The scorching sun ruthlessly sprinkled the scorching light in the sky, shining on the street full of hustle and bustle.

On the street where pedestrians came and went, Noah and Tina were walking here together.

"Hmph"

Tina seemed to be in a very good mood. While humming a song, she held Noah's hand like a little girlfriend. Her face was no longer confused when she was daytime, nor did she no longer feel cold when she was night, and she was just as cheerful and happy as an ordinary little girl.

Since leaving Saint Curie, Tina has been in this state.

Noah let Tina hold her hand while she was in a very good mood. Looking at Tina, who was in a very good mood, she couldn't help but smile and said this.

"What makes you so happy?"

"Of course I went out with you brother." Tina answered without hesitation.

"I'm very happy whenever I think of my brother being by my side."

"Is that true?" Noah's smile on her face somewhat restrained and she sighed.

"But we are not coming out to play, but we have serious things to do?"

"It's okay." Tina's mood did not decrease at all, and she smiled at Noah.

"As long as you can be with your brother, you will be fine wherever you go."

As he said this, Tina tightly held Noah's arm, as if she wanted to increase the persuasion of her words, her childish pretty face was filled with a happy smile.

Looking at Tina like this, a sense of apology emerged in Noah's heart.

It was obvious that he brought this child into the fairy tail (airy_tail) and changed the child's life without authorization, but he left her willfully and asked her to fight for the career and dreams he had left behind, which made Noah really feel a little sad.

Although this is also for Tina's goodness, Tina herself is very satisfied with her current life, Noah feels that she still owes this girl a little.

Thinking of this, Noah began to look at Tina seriously.

Compared with three years ago, Tina seems to have not changed much now.

A long silver and golden shawl with gentle and elegant hair.

A pair of blue eyes are as gorgeous as water waves.

A pretty face that is still childish and still as cute as a doll.

A dress embellishes the charm of a girl.

Except that she is slightly taller than before, Tina has not changed much.

After all, the gap between a ten-year-old girl and a thirteen-year-old girl is not very big. Even if there is a saying that a girl changes at an age, Tina has not reached that age. After two or three years, the changes will probably be much bigger than now, right?

However, compared with the confused image she was when she first met and the cold image she was when she was in the first battle, Tina is undoubtedly much brighter than before.

At least, this was the case when I was with Noah.

So, at this moment, in the eyes of outsiders, Tina is a very cute foreign girl, attracting the attention of many passers-by.

"That kid is so cute..."

"yes…"

"And it's a foreigner, it's rare..."

“It’s like a doll…”

"I really want to hug you..."

"That's it..."

"However, why do you think you've seen this child somewhere?"

Noah heard the whispers of the passers-by around him clearly, and he secretly cried in his heart.

Unlike when he was only active in the inner world as a killer, Tina is now a well-known ace of fairy tail (airy_tail), and the strongest starter in the world.

Under such circumstances, Tina has also been on TV many times and must have attracted a lot of attention.

If you are recognized here, it will definitely be a little troublesome, right?

After all, although the Tokyo area is an ally of the Goblin Township, there are still many humans in this area who hate the damned sons.

Who knows if there is a brain that suddenly comes out to cause trouble?

Thinking of this, Noah patted Tina's hand and spoke softly.

"Let's speed up a little..."

Upon hearing this, Tina was slightly stunned, but she immediately noticed the situation around her and nodded in understanding.

However, Noah still clearly noticed the slightest loss in Tina's eyes.

Seeing this, Noah smiled helplessly and touched Tina's head.

"Don't look disappointed, we'll just come out to play together next time."

Tina's eyes lit up, and then she smiled again, and took Noah, speeded up and walked forward.

Not long after, the two of them arrived in front of a hospital.

It was an affiliated hospital of a university.

Under Tina's guidance, Noah walked into the affiliated hospital and was immediately penetrated into the tip of her nose by the rich smell of disinfectant.

In the hospital, many doctors in white coats and nurses in nurse uniforms saw Noah, but when they saw Tina beside Noah, their expression immediately changed slightly and they chose to stay away without any trace.

It seems that the doctors and nurses here have some understanding of Tina's identity.

Tina seemed to be used to this, so she came to the counter with a quick look and asked the counter lady.

"Sorry, I'll find a Doctor in Muro."

"...The doctor is in the old place." The counter lady seemed to have dealt with Tina for the first time, so she said directly.

"Just go straight to it like before."

"I understand." Tina nodded, then returned to Noah's side, held Noah's hand, and smiled again on her face.

"Brother, come with me."

Noah naturally had no objection, and followed Tina and headed towards the stairs to the north.

I don't know if it's Noah's illusion.

From here on, the number of pedestrians seems to have become much smaller.

And at the end of the corridor at the entrance of the stairs, on the ground, a square cave sits there.

At first glance, it's like a trap.

But upon closer inspection, there is actually a rather steep staircase inside the cave.

Standing in front of the stairs, Noah felt a strange smell floating out of it, making Noah's brows slightly frown.

Unfortunately, Noah is not unfamiliar with this strange smell.

Because that is the unique smell of corpses.

"Tina..." Noah said a little strangely.

"Is this a morgue?"

"Yes." Tina smiled bitterly.

"Doctor Muroto usually lives in the morgue."

Noah's mouth twitched.

The world's strongest mind lives in the morgue?

Which hobby is this?

With this idea, Noah followed Tina down the stairs and entered an underground passage that was somewhat like a haunted house.

And at the end of the passage, a door carved with an exaggerated demon statue appeared there.

Looking at the door, Noah began to confirm that the other party was definitely a weird person.

Only Tina walked forward with a look of pretentious look on her face, pushed open the door and walked in.

What appeared before my eyes was a dim but surprisingly vast room.

The room has an operating table, office desk, precision instruments, blackboards filled with formulas, etc., which gives people the feeling not like a morgue, but an operating room and a research institute.

Noah could even see that there were embalmed corpses lying on the operating table here, as well as cultivation tanks filled with corpses of gastrula animals, which was creepy.

If this is hell, then someone will definitely be willing to believe it?

Noah couldn't help but say something.

"Will anyone really want to live here?"

"It should...no?" Tina's tone was full of uncertainty.

"But the doctor is a very strange person."
