They walked quickly off to the new meeting place which was the food warehouse where Jack, George and Harry were waiting. You can imagine how shocked they were to see Hellen who was with Peter and Rose. Jack looked up and gestured without being able to speak.

"He ..?" Harry frowned in surprise.

"New members." answered Peter lightly. "Come on, say hello .."

"Hello ..." said the three of them together.

"Introduce, I'm Hellen Winter .." Hellen said, smiling sweetly.

"I'm Jack Evans, in case you forget your classmate .."

"Harry Rosenbaum… I'm from the west tower."

"George Winslow ... I'm from the west tower too."

Finally without dispute, the six of them fled out of St. John through the back door that is usually opened for milkmen and vegetable deliverers. The village streets are bright and busy as people take advantage of the rare night market opportunities as a place for recreation and invite their family members to have fun. 

Lots of entertainment is offered at the night market, from shooting stands, magicians, fortune tellers, circus attractions, as well as various game rides such as carrusels and rocking boats.

"It's a shame the school forbids its students to go out to enjoy this festive folk entertainment ..." said Peter, he pointed to one of the booths and they saw some of their teachers gathered and laughing. "We have to be careful not to be seen by them."

"Where are we going first?" asked Rose.

"I want to ride the carrusel .." said Hellen with sparkling eyes.

"Me too." continued Harry.

"Carrusel is boring." Jack grumbled. "I'm going to the fortune teller stand..hihi ..."

"George?" asked Peter. George just smiled and shrugged. "All right, we split up and meet here in an hour. Remember! This mission is dangerous, if you are caught the secretary will deny you have anything to do with ..."

They smiled and nodded.

Harry accompanied Hellen to ride the carrusel and try every game that was there. George follows Jack who tries the fortune teller who is dressed up mysteriously. Sekeluarnya from the tent they just laughed out loud.

Rose and Peter try their hand at the archery stand.

"George is by the way quiet, huh .." Rose commented, stroking the tip of her arrow. He prepared to shoot with his bow. "He's not gay, is he?"

Peter smacked Rose's back with a glare. "Careless! Not all men have to look handsome like me ... George is indeed very calm, he is a great artist and does not like to interact with the outside world. His mother forced him to go to school here in order to hang out with other people."

Rose burst into laughter. "Manly? Peter, come on, please..hahaha ... '

Peter laughed too." It's true ... haha ​​.. "

Rose shot her arrow and hit the target 6 times, making the stand guard amazed and forced to hand over 2 dolls to him. Peter became curious and shot his arrows, unfortunately only 2 were hit right.

"You ... how can you do that?" He asked in surprise.

"Ah .. just instinct, really .." Rose replied lightly. They walked to the next stand, which is stand shooting. Again Rose shot all the targets.

"This is not instinct ... you are trained to do it." Peter said. He stopped and looked at Rose for an explanation. "By the way ... I also don't know anything about you ..."

Rose frowned. forehead did not understand. "Nothing special, really ... I often join my father hunting ... that's all. You want to know what about me? "

Peter shrugged." I don't know ... I mean you're not British because your accent is different ... you are from what country I don't know ... how your life is ... "

" I'm from a small country near Sweden ... Medion, if science You have a nice earth. "Rose smiled." My life is ordinary, my mother and father are very kind and I have a younger brother named William ... "

Peter shook his head." I don't know why you go to school here and why you always try to get expelled — This morning I was so sure you were serious. want to surrender but in the end can't bear to see us scared — I don't know who Danil is either… "

Rose suddenly turned cold." I also don't know anything about you and I don't care. "

She walked away leaving Peter stunned.

Peter immediately realized his mistake and ran after Rose.

"Hey ... listen, I don't want to ruin our friendship ... I'm sorry ... I won't ask any more questions."

His earnest gaze made Rose moved. He nodded. and smiled a little.

"I take your word."

They reunite with the rest of the Night Buggers, and together buy food and rest for a while before continuing their adventure. They come home a little over 1. Tired, but happy.

"Wow ... thank you friends ... Tonight I'm very happy." Hellen bowed khimad. "And thank you ... for making me a part of you ..."

Everyone felt bad and bowed back.

"Never mind Hellen… you're okay too."

"We're glad you came ..."

They all laughed happily. Peter and Jack immediately escorted Rose and Hellen to his dormitory, this time Hellen didn't dare to take the risk of climbing a tree so he and Rose tried to sneak up the stairs. Luckily everyone was sleeping and no one caught them. 

Hellen and Rose hoist a white sheet from their respective windows, signaling to Peter and Jack that they are safe. The two of them were satisfied, then went to their dorm. George and Harry who live in the west tower have also safely arrived in his room without interruption.

Ren stared at Vega with a confused look. He didn't understand why he said those words just now.

"Vega, I ..." He swallowed hard.

Vega removed Ren's hand from hers and moved away from the man on the sofa. "Do not touch me."

Vega's trembling voice pierced Ren's heart. He looked at the woman with his heart breaking into a million pieces.

"I don't want you to hate me," said Ren with a tone of despair.

He respected Vega's wish to stay away from him, so he didn't force his way to come closer. He just looked at Vega from where he sat with teary eyes.

"I want to know ... why," said Vega as she rubbed her brown eyes that were streaming with tears. She steeled her heart and stared back at Ren closely.

She had dreamed of seeing Ren when the kidnappers were about to remove her memory. She didn't remember what the man said to her at that moment, but she could remember his face now. 

In her dreams, Ren looked much younger than now. His handsome face seemed so cold and filled with revenge. Many times Vega would wake up drenched in a cold sweat due to her nightmares, and her heart ached so much.

The first few days, she couldn't believe that the person she saw was Ren. However, as her memory slowly recovered after Lauriel's treated her with potions and hypnotherapy, Vega started to think that all the events that happened between her and Ren since they first met in the Rhine were too full of coincidences.

Finally, she decided to confront her husband. She secretly went back to Almstad to ask Ren the truth. Vega didn't want to tell her parents because she was afraid that they would immediately punish Ren or intimidate him before the truth was revealed.

She asked for the veritaserum potion from Lauriel. Her grandfather was also the only person who knew the purpose of her going to Almstad.

Vega heard from Altaïr that Lauriel had various potions in his possessions. One of them was the veritaserum, which she could use to force people to speak the truth.

To avoid Ren's suspicion, she gave the potion to Linda to serve it with tea so that Ren would drink it. Once he took the potion with his tea, Vega would confront her husband.

Even though she had her own suspicions ... inwardly, Vega still hoped that her husband was innocent.

Even though Ren admitted that he couldn't love her, Vega really loved this man. They had been together for nearly two years, and her feelings for Ren had been rooted deeply.

When she heard Ren's words, which confirmed her suspicion that her husband was indeed involved in her kidnapping... Vega couldn't help but shed tears again. Her heart ached as if it was being torn apart mercilessly.

"Honey ..." Ren didn't know what to say. He was afraid that he would say things he shouldn't have said if he opened his mouth. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the teacup he took earlier.

His mind immediately went to work, and he became suspicious that the tea he had been drinking was no ordinary tea. Did Vega put something in it that made Ren unable to lie?

Oh, God…

"Vega ... please," Ren raised his hand and tried to reach Vega.
