Akira Mado, sitting in her seat, once again chased away the man who came to chat with her and looked helplessly at her four Confused subordinates. The most normal-acting among them was surprisingly Saiko Yonebayashi, but thankfully, their 'setting' was originally 'young people taking a break to experience a nightclub', otherwise, it might have attracted the attention of others, right?
As a CCG investigator, Akira Mado rarely drank alcohol, but since they came to a nightclub, they couldn't just sit there in a daze, so after ordering a cocktail for herself, she also ordered beer or fruit wine for the other three. Just as she finished the last drop of wine in her glass, a figure walked over from the middle of the dance floor.
The revealing clothing, coupled with a strange, pursed-lip smile, undoubtedly indicated the other party's identity –––––– Nutcracker.
Although they knew from the documents that the other party's cover identity in human society was a 'hostess', Ginshi Shirazu and Kuki Urie, who were seeing such provocative attire for the first time, seemed somewhat flustered, not even knowing where to put their eyes.
Seeing the 'target' appear, Akira Mado naturally intended to sit up straight and talk to the other party, but she suddenly widened her eyes, because she found that something was wrong. It seemed that her body was a little out of control?
'Am I drunk?! Impossible! Although my alcohol tolerance is not too good, it's not too bad either...'
Realizing something was wrong, she quickly reached for her thigh under her dress.
"Slap~"
But at this moment, a hand grabbed her wrist, and then she saw a pair of black teeth.
"It seems this lady is a bit unusual~ Let me see what treasure you are hiding?"
'Nutcracker', who noticed Akira Mado's reaction, unconsciously revealed a smile on her face, but when she reached under the other party's skirt, she was completely stunned, because she touched a rod-shaped object near the base of the other party's thigh.
Nutcracker's expression changed drastically. She cautiously lifted Akira Mado's skirt and then saw safety shorts and a 'Quinque' strapped to her thigh.
Her expression suddenly changed drastically. She finally realized that things were not only wrong but very wrong!
The other party was actually a white dove (CCG Investigator)?!
But after being surprised, she forced herself to calm down, and at the same time, she began to glance around with her eyes, seemingly looking for other possible investigators, but unfortunately, the investigators chosen to protect the Quinx Squad this time were all seasoned veterans. How could they be discovered so easily?
Realizing something was wrong, 'Nutcracker' also looked at the other four, who were already drowsy. Unsurprisingly, the four of them should also be white doves. At this time, she could choose to directly kill the five of them, but she hesitated, because in her opinion, since the white doves of the CCG did not directly attack her, it meant they were planning something, but now the offensive and defensive roles had switched, and the other party had gone from hidden to exposed, giving her more options.
First, this identity could no longer be used. Secondly ––––––
Glancing at the two girls lying there, she couldn't help but feel a little pity, but they were inferior to the woman beside her.
'I'll take her away first. As for the other four, there will naturally be a chance to deal with them.'
Being able to survive until now, 'Nutcracker' naturally knew how to make a choice. She supported Akira Mado with one hand, and the two walked towards the restroom, looking like acquaintances.
Generally speaking, if a drunk beautiful woman is helped by a man, the people who see it will reflexively feel that something is wrong, but when the person beside her is also a beautiful woman, people generally won't be vigilant.
As for the CCG investigators in the distance, they naturally wouldn't guess that Akira Mado was already 'drunk'. They only thought this was Akira Mado's plan to make contact. They chose to remain still.
However, a tall Western man focused his attention on them. After the two left his line of sight, he took out a banknote from his pocket and slapped it onto the table.
"Keep the change."
After speaking, he followed them out.
Undoubtedly, that Western man was Lancer, who had concealed his true appearance using illusion magic.
He originally intended to patrol as usual, but for some reason, his eyelids kept twitching whenever he thought of Akira Mado's phone call earlier, saying that she had a mission to execute tonight.
Lancer was very confident in his own luck, especially when it came to unpleasant things.
So he chose to conceal his identity and follow behind Akira Mado and the others, but he didn't expect that this bad premonition actually came true.
Following the other party to the women's restroom, he hesitated for two seconds and rushed straight in.
Unsurprisingly, the window was wide open, and there was no one inside the restroom.
He put one hand on the windowsill and jumped out directly. Undoubtedly, this was a dark alley, and then an incredible scene appeared. A tall man, over 180 centimeters in height, actually transformed into a black raven in a flash of light.
"Caw~"
After letting out a strange cry, it flapped its wings fiercely and flew into the air.
Using the 'Eagle Eye' ability, Lancer quickly locked onto 'Nutcracker', who was carrying Akira Mado.
At this time, she no longer concealed her Kakugan. Relying on her powerful physical strength, she ran wildly through the alley, but she clearly did not notice the black raven in the air at this time.
After finding the target, Lancer plunged down without hesitation to prevent further complications.
And 'Nutcracker', who was carrying Akira Mado, suddenly felt that something was wrong when she heard the wind behind her. This nightclub was her ghoul hunting ground, and she was very familiar with the nearby area. In her impression, there shouldn't be such a sound of wind here at all.
'Is it an enemy attack?'
The two Koukaku on her shoulders, which resembled the forelimbs of a crustacean, suddenly extended out, and turning around with their help, she saw an incredible scene: a raven actually transformed into a tall man in mid-air.
What was even more bizarre was that the man's right hand was covered in frost, but despite the surprise, she reflexively put the Koukaku in front of her.
"Clang~ Clang~!"
The ice-materialized long spear naturally couldn't pierce Nutcracker's Koukaku in a hasty strike, but Lancer purpose was not to kill the opponent in the first place.
Stomping his right foot fiercely on the already frozen Koukaku, he flipped in the air, and at the same time, wrapped both hands around Akira Mado's waist.
"Slap~"
Nutcracker, who hadn't expected Lancer to come to the rescue at this moment, suddenly felt her hand tighten, but when she prepared to apply more force, she found a burst of ice mist sweeping towards her.
Feeling that something was strange, she quickly let go, and Lancer landed on the ground nearby, holding Akira Mado in his arms.
Undoubtedly, his purpose from the start was to rescue Akira Mado.
