Chapter 253 Entering the seventh level, the killer plays house (4)
"Is everything solved?"
"Since it's a problem? Is there any problem that can only be solved half way?"
A brief silence.
"OK."
After saying this, Feng Molan hung up the phone and lay back gently on the chair. The evening wind blew the curtains and made a rustling sound.
From the angle where he was lying on the chair, he could just see through the gaps in the curtains that the glass walls of distant buildings under the setting sun were dyed with warm yellow twilight. The busy city during the day seemed to suddenly become careless at this moment.
Getting lazy.
This is a two-story building in Shitamachi, Edogawa District. It is neither big nor small. The rent is 150,000 yen per month, which is not low, but it is within his acceptable range. It is mainly quiet around and close to the tram station and transportation.
convenient.
It was getting late, and Feng Moluan watched as the afterglow of the setting sun slid through the gap in the curtains towards the corner of the wall.
After a moment of silence, he glanced at the advertising card on the table, picked up his cell phone and made a casual call.
"Hello, is this a cake shop?"
"Yes, yes, yes, birthday cake."
"How old are you? Oh, he looks like eight years old."
"Okay, I'll go get it in half an hour."
"."
After hanging up the phone, Feng Moluan prepared the things he needed to take when going out and started changing clothes.
Finally, I walked to the door to change my shoes.
There is a potted green plant behind the door, whose scientific name is Silver Queen Dieffenbachia, also known as "Silver Queen".
"Silver Queen" This is Fumaran's friend, his only friend, who is always happy and never asks questions.
"Two people" also have the same hobbies.
Bask in the sun.
Many people think that a killer like Feng Moran, whose codename is "Shadow", should hide in the shadows his whole life.
This is not the case.
Feng Moluan likes to bask in the sun, and when the weather is sunny, he likes to put on ordinary clothes, wear that ordinary face, and walk on ordinary streets to feel the temperature of the sun.
The same goes for the four seasons.
Assassin is a very dangerous and easy profession, depending on how you think about it.
Feng Moluan felt that his job was easy.
Time, place, who deserves death.
He doesn't have to worry about it.
Just like today.
Everything has been arranged long ago.
Feng Mo answered the phone randomly, changed his shoes, went out, and rode the black will-o'-the-wisp motorcycle parked in the yard.
As he put on his helmet, he recalled in his mind the mark under the date on the wall calendar that he accidentally glanced at when he walked through the morning fog to take away the little girl named "Nova" from the shelter this morning.
Someone has a birthday today.
It's a little girl named Elsa.
People in shelters are usually in a tight situation. In previous years, they would eat red beans, rice and rice cakes for their birthdays. Today I showed up with a very tempting looking cream and fruit cake. I think the children will be very excited.
Feng Moluan thought in his heart,
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.
Suddenly, he remembered the task he had just been given on the phone.
Solving all the troubles naturally means that even those children are not spared.
He couldn't help but frown.
Furui Mubo's heart rarely felt a little irritable and should not have emotions, perhaps because it was triggered by the experience he had in the shelter.
Feng Moran thought this in his heart.
But there is no problem, he is a professional killer, and he can do it after the children have finished their cake.
He bent down and turned the accelerator. The black ghost-fire motorcycle disappeared into the dusk amid the roar of the engine. But for the first time, he felt that the profession of assassin was not only easy.
It seems a little helpless.
Half an hour later, in a private room of a nightclub in Edogawa District.
Someone had just stabbed a glass bottle in his thigh. Ashida Yoshishi, leader of the Ashida team, who was lying weakly on the sofa with his eyes closed and resting, waiting for his personal doctor to come to his door, suddenly felt a little wet on his face.
He subconsciously raised his hand and wiped it. He was startled and suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that there was a familiar face above his head - it was the subordinate who was guarding the door just now. At this time, his head was held by a shadow and hung in his hand.
On the top of his head, blood dripped all over his face.
Ashida Yoshihi subconsciously wanted to scream, but the next thing he found to his horror was that he had issued this command in his head, but could no longer make any sound in his throat.
Why?
Oh, it turns out that the head and neck are separated.
The moment his consciousness dissipated, Ashida Yoshi felt a little confused in his heart.
Didi didi—!
complete the task,
The call was quickly connected again.
"The nightclub has taken care of it, but someone seems to be targeting us."
"Who? From the Third Investigation Team?"
"No, it seems to be a private detective agency."
"Huh, that's good. If it's a problem, let's get rid of it together."
"OK."
"."
Feng Mo hung up the phone randomly.
After leaving the house, I got on the ghost-fire motorcycle parked in the back alley of the nightclub and arrived at the Edogawa asylum faster than the young people at the detective station. I saw the man with a false and flattering smile on his face.
female person in charge.
In the reception room of the asylum, a woman wanted to make him tea, the best tea.
Feng Mo said nonsense, no need.
The woman was stunned for a moment and said, why.
Feng Mo said randomly, "I'm afraid I'll be embarrassed to do anything after drinking your tea."
After a while, the woman was half frightened, half confused, half unwilling and half angry, and fell into a pool of blood together with the female worker who brought water to make tea.
Feng Mo tidied up his clothes and walked out carrying the cake.
Watching the children running back and forth around the slide in the yard, bursts of laughter from time to time, the children, both old and young,
These are also his "mission goals".
On the lawn, the girls were playing house, and a few boys were playing peek-a-boo.
Suddenly, a blond-haired tomboy-like girl ran towards Feng Moran and curiously tilted her head and glanced at the reception room behind the man.
"Uncle, is auntie inside? Can I hide there?"
"It's not allowed there."
"Okay. Uncle, what do you have in your hand?"
"cake."
“It looks delicious.”
"Want to try it?"
"Ah? Is that okay?"
"sure."
Because this is what is prepared for you.
Feng Moluan said silently in his heart.
With a smile on his face, he quietly stared at the blond girl named Aisha in front of him.
She didn't know him, but he knew her.
I just met this morning.
But his mood was inexplicably depressed. Did the trough of his career come early?
Feng Moluan smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly.
As a killer, he shouldn't have these unnecessary emotions. The biggest advantage of the killer profession is that he doesn't have to "make decisions" by himself.
Feng Moran has a somewhat lazy personality. In the past, he found this very relaxing, but this time he didn't feel so good, so his expression became a little bad.
At this time, there was a faint sound of a small motorcycle engine coming from the alley outside the shelter yard.
Feng Moluan's expression changed.
He glanced at the children running happily in the yard, and there was not much time left for him to complete the task.
According to the above arrangement,
He wants to clear out these "mission targets".
And with his ability, it was very easy to do this before the two motorcycles outside the alley arrived.
But Feng Moluan's heart suddenly moved and he made a decision - to solve the three mission targets outside first.
Obviously, this is a decision that goes against the arrangements above. If something goes wrong, he will bear full responsibility.
But Feng Moluan felt inexplicably relaxed in his heart.
Regardless of whether this "decision" is right or wrong,
This is the first time he has made in his career as a killer, and it is his "own decision".
"Elsa, uncle wants to play a hide-and-seek game with everyone."
"Ah? Does uncle know how to hide and seek?"
"Uncle is very good at playing hide and seek. Can you go and inform everyone? If you win, the cake will be all yours."
"Yeah!"
At some point, the fat boy came over and was staring at the cake, eavesdropping and drooling. After hearing this, he ran towards the slide.
In the blink of an eye, this great good news quickly spread among the children.
The children playing on the lawn stopped their movements one after another and stared at the huge and tempting cream fruit cake in Feng Mo Ran's hand. In just a few seconds, they all rushed to the second floor of the shelter to find their own places.
Hidden.
"10,9,8,7"
Feng Moluan stood in the yard, with his back to the excited children, counting down word by word with a slight smile on his lips.
When the final count reaches "1",
He put on his helmet, pushed open the yard door, and got on his black ghost motorcycle.
Next,
The scene that happened in the alley began to repeat itself.
Finally, when the unstoppable terror [Thunder Ring. Fire Thunder God Slash] swept across, the last thought that flashed through Feng Moran's mind was - haha, it seems that he made a "wrong" decision.
But there was no regret in his heart, but instead some relief and relief.
If you were unfortunate enough to encounter this mysterious and powerful man with four beheadings today, death would have become his final fate.
So if we just follow the decision above and clean up the children in the shelter first,
I'm afraid he will really die with his eyes open.
so and so
As the abandoned son of the Feng Demon Family
This kind of ending
Isn’t it pretty good?
The moment the tail of his thoughts was interrupted, Feng Moluan's vision suddenly rose, and then he hit the ground heavily.
Everything ends here.
In a shelter in Edogawa Ward.
The picture in front of Higashinohara suddenly changed, and his consciousness surged out of the portraits of the characters in the "Guilty Manual" like a tide, and returned to reality again.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the cleanup task]
[Attribute point reward: 2 (can add points freely)]
[Talent Ability Drop Reward: Shadow of Yesterday]
Higashinohara rubbed his eyebrows.
At this time, his attention was not immediately attracted by the mission rewards of the [Guilty Manual] as before. Instead, the man who had just been killed by the killer "Shadow" or should be called "Feng Mo Ran" appeared in his mind again.
The scene just now.
Finally, I stopped at the image of one person, that is, the big shot mentioned by Feng Mo, and the person who arranged for him to come today to solve all the troubles in the shelter.
The new Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Dongsen Valley.
Even after the televised speech made public by the Prime Minister's Office that afternoon, Higashinohara knew that his beliefs were completely different from those of Higashikata, who had used "everything for the people" as a cover to achieve his ideals and goals since he took office.
Part ways.
But what he didn't expect was that this so-called "our Prime Minister" would actually get his hands dirty and embark on such a path full of troubles when the country of Wano was undergoing such great changes that had not happened in hundreds of years.
Dirty and sinful roads.
After watching Fumaran's character profile, the mystery that had shrouded Higashinohara's heart all day was suddenly solved.
Uni's sister Nova,
It was supposed to be agreed to "ship out" today and sell it to Ashida-gumi human trafficker Yoshihiro Ashida.
Everything is ready.
But the killer Feng Moluan, who represents the prime minister of the cabinet, came here and took Nova away halfway - the purpose was to satisfy the old man Zhongtianren of the Jingjiu Family "to provide them with three children over the age of eleven"
” request.
What do those old guys want with human children?
No one knows.
No one seems to care either.
Perhaps from the perspective of adults, whether to sacrifice the children in these shelters or the orphans from other countries for the future of Wano is a decision that can be made quickly without much consideration.
But Higashinohara couldn't help but frown, and his heart became a little cold.
For that "our Prime Minister" Higashikata, who had never been masked and had only been seen a few times on TV and on posters at tram stops, there was even more unspeakable hatred deep in his heart!
Fortunately, the killer "Shadow" Feng Moran disobeyed orders for the first time and made "his own decision" at the last moment.
Only now, after Fumaran was killed by Higashinohara, the mission failed, and the children in the shelter survived.
However, the problem now is that Uni's sister Nova, whom Feng Moluan took away that morning, is still missing.
Feng Moluan just silently took the person away and handed it over to the person who took over. He didn't know anything else.
Maybe he can know,
I just don't want to know more.
This makes the only information currently known about the missing Nova is that she will be with two other 11-year-old children on the night of March 12th.
That is to say, tomorrow night, it will be sent to the Prime Minister's official residence - the Prime Minister's official residence will hold a welcome dinner tomorrow night, and countless celebrities from all walks of life in Wano will attend.
At that time, the Tianren who came to Beijing will also send people to "inspect the goods". If they are satisfied, they will secretly pick up the goods and take them away to complete the transaction between them.
Want to save people,
Tomorrow night seems to be the only chance.
Not to mention the strict security at the official residence of the Prime Minister, there were still people from heaven and earth visiting Beijing that night.
From the portrait of Fuumaran, Higashinohara can probably guess
The three old guys who came to Beijing this time were quite difficult to deal with. When they were young, they were even more terrifying existences than the eighth-level peak [S-level Adjudicator] of the Adjudication Department.
The main purpose of their visit to Wano Country this time is to find the blue [Border Gate] in the Sky Tree that has been promoted to the third level of blue and will be opened seven days after it was closed last time.
Count the time,
That is the afternoon of the day after tomorrow.
And if tomorrow night, the person attending the dinner at the Prime Minister's residence to inspect the goods is one of the three old guys from Shangjing, then it may be difficult for Higashinohara to "seize food from the tiger's mouth" to rescue Nova and the other two children.
More difficult.
I think of the innocent eleven-year-old girl Nova who was still immersed in sleep when she was taken away by the wind demon that morning.
For a moment, Higashinohara's brows could not help but frown.
no!
You still have to improve your strength as much as possible!
Thinking of this, Higashinohara's consciousness returned to the "Guilty Manual" and landed on the reward after just completing the clearing mission.
Although Shadow of Yesterday's innate ability is very strong, it seems to belong to the "summoning system".
For a fast player like Higashinohara, if he had the time to summon, his knife would have already cut into the opponent's face, obviously decomposing it without any consideration.
【Do you confirm the decomposition? 】
【confirm】
Dong Yeyuan had a slight thought.
The next second, the font "Shadow of Yesterday" in the talent ability on the title page of the Guilty Manual fell off and flew away, turning into countless blue particles, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
at the same time,
The [Source Power Points] column at the bottom of the title page panel has changed, and there are 2 more Source Power Points.
This is not bad at all.
It just made Higashino a little nostalgic for the rewards of slaying strange monsters in the lost hell world behind the [Border Gate] at the beginning of the month.
At present, these two points of source power can be converted into 200 points of actual skill proficiency, or invested in [Nine Eyes and Six Paths] to gamble.
It's just that Higashinohara feels that the latter seems to be lacking. With five source points, there may be a chance, but with two source points, it is difficult to open another [Nine Eyes and Six Paths].
In contrast, if it is converted into an actual 200 points of proficiency, it can upgrade all the eighth-level three-sword style sword types from elementary (0/10) to advanced (90/1000). This is undoubtedly a huge benefit to him.
The most solid improvement in strength.
And only after upgrading the skill level of the eighth-level three-sword style sword type, Higashinohara can explore the problem of combining the one-sword style and the three-sword style under the "abnormal state" of the next surge in attributes.
Thinking of this, Higashinohara no longer hesitated and decisively converted the two source points into 200 proficiency points and added them all in one breath to the three-sword style sword type obtained from the "Sword Emperor".
In an instant, countless flashing images flashed through their minds, and waves of sudden enlightenment surged through their hearts, as if the sun were shining through the clouds.
The moment he finished adding points, Higashinohara felt like a three-sword swordsman who had been immersed in the three-sword style for decades.
If three knives appear in your hand,
He can control the sword with his sword on the spot, and use his arms and fingers to pour out all three sword styles!
call-!
Take a deep breath.
After waking up from that magical feeling and impulse, Higashinohara's eyes finally fell on the two attribute points that could be added freely.
Among his current personal attributes, agility has reached 68.9. These two free attributes can increase Higashinohara's agility to over 70 points in one fell swoop.
When the time comes, his evaluation on the attribute value panel may also be improved from [Normal] to [Medium].
The permanent attributes of 70 points are converted into ability levels according to the rules summarized by Higashinohara.
This means that he will also break through the level of "superpower user" and become an "absolute power user" above the seventh level.
In this world-accepted saying,
The "absolute ability users" above the seventh level are a dividing line, the dividing line between humans and "non-humans".
But then
Just when Higashinohara was preparing to add all 2 points of his free attributes to the [Agility] attribute without hesitation, the thoughts in his head suddenly stopped slightly!
Because Higashinohara discovered it unexpectedly.
The "+" sign after his [Agility] attribute turned gray at some point.
Gray means points cannot be added!
Higashinohara couldn't help being slightly startled.
