4:30 am, the other side of the city.

A crescent moon slowly peeks out from the dark clouds, and the old mansion, hidden in the night, shows its crumbling face. Under the layers of boston ivies and vines are the peeling walls. Behind the iron gate, the courtyard is littered with dead leaves, the old fountain had dried up, and the griffins on both sides had broken wings and claws.

The whole building has an odd and grim aura.

This is the Amber Pavilion, a mansion in the far suburbs of Flower City that once belonged to a wealthy merchant and had been empty after the rich merchant committed suicide due to business failure, and rumors of a haunting gradually spreaded, and it was completely abandoned after a long time.

By now almost no one knows that there are still people living in this mansion.

Now it belongs to a young girl named Jiang Li.

Deep inside the mansion, in the large room, on the rose-colored bed, Jiang Li was sleeping.

Her long eyelashes fluttered lightly, a few drops of sweat on her forehead, and from time to time, her mouth let out soft sounds when she’s dreaming, obviously sleeping very restlessly.

"Ta-da-da-da-!"

The soft sound of high heels hitting the marble floor echoed in the corridor, the brass door handle gently turned, and the dark solid wood door was opened.

The little maid dressed in a classical maid's outfit entered the room and came to the side of Jiang Li's bed and bend her body with a respectful look.

The little maid didn't make any sound, but Jiang Li suddenly woke up as if she felt something, and the moment she opened her eyes, a scarlet agitated light flashed in her eyes.

The scarlet glow only lasted for a brief moment before it slowly receded like an ebbing tide, and her eyes returned to their aura-filled aquamarine color.

The little maid said, "Miss, C-level energy alert."

Jiang Li fixed her mind and said indifferently, "Do I need to go even for a C-level energy alert?"

The little maid didn't say anything, just shook her head gently, indicating that she wasn't sure.

"What place?"

"The direction of Everlasting Road."

"Hey, help me change my clothes." Jiang Li Liu sighed softly and sat up.

The rose-colored duvetslipped off her body, her hairhanging down like a waterfall, covering her snow-white, jade-like body. The slender but exquisite curves were vaguely visible.

"Yes." The little maid answered, then helped the thin and petite girl get up and walked to the chair in front of the dressing table and sat down.

By the light, one could see the reflection of Jiang Li's figure in the mirror, with long silver hair, perfect oval face, and a small, thin body that makes people adore.

It's a pity that this delicate doll-like girl is not so perfect.

Her long and slender right leg was made of metal from the knee down, and the silver shell of the artificial leg was engraved with strange runes, glowing with a light blue light. The little maid helped Jiang Li comb her long hair while asking in a low voice, "Miss, which one do you want to wear today?"

"Just wear the one you bought two days ago, by the way, fetch my cane for me, change my clothes and I'll go straight away without eating anything."

"Okay, miss."

......

Twenty minutes later, Flower City, Chang Sheng Road.

Several police cars were parked next to the old building, a barrier was pulled up in front of the entrance to the building, and the red and blue police lights flashed non-stop.

Four people in police uniforms were carrying a stretcher out, covered with a white cloth, and from the outline under the cloth, it could be seen that there should be a female body under the cloth.

Just in a while, a black car slowly came, parked at the side of the road, see the car drive over, the person-in-charge immediately to meet up.

The windows slowly rolled down, revealing the young girl's pale face , her eyebrows slightly frowned, indiffererntly asked to the person-in-charge, "What's going on?"

Inside the dimly lit car, the girl could vaguely be seen wearing a silver badge, shaped like an owl on her chest.

The Mourning Barn Owl, that is the unique badge of the Night of Justice Association.

The Night of Justice Association is a semi-official organization composed of spiritual abilities with special powers, specializing in handling all kinds of things related to kaidan.

Outside the car window, the person-in-charge of the scene took a look at the badge on Jiang Li's chest and smiled helplessly, "It's a strange attack, we can't handle this."

"According to the rules, after confirmation, we have to notify the Night of Justice Associationat the first time."

"But the cadre on duty tonight is not me." Jiang Li said, sounding a bit weary.

"I know it's Old Bai, we notified him, he's already here, right up there, he's the one who told us to notify you to come."

She appeared nonchalant, Jiang Li inquired coldly, "Are there any witnesses?"

"No."

"I see." Jiang Li nodded thoughtfully.

An attack without witnesses would be a lot easier to handle, saving a lot of effort needed to stifle the rumor mill.

Thinking, Jiang Li turned around and gently patted the back of the driver's seat and said, "Hua, I'll go up and take a look."

"Yes, Miss!"

The little maid who was driving the car answered obediently and hurriedly got out of the car and opened the door for Jiang Li, while handing her the black cane with a silver unicorn decorated on top. Jiang Li took the cane and got out of the car, and told the little maid, "You don't need to follow me up, wait for me downstairs for a while." Then she walked alone towards the building.

The petite, lean body wore a slim blazer lined with a white shirt, and under the black double-breasted, high-waisted skirt, the diamond-checked black silk nicely covered up the flaws in her legs, but it couldn't hide the difficulty of her forward footsteps. This is not the first time I've ever worked with her, but when I saw her hobbling back, a feeling of pity rose in the heart of the person-in-charge.

He sighed lightly and said to himself, "Obviously, apart from her eccentric personality, she's a pretty good girl, it's just a pity ......"

"Humph!" The person-in-charge have not finished his word, then heard a cold hum from the side, look follow the sound, the little maid glared round eyes, puffed up at him, fiercely said, "Our lady does not need you to pity!"

The person-in-charge froze, smiled and scratched the back of his head, "Ha, ha, ha, this is really ......"

......

Chang Sheng Road is located in the remote area, neither by the business district nor by the school district, only few people are living here, almost all are some just started working, some young people who want cheap rent. The residents in the apartment building were very few, and after a simple evacuation, the whole building was empty. Jiang Li walked all the way through the quiet corridor, and only heard the soft sound of high-heeled shoes hitting the ground.

The scene of the murder was not big, it was a one-bedroom rental house with simple decor. The first time entered the door, Jiang Li smelled a strong smell of blood coming to her face.

There was a man who had arrived in the house first.

He is a very handsome man. His face was both soft and masculine. He had white skin, long neck, and his eyes were like cold stars on a winter night. He wore a dark brown classical suit, wearing a silver owl on his chest, the lapel slightly open, in the exposed white shirt collar, embroidered with a scarlet rose, the whole person exudes a poet-like romantic, cowboy, but also a little swordsman-like stern temperament. The man who was such a playboy was squatting in front of the bedroom eating cup noodles without any concern for his image when Jiang Li arrived. The fork was held in the hand with orchid finger, and the noodles were fed into the mouth in large mouthfuls, eating with great appetite and splashing the soup all over.

He seemed like didn't even care that a few minutes ago there was a corpse lying next door in a gruesome state, almost drained of blood.

Hearing the sound of footsteps in front of the door, the man put down the cup noodles in his hands, grabbed the yellow and black leaflet in his hand and wiped his mouth, raised his head, and gave a warm smile to Jiang Li.

"Ha! Finally, I'm hungry, so I ate something first, I don't think you'll mind, right?"

Jiang Li's eyes well undisguised display in her disgust, ignoring the man's untamed question.

"Bai Kai, I'm not on duty tonight, you called me to come over, you must have your purpose, tell me what you found out?"

"Tch, being called by the full name of a junior, Ireally feels offended! You can at least call me senior, OK?" Bai Kai a face of aggrieved and spread his hands, "What's more, as a senior, I'm just looking out for your best interests, so called you to come over!"

"For me?" Jiang Li frowned.

"Of course, haven't you always been in charge of hunting down Twiligh Girl?"

"This attack is related to Twiligh Girl?"

"That's right." Bai Kai sat up straight and took out a handful of pale hair from his jacket pocket and said, "Look, rabbit hair!"

Jiang Li looked at the pale hair in Bai Kai's hand, nodded thoughtfully and said, "Is it that rabbit again?"

Twiligh Girl is a strange rumor of a magical girl species spreading among Flower City.

It was rumored that she was a maiden in a gorgeous long dress, as if she came out of a fairy tale, and would appear at dusk, wandering around the city with a parasol.

She would let out a series of discordant screams to those who were attracted by her beauty and thus came close to her, and those who heard her voice would go insane and fall into madness, losing control of their souls and becoming her servant.

Six months ago, Jiang Li killed Twiligh Girl with her own hands, but she seems to come back recently.

Lots of times, kaidan cannot be erased once and for all, as long as there are people who still firmly believe in their existence, they have the possibility of reappearing.

The cadres of the Night of Justice Association can only kill them over and over again so that they can't cause damage until they are completely forgotten.

Mr. Rabbit, on the other hand, is the only one left of the servants created by Twiligh Girl, and it has recently created three murder cases in a row, where the attackers were all people with the potential abilities to become a psychic. The reason is that if the kaidan deliberately conceals its presence, only those with psychic powers or those who have the potential to become psychic powers can see them.

These people are well screened from ordinary people, because if the kaidan deliberately conceals its own existence, only those people with spiritual power or potential can see them.

The blood containing spiritual energy is like a poison for those kaidan. It has a strong allure and can nourish their power growth more than the blood of ordinary people.

"If you see it, you will be eaten!"

This phrase, which is often said to newcomers within the Night of Justice Association, is not just a joke.

It was also because of Mr. Rabbit's frequent activities that Jiang Li concluded that Twiligh Girl was about to awaken and she needed the blood containing spiritual energy as a sacrifice to restore her power!

Bai Kai bristled, "Yes, I know you've already killed that rabbit, but as long as there are still stupid people who believe in such nonsense as [Rabbits are a symbol of medieval evil], it will come back again, won't it?"

"I know what you are talkingabout, about the files on tonight's murders, I'll see them later. I guess you didn't just want to talk about these when you called me to come here, right?" Jiang Li said coldly.

"I called you to come over, is to tell you that I suspect that Twiligh Girl is not awakened anymore, and the recent attacks have nothing to do with it." Bai Kai explained with a serious face. "It's the rabbit building up its power, trying to get rid of its master's control and become a new witch on its own."

Jiang Li frowned, "Do you have any proof?"

"Yes!" Bai Kai raised a finger and said, "First, it somehow woke up one step ahead of its master, which is something very abnormal."

As he spoke, Bai Kai held up a second finger, "Second, judging from the residue of spiritual energy at the scene, it has basically advanced from level C to level B."

"Which means, if we don't hurry up and stop it, a new magical girl is about to be born in Flower City, and I'm really kind of curious, what kind of kaidan it will turn into if it succeeds in its advancement! Bloody Butcher Rabbit Girl?"

Hearing this, Jiang Li's face became serious, once each Witch species' kaidan was fully formed, the lowest energy reaction was close to level A, and the damage it could cause was unimaginable.

The Twiligh Girl that Jiang Li had once dealt with also only had an energy reaction of level B close to level A , yet it created a tragic case where hundreds of people lost their lives.

So, to prevent a witch being born would mean saving at least dozens and hundreds of lives!

After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Li nodded slightly, "Hmm, I know, I'll keep an eye on it." After saying that, she turned around and walked away with staggering steps.

Looking at Jiang Li's departing back, Bai Kai rolled his eyes and muttered in a small voice, "A kind and well-intentioned reminder, not even a little thanks, how indifferent!"

"In the future, if my children are looking for a wife, they must not find one like this, what's the use of looking pretty? Who is not good-looking? Personality is the most important thing!"

"Heh, do you have a wife?" Jiang Li's voice ghostly floated in from the corridor.

Bai Kai's expression gradually stiffened, his mind changed, and he fell into contemplation.

He realized that he had no children, no wife, even his only friend was dead, and his life was bleak ......
