He firmly believed that he was doing the right thing.

Seleu's sense of justice is distorted.

People can not escape from doing wrong?

Her sense of justice is pure evil to ordinary people.

Breaking free from one's preconceived notions and accepting new values ​​is a painful process.

“I was wrong.” Seryu’s eyes seemed to have lost their luster. “I always thought I was right, that I was fighting for justice, but I was wrong.”

Seleu had already experienced this suffering.

Through these tireless investigations,

She discovered that the people of the capital she had risked everything to protect were nothing but an illusion.

The real bad apples were hidden among these so-called citizens, and she was completely unaware of this. Moreover, under Oja's protection, many villains lived quite comfortably. In other words, Seleu had been protecting those villains to some extent all along.

Realizing this, she found it even harder to forgive herself.

But before that, hatred and anger had filled her chest, just waiting for the right moment to vent them.

"Is that so? Then, Senior Seryu, what are your plans next?" Lu Ye said. "I didn't expect that the people killed by that assassin organization were all villains. That's quite surprising."

“I want to leave the Imperial Capital Garrison,” Seryu said.

Lu Ye stopped what he was doing.

"Senior Seryu, are you serious?"

"Yes."

"Where will you go after leaving the guard unit?" Lu Ye said. "Once you choose to leave this post, Xiao Bi will definitely be taken away. Is that alright? More importantly, don't you plan to continue to carry on the evil?"

Seleu gently shook his head.

“I will never forget how my father died. I will not stop fighting against evil, but at the same time I will not give up Little Bee. Without it, I will be nothing. More importantly, it is my partner, and I will not abandon it.”

As he spoke, Little Bi crawled out of Seryu's arms and whimpered.

"Senior Seryu..."

Lu Ye understood what Seleu meant.

She's about to betray us.

How precious are the Imperial Arms? If Seleu chooses to retire, then the Imperial Arms will definitely be taken back.

But Seryu said she didn't want to hand over Kobi.

So her only remaining option was to join the "Night Raid".

To be honest, this was beyond Lu Ye's expectations.

Although they had only spent a short time together, he could see that Seryu had a fondness and respect for the guard, because it was the place her father had fought for.

He just hadn't expected the change to happen so quickly...

Although I was somewhat happy, because this meant that Seryu would now be part of our fighting force.

But you still have to try to persuade them to stay.

Just like your former boss before you left the company.

While verbally pleading for your return, they're secretly looking for someone to replace you and preparing to discard you.

“But Senior Seryu, if you want to punish criminals, staying in the guard unit is also an option, isn’t it…”

“The reason I left the security force is because what I’m about to do could cause considerable casualties, and I don’t want to tarnish the profession my father loved,” Seryu said. “But I will carry on his legacy and maintain peace in the capital, and in the security force, my hands can’t reach into the deeper darkness…”

Seleu's voice was hoarse, but his gaze was firm. "I'm leaving the guard and joining Night Raid. These days I've been thinking that since what these people are doing is exactly what I want, it means I'm one of them, nothing more."

Lu Ye's gaze was somewhat complicated.

If someone overheard this, or reported Seryu herself, she would be in deep trouble.

As a member of the security force, joining an assassin organization would definitely be used as a prime example by the minister.

Perhaps the next day we'll see Seleu, with his severed limbs, tied to a stake at the execution ground.

But Seryu still revealed her plans without hesitation...

Lu Ye then realized that this wasn't just ordinary trust in her.

"So that's why you came to me, to ask if I agreed to your request to leave the team?"

“Yes, I believe you.” Seria nodded.

“I see… Well then…” Lu Ye put his hand on Seryu’s shoulder, “Since we’re leaving the guard team anyway, how about we punish the criminals as guard team members one last time, as a way of commemorating it?”

Seryu agreed to Lu Ye's request without hesitation.

"Of course, what is it?"

“Do you remember the team that Oujia personally managed?” Lu Ye said. “They also seem to have done a lot of bad things under Oujia’s protection. Although it was only for a short time, I was indeed one of them. If I rashly expose them, I might be smeared by those people.”

Upon hearing this, Seryu's gaze hardened.

"I see."

Without saying a word, she turned and walked towards the door.

But when she reached the door, she turned around.

"I believe you, Lu Ye, really. But I don't want to, and I dare not, experience betrayal a second time. I want to completely trust you."

Lu Ye also understood what Seleu meant.

She was afraid, afraid that she would end up like before.

Lu Ye also understood that the only thing he needed to do at that moment was to put her mind at ease.

"I have some leads about those people."

Lu Ye took out a small booklet and gently placed it on the table.

“This is a place that those people seem to frequent, and it seems that Oja’s property has also been divided up by them. Use your own eyes to confirm it, Senior Seryu. You decide who should be killed.”

Seleu picked up the thin booklet.

The booklet was so light, but she felt as if she had found something important.

Tears rolled down her cheeks, a sense of relief washing over her.

……

Time flies.

The sky above the capital was adorned with a fiery red sunset and clouds dyed crimson.

After finishing a day's work, it was finally time to get off work.

While eating a crepe, Lu Ye walked down the street, holding several photos in her hand.

Lu Ye didn't recognize the person on that platform.

All he knew was that these people were going to die tonight.

According to Leone and Lubbock's investigation, there were also prayers from those who suffered, all of whom were wicked men, from those who imprisoned women and beat them to death for their amusement, to gangs that sold women and children various addictive and highly toxic drugs, to some corrupt officials who plundered the people.

The preparations are complete.

Lu Ye meticulously planned the patrol routes for the security team.

This would not only allow Akame and the others to easily infiltrate the capital, but also enable them to exit safely and smoothly.

Tonight, the Night Raid Squad is about to unleash a bloodbath in the capital.

But just as Lu Ye was about to head to Lubbock's bookstore, he suddenly discovered something puzzling.

—I was being followed.

who is it?

Lu Ye didn't think he had offended anyone recently.

If I had to pick one, it would be that guy Thorn, but I imagine he was seriously injured and should still be recovering right now.

From this perspective, it seems that only Minister Ernest is left.

After all, he killed the decapitated Zanku himself, so it's only natural that he would be suspected of possessing an Imperial Arm.

Lu Ye put the photos away and stuffed the rest of the crepes into her mouth.

He then took the dagger from his waist, pretending to inspect it, and then, with the help of the reflection from the blade, he saw the appearance of the person who was following him.

She was a woman with light chocolate-colored skin.

Her appearance is above average, and she dresses very boldly, exposing a large amount of skin, giving her an exotic look at first glance.

Lu Ye thought for a moment.

If I'm not mistaken, this girl is also one of the "Four Demon Rakshasa".

It seems that Ernest values ​​the Imperial Arms quite a bit and will not give up until he finds out its whereabouts.

However, this just happened to suit Lu Ye's wishes.

Because this is the perfect alibi!

Lu Ye glanced at the woman again, then calmly put away his dagger and slipped into an alleyway.

The girl who had been following Lu Ye caught up with him.

Lu Ye's figure weaved through the alleyways, flashing past one corner after another.

The girl's footwork was quite good; she didn't fall behind Lu Ye, but kept a close distance and followed closely.

However, a minute later, she seemed to have noticed something.

Lu Ye seemed to be wandering around in the alley.

She had initially thought Lu Ye would go somewhere, but it seemed that wasn't the case.

Lu Ye was like a fly caught in a maze, just flying around aimlessly.

Just as she was thinking this, Lu Ye's body disappeared around the corner again.
