Chapter 148: The Dead of Rich Man's Chess

Black Gate Club.

The lost Lamb returns to the old seal of the door.

The patchwork of newspaper clippings burned out.

Su Qi followed Mr. Andersen and them back to the club, and the scene they witnessed was a mess.

Teacups were thrown on the ground and shattered, miscellaneous wine cabinets, damaged curtain wall hangings, overturned tea tables, rich chess scattered all over the ground, scratched sofas, and information files on bookshelves were also littered all over the floor, and there were deep claw marks everywhere on the walls, floors, and furniture.

In the Black Gate Club, it was like being swept by a wild beast, leaving a mess behind.

……

"Ding."

The elevator doors open.

The Hatter pushes Director Alice's wheelchair back.

Director Alice looked at the mess of the Black Gate Club, silent and silent, although her face was expressionless, but the few people present knew that the calmer the director became, the more it often meant that he had left the anger.

The last time Director Alice was angry, it was Su Qi who was cursed and killed by the Lower Dog God.

The three story kings of the Black Gate Club were dispatched, and in one night, in addition to the spirit boy and the only few remaining slander mages, the entire grassroots was wiped out, and all of them were arrested by the Black Gate.

……

"Is this a séance's revenge?"

Green walked through the black door and creaked on the shards of glass all over the floor.

"Deliberately moved a ghost from Tochigi County to bring us all over, just to come over and smash it, then they are too naïve."

"It's obviously impossible, isn't it?"

Andersen beckoned Su Qi to come along, straightened the overturned table again, and lifted the rich man's chessboard and put it away.

Su Qi picked up the chess pieces scattered on the ground and rearranged them on the chessboard.

Then, turning around and getting ready to clean up the rest.

But, at this moment.

"Click......"

The sound of dice falling on the board sounds.

……

Hiss......

Su Qi turned his back to the chessboard, not knowing what was going on behind his back.

But a strange chill rushed straight to the brain.

That seems to ...... Meaning ominous.

"Don't look back."

Director Alice's reminder was transmitted to Su Qi's ears for the first time.

Su Qi felt an inexplicable fear growing, his face turned slightly pale, and he swallowed his saliva.

After catching a glimpse of Hans Christian Andersen, who was standing not far in front of him, Green and them all looked away.

……

"Click...... Click......"

The chess pieces walked on the delicate wooden chessboard, and each step was like dripping the marrow of fear in the depths of Su Qi's brain.

She ...... Here it ......."

"Click...... Click......"

"With ...... Let's go...... Tinder ......"

"Click...... Click......"

"Tinder...... Ignite...... The Revolutionary ...... of the Fighters"

"Click...... Click......"

"It's your turn."

"Click."

……

With the last sound, the soft sound of the dice being placed on the board, everything came to an abrupt halt.

The fear is gone, and the weirdness is hidden.

But Su Qi still kept his posture in place, and didn't dare to make any movements, until he heard Director Alice's voice come again.

"It's okay."

Su Qi watched Mr. Andersen and them all move, so he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the fine cold sweat on his forehead, and turned around cautiously.

……

On the rich man's chessboard on the table that had just been placed, the dice were placed in the corner of the chessboard in front of Su Qi.

It was as if it was his turn, as the voice said.

A chess piece on the chessboard also obviously changed its position and took the grid.

The chess piece is the image of a hermit shrouded in a cloak.

The pieces have a dull gray matter.

This means that it is a member of the former Tokyo branch.

……

"Is this a ghost?"

Su Qi swallowed nervously and asked.

"Perhaps."

Director Alice's wheelchair was pushed by the hatter, who did not give an affirmative answer, but did not deny it.

"Yes...... Doesn't it mean that there is an old seal of the Black Gate, and ghosts and gods can't come in? ”

"You can't go through that door."

Shanruzod explained to Su Qi.

"If it was inside the Black Gate, then ...... It can't get out either. ”

"Why did it happen? Is it eating logic? Or is it behavior? ”

Su Qi asked.

"This is unknown, after all, this rich man's chessboard is something left over from the former Tokyo branch."

"Compare this to what it means?"

Green chimed in.

"It seems to have left a trail?"

……

She took the tinder with her.

The spark ignites the revolution of the fighters.

In general, something like this.

"That's it, right?"

Shan Ruzod looked at Director Alice and said.

Alice nodded.

Green asked, confused

"What is it?"

"You weren't in Tokyo yet."

Shanlu Zodd glared at Green with a bad attitude, and turned his head to look at Su Qi

"It's something I got when I went to Ningyocho with a newcomer earlier."

Su Qi was stunned for a moment and remembered.

"What about the shock sleeve?"

"That's right."

Yamaruzod nodded.

Director Alice had been pushed into the councillor's chamber by the hatter in a wheelchair, and after a while, came out with a box in her hand, and the box was empty.

"The Vibration Sleeves were taken away, and they were indeed here for the Vibration Sleeves."

Su Qi also realized.

When the mage slanderer in Humanyocho gave them this succumbing, he said that this vibrating sleeve was very important, and it was related to the spirit child of the séance.

Later, he was attacked by the Dog God Curse, which is also suspected to be related to this interception of Zhensleeve.

Yamaruzod snorted.

"It seems that this was planned by the séance, to lure us away through the ghost god who moved in, and then take advantage of this opportunity to steal the sleeves."

When Green understood, he spread his hands

"So, those cowardly slanderers of the séance are the so-called fighters? The tinder means ......"

"Literally."

Director Alice said suddenly.

Su Qi and the others looked over.

Hans Christian Andersen said

"News from the divination house?"

Director Alice nodded.

"On my way back from the Cabinet Office, the Fortune Teller brought me a prophecy."

"What's the content?"

Director Alice turned to the hatter and nodded.

The hatter took a step forward and unbuttoned the front of his tuxedo, revealing his ribcage...... A hollow ribcage like a metal cage.

……

Su Qi was slightly stunned.

The flesh and blood of the hatter's body can be clearly seen, except for the hollow ribcage of the chest, which is supported by a metal fence, as if a part of the body has been dug up and embedded in a cage.

Doll, Su Qi remembered what Mr. Andersen had told him, the identity of the hatter.

The metal cage was not empty, but a living thing, a ...... Crow.

One with three eyes, a crow.

"Lost lamb, return to the old seal of the door."

Director Alice makes an ancient kingdom gesture.

The crow opened its mouth and spat out words.

"When the spark is ignited, all order and rules will be burned out, ushering in an equal restart ......"

……。
