I traveled through time and space as a villain and became her heart-stealer.

Lianna stared at Gu Qinghan in a daze, and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

"I have lost my memory of the past, but from the existing information, I can infer that I have hypnotized other people."

"Hohenheim once lived in the Empire of Pleasure for a period of time, using hypnotic magic to induce many beautiful girls."

"After stealing their hearts, he chose to come to the Kingdom of Pure Love to live an ordinary, everyday life."

"And now, Catalina wants to capture these beautiful girls and use various means to force them to confess the truth."

"As Hypnotist Hohenheim, even though I have lost my memory, I still have the ability to fight back in this situation."

Having said that, Gu Qinghan paused for a moment, and his eyes turned gloomy when he looked at Lianna.

"Remove the hypnosis from them, and erase all memories of me."

“This is the best way.”

"Just like I did to you."

Lianna stood there in a daze, biting her lip lightly as she thought of what Mr. Hohenheim had done to her.

This is indeed the case.

There are many excellent members in the Supervisory Detachment who possess scar magic, and perhaps they can retrieve memories.

Only by erasing his memory fundamentally can Mr. Hohenheim's safety be ensured.

However, when she heard Mr. Hohenheim confess that he had done many such things in the past, she felt uncomfortable.

He actually had such an experience before.

Gu Qinghan took a deep breath, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and looked towards the bottom of the Sober Spring.

Those glittering coins dimly illuminated Gu Qinghan's profile, as if they could dispel the gloom on his face.

The clear spring water may seem calm and peaceful, but in fact, there are undercurrents surging.

"Next, my situation will be more dangerous than before."

"On the surface, I worked with Katarina to capture the beautiful girl spy who invaded the Pure Love Kingdom."

"In fact, we all have our own agenda in secret."

"Katerina wants to secretly find the spy and force him to reveal evidence related to me so that she can convict me."

"I will use the intelligence from the Supervisory Brigade to find them first and then release them from their hypnotic state."

"This is a competition."

"The side that finds the Pleasure Empire's beautiful spy first will obtain the victory conditions."

"And I can't lose even once."

"I will erase the memories of all nine beautiful girls one by one, and then Katarina will conduct a second test on me with the Love Punishment Gun."

"The one who proved my innocence was none other than Inspector Catalina herself."

"And I will honorably accept her final judgment and become a good citizen loyal to the Kingdom of Pure Love."

Lianna stared at the person in front of her blankly, with a glimmer in her eyes.

"Can I... help you with something?"

After a long time, Lianna finally plucked up the courage, gritted her teeth and asked with a red face.

Gu Qinghan smiled slightly, and the smile on his face became softer.

In his eyes, the girl's eyes at this moment were full of persistence, just like many years ago.

"of course."

Gu Qinghan took a deep breath, gently took the girl's hand, and then his expression became serious.

"Miss Lianna, you are the only one in this world who is willing to help me."

"In the next period of time, Catalina will definitely send people to monitor me and prevent me from moving freely."

"As someone who has just been proven by the Punishment Spear, you will definitely gain Katarina's trust."

"I hope you can do the things that I can't do in person."

"Buy herbs, scout the enemy, and find the location of the beautiful girl spy."

"Can you do it?"

The moonlight shines on the two people, and the faint fluorescence makes people's hearts soften.

The Sober Spring is still gushing, and the fascinating mist and beautiful night view seem to stay at this moment.

After a long time, Lianna raised the corners of her lips slightly, and raised her head with a smile.

"Don't talk to me like that."

After a pause, she blushed and spoke awkwardly:

"You are the only one who is willing to lend me a hand when I am in despair."

“You are special.”

Having said that, Lianna stood on tiptoe, so fast that even Gu Qinghan didn't have time to react, and kissed him gently on the cheek like a sparrow pecking at rice.

Gu Qinghan could not help but stand there in a daze, staring at the girl in front of him.

"So, the master just needs to order me to do it."

The girl smiled sweetly, and the silvery moonlight poured down, becoming her most beautiful background.

"Lianna will definitely finish it."

She stuck out her tongue, looked at Gu Qinghan with a playful smile, then grabbed his hand without saying anything and walked towards home.

The night is hazy, lighting up the way we came.

As long as there are people around, she has a place to go back to.

Gu Qinghan stood there in a daze, letting the girl hold his right hand. He looked at the girl's excited back, as if he had traveled back many years to see her first time leaving the village.

That year, the girl stepped out of the village alone and chose to bravely look for love.

And today, she finally set out on the road back and never looked back.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan's eyes softened involuntarily. Looking at the girl's sweet smiling face, his hands clenched involuntarily.

There is a way back.

No matter when, it is enough to warm people's hearts.

This is true for Lianna, and it is also true for him.

As long as you have a home to return to, no matter how much suffering and pain you go through, you don’t have to take it to heart.

In that little home, there are people who understand you and are willing to stay.

But what if such a person never existed?

Why is it necessary to remember those painful memories?

Gu Qinghan held Lianna's gentle hand and walked beside her. Suddenly, he felt a dull sense of loss from the bottom of his heart.

"Mr. Hohenheim, what's the matter with you?"

Beside her, Lianna tilted her head in confusion, still maintaining the same expression as before, and blinked.

Gu Qinghan couldn't help but be stunned.

Then, the emotion disappeared.

"It's nothing, don't think too much, let's go home early." Gu Qinghan smiled bitterly and shook his head, wondering what was wrong with him.

"Hold my hand."

He smiled indifferently, saw the girl's delicate profile in the moonlight, and embarked on his final journey home.

This is the end of one story and the beginning of another.

The protagonist of the story is a villain named Hohenheim.

And beside him, there are girls who understand him.

(Volume 1, end.)

PS: After the end of this volume, there will be a few chapters of extra stories about Lianna and Catalina, which will be released simultaneously with the second volume~

Extra: Nameless Tavern 02

However, to Olivia's surprise, Lianna did not agree with her.

"No."

Lianna sighed lightly, a gleam in her eyes, and slowly spoke:

"I no longer doubt my inner feelings."

This made Olivia's eyes light up.

The proprietress raised the corners of her lips slightly, and looked at Lianna with a smile, waiting for the girl's next words.

"When he sighs, I feel distressed; when he smiles, I feel that nothing is difficult."

"I once lost my way home, but he left a light for me, letting me know that there is still a place for me in this complicated world."

"In the Kingdom of Pure Love, this kind of feeling can only be given one name, right?"

Lianna stared blankly at the empty corner of the table, motionless.

The orange magic fell, illuminating the side of her face, and she could vaguely see the glittering light in the corners of her eyes.

Beside her, Olivia raised the corners of her lips slightly, savoring the youthfulness and fragrance that only a young girl could have.

It's great to be young, Olivia thought.

"In that case, what is it that makes you feel sad?" The proprietress smiled.

Lianna's body trembled slightly, and then she slowly came back to her senses from her memories, and then showed a trace of helplessness.

"Because I don't know him well enough."

She sighed lightly, then slowly said:

"He's a big playboy. Not only that, but the girls he's had sex with in the past are coming back for him."

"And I just found out about this three days ago."

"Those people are very powerful. They came all the way to Beloved City to find him. They must have had deep feelings for him."

“I never knew about this.”

Olivia blinked, and the corners of her lips, which originally had a hint of playfulness, now seemed a little stiff.

"This……"

With a light sigh, Olivia didn't know how to comfort Lianna, so she could only pick up a glass of fruit wine and fill it for her.

"Although it is indeed very sad, there is no need to worry too much about it."

Olivia sighed lightly, then forced a smile and said, "There are still many good men in the world."

"No, Miss Olivia, you are mistaken."

Before Olivia could finish, Lianna suddenly spoke and interrupted her.

Not only that, Lianna reached out and took a glass of fruit wine, drank it all, and then smiled very brightly.

"I don't feel sad, on the contrary, I feel very happy."

Olivia blinked.

?

She didn't seem to understand the meaning of Lianna's words, and for a moment she suspected that she had heard it wrong.

"Um, sorry... could you please repeat that?"
