Kurotogi Kan had no objection to staying at Ryougi's house for one night.

Not to mention Ryougi Shiki's parents, he was already very familiar with the butler, Mr. Aki Takashi.

"Who is that——!"

Suddenly, Reinhard's eyes fixed.

After the voice fell, his figure had disappeared from the original place. Just by stepping forward, a violent shock wave was formed due to the super high speed, blowing Kurotogi Kan's foot unsteadily as if the mountain was shaking the earth.

When Kurotogi Kan's foot finally recovered from the suffocating momentum, Reinhard had already stepped out of the bamboo forest with a small figure.

As efficient and domineering as always.

Although he had long known about the existence of magicians that transcended common sense, when Kurotogi Kan's foot looked at the huge pit left on the ground by Reinhard's heavy step, he really began to realize that it seemed that all the mysterious things he had come into contact with so far were nothing. The person in front of him was completely above ordinary people.

Even the law, the police, and even the entire country would be insignificant in front of this person.

"This is..." Aozaki Touko looked at the thing in Reinhard's hand.

"There is no breath of life." Reinhard picked up the thing in his hand, "But there was undoubtedly someone spying on us just now."

With the help of the weak light at the door of Liangyi's house, Kuroto Kan also saw what it was, a small, doll-like thing.

"This is a puppet familiar." Aozaki Touko took it from his hand and looked at it carefully, "Thank goodness you can find that all parts except the eyes are dead... Maybe it followed us all the way here."

"In this case, it is necessary to inform my master." Reinhard seemed to blame himself.

He didn't know the purpose of the master's coming to this world, but since he didn't wait for him to come back, it meant that catching the criminals was just a small matter, so he didn't wake up the master who was already resting.

However, if someone was watching him, he couldn't be sure of the severity.

"Tsk tsk." Aozaki Touko tsk tsk twice.

It's not that she hasn't seen loyal servants. In those big families, there are slaves who can sacrifice their lives for their masters.

But most of them were just boring puppets.

They simply couldn't compare to the knight in front of her who was enough to inspire admiration from everyone.

So, several people walked into the house together.

When they heard the footsteps of some people approaching, Shen He was actually not asleep yet.

Because Shiki took off her clothes and lay in the sheets beside him, but just turned her head like a puppet and looked at him silently, saying nothing and doing nothing.

What does this mean?

After Shen He realized that Reinhard was coming over, he felt relieved in his heart. If the whole night was like this, it would be a bit unbearable.

"It seems that something has happened, get up."

"Tsk."

Ryougi Shiki made a low and meaningless sound, but also stood up, turned his back to Shen He and quickly put on the kimono.

So the kimono is like this.

Sometimes it is no different from a bathrobe, and you can wear nothing inside.

Shen He put on his clothes immediately, and then opened the door, and found that in addition to Reinhard, Aozaki Touko and Kurotogi Kan were also outside.

"What happened?" The one who asked was Shiki, who was tidying up the sheets in her room.

Kurotogi Kan'ya felt as if his heart was being squeezed tightly, but in the end, it could only turn into a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth.

It was only a year.

What he waited for was the gradual estrangement of this life.

"Reply to the mistress." Reinhard was almost flawless in etiquette. "The criminals have been caught, but I found that someone is monitoring this place."

"Really?" Shen He also noticed the little doll in Reinhard's hand.

Even if he didn't know the details, he could roughly guess who it was.

Araya Soren.

A magician who has lived for two hundred years, the biggest villain in the whole plot, his goal is to obtain Ryougi Shiki's body that can connect to the root.

Speaking of which, before crossing over, Shen He saw a saying on the Internet that the reason why Kurotogi Kan'ya was so concerned about Ryougi Shiki in high school was because he was subconsciously influenced by Araya Soren, but this statement has not been officially confirmed.

This made Shen He look at Kurotogi Kan'ya more.

"Is this the killer?"

After Ryougi Shiki arranged the sheets, she also walked to the door, but her eyes were looking at Bai Chun who was tied up beside her.

Her eyebrows were slightly frowned, and she had a vague impression of this person.

"This is our senior in high school, Bai Chun·Rizuki." Kuroto Kan'ya reminded in a low voice.

"I remember." Ryougi Shiki seemed to be interested suddenly, "He confessed to me."

"Really..." Kuroto Kan'ya never knew such a thing.

However, when I think of the scene I saw at senior Bai Chun's house, I don't feel strange. Anyway, the final result is that Shiki will be rejected mercilessly.

"Why would an ordinary person become a killer?" As expected by Shen He, Shiki's interest is completely different from what ordinary people imagine.

"Wake him up." Shen He gestured to Reinhard.

Bai Chun was actually awake all the time, but Reinhard used the secret technique of the Sword Saint family to make him unable to move.

At this time, he just patted him lightly on the back, and Bai Chun seemed to break free from his restraints and vomited on the ground.

Shen He raised one foot and stepped directly on his shoulder, forcing him to look up at everyone.

"Shiki..."

As expected, he saw Ryougi Shiki at first sight.

But there was no joy in his eyes.

Instead, it was full of fear, fear of death.

"Answer my question." There was no trace of murderous intent in Shen He's eyes, only calm coldness, "How did you become like this?"

"It's Mr. Araya, it's Araya Soren! He made me like this!" Bai Chun wailed with tears streaming down his face, "I don't want to, I don't want to kill anyone! I just can't control myself... That     's right , it's not me who killed anyone! It's just Origin! Save me, save me, Hei Tong!"

Shen He frowned slightly, moved his toes, and directly choked Bai Chun's throat, making him unable to speak again. It's really unbearable.     Shen He, who knew the whole story, naturally understood what was going on with this man. He was just an abandoned child abandoned by Araya Soren. He kept killing people because he was addicted to the power and desire brought by Origin. The explanation he just said was just a sophistry. He was the only one who wanted to kill people.     However...     Shen He couldn't help but feel angry. Such a scumbag actually captured Shi in the original story and did this and that. Even Hei Tong Gan himself had a leg and an eye crippled by him.     Why bother.     Thinking of the story he had seen before, Shen He even felt resentful towards Hei Tong Gan, and then a dagger appeared in his hand.     "Kill him, Shiki."     Shen He said calmly, handing the dagger to Shiki.     "Oh, I don't want to kill people like this."     Shiki seemed to have some complaints, but still took the dagger.     If it was a pure killer, then he would indeed be her prey, but the one in front of him was just a weakling who even blamed the murder on himself.     "Wait, wait!"     Kurotogi Kan'ya's already clenched heart beat again.     Shiki held the dagger and looked at him with some confusion.     "Shiki." Kurotogi Kan'ya's voice was trembling, "You, can't kill people."     "Oh?" Ryougi Shiki raised his eyebrows, "Why?"     "Why? Don't you know it very well? Don't you understand the pain of killing better than anyone else? How can you kill people like this?" Kurotogi Kan'ya stared at Ryougi Shiki in a daze.     "......" Shi seemed to be a little stunned, and suddenly smiled, holding her stomach and laughing, "Haha, hahahaha, it's so funny, Kuroto, have you always looked at me like this? The pain of killing? You know my hobby, I almost killed you at that time, didn't I?"     She seemed to be really funny, and even laughed a little tears in the corners of her eyes.     Shen He just watched silently.     Kuroto Kan'ye and he had different views on Shi, but he believed that his view was correct.     "That's different!" Kuroto Kan'ye's eyes were distressed and sad, "Everyone has different hobbies, Shi, you just happen to have a hobby of killing, but you have been enduring it. Didn't you also endure not killing me at that time?"     "......"     Shi gradually put away her smile and opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.     At that time, Kuroto Kan'ye was the only special person to her.     It was true that she had the intention to kill, but she couldn't do it.     But now in front of Shen He, even with her limited common sense, she knew that such words could not be said casually.     "I know the you who didn't kill me three years ago." Kurotogi Kan'ya regarded Shiki's silence as proof of what he said, "You are very gentle, always very gentle, how can you be a murderer? Shiki, no matter what, killing is something you absolutely cannot do!"     Shen He, who had been silent all the time, couldn't help but look at Kurotogi Kan'ya more.     Is killing something that Shiki cannot do?     It seems that he had misunderstood before. This person may think that killing is to abandon Shiki's original intention and let himself sink into the hell of killing impulse, so he would not hesitate to say "I will not forgive you if you kill someone" to stop Shiki from killing Bai Chun.     "It's really funny." Shiki seemed a little bored and didn't even want to explain anymore.     The dagger in his hand swung down with a swift flash, without opening the Death Eye, and without the slightest hesitation, he was going to kill Bai Chun in front of him easily.     However, when the tip of the knife was about to touch, it suddenly stopped.     Both hands could no longer exert force.     Of course, it was not because of Kurotogi Kan'ya's words that she couldn't do it, but simply because her wrist was caught by Shen He.     Shen He stopped Shi. Bai Chun, who was already scared silly, had not yet recovered from the terror of being on the verge of death. Hei Tong Kanye breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Shen He with gratitude.     "I roughly understand your feelings for Shi, but I have some questions to ask you." Shen He took Shi's hand in his palm, gently pinched it to appease her dissatisfaction, and then looked at Hei Tong Kanye, "Even ordinary people, when facing someone who wants to kill them, will fight to the death to kill the other party. The so-called war is a large-scale aggregation of this phenomenon. According to you, if Shi meets someone who wants to kill her, what should she do?"     "..." Hei Tong Kanye opened his mouth slightly, and finally, he just said, "You can run away."     "What if it's someone stronger than her?" Shen He didn't wait for Hei Tong Kanye to think, and asked immediately, "What if it's an enemy who will be killed by the other party if you don't fight to the death to kill the other party?"     "..." Hei Tong Kanye didn't know what to say.     Because he remembered that three years ago, Shiki flew onto a Mercedes-Benz vehicle like a butterfly, and felt so desperate and sad that her heart was about to stop beating.     He didn't want Shiki to get hurt.     "Whether in the world of ordinary people or in our world, weakness is the original sin." Shen He's eyes gradually became cold. "Shiki's physique and ability determine that she will always be in danger, and her personality also determines that she will not want to rely on the protection of others. Therefore, as a lover, I will first put her safety in the first place, rather than restricting her strength."     "..."     Kuroto Kan'ya's body was trembling slightly.     He didn't know what Shiki had experienced in the past year, nor did he know whether Shiki would really be in danger in the future as the other party said.     "But..." He couldn't help but say.     "Also, you got it wrong." Shen He interrupted him again mercilessly, "Shiki is indeed not a murderer, and she is indeed very gentle, but her gentleness is not for everyone, and there is no need to endure her murderous intentions for some people, and she will not suffer because of killing those people - in the final analysis, no law can give people like me a safe shelter."

Almost in one breath, he said everything he wanted to say.

This is the difference between his and Kurotogi Kan'ye's perception of Shiki.

Killing innocent people without reason will naturally make people feel guilty. Ordinary people except the killer will be tortured for this. Shiki has such an impulse, but she will endure herself.

Because of her gentleness.

She has grown up in this city with the urge to kill until she was seventeen years old, but she has never killed anyone. It is because of this gentleness that she has endured until now.

Until she met Shen He and met those enemies who wanted to kill her, she didn't have to endure.

Proper venting, on the contrary, alleviated the urge to kill.

It made endurance less uncomfortable.

However, Kurotogi Kan'ye in front of him had no chance to know and understand these things. He was just staring at Shen He in complete shock. He

wanted to refute, but he couldn't.

The reason was just because of Shen He's last sentence-no law could give a person like him a safe shelter.

Shiki decided to follow him.

He didn't even know the environment that Shiki would live in in the future, so what position did he have to make the choice of not killing for Shiki?

On the other side, Shen He had already let go of Shi's hand.

A cold light flashed.

Before Bai Chun could even wail, he died.
