Black Swan continued to comfort her, "I'm really sorry, I have to leave for a while... Death is still wandering around, I have to personally check the safety of Miss Jizi and Miss Sanyueqi, and give them a reminder...

I'll leave the pioneers to you... Miss Huang Quan."

After saying this, the Black Swan disappeared in front of the two of them.

Huang Quan looked at Qiong who was still standing there blankly, not knowing how to start. After some hesitation, she decided to start.

"I'm sorry this happened... I was so focused on the girl that I neglected... it was my indecision that cost her her life... I'm sorry."

"This is not your fault." Qiong exhaled towards the sky. This moment perfectly explained what it meant that there is no greater sorrow than a dead heart.

"If." Huang Quan lowered his head, "But if I choose to draw my sword at that time..."

Suddenly she fell silent. She swallowed back the words she hadn't said before finally squeezing out an apology, "I'm sorry, I... I have no choice."

Qiong clenched his fists tightly, and one could even hear the sound of bones rubbing against each other.

“It’s urgent to find out what happened.”

Huang Quan nodded, "Yes... We will. But the time has not come yet. Before the "hunt", we should open our eyes and think about where the real enemy is hiding and how to fight against it...

Don't let pain control your thinking, pioneer. Maintain yourself, and you will stay on the right path.

Someone once warned me like this… "There is no need to show mercy to your enemies. That would be cruel to yourself. But you must recognize who the real enemy is…"

And, you must understand the meaning and price of swinging that knife. This is the only advice a person with a lot of blood debt can give you. "

Qiong turned his head and looked into Huang Quan's eyes.

"Well, I see."

[Don't be sad, Brother Qiong. We understand how you feel.]

[I didn’t want to cry at first, I can’t bear to see this kind of scene! ]

[Woo woo woo...]

-

Before Huang Quan finished speaking,

The black swan just happened to appear.

"——You two, I'm back. Miss Himeko has something to tell you... There is bad news and good news."

Then she handed over a memory bubble and motioned Qiong and Huang Quan to press their foreheads against it.

The two did as they were told, and a bone-chilling chill penetrated their bodies before forming a clear image.

Qiong saw Ji Zi and San Yue Qi together and was stopped by the family.

Black Swan is beside them, but the family doesn't notice her.

At this moment, Ji Zi's voice came, "I understand the situation. Please be sure to evacuate the pioneers to a safe place. If you have time, you can also investigate the firefly first. Meet at the "Watch Boy" statue later."

The screen went black, and the memories in the memory bubble ended there.

"So, I'm going to take you two back to reality at Miss Himeko's request. I'm glad to see that you're all right. Let's go and talk when we're somewhere safe."

Huang Quan: "Ms. Black Swan, aren't you going to open a... portal, or something like that?"

Black Swan sighed, "Well... I don't recommend that. His mental state is not stable yet, so we should try to avoid the *rough* movement just now.

And - while we evacuate, we can still do more for Miss Liuying, right? There are still some traces of her left around here. Let them become your "memories" before they disappear completely. "

Huang Quan echoed, "If we can conduct an investigation along the way, that would be great."

"Let's go, we have to find another way..."

"Sorry, could you give me a few more minutes? I...have something unfinished."

Huang Quan turned around and walked to the place where Liuying disappeared.

Qiong's body shook, as if his chest was stabbed again.

Huang Quan stopped, pursed his lips and lowered his eyes.

After a while, she bent down, seemed to be holding something with her hands, and stood up again.

The light that shines like a firefly slowly blooms in her hands.

"May death end your long dream..."

"To lead you back to... the world of sanity."

[I still haven't recovered from this breath.]

[I really cried. 】

[This paragraph is really heavy, really heavy. ]

[Mihuoyou, can you please be a human being? I beg you to be a human being, can you please? ]

-

Suddenly, Qiong noticed a flash of light out of the corner of his eye.

He leaned over to check and saw half of the phone lying on the ground, with an unsent message remaining...a photo in which two people were smiling happily.

That was the photo of him and Liuying on the rooftop, with Liuying holding up three fingers.

However, the camera focused on Qiong's palm.

The next moment, the phone completely dissipated and disappeared into a dream bubble.

Qiong smiled and shed a tear.

[Your Excellency's swordsmanship is excellent! Excellent swordsmanship! ]

[You don’t have to cry in the previous part, but I really can’t hold it back here. ]

[The photo has also disappeared, I haven’t sent it yet! 】

[Whose additional attack has such high damage? ]

[Hahahaha, hahaha. I'm going to explode with Mihoyo. Give me back my firefly.]

【Give me back Tingyun as well! 】

[It’s too exaggerated. It’s really too exaggerated. ]

[Who is the screenwriter? Who is the screenwriter? 】

[I don’t know. I didn’t use the original name, but a code name.]

What is the code name?

【Roast chicken! 】

【Ah!!!! I’m going to eat him! 】

[Me too, I left my brother and I exploded with Mihoyo! ]

-

"Let's go." Huang Quan came to Qiong and said softly.

The Black Swan had already left first, "This direction - please follow me."

The three of them walked together all the way to the elevator entrance.

Black Swan looked around and said, "What's going on? There's a sudden... heat in my memory?"

Huang Quan also tightly grasped the sword in his hand, "You also discovered it. It seems like something is burning..."

Along the way, the three saw the ground was covered with the charred remains of monsters, with tiny sparks remaining, so the culprit was probably not far away.

At this moment, the three of them became alert.

And there are dangers everywhere here, so I decided to investigate the traces of wreckage first.

The three of them could see that the monster was basically killed instantly with one strike, and it was accompanied by high-heat energy and flames.

[Another powerful enemy appears? ]

[High fever? Flames? Why the hell have I seen this before? ]

【I remember, Sam!】

[It seems to be true! ]

[As mentioned earlier, Sam is here too.]

[Alas, what's the point of Sam coming? Firefly is gone! ]

【Don’t mention it, bro.】

-

"Something's wrong. These traces were left not long ago. Someone just left here... Could it be related to what happened just now?" Huang Quan connected Liuying with the culprit.

Black Swan shook his head. "It's hard for me to make any inferences based on just a few clues."

"Listen to your intuition. After all, you said...memories don't lie."

“From the memories of these remains… the man was tall and much stronger than an adult male. His methods were quick and decisive, and he always killed people with one strike—perhaps he was a mercenary or a killer.

He came in from the door on the lobby side and headed deeper into the hotel. In that case... he should have seen everything that happened before...

I take back what I said before. We have to rush to the memory area where Miss Liuying's figure is imprinted as soon as possible. With this friend's style of doing things...

If that was his destination—there wouldn’t be any clues left at the scene.”

When Qiong heard this analysis, his eyes became fierce.

There was no conversation along the way, and the three finally arrived at the area mentioned by Black Swan.

Next, the Rememberer will reproduce the memories related to fireflies for the two.

At this moment, the phantom of the firefly appeared again.

"The thing I encountered with Qiong at that time...if I'm not mistaken...it must be related to the "Watchmaker"."

Huang Quan glanced at Qiong and said, "She mentioned your name."

Black Swan nodded. "You call her that behind her back, so it seems like you have a pretty good relationship. She seems to be sharing her discovery with someone, and... it's related to the Watchmaker."

Huang Quan continued, "She doesn't know yet that she will become a victim..."

[Don't use the knife, Sister Huang Quan! I beg you. ]

[The invisible blade is the most deadly! ]

[I really don’t want to say it anymore.]

[Hahahaha, I got stabbed so many times in just a dozen minutes. ]

-

Qiong followed the phantom of Firefly without saying a word.

Throughout the whole process, Black Swan and Huang Quan cooperated with each other to analyze everything.

Black Swan gave his own analysis at this moment, "From these few words, it can be inferred that Liuying's companion betrayed her halfway and locked her in this room alone, while he himself disappeared... Why?

She said that the deal was related to a "watchmaker" - involving a watchmaker would touch the bottom line of many people.

Maybe he wanted to embezzle the inheritance, maybe he wanted to make sure there was one less person who knew about it, maybe... there were deeper *secrets* hidden in this memory area, and in order to catch the big fish... he needed floating bait."

Huang Quan echoed, "You mean... Firefly?"

"This is just a worst-case scenario. But think about it, if the person who started all this is nearby, why would he let us search everywhere? Unless...

Unless he has something more important that he needs to - or is confirming."

Finally, the three of them returned to the hall again.

Black Swan smiled slightly, "It seems someone has been waiting for a long time. Are you finally going to step on the stage... "Star Core Hunter" Sam."

Qiong looked at Sam with glared at him while holding the bat.

Huang Quan took a step forward and warned, "Be careful."

Sam slowly turned back and put down the monster in his hand that had turned into charcoal.

He scanned Huang Quan and Black Swan, "A sea ranger... and... the Rememberer."

Then he stretched out his right hand and threatened, "Just leave now, and no one will get hurt. Otherwise... you will all die."

It was obvious that the three of them had no intention of retreating.

Sam suddenly jumped up high. "The detective game is over. You shouldn't be here. I will... set the sea on fire. When you return to reality, remember to tell everyone that it was the Star Core Hunter who sent you on your final journey."

boom--

There was a raging fire all around.

The next moment, Sam flew towards Qiong as if trying to catch him.

Unfortunately, Huang Quan appeared in front of Qiong in an instant, and then swung a knife, separating Sam and Qiong.

Qiong was about to step forward to help, but was stopped by Black Swan, "Leave this stage to them, dear."

Then you are teleported to another dimension by the Black Swan.

In the blink of an eye, Qiong had arrived at an unknown area.

A familiar figure seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

Shajin stood up from the sofa and said, "What a great show it was."

【? ? ? 】

【? ? ? 】

[This paragraph contains a lot of information! ]

[It's not that we are all pretending to be nice, right? 】

[Fuck, all of them are jumping in this wave? ]

[Where did this come from? Is this still a web drama? Is this really not a scripted murder? ]

[I feel like it's Werewolf? ]

[I haven't gotten over the sad atmosphere yet, why are you starting to rack my brain? ]

【ah! ! ! ! 】

[Can you please stop looking at this? I can’t stand it. ]

【I beg you to stop updating this season. 】

-

"Thank you for your hard work, Rememberer - it's a wonderful way to drive the tiger to devour the wolf." Gold Dust smiled at the Black Swan. "When I first saw the rangers and hunters gathered together, my heart was nervous... I didn't expect you to successfully provoke a fight between them."

"As agreed, I bring the child to you. Deal done."

Qiong turned around and glared at Black Swan, "You!"

Sha Jin patted Qiong's shoulder, but Qiong pushed him hard.

He laughed, not surprised. "Haha, it seems our friend the nameless guest hasn't figured out the situation yet. Don't worry, I'll explain it to you.

In conclusion, my friend, you have this young lady to thank. Far from plotting against you, she saved you... from the hands of that "Sea Ranger."

Qiong frowned, not knowing how to start.

Shajin obviously expected Qiong to have this expression.

"That's right. I just like this kind of surprised expression. My friend, let's be frank now. This woman named Huang Quan is far from being as simple as you think. She is not a sea patrol ranger..."

The next moment, his expression became extremely serious.

"She is a messenger, she brings death and the end."

Qiong immediately responded, "No, Huang Quan is at the scene, it can't be her."

"On-site? What on-site..." Shajin looked at Qiong with interest, "No way... Oh my God - this is even more interesting."

"Let me tell you something about the company, my friend. Do you know the "Duke of Hellfire" - Afrit of Tophet?"

Qiong's mind flashed back to a memory in the Black Tower space, "I fought with him before."

Sha Jin raised his thumbs up. He was very good at bringing emotional value to others. "Okay, you are worthy of it! Let me make a long story short... He and his followers formed the "Eternal Fire Residence" and regarded Nanook as their benefactor.

They burned, killed and looted everywhere, practicing the will of "destruction", and even spared no effort for other annihilation gangs.

I don't know what went wrong with the family's brains, or if someone was interfering, but these guys actually received an invitation. The Yonghuo Mansion certainly wouldn't refuse, and they came with great force, vowing to burn the star of the event into a sea of fire...

But don't worry, they won't show up. Do you know why?

—Because Afrito is dead."

【Ahhh, I need to grow my brain! 】

【Why did the plot take a sudden turn for the worse? 】

【Why is that? 】

[Fuck, this is a really huge amount of information. ]

[Well, now no one can be trusted except the train crew! ]

[Space Werewolf Killing, officially begins! ]
