The Kyoto metropolitan area has one capital and six counties, covering an area no less than a small country, and the foundations of nine thousand-year-old families are hidden in those little-known but highly valuable lands.
Higashinohara didn't know where the headquarters of Tianhu Bart's family was, nor where the pirate group Dorothy Alita was taken to after returning to White Swan Port last night.
So Higashinohara's goal is very clear.
That is the core foundation of the Tianhu Bart family, and it is also the towering landmark building in the central area of Beijing - the World Bank Building.
That is one of the basic industries of the Tianhu Bart family. It must be easy to find important people in the Tianhu Bart family. If you have better luck, you will meet the old man who ordered the death of Dorothy Alita's father.
Or it may be unknown.
But the Bart family of Tianhu must be one of the Nine Families.
Why, after learning that Dorothy Alita had been betrayed and arrested by pirates, the powerful people in the Kyoto metropolitan area privately did not think that Higashinohara, who was an accomplice, would do anything extraordinary.
Because they know that the foundation and power accumulated by a thousand-year-old family cannot be challenged by a human being at all, even if this human being rises as fast as a comet.
But the comet will eventually fade away.
However, a thousand-year-old family like the Jiu Family is like a star, even if it is obscured by floating clouds, it still hangs there quietly.
Whether you like it or not, you are looking down at all living beings from a high position.
Any outrageous behavior,
It's like hitting an egg against a stone.
However, Higashinohara came anyway.
Fully prepared?
It seems that there is nothing like that in Higashinohara.
In fact,
Higashinohara was not fully prepared for every action he took, but the difference this time was that he took the initiative.
Although there is no complete preparation,
But it doesn't mean that he has no preparations.
Higashinohara's flight took off at 8 a.m. and landed at Kamikyoto Tiansheng International Airport an hour later. After leaving the airport, he took the cheapest airport bus to leave.
Next, he had to change to several buses to reach his destination today - the World Bank Building headquarters.
Along the way, no one would pay attention to this handsome young man who, apart from his outstanding appearance, exuded an ordinary and ordinary aura.
Even if someone really noticed him.
But as long as we investigate his transportation route, it will be absolutely difficult to believe that he is an outlaw who is going to do something big and dangerous in the world.
The route that was changed to buses in order to save travel expenses looked like a backpacker who just wanted to leave but was short of money. There are very few killers in this world who want to switch to buses.
Are you too poor?
Perhaps Higashinohara, who just came to this world in the first half of last year, was indeed a bit poor as the "working emperor" at that time.
But that definitely doesn't mean that he is poor now.
In fact, after joining the Chasseur organization of "Dawn Scarlet", Higashinohara was crazy about taking orders online during that time, and one task cost 30 million yen.
When he gained the reputation of Shiroyasha, he also made a lot of money from his "employer" Hakutaku Kimura, which was deposited overseas in Citibank.
Especially for the trip to hell organized by Kimura Hakutaku, the salary was calculated on a daily basis. Every natural day outside, the Kimura family would pay money into his bank account on time and on time.
This deposit in Flagship Bank is about more than 100 million converted into Tacoins, and converted into Tianyuan, it is only about 10 million, which is less than 1% of the Tianhu Bart family's random donation to the world government.
Higashinohara doesn't have many squandering habits in his daily life. Even this exchange student was reimbursed at public expense, but this does not mean that he is a miser.
In fact, Higashinohara had already spent all this huge sum of money for him last night.
Forty minutes later,
Kamikyo Metropolitan Area City Center.
Thinking about these in my mind, outside the car window, the bustling Kyoto city scene flew from both sides to the rear.
Higashinohara was in the car where he was changing to the last bus, holding on to the handrail hanging from the roof, and looked down at the traffic route cached on his phone. He would reach his destination in two stops.
He casually turned off the screen and then turned it back on. He looked at the time on the screen saver of his phone, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
9:57
It's almost time.
When you arrive, everything should be just fine?
"Pooh!"
Someone spit out the car window.
At a traffic light intersection two streets away from the World Bank Building, several commercial vehicles were waiting for the traffic light. These vehicles were of different models and colors and did not look like a group of people.
However in fact,
The destination of these vicious-looking men in these commercial vehicles was the World Bank.
on one of the cars.
"Hey, are you nervous?"
Suddenly, a tough-looking man with bulging muscles wearing a camouflage vest, wearing sunglasses and chewing betel nut, glanced at a young man in the back seat whose calf was shaking slightly unconsciously and asked.
"Uh, I didn't. Ahem, cough, cough." The young man swallowed his saliva subconsciously and was about to deny it, but unexpectedly, he almost choked on his own saliva.
After finally calming down, he said with a flushed face, "Okay. I'm a little nervous. Boss Shura, why should we accept this kind of order?"
"This kind of list?"
The man known as "Shura" raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at him with a half-smile.
"When our [Dawn Scarlet] hunters take orders, do we still need to divide them into different categories? In that case, I advise you to join that antique [Red Constellation]."
As soon as these words came out,
The excitement in the car suddenly disappeared.
yes!
Why did the Scarlet Hunter organization of Daybreak become the leading hunter organization that can stand shoulder to shoulder with the largest and oldest [Red Dawn] in the world in just twenty years?
It’s because of this crazy ferocity!
No fear!
No worries!
No restrictions whatsoever!
As long as you complete the tasks, you can get a lot of rewards and then upgrade your star rating, so you can receive tasks with higher rewards.
To some extent,
The mysterious founder who single-handedly created the [Dawn Scarlet] Jaeger organization twenty years ago was simply a genius who had an insight into human nature.
He knows what these ability users who join the hunter profession for various reasons need,
And don't care about anything.
What they need is money,
What is needed is recognition for star improvement.
What they don’t care about the most is,
It is my own rootless duckweed-like life.
If [Red Constellation], which follows the ancient mercenary system, cultivates a group of hounds, then [Dawn Scarlet] attracts and cultivates a group of hungry wolves who are not selective about food.
There is no thought of justice or evil in their minds.
No matter what the identity of the other party is.
As long as it's profitable.
He will pounce hard and take a bite.
Perhaps the mysterious founder who created the [Dawn Scarlet] Hunter Corps twenty years ago has been trying to cultivate such a group of hunters full of wolfish nature since formulating the organizational creed.
Higashinohara discovered this very keenly after joining [Dawn Scarlet] and performing several missions.
In order to confirm his conjecture, he logged into the [Dawn Scarlet] darknet last night and posted his first mission as an employer for the first time.
——Attack on the World Bank headquarters building.
Originally he thought no one would take the order.
After five minutes of thinking,
His post was moved to the section for high-level star hunters by an unidentified administrator, and then a group of hunters named Shura took over his mission.
Higashinohara didn't know who the administrator was and why he did him such a small favor.
This also helped him a lot to some extent, and also paved the way for his action.
Kamikyo Metropolitan Area City Center.
The green light comes on on the street.
The traffic slowly began to resume movement.
In the black business car, the young man sitting in the back seat stopped shaking his legs and said with some difficulty, "But that. That is the property of the Nine Families."
When talking about the industry of "Nine Masters",
Even though this young man is already a newly promoted seven-star hunter of the [Dawn Scarlet] hunter organization, there is still a slight tremor in his tone.
"Yes.
To be precise,
It’s Tianhu Bart’s family.”
In the passenger seat, the man known as 'Shura' spoke softly with a somewhat wistful reminiscing tone.
At this moment, for no apparent reason, my mind replayed the scene where my family was ruined more than ten years ago due to the financial scam controlled by Tianhu Bart's family - my father jumped off a building, and my mother committed suicide after being insulted by a debt collector.
He suddenly grinned and said,
"So what?"
Shura paused and continued, "Yes, the people here are all elites from various countries in our Jaeger organization, but they are still too fragile in front of such a thousand-year-old family."
A smile appeared on the man's face, "The mission we received is just to attack the World Bank Building. What happened to the Bart family? You don't think that for this little money, you want us to kill the Nine Family.
People, right?"
Hearing Shura's words,
Everyone who was in a hurry from various countries last night was stunned for a moment, and then some reaction came to their senses.
yes!
The World Bank Tower has a total of 99 floors.
The 10 floors below are just ordinary bank offices, and all Beijing residents and dignitaries among humans can come and go freely to handle business.
It can be said to be a "public area".
Further up is a dividing line.
There are floors that only the children of the Tianhu Bart family can freely enter and exit, including the business suite floor for receiving VIPs and family insiders, the medical floor, the air spa health center, and the family meeting floor, etc.
The higher the floor goes, the people who can pass through are the direct descendants closer to the core of Tianhu's Bart family.
——Not only are these people very powerful, they also have many personal security personnel around them.
If the Jaeger organization wants to attack these people, it is probably wishful thinking. If they are not strong enough, they may be killed before they even get close to them.
but
The high-star mission that Shura and the others received this time was just a vague "attack on the World Bank Building". The employer didn't mention a word about how to attack the World Bank Building or the extent of the attack.
Doesn't seem to care about this at all.
Then there is a lot of room for development.
The hunters of Scarlet Dawn rarely cheat in completing their missions, but if the target is a behemoth like the Nine Families, no one will be stupid enough to risk their lives.
They only attacked the lower floors that ordinary people can enter. Does this count as "attacking the World Bank Building"?
Of course it counts.
After thinking about this,
Not only the young man who had been shaking his legs just now, but also the other jaegers in the car also reacted, and for a while they couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Immediately they looked at each other awkwardly, eh. It turns out that everyone who was sullen and silent was quite nervous.
However, in the passenger seat, while the man codenamed "Shura" was instructing everyone, he slowly lowered his eyelids and smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly.
After becoming a hunter for so many years, he has been walking on the line of life and death, and he has never thought of taking revenge on such a giant as the Nine Celestial Family.
Unexpectedly, this first impulse occurred in my heart because of an inexplicable task.
The man said to himself silently:
father mother,
The coward who could only hide outside the window sill and tremble, after decades of evasion, can finally collect some interest from Tianhu Bart's family for you.
Bank Building, first floor.
In the hall, the bright marble floor reflects the warm white glazed light on the magnificent ceiling.
Every extremely luxurious facility proves that every customer who steps here proves that putting money into the World Bank is definitely the wisest choice in this life.
At the entrance of the hall, the security guard in a black suit yawned boredly.
to be honest,
As a sixth-level peak superpower with unlimited potential, he would be able to gain a good status in any country. It would be too embarrassing to stand at the door as a guard watching the door.
But when the "prerequisite" is to work for Tianhu Bart's World Bank in the urban area of Kyoto where there are many powerful people, and also get a pretty hefty salary.
Make money.
There is nothing to be ashamed of.
The security guard looked up at the shining sun outside the glass door, thinking that it was another boring day.
In a place like the Shangjing metropolitan area, he has been promoted from the early stage of the sixth level to the peak of the sixth level in the three years since he joined the company.
Every day at the World Bank is peaceful, and there is no way anyone would want to seek death in a place like this.
When such thoughts came to mind casually, the security guard who finished yawning inadvertently glanced at the other side of the road outside the main entrance of the bank!
Suddenly I couldn't look away anymore.
His eyes widened and he gradually opened his mouth wide, until he could fit an egg into it.
The person who jumped into my sight was no one.
But several cars!
one two three four
A row of four business vehicles seemed to be controlled by some mysterious force. They suddenly broke away from the endless flow of vehicles in front of the World Bank Building and shot towards the World Bank Building like four arrows.
It's too late, it's too soon!
The security guard at the door suddenly trembled all over. After reacting, he immediately pressed the alarm button on the collar of his clothes!
All of a sudden!
As if someone had torn out his throat, the shrill and unusual siren instantly resounded through the entire first floor of the World Building.
Hearing this shrill siren,
The ladies behind the glass window of the bank counter looked in the direction of the door in surprise - but currently they could not see anything from their angle.
The World Bank is the World Bank.
There is only one World Bank in the world.
The superior and comfortable working environment here over the years has given them sufficient qualifications to select customers who handle business, and they never thought that something would go wrong here.
But after three seconds
The pupils of the cabinet girls in the lobby on the first floor suddenly shrank, with frightening expressions on their faces as if they had seen a ghost!
How can this be?!
Boom—!
An unparalleled crashing sound came from outside the glass door of the World Bank Building.
If someone could freeze time at this time or speed up time, they would probably be horrified to find that the front of an aluminum alloy car roaring at a high speed outside the glass door hit the glass door and was squeezed and deformed.
However, the glass door on the ground floor of the World Bank Building only had a spiderweb-like crack under the terrifying impact of this power.
Bang bang bang—!
On the other hand, those cars with 50% off prices,
In this unparalleled kinetic energy collision, the front of the car was squeezed and deformed, and the windshield was instantly shattered.
One car suddenly swelled into a ball of fire and exploded, with billowing smoke and countless glass splashing everywhere.
Wait until the small mushroom cloud of smoke dissipates,
Along with them, there were a group of men in black wearing various half-masks on their faces.
The man in the lead strode forward, shoulder-to-shoulder-bumping like a mountain, and slammed into the cobweb cracks where the previous cars had hit.
Eight Star Hunter.
He is an eighth-level demigod ability user.
How terrifying is the all-out blow from an eighth-level flesh-body system user?
Even the World Bank Building has always been famous for its outstanding security precautions. Every facility is said to be made of materials that are no less than that of an air-raid shelter.
But the cracked glass wall, which was already cracked, now has cracks rapidly extending in all directions like a cracked frozen lake.
Then in an avalanche of glass and snow, an unusually tough man broke into the World Bank building.
He raised his head and glanced at the surveillance camera above his head that automatically turned around. He pointed his middle finger at the camera, then took out his cell phone and took a photo of the surveillance camera.
Immediately, like a tourist checking in at a tourist attraction and posting on a social media platform, the man held up his phone and took a photo of the ring at almost 360 degrees before putting away his phone.
I saw him grinning at the guard who quickly assessed his abilities and did not dare to act rashly while waiting for support.
"Excuse me, I wanted to rob you."
When the shrill alarm sounded, everyone on every floor received the alert.
It's just that the higher the floors go up, the more playful the people on these floors are about this rare siren sound.
This building has been quiet for too long.
As a result, the daily lives of these direct descendants of the Nine Families are too boring and boring.
Now I finally have some fun.
The sixty-seventh floor of the World Bank,
Spa health center.
A young man with his bare upper body leaning back against the rippling blue waves and mist of the hot spring pool.
He closed his eyes slightly,
Feel the uneven pebbles on the soles of your feet and the gentle and gentle pressure of a few pairs of catkins.
Hearing the dim siren not far away, the man slowly opened his eyes and asked softly to the woman in black who was standing by and answering the phone, "What happened?"
The woman in black hung up the phone and said calmly, "Report to the young master, there was a robbery downstairs."
"robbery?"
The young man was startled for a moment, then his face showed an expression as if he had heard some big joke, he shook his head and said with a smile:
"Who would go crazy and come to rob the World Bank of our Sky Fox Bart's house, or the vampires from the World Government's Taxation Bureau finally decided to take off their masks and come directly to steal the money."
The woman in black did not answer this question.
Obviously, her status is not suitable for taking part in young people's ridicule of the world government.
After shaking his head, the young man seemed to have remembered something. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "By the way, I heard that my father captured the woman Dorothy in White Swan Harbor last night."
Hearing the young man mentioning the other party's father, the woman in black showed a trace of fanatical admiration in her eyes, and then she lowered her head slightly and said in a deep voice, "Yes, the master did go to the West Sea in person last night and captured the third adjudicator.
.”
"Owner?!"
The young man had a strange expression and glanced narrowly at the woman in black standing beside him.
He said with a half-smile,
"Did your father ask you to call him this? I didn't expect him to be so good at it. Tsk, tsk, tsk."
Faced with such teasing, the woman in black had no expression on her face. She just lowered her head and stood there quietly.
Whether she understands it or not.
She could only choose to remain silent.
Because this man is the young master of Tianhu Bart's family, the third generation heir, and the master's only son.
Francis Bart.
At the same time, Francis is also one of the most dandy and bad-tempered third-generation children among the nine families.
In terms of ability, talent and brains, the old man, the head of the Tianhu family, only regarded him as "a middle-aged man".
If his father hadn't been the leader of the contemporary Tiangui Nine Blades Sky Fox Bart family and the default next head of the family, and the Tianhu family has always had few men, I'm afraid his identity as the third generation heir might have been wiped out at any time.
.
Of course, even so, if one day his father really adds another heir to the family, I am afraid that his status as the heir may be abolished at any time.
At this moment, Francis Bart's face suddenly turned gloomy while he was lying in the hot spring pool.
He said through gritted teeth,
"My father often told me that it is a pity that Doroxi is not of pure Tianhu blood. If not, I would have been deprived of my status as the heir and exiled to a manor in the remote countryside of the Six Counties of Shangjing."
The young man's smile became more sinister, and finally he threw his head back and laughed loudly,
He immediately turned his head and said fiercely,
"Go and find out where Dorothy is being held. Then I will see if my cousin, who has become a 'prisoner', can still treat me with the same disdain as she did when she was a child?"
Speaking of which,
The dense blue water of the hot spring in front of the boy burst into bubbles, and a beautiful girl emerged from the water, greedily breathing in the fresh air that had not been seen for a long time.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the young man roughly pushed his head into the hot spring again?
He leaned back comfortably against the wall of the hot spring pool, picked up the freshly sobered red wine beside him, sighed comfortably, and added with a half-smile.
"By the way, before you leave, call up the surveillance system on the first floor. Bank robberies don't happen very often."
The woman in black picked up the remote control nearby and touched the panel a few times.
Soon, the LCD screen opposite the hot spring pool lit up.
Through the mist,
The young man's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.
these people.
Are you really here to rob?
In the picture on the LCD screen, we could see that the originally magnificent hall on the first floor was already covered in devastation.
Several doormen covered their necks, half of their bones exposed, and fell into a pool of blood at the door. The marble floor and walls of the spacious and empty hall seemed to have been hit hard by something again and again, and there were broken and shattered decorations everywhere.
Crafts and crystal fragments and gravel concrete.
The row of large evergreen potted plants at the entrance of the hall were smashed one by one on the glass window of the counter. The splash of soil and gravel made the row of counters a mess.
Several men in black wearing masks from the best-selling superhero comics of the United Targos Republic came to the fire escape leading to the VIP area on the second floor.
What they left behind doesn't look like a robbery.
It seems more like a deliberate sabotage.
Almost at the same time,
On the sidewalk outside the World Bank.
Higashinohara, a young backpacker who was traveling on a budget, finally got off the bus and took several buses, and walked slowly to the entrance of the World Bank Building.
He silently glanced at the messy entrance of the World Bank Building. Several twisted commercial vehicles were burning in flames, and a security guard with his neck broken was thrown on the green belt outside the door.
Everything works as expected.
The Scarlet of Dawn has really cultivated a group of evil wolves, and I don’t know what the creator behind this actually intends.
Didn't think too much about it.
The next second,
Higashinohara disappeared silently and dragged the security guard into the bushes behind the green belt.
