At four o 'clock in the morning, Zhen Xi woke up with a start from her dream. She heard someone knocking on her door.
It was filled with anxiety and impatience.
When she opened the door, she saw Miss Huai Zhi, who was completely different from what she had expected. She was still a beautiful woman, but now she was filled with an unsettling sense of threat.
Her eyes were bloodshot and scarlet.
Her long hair danced slightly like flames.
"Miss Huai Zhi?" She froze on the spot and suddenly felt a little scared.
Huai Shi raised his hand and typed on his phone.
"I need to vent."
"Eh?!"
The girl exclaimed and took a step back. She was stunned and in disbelief.
"I, I know."
After a long time, she seemed to have made up her mind. Her expression finally calmed down, as if she had finally made up her mind. She straightened her neck and closed her eyes, "Please, please … I don't have much experience. Please be gentle!"
Eh!!!
Huai Shi's eyes widened. He was so scared that he almost screamed.
What the hell!
I just wanted to tell you that I'm going out, that's all!
What are you thinking?
Zhen Xi closed her eyes and shivered like a little quail.
Soon, he felt something hard being placed in his arms. It was heavy, huge, and scalding hot … It was like a small coal stove, and it was making noises.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a Crow looking at her with its head raised.
Then, there was a second Crow, a third, a fourth, until hundreds of Crows occupied the entire courtyard.
"I'm going out. They will protect you."
"Eh!!!"
Zhen Xi was stunned for a long time. She widened her eyes and screamed again.
She reached out and grabbed Miss Huai Zhi's wrist. She looked nervous. "Girls can't be so casual. Miss Huai Zhi, the most precious thing must be given to the person you love when you get married! If, if you have to do that, then, then come at me! "
¿¿
Huai Shi felt that he had been turned upside down.
Little sister, there's something wrong with you! What are you thinking?
With your body, if I punch you, you might cry until the end of the Chef's Duel!
He rolled his eyes and sighed. He typed again. "I'm just going to find someone to fight …"
"…"
Dead silence, an awkward dead silence.
Hina's pale face quickly turned red, and a strange whimper came from her throat, as if she was about to faint.
"I, I … I'm not, I didn't … I …"
She really wanted to say that she wasn't a shameless woman whose mind was filled with dirty things, but she didn't know how to explain it. She only wanted to shrink her head into a sand dune and hope that a lightning bolt would suddenly fall from the sky and strike her to death …
"Just think of it as me going out to buy an orange."
Amidst the chaos, she felt a hand on her hair. The hand ruffled her hair and told her, "Stay in the bedroom. Don't move."
She was stunned by the sudden impact.
"Miss Huai Zhi, you … spoke to me?"
It was indeed the same as she had imagined, a mature voice with a hint of hoarseness and gentleness. But it was too vague and indistinct, as if it was very far away, and he couldn't hear it clearly.
Yes, that's right. That's Motoko's voice.
After devouring so many calamities, Young Arbiter Ming's reflection had more or less grown … although this growth didn't seem right.
Could it be that Tongi, that bad girl, did something in there again?
Why did that voice sound so similar to hers?
Huai Shi sighed, took a step back, and waved goodbye to the girl.
He turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
In the silence, among the blinking Crows, Hina was still stunned, staring blankly at Miss Huai Zhi's back as she left.
She pressed down on her hair that she had just ruffled.
She didn't know why, but her face was red and hot.
But she still didn't understand what had happened.
She actually felt a little regretful.
Miss Huai Zhi was very hot, Miss Huai Zhi needed to vent, and then Miss Huai Zhi knocked on her door in the middle of the night … Then, shouldn't the next scene be Miss Huai Zhi violently pouncing on her and doing all sorts of unspeakable things to her?
As she thought about it, she couldn't help but giggle. Then, she suddenly felt her nose heat up, and blood flowed out.
Too exciting …
.
.
Three minutes later, on the other side of Riken's manor, in an empty and quiet tea room.
Outside the tea stove, an old man who was sitting cross-legged suddenly raised his eyebrows, glanced towards the north, and smiled strangely: "She's gone."
"He made a move just like that?" Hu Po raised his eyebrows, "This doesn't seem like his style, I thought he would keep touching until the end, and be too lazy to get involved in this trouble."
"She's gone, that's right."
Guo Shouque picked up the teacup, sipped the dark tea, and took a deep breath: "Although my sense of smell is delayed, and my sense of taste is incomplete, but this old man's sense of hearing is still at its original level … There are two heartbeats missing in the manor, and they flew to the sky, should be the location of Miss Hina's courtyard."
"Two?" Hu Po couldn't believe it: "Are you sure it's two? He still has Miss Hina with him? "
"No, Miss Hina's heartbeat is still there."
Guo Shouque drank the tea in the cup, and laughed strangely: "There's another heart in his body, another heart that doesn't belong to him …"
"Parasite? Or curse? "
"It's neither."
Guo Shouque shook his head, "That's a blessing that this old man has never seen before, from the abyss … No, it should be a 'blessing' comparable to the gods.
Although I don't know how big of a disaster this heavy blessing will attract. But, for Miss Hina, it shouldn't be a problem. "
"That guy …"
Hu Po sighed angrily, not knowing whether it was out of unhappiness, jealousy, or … helplessness.
After shaking her head, she looked down at the time on her phone: "Calculating the time, Ye Xue Ya should be in the capital by now?"
"Miss Ye always likes to do unexpected things, maybe she's already in Osaka or Edo … But, she probably won't get involved in the matters here in Nara."
"I always feel that Ye Xue Ya is the kind of person who likes to meddle in other people's business."
"That's right, but how do I put it …" Guo Shouque thought for a moment, then said: "For example, that child doesn't like to eat someone else's treat, instead, he likes to organize his own meal. Him being willing to come this time is already giving Xuan Niao face. "
"… Is it really okay to tell me this kind of thing?"
"Why can't I tell you?"
Guo Shouque asked back in confusion: "As the person in charge here in Nara, of course you should know these things.
Make the plan clear, and let the people who do the work know it clearly. Even if they have to die as a last resort, they should know what they are sacrificing for. Although Xuan Niao is a stingy old man, he's always been generous to the younger generation. "
"The company's atmosphere is really friendly."
Hu Po shrugged, not knowing whether he should feel honored or resentful.
"The benefits are not bad." Guo Shouque grinned, revealing a mouth full of loose teeth, and smiled very happily: "The hairtail this old man makes every year is very delicious, right?"
Dead silence, Hu Po's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"… You?"
"That's right, the Dongxia's dried hairtail is all imported from me, is that strange? I even specifically told them to give you the biggest share … Don't tell me Chu Hongchen took it for himself? "
"…"
After a long silence, Hu Po looked away: "The seaweed is not bad."
"Haha, this old man will get you more later."
Guo Shouque laughed happily, put down the teacup, and got up to leave.
When people were old, they had to take care of their health and couldn't stay up late like before. After washing up, they should go to bed at five o 'clock. This old man had always been good at taking care of his health.
But before he left, he turned back and asked: "Staying up late will hurt your stomach, do you want me to cook some porridge for you?"
Hu Po wanted to say no, but … the porridge he cooked was too fragrant, so she could only nod.
Watching the old man leave, she sighed, picked up her phone, and dialed the number of Tomorrow's News Editorial Department. Soon, a female voice picked up.
"Hello? Who is it? "
"I … I see Hu Po." She shook her head helplessly: "This is the mountain, there are no vending machines around … Is the phone not good?"
The female voice instantly became serious: "Miss Hu Po, the phone has radiation!"
Hu Po was speechless, only feeling that she would never come out … What radiation, you are Tomorrow's News! Would she still believe in this mess of old people's pseudoscience?!
Maybe in order to guard against the brain control of the Astronomy Society, these people wear tinfoil hats every day.
"Let me see, according to the special news service you ordered, yes, the first page of information on the key people in Nara City has already been compiled."
The sound of tapping on a keyboard came from the other end of the phone. Immediately after, he sighed and said, "Amazing, amazing. Right now, the city of Nara is gathering. At this critical moment, there are more than 400 ascendants wandering around the city.
Not only are there Yingzhou people, there are also many foreigners. There are even more wanted criminals … What are you doing? Fighting the Holy Grail War? "
"What's the Holy Grail War?"
"…" The woman on the phone was stunned for a long time: "You don't know? No, don't you Yingzhou people watch anime? Forget it, back to the topic, there are more than eighty people with a threat level of B or above. "
"What about those related to my relatives?"
"That's not a small number."
The sound of typing on a keyboard could be heard. "Brother Night Dew from the Enraged Group's' Thermal Union 'from Edo, Unclean Monk Kōying from the Cloud Nation, Million Gold Bruce from Africa, Dustin the Hammer, Nafen the Ice Stone, Zatoichi the Sixth, Yaksha Takeuchi from Shinano … Say, is Nara really alright? Is it okay to be so lively? "
"It will be even more lively before daybreak."
Hu Po sighed faintly. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said: "I have a piece of information for you."
"Hm? Exclusive news? I like it. "The woman tapped on the keyboard:" Name? Age? Gender … Be more specific, I can give you a discount. "
"Let me think, hmm …" Hu Po couldn't hide his bad taste, and finally thought of a nickname: "It's information related to the [Headless Witch] White Paper Motoko."
Soon, after a short exchange, a regretful voice came from the other end of the phone: "This news is D-rank."
"It's okay, when the price rises to A-rank tomorrow, just remember to pay."
Ignoring the other party's doubts, Hu Po happily hung up the phone.
In the silence, the kneeling samurai girl narrowed her eyes and stared at the night sky outside the window.
It was as if she could see Nara, who was immersed in the deep night sky, through the tall wall and the forest, as well as through the long distance. The bloody battle hidden under the turbulent water surface, and the depth charge that was about to fall from the sky, causing terrifying waves …
When that time came, everyone's expressions would be very interesting, right?
