By midnight, the deserted streets were deserted.

In the magic capital, you walk in the cold wind of the winter night, and what you drift and crush is definitely not a dream, but something else, such as haze, garbage, phlegm, or dog shit......

The humid air is one of the hallmarks of this coastal city, which can bring you unbearable sticky heat in the summer and bone-chilling cold in the winter.

However, tonight, there are a few people who don't seem to mind walking in this wet and cold night.

At one o'clock in the morning, two figures appeared on the street in unison.

The one walking on the left was a yellow man, male, nearly two meters tall, with a fierce face like a ghost; He was wearing an eye-catching white suit, and the burly and solid muscles of his whole body bulged as if they were about to stretch out his pants...... Not to mention at night, even in broad daylight, you can get a little nervous when you see such a person walking across the street.

The one walking on the right is a small white man, only one meter tall and in his early sixties, wearing a very well-fitting brown suit; Although his taste in clothing is not flattering, compared to the one on the left, at least in appearance, he is definitely an approachable and normal person.

In the darkness of the night, the two men marched at different lengths and paces, but maintained exactly the same speed.

After a while, they approached a bookstore in the middle of the side street.

Their goal was clear, and the closed door of the bookstore and the sign with "CLOSE" on it clearly couldn't stop them.

However, just when they were still about ten meters away from the bookstore, another figure suddenly appeared, forcing them to stop.

It was a man of about forty years old with a beard; Even in his coat, you can see the contours of his muscles, if you want to describe it...... He's almost like a character who has stepped out of a fighting game, and just by his size and his stance, you can tell that he is very good at fighting.

"'Noisemaker', the flower mound buries me......" The beard's gaze first stayed on the face of the one on the left for two seconds, and then looked at the one on the right, "'Syndicate', Paul Ackmon......" After he finished reporting the names and numbers of the two people, he paused for half a second, and then said, "These three watches are in the middle of the night, and the two are here, I don't know what you are doing?" ”

"He......h," the syndicate sneered, and replied, "We haven't gone in yet, so why talk about 'coming'?" He licked his lips, "Or ...... Your 'reverse cross' hospitality is to let guests stand on the street and blow the cold wind? ”

"What do you say......" the beard said thoughtfully, "...... That's right. He nodded with a very serious expression, "We usually treat uninvited guests by standing on the street and chatting with them for a while, and then inviting them to visit the pig farm. ”

"Hmm...... I don't know what the connection between these two things is......" the syndicate didn't want to follow the other party's inexplicable train of thought, so he changed the subject and said tentatively, "but I still respect your habits...... Anyway, let's talk about your identity first? ”

"My name is CC99, you can call me Kaijiu." Kai Jiu replied.

"Oh." The syndicate said, "I don't know if Brother Kai is ...... in the 'reverse cross'"

"Miscellaneous." Before the other party could finish asking, Kai Jiu rushed to say these three words.

"Well......" the syndicate was not polite to him, "since he is just a handyman, what are we going to talk to you about?" Why don't you go in and help us find someone to talk to? ”

"You don't seem to understand." As he spoke, Kai Jiu took out a cigar from his pocket and bit it off directly with his mouth...... He swallowed the cigar head, then picked up the cigar and lit the fire; His next sentence came out of his mouth at the same time as a puff of choking smoke, "The so-called 'miscellaneous' is when there are miscellaneous people like you who try to get close to the bookstore...... The one who came out to beat you up. ”

"Then there's no need to talk about it, is it?" A smile appeared on the syndicate's face, but the smile revealed an unrestrained killing intent.

At this point, there is indeed nothing more for the two sides to say.

Kai Jiu knew the purpose of these two people from the beginning, and these two people also knew very well that Kai Jiu would not let them go.

Problems that cannot be solved by words can be solved with fists, which is an eternal iron rule.

At that moment, under the dim street lamp, I saw ...... The light of the night, breaking through the clouds and rising, is the light produced when Hanazuka releases its own energy, that is, the light of "power".

Hanazuka's sudden blow was with all his strength.

He doesn't care about the strength of the other party, and he doesn't plan to "compete" with the opponent, as long as he can complete the task and avoid extraneous branches, why not "kill chickens with a knife"?

Suddenly, Dan saw that the fist could erupt, and the explosion condensed into a track, drawing a trace of energy in mid-air, which hit Kai Jiu's chest.

But a second later...... The energy of the punch dissipated; The fist energy that was enough to split the mountains and the sea, when it hit Kai Jiu's body, it was like a column of water rushing to the cement slab, and the pillar shattered into beads, turning into four directions, and gradually returning to nothing......

"Oh?" Seeing this scene, the syndicate actually showed a look of interest, "There is such a thing? ”

When—

Just as he was about to go up and meet Kai Jiu by himself, a strange sound of hard objects hitting each other suddenly sounded from his own face.

The Syndicate's right eye suddenly burst out with a few sparks at this moment, and his upper body also leaned back to the right because of some kind of impact.

However, he did not fall because of this, and after a breath he regained his strength and smiled, "Huh...... There's a sniper there......" He glared at his bloodshot right eye and scanned the street in the night, "Isn't it good to shoot, don't aim at my heart, aim at my right eye, and the bullet used is also specially made, it looks like it is trying to target me......"

The syndicate is undoubtedly a capable person, and his ability is "hardness", he is currently strong, the skin of his whole body is as hard as a layer of diamond armor, and his bones are as strong as alloy, even his mucosal tissues and internal organs have hardness that exceeds ordinary armor plates.

Although this ability does not "exist unconsciously", it is not difficult to use, and can be maintained with a physical exertion similar to that required to "clench your fists".

Obviously, as early as the process of approaching this bookstore, the syndicate had already turned on his abilities in order to prevent this kind of cold gun from suddenly killing from the shadows.

"What time is it?" After seeing the strangeness of his companion, Hanazuka immediately asked in a deep voice.

"Eleven o'clock." The syndicate's response was also commonplace.

But what happened in the next second was even more terrifying......

Once he had the approximate position of the sniper, Hanazuka turned around and took two slight steps in that direction, then he jerked one leg up, raised it high above his shoulder, and stomped down towards the ground.

If he had stepped on this foot, the whole area would collapse in the direction of his toe: the flat and thick road would be torn and shattered; The foundations of buildings will be destroyed and houses will collapse. Underground pipes can also break, and gas leaking from them can cause cascading explosions and fires......

It's hard to say whether this indiscriminate destruction will kill the sniper hiding in the shadows, but at least it will force him out of his original position and reveal his whereabouts.

Fortunately...... Hanazuka's foot failed to step on it in the end.

Because when Kai Jiu landed at the other party's feet, he pounced on him with a dodge...... He used a grappling motion to wrap his arms around Hanazuka's raised leg, and his thick arm was just across the angle between Hanazuka's thigh and calf; At the moment of contact, Kai Jiu skillfully applied a thrust, flipping Hanazuka backwards, leaving his feet off the ground, and then took out his left hand, wrapped around his opponent's shoulder, and pushed Hanazuka, which was almost in mid-air, towards the ground.

Hanazuka is not a fuel-efficient lamp, as a "noisy master", how can he let his opponent do whatever he wants in hand-to-hand combat?

It's too late, it's too soon! Hanazuka, who had already lost all his physical strength, had nowhere to borrow his strength, and with only his own waist strength and arm strength, he threw an extremely violent swing punch towards Kai Jiu's head.

The power of that fist is terrifying and abnormal, not to mention flesh and blood, even if the iron-beaten Arhat is hit by this fist, I am afraid that it will be broken into melons.

But Kai Jiu's response was calm, he tilted his head as if he took it for granted, and easily avoided this rapid and dangerous surprise attack.

Bang –

Immediately after, there was a muffled sound.

The movement of Hanazuka's body falling to the ground was like a dinosaur falling from a height, and the ground beneath him was smashed into cracks.

Of course, for Hanazuka, the damage caused by this level of "falling" is similar to the injury caused by his own fall when he stepped on a banana peel...... It's not a problem at all.

Compared with the slight feeling of physical pain, which is not even considered painful, this round of confrontation has a greater impact on Hanazuka's psychology; For the first time in his life, Hanazuka felt that he was suppressed by others in the matter of "fighting".

"Give me death!"

The throwing here is not over, the syndicate has already moved, he saw the huge flaw exposed after Kai Jiu's move, and flew forward with a volley whip leg.

The kick was as fast as the wind, and the leg that had turned into an illusion was as hard as a diamond and as flexible as a whip, and swept towards Kai Jiu's back with a wide opening and closing.

The syndicate was convinced that there was no way to avoid it, so he viciously pronounced a fatal declaration in his mouth.

Unexpectedly......

When—

Just as the syndicate flew up and swept his legs into the air, the sniper hiding in the shadows fired another shot at him.

The previous shot hit the Syndicate's right eye, because the Syndicate's feet were firmly on the ground when he was shot, so it only caused his upper body to fall back; But right now, this shot hit his torso, and it was aimed at the center of gravity of his body...... Being in mid-air and having nothing to borrow, the skinny syndicate was pushed away by the impact of the sniper bullet, even though the bullet would not penetrate the skin.

At the same time, the fallen Hanazuka has also launched a counterattack.

A battle-hardened fighting expert, when he is put to the ground, he has countless counter-fighting routines to choose from; Although the previous all-out blow was eaten hard by the opponent, Hanazuka still has firm confidence in his attack ability, and he judged that Kai Jiu also used his ability to block the initial wave of punches, otherwise there was no need to avoid the ordinary hook just now with that defensive power.

Therefore, Hanazuka chose a more prudent tactic this time, giving priority to "hitting" and avoiding a gambling attack...... He first used his legs against his opponent's waist to prevent Kai Jiu from performing a lock on his upper body, and then used his waist strength to lift his upper body, maintaining a body arc similar to "halfway up to sit-ups", and unleashed more than 20 sharp jabs at Kai Jiu with a snap of his fingers.

Seeing this, Kai Jiu grinned, and after blocking a few times with his hand, he simply jumped back a few meters and stopped suppressing Hanazuka closely: "Huh...... Difficult little ghosts, there are a lot of messy crooked paths. ”

The title of "little ghost" did surprise Hanazuka; Although he knows that he is actually quite young (about the same as Sakaki), because of his appearance, everyone around him regards him as a middle-aged uncle in his forties...... Unexpectedly, when I met a real uncle today, I could see that he was actually still young when we met.

"Phew!" Kai Jiu said as he violently spit out half of the cigar in his mouth.

Then, in this battle, he ...... for the first time put on a rather serious fighting stance.

"Let the Ninth Master teach you today, how much difference there is between real fighting and thug fighting."
