"I agree to go with you." Si Que said lightly.
"So when do we set off?" Boss Rabbit asked without surprise.
"I told you, wait until I finish my business here." Si Que looked at the bright red sun in the distance: "Don't worry, I will go with you sooner or later. Luo Vasa is too small to accommodate me."
…
When Yamada-cho woke up, he saw countless pairs of eyes.
"Si Que, your sister is awake!" A girl with crystal hair poked her head out.
"Si Hua is awake!" a red-eyed boy said excitedly.
Si Que lifted the curtain and walked in: "You all go out." At Si Que's urging, more than a dozen people left the room in a mighty manner.
Once Yamada-cho realized that this was a civilian area, he was a little scared... He escaped? He really escaped from Bai Qiu, the executioner.
Si Que sat down and stirred the spoon: "It is seven o'clock in the morning. Last night, one hundred and thirty-six civilians died on No. 13 Street in the Casero District. Only a dozen people escaped secretly through the underground passage."
Yamada was stunned... Many of the people he met last night were dead? They did nothing wrong, but were brutally slaughtered.
"What does Wangcheng say?" Yamadacho said in a hoarse voice.
Si Que paused for a moment, tapping the spoon against the bowl. "The royal city said that they are investigating, but it is clear that this is a massacre against the Creators. Those silver-armored knights are said to be subordinates of Vivian, the Scientific Faction Councillor of the Nalan Court."
"No! It was obviously Bai Qiu...!" Yamada Machi raised his voice: "It was that guy Bai Qiu who killed him!"
Si Que stared at Yamada Machiichi with his golden eyes:
"sister."
"Bai Qiu is the favorite to win the Creator Contest. He naturally represents the Creator faction."
"If it is proven that Bai Qiu was the one who led all this, the public's anger will be directed at the Creators. If we miss this conference, I don't know how long we will have to wait before Creation becomes a concept on par with science. Nothing can go wrong in the Creator Contest, and the Creators cannot be blamed."
"Do you remember? This massacre is aimed at the Creators. The silver armor on the knights represents the scientific community."
Yamada-cho understood a lot in an instant, and a deep feeling of powerlessness engulfed him.
Si Que stirred the spoon:
"Bai Qiu... is worthy of being the most favored follower of the Demon Mother Goddess. His methods are much more cruel than mine. I tried to stop him, but I ignored his determination. He wants to make creators become 'witches' and let the hunters be called 'executioners'."
"You know what? Right now, most of the outside world is condemning the scientific community, saying that they shouldn't be targeting civilians, and that their competitive tactics have become vicious."
There was neither praise nor criticism in his voice, as if he was simply commenting on a trivial historical event.
Yamada Machiichi wanted to convince himself that this was a necessary sacrifice to advance an era, but he still couldn't accept it. Perhaps he was still a naive child at heart.
...This is not the end. This thought suddenly occurred to Yamada Machiichi. Bai Qiu will launch another massacre, and it will be a massacre without any evidence.
In the eyes of the executioner, human life is just a lever to balance the political power.
“Report! Let’s report!” Yamada Choichi suddenly grabbed Si Que’s wrist. “Report to the royal family, or to the [Dawn Knights] who advocate light, or the [Starry Corridor] who enforce justice, or the [God’s Ode] who praise the radiance, or even the [United All Beings] on the side of order, or the holy [Church Mountain]… There must be a force that can use more gentle means! Many people live in the royal city, and we can’t just watch them being dragged into the massacre!”
It's impossible for Si Hua to accept this. I'm just following my character setting...Yamada Machi thought to himself.
Si Que stared at him for a while, and suddenly said softly:
"...Machiichi Yamada?"
What?
Yamada Machi thought he had misheard, but Si Que quickly looked away: "Okay, go ahead. There is still a whole day before the Creator Conference. Maybe you can really save innocent people."
Yamada Choichi took action immediately, he wanted to contact more forces.
Soon, he arrived at the royal city in a steam carriage, showed Si Hua's Royal Engineers Medal, and successfully met a pair of expatriates from the Nalan Court.
In the reception room, the man with a beard was older and his name was Aokexi. The woman had a ponytail and seemed to be the man's junior and her name was Shurong.
Taking into account Baiqiu's identity as the creator, Yamada Machiichi did not reveal Baiqiu as the mastermind behind the scenes. He only secretly revealed the movements of Baiqiu and Xiting, hoping to restrict their actions.
"Don't worry, protecting innocent lives is the responsibility of the Nalan Court. We will investigate immediately and track down the blonde woman you mentioned." Shu Rong responded without hesitation. She seemed very angry and stamped her feet, saying, "What a group of inhumane executioners. We must arrest them and bring them to justice!"
The older Oxy also made his assurance: "A woman with long blond hair, a small face, and a tall stature... I seem to have an impression of her. Thank you for the information, Miss Sihua."
As Si Hua's sister, she didn't need to be questioned about the source of the news. Yamada Choichi left the reception room smoothly and breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, he went to see Queen Esdani, hoping that she would track down Bai Qiu. After receiving a positive answer, Yamada Choichi relaxed a little.
He knows that history cannot be changed, but he will do it whether he follows his character or his heart.
"Your Majesty, please keep a close eye on this guy. I'll be going back first." Yamada-cho saluted.
"Okay. I'll keep an eye on Bai Qiu." The queen nodded with a smile.
