Chapter 274: Breakthrough
In this peaceful town, there was finally a little turmoil.
Diablo was blocked in front of the cash register because he was too shy to have his pocket.
It's an incredible thing.
He didn't love money, but he was never short of money, even after being robbed of the organization's foundation.
Because Diablo, a low-key and cautious guy like a thousand-year-old tortoise, has long prepared countless back roads for himself when he was in power:
He has more than a dozen fake passports with different names and nationalities, and he also has safe haven accounts in more than a dozen major countries using false identities, each of which contains large enough money to allow him to escape to a foreign country and continue to be a rich man for the rest of his life.
And the card that Diablo just handed out contained a full 500 million yen in it.
"There's no money in the card?"
"Are you mistaken, can't I even pay for the convenience store with the balance on my card?"
Diablo questioned in slightly broken Japanese.
He has a very high IQ and a strong ability to learn, and although it is only a surprise study, he has been able to achieve daily communication with the locals in Duwang Town.
"There's really no money," the cashier said with some embarrassment, "I'm not going to joke about this kind of thing." β
"Try again."
Diablo couldn't help but ask the cashier to try again.
And this time the result ... Or the payment failed.
"How is that possible?"
"Really no money?!"
Diablo's eyes suddenly widened with a bit of a gaffe:
It's not that his concentration is too poor, but this strange event makes him think more uncontrollably:
How could such a large sum of money, a full 500 million yen, disappear out of thin air like this?
Could it be that the fact that he secretly set up a hedging account has been found out by Li Qing and them using the technology of the science and technology group?
Is all this money "recycled" by the organization?
The more Diablo thought about it, the more frightened he becameβif Li Qing and the others could find his hedging account, it would only be a matter of time before they could find his whereabouts based on the account records.
"Damn... Am I going to be exposed? β
Diablo's heart was heavy.
In the face of such a life-and-death event, the small thing of not being able to pay the bill was unconsciously forgotten by him.
However, whether it is an ordinary office worker who is in a hurry to spend a two-person world with his "girlfriend" behind him, or the young cashier with a strange face in front of him, they are slightly dissatisfied with Diablo's time-delayed distraction.
"Sir, sir?"
"Can you pay directly in cash?"
The cashier's brother urged very restrained and politely.
Diablo's practice of occupying the cash register and not paying the bill is indeed very troubling, and he has been able to maintain such a polite attitude because of his work ethics and respect for foreign friends.
However, it is a pity that the cashier and the onlookers are too small, they do not have a broad vision of internationalization and globalization, and they do not know the overall diplomatic situation of maintaining Japan-Italy relations.
Seeing that this foreign friend's face changed for a while, he seemed to be so depressed that he couldn't even take out cash...
Not only did they not sacrifice themselves to help foreign friends pay their bills, and they did not solve the urgent needs of foreign friends with hospitality, but they also put on a stinky face and unabashedly showed their disgust:
"Hey, hey..."
"Gringo, if you don't have money, don't get in the way, okay?"
"There are so many people waiting in the back, if you waste three minutes, we will lose half an hour combined!"
There were some disgruntled shouts from the back of the line.
"Sir, if you may..."
"Please wait for a while."
The cashier's brother also began to pick up a gun and a stick to send off customers.
β.......β
Diablo was silent for a moment.
His face had never been so dark.
Because he has never been so depressed that he can't afford to settle this kind of account - this embarrassment of lack of money makes him feel the humiliation of being a lost dog more deeply and intuitively.
"I've come to this point..."
The discordant greetings of those passers-by rang in my ears.
Diablo quietly clenched his fists:
"The Crimson King!"
This hideous, terrible, blood-laden evil king has finally reappeared in the world with a domineering posture:
"Let's take a leap in time!"
Almost before everyone had time to react, time was cut off.
The disturbing noises of the passers-by became the complete background, and Diablo entered his own time dimension.
Then he suddenly turned away.
The Scarlet King followed suit and aimed his fist at the blonde man in a suit behind Diablo.
Eventually, Diablo took a deep breath...
Gave the Crimson King the most unproductive order since the awakening of the double:
"Get his wallet for me."
The Crimson King did not hesitate to carry out Diablo's orders.
It stretched out its arms and at an extremely fast speed, stretched out its black hand towards the blond man's bulging jacket pocket.
Diablo, on the other hand, turned around cleanly, waiting for his stand-in to give him money.
The Scarlet King is very fast, and it is used for theft, and it is slashed for theft when it is on, which is simply invincible.
It was done in an instant.
Diablo had barely turned around when the Scarlet King handed him the contents of the blond man's bag.
Diablo subconsciously received it in his hand, and was about to borrow some spare money from this "wallet" to spend it...
Then, immediately after, he suddenly felt that something was wrong with his hand...
This "wallet" is so soft that it seems to be a little wet.
Look down again...
"This! He! Horse! Be! Miscellaneous! Whatever! β
Diablo was shocked.
He was shocked to find that what he had stolen from the blonde man's pocket was not a wallet at all, but a severed hand of a woman who had not yet bled cleanly!
Diablo, of course, is not a rookie who has never seen a severed hand, he just hasn't seen this kind of pervert who carries a severed hand in his pocket and strokes it all the time.
Although he Diablo is also a pervert who can lock his biological mother under the floor of his house, kill his adoptive father, kill his neighbors, kill his lover and kill his subordinates, and like to make human body slices...
But this kind of way of killing people and not cleaning them up, and keeping them as souvenirs is really too wild, and he was caught off guard and suffered a lot of spiritual impact.
"No wonder there is a faint smell of blood..."
"I see!"
Diablo's eyes when he looked at the blonde man in the suit changed instantly:
"This is a murderer, a psychopathic murderer."
After this toss, the time of time cutting is almost over.
And Diablo thinks he has no interest in being an enthusiastic citizen who reports criminals, and this kind of showing up will only cause him trouble.
So he thought about it for a moment, and asked the Scarlet King to put the severed hand back into the man's pocket intact.
The whole process was done in the middle of the time, so the blonde man in the suit wouldn't even know that the "girlfriend" in his pocket had just been touched by another man.
His whole being was in a state of timelessness and sluggishness, like all of Diablo's past enemies.
"So, it's over!"
Now, Diablo has no interest in stealing money to buy things.
He just wants to stay away from this perverted murderer now, try to keep a low profile, and reduce the possibility of himself being involved in trouble.
However, at this moment, at the end of the time cut...
The blonde man in the suit, who had broken free from the shackles of Shi Ji and suddenly returned to sobriety, suddenly took a step back.
He instinctively took a step back, and there was an uncontrollable vigilance in his pupils.
"Huh?"
Diablo was keenly aware of something:
What is the other party wary of? Why the sudden backlash?
Everything I just did happened in time, and I should never be discovered.
But now, it's clear that the guy is wary of me...
Why is that?
Diablo was puzzled, and then carefully followed the gaze of the blonde man in the suit:
"Wait... He wasn't looking at me, but..."
"The Crimson King!"
"He's losing his temper because of the Scarlet King who suddenly appeared in front of him after the time cut-"
"This guy can see the stand-in, he's a stand-in messenger!"
Diablo's heart suddenly rippled, but his expression was very indifferent.
And the man in the blonde suit tried his best to pretend that nothing had happened after reacting, and continued to play his character as an ordinary citizen.
This small convenience store seems to be about to return to peace.
But in Diablo's heart, there is an even bigger storm quietly brewing:
"Pervert, murderer, stand-in messenger."
"It's really interesting."
The corners of Diablo's mouth lifted into an undetectable smile:
"The breakthrough I want seems to have been found."
