On the following day, the weather was sunny, perfect for murder and robbery... No, I mean perfect for going out for a hike.

To wait for the guards to relax, we had lunch early and sneaked into the station half an hour before the guard shift change.

In fact, we just walked in boldly, because no one would expect us to leave by train now, especially after what happened yesterday.

And the more important thing is that the investigation was focused on the two members of the Marshall family, so they let us, with our black, purple, and red hair, pass without even looking at us.

After sitting in the train compartment, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, I can relax for a while.

As the train smoothly departed from Tian Si City, I looked back at the city I had been in and out of several times, and couldn't help but sigh at the boring struggle between these nobles.

If you want to fight, then fight. Don't constantly think of kidnapping others. What kind of quality is that?

But after this incident, there should be more bodyguards around the Marshall family members. Most likely, we won't have any trouble when we arrive at school.

Looking at the three people inside the compartment, Aliyah and Oyado were sleeping soundly while leaning against each other. They must have stayed up late chatting with Ryuuko last night.

However...

On the other hand, Ryuuko seemed energetic at this moment. Every now and then, I would see her casually glance at someone passing by, and then quickly avert her gaze.

And this only happened when someone passed by.

I thought for a moment and suddenly asked,

"What color was the second woman who passed by our door just now wearing?"

"Blue."

Ryuuko answered without hesitation.

I was taken aback. To be honest, I didn't even remember the color of the person's clothes. I only remembered that it was a woman.

It seems that Ryuuko, as an assassin, has been trained very well. And for an assassin, having good observation skills is crucial.

And Ryuuko has already achieved this, and I have to say, she has done it very well.

Well, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

I just instinctively feel that Ryuuko becoming an assassin is not from her own desire, but because she was trained to be one. She didn't choose to become an assassin, but became one. Just like Oyado, who already has implanted assassin memories, if she had been trained to be an assassin, she would definitely not be here laughing with us.

However, this is only my own judgment. The truth is probably much more complicated than I imagine.

Of course, I can't know it now.

I don't know why I offered to help Ryuuko find the person in the photo, but since I've brought it up, it's better to finish it.

And when we meet the person in the photo, we can consider what to do.

If we can prevent Ryuuko from killing, maybe we can make her stop on this path and become a normal person.

Of course, I'm not a god. Such matters should be considered later. Right now, I should think about what to do after arriving at the academy.

Although I was called to the academy as a substitute teacher, to be honest, I don't have much experience in teaching. All I can do is repeat what's written in books.

I have no idea how I'm going to do it...

Well, I can only take it one step at a time. Besides, there's Ryuuko who's waiting to kill someone by my side. She definitely won't make it easy for me to teach. So, I'll just handle the situation when it comes.

The train was fast, although not as fast as those maglev trains, but compared to regular trains, it was much faster.

Before long, after passing through a large forest and a canyon, we could already see the city walls ahead through the windows.

On top of the blue flags, the majestic figure of the Water Dragon was constantly dancing.

It seems like the train is not slow at all. We've already arrived at the Imperial Capital in just three hours.

The Imperial Capital of the Witte Empire - the city of Poldo, the earliest city of the Witte Empire and the birthplace of the Claudia family, the royal family of the Witte Empire.

Although I have been to the capitals of various countries, the appearance of this city still amazed me.

Not to mention the wall with water magic ripples, those floating water balls above the UN Story Imperial City are enough to make people marvel at this country...

How much magic crystal has been wasted on these strange decorations? Really, if they have so much money, just give it to me, why waste it?

In my mind, I complained about Anne's father. We have already passed through the passage above the city gate and arrived directly at the imperial capital's station.

However...

The station doesn't seem as bustling as I imagined. Although I see people, I find that they are all standing far away.

Is this too orderly? Is it a precautionary measure to prevent accidents?

The train is already stable. The four of us stood up and prepared to leave.

And just at that moment, the door of my compartment suddenly opened with a bang. I turned my head and saw Princess Cher, Yaling, Pure White, and a smiling Blanche standing at the compartment door.

"..."

We were silent for a moment, then I scratched my head and said, "Oh, what a coincidence, you're here too."

"Yeah~ thanks to someone, we can go to class again. Isn't it a coincidence, Teacher Lin~"

"Huh...?"

"So, Teacher Lin~ we're here to pick you up for class. Aren't you touched~"

"Hey hey hey, wait a minute. Aren't we classmates, not teacher-student relationship..."

"It doesn't matter, you acted as a substitute teacher, didn't you~"

While Princess Cher was laughing, she grabbed my hand directly.

What strength... have you increased your attack power so much?

She dragged me off the train, and soon, there were more familiar faces outside the train, Bai Yueguang and the others, Ms. Mary... Well, your welcoming formation is really grand.

"Good morning, everyone..."

"Of course. Let's go, Teacher Lin, let's go and report to the academy."

After saying that, under the friendly gaze of everyone, I was dragged onto the carriage and headed towards the Imperial Academy.

A million curse words ran through my mind, but I couldn't stop the carriage from moving forward.

This is not good...

I have a feeling that my life from now on will not be good...
