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 .
