Knight Asylum

"It's so noisy," Qiao curled his lips unhappily, crossed his arms over his chest and thought seriously for a while before snorting, "Red is not that kind of person."

"But he must prefer someone who's caring, right?"

Metzger delivered a fatal blow. Qiao wanted to refute but didn't know what to say. Just when Qiao was about to lose control, a phone call came in.

Qiao glanced at the caller, clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction, then turned around and picked up his backpack.

"Is there any work coming?" Metzler stopped.

"Yeah, an annoying guy."

"I'll go with you," Metzl slowly stood up and shook his hair with his hand, "You are my ally now, I can't let you waste your energy on some boring things."

Chapter 316: Did the pig eat the cabbage, or did the cabbage fly into the pig's face?

In the airship, inside the Gurongi stronghold, Baluba sat at the bar, shaking the wine glass with her fingers, her eyes were blurred but deep. Dorudo, who was also from the La Group, was sitting at the bar, flipping through the poetry collection in his hand.

"How's the investigation going on with Gaia's memory?"

Dorudo paused while flipping through the poetry book. "It's more difficult than I thought. To use an analogy, it's like the ink dripped into a dye vat. After a little stirring, it's completely mixed together. It's more reasonable to think about how to adapt to this result rather than thinking about how to find the root cause."

"In other words... Gaia's memory has been completely integrated with the human race as a whole?"

Baluba groaned softly and then laughed distressedly.

"Should we say that humans' ability to adapt is really exaggerated, or that humans have long been prepared to accept power, and now it's just the right time?"

"Baruba, it's the same as that time," Dorudo moved his right hand for a moment, and the page in his hand fell. The eyes between the white scarf reflected the contents of the page.

The primitive man waved his weapons and gradually turned into a demon.

A little crystal clear wine spilled from the glass onto the table, and Baluba remained silent.

Once upon a time, the Gurongi were also human beings, but one day they found a certain mineral, and wielded weapons made of that mineral to expand their brutal killing game with the most sacred attitude, and eventually their appearance changed.

To put it in modern human professional terms, their genetic sequence has changed.

It has to be said that what Dorudo said hit the nail on the head about what she was most worried about. Humans are craving Gaia memories, just as they craved those weapons in the first place.

If all human beings become strong people who fight for their own selfish desires, then what should those strong people who only fight to protect the weak do?

The melodious music interrupted Baluba's thoughts. Baluba frowned and was about to hang up the phone directly, but when she saw that the caller was Xiaoxing, she sighed and answered the call.

"Hello? What's the matter?"

"I'm going on a date with Red."

"boom--"

Baluba crushed the wine glass in her hand on the spot, and the blood-red wine splashed onto Dorado's face with splattered fragments, staining the white scarf with a glaring red.

"Wait a minute!" Baluba suddenly stood up, walked back and forth several times, took a deep breath, and asked slowly.

"Did the pig push the cabbage, or did the cabbage just fly up and hit the pig?"

"Well... no matter what you say, you shouldn't describe the modern Kuuga as a pig," Dorudo took off his scarf with a helpless look on his face and used it as a rag to wipe the red wine off his face.

It was the decision of the La Group to have Xiao Xing give birth to Red's offspring to continue the Gurongi clan. He was naturally aware of this, but he was not responsible for the issues here.

"Well, I don't know if it counts as that, but... for a period of time from now on, Red will be my boyfriend. Ahem - well, let's talk about this in person."

After saying that, Xiao Xing hung up the phone.

"win……"

"win……"

"Won!!!"

Baluba raised her fist in great excitement.

"Well, they're just a boyfriend and girlfriend. In this day and age, people break up very quickly," Dorado, who was wiping the floor with a scarf, couldn't help but complain.

"That's not the point. Can't you hear it? Xiao Xing, no, it's Gallimard's voice," Baluba licked her lips, "That's the sound of someone being serious."

"Let me tell you, even if we take a step back, I think the only modern Sora I would like is Xiao Xing," Dorudo, who had wiped the floor clean, stood up slowly.

"This...is indeed the case."

Dorudo's words calmed Baluba down.

However, despite being calm, Baluba still had a strong confidence that gave her an advantage over me, because just at that moment, she overcame the biggest problem, which was that Xiaoxing had ideas, but they were hidden very deeply, making it almost impossible for her to take the initiative.

"I'll go and give Xiao Xing some advice right away," Baluba straightened her clothes and turned to leave.

"Hello, hello, what about Gaia's memory?" Dorado raised his hand and waved.

"I'll leave it to you. If all else fails, go tell him that the existence of the museum is preventing Kuuga from becoming stronger."

Baluba paused and glanced sideways, her eyes extremely cold.

After Baluba left, Dorudo scratched his hair, crossed his arms over his chest, and tilted his head back slightly. "That's what she said, but I don't think it has come to that point yet, so don't do anything. This will prevent Red from becoming stronger."

The young man standing in the corner raised the corner of his mouth slightly and turned around slowly.

"N Daguba Jeba."

----

Xiao Xing said that she still needed to prepare. Reid and Tezuka Umiyuki were not wooden men. Seeing that Xiao Xing was shy and didn't dare to look at people, they knew what this preparation meant, so they simply left to give Xiao Xing time to prepare.

"But, a date..."

Red put his hands behind his head and walked slowly.

"Are you nervous?" Tezuka Umi walked beside Reid and smiled slightly, "Is this your first time dating such a beautiful girl?"

"That's a very subtle way of putting it. But having said that, Tezuka, you, are you planning something?" Red raised his eyes. "You don't think I'm stupid, do you?"

"Hahaha - how could that be? I just went with the flow. There aren't many opportunities to solve two, no, several things at the same time."

Tezuka Umi no Yoshinori smiled and waved his hands without any flaws.

Red, who had no way to deal with Tezuka Umiyuki, slumped his shoulders helplessly. "There are so many missing people, and there's no pattern to it. There are people of all ages and professions."

"But, there is definitely something wrong here, right?" Tezuka Umi crossed his arms. "In detective novels, there are often plots where a group of people are killed to cover up the real target. Do you think so many missing people are to cover up the real target?"

"That's what I thought, but—"

Before Reid could finish his words, Tezuka Umiyuki suddenly stopped, looked around, and his gaze rested on the glass not far away.

"Is it the mirror world?"

Seeing Tezuka Umi staring at the glass with an unusual expression, Reid was stunned for a moment and then immediately reacted with an extremely solemn expression.

"Yes, a mirror beast appeared."

Tezuka Umiyuki retreated towards the alley. Knowing that Tezuka Umiyuki was looking for an opportunity to enter the mirror world to stop the mirror beast, Red immediately moved sideways to protect Tezuka Umiyuki.

"Can you sense a mirror beast preparing to attack someone?"

"Yes, if a Mirror Beast appears near me and is ready to attack, I can hear the sound of the Mirror World," Tezuka Umiyuki paused and added, "Before I got the Knight Card Box, this didn't happen. Maybe it's not just me, other Mirror Knights can also hear the sound of Mirror Beasts appearing."

Reid raised his brow slightly.

This statement has never appeared in the previous timeline.

Chapter 317: Heavenly Tree Flower

After watching Tezuka Umi enter the mirror world, Red raised his hand and scratched his hair.

He also wanted to enter the Mirror World to help, but only the Mirror Knight could enter the Mirror World. Because he lost the help of Shirou Kanzaki, the originator of the Mirror World, Servius Tulia couldn't even figure out the Knight Card Box, and Shirou Kanzaki... probably wouldn't give him the Knight Card Box.

Red, who could only wait, hesitated for a while, then squatted in the corner with his head down and began to recall the missing person file.

A date is definitely necessary. Firstly, it can solve Xiaoxing's difficulties, and secondly, it can catch Sano Mitsuru. As long as Sano Mitsuru is caught, many things will become simple. Of course, he does not expect to get much useful information from Sano Mitsuru.

Just like the previous two timelines, Sano Mitsuru seemed to be moved by his money and stood on his side, but he still had several tricks up his sleeve and had no intention of providing him with important information. Maybe... he even planned to stab him in the back at some point.

Before that, you have to think about how to conduct research on a date.

"that--"

There are a lot of missing persons, almost everyone. It is no exaggeration to say that their social circle may cover the entire [S·L]. Theoretically, you can meet friends or family members of the missing persons by just walking around. Just as Tezuka Umiyuki analyzed, killing a group of people in order to cover up the real target creates the illusion of indiscriminate killing.

In fact, he also thought that this was an indiscriminate killing at first, but the Gaia memory that was not for sale in the museum appeared in the hands of the Mirror Knight Tezuka Umiyuki, which seemed a bit strange.

"that--"

A gentle shake interrupted Red's thoughts. Red looked up blankly, and what he saw was a pair of slender legs wrapped in white silk over-the-knee socks, a student skirt that cleverly covered the thighs, and above that was a clean student sweater. His sight gradually moved upwards, and a smiling face with cute dimples appeared in front of him.

"Ah - have you come to your senses? Ahem -"

The girl took a few steps back, coughed lightly a few times, and then became quite lively, raising her index and middle fingers to make a "yeah" gesture.

"I don't know what happened to you, but is there anything I can help you with?"

Sunny and lively, she was just like a little sun, warming people's hearts. Red couldn't help but smile.

"If you say that, aren't you worried that I'm a bad person and will take this opportunity to make some excessive demands on you?"

"My brother said—"

The girl shook her head, and as if imitating the person she trusted most, she raised her right index finger and pointed it toward the sky.

“Your desire to help someone is the right one, and you should never doubt it.”

"If you encounter a bad guy..."

The girl stretched out her voice and grinned.

"Then give him a hard kick!"

The familiar actions and similar catchphrases immediately reminded Red of someone.

The chief of heaven.

There shouldn't be such coincidences in this world.

"Um, what's your name?"

"Heavenly Way Tree Flower!"

The girl turned around lively and made a "yeah" gesture.

"As expected - judging from your uniform, you should be a high school student at Amanokawa High School. Why are you here? Although it is the weekend, the school rules of Amanokawa High School should prohibit students from strolling in the Xingxiu District," Reid stood up with his hands on his knees, tilted his head lazily, and his eyes turned to the glass next to Tiandao Shuhua.

Although he had no way to directly know the location of the Mirror Beast through the Knight Card Box like Tezuka Umiyuki, his perception ability was constantly improving. If the Mirror Beast was close enough, he would be able to sense its presence.

A mirror beast came near the flowers of the Tiandao tree.

He didn't think that Tezuka Umiyuki would make such a mistake, so there must be more than one mirror beast appearing this time.

"Ah, about this matter," Tiandao Shuhua put her hands on her hips and lowered her head, "Recently, my dear and reliable brother enrolled me in a cram school. I had to go to the cram school on weekends. I was just a little careless, which caused my grades to drop a little bit."

"What about your brother?"

Red and Tendo Souji had only met twice, and the total time they spent together was probably no more than twenty minutes, but just from these twenty minutes of understanding, Red could be sure that Tendo Souji was not someone so heartless as to let his sister go to the Xingxiu District alone to attend cram school.

"Well, my brother said he had something to do and asked me to wait for a while. I just came out to buy some water," Tiandao Shuhua raised her hand and pointed at the building opposite. On the glass on the fifth floor, there were the words "Wangzichenglong Tutorial School".

However, because the glass was moved, it now becomes "Wanglong Chengzi".

"Uh - this cram school seems a bit unreliable," Red couldn't help but complain.

"I felt the same way at first, but the teacher was surprisingly good. I feel like I can challenge myself when I fill out my application next time."

The flower of Tiandao Tree put her hands on her hips and smiled lively and brightly. Just looking at her made people unable to help but smile. The warmth of the little sun seemed to be able to wash away the dirt in people's hearts.

But the bloodthirsty beast didn't care.

A big mouth silently stretched out from the glass and bit towards the brilliant smile of the Tiandao tree flower.

Sensing Red's will, the Aguru Belt emerged, the spirit stone in the center lit up, and tiny arcs of electricity emerged, trying to transform Red's body, but Red remembered the high school girl who screamed when she saw him as Ultimate Kuuga, so he forcibly suppressed the transformation and quickly reached out to turn the Heaven's Path Tree Flower towards the direction of the cram school and gently pushed it forward.

"Then don't hang around outside."

The flower of the Tiandao tree jumped forward a few steps and stood in the sunlight. The mirror beast that came out opened its mouth and bit Red's shoulder fiercely. Its sharp claws tightly gripped Red's body. Its tail swung out from the mirror and hit Red's legs, as if it wanted to make Red lose his balance and drag him into the mirror world in one breath.

Red, who did not transform into Kuga, was just an ordinary person. He was hit by the combination of skills of the strong and powerful Mirror Beast. Even if he reacted and transformed immediately, he would have been pulled into the mirror world.

It should be like this.

The sharp teeth that could easily bite through a concrete pillar could no longer move down the moment they pierced Red's clothes and landed on his skin. The tough tail hit Red's calf firmly, but it was the mirror beast's own tail that was bounced away.

Red's eyes gradually turned towards the mirror beast that was trying desperately to drag him into the mirror world.

Apparently, he is the target.
