Reflexively, the black and white photo appeared in Amara's mind.
The happiest thing...
For a boy who lost everything in the disaster and had nothing left, could anything be heavier than putting on that coat?
I was happiest when I met you at that time...
Alfred!
But the light and shadows around it don't think so.
He pinched his forehead, widened his eyes, and watched himself sitting under the light writing letters.
Who is it for? Alfred.
The purpose of the letter? To ask him for money.
Amora Doria was lucky. He actually had the potential to become a superhuman, so he joined the "Light of Savior". During this period, he learned that the reason why this organization approached him was because of his special identity as the "adopted son of an agent."
"Don't feel guilty, Amera."
That's what the men told him.
"You feel guilty, but who will feel guilty for all those who died in the evil disaster?"
"We understand their motives, but we do not accept the way they carried it out."
"To be frank, among those executed by them, a considerable number were innocent and should have had a chance to survive."
"We were already there at the time... Unfortunately we were late because they blocked the news."
"With our limited manpower, we saved some people and stopped those lunatics from trying to spread the 'taboo', but this does not mean that we are fighting for the king."
The light of salvation is poor.
In order to hide their whereabouts, those who joined were all extraordinary people without any records or registration. They could not accept tasks issued by the state from formal extraordinary organizations, and could not make money quickly by relying on their extraordinary abilities.
So they can only disperse, each leading a grassroots gang. At the same time, the people in the gang are basically the refugees they rescued, and they lead these people to make a hard living.
The refugees don't know these secrets.
As the other party said, this is a burden that mediocre people cannot bear.
The purpose of refugees' existence is to exert pressure.
Because of the disagreements within the Light of Savior, some people believed that more radical means should be used to avenge the king and the nobles, but others felt that "execution" was ultimately for the purpose of saving more people. Not to mention that they could not do it with their current strength, even if they succeeded, it would only bring greater harm to the country.
So it eventually evolved into this ridiculous behavior... That's why so many refugees gathered in Wayne, using their existence and survival to "put pressure" on some people, while waiting for an opportunity to change the status quo.
But how to change?
I'm afraid even they themselves can't explain it.
Rebellion due to suffering.
Persevere because of conscience.
Reason has told them that giving up is the wise thing to do, but there are always some people who are unwilling to give up the beliefs passed down by so many people.
What is this belief?
They have not properly integrated into society, have not properly received education, and have not properly sat in those positions to think. This is certainly not something a group of mobs can understand.
They are the real walking dead.
Day after day, year after year, we hold on to hope, but in fact we are walking on a hopeless road.
This was their situation until Amera received news about the "crown".
This can be said to be a microcosm of the times.
Hitzfeld thought.
At the same time, the light and shadow changed again.
She saw another Amora appear in the upstairs study at 306 Yongen Road.
He shot the man he once loved most.
After he left, the man struggled to open the drawer, took out another gun from inside, tremblingly aimed it at the gunshot wound, and fired another shot at close range.

"The sickly Sakta doesn't want to be pinched by the heavy girl of the Ark"
Summary:
A heavy girl, literally speaking, is a girl who is heavy in love, a weakened version of a yandere.
What is it like to be loved by a girl?
Ashe looked at the dark halo above her head, then looked at the heavy women around her who were heavier than black holes, and felt that she had a say...
……
Based on the various information descriptions and the author’s own guarantee, it should be confirmed that it is Orange, an Orange article on the theme of porridge.
However, it should be biased towards Orange's harem, and it is very likely (based on Xiao Ai Li's irresponsible speculation) that it is that kind of twisted love, and there will be no shortage of Shura scenes.
It's really suitable for the theme of distortion lovers~Le~
But little Ellie felt that it was still not twisted enough.
If "pinching feet" is changed to "touching feet" or even "smelling feet", it will not only be more suitable for the subject matter, but there will definitely be more hentai gathered together.

Chapter 80 The Return of the Bullet
"Do not--!"
Seeing this scene, Amera's spirit burst into a desperate scream: "This is impossible! This is impossible!!!"
"Nothing is impossible." Hitzfeld turned his eyes slightly and looked at the man who finally died on the table. "Even though you are a superhuman, and he has known for so many years that you have joined that organization...but he is willing to give you money because he knows that you can save more people after getting the money, which in itself is saving himself."
Before he fell into the evil path, Amara was responsible for most of the support for the Charcoal Gang and the Fire Gang. Besides his own small treasury, his only source of funds was from his adoptive father.
Hitzfeld felt that with Alfred's upbringing, perhaps he was not sure what Amara was doing in the beginning, but as time went by, and this time was extended to more than ten years or even decades, he must have known that every time he remitted money, it would eventually be used to help the surviving victims.
Then this is exactly his redemption... His depression and guilt are exactly related to this incident. You know, as the only two full-time detectives left in Kuroki City, all the work after the disaster was presided over by him and his wife.
This task included "clearing out all those who might spread the curse", and considering the shortage of manpower during that period, it is possible that Alfred personally shot and killed a group of disaster victims. There might even be Amara's real father among them.
Maybe that was why Alfred had adopted the child, Hitzfeld thought, and felt that if he hadn't done so at the time, he would have risked immediate corruption.
Then this part of the logic makes sense.
Why did Alfred, as a Shadow Lion agent, allow his adopted son to do such a thing and even give him money?
Because he didn't think Amera was doing anything bad, because the portraits of the disaster victims that Amera ultimately provided for overlapped with the portraits of Amera himself - they were all the people who had been harmed a second time by the country in the evil disaster, and they were also the group of people that Alfred felt most guilty about.
So why didn't Alfred just report the matter?
After all - what he did was not a bad thing anyway. No matter what, his identity was Shadow Lion agent, a secret police supported by the state. He had the responsibility and obligation to report this situation, but why didn't he do it?
The answer is now very obvious: because he investigated Amera, he used his agent skills to reversely investigate the existence of the "Light of Savior" organization through his adopted son, and then he discovered that this organization was just messing around.
Yes, it's "nonsense".
The roots of the Light of Savior have now surfaced. It is a very ordinary supernatural organization that is not officially recorded.
Without exception, all official members of this extraordinary organization come from the groups of disaster victims and refugees who have escaped "secondary harm", that is, who have escaped execution after the disaster.
Most of them have lost important people due to cruel executions, so although their abilities are not very strong, they are extremely united, and every new member joining the organization vows to take revenge on the source.
There are two sources for this. One is the Eclipse Church, which caused the disaster. The other is Sarah, who treated the victims brutally and executed anyone with the slightest suspicion.
It is precisely because of this unity, and... to put it bluntly, Hitzfeld, it is also because they are weak enough, so weak that they hardly need to be given special attention, that the title of "Light of Savior" has not been passed on to the upper level.
Who would care about a group of novice spirits who shout in their hearts that they want to rebel every day, but in fact only dare to bring disaster victims and refugees to the outskirts of Wayne to live like rats in the gutter?
From Amara's memory, this organization has existed since 1943. After decades of development, there has been no major movement, and they have even split internally. Amara's management ability is so poor that a group of disaster victims split into two gangs for the second time. Isn't this just nonsense?
In the end, the "Light of Salvation" accomplished nothing, let alone saving the world or seeking revenge. They didn't even have the courage to "ask for an explanation," because every time they wanted to gather together to expose the organization, they had to hold a meeting, and every time they held a meeting, there were people who thought that now was not the time.
They said... their power was not strong enough, and if they rashly jumped out to ask for such things, those in power would swat them to death like swatting a fly.
They also said that the scale of the refugees was not large enough, and that the sudden outbreak was not enough to shock the palace, so how could this demand be achieved? What they wanted to propose was a legislative demand for "a new law on post-disaster executions"!
They did not trust the nobles, so they did not think of seeking funding from them.
So this group of people have been making trouble for decades, and the only thing they have accomplished is to rescue the victims and refugees who were about to be executed after one evil disaster after another.
They should have come up with a method to distinguish who is really polluted and who is really not polluted.
Of course, they must have made mistakes sometimes... Maybe every mistake would cause serious damage to their internal vitality, which would explain why they could never develop, because they kept losing senior staff.
After finding out that the Light of Savior is such an organization, Alfred decided to help them hide it.
They are so harmless.
A group of pitiful people gathered together. Some of them were more realistic and realized that their dreams were shattered early on, so they quit the organization and integrated into society.
The oath they had made and their identity as co-victims ensured that they could keep the secret, because it was not only a secret, but also a scar deep in their hearts that would never heal.
What about others? They choose to stick with it, lead the remaining people who are willing to stay, repeat this farce, muddleheaded, and gradually grow old in the days without seeing hope.
Alfred must have thought about it - he could report the matter.
Once this is done, the farce will end immediately. Sarah will react like a homeowner who finally discovers that there are rats in the remote corners of the house and quickly clean them up. Those who should be imprisoned will be imprisoned, and those who should be executed will be executed...
But that's not what he wants.
Precisely because he had been an executioner, he knew that their demands were actually reasonable.
Their methods were just wrong...but was this really a mistake worth paying for with death?
If Hitzfeld were to judge, she would say it was the fault of the times.
It is the suffering brewing in this Gray Fog Age and Gray Fog Era, and the conflict caused by this suffering and Sarah's idea of protecting more people. These people are just victims caught in the middle. They are not wrong, and Sarah's approach is not wrong either.
Should we cancel the execution just because we sympathize with them?
It would be fine if there was accurate detection technology, but at least decades ago Sarah did not have this capability, and any mercy might spread the local disaster to the whole country, and civilization would be subverted and destroyed.
But Alfred couldn't see the matter from her perspective. Maybe he felt something was wrong, but he couldn't explain why.
Then he could only hide it.
Due to restrictions on Amara, he never granted him the right to use firearms. Therefore, the damage caused by the first shot was not enough to kill him immediately. The bullet even got stuck in his body because the low-quality pistol that he got from nowhere could not provide enough kinetic energy for the bullet.
But if he died like this, Amera would be exposed.
So he struggled to take out his gun and fired another shot at the wound, using the close-range bullet to blow the place to pieces and fake the scene to make it look like the deceased committed suicide.
Hitzfeld knew it the moment he saw Amera.
And now, Amora herself understood.
He finally realized that he was able to move freely during this period because Alfred helped him deal with the scene. The legendary Shadow Lion was not as incompetent as he thought and could not even find any trace of him. They were misled about the direction of the investigation from the beginning, and all of this was out of that man's love for him.
The memories disappeared, he fell to his knees, and like a stray dog, he pounced on the photo album with his hands and feet, turned to page six, and paused.

Chapter 81 "War"
All of Amara's persistence was shattered in the face of the truth. He decided to confess to the detective in front of him that he no longer intended to hold on to his so-called dream.
