

If we look on the bright side, Emma might not be so evil after all...

Nikaido Hiro finally softened.

However, before she could think any further, the warden said helplessly, "That's why I said it's impossible."

"Why not?" Nikaido Hiro asked anxiously, his attention drawn back to the present. "Is it a problem with my abilities? Then let me investigate myself. Maybe I can find out something!"

"No, it's not a matter of ability, although that's part of it, but that's not important. What's important is attitude."

"manner?"

"Yes, the big shots don't want to continue the investigation."

"What does it mean?"

"It means..."

The warden, with his deadpan eyes, spoke in a completely flat and neutral tone: "The big shots have decided to no longer heed Mr. Ji's threats, no longer serve you, and are no longer planning to investigate your past."

"And there's even worse news for you: the big shots are determined not to let you out of prison and to make sure you die here."

"How could this be!"

Upon hearing this completely new piece of bad news, several girls immediately panicked.

Hasumi Ryoa, Natsume Anan, Shito Arisa, Tono Hannah and her sister are all ready to live their futures with new life attitudes and beliefs.

But now, out of nowhere, how did I end up on the list of those high-ups who are determined to fight to the death?

"How is that possible? Aren't they afraid of Mr. Ki? And it's already been proven that as long as Mr. Ki is around, our witch transformation is controllable and won't go out of control and kill people. We're innocent!"

"I know, I know all of this, well, the big shots know it too."

"Then why—"

"—Because they feel they know another point better, right?"

The ones who answered the questions from Hannah Tono and the other girls were not the warden, but the calmest ones, Mag Hosho and Shiro Nikaido. They both spoke at the same time, and quickly understood what was going on.

Nikaido Shiro glanced at Hosho Mag, then vacated the stage. The latter, with a serious expression, said directly:

"If I'm not mistaken, [although they are aliens, they actually took the time to rescue a group of unrelated human children, which is enough to prove that this alien is actually kind-hearted and stands on the moral high ground. Such a person may threaten people, but in reality, they would never actually lay a hand on us, so there is no need to be afraid of them, much less obey their orders]."

“I think that’s what the big shots think, right, Warden?”

The cold-bloodedness and scheming of powerful figures, their attempts to deceive the virtuous, were all vividly illustrated in a single sentence by Baosheng Mag.

The warden, Bird Wings, scratched his head and mumbled, "Well, that's clever. That's right."

"How could this happen..."

Several girls began to despair.

But Nikaido Hiro wasn't among them. With a cold face and a frown, she asked, "However, generally speaking, the big shots at the top wouldn't be so decisive when their own safety is at stake."

“If their guess is wrong, the Kirielods will not be able to be controlled by them, and their lives will be in danger. So no matter how you look at it, they cannot turn against you like that, at least not so quickly.”

"Unless they have new technology that can control the Kirieloids... but in such a short time, I think it's unlikely. However, if that's not the case, there must be other reasons why they would dare to do something that is tantamount to gambling with their lives. What exactly is that reason?"

And her confusion was resolved in the next second.

It was Laoji, who had deciphered the witch's language and read all the books in the library. With a snap, Laoji teleported to the hall.

"I know the reason why~"

When Laoji appeared, he was all smiles. Despite knowing that the human leadership would turn their backs on him, he didn't feel any pressure at all.

Nikaido Hiro turned her head to look, and she had to admit that seeing the Kirieloids emerge from seclusion at this moment gave her a sense of security: "What is the reason for that?"

"Well, it goes back to a long, long time ago... uh, well, not that long ago, actually it's been quite a while."

With a chuckle, Lao Ji began to recount the dark truth about this world that he had discovered after deciphering the witch's language, reading all the books in the prison library, and synthesizing the information.

"There have always been two races living on this earth: humans and witches."

"So-called witches are actually exactly the same as humans in appearance and body. The only difference is that each witch is born with her own magic."

"The witch race is small, perhaps only a few thousand people. They have always lived peacefully and quietly on their witch island, without any conflict with the world. That's right, this is not actually a prison, but a place where the witch race used to live, which was later transformed into a prison by humans."

"Later, hundreds of years ago, humans discovered this witch's island."

"In the beginning, some people were shipwrecked and ended up here. The simple and kind witches treated the shipwrecked people well, rescued them, and gave them a ship after they were treated, allowing the humans to return to their own world."

"But they didn't know that the bells of destruction had already been rung by their own hands at that very moment."

"The survivors who returned to human society reported the existence of Witch Island and witches to those in power. As a result, fearing the power of the witches, the human leadership at the time launched a massive military campaign and destroyed the witch race in various ways."

"Although they are no match for the witches who possess magic in terms of strength, the witches have never used their own power to fight before. They are not good at fighting, and they dare not kill or even shed blood. So they are already losing ground."

"On the other hand, there were also frequent conspiracies among the human elite at that time."

“They take hostages, claiming that they can get the witches if the other witches surrender, but then behead the innocent witches after they surrender; they send troops disguised as new innocent victims to lure witches to help them, and then kill the unsuspecting witches.”

"Under all these conspiracies and schemes, the witch race was almost wiped out in no time, because the original witches at that time would not turn into witch remains, so they did not have the ability to regenerate immortality."

"However, no matter what schemes humans devise, they cannot defeat the Great Witch."

"Those are the strongest among the witches, possessing thousands of spells, combining offense and defense. They can stir up tsunamis, make thunderbolts fall from the sky, cause volcanoes to erupt, and make the earth tremble. They can also heal fatal wounds in an instant and possess immortality magic. There are a total of four [Great Witches]."

Of course, the above description of strength refers to humans and witches. Please do not generalize to the great Kirieloids. They are just ordinary witches, with the strength of a stray dog ​​on the roadside.
