Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 407 - I understand the language?
...***...
Lucia had just returned from having picked up her items left behind in the classroom.
He walked over to Rei who had been waiting for him since earlier near the motorbike.
Lucia slowed down her steps as she saw a blonde woman who stepped across from her.
Lucia looked at the woman fixedly, noticing her beautiful figure.
Whose girl is that? Very beautiful, she thought as she continued to look at Lucy until her figure was lost among several other students who passed by.
"You done yet?" asked Rei as he approached the girl who became his lover.
Lucia turned to look at him.
"uh? Oh, ja. I'm done."
"Then let's go home."
"Come," said Lucia who then walked following Rei from behind.
Rei fitted an additional helmet he carried to Lucia, then he climbed on his bike with a Lucia piggyback.
Rei left school.

"How's it?" aland asked Lucy who had just returned after a while he entered and carried out his task of finding more detailed information about their target.
"I can't find any clues, people don't know our target" he explained.
"really? What about the brother I mean?"
"none. The person I mean is dead."
"What?"
"Yes, that's what I heard. Now, it looks like we should be looking for other information. We have to find another way we can catch our target."
"How is it?"
"Oh, you're right. Then let's get a cab after that back to the hotel."
"Come on."
Aland and Lucy moved out of place. He stepped to the side of the road, looking for an empty taxi to drive them back to the hotel to pack.

Bruk!
Rei laid his body on his bed as soon as he arrived home after delivering Lucia.
He stared at the ceiling of his room. Rei still felt tired after doing a lot of activities today.
The tring!
The sound of a cell phone caught his attention. He switched to focusing on the flat object in his pants pocket. Ransacked the object and checked the message that just came in.
Lusia: You're home?
Rei smiled knot. He typed a message to reply to a message from his lover.
Rei: I just arrived.
The reply. He then threw the phone in his hand to the side of the bed he was in.
Rei sighed softly.
I was really tired, he thought, looking back at the ceiling of his room.
For some reason, Rei suddenly remembered the blond European woman he had accidentally run over.
"I wonder why I can understand the language he uses? Even I can very easily communicate with him," Rei murmured softly. It is confusing, he does not understand since when he can speak in another language, especially not only that. As he tried to find clues about himself through his books as well, not knowing why Rei could easily interpret every hangeul, hiragana, and katakana written there.
Rei's memory switched. Suddenly his memory was fixed at a moment when the woman asked him about a man in the photo on his cell phone.
Rei still imagined the figure of the middle-aged man in the picture he showed.
"Now why do I even feel like I've met him?"
