Alexander followed Hats and appeared where Ajax was. He saw Ajax hugging a dog and had tears in his eyes.
Alexander went closer and caressed his head. He asked softly, "What happened, Ajax?"
Ajax looked at him with sorrowful eyes. "Grandpa, please look at my past two day mories."
Ajax didn't have the strength to tell him everything. Alexander understood that sothing emotional must have happened so he softly saw his mory. It was sothing he never did with his family but they knew he had this ability.
So of them even ask him sotis to help them erase a mory they want to forget. For example, Choi sotis asks him to make the mory of his favorite cake's taste disappear so he can experience it for the first ti again.
Alexander saw everything. By the end, he sat down on the floor. He looked at the pitiful Chira.
"Poor child, you have been wronged." He caressed the Chira's head.
"Dobby, call whichever officer is in charge of this area," Alexander ordered.
"No need, I have already done it. Who are you?" Edward asked with darkened and sad eyes.
"He's my grandpa." Ajax introduced.
Alexander ignored them and walked to the sinner man. He looked at his sins quickly.
||Shou Tucker - Category 3
Uxoricide(Wife killing) - 1
Murder by experintation - 5
Experinting on Daughter - 1
Torturing Daughter - 1

Kidnapping - 5

Alexander knew that the man was a lost cause. He was ready to go to any length in order to not lose his state alchemist certification.
"Your presence makes
sick," Alexander muttered and walked back to the calmly sitting Chira.
But he also put the man under Ti Torture. In it, he would never be able to get state certification and whenever he would try to experint, the experint would sohow backfire and he would end up becoming a Chira himself, then die from various painful diseases.
That was not it, Alexander also gave him a physical punishnt. No matter what, he would die, but simple death was too easy. Alexander put a curse on him. It will activate the mont he's taken away. The curse will make him feel pain as if every single cell in his body was exploding. It would be a pain that no dicine or treatnt could heal. The curse also makes him unable to take his own life. He will spend the few days he is left in intense pain that will keep reminding him of why he's feeling all this.
"Can we play now?" Chira asked him.
"Ajax, go with her to the other room and play with her. I will co to treat her soon." Alexander instructed.
Ajax nodded and took her to the next room. Hats also followed as he also felt bad for the little girl and the dog. Less for the dog though.
Alexander waited for a while and after so ti, a few people in military clothes ca there.
"What happened, Fulltal?" Colonel Roy Mustang asked sternly. He was in an important eting when he was called here in the na of an ergency.
"Colonel, Mr. Tucker, he lied," Edward said dejectedly.
"What do you an, speak clearly, Ed." Riza Hawkeye spoke.
Alexander was looking at the two new arrivals. The man was a colonel from his dressing and the na was clear from his naplate on his chest. While he gave off a selfish and narcissistic aura, but Alexander felt there were other feelings under there too.
The girl on the other hand was a lieutenant. She seed strictly disciplined and extrely rational but Alexander felt sothing else, she seed to like the man beside her.
"Colonel, Lieutenant, Mr. Tucker was conducting experints on humans. He did it on little Nina. He transmuted her and her dog to make a talking Chira.
"I-I... we found out this morning. He most likely did the sa with his wife 2 years ago." Edward dropped the bomb.
Roy was a little bit shaken. He had t the sweet little girl. "Where are they?"
Alexander ca forward, "The man is sitting there, Nina... the Chira is in the other room. She still retains so of her mories and wouldn't be able to see her father being taken away."
"And who are you?" Riza inquired while stepping in front of Roy as his bodyguard.
Alexander was in no mood to joke around and took out his ID. "Here, I am Major General Alexander Maxim Universe. That is my adjutant, Colonel Dobby."
Both Roy and Riza saluted him. "Sir,"
"As you were, co with
and file a report," Alexander ordered and walked in.
He brought them to the room Ajax was playing with the Chira. The Chira was running behind Ajax with a smile.
"Brother A...jax..."
"Brother A...jax..."
"That is my grandson, playing with her. Put in the report that Shou Tucker also confessed to
for killing his wife." Alexander said.
"Yes, sir." Riza sternly obeyed.
"Sir, which departnt are you from? I have not heard of you in my entire career." Roy asked him.
"I am the head of the Archeological departnt. I mostly travel the world to investigate any unusual happenings or any discoveries. I was in the Lost City of Xerxes for the past few weeks." Alexander revealed.
Roy imdiately understood why he had not heard about Alexander. He had not even heard about this Archeological departnt and he guessed that it must be a false na for so secretive departnt that investigates weird things. He was wrong but Alexander was happy with such a misunderstanding.
"Then, can Nina be healed?" Roy inquired.
"No, not with the current alchemy knowledge," Alexander replied, making everyone sadder.
"But my knowledge is vast and transcends alchemy. As long as you have the knowledge, nothing is impossible. You hold onto Shou Tucker, I will heal her. Did you bring a photographer with you? Take a few pictures of her as proof." He ordered.
After that, he went to the Chira.
"Co with ," Alexander said and took her with him to a secluded room.
"We play?" She asked.
Alexander patted her head, "Yes, we will. You, , and your dog."
Alexander used his powers to rewind the ti of her body and returned her to the state before she and the dog were transmuted. It was exactly 15 hours he had to rewind.
In the end, there were two bodies in front of him. Both were passed out. Nina didn't have clothes so he conjured clothes on her fist. Then he picked the dog and Nina in his arms and brought them out.
Everyone was waiting for him outside. When the door opened again, it had just been 15 minutes. They didn't have much hope. All of them there were knowledgeable about Alchemy and knew that such things could not be reversed.
"Grandpa, How is she?" Ajax asked even before the door opened. He was 100 percent sure that his grandpa would be able to do it.
"Haha, yes yes, she is fine now." Alexander ca out with two different figures in his arms.
Edward and Alphonse's eyes widened when they saw them. Even Roy and Riza's.
"They are tired and unconscious, they need rest. Show
the bedroom." Alexander said.
Alphonse led him to the bedroom where he put the little girl and her dog. It will take a few hours for them to wake up. The ntal trauma she went through would need to be slowly washed away.
"HOW DID YOU DO THIS?" Edward asked him.
"By reversing the transmutation. It is purely theoretical knowledge in the military research departnt. Except for , I don't recomnd anybody doing it unless they are extrely proficient in it." Alexander revealed. He didn't tell them the truth but what he told them was also possible and would have treated Nina.
"That's amazing," Roy muttered.
~No wonder I didn't know his na. He must be involved in so secret researches.~ Roy thought. But this made him vigilant towards him as he didn't know if he was a man who was loyal to the military first or his personnel goals.
Alexander sighed, "I want that Shou Tucker to be given the death penalty. What he did was the greatest taboo, and it becos even worse when we take into account that he used his own imdiate family. That poor child deserved all the love and care in the world but what she got was hell. Dobby, hand them the evidence."
"Those docunts are about 5 more people that went missing in the East City in the past two years. They were all done by Shou Tucker. They were all a part of failed experints." Alexander explained it to them.
Roy read all of them and was shocked. He rembered all these kidnapping cases. They tried to solve them but couldn't and then the kidnappings suddenly stopped. "Sir, don't worry, with all this evidence, no one can save him from the death penalty.'
"Good, you go, I will co by your office later." Alexander dismissed them.
Roy and Riza didn't stay there after that. When they got into the car, Roy spoke. "I want to know everything about him. If he is really this knowledgeable then why is he roaming around the country like this? He should be in the central city, conducting research. I don't feel right about him."
"Yes, he's certainly mysterious, but I don't think he's bad at all. I am your bodyguard, sir, my job is to read people and feel the surrounding. From my evaluation, Major General felt like a kind old man, an old man who is strong, but ruthless to the likes of Shou Tucker. But don't worry, I will submit my report to you as soon as possible, sir." She said firmly,
"Let's hope you are right." Roy sighed.
