A flash of shock flashed across his eyes, which was quickly covered up by him.
"I don't know." He said calmly.
"You really don't know me?"
"I don't want to repeat it again." His Japanese was a little jerky.
The man in red robe turned his head and stared in front of him. After a moment, three different photos were projected on the wall.
"Every time a foreign invader appears, I have come to see you, but your answer is always that I don't know him... Now I will give you one last chance.
If you miss this opportunity, the next time we meet will be when the death sentence is read out."
The man in red robe pointed at the four blurry photo screenshots on the wall and spoke word by word:
"Do you know them?"
Cao Yuan glanced at the four photos and continued calmly: "I told you, I don't recognize any of them."
"……very good."
A flash of anger appeared in the red-robed man's eyes. He closed the projection of his left eye and walked up to Cao Yuan.
"I hope you won't regret today's decision."
He turned around and walked out of the cell. The heavy prison door closed automatically with a loud bang.
Boom——!
In the dark cell, Cao Yuan was locked in mid-air, with messy black hair hanging by his face. He turned his head and stared blankly at the wall where the photo had just been projected. After a long time, a smile appeared on his chapped lips.
meaning.
"You guys can't get caught..."
…
Yokohama City.
"What did you say?!"
Beside the street, a man in a suit and leather shoes looked at the handsome young man in a windbreaker in front of him and froze on the spot.
"Excuse me, where can I become a Cowherd?" Lin Qiye repeated solemnly.
"Cow...Cowherd?"
The man was a little confused. He scratched his head and said with some uncertainty: "There don't seem to be many Cowherd restaurants in Yokohama. You can try your luck in Xicheng, but I still recommend you to go to Shinjuku."
"Where is Shinjuku?"
"In Tokyo."
"How do I get there?"
"Of course we take the JR Saikyo Line..."
"Thanks."
Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully.
In fact, he has no idea what a Cowherd is, and fundamentally speaking, he has no need to work for himself.
His goal is very simple, to secretly find out the situation in this country and to find other team members at the same time. According to Lin Qiye's judgment, since everyone sank into the sea together, the flow trajectories of the ocean currents are likely to be similar. In other words, maybe they
It also drifted to somewhere in this country.
But whether it is to find out the situation or find the team members, it requires time and money. At least he must be able to buy a few tickets instead of walking all over Japan.
Under the gaze of that mysterious existence, he could not use the forbidden ruins, and in order not to arouse the suspicion of the local police or others, he had better use a reasonable and legal method to get the money... After all, the water here is too deep.
, no one knows where the crisis is hidden, so it’s better to be cautious.
Since Yurina said that Cowherd made money quickly and it was easy for him, of course he could give it a try.
But now he can't even raise the money for the ticket to Shinjuku, and he hasn't put away the [Zan Haku] sword bag, so he needs some other way to make some money...
Lin Qiye walked to the bustling street, observing the streets on both sides and thinking.
It is already past nine o'clock in the evening, but the city center of Yokohama is still very lively. The high-rise buildings on both sides are flashing with neon light, various izakayas and beef hot pot restaurants exude a strong aroma, and high school students are running and playing on the road.
He passed by Lin Qiye and ran into the convenience store on the corner.
Lin Qiye stopped in front of the traffic light. At this moment, photos were scrolling on the huge screen at the intersection, attracting his attention.
"Evil villain: Ryota Ariyama, a wanted criminal at the level of [Hunting Sparrow], with a reward of 3,000,000 yen, and a reward of 500,000 yen for witnesses who report..."
"Evil villain: Taira Takashi, a [Yaksha] level wanted criminal, with a reward of 100,000 yen, and a reward of 30,000 yen for witnesses who report..."
"Evildoer: Haruki Amamiya, [Fierce Ghost] level wanted criminal, with a reward of 10,000,000 yen, and a reward of 1,000,000 yen for witnesses who report..."
"..."
Bright red warning tape surrounded their electronic photos, and the yellow word "evil" was written all over the warning tape, flashing constantly, as if giving them a conspicuous label, lighting up a corner of the black night.
the wanted?
[Yaksha], [Hunting Bird], [Fierce Ghost], what are they?
Doubts flashed in Lin Qiye's heart. When he saw the numbers behind the reward, his heart moved slightly and he had the idea of hunting down the wanted criminal...
But he soon gave up this idea.
Chasing a wanted criminal? Now he himself is the most wanted outsider in this country. Even if he really catches a wanted criminal and delivers it to the door of the police station, the police will then ask him to register his name and number to receive the reward...
Isn’t this sending yourself to your doorstep?
Lin Qiye shook his head and put this idea behind him. He waited until the green light turned on and continued walking forward.
Suddenly, his peripheral vision caught sight of the notice board at the door of the maid restaurant, his eyes lit up, and he silently stopped.
perhaps……
Is this work okay?
…
at the same time.
The other side of the city center.
The man in white robe with a blue halo in his left eye walked out of the dim alley and walked slowly to the middle of the road where traffic was flowing. He turned his head slightly and looked in the direction of Lin Qiye.
jingle--!
The faint sound of wind chimes came from his body, echoing softly in the noisy and bustling streets.
The noisy streets that were originally filled with trumpets, laughter and curses suddenly became quiet!
All vehicles stalled instantly, and all pedestrians stopped in place at the same time. No one dared to honk their horns, and no one dared to communicate. They turned back in horror and looked at the white-robed figure in the middle of the road, their bodies shaking uncontrollably.
The man in white robe didn't even glance at the passers-by. He stepped on the yellow double lines in the middle of the road and walked slowly towards the city center.
Every time he passed a car, the driver and passengers in the car would quickly get out of the car and kneel down respectfully in the middle of the road, with their foreheads close to the ground, saying with half respect and half fear:
"Meet the Oracle."
"Meet the Oracle."
"Meet the Oracle."
"..."
Not only the people in the car, but also the pedestrians on the sidewalk not far away, the customers and waiters in the store, walked to both sides of the street at the same time and knelt on the ground.
This busiest street in the center of Yokohama was deathly silent. As the man in white robe advanced, everyone was prostrate on the ground, like densely packed ants clinging there, not daring to move.
