The elevator stops on the twenty-fifth floor.

Step out of the elevator doors that open left and right, and you can see the expected scenery on the waterfront.

"What's the matter, you're back? Looks like I won. ”

The person who said this was the level 5 superpower of the "school", Emperor Yuanne.

At the feet of the unharmed man, a young man who fell to the ground with bloody flesh and blood. Judging from her own direction, it is impossible to judge whether she is alive or dead.

Akine made the joints in his neck rattle.

"This guy is quite desperate. I don't know what kind of ability I used, but every time I was about to knock him down, the injuries on my body would return to the previous state, and I also used my "unwanted matter" to "reverse the current" of my ability. If I hadn't even recovered the 'unelemental matter' in my body, I would probably have been consumed alive. Really, should I say that it is the crystallization of "Kihara". It's pretty scary to let go of some moral codes. ”

Every compliment, but it seems to look down on people.

Hamame didn't say a word. He didn't say anything, just took out the pistol hidden in his sleeve in one go. Takiju took out a small transparent box from his pocket.

"Oh, it's not over yet?"

Suddenly, a voice came.

Around the corner behind Akine, a girl in a gorgeous dress walked out.

(At that time...... Weird Hand Girl!)

For a moment, Hamame didn't know which side to aim.

"I advise you not to do this. ”

Suddenly, Hama's body couldn't even move a finger.

"Although it was necessary to kill you before, now that the 'tweezers' are in hand, there is no need to kill even the people of your lower-level organization. ”

（——？）

It's not for some reason that the body is paralyzed. There are no physical problems. It's just that the "consciousness" that wants to shoot but can't pull the trigger swells incredibly in Hama's heart.

For example, trampling a sleeping kitten.

For example, killing a sick child and taking property.

For example, shooting at the Takiju after the relic.

"I can't see you're so kind. It was indeed right to use power in the first place. ”

The woman in the dress smiled.

"My 'mental rules' are free to adjust the distance between me and people's hearts. What do you think would happen if you kept your distance from the people you knew?"

"Woo......!"

(What is this? Is it an application of the ability to read?)

The hand holding the pistol was shaking.

Unable to shoot. I knew that the woman in the dress was the enemy, but I couldn't shoot.

At this time, Yuangen said with a disappointed face:

"It's boring, it makes us look like we're bad guys. ”

"It's a good story for men and women to fight side by side against strong enemies. It's so real that people are really reluctant to destroy it. ”

"That's right, it's a shame. Anyway, even if we don't do anything, that woman will die on her own. ”

Hearing this, Hama's shoulders shook suddenly.

"That's ...... What? What are you talking about? What does that mean!?"

"Literally, if the woman next to you continues to use her abilities, she will die. ”

Hamame looked at the takiju in confusion. Takiju, on the other hand, cowered and avoided his gaze.

“…… I'm sorry...... But it doesn't matter. It's just that this time it's fine......"

"Are you sure this is meant for your sweat, it's been hard to try to interfere with the AIM diffusion field I've been unleashing since just now. ”

Interrupting the takiju without hesitation, Gakine pointed to the small box that had been opened in her hand.

"Looking at the little box in that guy's hand, if I guessed correctly, it was 'body crystal'. Do you know what that thing is for?"

“…… In order to... Activating ability ......"

Takiju can't activate the ability without "Body Crystal". This is a fact that Hamame was told when he entered the "prop". Although I was a little confused at first, I took it as "common sense" over time.

"Strictly speaking, it deliberately causes rejection and makes the ability out of control. To explain the point, it is the thing used in the "Detonation Experiment for the Analysis of the Law of Runaway Ability". In most cases, there is no benefit, but there will be people who have "good results in a state of loss of control". This woman is that kind of capable. ”

And now, Emperor Yuanne's next words undoubtedly undermined that 'common sense'.

He even seemed bored to explain them one by one.

"It simply can't last long. If you don't use the ability for the rest of your life from today, forget it, and then use the ability two or three times, and this woman will "collapse". ”

Honkai, hearing such unstable words, Hama's expression stiffened. Ignoring him, Gakine continued:

"Then I don't need to take her life at all. Without the ability to search, I have no interest in this guy's life. ”

Hamame stared at them unmoving, but the two members of the "school" ignored him as he pressed the elevator button.

"So, what to do?"

Waiting for the elevator, Gakine asked simply:

"Kill or let go?"

"Even if you leave it alone, it won't be a big problem. The "props" that are almost destroyed, there is no way to stop us. ”

Hearing the woman in the dress say the word almost ruined, Hamamian couldn't help but grit his teeth, but he just couldn't pull the trigger. He was completely bound by the ability to "rule minds".

"It's also said that although there are ways to kill them, if it drags on like this, the contractor will come. It's better to retreat first. ”

"Can't you hold him back with my powers?"

"I advise you, get involved with him - the more intimate, the easier it is to die. ”

As if to confirm the timing, the elevator reached this floor.

"Bastard!" Hamame flicked the hammer of the pistol with his thumb.

The face of the woman in the dress remained unchanged.

"The unit of distance is now twenty. It's the same psychological distance as "Hamamen Shigami on Taki's teapot". But can I shorten the distance?"

“！”

"There is nothing sadder than true feelings being deceived by falsehood. You can share the joy of survival with the dying girl. ”

The two of them walked into the elevator by themselves, and the automatic door closed.

"Hamamen ......"

“……”

Hamame lowered his pistol and slowly sat down on the ground.

(If you use it two or three more times, the pot will "collapse"...... ）

What exactly this "Honkai" means is impossible for a stupid bad person like Hamame to understand. But predictability is not a big deal.

(What to do?)

Hamame stared at Takizuki's face. Even now, her body is under a huge load, and she is in a cold sweat all over her body. Takiju's mouth opened and closed, probably wanting to say something to comfort Hamame, but her appearance really couldn't help comforting people.

（…… ）

It's all caused by your own willfulness.

The shore quietly clenched its molars.

"Bastard ......"

You can't let Takiju go back to "props" after taking care of it. Even if the regular dignitaries of that organization disappear, they can be replaced without care. Even if Takiju is in danger, she should be ruthless in asking her to use her abilities.

With a trembling hand, Hamame took out the women's pistol from her sleeve and pulled out the magazine to confirm the number of bullets. Probably because the handle is shorter, the number of reloads is less. No, even with tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition, this alone will not survive the next crisis. The dark part of the school city is chasing the taki.,And the enemies of the "props.。 Will he be able to beat these people?

"Bastard!"

Even so, it has to be done.

Let the takiju use the ability again, and everything will really be over.

At this time, the young man who had been falling to the ground since just now raised his head slightly. He had just woken up from a coma, and when he saw Hama's anxious appearance, he roughly sensed what was going on.

"So...... What should I do?"

"What?"

"Personally, I recommend leaving me here, after all, I'm not in a state of much use other than being a burden. The injuries on the body also take a lot of time to remove the "unwanted substance" inside, so it is the best option to give priority to sending the takiju to a safe place. ”

"What are you kidding! How could I leave you here! I'm tired of watching my friend's plight again and again!! By the way, the silk flag is down there, just let her come over and help, and with her ability, even ten people can be lifted. ”

Hamamian said, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and began to contact Juanqi.

"Ugh. On that note, I'm sorry I lied to you. ”

"Huh?"

"Actually, down there is another person. ”

The boy said apologetically.

“…… Who is it?"

"Someone who looks exactly like me. ”

Hama's face turned white in an instant.

Click, click, click

Footsteps came from the top of the stairs.

And then.

"Yo, brother, I'm here!"

The red contractor greeted the boy who was covered in blood and fell to the ground.

--------------

“…………………………”

"...... the hama?"

"Ahh

The sound of the takiju brings Hamame back to reality.

"You, you—why"

"Huh?"

That's when Aikawa noticed Hamame.

"What why...... It's not because my brother suddenly called me and asked me to come over and wait below. But after waiting for a long time, all I had to wait for was the sudden explosion and the pillar of fire that burst out of the wall, and the men, women, and children who wanted to run out of the primitive people—so I came up when I was bored. ”

Hamamian looked at the boy fiercely.

“…… I'm sorry. But it's true that the silk flag is okay, I can assure you. ”

"Hahaha, it looks like you have a good relationship. Do you want me to kick it in celebration?" said Aikawa, who lifted his foot. But since the two shook their heads too quickly, they gave up.

And so...... What the hell is going on? What about the second child?

It seems that someone doesn't know anything about what's going on here.

………………

After a series of instructions.

"Humph~~~~~~~~~"

Aikawa let out a long, nasal sound.

"I see, 'body crystal'...... I didn't expect anyone else to use this thing. As for Flanda's betrayal and disappearance...... It's really in line with her character of the wallgrass. But death is probably not far off, if the fourth is really as irritable as you say. ”

"So...... What to do?"

"Split up. ”

Faced with the boy's question, Aikawa answered in seconds.

"I'll take you and Takiju to the hospital, and Hamame will knock out the fourth along the way. ”

"Huh?"

"So let's get started, time is running out. I've installed several TNTs here, and they're going to explode in thirty seconds. ”

"Huh?!"

"Rest assured, everyone who didn't escape is put into the underground parking lot, and as long as we escape, there won't be any casualties. ”

"Wait, wait!"

"Then, it's time for those 'adults' to remind them of the long-forgotten legend of the contractor—"

"Stop!!"

"The buildings I stepped into, without exception - all collapsed——!!"

Boom——!!!!!!!!
