Chapter 55: The Smiling Face of Ten Years Ago
About an hour before Mr. Fukuyama was attacked, the moment Mr. Xu left his desk, an uninvited guest arrived at the hotel hosting the tour. The black Lexus, quietly parked on the side of the open road. Through the car window, Mariko Nobuta looked out at the hotel's towering glass façade. The Ice Grudge is on one of those levels, and it's going to be mine. She happily looked forward to turning over a page of the heavy parchment book in her hand. "Come out, Kuroki." Next to Lexus, a wordless hooded banshee appeared. "Stealth! You stupid, you're going to be caught on camera. Shinda scolded, and the banshee immediately disappeared. Go ahead, kill everyone who stands in your way, and bring that blue diamond back. With the Illustrated Demons, she could feel the banshee moving away, taking with her group of little demons. There are guards patrolling downstairs and the door is locked. However, these measures are just as much waste in the face of the Banshee of Pain. It wasn't until the sword pierced through the back of the heart that the guards realized that they had been attacked. The door lock is even more unbearable, and it can be easily cut off. Fingertips skimmed over the rows of music menus and selected one of them. In the luxurious surround sound of Lexus, a certain female singer sings lazily: The lonely Edo night flower-filled desert comes and goes, familiar strangers for what, for what...... There was wine in the Xiaoice box. Of all the fruit wines, this white wine from Francie is the most popular with her. Tender green liquor, refreshing and slightly sweet. She poured herself a glass, took a sip, and snuggled up in the fluffy backrest. No killing, no blood, just sit in the car, listen to music, drink some wine, and wait quietly. What easier jewelry loot could be? It's just a treat. Closing his eyes, Nobuta relaxed his tense nerves, and his consciousness slowly sank into darkness...... Walking barefoot under a long, dimly lit porch. There is a wall on one side and a door on the other. Most of the doors were shattered, and the room behind them was empty. Some of the doors were closed, and Nobuta tentatively pushed them open, except for garbage and garbage. Where is this? What exactly am I looking for? The corridor stretches and stretches as if endlessly. No, a normal building can't be that long. She sensed something strange in it, but she couldn't stop her feet. Intuition told her that there was only one way forward, and no way back. A door was open next to her, and she walked softly, glancing casually. Unlike the other empty rooms, this glance was actually sunk in, and the eyes could no longer be taken away. Mariko Nobuta saw herself, herself who had just graduated from high school. Sunshine, sailor suits, shoulder-length black hair shiny like a waterfall, full of energy. Behind him is a lake as brilliant as broken gold. The best classmates are all around. She looked fixedly at the girl who was smiling young. Is that me? Was this how I used to be? The weather was intoxicatingly clear, three or two white clouds floated idly, and the planes that climbed into the sky seemed to melt into the blue sky. However, he didn't care about all this, just lowered his head blankly, looking at the small pink shell in his hand. "What's wrong?" The classmates who squeezed around him, pretending to make a grimace, "Didn't you say that you wanted to record together?" Ah, yes, he seemed to remember something, and cleared his throat with a serious face: "Hmm...... How are you? Ten years later. "Probably too serious, with laughter scattered in the background. The classmates were squeezing their eyebrows, giggling. "Don't laugh!" Being coaxed like this made me even more nervous. The lines that I thought of in advance in my mind were forgotten in an instant. "Huh...... Good morning. The hateful giggle laughed louder. No, I'm still shy, ahhhh Did you sleep well today? Wake up in a good mood? Do you feel fresh in the air, light and wind? The cells of the body have woken up one by one, right? Today is the new you and the new me. Ten years from now, I am so far away that I can't imagine it. Am I still alone? Or, met a nice boy paper? With my poor character, it must give him a headache, right? The girl in front of the camera smiled and gestured V: "All of this is no problem, because I will definitely support you!" Although it is no longer me after ten years, I will always support you. Remember, you are the only one! Come on, myself! Don't lose, myself! "I woke up suddenly, still nestled in a high-end leather seat in Lexus. If the wine is not dry, the song is not dispersed, and what I saw and felt just now seems to be only a moment. Ten years ago, I was like a roll of painting paper that had just been unfolded, white and flawless...... For a moment, she was almost touched by that memory. However, even if it was moved, it only lasted for a moment. It's just a dream, she told herself that living in a dream will only starve to death, and mastering the present is the most real. The corners of her eyes were sour, and she seemed to be crying just now, she rubbed her eyes, and noticed that there was something next to the car. When I looked at it, I was immediately startled - the banshee had come back at some point, and stood beside the car with her head bowed. The haunting ice-blue stone hovered in the palm of its hand, and along with the platinum necklace, it swayed up and down slightly. Fool, is it okay to just float on the side of the road with a sword? Even though it's late at night, if a car passes by, I'll see it! Nobuta hurriedly opened the door and snatched the diamond necklace. The Banshee's page was turned to in the Evil Spirit Illustrated Book, and she snapped it shut, and the Banshee vanished immediately. Sitting back in the driver's seat, she wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. Fortunately, no one seems to see it. The black Lexus whined, turned onto the main road, and flew into the darkness. At this time, Xu Changqing and Xia Cheng just rushed out of the door. Watching the Lexus disappear, the red taillights getting farther and farther away. "Damn! It's just that if you go to bed a little early, you're going to be run away by her! Xia Cheng was so angry that he stomped his feet. Xu Changqing was relatively calm. "Hey, Uesugi, monitor all the cameras on Teine Street at once. Nobuta's car drove by," he said to his phone, "it's that Lexus!" After speaking, he beckoned Xia Cheng again, "Let's go, underground garage!" Romeo's key I have with me. Three minutes later, the red Alfa Romeo roared out of the garage and traced in the direction where the Lexus had disappeared. As usual, Xu Changqing drove. Xia Cheng nestled in the back seat, nervously holding a long dark green plastic box. It's a big killer weapon that is not easy to get your hands on. A Dragonov "Tiger-1" sniper rifle with an extended barrel and a night vision scope. Although it is a civilian type with a reduced range, within 600 meters, the accuracy is the same as that of the military type. On his mobile phone, Uesugi reported Nobuta's news all the way. Of course, it was all pulled from internal police communications. "She's going northeast!" "Turn from National Highway 227 to National Highway 337!" "Out of town and turn southeast! Ishiori River has already passed! ”
It's a strange route, it seems to be all the way to the farm near the Dangbetsu River. That area is very desolate, the land is vast and sparsely populated, what does Xintian want to do? If it is to get rid of the police tracking, isn't it more convenient to be in the city with many people and cars?
