Chapter 123: Like a mourner
The luxurious suite is pitch black, the cracked walls and ceiling are full of abstract ink paintings, the sofas and chairs are scattered in the corners by the heat, the rows of floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Shinjuku in the living room have disappeared, and the night breeze blows from the white top of Mt. Fuji and blows into the heart of the girl standing at the door.
"My shoes." Mandy let out a wail.
The wooden shoe cabinet near the door has been burned through, and the few pairs of women's shoes inside are no longer colorful, but replaced by smoky black, a pair of pure white and unstained plush high shoes are the worst, and the irrepressible smell of protein burning can be smelled from afar.
"Didn't you always struggle with whether its pure wool was fake before, at least you don't have to worry about it now." Lin Nian patted Mandy's shoulder and tried to comfort her.
"Even if it's fake, it cost me half a month's food to buy it!" Mandy looked away from the shoe cabinet in pain, and after seeing the ruined living room of the suite, the whole person was dizzy for a few seconds and almost fell to his knees.
"My clothes and pants!"
The suitcase was littered with corpses scattered all over the suite, and there was a crater in the center, which was the center of this human tragedy, and Lin Nian and Mandy's suitcases happened to be very close to there, so you can imagine the scene of the girl scattering flowers at the moment of the explosion.
"It's okay, haven't you been complaining that overseas daigou may bring fakes back, and now that you're in Japan, you can buy Evisu and BAPE with peace of mind." Lin Nian supported his own sister who was crying and comforted him, he had never been in love but probably still knew the importance of cosmetics and clothes and shoes for women, when he was a child, he took Lin Xian's lipstick and scribbled on the other party's newly bought shoes, although they were all bargains, but the old sister almost beat his ass into three pieces when he came home.
At the door, Ryoichi Okubo made a phone call, nodding or shaking his head from time to time, and frequently made a 'hi' sound, after the call, he put away his mobile phone and walked into the room and said: "I have verified with my family, according to Kaguya's monitoring of the city, at the moment when we were attacked by the explosion at the Qingfang Group Office, there were four explosions in the entire Shinjuku at the same time, at first some people in the Strategy Department thought it was rare and synchronic, but our intelligence subverted this conjecture, this is a man-made crime, Plus a total of five bombings we encountered were all directed at us. ”
"We were still curious about how exactly they found our mission, but now it looks like the answer has been made public." Lin Nian squatted on the edge of the big pit and stretched out his head to look down on the floor below.
"Stir up multiple incidents in Shinjuku at the same time, and then blast them all together at a fixed point, and even take into account the situation that if we are lazy in the hotel tonight, we will simply blow up the hotel together, and we would rather kill the wrong ones than let them go." Ryoichi wiped the water droplets on his shoulder, fortunately the Park Hyatt had the best fire protection measures, and the smoke had already triggered the smoke alarm in the corridor when the fire spread, and the entire floor began to indiscriminately sprinkle water to contain the fire, until the firefighters arrived and completely extinguished the flames.
"My makeup!" A miserable howl sounded in the room again, Lin Nian and Liangyi glanced at each other, and they looked at each other a little helplessly-a little regret is that if the smoke alarm in their suite was not blown off by the bomb in the first place, Mandy's clothes and bags might have been saved.
"Can this kind of 'work-related injury' be reimbursed by my family?" Lin Nian scratched his cheek.
"If Lin Jun reports it personally, there shouldn't be any problem, it's just a few clothes and cosmetics." Ryoichi turned his head and looked around: "I'm more curious about how the bomb got into this suite than this." ”
"There's no need to dwell on this, hotels like this usually have meticulous room service, right?" Lin Nian remembered that when he was studying in the past, his classmates boasted about how intimate and diligent the room service of their place and the most luxurious Regent Hotel was.
"Also, if our enemies are really fierce, it won't be too easy for them to get a hotel key." Ryoichi threw away the oxidized and blackened sterling silver cutlery in his hand.
"By the way, what about the Tamamo former club and the airport? I remember you said that those two places were also marked on the map. ”
"There was no explosion at the club and the airport, the former is the core of our Inuyama family, even if the fierce ghosts want to sneak in and plant bombs, it is very troublesome, as for the airport, Kaguya has checked, and there are no planes taking off or parking at the airport at the point where the explosion occurred, and the chances of us appearing at the airport are also very small, so the fierce ghosts probably gave up the blasting there." Ryoichi explained.
"Japan isn't going to be quiet tonight, is it?" Lin Nian looked at the city that burned brightly outside the floor, and the Tokyo Sky Tree in the distance shimmered white like a beacon of eternal light.
"This matter was discussed everywhere in the news, and we evacuated the scene of the explosion in a timely manner, and almost everyone who escaped from the fire at that time had black faces, even if someone on the side of the road took pictures, they couldn't tell us apart." Liang Yi threw the lit mobile phone to Lin Nian, Lin Nian took it and took a look, the phone was full of real-time breaking news reports, and after swiping it, he saw the notice issued by the Metropolitan Police Department, which was only 'closely tracked' for the information of the people involved in the explosion.
"What did the head of the Inuyama family say? Something so big has happened, the whole family should have noticed us, right? Lin Nian handed the phone back to Ryoichi.
"This kind of big deal, it has been basically determined that the fierce ghosts have done it, the Executive Directorate has filed a case, this explosion has become the top priority of the Executive Directorate tonight, many law enforcement officers have already set off to the scene of the explosion, Kaguya Ji has also begun to mobilize the street surveillance video of the past whole day, and the matter of harming the members of the family has risen to the most serious level." Ryoichi said.
"So there's nothing going on with us going on?" Lin Nian understood Ryoichi's subtext.
"Yes." Ryoichi said calmly: "If there is such a big thing, the Executive Directorate will definitely intervene, to put it bluntly, we can only be regarded as a peacekeeping team under the Inuyama family, and we are not serious law enforcers, we can call the shots on small matters, but big things are handled by big people." ”
"It's a little uncomfortable, it's us who were bombed, but we're being excluded." Lin Nian kicked the burning glass on the ground.
"If you have any opinions, you can raise them above, I am your mouthpiece." Ryoichi said.
"How do you feel like you're a little happy to see me appeal?" Lin Nian raised his eyes and glanced at Liangyi.
"Oh, I've been unhappy with the Executive Board for a long time, and I think it would be nice if I could use your wind to meddle in their affairs for a while." Ryoichi said.
"You don't like the head of the Yuan family, Yuan Zhisheng? You seem to have said that he was the Director of the Executive Board. Lin Nian was a little surprised: "I thought that people like you were brainless and loyal to the characters above." ”
"The internal affairs of each of the Eight Families of the Snake Qi Family are independent, the head of the Genji family is in charge of the entire Executive Board, and he is the authority in this family, he said that if we can't interfere, we can't interfere, and many things in Shinjuku were originally the internal affairs of our Inuyama family, but the Minamoto family has come in with the Executive Board many times to intervene and rudely suppress things, and over time, of course we have opinions about them" Ryoichi sat down on the wet sofa and clapped his hands.
"Who's talking about that family now?" Lin Nian asked.
"The head of the Tachibana family, the eldest patriarch Tachibana Masamune, he is the leader of our Eight Snake Qi families, and at the same time, the head of the Yuan family is his son." Ryoichi said.
"I kind of understand why you're upset with the Executive Board." Lin Nian shrugged his shoulders and stopped asking.
"Don't talk about that now." Ryoichi tilted his head and changed the topic: "Now that the explosion has happened, if the fierce ghosts are paying attention to the grass and scaring the snakes this time, then they have succeeded, and now the whole city is covered with their own eyeliner, even if there are no less than ten law enforcement personnel in this hotel to monitor and explore at the entrances of each building, we are probably safe." ”
"That's reassuring to listen to." Lin Nian nodded: "What should we do tonight?" Will a room be reopened on a different floor of the hotel? ”
"No, since this hotel has been blasted, it means that this place has already been fully monitored by the enemy, and you will have to change places before thoroughly investigating the entire hotel and the surrounding situation."
"Change hotels or what?" Lin Nian still doesn't care about living in this aspect, after all, no matter how small the room is, he has been crowded, and he once went to the park with his sister to set up a tent when he was extremely sad.
"Your ID and passport are all in your suitcase, right?" Ryoichi glanced at the devastated environment at the moment: "Why don't you go to my house, my house is quite big, and it's quite close to the Tamamo front club, and that area is the base camp of the Inuyama family, so even the fierce ghosts don't dare to step into it." ”
"If you're not bothered, I don't care." Lin Nian clapped his hands and his sleeves were empty, and his sundries were also burned clean, but fortunately, he brought the student ID card issued by the college before going out, because this thing can be used as a black card messenger for Yuntong, and his first scholarship is in it, if this thing is burned, he will have to fight with the fierce ghosts overnight tonight.
"What did your senior sister say?" Liang glanced at the room where the door panel had been burned, and Mandy was counting some of the burnt and deformed bottles and cans, probably thinking about whether the unburned lotion left behind in it could be disused.
"Do you think she's like a pampered person?"
"Yes." Ryoichi withdrew his gaze: "Then let's go, while it's still early, the train hasn't stopped running." ”
