As Toma's voice fell, the surroundings seemed to fall silent, and everyone stopped what they were doing in unison.

This... this retainer of the Kamisato family, what did he just say?

Missing...?

Suddenly hearing this somewhat unfamiliar word, even in the castle of Kamisato Ayato, he had to frown.

"Furthermore...Master of the family, there is no sign of fighting where Wanyu and the others are staying."

Toma also had a look of confusion on his face. Those resistance soldiers may be unpredictable and cannot be completely trusted, but Maplehara Manyo...he is the successor of "Isshinden". Regardless of his true character, he

He is also a trustworthy person.

"..."

Ayato was silent for a while, then slowly shook his head.

He knew very well that the rebel soldiers were indeed ambushing that place. There was no possibility that there was no one there from the beginning... Then, they should have been attracted by something...

Manyo did not leave any marks, which may mean that he was in a hurry when he took action and did not have time to leave any marks.

In other words... the target was extremely conspicuous, and Man'yo was sure that reinforcements would arrive soon the moment he took action...

But obviously...

Thinking of this, he glanced at the square below the castle tower again, but the place was still empty, not even an animal could be seen.

"and..."

Just when everyone was deep in thought, Toma suddenly lowered his voice and spoke again: "What's even more strange is that we didn't see Ningzhe and his friend Abedo in the Central Commercial Street... According to the staff at the scene

It seems like they never showed up from the beginning."

"What?"

If Ayato was just a little surprised when he heard the news about Manyo before, now he really feels a little troubled.

He had no doubt that Ningzhe took this matter seriously. If he had not planned to intervene, he would not have started the layout from the beginning, let alone enter the castle tower to confront General Raiden face to face.

But he didn't show up.

"In this case, maybe things are not as simple as we thought..."

Thoughts kept flashing through his mind, Ayato murmured to himself.

"Mr. Kamisato, I think staying here is not the right decision. Maybe we should choose to take the initiative."

Not far away, Xinhai obviously felt something was wrong. She even came directly in front of Ayato and said in a serious tone: "We have not received any news about our compatriots on the front line... At the same time, I believe you also

Didn't get any news."

"Yes, Miss Coral Palace."

Hearing this, Ayato did not intend to deny it and directly agreed.

"Then...I will take the soldiers to the cultural exchange meeting next, and I will leave the rest to you."

Xinhai had obviously made a trade-off, and when she saw Ayato agreeing, she put forward her plan.

"...Of course. Since Miss Coral Palace has a plan, I will naturally not stop it."

Ayato's expression remained unchanged and he nodded slightly without saying anything to stop them.

"..."

Seeing the reaction of the leader of the contemporary society, her heart flickered, but she didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, and then left here with Wu Lang and other resistance soldiers.

"Master of the family..."

At this moment, only Toma and Ayato are left in this place, and the [Final Episode] ninjas originally promoted by the club have also been sent out long ago.

"Thomas, what do you think is so strange about this matter?"

After a moment of silence, Ayato stretched out a hand and caught a fallen leaf, his voice extremely calm.

"I think the strange thing is the disappearance of Ningzhe and Wanye. Neither of them are reckless people. They should not act like this when they suddenly disappear and interrupt the plan."

Hearing Ayato's question, Toma was stunned, and then said seriously: "The strangest part is that they must have gone to the agreed place according to the plan, but for some reason they disappeared in an instant...

"

"That's right..."

Ayato also nodded, and Toma's words were indeed his doubts.

Although Wanye may not have had much contact with him, he has a very good relationship with Ningzhe. And judging from the character of Ningzhe... Although he is from Liyue, once he takes over something, he

You won't give up easily.

only...

How to explain the current situation?

The Fools executives [Doctor], [Rich Man] and [Master] who originally appeared in the plan...none of them showed any signs of leakage, not even the ordinary Fools members were seen...

The first two can still be explained, but even the [Master] who likes fighting the most did not appear, which is a bit strange...

You must know that not long ago, he appeared in public and even directly wounded the shogunate general Kujo Sora...

etc...

Somehow, Ayato seemed to have caught something.

Executives who didn’t show up and those who showed up to great fanfare...

"Could it be that..."

Ayato looked at the castle tower not far away. The sky was gray, as if there was going to be a heavy rain...

"Kamizato-sama!"

At this moment, a slightly hurried young man's voice came over, as if he was finally relieved to see Ayato.

"Um?"

Hearing this, Ayato and Toma turned to look at the visitor almost at the same time, showing a somewhat surprised expression.

"Shikanoin...how do you know this place?"

Seeing the auburn-haired boy who was still panting as he hurried over, Ayato frowned slightly and his tone was a little strange.

Luyeyuan is indeed a part of their plan, but he should not appear in this place at this time...

"Master Shefengxing, let me ask a question first..."

After taking a breath, Kano Yuan did not choose to answer Kamisato Ayato's question, but asked himself: "According to Ningzhe, he should attract the attention of the fools at the cultural exchange meeting now.

..Is it right?"

"Yes, that's right."

Ayato seemed to have guessed something. Even if the matter was confidential, he did not hide it at all.

"But, but he doesn't appear in the Central Commercial Street now, not even Teacher Baichao, right?"

"As you said."

"Sure enough...it is indeed those devices..."

After hearing the accurate reply, Dean Luye let out a long sigh, then his eyes narrowed, and he spoke extremely seriously: "Then I probably know where [place] they went..."

Hearing this, Ayato did not express his position quickly, but remained silent for four or five seconds.

During this period of time, Kanoin did not speak, he was waiting for Ayato's answer.

"Is it really the machine under the cliff?"

"Yes, that's right there!"

Hearing Ayato's words, Kanoin nodded fiercely, and then showed a somewhat surprised expression.

This social executive actually guessed the truth through only such a few clues?

Really...hum, I am still slightly better.

"Then, let's set off now."

Keenly catching Kanoin's expression, Ayato just shook his head and smiled, then glanced in the direction of the castle tower.
