The alley turned into chaos in an instant.
Although each member of Madelaine Fah had their preferred weapons, it was insufficient to push away the continuous stream of police officers pouring into the narrow alley.
“I can’t go! I won’t go!”
Number 1, pinned under three police officers, thrashed like a tantrum-throwing child.
“Arrest us later! We have urgent business to attend to!”
Trapped under the net, Number 2 yelled frantically.
“Here, here’s a carriage! Please take us to Viscount Madern’s!”
Some organization members tried to escape to the main road to catch a carriage, but the carriages swiftly disappeared upon seeing the pursuing police officers.
The chief of police, who quickly subdued all the organization members, nodded satisfactorily with a content expression.
“Take every one of them into custody!”
As the organization members were dragged away one by one in police carriages, the alley echoed with the sounds of footsteps and grumbling.
“No! Lord Ant!”
“We have to go save them! No, should Lord Ant come to rescue us?”
“But… where is Number 5?”
At that moment, Number 5 was watching the organization members being taken away from the attic of the house. Unfortunately, no organization member had the idea to hide inside the house.
Number 5 sighed in embarrassment. While it wasn’t pleasant to be the only one who escaped…
Someone had to stay behind to inform Lord Ant, and trying to hide the others risked being exposed.
Number 5 knew well that, despite having strength comparable to an ordinary man, the organization members were not discreet enough to stay quiet.
As the last police carriage disappeared, Number 5 stood up from a crouched position, hurriedly went downstairs to the first floor, and headed towards the front door. There was no time to waste.
For a few years, they had turned a blind eye to Madelaine Fah’s activities, and now suddenly they were raiding their headquarters? Even for the city’s security, it was unreasonable for the police to take such drastic action.
Clearly, someone was targeting Madelaine Fah. No, perhaps they were targeting Lord Ant.
“I have to inform Lord Ant.”
As they tried to open the door, the door exploded.
“Who… are you?”
In front of the shattered door stood an unrealistically beautiful man.
Silver hair that seemed woven by moonlight, eyes that sparkled like jewels. A nose and jawline sculpted as if by a god, and firmly closed blood-red lips.
While being active in Madelaine Fah and meeting numerous people, there had never been someone who gave such a shocking first impression.
However, apart from the outward beauty, the aura emanating from him was so intimidating that one would want to hide back in the attic immediately.
As 5 took a few hesitant steps backward, the man casually stepped into the house.
Glancing at the bewildered 5, the man smirked.
“I bet you’ve set up housekeeping with another man during my absence.”
Unaware of the English, the man, standing stupidly, began to wander around the house at will.
“Reyna Is…”
[End of the translated text] The man paused in his speech, ending with a small curse.“Reyna, where are you?”
Number 5 instantly recognized him. It was the person looking for Lord Ant.
When they first joined Madelaine Fah, there were many enemies jealous of Lord Ant’s power. However, from Viscount Madern to this man they were seeing for the first time, Number 5 became curious about Lord Ant’s true identity.
“She’s not here.”
As the man took a step closer, the overwhelming pressure made it hard to breathe, but Number 5 did not yield.
“I don’t know anyone named Reyna.”
It was partly true.
“Lies aren’t helping.”
In the blink of an eye, or rather, without even blinking, Number 5 found themselves pinned against the wall.
“Ugh!”
A terrible pain pierced through their shoulder. They struggled weakly, but it was futile against the strength of the man’s grip.
“Where is Reyna?”
The voice was so indifferent that it made one wonder if he truly wanted to know. However, the increasing pressure conveyed that the man was sincere.
“I-I don’t know.”
The man smirked.
“You’re quite desperate.”
“Ugh…”
While he smiled gracefully, the strength in the hand gripping the shoulder only increased.
“You’ll betray us anyway.”
For a moment, an indescribable emotion flashed in the man’s eyes, then disappeared.
Though it seemed like anger on the surface, underneath, it felt like blood flowing from deep-seated wounds.
They suddenly realized. Unlike Viscount Madern, this man might not have come to harm Lord Ant. Moreover, with his dazzling silver hair and deep red eyes…
Quickly, Number 5 shook their head. The man in front of them and Lord Ant, who had left alone to Viscount Madern’s.
They cautiously weighed each one, including Viscount Madern, who must be eagerly awaiting.
And soon, they reluctantly opened their mouth.
“Why are you looking for the leader of our Madelaine Fah?”
Despite the lingering pain in their shoulder, a peculiar laughter escaped between breaths.
“It’s for the noble master of Istira, right?”
