Chapter 40: Protect Everything You Want to Protect!
"The Hounds ..... crippled?" Qing Gong whispered softly, but a look of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong? Yunchuan Qinya looked at Qing Gong suspiciously, "Isn't this normal?" β
"Let me ask you, is the leader of the Hound Unit currently present?" Qing Gong turned his head to look at Yunchuan Qinya, "Or, do you know who it is?" β
"Judging from the information given by Toshin, it seems to be the brother of the director of the research institute that you killed, right?" Yun Chuan Qinya nodded, "But it's strange to say, this time the Hound Force's operation really doesn't seem to have a leader." β
No, quite not. Qing Gong frowned and thought, Kihara Gongsheng's brother? Isn't that ...... The patriarch of the Kihara clan, Kihara Phantom? But if I'm not mistaken, the leader of the 'Hound Dogs' should be a man named Kihara Shuta, this ...... What's going on?
Kihara Phantom later handed over the leadership of the Hound Force? Although the combat effectiveness of the hound unit encountered before is not weak, it seems that it can't afford the title of the first dark department...... Qing Gong frowned, puzzled.
"Could it be ......" Qing Gong's heart suddenly shook, and he thought of the conversation he had with Aresta.
"Those who are chasing me are not some kind of guards, are they? They are ......"
"'Hound Dog', a member of the Hidden Dog Force. That's a good guess, but this dark unit is not affiliated with me at the moment. β
"At the moment...... Does that mean the current one can be erased? Interesting......"
"For now!" Qing Gong raised his head suddenly, and in an instant, he finally understood what Aresta meant at the moment, and why the fighting power of the Hound Dog Force was so unbearable.
I thought that Aresta's attitude towards this matter was at most acquiescence, in order to make himself better serve him, but he didn't expect that his attitude towards this matter was not only acquiescence, but should be said to be strongly in favor!
"It turns out that ..... you are the one who calculates the deepest!" Qing Gong's eyes carried a trace of deep jealousy, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
What's wrong with you? Obviously I knew it in my previous life.,The strongest and most mysterious in the entire school city.,It's not those level 5.,It's not the various magicians on the magic side.,It's the chairman of the ..... school city council.,Aresta! I actually believed his promise so casually? Thinking of this, Qing Gong couldn't help but be afraid for a while.
If it had been ....... had been calculated by Aresta three years ago, I was afraid that ......
βleaderοΌβ Looking at the Qing Palace, whose face was flickering, Yunchuan Qinya asked softly.
"Nothing." Qing Gong waved his hand, and his face returned to normal, "You continue. β
From this moment on, the Qing palace made a decision.
After that, about Aresta, you can hide if you can, but if you can't, you have to think twice. Fortunately, the Qing Palace also knows that Aresta is not a person who wants to repay his kindness, as long as he doesn't disturb his plans, he won't take the initiative to take care of you. It's just that this incident also gave him a wake-up call.
"As for funding, there's no need to worry about it now." Seeing that Qing Gong's face returned to normal, Yunchuan Qinya stopped mentioning the matter and continued to smile and said, "In the two days that you were unconscious, the General Council issued an order, due to the struggle between the two dark divisions, ordered both of us to stop, and the harvest of both sides belonged to each other, so Flanda directly looted a large amount of liquidity and some high-level accounts in the ruins of the research institute and the base of the Hound Force, which was simply looting. Speaking of this, Yunchuan Qinya couldn't help but chuckle.
And so it was. Qing Gong couldn't help but sneer, it was really a deviation.
But is this a collaboration? Is it exploitation?
"Whew...... Forget it, I don't want to. Qing Gong exhaled deeply, "Anyway, this matter is over, what should be solved is considered to be satisfactorily resolved, and our goal has been achieved, isn't it?" β
"In addition to the purpose of fighting with tacit understanding." Yunchuan Qinya looked at her forgetful leader angrily and funny, "Obviously this is the first goal, okay?" β
"Well...... There will be opportunities in the future......."
Three days later.
Qing Gong, who was leaning on the hospital bed, looked at the bright sunlight outside the window and couldn't help but let out a comfortable moan.
His injury has actually been healed for a long time, but the frog doctor is still forcibly left in the hospital out of some degree of unease, and it is called "inpatient observation", as for the members of the OWLET, Bu Shu Toxin is busy studying some of the information retrieved from the research institute, Yunchuan Qinya is even more busy building the OWLET base and dealing with funds and issues related to foreign affairs, Fremea is about to accept the development of ability, and is now in the Qing Palace, please learn the basics from Teacher Xiaomeng, Complaining to other people all day long, Flanda is fine, and she always sneaks to the hospital from time to time, but the two of them have nothing to say about staring at each other, and the girl seems to be obsessed with information and communication recently, and Qing Gong is happy to be alone in the hospital.
"Ahh It's so boring! Qing Gong couldn't help but complain, "Just go out and play, you should go out to play in this weather, right?" Let's go home directly, I don't seem to have fed Charlotte in a few days, and I don't know if he will bite open the bag of Miao Xianbao by himself? β
With the idea of "Ah, I'm just going home to feed the cat, and by the way, look at the scenery outside today, it's definitely not an escape", Qing Gong Shi Shiran slipped out of the hospital gate and walked directly outside.
"It's really a pleasure." In the monitor, the Soul Chaser of the Underworld smiled helplessly, and then the wry smile on his face slowly turned into a smile of relief.
"Qing Palace...... This kid of yours still hasn't disappointed you, has he? β
Walking to a ready-to-wear store on the corner, looking up at the same sign as it was three years ago, and then looking at the glass door of the store, the bullet holes and broken glass shards on it had long since disappeared, and Qing Gong couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"It's like a world away." Qing Gong sighed with emotion, and then walked into the ready-to-wear store, and after a while, when Qing Gong came out of it, he was wearing a pure white thin sweater, dark blue jeans, and familiar chestnut flat glasses, everything was as familiar as three years ago.
Slowly walking into the alley where he was hunted down three years ago, looking at the familiar layout that had barely changed, Qing Gong couldn't help but chuckle.
I seem to have a special relationship with the alley.,After escaping from the alley, I escaped into the hospital where I chased souls in the underworld.γI was chased and killed in the alley.γI met Mikoto Misaka in the alley.γChasing the wind and slashing Binghua in the alley...... Thinking about it like this, Qing Gong suddenly felt a sense of anticipation for the next life, which also made him feel a little surprised inexplicably.
You know, this feeling has never been felt before!
"...... yourself" looked at his hand incredulously, and a faint look of confusion flashed in Qing Gong's eyes, "What's wrong?" β
It was as if everything had become incredibly lighter, as if the fog ahead had suddenly been blown away.
"It's something that I put down." The corners of Qing Gong's mouth rose slightly, and finally a smile appeared on the young man's handsome face, not the usual pretended to be a relaxed chuckle, nor the kind of indifferent sneer, but a gentle smile, like the sun, which makes people feel warm smiles unconsciously.
Looking down at his hands, the Qing Palace never regretted that he had wiped out Kihara Gongsheng, that hopeless bastard, for his own purposes, he was heartbroken and did everything, and finally caused an irreparable tragedy for many people, for this kind of person who played with fire and set himself on fire, the Qing Palace did not have the slightest mercy.
If it weren't for the appearance of the Qing Palace, maybe, there would be an unknown number of children buried under the scalpel of this bastard in the future. Thinking of the information that Yunchuan Qinya once sent to him, Qing Gong's heart couldn't help but be filled with murderous intent and deep remorse for Kihara.
"Daddy, kids...... You guys...... Are you alright? Qing Gong slowly raised his head, looked at the bright sunlight in the sky, and muttered softly, only the breeze gently blew in his answer.
"You've got enough things on your back.,Next,Let's go chase the light of the school city.γ Daddy's heroic laughter still seemed to be real, echoing in his ears. And when he woke up suddenly, he looked at the sky again, and the clouds on the horizon seemed to conjure up the smiling faces of children, nodding slightly at him.
"Thank you......" Qing Gong smiled, but there was a faint flash of crystal in his eyes, and then disappeared.
Slowly took out a small box from his pocket and opened it gently, Qing Gong took out a very exquisite fish-shaped pendant carved from wood, and carefully put it on his neck where a steel collar was originally located, and then, looking at the old bank card and a few broken pieces of paper left in the small box, Qing Gong gently closed his eyes.
"Daddy, I have accepted your will," Qing Gong whispered softly, "I'll give you back your things next." With the boy's whisper, a faint golden flash in the boy's hand, and the small box and the contents of the box turned into a burst of fly ash, drifting away into the distance with the gust of breeze.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of the problem he was struggling with before he met Feng Slashing Binghua.
What do you want to do next?
Yourself,Have you found the meaning of being in the school city?
"I want to ...... I found it. With a chuckle, Qing Gong slowly closed his eyes.
"I'm going to ...... Protect everything I want to protect! β
"Are you...... Qing Palace? At this moment, a voice slowly came from behind Qing Gong, with a faint surprise.
Hearing this voice, Qing Gong opened his eyes, chuckled, and slowly turned around.
"It's really you!" Behind the young man, the girl with short brown hair was looking at him with a faint surprise, with a hint of relief in her amber eyes, "You ......"
"What's wrong with me? Bilibili? Looking at Mikoto Misaka's beautiful face, Qing Gong suddenly felt good, "It's been a long time." β
"Who is Bilibili!" Hearing this title, Mikoto Misaka instantly shouted at the Qing Palace like a fried kitten, "I obviously have a name!" Why do you give others such a nickname! Besides, we only met a few days ago! β
"Yes, yes." Qing Gong looked at the girl in front of him, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a little curvature, "However, when we met for the first time, didn't you keep putting electricity on the phone?" β
"You!" The girl looked at Qing Gong angrily, and suddenly there was a hint of fire in her eyes, "Hey! Come and fight me! β
"Huh?" Qing Gong was stunned for a moment, obviously not reacting to Mikoto Misaka's reflex arc, "What did you say?" β
"Let's fight with me!" Mikoto Misaka took a step forward, the light blue arc in her hand crackled softly, but her eyes were always fiery as she looked at Qing Gong, "That day's physical examination, I have become a level 4 powerhouse!" β
βlevel 4οΌβ Qing Gong raised his eyebrows slightly, and intently sensed, indeed, the current on Mikoto Misaka's body was quite much stronger than when he first saw her, and the strength had indeed reached the level of Level 4.
Maybe it was the experience that gave her some stimulation? Qing Gong thought to himself.
"Even if you say so...... Qing Gong smiled bitterly, just about to find some excuse to refuse, suddenly, his gaze froze.
The other end of the alley.
"Ahh A scream came, and then, the image of a young man appeared in the Qing Palace's induction.
"It's over..... it's over! Protein Sources for Next Week! A hedgehog-headed boy with a prickly head who looked at his hands wanted to cry without tears, and there was some yellow viscous liquid faintly flowing out of the bottom of the plastic bag, "Unfortunately! β
"This is ......" Qing Gong's gaze suddenly froze, and then he turned around directly, and in Mikoto Misaka's stunned gaze, he turned around and ran!
"Hey!" The tea-haired girl shouted angrily, "You guy! Seeing that he really couldn't catch up with the Qing Palace, he stomped his foot with hatred.
"But...... It's okay," the girl who had been sulking alone for a while suddenly laughed, "how do I feel...... is wrong. β
The sun shines in the alley, and it seems to shine on the flower field in the girl's heart, which is bright.
