Chapter 239: Mio's Request
One night three months later, Samusa drew the first of the twenty-two straight characters in his notebook as usual, and they had survived in another world for one hundred and six days, time flies, and everyone is glad that they have lived so long, and they are more and more determined to go to the exit.
"Kai, we've walked a third of the way, and we're not far from the exit. At night, under the pale blue light, Sakuruma called up the obsidian map, she was fully familiar with how to use it, but she had not succeeded in summoning anything other than black arrows for three months.
"yes, I can't believe we've come this far. Yang Xiaokai looked at the bottom of the map, where was the hotel where they set off, and there was a winding path along the top, which was where they had walked these days.
The forests are endless, sometimes they even think that they are not moving at all, the world is monotonous, there is no colorful beauty, there is no sky, only a small piece of the whole canopy can be seen in a certain terrain.
"Xiaokai, is it your vigil tonight?" Hades took out a palm-sized notepad from his backpack, which recorded the names of the night watchmen every night, and now everyone has taken turns twice, and tonight seems to be the third time that Yang Xiaokai has taken on this task.
"Hmm. Yang Xiaokai nodded in response, Hades immediately took out the watch from his pocket and threw it at his feet, he picked up the watch thrown by Hades from the ground, and carefully looked at the time on it, it is now half past ten at night, and everyone has fallen asleep, which means that the night watchman has started to work. There was only one watch in the line, and it was handed out to the Night's Watch every time they were about to take their place, and it was still alive today.
Just when Yang Xiaokai got up and was about to go to the post, a square thing suddenly fell out of his pocket, and he bent down to see that it was his mobile phone that had already run out of power, and now this guy is not as good as the watch in his hand.
"Kai, be careful. Sakura took advantage of Yang Xiaokai's cuffs before leaving, and whispered.
"Got it, go to bed early, good night. ”
Watching Sakurama close his eyes, Yang Xiaokai walked to the center of the team with confidence, where he could clearly see everyone and the situation around them, and he could rush over immediately when an accident happened, but this was also a very boring area, everyone around him fell asleep, no one could chat, it was really a lonely night.
"Whew-"
The black knife responded to Yang Xiaokai's call and gradually condensed in his hand, and it seemed that it was the only one willing to accompany him in the long night.
"Young man, is this your obsidian armament?" A slightly mature female voice sounded from behind him, Yang Xiaokai was startled by the cold sweat on his back, and immediately put away the obsidian and turned around to look like no one was fine.
Standing behind him was a woman of about twenty-four years old, who usually didn't talk much in the group, and the expression on her face was always cold, as if she was completely emotionless.
"You're wrong. ”
"Don't be nervous, I'm not going to tell anyone about it. She said and stretched out her right hand, as if waiting for Yang Xiaokai to take the initiative to shake it, "My name is Raiden Mio, and it doesn't matter if you remember this name or not." ”
Yang Xiaokai symbolically held the hand of Lei Dengen Mio, which was slender and warm, completely opposite to her appearance.
"Today is my vigil, you can sleep with peace of mind. Yang Xiaokai withdrew his hand and said.
"Can you show me one more time?"
"What?"
Lei Dian Mio stared at Yang Xiaokai's hands with interest and said softly, "Your obsidian." ”
"That's why I said you were wrong. ”
"A liar, the pupils will tremble unconsciously, didn't Chiho tell you?"
"Chihori, do you mean Miss New Wife...... I see, the two of you are friends. Yang Xiaokai knew that he couldn't dodge, so he had to summon the Taidao again according to her request, and only took it out from behind after confirming that no one else was awake.
Thunder and lightning Mio became interested, staring at the knife in Yang Xiaokai's hand and observing left and right, the pitch-black blade shimmered with a strange light in the blue light, and the cold sharpness was simply a suffocating beauty.
"It's amazing. Raiden Mio couldn't help but admire, "Both the length of the blade and the sharpness of the blade are perfect, can you give me this knife?"
"Obsidian is bound to the individual, and will disappear as long as it is away from its owner for a certain time and a certain range. ”
Raiden Mio's mood fell inexplicably, and she sighed, "So, then, can you tell me how to get such obsidian myself?"
"Does Raiden-sama like knives?"
"Well, my father likes to collect these things, and so do I, for us, a perfect knife is a priceless work of art, and it's the first time I've seen such a breakthrough knife since I became a hobby, but it's a pity that it doesn't belong to me. ”
Although Yang Xiaokai sympathized with Raiden Mio's loneliness, he couldn't tell her about the skills of building an obsidian arm.
"You haven't learned swordsmanship, have you?" asked Raiden Mio, staring at Yang Xiaokai's hand.
"Why do you ask?"
"People who practice kendo don't hold swords like that. Thunderbolt Mio pointed to the position of Yang Xiaokai's palm, "When holding the knife, there must be no space in the palm, the ring finger and little finger should hold the handle of the knife tightly, the index finger and thumb are lightly pinched, and the middle finger is slightly relaxed, but it can't be too much, try it according to my method." ”
"Oh. ”
Yang Xiaokai tried to hold the handle of the knife with his right hand in the same way as Raiden Mio said, and asked, "Is that so?"
"It always feels like something is missing. Raiden Mio frowned and said softly, "The handle is not long enough to hold with two hands, but ......"
Suddenly, her eyebrows raised upward, and she had an epiphany: "There is less scabbard, but without a scabbard, there is some space in the left hand, if only there was one more knife." ”
"That...... Miss Raiden just wants to tell me these things?" Yang Xiaokai had sensed that Raiden Mio had some abnormal purpose from the beginning, and she didn't seem to be waiting for this knife to appear, but stumbled upon it while waiting for her.
"I thought you'd be smarter, didn't you detect anything from Chiho Ri?"
"Miss New Wife?"
Raiden Mio licked her fingertips lightly and slowly placed her fingers in the air.
"Yang Xiaokai, do you know? There's no wind here. ”
"So what?" Yang Xiaokai's right hand tightened slightly, and the aura on Thunderbolt Mio's body was completely different from just now!
"Uhhh
A black shadow swept in front of him, and a dagger with a cold light stabbed out from behind him, Yang Xiaokai suddenly felt bad, and immediately hurriedly threw the knife in his hand back, but it was blocked by another dagger, and his wrist was buckled at the same time, and the blade of the knife couldn't move for half a minute!
"So if you kill someone, the smell of blood won't drift anywhere else. ”
"Cut. Yang Xiaokai's left hand slammed into Mio's abdomen with his elbow.
"Bang!"
The feeling of bones colliding startled him, and he didn't hit Raiden Mio's abdomen, but her knee!
"Why do you want to kill me?" Yang Xiaokai knew that he wouldn't be better off maintaining this posture, and neither of them wanted to move, but he didn't plan to wake up the others here.
"If we don't kill you, I'm going to join us. Thunderbolt Mio said in his ear.
"We?"
"It seems that Chiho Ri really didn't tell you anything, and this matter can't be said here. Raiden Mio let go of her hand and looked around, "It won't be a problem to leave the camp for a while, and I'll tell you when I get somewhere else." ”
Yang Xiaokai followed behind Lei Dengen Mio suspiciously, this woman was mysterious, and she seemed to have something that she couldn't see, but judging from her skills just now, she didn't look like an ordinary traveler.
"You didn't run away, did you trust me?" asked Raiden Mio as she walked.
"I just wanted to see what you said 'we' was, there are still a lot of people in this team who haven't investigated, which just saves me time. Although Yang Xiaokai didn't understand the intention of Raiden Mio's sudden move, he also had his own thoughts.
A minute later, the two came to a forest far from the camp.
"Oh, you really brought him here. A slender figure stepped out of the darkness, the voice somewhat familiar, and in the moonlight, a more familiar face slowly revealed.
"Miss New Wife?" Yang Xiaokai was slightly startled, but quickly calmed down, "It turns out that you are the 'we' that Miss Raiden said, so what is the purpose of letting me join you? It can't be to collect knives, right?"
"It's a bit hard to talk about, but we can't put it off any longer. Chiho Li let go of the ponytail at the back of her head, shook her head and evened her hair, "I lied to you that night, I'm sorry, I'm not a trainee police officer, but a member of the Raiden family, Hanashima Taki's organization assassinated the head of the Raiden family last year, and also our master - Raiden Knife Wind." Mio and I pursued them for a long time and decided to tackle them at the location of their next target. ”
"But things changed that night, when we were going to make a move, our bodies involuntarily lost control, and when we woke up, we were already in another world. Because of this, we have postponed the date of the plan, but it seems that Hanashima Tatsu's obsidian has made initial progress recently, and if he is allowed to get the obsidian arm, it will be difficult to compete with him with human weapons, so he must be killed in the near future. ”
After Yang Xiaokai learned the reason why Raiden Mio and Chiho were eager to kill Hanashima Taka, he put on an indifferent attitude and turned around and walked back to the camp.
"Chihori, stop him. ”
"I agreed. ”
"Huh?" Chiho Li's pace couldn't stop, and he almost fell to the ground, Yang Xiaokai's time to promise them was a little abrupt, I thought I couldn't let him help at all, but I didn't expect this guy to agree coldly.
"But killing Hanashima Taki requires careful planning, and Fujiwara and their factors must be taken into account. ”
