Fukuzawa Sakura was soon released from the small dark room and the handcuffs on her hands were removed.

Fukuzawa Sakura rubbed her sore wrists and looked around, trying to find the place where the female student was being interrogated, but she found that the guard who helped her unlock the handcuffs did not leave. Instead, he stood in front of Fukuzawa Sakura without saying a word.

"Do you have anything else to do?" Fukuzawa Sakura asked.

The guard was wearing a helmet, so his face couldn't be seen clearly, but a muffled voice could be heard coming from inside the helmet.

"Master Hei invites you."

"Mr. Black?"

The guard said nothing, but gestured for Fukuzawa Sakura to follow.

Fukuzawa Sakura walked into the elevator and saw the guard take out a golden ID card and stick it on the sensor.

With a "beep", the elevator started moving, but none of the buttons indicating the floors lit up.

The numbers on the elevator screen kept jumping.

...

16

17

18

The elevator stopped on the 18nd floor.

Fukuzawa Sakura was a little surprised because the button in the elevator only went to number 17, so she thought that the building only had 17 floors, as the 17th floor was also the floor she had explored in the dark before.

Now, the elevator actually shows the 18th floor.

Fukuzawa Sakura looked at the guard through the reflection of the elevator, but unfortunately the guard's face was covered by a helmet, so no information could be seen from the guard's face.

The guard bent down slightly, extended his right hand, and motioned Fukuzawa Sakura to walk out of the elevator.

Fuze Sakura hesitated for a moment and said:

"Where is the other trainee Shinsengumi who came with me?"

"..."

The guard did not respond, but just kept inviting.

Fukuzawa Sakura looked outside the elevator. There was a red carpet on the ground extending from the elevator entrance to the depths. There was no end in sight, and beyond that there was endless darkness.

Fukuzawa Sakura walked onto the red carpet, and suddenly, she turned around and the elevator behind her had disappeared.

Fukuzawa Sakura looked around vigilantly. This familiar feeling reminded her of the elevator that appeared after she was killed by Dazai Osamu.

When Fukuzawa Sakura looked outside the elevator at that time, it was just like now, endless darkness and endless abyss.

However, at that time, Fukuzawa Sakura walked out of the elevator and appeared outside the office where trainee Shinsengumi were instructing in the blink of an eye.

This time, Fukuzawa Sakura walked out of the elevator and onto the red carpet.

Fukuzawa Sakura slowed down her pace, walked softly on the red carpet, and followed the red carpet into the depths.

The 18th floor is like a maze. At every fork in the road, the red carpet extends in three different directions, and the end of each direction is unclear.

Fukuzawa Sakura stood at the first fork in the road, thinking about the right path.

In the end, Fukuzawa Sakura decided to take the middle path, not for any other reason but because it was the right path to take.

The moment Fukuzawa Sakura stepped into the middle road, the white jade bracelet on her wrist began to heat up slightly.

Fukuzawa Sakura turned the white jade bracelet on her wrist thoughtfully, then took a step forward and continued forward.

At the second fork in the road, Fukuzawa Sakura pointed to the left intersection.

But as soon as he stepped onto the road on the left, the heat from the white jade bracelet on his wrist suddenly disappeared.

Fukuzawa Sakura touched the white jade bracelet and retreated to the fork in the road from the left. The temperature of the white jade bracelet returned to its previous state.

This time, Fukuzawa Sakura pointed to the road on the right, and the temperature of the white jade bracelet became hotter the moment Fukuzawa Sakura stepped into the road on the right.

Relying on the white jade bracelet for trial and error, Fukuzawa Sakura slowly walked to the end of the road - a golden door.

Fukuzawa Sakura reached out and touched the door.

Oh, pure gold!

When she felt the gold, Fukuzawa Sakura's eyes lit up. Even when the door slowly opened, she ignored it and kept knocking on the door, trying to scrape some gold powder off it.

Perhaps it was because Fukuzawa Sakura spent too long at the gate, or perhaps the owner of the gate was too stingy to let Fukuzawa Sakura scrape some gold powder, a cough was heard from inside the door.

"Cough cough."

Fukuzawa Sakura heard the urging tone in the voice and reluctantly knocked on the door one last time, then carefully placed the scraped gold powder into her trouser pocket.

After doing all this, Fukuzawa Sakura walked into the gate and took a look at the whole picture inside.

Inside the door is a large room that looks like a single apartment, with a dining table, bed, TV, sofa, shower... everything you need.

If she ignored the scene outside, Fukuzawa Sakura might have thought she was a guest at someone's home.

Fukuzawa Sakura raised her head and looked at the woman on the sofa.

The woman had burgundy hair and wore a black headband on her head. She was wearing a one-piece pajamas with a cute little tiger pattern on it and had a facial mask on her face.

Because she had spent some time with the exquisite Senkiri Leopard, Fukuzawa Sakura judged based on the smell and shape of the mask that this was the same OO antioxidant mask that Senkiri Leopard had used before.

Fukuzawa Sakura tilted her head and looked at the woman in front of her.

The woman in front of him seemed to have just noticed Fukuzawa Sakura's presence. She pretended to be surprised to see Fukuzawa Sakura, and then said hurriedly:

"Hey, why are you here? Please take a seat. It's a rare occasion to have guests here. How can I let you stand~"

After saying that, the woman stood up, rushed into the kitchen, brought a plate of fresh fruit and placed it in front of Fukuzawa Sakura.

Fukuzawa Sakura didn't refuse. She just reached out and took an orange and started eating.

"Mmm, so sweet!"

The sweet orange flavor burst out from Fukuzawa Sakura's mouth, and Fukuzawa Sakura ate one after another.

Seeing that Fukuzawa Sakura was eating with relish, the woman swallowed her saliva and reached out for the fruit plate.

"It's really sweet! So satisfying!"

The woman seemed to have forgotten the mask on her face and looked very satisfied while eating. Even the mask around her mouth was wrinkled because of her big facial movements.

Seeing the woman immersed in the world of fruits, Fukuzawa Sakura did not forget the purpose of coming here while eating.

"So what did you ask me to do here (chew chew chew) Well, this blueberry is sweet too."

"Let me try it (chew chew chew), oh wow, it's really delicious! What did you say, oh yeah, I called you here for that what's it called, what shi? Or something like that."

"(Chew chew chew) Haven't I finished speaking downstairs? (Chew chew chew) Haven't I been interrogated downstairs? (Chew chew chew) Why did you ask me to come over? (Chew chew chew) You shouldn't ask for special treatment."

"(Chewing, chewing, chewing) Whose good guy's heart rate doesn't move when being interrogated?"

Having said this, the woman put down the fruit in her hand and slammed the table hard.

"If others don't speak, do you think they are fools?"

Fukuzawa Sakura saw the fruit on the table shook because of the woman's force, then she put down the fruit and looked at the woman seriously.

"How did you know?"

"..."

Receiving the woman's condemning gaze, Fukuzawa Sakura raised her hands in surrender helplessly.

"Well, you can't blame me. After all, all I've met since I got here are idiots."

Fukuzawa Sakura thought the woman would be furious with what she said. After all, she was scolding an employee in front of the boss without considering the boss's face at all. However, unexpectedly, the woman nodded in agreement.

"You are right about that. Most of the people who come here are idiots, but there are a few who are not stupid and are smart. I feel guilty every time I see them."

"Oh? Aren't you their boss? What are you afraid of them doing?"

Fukuzawa Sakura looked at the woman sideways.

When the woman heard what Fukuzawa Sakura said, she suddenly panicked.

"How do you know I'm their boss!... Forget it, you're a smart guy, I can't fool you! That's right, I'm the leader of the Time Government! The boss of all the Shinsengumi! Black!"

After saying this, the woman raised her head proudly.

"Can I meet those so-called smart people? Or can I be assigned to be their trainee?"

"There's no rush for this. You'll see it sooner or later."

"Oh."

Fukuzawa Sakura responded coldly, then picked up the fruit and continued eating.

"Why are you so cold? Even if you have already guessed what I would say, you should still pretend. If you are so unsupportive in a real company, you will be punished!"

"So you fled the port mafia because someone was trying to frame you?"

"!!!"
