323. Crying in Sorrow
The sky was gloomy.
Perseis wandered aimlessly through the streets.
Without encountering any obstacles,
some people around her were laughing hysterically, but other than their laughter, they had no other reaction, as if nothing else mattered.
Others walked briskly down the street, their faces' muscles twitching as they tried their best to hold back laughter.
Square saw Perseis's figure from afar.
The man didn't say anything, just expressionlessly opened the gate for her.
Perseis walked out of the city gate with lifeless eyes.
Seeing her desolate back, Square could not help but speak up eventually:
"Don't come back."
The young girl's figure paused for a moment before continuing to walk forward.
She didn't know how long she had been walking.
She stopped.
Lifting her head.
Hela stood motionless right in front of her, seemingly having been there for a long time.
A very long time.
The girl's voice was surprisingly calm:
"Where's Spade, the boss? Why isn't he with you?"
