When Claire came out of the hospital, Miyako and Koijiro were amazed at how quickly he recovered, and although martial artists were different from ordinary people, they didn't expect such an exaggeration.

However, Claire was discharged from the hospital so quickly, which also made the two of them happy, and the reasons for their joy were similar, the difference was that Mei Yanzi was happy that her bartender had finally recovered and her bar could open again; And the reason why Koijiro is happy is that he performed so well this time, will his predecessors teach him a trick and a half.

In their YY, the daily work still begins, the bartending of the bartending, the serving of the wine, and the rest of the salary.

Claire still goes to the bamboo forest every night to exercise, because he thinks that a woman with strange whereabouts like Mai Zhuo, even if she hides, she can't hide anywhere, so it is better to exercise in the original place generously, and save yourself from finding such a secluded place again.

In this way, Claire is exercising her body in this calm but not boring life, and she is also preparing for the coming storm.

———————————————— four months later————————————————————

Quiet night in the bamboo forest

A man with a lean body but not a strong figure was intently striking a dummy in iron sheets, only to see that the dummy's body was already covered with marks of punches and kicks, and the iron pillar attached to the dummy's torso, although it still supported the dummy, was also shaky, making people wonder if the only pillar of the dummy would be broken in the next moment.

The man would repeat those moves every once in a while, punches, elbows, shoulders, shins, knees, ....... It seemed that every part of his body had become his weapon. This man who is constantly refining his fighting skills is naturally Claire.

After another round of fierce attacks, Claire, who was breathing his restless breath, closed his eyes, in the past 3 months, he has not encountered any strange things or people, except for bartending at the bar, he comes to the bamboo forest to practice his fighting skills. The results of the training in the past few months are naturally remarkable, after exercising her reaction speed by dodging the bamboo strips, Claire adjusted her melee combat reaction ability to the highest peak that the current conditions can adjust, coupled with the increase in the weight on her body and the constant practice of hitting the dummy, Claire can say that after these devil training, even if she encounters Mai Zhuo again, she will not be so embarrassed, of course, the premise is that Mai Zhuo's strength must be the same as the last time.

Claire, who had finished breathing, suddenly opened her eyes, and the essence that opened her eyes made people feel tingling when they saw it. Claire slowly stood up, twisting her neck and moving her wrist.

"Bang!" The fist-like knife slashed hard at the dummy's deformed iron sheet, and the dummy itself didn't have to think about it, the missing pieces of material were enough to prove that the dummy might be dying.

Claire's hand on the dummy's waist did not retract, on the contrary, after the other hand quickly put on the dummy's neck, Claire's hand that cut on the dummy's waist slammed into force, and with a "bang", the tin dummy was thrown to the ground at this moment, and finally fell apart, ending its tragic fate that had been ravaged since it was made.

Claire was not satisfied, after he carried out this series of actions, he suddenly ran forward and kicked a whip leg to a row of newly grown and mature green bamboos, the crackling sound sounded terrifying, but after this whip leg, Claire stood up with both hands on the ground, and kicked the bamboo that had not fallen side by side, and the crackling bamboo around it was enough to prove how strong this kick was.

Claire, who had already finished training tonight, took a deep breath after cleaning up this mess, the day after tomorrow is the selection for the King of Fighters competition, and it should be possible for her to enter the official competition with such a long training.

It suddenly occurred to Colonel Sidon tomorrow that someone came back to look for me, who is it, could it be those two two goods? It's useless to think about it anymore, so let's save more energy for the upcoming fighting tournament. Thinking of this, Claire went back to the bar, then took a shower, lay down on the bed and quickly fell asleep.

Early the next morning

Claire, who got up early, asked her for a long vacation after calling the lazy boss up, and Mei Yanzi widened her already big eyes, but after being surprised for a while, she agreed, and Claire, who was still weaving a reasonable reason, couldn't help but be stunned, Mei Yanzi saw his stupid appearance, and laughed out loud, she squinted and looked at Claire with a smile, and said: "Okay, don't you just want to participate in that King of Fighting Competition, people don't know, come back so late every night, The change of clothes was so dirty that a fool could see what someone was doing. ”

After finishing speaking, Mei Yanzi seemed to feel that what she said was too ambiguous, so she explained with a blushing face: "You... Don't think about it, I.. I only saw it by chance, so I didn't mean to care about you. ”

Claire glanced at the inexplicably blushing girl, and he walked out of the door of the bar, and his figure became smaller and smaller in the eyes of the beautiful girl.

After making sure that she was not being followed, Claire re-entered the dilapidated building where the Brazilian mercenaries were kept

This time, after Claire walked into the residential building, she felt the dark whistle that she hadn't noticed last time, the eyes hidden in the dilapidated walls.

Claire glanced at them and left them alone. Only those who were seen were secretly frightened, the last time I came, this kid's perception ability was not so strong, our existence is known except for Colonel Seaton, not even Clark or Ralph.

Claire didn't have time to think about what the sentinels were thinking, he just walked straight to the door, stood straight and knocked on the door that made strange noises.

"Please come in." This time it was still the muffled words of Colonel Seadon, who didn't like to talk much.

Clay pushed open the door and walked in, and as he walked in, he felt two breaths that were even more powerful than him. Claire looked at the two burly figures standing on either side of the room, one on the left and one on the right.

These two breaths are essentially the same, but the personalities of the two seem to affect some of the breath of Pang Mo.

The burly man standing on the left with his hands behind his back wears a black cap, but under the cap is a pair of sunglasses that cover his eyes.

This burly man was wearing a black T-shirt with a blue bulletproof vest on the outside, and the wide military pants and the long boots used by the soldiers added the iron-blooded feeling of the soldiers to his calm temperament.

The burly man on the right wears a red turban, which is different from the one just introduced, and there is a provocative feeling in his eyes, and the same bearded chin with his appearance makes people feel like a gasoline barrel, which can be fried at a moment's notice.

Similarly, the burly man was also dressed in a brown T-shirt with a red bulletproof vest on the outside.

Colonel Seaton was the first to break the silence after watching Claire make eye contact with two of his men: "These two are my ace mercenaries, the one standing on my right hand is Clark Steel, and the one standing on my right hand is Ralph Jones. This is Claire Xia. After introducing them, Colonel Sidon stopped talking, but sat silently in his chair, as if to familiarize them with each other for a while.

Claire remained silent after Colonel Seaton's introduction, forming a silent landscape like Clarke, who also did not speak and had no expression next to him.

Ralph looked at the two stuffy gourds, had to hold his forehead with his hand, and shouted unhappily: "Fake, I didn't expect another stuffy oil bottle." ”

When Colonel Seaton saw that the exchange between the three of them had ended, he spoke up again, "Our mission this time is to investigate the truth behind the scenes of the R consortium that held the martial arts tournament this time. Of course, the best way to do a survey is to participate in person, so we will participate in a team. As for the way of the competition, I think you all investigated it in advance, and as for the discussion after the competition, we still held it here, so what questions do you have? ”

Clark and Ralph stood by without saying a word, but Claire, who seemed the most silent, suddenly asked, "Colonel, are you going to play?" ”

As if he had anticipated this question for a long time, Colonel Sidon calmly replied: "Naturally, I am going to participate in the competition. What, you have a problem? ”

Suddenly, Claire, who already felt that she had been pitted, wailed infinitely in her heart: "What about the cheat, do you want me to not even pass the qualifiers." Claire, whose face did not change, looked at the boss in front of him who was even worse than his original boss, and cursed infinitely in his heart that he did not give birth to a son and did not have a cup when he gave birth to a daughter.

Despite scolding the colonel ten thousand times in her heart, Claire said calmly on the surface: "I understand. ”

After saying that, Claire left without looking back, and the house began to be lively.

Ralph, who had been working hard to keep his face tight, suddenly bent down with laughter, and the appearance of holding his stomach and laughing violently made people wonder if he had a brain.

I saw Ralph laughing and saying intermittently: "No, seriously, didn't you just see this kid walking out with a stinky face, hahaha, the colonel's hand is really amazing." ”

Then after being glanced at by Colonel Seadon, Ralph did not dare to laugh as before, but his slightly trembling body showed that he was still not finished laughing.

Colonel Seaton isn't playing Claire, it's just that Claire's momentum has grown rapidly lately. Even when he looked at Claire's momentum, he had a feeling that this kid had taken a stimulant, so this arrangement was actually to test Claire's overall strength.
