Chapter 47

Marie and Kuto run to the big city as something is chasing them. Kuto don't know what happened but just following Marie.

"What is going on?" He asked while they are running.

"Don't ask! We must go away from that evil house!"

"Wait! What is going on? Tell me!"

Marie stopped when they are in front of a biggest cloth company. She was very sure that there's still a way.

"I'll tell you later... Let's sneak in!" Marie whispered.

"Sneak in!?" Kuto's eyes open wide. He really don't have an idea of what is going on. Marie pulled Kuto's hand and run through the company's door.

"Marie wait... We can't..." They were very lucky because the guard is sleeping or they will get a problem. Marie and Kuto walked in to the company carefully.

"What!? So where are they now?" Bonnie shocked.

"They run away... The queen is really dumb!" Black laughed.

"So...what do you plan?"

"Make her know what happened to his son... She will jump into the trap. And when she jumped into the trap...the king will also jump."
