The tool man took the envelope for express delivery and left the Eternal Library. Not long after, he felt someone following him.
This is not a "circle", but just that Jing Yang is sensitive enough to Qi movement, and his intuition has become sharper.
In other words, one person's gaze on another person will itself cause interference in the atmosphere between the two people. However, this interference is very small and generally cannot be detected. However, if one of the parties is sensitive enough, if the observation
If a person's energy is far beyond ordinary people or his gaze is too unscrupulous, he will attract attention.
"One, two...four, five."
"So, these are the five people in total?"
The tool man wore a jacket, jeans and sneakers, with a hooded sweatshirt underneath. With the hood on, he was walking on the street, no different from any ordinary young man passing by.
After walking three streets, the five people behind me were always there.
When the tool man pretended to jump up and reached out to pat the billboard on the side of the road, he took the opportunity to glance back. The people following him, the Qi on their bodies, both in size and the shape of the Qi that naturally dispersed above their heads, were not ordinary people.
level.
"If you want to pretend to be ordinary people, why don't you pretend to be a little bit like them?"
"Or are you not pretending, you really only have this strength?"
The toolman held the envelope in his arms and held his jacket pockets with both hands. While thinking about it, he turned into a small street on the side of the road. Looking around, he saw that both sides of the street were full of snack bars and small commodity shops, and there were crowds of people.
It's like a fabric, coming and going, noisy and lively, full of life.
Ten seconds and a half later, five people who seemed to be scattered, but were actually at the same distance, and even took care of each other's blind spots, quickly followed each other into the street.
"Attention, the target may have discovered us." The person walking at the front lowered his voice and said to himself, "Be ready to take coercive measures against it at any time."
"Copy that." The four people behind them walked on both sides of the small commodity store street, keeping an eye on the target a hundred meters ahead of them.
"Oh, be careful!"
A tabby cat suddenly rushed out of a shop on the roadside, and with an "ouch" sound, it just hit a little girl who was passing by. Seeing this, the tool man warned the little girl and pulled the little girl away to protect her. The tabby cat pounced with its claws scratched.
It hit him hard with a "dong" sound.
"Pig or cat, what did you eat?" The tool man held the tabby cat that kept making noises in his arms and threw it away with a smile.
"Ouch!" The big tabby cat screamed in a low voice and jumped into the crowd without looking back.
"Big brother, thank you." The little girl smiled.
"Hey, big brother, uncle, my heart can't bear it." The tool man smiled and pinched the girl's plump cheeks, "Where is your family?"
The little fat girl pointed to the roadside shop where the tabby cat rushed out just now and said, "This is my home."
The tool man snorted, "The big fat and little tabby cat just now is your family's pet?"
"Yes." The little fat girl asked curiously, "Uncle, how do you know that Xiaohua is called Xiaohua? Where did Xiaohua go?" She didn't wait for the tool man to answer, and was worried about another question.
The tool man had no choice but to comfort him: "Don't worry, all animals know their home, and they will come back."
The five people following were scattered on both sides of the roadside dozens of meters behind. Some pretended to hesitate in front of the snack bar, and some were watching at the door of the small commodity store. They noticed that the target was talking and joking with a little girl, and then suddenly turned around.
Go forward quickly.
After only a few steps, the target noticed something and stopped suddenly. The five of them slowed down one after another, and out of the corner of their eye, they spotted him walking into a shop on the roadside... a flower and bird pet shop.
After waiting for a long time, I didn't see the target coming out.
"No, take action immediately." The team leader made a decisive decision, waved his hand, and quickly led the other four people into the flower and bird pet shop.
The five strangers came so menacingly that the shop assistants and customers were startled and looked at these people in confusion.
The five people scanned the store in various directions. Various flowers, rare plants, lizards, newts, snakes, spiders in glass covers, and even chained monkeys, and of course hanging cages.
There are all kinds of birds there, even birds of prey such as owls. It seems to be quite popular, and the cages of several owls are already empty.
"Over there." The team leader found the target on a lounge chair in the corner of the store.
They walked over, but were stopped by the female clerk, who asked, "Excuse me..."
"Get out of the way." The five people casually pushed the female clerk aside, and found that the target on the recliner had not yet opened her eyes.
The leader frowned and took a closer look. Was he really asleep?
Just right.
He quickly touched the target's body inside and out, and frowned even more. No?
He took out a mobile phone and a wallet and threw them behind him for others to put away. He slapped the target awake.
The tool man woke up faintly. When he saw the five people staring at him eagerly and the unfamiliar environment he was in, he was immediately startled. Just as he was about to make a move, he was pressed down by the leader's hand and he lay on the recliner unable to do anything.
move.
This man is so strong! Cold sweat appeared on the forehead of the tool man.
"I ask, you answer." The leader asked, "Where are the things?"
The tool man struggled but wondered: "What? Who are you? Why am I here? - Ah!!!"
He screamed, and it turned out that the leader immediately broke one of his fingers.
"The things you took from the Eternal Library." The team leader said coldly, "Don't pretend to be stupid with us."
The tool man broke out in a cold sweat and his face turned pale, "I really don't know what you are talking about! I have never been to any ancient library, and I have never taken anything! What on earth is going on?" He said
I feel like crying without tears. What did I do to end up in this situation? Thinking about it carefully, I should have been in...
"By the way! I want a hunting license..."
The team leader frowned, something seemed to be wrong. He slashed the tool man's neck with his hand knife, knocking the screaming tool man unconscious, and said, "Go back and interrogate slowly."
Two of the remaining four people picked up the unconscious tool man and walked out of the store.
When such an emergency occurred in the store, many customers left early, but some stayed to watch the excitement.
The team leader scanned around and finally looked at the female clerk. He tried to keep his voice as soft as possible and asked, "Don't be afraid. This man is a low-level folk hunter who has killed many people. We are arresting him."
Can you tell me what happened after he entered the store? I want to tell you every word and every action, including all the details between when he entered and before we came in."
The female shop assistant looked at the eyes of those around her. The team leader asked the remaining two people to chase everyone away, and then went to deal with the dissatisfied shop owner - taking out money with one hand and a gun with the other. The female shop assistant walked to a little sparrow bird where there was no one around.
Under the cage, describe everything that happened after the tool man came in.
In fact, there was nothing much to say. After the customer came in, he said he was too sleepy and tired, asked if he could get a chair to lie down on, and gave the female clerk a small tip.
"That's really all, this is the money he gave me." The female clerk said, taking out two folded 10,000 banknotes.
The team leader asked repeatedly, but in the end there was nothing more to gain, so he had to give up and take the people away.
The bustle ended, and the customers in the store also dispersed, continuing to look at the flowers and birds and choose pets.
The female clerk opened the birdcage above her head, and the little sparrow inside flew out quietly.
Watching the little sparrow circle around the ceiling and fly out of the store, the female clerk suddenly let out a sigh of relief, her eyes suddenly changed, she was a little panicked, but also full of doubts.
There was a voice in her mind: If those people come again, bite the tip of her tongue. If nothing happens, find a needle and pierce the five-pointed star in the palm of her hand after a week, and everything will be fine.
The female clerk was very confused, what happened just now?
Ever since the customer (tool man) came in and shook his hand with a smile, he suddenly seemed to have lost control of his body. There was another self controlling his hands and feet, and he went to help the customer get an owl.
Give it to him. Even if it has been specially trained, the owl is still a bird of prey, but it is extremely docile in that person's hands. It will not move when asked to move, and will go away when asked. Yes, the man waved his hand casually, and the owl left.
The back door of the store flew away.
I wanted to scream and try to get back, but I couldn't move, and I couldn't even open my mouth. Then I even moved a deck chair to let the man lie on it.
The man fell into a deep sleep almost as soon as he lay down.
The other voice that occupied his mind controlled his hands and feet and walked over, using his nails to scratch a small five-pointed star pattern on the chest skin of the man sleeping on the recliner. Not long after, there was a doorway.
Those five people broke in...
At the corner of the street, two people surrounded the leader, who was talking to someone on his cell phone.
"We were a step late and our things were taken away..."
The voice of this guy talking on the phone was very low. The little sparrow controlled by Jing Yang had really bad ears. He stood on the eaves on the side of the other person's head, almost face to face, but he still couldn't hear clearly.
Speaking of cheek to cheek…
The little sparrow was about to move when the leader below suddenly glanced over.
The little sparrow calmly lowered its head and pecked at the heel of its talons, breaking the star.
The little sparrow broke away from the control, returned to its natural state, turned its head, and finally spread its wings. It curiously looked at the big human underneath. Perhaps frightened by the other's temperament, it quickly flew away.
Although it can't figure out the situation, it seems to be in a good mood. Farewell, cage!
…
"This kind of behavior doesn't look like a gang."
In the alley at the end of the street, the tabby cat walked through the crowd with a roll of envelopes in its mouth. Although he was overweight, the natural advantages of cats still allowed Jing Yang to walk quickly and quietly, like a streak of orange.
phantom.
"But to be honest, I don't know much about the gangs in the Hunter World. Maybe they have such high-quality professional thugs?"
"He said they were a step late. It seems that they knew that the letter was posted on the road and followed it. The letter arrived at the Eternal Library and was taken away by me. They arrived a little later, so they said it was a step too late.
..."
"First of all, they must not be the manpower arranged by Blatter himself. Otherwise, it would be impossible to be late. Maybe they should have been robbed by Xin halfway."
"Other gangsters?"
"Or... Cajun people?"
Jing Yang really didn't want to speculate in this direction, but it seemed that no matter how he looked at it, the things he was involved in always got mixed up with these Cajun people.
What a sin!
The big yellow cat jumped up and climbed to the top of the wall. There was already an owl waiting there.
Do it quickly!
Jing Yang pushed himself up. After the big yellow cat jumped up and approached, the owl stretched out its beak as sharp as an iron hook and took the rolled up envelope away.
During the collision at the door of the store, Jing Yang quickly put a star on the big yellow cat with the help of a tool man, took out the envelope from his arms and stuffed it into the big yellow cat's mouth, bit it, and controlled it to run away... He
He wanted to forget about using it up and remove the star mark from the big yellow cat when handing over, but after remembering that he had told the little fat girl that the big yellow cat would find it and go home, he stopped trying to peck the owl's beak.
return.
I really don’t have confidence that the fat cat can find a way back, so I’d better make the journey myself!
Jing Yang controlled the big yellow cat to walk back the way he came from with fat but elegant steps, and at the same time controlled the owl to spread its wings and fly with the rolled-up envelope in its mouth.
His body, along with Xiaodi and Kurapika, were already heading towards the nearest city. It didn't require the poor owl he was controlling to fly across the entire continent. But I guess it would have to be at least one flight.
After dozens of kilometers, let’s see if there will be a hitchhiker’s roof to rest on the road...
…
In a sparsely populated suburb, on the roof of a cheap apartment, Kurapika was lying on it, blowing in the wind and watching the blue sky and white clouds drifting by.
Next to him, there were three jars containing solution and flaming eyes.
No one knew what he was thinking. Not long after, a black dot flew from a distance in the sky. Kurapika stood up, materialized into a dolphin bookshelf, pulled out the sixth volume "Resurrection", and put the three flaming eyes on
The solution tank was stored in the book, and the book and the dolphin were dispersed with a wave of his hand.
The owl fluttered its wings and landed on Kurapika's outstretched arm.
Kurapika took out the rolled envelope from its beak, hoping that the so-called treasure map inside was not damaged.
He jumped from the roof to the balcony, opened the floor-to-ceiling windows and returned to the house.
Arriving at Jing Yang's room, he knocked on the door and quickly pushed it open. There was no need to confirm, Jing Yang must have known what happened. After all, the owl that sent the message was controlled by Jing Yang himself.
"Fuck, this is-well, what is this?"
The house was filled with various packaging boxes, and gift wrapping ribbons that had been violently opened were also thrown everywhere.
Inside a gift box that was being opened in front of Jing Yang was a strange sculpture full of geometric shapes. I don’t know if it was considered a work of art, but seeing as it was inlaid with jewels, Xiao Didi didn’t mind it either.
The eye fish accepted it.
Jing Yang had a great time unpacking the boxes. The gifts given by these people who were associated with the gangs were all kinds of jewelry, paintings, art collections and so on. However, Jing Yang’s art appreciation level is limited, so he would rather give them directly.
Counting gold bricks, banknotes, etc. is not convenient for him.
"You're here just in time, Suzaku-san. Now you are officially appointed as the financial manager of the Xiao organization." Jing Yang crossed his legs and said solemnly, "Whatever the value of these confiscated items this time is, you will be responsible for selling them. After that, we will set up an organization."
Deposit into the account."
Kurapika handed the envelope to Jing Yang.
He didn't express any opinion on his appointment as financial steward, but the way he stared at Jing Yang made the latter a little puzzled.
"What happened?" Jing Yang asked.
"You should know that if you go to the wedding this time, there is a chance that you will run into the Phantom Troupe. Even if you don't run into the Phantom Troupe, a group of mixed gangs gather together, there is still a high probability of bloodshed." Kurapika asked, "And
You clearly know that...the so-called death problem in your heart, but you still want to go to this wedding.
"Jing Yang, do you really want to absorb more death energy to make your body more mature?"
