Chapter 51 - On the train to Magnolia

“Thief!”

After Evan’s voice fell, Gildarts, Makarov and the others turned their gazes around, and looked at the brat who was caught by Evan.

“Damn it, there’s no other way!”

The thief knew that he had been exposed, but fortunately he did not hide. He took out a capsule from his pocket and stuffed it into his mouth.

In an instant, the thief’s world changed, as if time had stopped in the thief’s eyes…

“As long as there is a potion developed by the Bureau of Magical Development that allows me to use one second as thirty seconds, I will never be caught! Sure enough, being a thief is right!”

The thief smiled confidently, and then prepared to break free from Evan’s little hand holding his wrist.

The thief pulling back vigorously, but Evan didn’t move at all, his hand was still firmly on the thief’s arm.

“Huh?!” The thief was taken aback for a moment. He thought he didn’t use enough strength, and then began to pull desperately. However, no matter how hard the thief tried, he couldn’t break free from Evan’s wrist…

“What? There’s such a thing?”

After the thief found that he couldn’t break free from Evan’s wrist no matter what, he opened his mouth wide in surprise, his eyes full of disbelief.

“Damn it, if that’s the case, won’t I definitely be caught? Or else?!” The thief looked at Evan’s wrist, and felt ruthless. He took out a dagger from his pocket and pointed it at Evan’s wrist, as if he was about to strike, suddenly, he let go of the dagger in his hand.

“Never mind…… I’m just a thief. If I continue, it will be against my profession.” A trace of relief flashed in the thief’s eyes, as if he had given up resisting.

“For you are wise, in the end, you saved yourself…” Just as the thief was about to give up his resistance, a scene that made the thief’s hair stand on end happened. Evan, who was supposed to frozen in place, suddenly spoke.

“You can keep up with my speed?!” The thief’s eyes widened after hearing what Evan said.

“Isn’t that an obvious thing?” Evan said, shaking out all the things the thief had stolen, scattered them all over the floor, then let go of her hand, and said to the thief: “For the last five seconds, go to the guards and surrender.”

“Eh?! I thought you would let me go?!” After hearing what Evan said, the thief was taken aback for a moment. He thought that Evan would let him go directly.

“I only asked you to surrender, I wouldn’t let you go. If you know who we are, you should be glad. I just asked you to turn yourself in to the soldiers! Or I take you to the soldiers…”

When Evan said this, his voice paused for a moment. According to their Fairy Tail’s habit, they usually beat people violently before sending them to the soldiers. Normally, the soldiers would directly send the gangsters to the hospital for emergency treatment.

“I see……” The thief looked into Evan’s eyes, his expression trembled, and he nodded repeatedly.

“You take care of yourself, don’t force me to personally send you to prison…” As Evan said, he let go of the thief’s arm.

The thief trembled, watching Evan let go of his arm, and immediately walked away…

As the thief ran away, the pill’s effect also ended…

By the time the people around Evan came to their senses, they could only see things scattered in place and the thief who had disappeared into the crowd.

“I asked him to surrender himself.” Evan turned around and spoke to Makarov and the others.

“Since this is your decision, Evan, that’s fine! Anyway, have you found all the things that that kid stole?” Makarov smiled kindly at Evan.

“Hey, hey, if that kid doesn’t turn himself and continues to steal things, it’s all your fault, Evan!” Gildarts smiled meanly at Evan.

Obviously these two people also noticed what happened…

“…”

Regarding this, Evan didn’t say anything. He added a positioning and observation technique to the thief just now. If he saw that the thief didn’t turn himself in to the soldiers, or was still breaking the law, just like what he said, he will personally send the thief to the prison, but then it will be more than a simple matter of sending him to the prison.

Just as Gildarts looked at Evan with a half-smile, a man with a blond hair and wearing a suit with four or five bodyguards, picked up a wallet on the ground, “So it turns out that my wallet wasn’t lost, but stolen.” opened it and looked it over, then smiled slightly, and at the same time bowed slightly to Evan and the others to thank him: “Thank you for helping me find the lost items. Excuse me, is there anything I can do for you?”

“No problem, sir.”

“To be honest, the money in the wallet is actually fine, but there is a precious photo of my daughter in this wallet. This thing must never be lost…” The businessman with the golden hair opened the wallet and looked carefully at the pulled out photo of a girl with a golden ponytail, and he was relieved after confirming that there was nothing wrong with the photo, and then asked Evan and the others: “So I hope that I can use my way to repay everyone for finding this back. Is there anything I can do?”

“No……” Evan shook his head lightly.

He saw the blond girl in the photo in the businessman’s hand just now. The girl’s face made Evan thoughtful.

Just when Evan wanted to answer that there was no need to, Makarov covered Evan’s mouth. “To tell you the truth! We are planning to buy a train ticket to the town of Magnolia in the west of the Kingdom of Fiore!”

“Huh?!” The blond businessman was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, and at the same time said to his subordinates behind him, “Haha, I understand! Go and buy tickets for these benefactors, ask for the best seats. These benefactors along the way will be thirsty, so all food and water should be bought!”

“Yes!”

Several subordinates immediately ran to the ticket counter and bought tickets, food and water for Evan, Makarov, Gildarts, Ur, Gray, and Lyon…

“Thank you!”

Makarov watched the blond businessman shed tears of gratitude, and for a moment he didn’t know which side was the benefactor.

“Haha, it’s just a small effort, there is no need to thank me. Compared with your help to me, my rebate to you is not worth mentioning…” The blond businessman smiled lightly.

“Didi~” At the same time, the train station sounded the sound of the train leaving.

“The train is leaving soon! See you there!”

Evan and the others heard the roar of the train, and hurried onto the train.

“Goodbye!”

The blond businessman kept waving his hands towards the backs of Evan and the others. He didn’t know why, but he seemed to have some premonition in his heart. He had a premonition that one day, he would meet Evan and the others again, and that day doesn’t seem too far away.

“Interesting kid.” The blond businessman looked at the train going away, thoughtful, his premonition was always accurate.

On the train……

“Don’t grab my bento!”

“You have your share, don’t grab it!”

“Your eel is mine…”

“The bastard’s eel bento is only one serving per person. What will I eat after you ate it? Go eat your own!”

Gildarts, Gray, and Lyon kept fighting for the lunch boxes. Makarov, who was sitting across from the three of them, and Evan, and Ur were speechless for a while.

“How about you eat mine…” In order to try to stop this quarrel, Evan put his lunch box in front of the three of them.

“…”

However, the three just casually glanced at Evan’s bento, and then started to grab each other’s again.

It seems that the three of them only have each other’s bento in their eyes. This kind of food that can be obtained without robbing is not delicious at all…

Their focus has never been on eating bento, but on getting each other’s bento, and keeping the other party from eating bento…

“Are you three elementary school students?!”

Evan silently took back his lunch box. Although Gray and Lyon haven’t stamped the seal of the Fairy Tail guild yet, their synchronization rate with Fairy Tail has surpassed that of Evan who joined Fairy Tail for nearly half a year.

At the same time, in the small town of Foss, a young boy with fluffy hair and glasses, after making sure that Evan and the others were all in the car, took out a book, tore off a page, and folded it into a book. The little bird flew to the sky.
