The situation is tense!
But that was all. After Xiaolin deliberately provoked Lisette, the two separated.
Did you think a fight would break out?
No, no, no, no matter how you think about it, it's impossible.
Although it was confirmed that Lisette was an automaton, he could not find the real Lisette and could not attack her.
Because once he kills her, it's easy for Felix to take the opportunity to counterattack. Based on the identity of the other party and the persona that he has been operating in the academy for a long time, several reasons can be compiled to arrest Xiao Lin.
It doesn't matter if there are doubts. As long as the [prisoner] is caught in the end, all problems will have reasonable explanations. Especially if Xiao Lin's admission application form is forged, it will become strong evidence for the other party to attack Xiao Lin.
Likewise, the opponent cannot take action.
In addition to not being completely sure, there is also a reason why they cannot reveal themselves as automatons, otherwise their plans will have unnecessary effects.
So after Xiao Lin left, she had no choice but to kick hard at the grass next to her.
Incompetent and furious belong to yes.
Now we have to see whether Xiaolin finds out the real Lisette first and exposes their conspiracy, or whether they forcefully pin unfounded charges on the [prisoner] first to clear up the relationship.
"Really, it would be great if [Five Vision Omnipotence] could see through the heart of the doll."
Xiao Lin couldn't help but complain softly.
————
As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Akabane Raijin came to visit, and he got straight to the point as soon as he entered the door.
"How's it going?"
"Ah, you are right, she does have a problem."
Akabane Raijin asked him to test Lisette. After all, it was the first time Xiaolin met her, so how could he deliberately provoke her without any reason.
It was Akabane Lei's reminder that allowed Kobayashi to use clairvoyance on Lisette to find out the key information that the other party was not a human being.
"Is it okay to just test her from now on?"
"You're right."
Seeing him putting his hand between his eyebrows and thinking hard, Xiaolin took the opportunity to give him a hint and said: "Akabane-kun, Felix once said that he hid his automaton in the [Locker], and there was only It can be opened with the [Master Key] kept by the Discipline Committee. If the current Lisette is an automaton..."
"————!"
Akabane Leizhen seemed to have thought of something.
[Locker] is a special safe for placing automatic dolls. It cannot be opened without a specific key.
During the time when [Demon Eater] was causing trouble, many puppet masters kept their automatons there, and the same was true for Felix, one of the thirteen people.
——That’s what the other party said.
This will raise a lot of doubts. If the current Lisette is an automaton, then whose automaton is she, who is the assistant to the Chairman of the Commission for Discipline Inspection? Where is Lisette's automaton? Where is she herself? What is Felix plotting again?
"Tsk. I'm going to investigate! Yeye, let's go!"
"Yes! Lei Zhen!"
After saying that, Akabane Leizhen hurried out with Ye Ye.
Probably going to the [Locker] to confirm something.
Xiao Lin, on the other hand, used the ability of [Five Visions and Omnipotence] in the dormitory to find the [prisoner] who was about to be charged with unwarranted charges.
——Charlotte.
From the beginning to the end, Charlotte was played by Felix, whether he took the initiative to approach her to gain favor, or deliberately had a headache about the [Demon Eater], or let Lisette induce her behind his back. , all of which made the girl fall into the trap he set step by step like a chess piece.
The indifference he showed towards Charlotte before was just to test whether the girl was out of his control, and when he found out that it was true, he inadvertently showed a proud mockery.
Because of this, Xiao Lin was so angry.
But the college is too big, and Charlotte is running around everywhere. It's hard to find her place in a short time.
The more you are afraid of something, the more likely it will happen.
An hour passed.
Before Xiao Lin noticed Charlotte's figure, she came to the door first.
Opposite the old door panel, the inexplicably clear voice of the dormitory leader came.
"Xiao Lin, I have your phone number."
"Okay, here we go."
When we came to the lobby on the first floor, the telephone was set up in front of the dormitory room. Xiaolin was very interested in modern products and thought that he could bring the old telephone back to Axel later.
But there are still things to do now.
When he picked up the microphone that had been placed for a long time——
"I'm sorry to disturb you at such a late hour. My name is Lisette Norden."
"...It's you, is something wrong?"
"I have something to tell you..."
She waited deliberately for a moment, her appetizing approach was very similar to Felix's. After hearing Xiao Lin's breathing gradually slow down, her voice came slowly from the phone, word by word.
"——We found a large number of magic circuits in Charlotte's room."
"…………"
The magic circuit, also known as Eve's heart, is as important as the heart of the automaton, and it is also what the [Demon Eater] has been hunting for.
I see.
Are they hinting to me that they (the masterminds behind the scenes) have set a trap for Charlotte to step into, so that I can get into trouble?
Lisette indeed thought so.
I thought that the man on the other end of the phone would be anxiously asking about Charlotte's safety, or he would be so angry that he would say indifferent and harsh words. Unexpectedly, he did not care about the important person in this matter, but another person——
"Akaban... no, Raijin Akabane and Yeye, how are they now?"
"You are such a cold-blooded man. You don't care about her, but you care about a man."
"If she was caught by you, you wouldn't call me. Well, Raijin Akabane and Ye Ye, how are they now?"
"Hmm, who knows. That man may have been seriously injured due to a sneak attack from behind, and he may be lying on a stretcher on the way to the infirmary. As for her doll, it may have been sanctioned by the disciplinary committee. "
"...I have to say, it's a very interesting guess."
Xiao Lin's tone was calm and calm, without any emotional fluctuations, but his expression had become cold, and the surface of the phone held by his right hand was slightly broken.
Still remaining calm, he asked:
"Then, I wonder if there is anything else going on with Miss Lisette? Didn't you call me to invite me on a date because the moon is beautiful tonight?"
"What if, I say, it is."
"Place."
"The last place we said goodbye today."
"I'll rush there now."
Xiao Lin gently put down the phone, walked out of the dormitory with his head slightly lowered, and went straight to the date.
————
When he arrived in the back garden, someone was already waiting there.
No, not a human being to be precise.
It was a fully armed automaton. If we really wanted to describe it, it could also be said to be a battle girl.
She was wearing ancient armor, holding a long sword in her hand, and her full-face helmet was full of aura, as if she was wearing a ghost mask.
Although she hid her body well by covering her body tightly, in front of Xiaolin, who has the [Five Visions] and can use the clairvoyance ability, she had already exposed her true face naked.
——Automata Lisette.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to dress up so grandly. It seems that you are looking forward to this date."
"…………"
The doll girl in front of her remained silent, but she raised the sword in her hand to Xiao Lin's throat.
It was obvious that she was not here for a date, but to do bad things.
"Hey Hey hey,
Is it really good? "
Xiao Lin was not afraid. Instead, he sighed and spread his hands, and said helplessly: "You can expose yourself so easily, or do you think you can hide your "intellectual" pretty face with just a mask? "
The word "intellectual" is very strong.
Unfortunately, the battle girl did not answer. Instead, she raised the long sword in her hand and slashed at Xiao Lin. The powerful and heavy slash seemed to cut him in two.
The attack was powerful but not dexterous enough, and Xiao Lin easily dodged it.
At the same time his mouth kept moving.
"Except for Liu Zi, this is the first time I have been liked by another female automaton, and they are still so entangled. I said, what is so attractive about me? Can't I change it?"
What responded to him was the fighting girl's more sharp slashes. As time went by, the attack speed gradually increased, and the angle of the slashes became more tricky.
Like a real master of swordsmanship, he dances the bright sword shadow under the bright moonlight, with a cold light that is full of danger.
But even so, she couldn't touch Xiao Lin's clothes.
During the battle, Xiaolin kept saying: "I originally wanted to give this opportunity to Akabane-kun. For some reason, I couldn't attract too much attention, so I took the initiative to withdraw from other people's sight. But you have a special interest in me. Inexplicable persistence, what is the reason?"
"...You don't know how to fight if you don't speak."
Seeing Xiaolin dodge the slash again, the battle girl couldn't help but sneer, her tone was extremely familiar.
No wonder she didn't speak, because if she spoke she would be exposed.
Xiao Lin ignored her and directly revealed the answer to the mystery, saying: "Because you are greedy for my body, you ****!"
"————!"
The battle girl's movements suddenly froze, as if she didn't expect Xiaolin to say such narcissistic words.
Xiaolin's statement is not entirely correct.
To be precise, she aimed at Xiao Lin's heart.
"Before I entered the academy, I intercepted a train with Akabane-kun. Although it only occupied a small space in the report, you still noticed it. Therefore, you had a misunderstanding - Xiaolin is actually an automaton. Although I have repeatedly stated that I am a human being, with the automaton Lisette in front of me, you are still more inclined to believe that I am also an automaton. Coupled with the exaggerated strength I have shown since entering the academy, you covet me even more The magic circuit (Eve’s heart), am I right?”
"…………"
She remained silent.
However, both sides know that this is the truth of the matter.
Xiao Lin was also surprised at first. The other party could have directly pinned the blame on the "prisoner" and won the final victory, but they had to take great risks to attack him when they won.
Even if there is a suspicion of taking the opportunity to eliminate potential enemies and pouring dirty water on the prisoners, Xiaolin clearly said that he would not participate in night parties, so he could not become a potential enemy.
Therefore the reason does not hold.
"But if we assume that you are a [Demon Eater], the reason for doing this becomes obvious."
Xiao Lin had a confident smile on his face.
The battle girl became more and more silent, and the aura on her body became more and more dangerous. It seemed that all the reasoning was correct.
"But you should have told me if you were greedy for my body."
Xiao Lin instead blamed the other party and said, "Although I can't give you my body, I can still let you taste part of it."
"Have you tasted part of it?"
"Yeah, part of it."
Xiao Lin lowered his head and looked at his pants.
"..."
"..."
Both sides fell into silence at the same time.
But then, the battle girl said with disgust and venom: "Don't talk in your sleep until you fall asleep, bug!"
The generous approach only resulted in scolding and violence from the girl. The long sword in her hand was swung airtightly, far more cruelly than before.
But that's all.
There's no puppeteer around
The automaton cannot use magic. Do you think you can defeat yourself with swordsmanship?
You look down on people too much!
Seeing that he was unable to attack for a long time, the battle girl also opened her mouth to try to disturb Xiao Lin, and said coldly: "You bedbug, if only you were as easy to deal with as that cockroach."
What she meant was that Akabane Raijin had been dealt with, and she wanted to use the other party as a threat to make Xiaolin panic.
Xiao Lin smiled instead.
"Hahaha - you know, the vitality of cockroaches is very tenacious. I believe that he will never remain silent like that."
"We've all been talking in our sleep, let's wait until we fall asleep...what?!"
At this moment——
There was a sudden earthquake, followed by a sudden gust of wind.
The crimson magic turned into a violent tornado and soared into the sky. The surrounding trees rustled, and the powerful pressure slowly spread, leaving people with lingering fears even from a long distance away.
As expected of an automaton produced by Hualiuzhai, its power is a bit exaggerated.
"Hahaha——, the situation of the battle has reversed, what should you do?"
Xiao Lin's nasty teasing followed.
The battle girl looked at the magic storm rising into the sky in the distance. Without any hesitation, she immediately distanced herself, soared into the sky and flew straight into the distance.
"Do you think you can escape?"
Xiaolin used both legs to exert force and soared into the air to catch up.
——————
The turmoil that occurred every night also disturbed another battlefield.
The [Prisoner] who was attracted by the bait appeared - Charlotte, the ten members of the Disciplinary Committee who surrounded her, and Felix, who had a sad expression on his face.
After feeling the pressure from a distance, the discipline committee members panicked.
But under Felix's command they calmed down and were then assigned to support the area where the riot was taking place.
Wait until everyone leaves and the surrounding becomes quiet.
Felix finally showed his usual smile and whispered: "In this way, we can have a good chat, Ciel."
"Felix..."
Charlotte felt a chill in her heart.
It was obvious that I could feel the warm smile before, but now it makes people scared.
She dried up her throat and asked in a hoarse voice: "...You can't believe that I am the [Demon Eater], right?"
"Of course, otherwise I would be very troubled." Felix gave an incomprehensible answer.
what does that mean?
Before Charlotte could ask questions, Felix spoke again: "I originally planned to let Xiaolin get rid of you, but that guy was too smooth. Fortunately, that guy was tricked out for you."
"...Xiaolin?"
Charlotte had a strong sense of foreboding and quickly asked: "What did you do to him?!"
"He was dealt with just now. My companions will help clean up the aftermath."
"You killed him?!"
"...I just destroyed him."
"Why……!"
"Because he has an excellent magic circuit."
What? Excellent magic circuit? What on earth is he talking about?
Charlotte couldn't understand it at all.
Another sentence quickly passed through her confused mind.
——Xiao Lin was deceived because of her.
She asked again: "Why, why do you do this?"
"...Sigh. I originally thought highly of you, but I didn't expect your brain to be so slow." Felix sighed and shrugged, with a mocking look on his face.
And an idea flashed through Charlotte's mind like a flash of lightning.
"You... took advantage of... me."
"Because it's such a coincidence, Ciel. If you want to hate, then hate fate. Hate that you and I are actually together in this year of demonic eclipse, studying at this school at the same time.
Courtyard. No... I just want to resent that your [Demon Dragon Roar] is so similar to my [Eating Demon]. "
Felix's words dealt a heavy blow to the adoring girl.
Fake, all fake.
Everything is carefully arranged by the other party. Whether it is the words said, the tenderness shown or the kindness released, they are all fake.
The girl's heart is in disarray.
When Charlotte was desperate, she felt the doll approaching her quickly. Felix raised his right hand and said excitedly: "Just in time! My automatic doll has arrived, and it's time to end this [Demon Eater] commotion." !」
The next second.
boom--
The automatic doll fell from the sky and simply smashed a deep pit into the ground. As the dust was flying, a figure slowly appeared in front of the two of them.
He stepped on the battle girl below him with an unpleasant smile on his face.
He greeted the two of them:
"——Hey, good evening, you two."
