Chapter 23: The Girl Who Wanders in the Shadows
The impact was too strong, and it turned into a suffocating tension. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The dizziness caused by alcohol disappeared in an instant, and Summer Night looked at the room in front of him in a daze.
Left?
The girl who had been obediently following her just left?
Summer Night has always thought that the Immortal Summoning System she has has a certain binding force on Heroic Spirits, so a killer like Jack will also seriously carry out his orders.
Today, however, it seems that this conclusion is about to be overturned.
What did the other party do? Just go out for a while or leave forever?
All sorts of jumbled thoughts filled Summer Night's brain, making him unable to even think normally for a while.
But why did Jack leave? When I was on a mission recently, because Hinata Lihua had white eyes, I didn't take Jack with me in the summer night. But every day when he came home, he could see the girl waiting quietly at home.
So why did the other party suddenly disappear this time? Did you do anything else today? Summer Night struggled to remember the conversation she had with Jack as she left.
(Then you can rest at home, read a book to pass the time, or do something you want to do.) )
Could it be that the other party regarded his phrase 'it's okay to do what you want' as a license to move freely? Summer Night suddenly thought of a possibility.
If you think about it carefully, it is very likely that Jack's obedient appearance in the past doesn't look like she is pretending no matter how you look at it, that is, the other party thinks that she has allowed her to do what she wants, so she happily runs out to play?
However, the other party's extremely conspicuous outfit, walking on the street will undoubtedly attract the attention of others, even if it attracts everyone to watch, if there is a ninja among the people involved, then the identity of Jack's heroic spirit is at risk of being exposed.
Now the key is to find Jack before anyone else, but what would be the thing he wants to do for Jack?
Summer Night doesn't know what she thinks, doesn't know her preferences, doesn't know what she wants.
At this time, Xia Ye finally understood that the relationship between himself and Jack was so fragile, so fragile that as long as the other party left his side, he had no idea what the other party was thinking.
However, the situation is undoubtedly urgent!
The girl who bears the name of the Ripper is a real murderer, because after being summoned, she immediately accepts any orders given by Summer Night, so that Summer Night even forgets her terrifying legend.
Jack the Ripper, a serial murderer who roamed the foggy capital of London a hundred years ago, took advantage of the fog and night to constantly attack women, dissect them to death, and mail the body fragments to the police station.
The most terrifying thing is that even though all the police in London were dispatched, they still did not catch Jack the Ripper, so that a hundred years later, the identity of the killer is still a mystery.
It wasn't because she had countless blood on her hands, or because she had assassinated famous people, but because of the evil and horrific legend that made her name known all over the world, because of her brutal killings for no apparent reason.
What would a homicidal maniac want to do? What if all she wanted to do was kill someone?
That white-haired girl undoubtedly has a strength far beyond that of the middle ninja, and if the environment is suitable for her to play, it is not impossible to kill a top ninja.
And now, this assassin with terrifying strength has taken off his shackles and left Summer Night's side.
For the first time, Summer Night realized that she was so stupid, and for the first time, she felt so flustered.
The sun had long since set, and the entire Konoha had been shrouded in night, which was undoubtedly the best hunting ground for the girl. Her assassination skill, called Breath Shadow, allows her to easily lurk around everyone, including the Miyome Hokage, and if she does launch a sneak attack, how many people in the entire Konoha will be able to escape?
There wasn't even time to close the door, Summer Night turned around and ran desperately downstairs.
Konoha has been peaceful for a long time, and even after nightfall, there are still many people hanging out outside, and the shops on both sides of the street put up large billboards at the entrance, and bright lights shine through the doors, attracting idle customers.
Most of the passers-by were leisurely, taking their wives or children for a leisurely stroll, wondering if they would be so relieved if they knew that there was a murderer wandering around the village.
In the midst of the laughter, there was only one person running around the summer night.
It's a pity that Konoha is too big, although it is called a village, but in fact, even if it is not much better than those small towns in the previous life of the previous summer night, and trying to find Jack on your own is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
Thinking of this, Xia Ye looked down at his left hand, where there was a feather-like pattern made of three red scratches, a stroke spell that had been used during the survival assessment, after a week, had now been restored, and there was no need to save at all.
Summer Night gritted his teeth, turned into an alley on the side of the street, made sure that he would not be seen, and then raised his left hand.
"In the name of the Spell! Come to me! Jack the Ripper! ”
However, the spell on his left hand did not change, and the swipe that should have turned red remained in Summer Night's hand.
Why?
According to common sense, the spell should not be bound by the so-called space, and no matter how far away the spell is, the magic of the spell can definitely be conveyed. Servants do not have the ability to refuse the spell, and for them, the magic of the spell represents absolute command.
The only possibility that the spell would not work is that Jack's current location can isolate the transmission of mana to some extent, making the command of the spell impossible to communicate. However, is there really such a place in Konoha? Even the cage where Konoha holds ninjas can't have the effect of isolating chakra, right?
Xia Ye couldn't help frowning, even the summoning of the spell was sealed, that is, the situation was completely beyond his control, and he had to consider the worst case scenario now.
But now that even the spell is ineffective, what can he do?
At this moment, a trace of chakra was slowly pulled out of Summer Night's body.
That's right!
Even though the other party can't contact him now, the Heroic Spirit's body is made of his chakra, and his body is still pulling out chakras for Jack's use.
With the slightest sense of non-existence in his body, Summer Night ran up, and in the night, he seemed to be able to see the Hokage Building of Konoha at the end of his running direction.
And while the summer night was running around Konoha Village, the white-haired girl was walking in an empty and huge room.
The room was completely shrouded in darkness with no windows or lights, the empty space was so silent that even the sound of breathing became visible, the nasal cavity was constantly smelling of decay peculiar to damp places, and the air that had not seen sunlight all year round brought a burst of coldness to the skin.
It's like a tomb buried deep in the ground......
If the other girls had been alone in such a horrible place, they would have sat on the ground and wept loudly, while she was oblivious to everything, and the petite figure slowly advanced through the huge room, and she followed her familiar breath, which she had tasted in the city that was forever shrouded in fog......
Blood, fear, wailing, and the smell of death.
Her short snow-white hair was so conspicuous in the darkness, but her slender and graceful figure fit perfectly with the strange environment.
Her name is Jack the Ripper......
A murderer hiding in the foggy night......
This is the root of Konoha......
Where darkness and gore meet......
*****
The next plot should be the first big climax, and the author will try to ensure the speed of two to three more changes a day......
Now I feel like I'm so happy that I've been cured of lazy cancer!!
