Lu Chen gave Milan a hint, and the boss was politely asked out.

"So, why are those people chasing you?"

Lu Chen looked at Mia and asked.

"I saw it the other night..."

Now thinking back to what happened that night, Mia still felt terrified, but she looked at the boy opposite her and gradually calmed down. The boy had defeated such a terrifying monster.

So she composed herself and said: "...I saw it, a pirate ship."

"Pirate ship?"

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. This was really a ridiculous answer, as if someone told him that Nidhogg's true identity was Snow White, and that the Dragon King was a dwarf.

This is Nantes. Even though it was once a prosperous city of pirates, it is now the 21st century!

In this area, pirates have long been a thing of the past.

"I, I'm not lying, please believe me."

Looking at the eyes of the boy opposite, Mia timidly defended, "I really saw it."

"Okay, okay, don't get excited. I believe you. Besides the pirate ship, what else did you see? Is there a group of people with golden eyes? What's the other specific location?"

Lu Chen raised his hand and said comfortingly.

"In the lower reaches of the Loire River, I was too far away to see clearly, but there was indeed a group of people...like you, their eyes lit up. They were talking about something at first, and then they started arguing, and finally it turned into

We fought, and then the pirate ship appeared, and I ran away. I don’t know what happened next.”

Lu Chen thought for a moment after listening to Mia's words. This was indeed a major breakthrough. At least he knew that it was a pirate ship that abducted the school director.

But there's something wrong. This news is crucial, but it doesn't seem to be crucial. Why did those people want to silence Mia?

Anyway, at least Lu Chen couldn't find Elizabeth through such vague information.

Elizabeth was taken away by water. He had guessed this before. At present, it was only specific to the pirate ship, and he could not pinpoint Elizabeth's possible current location.

But those people looking for Mia don't seem to simply want to meet with them and send out ridiculous invitations. This is part of the "game", and Mia's news is absolutely crucial.

It's just that he currently lacks other clues... Alice's clues.

"By the way, what are you doing there at night?"

Lu Chen looked at Mia in confusion, this was not a place where a girl should go at night.

When asked this question, Mia looked a little embarrassed and said hesitantly: "There are fewer people over there, and the road is very wide, so I went there to practice driving... I was supposed to take the test today, and I failed three times before.

, I want to work hard.”

After hearing this, Lu Chen glanced at Mia and said with good intentions: "I suggest you not take the driver's license test."

Not to mention that this girl seemed to be in conflict with the driver's license test. She failed it three times. For the sake of the safety of the French people on the road, he thought this was a friendly suggestion.

Mia smiled reluctantly, she really didn't want to take the driver's license test again.

"Let someone from the execution department pick her up later, and I'll go out and talk to Su Lin."

Lu Chen said to Miranla who turned back and carried several plates of raw meat.

"Where will I be taken?"

Mia asked a little uneasily.

"Don't worry, it's a safe place that will make you forget these terrible things."

Miranla smiled softly and spread the meat on the oven one by one. She knew that the president was not full yet.

"Will you forget... these?"

Mia glanced at the black-haired boy who opened the door and walked out, feeling a little lost.

"Stop watching, you're out of luck."

Miran rolled her eyes and then added: "I have no chance either."

Mia looked at Miss Mirala in front of her and was a little confused. She originally thought that Mirala was Lu Chen's girlfriend.

Can such an outstanding woman have no role?

"Is that the girl he texted?"

Mia asked curiously, after she calmed down, every girl has a gossipy heart.

On the other side, Lu Chen walked out of the store and looked at Su Lin, who looked melancholy in the cold wind.

"How's it going? Do you have any idea?"

He asked for the password.

Su Lin shook his head, answering Lu Chen's question, and then sighed and took out a small black box from his breast pocket.

"What's this?"

Lu Chen glanced at it.

"The thing that killed Alice... No, I can't figure it out now. Maybe she just reached the range of her speech spirit and launched an attack on me."

Su Lin sighed.

He recalled the battle again and again in his mind, but in the end he couldn't explain it. Alice actually launched the attack when he raised his hand, and he did not stimulate the opponent.

But why?

After so many years of being together, have you never trusted me?

Lu Chen took the black box that Su Lin threw to him. When he opened it, he found that it was a diamond ring. He immediately understood what was going on, "Do you regret it?"

"Regret? Regret what?"

Su Lin smiled mockingly, "I just regret that I didn't say something."

Then he glanced at Miranla who was grilling meat in the store and said: "She talked to me on the way. She said that I am not proactive enough as a man. In the current parlance of our country, I am a straight man."

"What's wrong with being a straight man?"

Lu Chen shrugged. He had also been evaluated in this way by Brother Fingel, but he felt that there was nothing wrong with him. On the contrary, the female students in the Lion Heart Club also respected him, and Eri did not dislike him.

"Maybe my wording is not accurate. There is nothing wrong with a straight man, unless you meet a straight woman."

Su Lin smiled reluctantly.

"Is Alice the straight girl?"

Lu Chen opened a bottle of Corona, took a sip, and then opened another bottle and handed it to Su Lin.

"Haha, yes, Alice is indeed a straight woman. We have been on missions together over the years and have often been together. She seems to only regard me as a good and trustworthy brother..."

He blew on the bottle, paused and continued: "No, now it seems that she may not trust me, otherwise she should believe that I will not kill her."

"Why do you like her?"

The clue was gone, and Lu Chen didn't mind chatting for a while.

He had read Alice's file, and it was true that as Su Lin said, she was not like a girl. She was warlike, strong, decisive in killing, and pursued power... According to the secret files of the Executive Department, there were records of Alice having control over someone.

Violent blood technology.

"She saved my life during the war practice class, and I became familiar with her after joining the Lionheart Club. It doesn't seem like I need many reasons to like someone. I just always thought she was cool. Besides... she's pretty pretty, right?"

"The last reason is quite true."

Lu Chen smiled.

"Commissioner Lu, do you have a girl you like?"

Su Lin suddenly changed the topic.

Lu Chen was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes."

"Then did you confess your love to her?"

After saying that, Su Lin shook his head and smiled, "It seems that only girls should express their love to you, Commissioner Lu. I should ask you in turn."

However, Lu Chen shook his head and said, "None of them."

"why not?"

Su Lin turned to look at this boy who was five years younger than him.

Lu Chen and Su Lin looked at each other for a few seconds, then turned their heads and said, "I don't know... maybe it's because of fear."

This was something he had never wanted to admit. He had had friendships on the battlefield in his previous life, but love was something new to him and he didn't know how to deal with it.

He now gradually understands his feelings, but he doesn't dare to break that membrane rashly.

"If they hadn't heard it face to face, I'm afraid no one would believe that the invincible S-class ace could be afraid."

Su Lin was also a little surprised, "So you should understand why I didn't confess, and I was also afraid. If I was rejected, it might be difficult to maintain the silent understanding now. What a terrible thing it would be.

Ah, do you think so too?"

Lu Chen didn't speak, which was regarded as acquiescing to the other party's statement.
