On the evening of March 22, Tokyo, Narita Airport, heavy rain.

The red-eyed airliner parked on the runway flashed red beacon light in the black rainy night, and the snow-white take-off lights cut through the darkness on the runway like a sword. The boarding compartment slowly closes, the boarding car under the passenger plane leaves the runway with its headlights on, and the radio of the control tower gives permission to take off in the heavy rain, so the huge migratory birds set out on their way home in the rainstorm night in early spring.

In the first-class cabin, Lin Nian adjusted the inclination of the seats, the rain in the dark night whipped the portholes, except for the corner illuminated by the high lights, the rest of the airport was dim and could not see anything clearly, and through the thin wall of the machine, it seemed that he could feel the rain of the waterfall being blown by the wind like smoke and fog.

"Home, home, home!"

On the adjacent seat of the passenger plane, Mandy lay on the semi-flat seat on all fours, enjoying the dry and warm hot air blowing from the air conditioner, and then took a sip of the hot orange juice held in both hands and was warm, so comfortable that he twisted his body in the chair, and Lin Nian on the side raised his hand to ring the service bell after adjusting the seat.

After a while, the beautiful female flight attendant came abruptly, holding a piece of PAD and a cup of warm boiled water with a straw and a small paper fan in her hand, after taking the PAD, Lin Nian bowed her head slightly to express her gratitude, and the female flight attendant nodded in response with a professional smile, and then turned around and left the headlamp compartment without saying a word, leaving Lin Nian alone with Mandy.

This flight is a charter flight specially sent by the executive department, except for the first-class Lin Nian and Mandy there are no other passengers, from the flight attendant to the captain are more or less considered to be insiders in the "system", this flight is outside under the guise of private international aviation, every flight flying around the world is actually only for the purpose of picking up and dropping off the secretary party commissioners sent to various countries, Lin Nian and Mandy also naturally enjoy the treatment of this special pick-up and delivery, The executive department specially arranged the latest red-eye flight to Japan, just to transport the two of them back to school safely.

Lying in the seat, Lin Nian pressed the password that was mixed with thirteen digits, uppercase and lowercase English letters, Roman numerals and punctuation marks, answered the unwarranted security question preset by the execution department, and then verified the fingerprint before successfully entering the interface and began to write and draw on it.

"What for? Secretly chatting with a girl I know in Japan on ins? Mandy poked her head out of her neighbor's seat and peeked at Lin Nian's side.

"Yes, yes, in fact, in Genji Heavy Industries, I sneaked out under the pretext of going to the toilet to get a good night's love for Aragaki Yui, and now I'm saying goodnight to her." Lin Nian perfunctorily turned sideways, leaning against the porthole to prevent her from seeing the screen.

"Yui Aragaki? Playing that in '07? It's pretty beautiful, but the heat has come down in recent years, so why don't you just be bold and say that you hooked up with Kitagawa Keiko under your conditions, junior brother. Mandy laughed.

"Keiko Kitagawa is 23 this year, right? She is five or six years older than me, it is not suitable, it is not suitable, and I can't even look down on her sister. Lin Nian simply squatted on the seat with his back against the porthole, leaned the PAD in front of his knees, wrote and drew with his right hand, and drank with a glass of water in his left hand.

"Hey, it's a good culture, why don't you little boys understand it." Mandy grunted and sat back in her seat, probably judging by Lin Nian's serious appearance, she guessed that she was busy with business.

Lin Nian is really doing a serious thing now, after all, no one dares to carry out the PAD special issue of the Ministry of Teasing Sisters, and there is no superfluous software on this PAD for human consumption, the only thing that can be clicked on is a notepad function that can be uploaded and saved in the cloud, Lin Nian's business is to write a task report in a notebook and then upload it to the Executive Department with a signature as a commissioner.

The mission report should record the details of the entire task in great detail, and after the implementation department repeatedly reviews and determines that there are no missing parts, then prints out the written document and saves it in the warehouse of the information department in the ice cellar, and the other electronic file is uploaded to the information database of Norma and locks the access rights that match the task level.

The mission report written by Lin Nian now will probably be locked with 'S'-level access as soon as it is uploaded, after all, this mission itself is a genuine 'S'-level mission. Although they were not allowed to blow up the Pentagon or slaughter a revived sub-breed or third-generation pure-blood dragon or something, after all, the secrecy of spy missions is always two or three grades higher than that of ordinary missions.

For example, this time to Kaguya Ji computer room implanted a backdoor virus, once the mission failure is detected by the Japanese branch, the relationship between the division and the headquarters will deteriorate, and the subsequent bad impact on the overall situation is immeasurable, if Lin Nian is still captured because of this, probably the college headquarters will flatly deny the existence of this mission, and directly leave the responsibility clean and let the commissioner carry all the black pots alone.

Lin Nian didn't delve into these twists and turns of political issues, but he knew the stakes in his heart like a mirror, unlike other 17 or 8-year-old young people, although he was young and vigorous in a few things, but in this kind of major things, he was a rare old man, knowing what to pick out and what to ignore, in other words, he had the consciousness of stepping into the mire on half a leg.

But fortunately, now the 'S' class mission has been successfully completed, and all the negative effects have disappeared, as soon as Kaguya's computer room is blown up, all monitoring information is completely scrapped, and the backdoor virus has been implanted in Kaguya's core cabinet, hidden at the bottom of the information base, and then the actions of the Japanese branch in the network field can be regarded as completely exposed in front of the headquarters.

Lin Nian was very curious about what kind of reward the school board would give him this time, it was impossible for him to fool him with something like GPA_4.0 without a formal class, would he just stuff him with a bank card like the last time?

It seems good to take people's money to do things for others at your own risk?

When Lin Nian pulled the PAD and bit the straw and spit bubbles into the glass, the airliner shook slightly, the heavy rain outside the window slanted on the window, and the white giant bird in the night split the rain curtain and slid forward, announcing the end of this trip to Japan.

Mandy honestly put down the orange juice and didn't want to repeat the same mistakes when she came to Japan, while Lin Nian concentrated on writing the mission report, with an eye mask and a headphone cable on the armrest of the seat on the side, the white headphones faintly resounded Ato Fangshi's, and the gentle female voice seemed to urge people to return to the nest, and sink into the puddle of water that ripples in the rainy night and reflected the city lights.

The huge passenger plane flew into the sky of Tokyo, Lin Nian, who was leaning against the porthole, inadvertently looked down at the city outside the window next to his shoulder, the rain curtain came from the thick dark clouds on the horizon, entangled the lights of the city in a thick fog, and the colorful lights on the Rainbow Bridge, which was getting closer and closer to the passenger plane, were also hazy into colorful blocks of different sizes not far away. It's a pity that the lane was closed due to the heavy rain, and no one could enjoy the particularly beautiful scene in the rainstorm.

- In fact, there are still people, but only this one is standing in the middle of the long-sealed bridge, looking up at the passenger plane whizzing past the bridge and flying into the dark clouds of the sky where the lights of the city are also illuminated.

The man's black-on-saffron kimono loosely exposed his delicate collarbones, and he watched the flashing red airliner fly into the sky, and the torrential rain diverted from his beautiful face without powder, and the hilt of the red-sheathed long knife that smashed diagonally across his waist along his shoulder converged into the wooden shoes that flowed into the end of the foot.

He was the only one standing in the middle of the colorful bridge in the rainstorm, like a young samurai who had strayed into modern society, standing in the rainstorm night of the spring rage, and the rain falling from him was dyed with a lonely smell.

He watched as the airliner flew over the bridge until it disappeared into the dark sky.

The white headlights shone behind the man, stretching his shadow long across the empty bridge deck, where a black Maybach sedan slowly slid beside him.

The waiter got out of the car with a black umbrella and silently opened the door for him, and in the luxurious and warm back seat sat an old man wearing a miserable white mask like a minister, and the warm yellow light in the car illuminated the mask from top to bottom, which made people shudder.

The old man looked sideways at him with a black rod in both hands and did not speak, and the paper cigarette in his mouth flew out and was immediately shattered by the heavy rain.

"The Eight Snake Qi families have been tracking me down for fifteen days, and you didn't come to pick me up until today."

The young man didn't get into the car, but stood next to the Maybach bathed in the torrential rain and watched the place where the airliner had disappeared, the clouds rolling and hiding a flickering white python.

"Where's the word? In the past fifteen days, the Eight Snake Clans have been chasing you, but they have not forgotten to keep a close eye on the strongholds of the Fierce Ghosts along the Tokyo Route, and they have never thought of actually arresting you from the beginning, but want to use you as bait to lure out more tentacles of the Fierce Oni Clan, and then devour our flesh and blood one by one, so that they can grow stronger. ”

The king took off the paper cigarette, extinguished it on the black cane, and put it in the ashtray in the car: "I care about you, young girl. ”

"I thought I was finally your outcast." Ruri Kazama looked down at him sideways, her golden eyes shining brighter than the neon lights hanging on the bridge on a rainy night.

"Everyone in the Fierce Ghosts is a moving chess piece, and the amount of flesh on your body is enough to support the skeleton before you move will not be abandoned so easily, you are of great significance to the Fierce Ghosts, of course, you will not become an outcast so easily, on the contrary, your miss this time is beyond my expectations." Wang Jiang raised his head and looked at Ruri's chest in the rain and wind, the water flowed into the loose kimono, and there was a sunken bruise on the chest in the shadow of the clothes, fifteen days have passed, and with the self-healing ability of the "imperial blood", this wound has not been smoothed out.

"It's rare to be surprised, and it seems that from the moment that boy appeared in Tokyo, the direction of the chessboard was completely out of your control." Ruri Kazama let the rain fall on her, and her eyes fell on the mask of the king through her wet forehead, as if she wanted to see through the bone-white masquerade and lick the innermost stinky soul.

"There will always be accidents, although there are some unsatisfactory, but at least the purpose of this operation is half achieved, there is intelligence information that there is an explosion in the computer room of Kaguyahime, plus you and that group of mercenaries have carried out varying degrees of destruction in the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the fifth floor, the information department on the eighth floor, the communication department on the twenty-eighth floor, the liaison department on the twenty-ninth floor and the strategy department on the thirty floor, I am afraid that the eight families of Snake Qi will not have the energy to bother us again in the near future, and after fanning the rebellion of the restless underworlds, they are already too busy to take care of themselves." Wang Jiang laughed twice, even his laughter was a little more refreshing than the rain hitting the bridge, "There was more than one force that fought against the Eight Snake Families that day, and your brother was blocked and delayed by a strong enemy as proof, and recently the forces of the Fierce Ghost Crowd can begin to enter full development, and the research and development of evolution drugs and the plundering of elite talents can also be carried out a little blatantly." ”

Ruri Kazama looked at Wang Jiang quietly for a while and said, "So that boy is an insignificant existence to you?" You just want to use a reason to attack your own family, but you don't give the other party a reason to start a full-scale war with the Fierce Ghosts after being provoked? ”

"What does it matter to me that the mercenaries attacked Genji Heavy Industries?" The king said, "Your meddling is nothing more than the fierce ghosts who can't hold back and tear off a piece of flesh from the bloody wounds of the snake Qi Eight families and devour it, they can bark at us, but there is absolutely no reason to chase us for revenge." ”

"The bounty is fake, the attack on the family is real, everything is just for the dormant of the fierce ghosts, this rainstorm hit the body of the eight families of Snake Qi, how many spring shoots should emerge in the mountains after the rain." Wang Jiang looked at the dark water outside the bridge and said lightly.

"So that boy doesn't matter, let him leave Japan?"

"It's not so much that he let him go, it's better that he escaped, and even the Eight Snake Qi families can't keep that boy, how can the weak fierce ghosts keep it? Let him flap his wings and return home like a migratory bird in this season change, the cherry blossoms of spring are left for us to enjoy after all, and there is no place for strangers under the trees. ”

"I have a hunch that he will come back in the future." Ruri Kazama whispered, "When the time comes, it must be for the sake of the 'gods'. ”

"Then let him be entertained with great ceremonies, for there are as many pilgrims as cattle and sheep, and it would be a dereliction of duty on us grave keepers not to offer enough lambs for the awakening of 'God.'" The king will smile lightly.

Ruri Kazama looked at Wang Jiang quietly, as if he was guessing how much he was true and how much he was false, just like what he did, as fierce and fierce as a hyena, but as cunning as a red fox like three caves to avoid trouble.

"It's been a long time, the wine that is hot for you is going to be cold, and the rain will be a long time, why don't you come in and take shelter from the rain for the time being?" Wang Wei left a place for Ruri Kazama and looked at him with a smile, and really warmed a pot of shochu in the car, and the whole workshop was full of the warm and flower-like aroma of wine.

Ruri Kazama watched Wang Jiang's gaze turn from indifferent to flat, but just as he was about to react, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the front of the Maybach.

The beautiful golden pupils reflect the rain curtain falling from the sky and the neon lights of the bridge, and in this hazy and beautiful light curtain, a figure with a paper fan appears in the center of the Maybach headlamp.

It was a woman, dressed in a white hospital gown, with blonde hair splashed in the rainstorm, her plain white skin was more transparent than the white light of Maybach, her left hand was wearing a black paper fan with silver landscape patterns, her right hand was gently behind her back, and her face was as clear as her complexion.

"It seems that even if you are as cunning as you, your whereabouts will be exposed one day." Ruri Kazama looked at the woman and laughed faintly at the general on the side, but was shocked to find that the latter was filled with a strange aura that he had never seen, ancient and long-ago.

In Maybach, Wang Jiang was silent for a long time, sitting in the car looking at the woman who was as white as a ghost through the windshield, and the white python that crossed the sky now brought a rolling roar, and the long-sealed memory was also awakened in the thunderous storm.

The heavy rain at this moment, like a wind and snow, is cold and cold.

He looked at the white woman with daisies and poppies, slowly cracking her blackened teeth and revealing a smile.

"It's... Long time no see. ”

Why don't you cook wine with green plums, talk about it, and enjoy the scene of spring anger that we once looked forward to.

—

The airliner seemed to be affected by the airflow, the plane shook the water ripple circle in the glass, Lin Nian, who was about to put on the blindfold, suddenly paused, took off the blindfold, looked at it for a while, and then looked at Mandy on the side and said, "Did you hear that?" ”

Mandy, who was shaking her head and playing with her mobile phone, noticed Lin Nian's mouth shape, and immediately took off the earphone in her right ear and asked sideways, "Senior brother, what did you say?" ”

"Did you hear that, just now? I felt like my DNA was moving. Lin Nian looked out the window at the black clouds and torrential rain.

"It's okay if the DNA is moved, junior brother, you have PTSD?" Mandy didn't care about teasing and looked down at the phone, and when she was about to put on the headphones, she suddenly turned her head as if she remembered something and asked, "Oh yes, junior brother, do you have ins?" ”

“ins？ Did you say that chat app that is popular in Japan? Lin Nian asked.

"Yes, did you add me?"

"I didn't have an account."

"Sign up for one.,Just now the head of the Uesugi family on ins asked me to let you add her!"

"Eri Uesugi Eri? She still plays ins so trendy? ”

"It's junior brother, you're outdated, bring your phone, I'll help you download it while you haven't left the Japanese border yet..."

The airliner continued to fly into the depths of the pitch-black sea, and under the thick dark clouds, the colorful rainbow bridge rose in the distance, and the thick smoke of gunpowder rose to the sky, merging with the ink-stained clouds, and the grand fire light under the clouds illuminated the entire sleeping Tokyo.
