The next evening.

The setting sun at dusk is always so lazy, with a touch of blood in the orange light, rendering half of the sky in vain against the darkness of night rising from the other side.

The evening life in Twilight City is as leisurely as ever. After work, some people go into the pub to lie down on the table and have a drink, some stand on the street and stare at the sunset in a daze, and some go to the fragrant restaurant together.

There are also a group of people who were lucky enough to grab tickets to the concert and are ready to enjoy the listening feast tonight.

Lu Yuqing was holding the ticket and standing in front of the gate of the executive residence.

Chino chose the performance venue in his own mansion, presumably to facilitate the transportation and debugging of the piano.

For a music artist like him, if an unfamiliar piano has not been tuned, the tone may be inaccurate and affect the quality of the concert. This is absolutely not allowed.

Other guests came one after another, some were elegant nobles, some were plainly dressed commoners, and there were even some ragged slaves.

It seems that no matter where in the world, the love for music does not distinguish between classes.

The lower class people are also very lucky to have such an extremely affordable price of 30 iron moons.

After checking the tickets, Lu Yu started to go through the security check.

"Good evening, Onmyoji-sama." The guard recognized Lu Yuqing and called a female guard to search him.

This female guard was none other than Nicole. She groped Lu Yuqing's body in an orderly manner. The height difference between the two and the inevitable touching movements during the body search inevitably made people think.

After searching, Nicole nodded and said: "There are no dangerous goods, please come in."

Lu Yuqing and Nicole passed by each other, and the moment their eyes met, she seemed to see a flash of cold light.

The concert venue was arranged in the banquet hall. It was already crowded and all seats were occupied. Lu Yuqing found his seat according to the serial number on the ticket and sat down.

As the last guest took his seat, the curtain on the bandstand was opened.

When Lu Yuqing looked towards the stage, she couldn't help but have a question: Where is the piano?

The stage was brightly lit with candles, but it was very empty, with no shadow of the piano.

"Bang." The door to the outside world was closed, and the banquet hall was closed like a cage.

"I think someone must have a question - where is the piano?" Under the candlelight, Kino's figure walked out of the darkness and looked at Lu Yuqing with a smile, "Is this what you think, Miss Onmyoji? Or me?

I should call you...a visitor from outside the world."

Lu Yuqing froze in his seat, staring blankly at Kino.

Kino: "Don't look at me, look around you."

Lu Yuqing looked around subconsciously and suddenly discovered something terrible.

Everyone was looking at her with cold eyes.

Logically speaking, no matter whether they are nobles, commoners, or slaves, as long as they hear the four words "visitors from outer space", they will cause riots. After all, it is synonymous with blasphemy and destruction.

But at this time, all the guests just stared at her coldly...

This is definitely not the look that ordinary people should have...

Soon, Kino announced the answer: "You are the only 'guest' here, everyone else is the elite of the Twilight City defense force."

Lu Yu swallowed his throat and said in a trembling voice: "I don't understand what you mean..."

Kino looked at her with a smile: "The game is over, do you want to continue? The "Daily Journal" you bought yesterday is a customized version written specifically for you."

"I said hello to the mail boy. When others bought newspapers, they just gave them the normal ones - there was no news about the concert."

"The copy you bought has dynamic news specially drawn by the soul master. Only you know about this concert, and you will become the only guest."

Lu Yuqing couldn't help but sluggish, and his pupils were out of focus.

"What's your expression? Look around you. Everyone else is acting with you, but you are the protagonist of this scene, so -" Kino put his finger on the corner of his lips and raised it, "

Stop being so serious and smile at me~"

Lu Yuqing's lips kept trembling and his face turned pale: "I...I don't understand what you are talking about...acting? I just heard about your musical talent and came here because of your reputation."

Chino: "But yesterday Lugo asked you if you like music, and you said you had no music appreciation. In that case, why did you come to the concert?"

Lu Yuqing's eyes wandered, not knowing how to answer.

Kino used telepathy, and a voice rang in her mind: "There is only one reason - you identified the author of those tracks, and you understand what this means."

Lu Yuqing pointed to one of his golden dragon robes, held up the nameplate, and argued hoarsely: "I really don't know what you are talking about! Take a good look at my clothes and this nameplate. I am the yin and yang of the Far Eastern Dynasty.

Master, you are not a visitor from outside the world!"

Chino: "That's strange. I found several documents in your room, which recorded information about my living habits, routes in and out of the house, and a lot of recent information. These were obviously used for assassination. What's your explanation?

"

Lu Yuqing was completely stunned: "I don't understand what you are talking about. I have never written anything like that..."

Through telepathy, Kino's smile sounded in her mind again: "Of course you didn't write it, because I forged it myself to frame you. I have to make up an excuse for my soldiers~ These are actually

These are all minor incidents, you don’t need to worry about it, you just need to understand one thing - your captain is a fool, he dug a hole and jumped into it, and he caused you misery."

"Why is there a voice in my head...I've never done anything...I've never done anything! I'm going to see the imperial envoy!" Lu Yuqing stood up in panic and wanted to escape from here.

"Trapped in a soul cage!" A deafening voice came from the darkness. Ai Mo floated in the air. Black fire surged under his five fingers, condensing into five substantial pillars. The roar fell next to Lu Yuqing, completely killing her.

Trapped inside, with no room for escape or dodge.

Lu Yuqing didn't bring a charm and couldn't cast Yin Yang. She tried to break free with her body, but as soon as she touched the black fire pillar of the soul cage, the contact surface of her body seemed to be burned.

hall.

Aimo's right hand was condensing the power of soul magic, and his left hand was holding a slave who was screaming heart-wrenchingly. Judging from its shriveled body, it was obvious that it had been "soul-drained".

Soul masters are different from so-called "magicians". In the traditional sense, magicians consume mana, which can be recovered with practice or time.

But what a soul master consumes is his soul, and this consumption is irreversible. Every time he releases a soul skill, he is moving step by step toward exhaustion.

Therefore, in order to be able to release soul magic for a long time, the Eric family keeps a large number of "soul slaves". Every time the soul magician performs a spell, he will "suck souls" from these soul slaves.

In this way, what is consumed is the soul of the soul slave, not his own body.

Not long after, when the soldiers surrounded him, Aimo untied the soul cage. The soul slave under his left hand had shriveled cheeks and turned his eyes upward. He must have been drained to the point of being almost dry.

Kino walked to the soul cage, smiled at Emmo and said, "Thank you."

Aimo's face was expressionless, and he obviously had a grudge: "Let me remind you first. You'd better not make any mistakes in your judgment on this matter. Otherwise, if you infringe on the personal freedom of a one-clawed golden dragon, you and I will be in trouble.

Big trouble."

Kino looked at Lu Yuqing, who was imprisoned by the soldiers, and said with profound meaning: "Don't worry, I won't make any mistakes. Take her to the dungeon, and I will interrogate her personally."

The soldiers took Lu Yuqing to the dungeon, locked him in a prison chair, and then guarded the entrance and exit on three levels inside and outside to prevent other outsiders from robbing the prison.

I don't know how long it took, but with Lu Yuqing's rapid breathing, the black mask on her head was lifted. After her eyes adjusted to the light, she could clearly see Kino sitting opposite.

Kino: "Everyone else, please go out first. You are not allowed to come in without my order, and you are not allowed to eavesdrop. Otherwise, you will be executed directly."

Lugo originally wanted to stay and protect Kino's safety, but then he thought, with Kino's strength, should he worry about his safety?

Does it match?

Instead of worrying about Kino, it would be better to go back and worry about what flowers to buy for Ann.

"Let's go, get out." Lugo pushed several guards out and closed the door with a bang.

There were only two people left in the dungeon.

Lu Yuqing grabbed the words and shouted: "Master Administrator! There must be some misunderstanding here!"

"Please, the game is over, why do you continue to pretend?" Kino's fingers danced regularly on the table and he said with a smile, "Let's make a deal. You admit your identity and tell me your plan.
