Despite her whines and grumbles, Noah dragged the pen along the blank sheets of paper. Did she have a choice? No, she had to endure to acquire her freedom.
It was never intentional. It wasn’t a preditated cri, it was just an accidental mistake. I’ve never had contact with Yulem, and I guess there was a conflict as they approached knowing that I had imprinted the dragon…
“Why do I have to write this!” Noah complained as her fingers were beginning to feel numb, but flinched at Kyle’s glare as she attempted to throw his sixteenth letter of apology away.
“Miss Noah, I told you I was working all night to reduce your sentence. So, how to behave as one at the receiving end of help?” Kyle asked very gently but with nace in his words at the sa ti. After three seconds of silence, Noah replied, bowing her head.
“I’ll finish it without saying anything…” She wrapped her fingers around the pen again, gliding it across the paper along with her lancholy.
If you forgive just this once, I will really be reborn as a new person.

A little tired, Kyle blinked slowly as he read Noah’s letter of apology. Her handwriting, which first started straight, beca more and more incomprehensible after a few paragraphs. In fact, the last chapter had almost been scrawled.
However, since the Emperor had no plans to read each letter anyway, Kyle inserted the fifteenth reflection in the compilation instead of nagging Noah to write properly. While Noah was writing her sixteenth letter, Kyle took out his case log and checked the list of things he had to deal with.
Eleonora Asil murder.
A mass disappearance in the Noviscosha mine.
A back-up investigation of Lenia Valtalere
Post-op interrogation of the train to Central Edman and the assassins from Yulem on Angelic.
Review after editing the recording.
There was so much Kyle had to do. If Noah’s trial would be completed safely, the case of the egg’s disappearance would be officially closed. However, since the real culprit wasn’t her, Kyle must catch Lenia’s tail and seize the power that controlled her.
In the anti, sothing unusual was happening on Noviscosha’s side, so he had to go on a business trip, but he couldn’t handle Tezeba and Noviscosha’s affairs at the sa ti unless he had two bodies.
Fortunately, Penelope and Paul were reviewing the transcripts of the train to Central Edman and the attacks on the Angelic, but Kyle was afraid if he didn’t check the videos himself.
Ring. Breaking the mont of silence, the pager on the desk rang. Kyle raised his head and pressed the pager’s button, giving Noah a wink to continue writing.
– Captain, I need to talk to you for a mont.
“Penelope?”
Kyle’s body was strained. He snatched the pager and answered. “Why, is sothing wrong?”
– No, it’s not like that, but… Are you still interrogating Lady Asil?
“What’s going on?” Kyle’s voice was low. Once he had entered the interrogation room, his n usually didn’t call him, well aware of his personality that he hated interruptions. But he had received a call, which ant sothing happened.
“Going up. Stand by.” He grumbled.
– Ah… No, Captain. It’s not urgent, so I’ll report it to you later. I’m sorry to interrupt.
“What? Penelope, you’re kidding …” Kyle was about to snap in annoyance and exhaustion, but stopped when Noah stared at him in unease.
“…For now, I see.” If I startle her and she cries again, I’m in trouble. In the end, Kyle turned off his pager after replying to his subordinate.
“Oh, where are you going?” Anxiety was already written all over Noah’s face. Seeing that she was eyeing all his movents with her eyes, she seed to really hate being left alone in the interrogation room. “Are you going?”
“I have a job to do…”
“I’ll finish writing. Let’s go out together.” Noah stretched her arm over the table and took his hand. Kyle looked down at her hand, a little embarrassed. The last ti Noah held him was when she treated the wound on his face, and he was quite ungrateful to her.
“Can’t we go together?” Noah looked at Kyle with sullen eyes while pouting her lips.
It was hard to say ‘no’ to her expression.
