Chapter 580: The Unsettled Mood

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yarin’s POV:

It took a few minutes for the convoy to gather. I tried to find Lily in the crowd but couldn’t see her even when the convoy set off again.

I didn’t have much time. The parade was still halfway there. I couldn’t see that familiar figure, and I couldn’t suppress the anxiety in my heart.

“Hey, have you seen Lily?” I touched Heller, who was helping Denise put petals into the basket as I asked him to observe the crowd for me, “I didn’t see her. There are too many people. My eyes almost blurred.”

I tried to use my pheromones to determine Lily’s location, but no one would be rude enough to let their pheromones harass others on such a festive occasion. Flowers and perfume mixed up the surrounding smells, so I couldn’t even find a trace of the pheromone that had inadvertently leaked out.

After a long while, Heller said, “Me neither. Is Lily tired? Did she take the sightseeing bus to the destination first?”

“No, she won’t.” I carefully observed the crowd and muttered, “We agreed to spend the entire Moonlight Festival together. Lily is not someone who will break the promise. She will accompany the float.”

However, no matter how hard we searched, we couldn’t find Lily. I even forgot to interact with the crowd. I was so focused on finding Lily that the candy and flowers in the basket didn’t move for a long time.

“Focus, Yarin.” Heller quietly kicked me to get my attention. “There arc so many guards here. Besides, Lily is traveling with Kara. She will not be in any danger. Perhaps she had chosen a shop that she liked, so she was stumped by the specialties of the Moonlight Festival.”

Heller was being reasonable. However, I still couldn’t be reassured.

The face of the man who had been arrested appeared before me. His smile when he threw the unknown liquid was distorted and terrifying, and his entire body emitted an ominous aura.

Suddenly, I realized that I had overlooked a detail. Could that man be acting alone? Was he alone enough to prove that he had no accomplices?

If the other party had two or three people destroying different forks, what about the remaining one or two if one was taken care of?

However, I couldn’t be sure how likely it was. If that man had accomplices, something similar should have happened on the other two roads. However, the tourists didn’t look like they had been attacked, and the guards didn’t seem to have any signs of fighting…

Could everything be just my conjecture, and nothing happened?

“Look over there!” Denise suddenly pointed to a corner of the crowd. “Those people are so strange. Did the police arrest them?”

I looked in the direction Denise was pointing. A group of people was moving through a tiny gap near the building. There were guards and two men with their hands cuffed. One was someone he had seen just now, and the other was unfamiliar. However, it seemed that they were indeed the accomplices of that suspicious man.

They did not fit in with the happy crowd around them. Some people cast puzzled looks, the guards looked straight ahead, and the arrested people provoked the tourists on the roadside in exchange for more severe reprimands and restraints.

An accident also happened on the other road! Although Heller was not there, the guards could prevent everything from happening in time. Or maybe someone bravely stopped it before the disaster. I was afraid that person was…

“They were just some drunkards who were causing trouble.” Heller told Denise, “There are always some sc*ms who indulge their evil habits during festivals. Fortunately, the guards arrested them. Otherwise, they would do something with alcohol.”

The naive Denise didn’t doubt Heller’s words at all. I kept scanning among the guards but still didn’t see Lily.

“The parade will be over in about fifteen minutes,” Heller said in a low voice. “I’m also worried about Lily, but we can’t get off the bus to look for her now. Cheer up, man, you know Lily’s a headstrong girl, and if she knew you were distracted at the big event because of her, she’d blame herself.”

Heller comforted me in a low voice. Our roles seemed to be completely reversed on this day. I became the comforted one, while Heller became the perceptive one.

“I know,” I whispered. “But I can’t help worrying about her. There are so many people here. What if something happened to Lily and the guards didn’t notice it in time? Alright, I know the chances of this happening are slim, but I… Sigh.”

Heller just looked at me hesitantly. He tried to say something, but he stopped halfway.

In the end, he only sighed and patted me on the shoulder, pretending to be an adult. “You’re already at this age, Yarin. I should give you more support and understanding.”

Goosebumps rose all over my body as I instantly dodged Heller’s hand. I was wrong. Heller didn’t become smarter or more perceptive. He just became weird.. He became a weird person temporarily at the Moonlight Festival!
