"Eri, it's time to leave, and the child is still waiting for us." Masamune Tachibana sighed. He was obviously the head of the family, but the girl's childlike nature made him helpless.
"Did you lose something?" Tachibana Masamune asked patiently.
There was no answer from the other side of the opaque curtain wall, and no movement could be seen except for the looming reflection. Tachibana Masamune waited for a minute, and a small white book was handed out. The unfolded page read: "Eri Yi
のDuck."
"Are you talking about your rubber duck? The yellow one?" Tachibana Masamune handed the notebook to the girl's outstretched hand, "I'll ask the bodyguards to help you find it together? Or we can buy a new one on the way back.
of?"
"No need." The girl took the notebook and quickly finished writing it before handing it out, "My brother bought me a bear yesterday."
In fact, the girl guessed who took the rubber duck away, but she didn't know where the person who took the duck was, but she didn't want Tachibana Masamune and Minamoto Chisheng to find that person, so she just said that her duck was lost.
"Yes, Zhisheng always loves you the most. Eriyi, remember to listen to your brother. If one day I am no longer around, only Zhisheng can protect you. It's really not reassuring to hand you over to another man."
." Masamune Tachibana whispered, "Are you done with washing? Once done, get ready to go. Remember to put on your clothes before coming out."
The head of the Uesugi family stood up in the mist of water vapor. She washed away the foam on her head and body under the shower head, revealing her long dark red hair. The girl stood up on tiptoes and picked up the white towel hanging on the hanger, and wiped the water off her hair and body.
Beads were dried meticulously.
There was a suitcase at her feet, filled with all kinds of clothes and toys. After some thought, the head of the Uesugi family took out the red and white miko costume and put it on, and carefully selected a few toys and stuffed them secretly.
In the pocket. The inside of her clothes is sewn full of pockets, making it easy for her to carry some weird toys, small notebooks and pencils for writing.
After taking a deep look at the neatly dressed head of the Uesugi family who walked out from behind the curtain wall, Tachibana Masamune turned his head with a vague expression: "Let's go."
The Sea of Japan is vast and deep at night. The black water is rolling up white tides on the sea surface. A yacht is being beaten up and down near the shore. On the shore, bodyguards in black are lined up in a row.
Masamune Tachibana took the head of the Uesugi family onto the deck of the yacht. The head of the Fuma family led the bodyguards in black and bowed to greet them. The Tachibana family and the Uesugi family are both heads of the three major surnames, and their status is slightly higher than that of the heads of the five minor surnames. They are the most important among the underworld.
Rules, so even if the head of the Uesugi family is a young girl with little experience in the world, the etiquette cannot be broken.
Tachibana Masamune sat down on the futon next to the Fuma family leader. The Uesugi family leader stood beside him, looking at the boundless sea in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
This was the first time the girl had seen the real sea, and she didn't seem to know where to turn her eyes.
"Your brother has been waiting for you there for a long time. This time, the fate of the family is all on you." Tachibana Masamune looked at the girl and sighed slightly, with a solemn tone, "I am ashamed to let you bear such a heavy burden, but between us
Only you have the ability to bear all this. You must cut off Hui Liyi, cut off everything, separate the road to hell from the human world, and bury the gods in her forever.
cemetery."
"It's really hard on you and Zhisheng. You have to shoulder the fate of the entire family, but you have to do this. If you don't succeed, a lot of people will bleed and die. Do you understand?" The old man's vicissitudes of life flashed through his eyes.
A trace of determination.
The head of the Uesugi family nodded slightly, indicating that she understood. She touched the pocket on the inside of her sleeve, and then touched the cherry-red sword hanging on her waist. After confirming that she had brought everything she had prepared,
She took off her clogs and jumped off the deck of the yacht.
She landed on a wooden boat. She was the only one standing alone on the small wooden boat. The bodyguards untied the traction rope, and the small-power engine at the rear of the wooden boat began to rotate slowly. When the boat sailed a distance away from the yacht, the girl looked back and looked in the distance.
He glanced at the yacht and quietly took out something from the inner pocket of his clothes.
"Don't keep thinking about playing games. Your brother will be angry if he sees it. Remember your mission." Tachibana Masamune scolded him from a distance on the deck of the yacht.
The head of the Uesugi family pretended not to hear, tilting his head to one side so as not to look at Tachibana Masamune, but reluctantly stuffed the game console back into his pocket.
"Is it okay, Mr. Masamune, leave the life and death of the family to the head of the Uesugi family?" Fuma Kotaro asked in a low voice.
"Master Fuma, you have to believe in her." Masamune Tachibana said solemnly, "Although Eri is still a child, she is stronger than us. Only she has such an ability. That child will definitely be able to do it.
The road to hell and everything in the Kingdom of God...the old gods can no longer invade the new world."
"I hope so." Fuma Kotaro nodded.
He failed to see that when the word "Old God" was mentioned, Masamune Tachibana, who had his back turned to him, looked at the girl who was gradually going away with the boat. In the depths of his originally gloomy eyes, there was a strange and sickly glimmer.
It couldn't stop popping up from the bottom of my heart and was quickly covered up, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
The head of the Uesugi family on the boat suddenly raised his head and looked at the end of the sea. The line between the sea and the sky was as bright as a burning fire. It was the Xumizuo with full power. The boat took the girl and slowly moved towards the dazzling fire.
, just like a crimson butterfly chasing the light.
…
Eight thousand meters deep in the sea, seven centimeters of blue. When the Dieste and the Caesar team really sank, Lu Mingfei realized what real boredom was.
No matter how dazzling the Xumi constellation flashed, the glimmer of light above their heads was quickly swallowed up by the endless sea water, and was replaced by boundless darkness. The moment they entered the seabed, it seemed that they had been abandoned by the original world, and the noise above their heads and
The last spot of light was blurry, as if even the head had been poured into sea water, and the consciousness was heavy, sinking slowly and endlessly until it was submerged in the darkness of eternal night, getting further and further away from the familiar world.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "The depth has reached one hundred meters, the Trieste is operating stably, and everything is normal." Caesar stared at the instrument panel while calling Sumeru through the radio
Reported by Yuan Zhishenghui.
In just the time before departure, he actually memorized the operation manual of the Trieste. Although he skipped the theoretical part such as research and development principles, the look of Caesar standing in front of the dashboard at this moment was really...
Much like an experienced old diver, it feels very reliable.
"Sure enough, there are some things you won't know unless you experience it yourself. I haven't felt this way after watching so many diving documentaries. Now I've only dived a hundred meters, and it's already so quiet and so dark." Lu Mingfei sighed with emotion.
Even if you just look at it, you can tell how cold the dark water is. The coldness seems to penetrate into the soul through the sight, making people unable to help but say something here to warm themselves.
"Brother, do you still remember the time we dived in the Three Gorges a year ago? It's completely incomparable to the feeling now." Lu Mingfei said.
"Yes, no matter how cold or dark the river is, it cannot compare with the feeling of the sea. Although the creatures in the ocean are much larger than the biological systems on land, for humans, this seems to be the loneliest place. Because we are here
There is no one of the same kind in the vast ocean, and almost everything here is unknown to us." Chu Zihang nodded, "So the rule for deep submersibles is that at least two operators must cooperate during the mission. Not only
It is to prevent operational errors in unexpected situations, and more importantly, if a person stays in such a suffocating environment for a long time, he will become lonely and go crazy."
As he spoke, Chu Zihang turned on the searchlight of the Dilieste. The bright light pierced the thick darkness, finally bringing a touch of warmth to the soul, but once the light reached a distance of ten meters,
Swallowed by deeper darkness, they were probably the only luminous bodies under this sea, descending with a pitifully weak light source in the huge deep sea.
After the surroundings were illuminated by bright light, they realized that they had been shuttled among the fish. The silver fish had been swimming silently and densely around the Dieste. Caesar was not afraid of the dark or the fish.
, but this scene made him think of the overwhelming swarms of sickles and weasels he encountered during his trip to China. Since then, he has been somewhat allergic to such large numbers of gregarious creatures.
He endured the awkwardness surging in his heart, and switched his hands between the knobs on the console to release the compressed air under the Dieste's shell little by little. After doing this, he calmly lit a cigar.
"I remember it was written in the operation manual that open flames are prohibited in the cockpit." Chu Zihang frowned slightly.
"Really? I didn't turn to this page. The Japanese branch doesn't seem to have classified this item as a key point." Caesar shrugged, "Since it's not a key point, then it doesn't matter if we go a little bit outside the rules. The three of us
Is there any one of you who is a well-behaved child?"
Chu Zihang thought about it and had nothing to say, because Caesar was right. He himself never acted according to the rules of the Executive Department. A man who was regarded as a "violent maniac" by violent organizations like the Executive Department was not qualified.
Accusing others of not following the rules.
As they sink deeper and deeper, the surroundings become quieter and quieter. In the deep sea, there is not only light, but also sounds that seem to have been swallowed up by darkness. If they don't speak, the only sound they hear is the rotation of the submersible engine.
There was a sound, and the surrounding fish passed by the observation window silently from time to time. They were pale when illuminated by the searchlight, like ghosts that flickered and disappeared. The atmosphere was eerie and eerie.
Suddenly, Lu Mingfei clung to the wall behind him, because there was an extremely subtle vibration coming from there. Behind him was the position between watertight cabins No. 3 and No. 4. He knew who was hiding there, and the vibration of the bulkhead
It came from that person's tapping, which was a secret code set between them.
"Be gentle, Caesar's speech spirit is the 'Kama Weasel'. Although he has not released the field now, his hearing is much better than that of ordinary people. Large vibrations will cause him to be alert." Lu Mingfei tapped very regularly.
deck.
"Idiot, no matter how soft you are, you can't hear it?" Mai Shutoku's beating was full of emotions. Her slender and soft body was "squeezed" among the various pipes. She struggled to turn on the strong light flashlight and saw the yellow on the metal shell in front of her.
He then took out the Geiger counter and tested it around the cabin, then knocked on the bulkhead again, "You're right, this is not a nuclear fuel cabin at all, this is a nuclear bomb, Dili
The Astor was transformed into a complete nuclear weapon by the Snake Qiba family, and you are the death squads sitting in the nuclear weapon, and they want to use your lives to bury that embryo!"
"Isn't it just right that you are here? I will stabilize Caesar and senior brother in the shortest possible time. I will leave the task of dismantling the nuclear bomb to you. Mai, I can always trust you in your work!" Lu Mingfei knocked.
"Don't do this to me, then I have to climb outside the submersible cabin! Do you know what the eight-thousand-meter deep sea is? I will do all the dirty work by myself!" Mai Shutoku led the leader.
Angrily, "Why do I have to risk my life to be your wet nurse every time? I don't owe you anything!"
"Yes, yes, you don't owe me, I owe you the head office!" Lu Mingfei reassured, "Have you brought the medicine and locking agent? Don't lose them, if you really can't hold on and lose consciousness by then.
, I will be responsible for applying the locking agent on you, and then send you to the potato chips...if nothing happens to us."
"Come on, you crow's mouth! There is no way that I will die in this dark sea. My goal in life is to die on a man's belly. Do you understand!" Mai Shutoku was angrily, and suddenly her momentum weakened again.
"Even if something happens, you have to take my body out. Don't leave me here alone. Girls don't like dark and cold places. Otherwise, I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!"
"What's going on?" Caesar suddenly looked at Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei's heart skipped a beat, thinking that he might have been discovered. Just as he was thinking about how to explain it, Caesar said again.
"You suddenly became less talkative and kept scratching the wall with your hands. You looked very nervous." Caesar frowned slightly, "Don't you have deep sea phobia or claustrophobia?"
"Ah, yes, yes, I have been car sick since I was a child. It made me so suffocated that I almost couldn't breathe." Lu Mingfei patted his heart and let out a long sigh of relief. It turned out that he was not discovered.
Caesar nodded, he put out his cigar very considerately, turned on the ventilation system to maximum power, and walked towards Lu Mingfei.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, boss, what do you want to do?" Lu Mingfei looked at Caesar who was approaching cautiously, "You don't want artificial respiration, do you? It's not that, I don't mean it. When I say boring, I feel that the atmosphere is dull.
It’s not a lack of oxygen, I don’t want to give my first kiss to an Italian man!”
"You think too much." Caesar just patted Lu Mingfei's heart and back gently, "My Pilates teacher gave it to me. It can clear the trachea and chest... By the way, this is your first kiss? So...
Innocent love?"
Caesar's surprised face was half-smiling.
"Hey, hey, hey, you've got the wrong point!" Lu Ming's face darkened instantly.
