“I want to know, how old are you?” Brian asked suddenly.
"Hah?" Of course, this made Alessia surprised and confused.
"Sorry. It suddenly occurred to me. I need to know about you if I want to stay here. By opening up to each other there will be trust," explained Brian.
Alessia was silent when she heard Brian's question. The girl looked confused now.

Brian's forehead frowned.
"Twenty-two years?" Brian repeated.
The girl nodded slightly.
“Then we are the same age. What month were you born in?" Brian asked again. It was a surprise for Brian to find out Alessia's age.
Alesia's eyes widened, a sign that

Just like before, Brian had showered and changed clothes before coming down. Not only every time there is a new lead, but every morning Brian is so neat."Didn't read it?" Alessia came carrying a tray containing two cups of warm drinks as usual.The girl was still standing next to Brian, who just stared silently at a small box on the table containing a letter in an envelope.“I was just thinking, how can Secret get in and out without waking me up,” Brian said. “What about you, did you hear or see anything?” Brian asked, glancing at Alessia who was focusing her attention on the table."No," answered the girl briefly.

However, both are BMW types. The Secret seemed to know that Brian wouldn't like being given the sports-style car that conglomerate kids often show off to ensnare girls.

The man took a deep breath then got out of the car and walked towards the stairs connected to the lounge.Alessia greeted Brian with a happy smile, but then the girl's smile disappeared when she saw the blood stain on the corner of the man's lips."Oh my God. You're bleeding," Alessia exclaimed.Brian ignored him, just walked towards the sofa, and landed his butt there. Alessia followed without asking but was worried to see him.“I'll get the medicine box.
