β¦β¦
- At this moment.
The south side of Xingzhou West Lake Scenic Area.
Manhao Valley, Manjue Long Road, Mother and Baby Home Postpartum Rehabilitation and Confinement Center.
A diminutive man with a baby in his arms broke through the door.
He hurried to the front desk, his face bruised, his eyes glazed and his glasses shattered.
"Can you ...... Can you breastfeed the child? The man panicked, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, because of the height problem, he bent his body and wanted to lift the doll to the counter.
"I've been looking for a long time...... I asked a lot of people and said that there is breast milk ...... here."
Seeing this, the receptionist at the front desk was suspicious.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?"
"I've got money!" The man ignored it and took out a handful of renminbi from his pocket.
Seeing that the guest had paid for it, the hostess hurriedly contacted the confinement lady and handed the strange little gentleman a registration form.
"Please fill this in!"
The man held the baby in one hand, sat down at the small table with the list, barely recognized the Chinese characters, wrote them randomly, and finally took out the police officer card and signed his name according to the three crooked characters [Su Xingchen] on the police officer card.
The baby's cry grew weaker and weaker, like a small flame in the night, the only bit of warmth in a man's life, about to be extinguished in this pleasant temperature of nineteen degrees Celsius.
"Please hurry up......"
Under the man's shattered glasses, two lines of tears flowed.
"Thank you very much, thank you very much, please hurry. Please hurry up and ......"
The hostess frightened the odd little daddy, and she took out a warm bottle from under the counter, and before she could reply, the bottle was snatched away by the other party.
Look at the posture of this little father holding the child, the doll has milk to drink, and it gradually stops making trouble.
"Weirdo ......," the hostess frowned and thought to herself.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
The scenery on both sides of the window flew by.
In the car stereo, there is still a veteran drag racing single that Su Xingchen loves.
Ye Bei scratched his neck and just finished turning over the information of the two cultural relics.
Su Xingchen drove the car as a woman, and drove into the West Lake Scenic Area in front of the display results of the tracker on the quartz watch.
"I just took a selfie and sent it to Tianshu."
Ye Bei raised his head: "Do you know your identity?" β
"Yes, it's a Japanese named Mieko Ono, who traveled to Xingzhou with her husband Ono Shengxuan, and also brought her children."
"A family of three? Are you sure this chick is a knife thief? Seeing that their children are only two or three months old, do they have such a play? When is stealing part of early childhood education? Ye Bei pursed his lips, unable to understand the family's behavior.
"Yes, that's right, they have a special profession." Su Xingchen explained: "My husband, Ono Shengxuan, is a kendo dojo master, and his ancestors are descended from the Imperial Son Shinorizen, also known as Ono Tadaaki. β
Ye Bei: "What do you mean?" β
"In the history books, this person is a very strong person with a sword, and more than 400 years ago, it would be difficult to find an opponent in the Dongying Village Chief's weapon fight, and he was called the Sword Master. I can be sure of this because Ono Tadaaki's teacher, Ito Ichitosai, who also lived to be almost ninety years old, is also known as the Sword Master, and the two died in the same year (1628), and they are absolutely inseparable from the demon sword. Su Xingchen explained to Ye Bei: "The Black Light Taidao is also known as the Soul Shifting Sword, and according to legend, the Tantric Zen master used this knife to incarnate a golden-winged Dapeng and flew to the West to seek scriptures. There are countless tributary sects in Ono's lineage of sword transmission so far, and the couple Sheng Xuan and Mieko are one of them. β
The car drove through the Tiger Run Park, Ye Bei also saw the zoo in the distance in the park, the tall trees on both sides blocked the sun, and he listened carefully to the stars telling this past in a quiet female voice.
The couple live in the countryside of Fukuoka Prefecture in the northern part of Kyushu, which is also home to the Yawata Iron Works, Japan's largest steel mill. Mieko is a student of Sheng Xuan's dojo. As for more information, it is not available. Su Xingchen honked the horn at the car in front of him, and drove into the field without saying a word, forcing him to run the red light smoothly and eat six points.
Five minutes later, Ye Bei was in a complicated mood and got out of the car with Su Xingchen.
He saw the signboard of the Mother and Child Center, and also saw Su Xingchen's body sitting by the window, falling asleep due to overwork.
Mieko hugged the infant child tightly with her three-inch arms, and the black cloth wrapped in the knife landed on the floor on the side, as if it was far less important than her son.
What puzzled Ye Bei was - what kind of consciousness did this mother have to shoot at her own body.
- To get out? For freedom? Or ...... For the little baby in her arms, she can have a fresh start.
Ye Bei asked Su Xingchen.
"What now? She seems to be asleep......"
Su Xingchen strode towards the gate, holding back a fire because of the discomfort of the arrival of the menstrual period.
"Of course it's back! I now feel like I've eaten over a hundred devil peppers and can breathe fire. β
didn't wait for the stars to take a few stepsβ
- Mieko's extraordinary martial arts intuition woke her up!
She pulled her gun out of her pocket! Pointing at Xingchen's head through the glass, he stepped back step by step.
Xingchen did not lose his momentum, kicked open the door of the mother and child center, and raised his gun to confront him.
Mieko held the child and retreated to the counter, and when the hostess saw what the two of them were in their hands, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to make a sound, and secretly squatted aside.
"What's going on...... The children are fighting for this. β
Apparently, the hospitality misunderstood something.
Su Xingchen was aggressive, with a female body, and the wound on his leg made it difficult for him to move forward, pressing forward little by little.
"Put down the gun."
Mieko had tears in her eyes, her breathing gradually became short, and the doll in her arms woke up and began to call again.
She was like a parrot with a tongue, and she was also screaming.
"Put down the gun!"
Su Xingchen said lightly: "Mieko, you will die." β
Mieko: "You'll die before me." β
Su Xingchen turned the muzzle of the gun and pointed at the swaddling clothes.
"If you shoot me in the head, your son will die sooner than we do."
Mieko gasped, as if all her strength had been drained.
"How dare you !!"
Ye Bei sneaked in at this time.
He comforted the two gunmen.
"Ξ΅=( ΜΞΏ'*)...... Don't be so angry, let's talk about it well, you don't have to fight to death as soon as you come up, right? Hey...... If you encounter any difficulties in life, there will always be a solution. You say yes, right? Leadership. β
Su Xingchen took out another gun from his pocket.
"I'm going to break his fingers."
Bang β
Ye Bei's fingers were broken in response, and several waiters in the maternal and child center held their heads and screamed in shock, squatting down.
Su Xingchen said indifferently to Mieko: "You saw it? My marksmanship is very accurate, I won't miss, as long as you dare to act rashly, your son's life will definitely be lost. β
The baby in Mieko's arms cried harder and harder, and the cold sweat on her forehead grew.
Qi Qi hid outside the door, laughing so much that tears and snot bubbled out.
Ye Bei bent down and took his fingers back, and he could deeply feel how strong the Xingchen combat power of the eldest aunt was at this moment.
Despite this, Ye Bei was still patient, took out the tape recorder, played a lullaby, he neatly took the bottle on the table, brewed the milk with the swift method of a ghost, and mixed it with a little bit of worry-free tea.
I saw him come to Mieko's side and gently open the cap
Mieko still pointed her gun at the stars, pointing directly at her own body, jealous, and said intently: "Get out." β
Ye Bei gently took a sip of the doll's milk and covered the pacifier, indicating that he was not hostile.
He whispered, "βdon't let your child go hungry." β
Mieko slowly, slowly put down the gun.
Xingchen also lowered his gun, took the black cloth bag, and uncovered the black cloth, revealing two of the knives.
Mieko took the bottle in Ye Bei's hand and slowly fed it to the baby in her arms.
Xingchen distinguished the [Daide Shidian Black Light Tai Knife] from the features on the scabbard of the knife, he took out this one and walked towards Mieko, stopping step by step, not daring to relax at all.
The baby drank the milk tea, stopped crying, blinked his eyes, and couldn't tell which one was the mother for a while.
Xingchen's order was simple and to the point: "Change back." β
Mieko's expression was grim: "No...... They're going to find me, they're going to kill me. β
"You can turn yourself in." Su Xingchen said: "The police will protect you." β
"Who will protect my son!?" Mieko's expression gradually became excited.
Ye Bei interjected.
"Miss Mieko, I recommend that you surrender yourself, babies need breast milk to boost their immunity when they are young, and they also need a stable place to live and get in the sun frequently, otherwise it will affect bone growth. If you are willing to cooperate with the investigation, the Criminal Procedure Law can release you on bail pending trial while breastfeeding, until you find a suitable guardian, provided that you do not affect public order. β
Su Xingchen gave Ye Bei a thumbs up.
Ye Bei also took a thumbs up.
Ms. Mieko didn't know what to do for a while.
She looked at the baby in her arms and reached out her little hand towards her own flesh.
"I see, the sword is for me."
Mieko gives the baby in her arms to Habei.
She took the demon knife in Su Xingchen's hand and took a deep breath.
A turquoise sword light flashed, and before he could put away the sword, Su Xingchen realized that he had returned to his familiar body.
"Ah...... That's it. Xingchen loosened his neck, stretched out his hands and feet, and inserted the demon knife back into its scabbard.
When Miss Mieko returned to her body, her eyes were still guarded and vigilant, and she only showed a slightly relieved expression when she hugged the child back.
"I'm going to breastfeed the baby, what's the matter, I'll talk about it later."
After speaking, she hurriedly walked into the mother and baby room, without mentioning half a word about the demon knife.
Ye Bei and Su Xingchen looked at each other, took out two knives, took out their police officer cards and the receptionists of the mother and child center to explain the situation.
The two of them went to the fried chicken restaurant next door and ordered two fast foods, chatting while eating.
"What do you think?" Ye Bei asked.
Su Xingchen: "Won't you know when you wait for the first trial?" β
Ye Bei knocked on the point: "She just said ...... [them]." β
When Su Xingchen was eating French fries, he asked for two more packets of tomato sauce and stuffed the ketchup into his pocket, and Ye Bei didn't know what was wrong with this little leader.
I also saw Qiqi happily closing his mouth at his favorite fried chicken bucket, and burped after drinking the Coke.
I heard the little leader say: "There must be more than one accomplice, and this couple has a connector in the country under the guise of tourism." β
"What about these two demon swords?" Ye Bei asked.
Su Xingchen shook his head.
"Only one is a demon knife, and the other is a mortal."
He pushed the Black Light Knife aside, revealing the other sword in the black cloth bag.
The scabbard is wrapped in pearl fish skin, there is no rope tie, and there is no blade, it is plain iron, the blade is about 90 centimeters long, it is a long scroll of broadsword, the blade body is pitch black, very heavy.
Su Xingchen looked at it for a while and inserted it back into the sheath.
"It's Hu Che, it's quite famous, if this thing is Mieko's saber, I believe she is a master with a sword, this kind of thing is too heavy for a normal man to wield, it's too long."
Wait for Su Xingchen to contact the Tianshu General Administration and send the Black Light Taidao to the hands of the [Tianma] logistics brother.
The two returned to the Mother and Child Center again and began the interrogation process.
