Chapter 26 - XX. Detached.

/General Fourth stands up from his seat.

"Get going now"

"Will do"

; Leonel responded politely.

Leon, before leaving, took a hat from the chair and wore it as he walks out the room. But before leaving the palace, he decided to take a peek from the interrogation room. Inside, Chief Cyro and Selene were having a conversation, from the left side of the palace, outside the room, Lt. Col. Viess was walking towards Leonel and started a short conversation.

"Leaving?"

; asked Lt. Col. Viess.

"Yes sir"

"A conversation with the general?"

"Certainly, sir"

"I see, that always happens once you visit here. I hope you're not bothered"

"It definitely doesn't bother me Lt. Col. Siege"

"That's very polite of you to address me in my surname"

"It suits you well sir"

"Nice to hear when it comes from you, I must proceed then, let us know if you're needing something"

"Thank you Sir Siege"

Lt. Col. Viess, as a respond, he placed his fingers near his eyebrows and did a salute. Leonel did the same thing as a respect.

//South, Cratter Spring

"What now?"

; Asked Maxx, who's lying upside down on a chair.

"I wonder why all were so calm. Do they know about the nitros nearby?"

; Said Axis while standing beside the bathroom door.

"I'm sure the higher ups didn't inform all well the people to not cause any trouble"

; Lean replied, sitting on a chair with a brilliant posture.

"Sure did"

; Sierinn, sipping a cup of water.

"Again, whaaat nooowww"

; Lame voice coming from Maxx who again asked.

"Cut it Maxx, we need some confirmation first before heading into another pile of sh*t"

; Replied Sierinn, set aside his cup and stood.

"I don't mean to fight..

/Maxx sits straight up.

..what I mean is, what do we REALLY do? are we going to sit here and wait for something to come up? like, do we--"

Sierinn interrupted.

"We can't just go outside like we wanted to, it's not something that we aren't obligated, but the danger, don't you think?"

/Maxx sigh.

"Well, yeah of course, I see that you get me, I'm glad, really. So do we wait here?"

; Replied.

"We should atleast go to the palace and ask for something about nitros"

; Ises speak up, standing at the window, who's quiet and was just listening to their thoughts.

"We can do that right?"

; Asked Axis, while he starred to his friends.

"Sure"

; Lean.

"Kinda lame but okay"

; Maxx, stood up from his chair.

As discussed, they all decided to go to the Euzenki Palace together to find something about the unknown named demons.

//Euzenki Palace, interrogation room.

"Could you please tell me about the detailed occurrence at that place? and describe where did they brought you?"

"I can't remember"

; Selene answered politely, looking under the table holding her hands tightly.

"I-I'm sorry, but K can't--"

; she added.

"Okay, please tranquilize. I didn't mean to let you answer forcefully from what I've asked. However, do you remember any from what happened?"

"One pointed a gun"

; she answered.

"Well, what else?"

"All I did was self-defense. The place, it was dark and cold. No one around, that any voice couldn't be heard, no matter how loud it was, I'm sure of it. No one came when it was done, until I've reached the tree.. was still far from everybody"

"Did you sense any intentions from those bastards?"

"Definitely. I felt desperation"

"What do you feel now? are you frustrated?"

"I was, earlier. But what I feel now is completely blank and can't think of any, I suppose it was taken out"

"Understood, we'll get them here and make sure that was the last"

"Please do. Now, may I leave?"

"Sure. Thank you for your cooperation young lady Selene, do you wish to continue at the market?"

"I have nothing else"

"Yes it is. I'd make sure that you'll get to work there again, you may leave the room now"

After a minutes of talk, Selene was finally proven innocent by the fact that the boxes, indicated stolen, was back at the market again without any trace. On the other hand, the lady who reported this was interrogated simultaneously with Selene. The lady, charged with false accusation whereas Selene was led into danger.

The vendor was suspended selling at the market for 4 weeks.

The evidence that Selene was hurt was the chair she was sitting on. It was a polygraph test used for the person who's being asked. As for someone who doesn't knew about it, it would indicate surely the one who's side is honesty or deception.
