Mo Fan was getting a headache. The Alps Institute was split into four schools, each with quite a large number of students. Even the teachers would not recognize every student in the school, so it was easy for an outsider to blend into the students.

“If only we knew what the person is after; it’s unlikely that anyone would do such a cruel thing for no reason,” Mo Fan said.

Mo Fan had the Dark Material. If he could discover the culprit’s aims and whereabouts, it would be extremely easy to deal with the situation once he tagged the person with the Dark Material. The problem was, Ceylan, Headmistress Perry, and Brianca did not have the slightest clue who the culprit was!

“They must be hiding something,” Mo Fan muttered to himself.

Mo Fan was walking around Faerun School. He did not keep an extra eye on the surroundings before, but he now noticed the school grounds were planted with a lot of Snow Lavender. These flowers were everywhere, like the sacred snow, something that the girl had been working on diligently for a long time.

She was such a lovely girl. What kind of grudge could the culprit be holding against the school, to murder an innocent girl in such a brutal way?

“Yu’e, you shouldn’t be walking around on your own. I heard from the patrolling Magas that we have to stay in pairs to avoid any trouble during this important time!” a girl’s voice came down from the stairs of a nearby building.

“It’s fine, she always told me that she had to finish it so that the others could see it. Since she can’t complete it anymore, I must lend her a hand. There’s not much work left,” another girl among the bushes of flowers raised her face and replied.

Mo Fan walked closer and soon saw the girl was half-kneeling on the ground, busy clearing some weeds. Her milk-white outfit did not have any embroidery, and was fully stretched by her round bottom, leaving not a single wrinkle on it, while her slim waist swayed slightly. Mo Fan was lost in thought upon witnessing the sight.

It was common to see such a beautiful sight at the Alps Institute. That being said, why did the girl look so familiar to him?

The girl suddenly turned around, as if she noticed that someone was watching her. Her hair was blocking her face and eyes. She naturally moved her hair away, revealing a not overly dazzling, but clean and good-looking face.

The girl was stunned when she saw the watcher was a man. After all, it was extremely rare to see a man at the Alps Institute. However, her eyes flickered with surprise when she took a closer look at Mo Fan’s face.

“Why are you here?’ Mo Fan pointed at the girl and blurted out in disbelief before the girl could speak.

“I was going to ask the same thing!” The girl rose to her feet and smiled. It was the same friendly and gentle smile that she always wore.

“Are you studying at the Alps Institute? You never mentioned it to me before!” Mo Fan was extremely surprised.

“Not long after I met you, I used my savings to travel to different places. I was thinking of visiting the Alps Institute as a tourist when I came to Switzerland, but I didn’t know the place was off-limits to outsiders. I wouldn’t have been allowed to enter if I hadn’t stumbled into a friendly student. When I came, they happened to be looking for a gardener. I decided to stay, since I had pretty much spent all my savings,” the girl explained with a smile.

“You make it sound so simple, but I know everyone that joins the Alps Institute isn’t an ordinary person. You are an open-minded girl, no wonder you can make up your mind that easily. So, are you planning to go back to New York?”

“I do like it here. It feels more like home than a noisy bustling city,” Li Yu’e said.

“Have you Awakened?” Mo Fan inquired.

“Mm, the Psychic Element… but it feels like I’m not really that talented,” Li Yu’e replied.

“That’s already quite impressive,” Mo Fan encouraged her.

The world was wonderful indeed; Mo Fan did not think he would meet the girl caught in the incident on a street in New York here at the Alps Institute. He was able to arrest the Ice Element Executioner named Philip with her help. Even though it was a coincidence he met her in the first place, he still had a strong impression of her.

The girl might look ordinary, yet she had a special demeanor, like a flower slowly emitting its faint fragrance in a secluded place. The way she could treat everything calmly was something that Mo Fan found quite impressive.

“Why are you walking around on your own? Don’t you feel like an alien here?” Li Yu’e asked.

“Mm, something bad happened, so I would like to settle it as quickly as possible. I can only roam around aimlessly, since I don’t really have any clues at the moment,” Mo Fan said.

“But why do I think your eyes aren’t focused on searching for clues?” Li Yu’e said ambiguously, looking at Mo Fan.

Mo Fan immediately realized he was caught red-handed checking out on her physique. He chuckled and said, “The two don’t contradict one another.”

“Is it about Amelia?” Li Yu’e asked.

“You know about it?” Mo Fan was impressed.

Headmistress Perry had already sealed off the news. The other students were told that someone had drowned in an accident, but Li Yu’e sounded like she knew about the reason behind it.

“She was afraid of water, she never went close to the waterfall. She was even cautious when using a watering can to water the flowers,” Li Yu’e said.

“I see…” Mo Fan was briefly lost for words. He believed it was unwise to tell Li Yu’e the truth.

“Someone is trying to get their revenge, right?” Li Yu’e asked.

Mo Fan was utterly shocked. He looked at Li Yu’e, wondering how she knew about it.

“Your expression told me that. Besides, didn’t you say you were looking for clues?” Li Yu’e went on.

“It’s really a struggle to have a conversation with Psychic Mages like you sometimes…” Mo Fan murmured.

“I wasn’t using any magic. It’s just a feeling I had, all things considered,” Li Yu’e answered. It was impolite for a Psychic Mage to read someone’s mind without consent.

“Forget it. By the way, how did you know about the Alps Institute? This school is like an old temple hidden on a mountain. Many Mages don’t even know it exists!” Mo Fan asked.

“The guy that tried to kill you in New York told me about it,” Li Yu’e answered.

“The Executioner, Philip?” Mo Fan blurted out in surprise.

“Mm, he was quite talkative. He liked to share his pain with others. I kept talking to him before you showed up so he wouldn’t lose control of his emotions. He told me how he betrayed the Sacred Hall of Liberty, and how much he missed his brilliant daughter. His daughter used to study at the Alps Institute, but she later thought the Parthenon Temple was more suitable for her…” Li Yu’e explained.

“No wonder! You’re quite impressive to be able to converse with such a wicked man. That’s great, it means you are so kind that you aren’t even willing to hurt a wicked person,” Mo Fan exclaimed.

Mo Fan did not know Li Yu’e was trying to keep Executioner Philip busy while she was being used as a bait to lure Mo Fan to him.

She was indeed an extraordinary girl. No wonder she was allowed to stay at the Alps Institute!

“I didn’t know that guy had a daughter, and she was from the Alps Institute…” Mo Fan mumbled to himself.

“She’s already dead. Philip watched her die right in front of him,” Li Yu’e said.

“You’ve been here for some time; do you know if anyone has a strong grudge against the school?” Mo Fan asked.

Li Yu’e shook her head.

“What a headache,” Mo Fan sighed helplessly.

“You aren’t familiar with things around here yet, right? I’ll come with you. Amelia has been planting the Snow Lavenders for a long time. There are only a few spots left, the culprit must have attacked her at one of the spots. I can guide you to those places, and you might find something useful,” Li Yu’e said.

“Was she your friend?” Mo Fan asked.

“She was like a little teacher to me. She taught me how to plant flowers while I shared things about the outside world with her. She was quite a fan of my stories,” Li Yu’e answered.

“Oh, I see…” Mo Fan noticed the hint of sorrow in Li Yu’e’s smile. Perhaps she had gotten used to facing everything calmly, so Mo Fan did notice her grief in the first place.

——

Li Yu’e led Mo Fan to the mountains to the west. However, they did not go far when the patrolling Maga with thick brows showed up with a bunch of other Magas!

Mo Fan only learned that the woman with thick brows was the captain of the patrolling squad. Her name was Jessie. Her facial features were a little rough, and she did not have a great temper, either!

“What are you trying to do, bringing so many people here? Do you really think I’m responsible for it?” Mo Fan asked with a confused look when he saw the patrol surrounding him.

“It’s none of your business,” Jessie went up to Mo Fan and suddenly reached out her hand to grab Li Yu’e firmly.

Jessie was engulfed by a dark aura. When her hand touched Li Yu’e, dark chains immediately wrapped around her, leaving her unable to move.

Mo Fan was startled. He looked at Li Yu’e, who looked all confused. She clearly had no idea what was going on.

“Hold it, hold it, why are you doing this to her?” Mo Fan demanded.

“We found traces of Amelia’s blood on her. Headmistress Perry has ordered us to take her away for interrogation. As I said, it’s none of your business,” Jessie said arrogantly.

“Are you kidding me? How is she even related to the incident?” Mo Fan said.

“We’ll decide once we interrogate her! Take her!” Jessie ordered the patrolling Magas.

“You are not taking her away until you give me a clear explanation! Why are you treating her like she is the culprit!?” Mo Fan stood in front of Li Yu’e, stopping the patrolling Magas in their path.
