Chapter 51
The defense on Kitagawa Keiko's face was finally completely crushed by his words. She put her hand on her chest, as if trying to hide the trace, and took two or three steps back in succession among the bushes, her long silky hair was messy with flower branches, and even left a bloody mark on her cheek: "I don't ...... I don't know what to do...... How do you know that it's me? ”
But the next moment she was stunned.
Because of the slightly mocking smile on Ueno Kanyanagi's face, he nodded: "Sure enough, it's that thing." Sure enough, it's you. ”
Keiko bit her lip: "You ......"
"It wasn't certain before, but now it's certain." Ueno Kanyanagi looked around - it was empty. Then he stepped forward and grabbed Kitagawa Keiko's wrist tightly, squeezing it with a clatter, "Now tell me everything you know about the Tao - this is my personal request." Tell me that this matter will be over, and there won't be a second person in the inspection hall who knows about it. I'll give you the last chance. ”
A fierce momentum emanated from his eyes, and the gaze in those eyes was like a sword, and the sound was almost audible.
Keiko Kitagawa exhaled in pain, trying to pull her hand out. But the hand was cast from steel, and it didn't move. Filled with rage, she cried out, "Let me go! Otherwise, I'll call for help! ”
"You can give it a try." Ueno Kanliu stared at her deadly, "If you dare to scream, you must have the consciousness of burying your bones here - presumably the cherry blossoms will bloom more brilliantly next year." ”
Keiko Kitagawa was frightened by these words. She frowned and carefully observed the man's expression, and then realized...... It wasn't like he was joking.
He really dared. Kill yourself in the courtyard of the inspection hall? The eldest daughter of the Kitagawa family?!
"Who the hell are you?" Keiko no longer moves. She also lowered her voice and asked uneasily. "You...... It's not just the Intelligence Officer of the Inspection Agency, right? ”
"You're not stupid at home." Ueno Kanliu snorted coldly, "Tell me what you know." The assurances I just made are still valid. ”
"I'm ......" Keiko bit her lip hard. Her once invincible weapon lost its usefulness in a moment. This man is Ueno Kanyanagi, and he doesn't seem to know what it means to pity fragrant jade. And his eyes—the fanaticism and persistence that lie beneath the coldness...... Keiko has never seen it.
So she finally relented.
The "succubus" may have experienced life and death, but it was someone else's life and death - the deceased died on her smooth and soft body, with a smile on her lips at the last moment. It was a death without howling and blood, only an obscene atmosphere and a refreshing pleasure.
But it's different right now.
She pointed to Ueno Guanliu's hand, and her face showed charming pain: "You let go of me first, it hurts." ”
The man looked at her for a moment, then let go of his hand. There were bruises on his fair wrists. The tips of the fingers are even a little purple. Keiko Kitagawa rubbed her wrists while looking at Ueno Kanyanagi's face. Suddenly smiled: "You are from the Gate of Truth?" ”
Ueno Kanliu looked at her coldly: "No. Again, my patience is limited. ”
The smile on Keiko's face vanished. Because she noticed that the other party put his left hand on the scabbard at his waist and flicked his thumb. A little chill shines through. The cold seemed to bring chills, and the chill soaked every inch of her skin. She had to dispel some other thoughts in her mind
"I threw it in." She frowned slightly. Said uneasily. Something terrible and bizarre seems to come to mind. "It was indeed given to me by my father—I thought it was just a piece of amber. Rare amber with a ruby in the middle. ”
"Ruby. Has it ever been identified? Ueno Kanyanagi asked.
"Nope. It's something that has been handed down from our ancestors, and it's not going to be sold. There is no need for identification. Keiko said, "I've been wearing it since my father gave it to me." It's just that there is an inexplicable sense of intimacy, and I feel like it very much. Later......"
"When did it start to feel different?" Kanyanagi Ueno interrupts her memories and gets straight to the point.
Keiko Kitagawa was a little surprised by his question—the man seemed to know quite well about the gem. However, he was originally a rather mysterious figure, so he thought about it and replied, "The last few months...... It will make me dream. I dreamed that it was talking to me, telling me that it needed strength. Need to get strength from my body......"
"How do you get it? Direct absorption? The burn on your chest is what it did? ”
Keiko's mood gradually calmed down. In fact, Ueno Kanyanagi was indeed the first person to hear her say about it herself. It's a good feeling to share secrets – even better if it's not the situation at hand. She even thoughtfully straightened her hair and said softly, "When it absorbs my strength, it's in a dream—it turns into a flame—the kind...... Pure and beautiful flames. But I knew it was happening. As you noticed—" she pointed to her full, round chest, "waking up leaves a mark and tells me it's not a dream." That feeling is incomparable, human ...... Humans can't give me that feeling. That's a shudder of the soul! It makes people tremble from the depths of their souls to the extreme......"
Ueno Kanliu frowned slightly, and didn't look at Keiko's face that appeared with a pink glow excitedly: "And then it told you to throw it into the Chiyan volcano?" In a dream? ”
"It never tells me anything." Keiko shook her head, her face gradually regaining some confidence, as if she felt a little proud of the memories of spending time with the gem—the pride of having seen the wonders of the world like no other. "It just made me feel like what I was supposed to do."
"Why do you want to kill Hoshino?" Ueno Kanyanagi asked.
This time Keiko didn't answer immediately, but looked at him. Ueno Kanliu smiled faintly: "There is no listening equipment." I have more important things to do than condemn you. ”
Keiko Kitagawa spreads her hands: "It needs as much force as possible before falling into the volcano. And I need strength so that I can resist those toxic gases. As for Hoshinomi - it's clear that he died at the mouth of the wolves. ”
Ueno Kanyanagi smiled, not paying attention to her thoughts. Knowing what he wanted, he smiled and tilted his head: "You can go." But you should know how to keep today's events a secret—there is no one in this world that I can't kill. ”
Keiko looked at the knife on his waist: "One line cut is really so magical?" I've heard that this is a sword that is comparable to the clouds of the sky. ”
Ueno Kanyanagi sneered: "I thought you should pay attention to what your gem has become now, and what kind of consequences it will cause." ”
Keiko Kitagawa took a few steps back. Ueno Kanyanagi didn't stop her. So she breathed a sigh of relief, slowly walked past the two cherry blossom trees, distanced herself from Ueno Kanyanagi, turned her head and said, "No matter what it becomes......"
She stared at the other party's eyes, and a happy expression appeared on her face: "It's a good thing for this world. In this world...... It should have been purified a long time ago. You can't stop it. No one can stop it. ”
Ueno Kanliu was slightly stunned, and said mockingly: "Try it." ”
Keiko Kitagawa sneered for the first time and gave him a middle finger from a distance.
But the other party was not annoyed, but showed a faint smile: "I advise you, don't tell your family about today's conversation." I'm not going to threaten you with death at this point - if you do, then you'll know what life is better than death. ”
Then he turned and walked towards the main entrance of the inspection hall.
Jingzi stood stunned for a moment, and asked loudly, "What do you mean?" ”
But Ueno Kanyanagi didn't answer her.
Keiko frowned slightly, pondering what he had just said. It didn't sound like a general threat, and there was a chilling chill between the words. However...... What does that mean exactly?
But she finally didn't figure it out. So he let out a sigh of relief and turned around and walked towards the parking space he parked outside the courtyard. After taking a few steps, he stopped again and touched his chest. The extremely light pigmentation is still there, and it is difficult for ordinary people's eyes to notice.
She looked northwest again. Ikeam Volcano, right in that direction?
Let's go, let's go...... She muttered to herself in her heart, grew to her heart's content, and became stronger. Then, purify this worldly realm.
And Ueno Kanyanagi stood at the window on the second floor of the inspection hall, quietly watching her.
This woman......
It's crazy.
But it seems that today something different was seen in her eyes. She has the arrogance and arrogance that is unique to some rich girls, and the pride and self-confidence of the capable themselves. Yet underneath these two...... There seems to be some other emotions hidden. It's soft, it's pure. It's just that......
On Keiko Kitagawa's body?
Ueno Kanyanagi shook his head, turned and left the window.

At this time, an old man had just finished reading a report.
In front of him, two men in black robes stood solemnly, their hands lowered, and they waited quietly.
It's a warm room, but there's nothing superfluous. In fact, there were no necessary furnishings—white walls, white floors, white ceilings, three people in the middle of the room. It's like being in a three-dimensional space built from data.
The old man put the thin page in front of him, pondered for a while, and asked, "So, the Chinese will cooperate with the Japanese?" ”
He spoke English.
"Yes." One of the blonde men replied in a low voice.
"Just wait and see." "This time, we don't need to interfere with them. ”
The other man frowned slightly: "But that's ......"
The old man interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "The Lord doesn't care. ”
He thought for a moment, smiled slightly, and looked at the report: "The Lord doesn't care. ”
