Chapter 18: Vortex

For convenience, Lloyd directly ripped off his blazer, and sure enough, he felt much more relaxed all of a sudden. Tio's fight didn't require a particularly big move, so she didn't change anything. You Chensi is a combat uniform, and Noelle very boldly tore a big hole in the skirt that restricted his movement from the side, which was a bit like the taste of a cheongsam. But the shoes really can't be helped......

Just as Noelle decided to make do, a pair of white boots were handed to Noelle.

It's Yutatsumi's boots. I saw him standing barefoot on the ground, holding his shoes in his hands......

"No, I don't."

Noelle waved his hand and refused. It's not that men and women don't kiss, and it's not a taste, but she simply feels that because of her own reasons, she wants to let You barefoot make her conscience uneasy.

"Don't care. Even if I don't give it to you, I'm ready to take it off. The next battle is not so easy to win with shoes on. ”

You smiled, shook his body, and two flying knives fell out from the hem of his clothes, and he was about to poke his feet, but he saw that his toes flexibly clamped the blade of the flying knives, and then, he did a backflip, and the two flying knives flew out with the momentum, each of which accurately hit the center of the chandelier on the ceiling.

This amazing technique made everyone admire, and how rigorous the training was to be able to exercise their feet to such an extent......

After a little surprise, in the option of enduring uncomfortable high flats and simply giving up dignity, Noelle ...... In the end, he gave in.

The biggest insight that this incident brought to Noelle is that he is really not the material for wearing high heels!

After briefly adjusting the equipment, Lloyd carefully picked up Kia and rushed out after the three of them.

In You Chensi's expectations, after dragging on for so long, let alone Lu Bache, even if it is a small gangster organization like the Sword and Snake Gang, there should be one or two counterattacks, right?

The truth is that they didn't meet a single counterattack.

It's a wonderful unfolding. Could it be that something is holding Rubacher back?

But it's not like that.

With doubts, the four of them trotted all the way to the staircase.

"Ah, good evening."

Such a relaxed greeting, without any nervousness, the man flashed out of the corner.

A delicate suit with blue as the main color, a cynical smile, and symbolic green hair.

Waji Hemisfia.

"Guys, you're really making a big fuss. Nono, there was a stampede over there, it's terrible. ”

Vaji smiled casually and pointed to the bottom of the staircase. I saw more than a dozen people stacked on top of each other. The black suit on his chest still has marks of being kicked. It's not so much a stampede...... It's better to say that the leader was kicked down.

The smart support section understands it at once.

It was not that there was no reinforcement before, but that the reinforcements were intercepted by Waji.

"Why, do you want to help us so much?"

Lloyd asked curiously. Waji's actions are incomprehensible. It doesn't matter if we're good friends, or if we're partners with stakeholders, but no matter how you look at it, Waji is too close to the Support Section.

Why exactly?

"Ah, how to say it, I feel like I'm going to have fun with you all the time~"

Waji smiled brightly.

Seeing that someone suddenly came, little Qiya in Lloyd's arms also learned from him and showed a bright smile.

"Oh, what a sweet kid. Yes...... This hair color doesn't look like Miss Ellie or Miss Theo...... Could it be, this is Lloyd and my child? It's scary, it's okay. Daddy is here. ”

Waji smiled and teased little Kia, and Lloyd frowned and sighed to stop him: "Don't teach her something strange!" ”

The situation was urgent, and after a little joke, Waji immediately entered a state of imminent battle.

"Then, I'll help you a little too~ You're welcome."

――――――――――――――

In the auction on the first floor, the sudden loud alarm made the guests present feel like pins and needles, but because of the face of the nobles, no one was embarrassed to show their horror, everyone pretended to be calm, whispered, President Markney hurriedly explained while wiping the sweat on his forehead that could not be wiped at all: "It's okay, it's just a small fire, and it has been suppressed." It's fine. ”

Speaker Harman was blatantly dissatisfied. He's the one who organizes the auction! No matter what mess goes wrong, it is he Harman who will be disgraced in the end. How could he be satisfied.

Just as Markney had stabilized the situation a little, Speaker Harman whispered in his ear, "I don't care what it is." If it's an enemy, destroy it for me. Give me this auction to preside over it properly. Got it. ”

President Markney nodded yes and rushed out with his round belly in his arms, and sure enough, Garcia and Vincent were already waiting for him at the door.

"President, please instruct."

Garcia bowed her head and humbly asked Markney for instructions. However, the current President Markney was on fire, and replied angrily: "Tell a fart, you can do it yourself, and immediately annihilate the invaders for me, annihilate and annihilate!" Understand, annihilation! I don't want anything other than a corpse. ”

Although he was angry, Markney had not yet lost his composure. He has confidence in business warfare, but in real combat, he is a layman among laymen. Rather than make bad instructions yourself, it is better to let Garcia carry it out herself.

Garcia has been with him for so long, and she understands his character somewhat. Knowing that he was angry now, he ignored his angry rebuke of himself and nodded in affirmative.

With that, Markney went back to preside over the auction. Vincent snorted coldly, expressing his disdain for Markney, and then asked, "What should I do?" ”

"What should I do......

Garcia closed her eyes. While it sounds like a mockery of Vincent literally, it's not. There was a cruel smile on his lips.

As the leader of the mafia, there are very few times when he actually charges into battle. A powerful trump card is always hidden as a killer weapon. How can he not be excited about the rare opportunity today to be able to arrange tactics and hunt for prey like a hunter?

Seriously, he's probably been expecting someone to attack this place.

"Vincent."

"Yes."

"Divide the number of people in half, I will search the interior, you block the enemy's path, and when you find the target, you will contact me."

"Yes."

Capable and concise answer, Vincent at this time has completely lost that lazy temperament, if he was a sleepy sloth before, then now, he is a foraging lion.

Rubacher has invested a lot of manpower here, and even if it is divided into two halves, it is not something that ordinary people can deal with.

Garcia gave an instruction, and went upstairs with the troops that had been assembled a long time ago. As soon as the alarm sounded before, Garcia lined up more than a dozen people to see the situation, but no one reported to him. He concluded that this incident was definitely not done by a mediocre hand, so he would not move to avoid unnecessary losses.

Vincent also thought of this, so instead of foolishly guarding the main entrance, he left behind the people necessary to protect the interior of the auction venue, and surrounded the building with the other half of the people, and he himself stood at the main entrance.

As long as he wants to escape, it is inevitable that he will have to meet Vincent.

If he didn't want to run away, then he would be caught by Garcia inside.

If he wants to make a move on the guests, then Vincent is also confident that he can rush straight through the front door to stop him.

Unless he is an immortal from somewhere, otherwise, it is impossible to escape.

Vincent sneered and silently lit a cigarette for himself. He rarely smoked during the fight, but this time it was different, without smoking, he could hardly suppress the mania in his blood. Or rather, excitement.

Come on......

Vincent urged in his heart.

Defeat me, or be slaughtered by me.

――――――――

Rubacher's alarm was so loud that the shrill roar could be heard very clearly outside Speaker Harman's residence.

In the hotel, Ellie and Randy, who were temporarily recuperating in Waji's room, suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

That kind of alert, combined with the intelligence that Lloyd had infiltrated before, made the two quickly conclude that they had been discovered.

Ellie quickly turns on the safety of the guide gun and rushes outside, but Randy doesn't move.

"Randy?"

They had already reached the door, and Ellie suddenly realized that her companion had not followed.

"Now, Miss, you go first, my ...... By the way, I'm not feeling well and have a stomach problem. En. ”

Randy was talking nonsense, and Ellie had a helpless look of "what a strange excuse", and just wanted to accuse Randy of treachery, her eyes wandered, and finally focused on the huge box that Randy had brought over......

"I see...... Randy, stay at the hotel. Don't come out. ”

When Ellie understood what he meant, she resolutely ran to Speaker Harman's residence, hoping to help Lloyd and them escape as much as possible.

Randy smiled at the empty room, unable to tell if he was crying or laughing.

"Man, this is our first game in Crossbell. Don't embarrass me. ”

Randy opened the box, and the red soft silk was a hideous black with a metallic sheen. The huge rifle lay quietly inside, and on the other side of the box several red clothes were crammed into it in an extremely compressed manner, crumpled. Randy unfolded them roughly, putting them on his body.

It looks like a field team's uniform, but instead of camouflage, the color is not green, but a conspicuous red. Bulletproof leather is heavily stitched together to make the dress look patched. On the back and shoulders, the shape of a scorpion is drawn. Pull on your gas mask, put on your bulletproof helmet, and tear off your goggles. Well, now no one can recognize him as Randy.

Satisfied, he spun around in front of the dressing mirror. Well, perfect.

The man who is here now is a fierce hunter who belongs to one of the most notorious hunting regiments in the continent. Tonight, the name of the Red Grim Reaper will reappear here.

"Come on...... Take that fear to heart. Ladies of Rubacher. ”

Not knowing who he was talking to, the red hunter stepped on the window and jumped down with an arrow. The figure is hidden in the endless night.

――――――

"Oh, oh, that's an interesting reaction. It's actually a fire alarm. ”

At the end of the auction, Lancet leaned into Carrumen's ear and laughed.

"Hehe, it's also difficult for him to find such a reasonable explanation temporarily."

Carrumon was kind enough to speak for President Markney.

However, his words did not get a response from Lancet at all. His eyes were fixed on one item after another on the table.

Dio and Arras are both the type of people who don't talk much, only Elka frowned and asked in a low voice, "Lloyd, are they all right?" ”

Dio smiled and said, "No." Although there are many disasters, there will be no accidents. You Jun also followed him. You get the idea, Elka, he's not going to let Lloyd have an accident. ”

"But...... But ......"

Elka was speechless, and finally gave up the explanation and swallowed his words back.

It was originally a cute girl I saw pity, but now she shows a look of grievance, which really makes people want to comfort her and enlighten her to smile again.

"Elka, you understand. We shouldn't interfere too much in their affairs. If parents are overprotective, they will only make their children lose their ability to survive. We're not their parents, though. ”

Dio was still smiling, seeing that Elka was really wronged, he couldn't help but start to feel distressed.

At this moment, Lancet suddenly came over and hooked Dior's head with one hand.

"Want to pee, right?"

"What the hell?"

"Stomach trouble, huh?"

"Nope."

"Bored and want to exercise?"

"Not either."

"Hey, you're smart, how can you leave without finding an excuse?!"

Ranster was furious, but his rather shrill voice caused the displeasure of the people around him, and immediately two men in black came over and cleared Ranster out.

"I will definitely be back! I've worked for Kezhou! I have made meritorious contributions to the state of Croatia! You can't do that to me! ”

As he shouted, he was carried and thrown out by two strong men.

Dio watched him being thrown out, and suddenly felt that if he only let this thing outside, it would definitely make the situation out of control! Immediately leaned into Karumen's ear.

"I'll go see what Ranster is doing, or he'll be left alone ......"

"Well, go ahead. There's Arras here. By the way, you can't take Elka with you. ”

Karumon said, smirking eerily, and added with a wicked smile, "If she's gone, we'll be in trouble when this house is blown up." ”

"Yes, I see."

――――――――――

Outside the Speaker Harman's residence, under the dark night sky, six people huddled into a room, looking out at the residence.

Man A: "That's a great situation. Even Rubacher dared to provoke. ”

Woman A: "Who's to say it's not." Who does this character look like? ”

Man A: "At least it doesn't look like me." ”

Woman B: "Now, is it really okay if we don't go?" Anyway, what the hell are we here for? ”

Woman A: "A good woman shouldn't interfere with a man's decision." ”

Woman C: "No, no, I don't think that applies to this sentence at all......"

Man A: "However, if you are always sheltered by your parents, your child will not be able to grow up." ”

Man B: "yes. Erebonia also said that the Lions would abandon their children without hesitation. ”

Man C: "It's a saying that I haven't heard much lately. ”

Man B: "Isn't that because you never went back to Erebonia?" As the so-called three years have changed, you will definitely not recognize it now. ”

Man C: "Hehe, yes. Erebonia is now a foreign land to me. ”

Man B: "How's it going?" Do you want to go back to Erebonia with me? But you have to pay for it yourself, you know, it's not easy to mix up with the empire over there......"

Man C: "Haha, if you pay for yourself, let me refuse." ”

After a moment of silence.

Man A: "Just now...... See? ”

Man B: "Wow, the eaves are on the wall." It feels super cool. ”

Woman A: "Ah, men really like this kind of thing." ”

Man B: "It's a man's romance!" ”

Woman A: "Then guns are a woman's romance." ”

Woman C: "And sneakers!" ”

Woman B: "Actually, cuteness is enough. It doesn't matter if it's romantic or anything. ”

Man B: "Apologize to women all over the world!" ”

Man C: "......"

Woman C: "? What's wrong? ”

Man C: "Don't you know, do you feel familiar?" That action ......"

Woman C: "? No...... What's wrong? ”

Man C: "I'll take a look." If you need support here, contact me again. ”

Woman C: "Huh? Is it an acquaintance? ”

Man C: (smiling) "Ah...... It's familiar...... I hope not to see him if possible. ”

Woman C: "Who?" ”

Man C: "Levi ......"
