Born Again To Love You More
CHAPTER 54 THE FORGOTTEN PAST

Police station.

TOKK TOKK TOKK

"Sir, someone wants to meet" a police officer said.

"Lake in."

A cold voice came from behind the door.

"Agas, you don't usually come here."

Captain Luca is shocked to see the arrival of Agas. Although it has often seen Zero hero-wiri members in this police station. There are no cases that need their help at this time.

"Sorry to disturb the chairman, but I'm here on Alion's orders" Agas replied seriously.

Captain Luca frowned, something bad must have happened.

"Say."

Agas began to explain the intricacies of the matter of why he came here. Although Alion did not explain directly what he had to do. Having known Alion since childhood, he understood what his boss wanted him to do.

"I get it, I'll get my team there soon."

Agas walked out of the police station after hearing Luca's reply. He knew the captain would not let him down. Whoever's behind all this has to be arrested. They will not let this case disappear just because someone in power is the mastermind behind it all.

....

"Everyone listen to me, this kidnapping is no ordinary case. I want you to find out who's behind all this. Increase what needs to be raised. Don't cover anything up with the people."

KIDNAPPINGS

A word that reminds Luca of events in the past. Alion is the victim. He remembered the incident very well, as it was his first case. And at first he knew Alion. Men who can sometimes be so crazy at times.

Flashbacks

A case that shook him to the bone marrow occurred in Luca's first year as a police officer. This is the case that brings him into the world of the worst crime, child trafficking.

At that time he was still a passionate young detective. Luca has just become a member of the Metroville City police criminal division. The phone call made the office calm. The case was about losing a group of children playing in a city park.

Luca immediately put the case in his car and drove to the reported location. He arrived there quickly, and diligent police officers surrounded the entire area. Luca goes straight to Alion's hysterical mother and portrays her son as a happy and smart child.

Some of the other parents are not much different. Everyone never thought their child who was playing was suddenly kidnapped. In a panic they started making a fuss with the police on duty.

"Everyone please calm down, I'm luca team leader for the case. I promise to save my father and mother soon. I asked for her cooperation, please" said luca firmly. Seeing all the parents starting to calm down, Luca resumed his words. "There's a member of my team who's going to ask the father and mother about the children. I hope everyone answers honestly."

All the parents who heard him obediently moved in the direction that Luca pointed. After all according to what Luca arranged, he resumed his work.

Luca arrives at the scene and begins investigating. After hours of searching, its members finally found a trail leading to an old warehouse in an abandoned suburb.

"Davin, are you sure all the clues lead there?" ask Luca seriously.

"I've checked all the chiefs. There was no CCTV recording. But some people have claimed to have seen the car" Davin said.

Hearing that, Luca immediately prepared a team to move to that place. "All listen, safe children are the most important thing. Do whatever it takes to make sure they don't get hurt."

When we arrive at the location.

He found a frightening calmness as he entered. But his heart was jolted by the soft voice in the midst of that darkness.

"Hikkss-hikss huu-u"

He saw Alion, who looked frightened and confused, trying to protect a little girl.

A group of ruthless criminals who kidnap the children have been planning to sell them into the illicit trade. It's not just the kids in the park. Many other children have also been abducted.

Those people were so cruel to beat up some children to comply. And Alion was among the people who had been beaten.

With his small body, ten-year-old Alion stands in front of Ls a girl, daring to protect her from the criminals who threaten them. He was undaunted even though his body was full of wounds.

Seeing that without hesitation, Luca took his weapon and resolutely fought the culprits. Inside the old warehouse, fierce battles ensued, and Luca cleverly defeated the villains one after another.

Despite her fear, Alion never took her hand off the little girl and continued to protect her.

In the end, additional police members arrive and help Luca.

....

"Lio, how did you get here?" ask Lily after she calms down.

"it doesn't matter" Alion said. His eyes were busy watching Lily from top to bottom. Make sure nothing is lacking. "Tell me if anyone gets hurt? Did they do anything to you?"

Seeing Alion who was so panicked, Lily did not immediately reply, tightly she hugged Alion again.

"What's up, hmm?" ask Alion again. However, this time the tone was softer.

"I'm scared."

Well, Lily was really scared. She was so scared when she found out she had been kidnapped. And even he was very afraid of failure when attacking kidnappers. But he's more afraid he can't see Alion anymore. In her second life, Lily is still not happy enough for Alion.

Alion's heart ached when he heard it. He has failed to protect Lily.

"Hmm, I'm here. There won't be any more problems. I'm sorry I didn't protect you" said Alion rasping.

Lily raised her head, looking right in Alion's eyes, that's not what she meant. In a hurry he began to shake loudly.

"Hum, no. Lio always protected me, don't say that again," Lily said scowling.

Of course he couldn't hear that. Whether it was in his previous life or in this life Alion had done a lot for him. How could he judge himself so badly.

"REally!?" reply Alion does not believe.

"Yes, if Alion vilifies himself again. I'm gonna be mad" Lily threatened.

Alion chuckles a little at her girl's behavior. He was the one who comforted the girl. But now this girl was comforting him. This made Alion love him even more.

"Well, you defended me so much. Aren't you afraid I'll get jealous" Alion said, pretending to be annoyed.

Lily who heard it could only stagger. "What did Alion say? What does that mean, she's jealous of herself, "the inner Lily doesn't understand.

Lily who was basically a police officer when facing Alion. He easily believed the man's words.

"Lio, I don't understand. You're jealous of yourself. Then I have to, you guys are the same person. Hah, I'm even confused by the words I said."

The girl's eyes looked very seriously at Alion. It was as if he was really afraid of doing the wrong thing.

"Alright, I'm just kidding," said Alion helplessly. He just wanted to tease the girl. But he took it seriously. Alion felt increasingly anxious and annoyed at him at the same time.

"Huh, you teased me again," Lily said annoyedly.

However, whether conscious or not. Small conversations they had. Makes Lily forget her fear.
