Chapter 24: The First Tardiness
The exchange between X and the association ended with a comprehensive compromise with X.
There's no way to be uncompromising.
As I said before, X wants to live.
A person who wants to live, then when he is faced with a choice between life and death, he will definitely choose to live.
Not to mention......
He still has an agreement with Ayaya Makiri.
Say okay, that person, to help yourself find the joy of life.
Don't let yourself continue to live in such an emptiness.
In fact, X doesn't mind if he wants to continue assassinating in the future, as long as he finds it interesting, whatever it is. It's just that Aya Maki drew a cake for him, in order to study whether the painted cake can satisfy his hunger, X decided to eat it first, after all, practice brings true knowledge, if you don't eat the painted cake yourself, how do you know if it can satisfy your hunger?
This indifferent attitude made him drift a little with the flow.
Rebook the ticket when X arrives in Japan......
It's already three days behind the scheduled date.
Naturally, what awaited him was an empty hotel.
"Miss Makiri?, she checked out yesterday. ”
Listening to the polite tone of the hotel receptionist, X only felt a lot cold in his heart.
She...... Could it be that it was a person who went?!
Damn it!
X frowned.
Magicians are not such simple things......
Aya Maki is very good, but ...... If it is against his grandfather, the head of the Jian Tong family, it is impossible to win.
Even if a bomb is made with a magic circuit, it will only end up with one end at most!
If she dies, who will tell herself, what is interesting and what makes her feel happy?
Damn it!
An anxious mood appeared in X's heart, and he forcibly suppressed the worry in his heart, and he asked the location of the mansion of the Kiriri family.
The family is famous in Fuyuki.
Because at this point in time when science and technology are highly developed, only the Tosaka family and the Makiri family still maintain the style of the ancient mansion, and these two Western-style houses that have been located in Fuyuki for I don't know how many years have been informally recognized as cultural heritage, and everyone regards this place as a viewing spot, and occasionally outsiders come to Fuyuki for tourism, these two mansions have become a landscape that people must visit.
Such a place can be found by casually asking.
However, the unnatural stiff smile on the receptionist's face made X feel a little unnatural.
Could it be ......
He couldn't help but say something, and quickly rushed to the mansion of the Kiri's family.
Really......
Where, the area has long since been scorched.
The police cordoned off the street with yellow and black tape, and the figure of the man in the blue police uniform made X feel even more worried.
Using the stealth techniques taught in the assassin classroom to the extreme, how can these police officers who grew up in a peaceful society compare to the hunters born in the law of the jungle?
Cleverly using the structure of the street to speed at the top of the high-rise building, X easily bypassed the warning net.
Condescendingly, you can see at a glance that there are blackened traces, and there are countless people walking back and forth inside, probably estimating the injury, right?
Looking at this look, it should be the mansion of the Kirito family that was also ......
The magic bomb prepared by Aya Makiri, connecting all the magic circuits of a family, and finally exploding in the form of a magic explosion, the fluctuation of magic power will indeed produce an explosion of this intensity.
Moreover, I also want to know that the enemy inside, the dirty inkstone of the Tong Soil should have been hit in an absolute sense.
But......
Why?
In your own heart, so uneasy?
It's not loss, it's uneasiness.
I always feel that there is an uncomfortable feeling.
He continued to investigate, carefully hiding his figure, hiding his figure by the large scorched wreckage, where he lurked quietly.
"Has the detonation point been confirmed?"
"No, I can only confirm an approximate range. ”
"Damn, do you eat rice! The mansion of the Jian Tong family has obviously told you many times!
"Yes, yes! I'm sorry!"
This is probably the superior's anger at the death of the subordinate to vent his anger.
X thought so.
However, it's no wonder that they can't understand.
The thick smell of magic floating in the air, the concentration of mana, and almost certainly this is the magic bomb used by Aya Makiri.
She...... I really had the mentality of going to die together, and I detonated that thing......
So, what about Aya Makiri?
Did that person really die with him?!
"-Really, the good thing in the misfortune is that Miss Matong didn't have an accident, it's really good, she just returned to China, but she happened to avoid the unfortunate incident at home. The burden on your shoulders is heavier! Hurry up and bring the real culprit to justice! Don't let the living be sad in vain!"
"Yes!"
Still alive?
Just to avoid the misfortunes at home?
X muttered in his heart.
It's impossible.
The explosion was caused by Ayaya Makiri, who is not believed to have anything to do with it......
This is...... What do you mean?
Was it a complete escape?
Either way, X decides to go to her first and ask about the situation.
It's not easy to find someone in the city.
But finding a celebrity in the city, it's easy.
Especially that kind of thing just happened to the family of the house.,Naturally,Aya has received the attention of reporters.,For ordinary people.,This is a sad girl.,Go abroad for a while.,When you come back, you find that your home has been blown up.,Human hearts,Always longing for stories.。 Whether it is a comedy that makes people feel happy and happy, or a tragedy that makes people feel pity and pity, the former gives people a sense of satisfaction of heartfelt blessings, and the latter has a sense of satisfaction that makes people feel pity.
Audience, love the story.
This is also the reason why there will be no reason in the news for who bought how many catties of rice on the street, who ate a box of canned luncheon meat at noon, these things are too bland, there is no story, and readers are not used to it.
Journalists are always keen to anticipate what kind of stories people crave, but they go first. The tragedy of Aya Maki is undoubtedly good material.
Journalists won't let her go.
So......
As long as you find a place like a newspaper, you can follow the reporter's path and find the residence of Aya Makiri.
Of course, it didn't go so smoothly, but ...... Reporter, he's not a warrior, and at the slightest threat, put a knife on his neck, and he trembles and says everything.
The place where Aya Makiri stays is a hotel that is secretly monitored and protected by the police.
Of course, as mentioned earlier, the police in a peaceful society understand that "complete protection" and "true completeness" are completely two different concepts.
X easily infiltrated the so-called complete protection and touched Kiri's room.
She lay on the bed and wrapped a bath towel at random, but in the pure white bath towel, a strange black strange insect could be faintly seen.
Aya Maki is good at insect art.,That's what X knows very well.。
But......
"Yes. Our Tong family, this is the kind of insect control technique that has been passed down from generation to generation!But I'm weaker, and I can only use a few of them, but the best thing in this is the wing blade insect. ”
Suddenly, Aya's voice rang in his head.
Speaking of which, he seems to have only seen Kiriya with a winged blade insect. In other words, it seems that floaters, which are used to gather intelligence, have also been used. I haven't seen her use anything else.
He looked at the strange insects around him, it was a pitch-black, centipede-like arthropod, with sharp spines on each node, and in the bed beside her, there were obviously some insects ready to move.
Smack......
The sound of a wet fall, it was a ** gray bug.
Look...... The styling is a bit obscene. Just looking at it makes people feel unpleasant.
Aya Maki probably didn't use that strange bug.
And...... The most important thing is that the winged blade insect that she is good at is not here.
As mentioned earlier, the winged blade insect is not a powerful insect, it is not high, it is not low, it can not exert excellent combat effectiveness, and it is difficult to use it on special occasions. Therefore, the status of the winged blade insect in the Ma Tong family is not high.
Don't......
X was about to go down and ask her, however, just before that, Aya Maki suddenly raised her head, revealing a wicked smile, and the corners of her mouth were greatly hooked, as if the rift girl mentioned in Japanese urban legends. With that weird smile, she looked straight at the ceiling, as if she could see through the plank, and directly met X's eyes.
"Someone, right here?"
She said this with a strong sense of irony.
At the same time, X suddenly felt the hostility around him. Very fine, extensive, hostile.
Not to mention a dozen bugs lurking around him!
He quickly rolled over, directly crashed through the ceiling, and fell to the ground. With his left hand, he picked up a broken wooden plank and threw it at the doorknob next to it, and with a click, locked the lock of the doorknob.
"Oh, the ambusher, is it the young man who heard about the decline of the Jian Tong family?"
As if she didn't recognize X at all, she smiled tastelessly and looked at the visitor mockingly.
For a moment, the black hair reminded him of some stupid man.
In order to save the daughter of his childhood sweetheart, he threw himself into the mortal Holy Grail War without hesitation, that stupid [son].
"Don't you know me?"
X didn't say much, and calmly asked the most important question.
Aya Maki sneered:
"There are a lot of enemies in the Tong family, how can I remember them all?"
…………
Failed.
Aya Makiri, she failed.
X understood.
Because, in Aya's body, the taste of magic is completely different.
That's not what Aya Maki should feel. Although her appearance is still Aya, the taste of magic on her body has changed.
Just like a wolf in sheep's clothing, this person is just someone else in the appearance of Aya.
"Open the door, Miss Makiri, is there a bad guy?!"
There was a sharp knock at the door. It looks like the sound of X breaking through the wall just now is piercing through.
Aya Maki sneered, and deliberately pretended to scream in an exaggerated voice: "Ah———————— who is it!!"
However, completely unconvinced by her surprised voice, there was a cruel smile on Aya's face. She snapped her fingers, and all the bugs in the room were displayed, all kinds of bugs, all flew out.
"Kill him. ”
Now Aya Maki can't leave here, so she lies down on the bed with her own words, and begins to make the room look like someone has been attacked, this calm and calm preparation, which makes X frown.
She...... Don't take yourself seriously at all!
She...... No, we must flee quickly.
In front of him, the worms with a strange glow had already pounced.
The winged blade insect alone has such terrifying combat power, not to mention the other insects of the Maki family. As a last resort, X took a thousand steps forward, and the magic power of the spiral under his feet was used, and one side flew away, shattering the glass, and escaped.
"Run, chase!"
Aya Maki is now an [innocent victim], of course, he can't run around, he can only let his loyal bugs attack him.
At this moment, the door was kicked open, and the policeman with a firearm broke in.
Under the night sky, the figure of the fleeing assassin disappeared into the moonlight.
