You Can Call Me Visas

For the Somu City, the night was longer than expected.

In the first half of the night, the unprecedented torrential rain brutally lashed the ancient city, silencing the entire city.

In the latter half of the night, the rain suddenly subsided, and the entire city became noisy during what should have been a quieter time.

After a sudden gathering, countless Rhine Knight rushed nervously toward their Great Cathedral; the sheriff, awakened by the commotion, muttered "What are these guys up to?" before turning over and going back to sleep; an elderly man with gray hair pulled a cart out of the city, the white cloth on the cart conspicuously displayed; in the Small Church, a mother held her suddenly recovered child and wept uncontrollably, while the Father, who was being thanked repeatedly, smiled and nodded, a hint of doubt flashing across his face.

All of this flowed through those star-like pupils, finally settling in that small inn in the deep alley.

The woman, recovering from a serious illness, held the sleeping girl in her arms and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes.

The woman would occasionally raise her head and gaze into the depths of the alley, as if waiting for someone's return.

"Would you like to go in and take a look?" Bai Wei asked slowly.

Ulu didn't speak, as if he had completely vanished.

But Bai Wei knew that Ulu was still there. Although he was also surprised that Ulu had managed to hold on until now, the last spark deep in his soul was indeed still burning.

It just takes a little patience.

After an unknown amount of time, Ulu finally replied, "Ah... no need, I've already seen... what I wanted to see."

Bai Wei did not insist.

This mutilated body had reached its limit, Bai Wei that Ulu didn't want it to appear in front of that woman and that girl, so just watching it like this was enough.

Bai Wei also knew what he wanted to see.

It's right in front of us.

After watching for nearly half an hour, Bai Wei finally heard a sigh from the depths of that soul.

"That's enough, that's enough," Ulu said softly. "I... should go."

Bai Wei didn't speak; he knew that Ulu hadn't finished speaking.

This time, Ulu didn't keep him waiting long. "I... suddenly remembered, on our first day in this city... you took me to the Great Cathedral and told me the murderer was there... At that time, I thought the murderer was High Priest Heli, and later, I thought the murderer was Archbishop Ke Li... But now that I think about it, none of them are true. The murderer you're talking about isn't a living person, but that statue..."

Ulu paused.

"The murderer is Rhine... right?"

Bai Wei remained silent, but this was tantamount to acknowledging Ulu's statement.

"Ah, I should have thought of that, I should have thought of that..." Ulu said softly, his voice so soft it seemed like it would disappear in the next second, but he still mustered his last bit of strength, "Visas-sama ... I want to make one last deal with you."

"You have nothing left to trade with me."

Ulu suddenly realized. "Ah, yes..."

He seemed somewhat regretful.

"Yes, I have nothing left to trade with you."

Bai Wei was silent for a moment before saying, "But if it's not too much trouble, I can help you with it. If it's too much trouble, I'll refuse."

"Killing Rhine... is that a troublesome matter?"

"No."

Ulu laughed, seemingly having already guessed what Bai Wei would say, "In that case... then please help me... kill Rhine."

"Good."

After receiving Bai Wei's promise, the spark deep within his soul emitted a final glimmer of light before quickly fading away.

"I..." Ulu said softly, "Still died in the past."

"No, Ulu."

Bai Wei raised his head and looked at the distant horizon, where a ray of light pierced through the dark clouds.

"Not the past, but the future."

Ulu gave no response; the last glimmer of light in the depths of his soul had been completely extinguished.

But if you get close, you can still feel a trace of warmth from that void, proving that the fire once burned here.

Bai Wei stood there for a while before speaking softly.

Goodnight, Ulu.

After saying that, he turned and left.

Kaiya on the bed suddenly raised her head and looked into the depths of the alley once again.

But still, nothing can be seen there.

"Is it an illusion?"

She murmured softly, then suddenly felt a dampness on the back of her hand and looked down.

They found Liya in her sleep with tears streaming down her face.

"Lord Jie La Er, please explain why you were at the West Cathedral last night."

"I have received an invitation from your Bishop Keli."

"When did you appear at the church?"

"At 8:57, three minutes earlier than the agreed time."

What did you see when you got there?

Jie La Er looked up at the blue crystal behind the interrogating Knight. The crystal emitted a faint light, giving people a drowsy feeling.

"Your Archbishop Ke Li's body. I know what you want to ask, but I wasn't the murderer. When I got there, your Bishop was already dead," Jie La Er said calmly. "And the time has come."

The interrogating Knight was slightly taken aback. "What?"

"According to the 'Four Teachings Declaration,' you can restrict my freedom for a maximum of twelve hours without solid evidence." Jie La Er tapped the ticking mechanical watch on his wrist. "The time has come, and I have no obligation to cooperate with you any longer."

"Lord Jie La Er!" The Knight slammed his fist on the table and stood up. "Do you think this is still a normal situation? Our Bishop has been murdered!"

"Yes, that's why I'm willing to cooperate with you." Jie La Er slowly stood up and then easily tore off the handcuffs binding him. "But now the time has come."

After saying that, Jie La Er walked towards the interrogation room. His thick frame and half of his mechanical limb, which was shimmering with light, made the Rhine Knight dare not stop him.

But one of the Knight stepped forward and said, "But you haven't answered the most crucial question directly: why didn't you follow our instructions and get off the train halfway?"

Jie La Er turned and glanced at the Knight, his intensely imposing gaze causing the Knight to instinctively take two steps back.

"I've already answered that question," Jie La Er said calmly. "Because if I hadn't gotten out of the car, the child would have died."

With that, Jie La Er walked to the door of the interrogation room, Open the door, and tried to leave.

At that moment, he heard the leading Knight from earlier say something.

"Lord Jie La Er, I've heard of your name for many years. Logically, someone of your rank shouldn't be interrogated by someone of my level, but I have heard of that major incident from back then." The Knight stared intently at Jie La Er's retreating figure. "Didn't you ever consider that your stubborn nature is still harming you?"

Jie La Er paused for a moment, but ultimately said nothing and pushed open the door to leave.

It was already daylight in Somu City, and the sunlight stung Jie La Er's face, making him feel somewhat uncomfortable after spending the entire night in the interrogation room.

The Knight were busy coming and going in front of them. The sudden passing of the Bishop had brought too much trouble and tension to the city.

But all of this has nothing to do with Jie La Er.

He plans to go back.

He had only taken two steps when he suddenly stopped and turned around abruptly.

Behind them were rows and rows of Rhine Knight's carriages.

He sensed that someone was watching him, right there in one of the carriages.

Jie La Er's vigilance instantly heightened, for he sensed an unprecedented... danger emanating from the carriage.

That gaze lingered on him for less than a second, yet it sent a chill down his spine.

The other Rhine Knight didn't notice, as if the gaze was only directed at him.

Jie La Er narrowed his eyes, then took a step and walked towards the carriages. Before long, he stood in front of the carriage in the far corner.

That's where our gaze comes from.

Jie La Er slowly drew the dagger from his waist. This was Rhine territory, so he wasn't carrying Chainsaw Sword; the only weapon he had was this dagger.

But that's enough.

Jie La Er gripped the dagger in reverse and slowly approached the carriage, then pushed open the carriage door with his other hand.

A strong, pungent smell of blood wafted over.

He looked inside the carriage, and then his eyes widened.

What kind of person is he?

His entire body was just a pile of rotten flesh, slumped in the corner of the carriage. There was no trace of life in his body, as if even his soul had been burned out.

The only two intact parts of his body were a finger and his half-closed left eye.

This is pollution!

Jie La Er instinctively wanted to step back and then notify the Rhine Knight.

But then he discovered a piece of paper in front of the corpse, with something written on it.

He stared intently, and then his body instantly stiffened.

There are only two sentences above.

"Year 236, Night Star."

"This eye will let you see the truth."

Jie La Er slowly raised his head, looking into those half-closed, star-like eyes.

After a brief silence, Jie La Er raised the dagger and pointed it at his left eye.

After a chilling sound.

That eye was fully open in Jie La Er's bloodshot eye socket.

Then, Jie La Er heard a relaxed male voice ring in his mind.

"Hello, Jie La Er."

"You can call me,"

"Visas".

It will be available tomorrow. I'll write a launch message later. Feel free to check it out if you're interested.
