Chapter 3: Infiltration
Chapter 3 Infiltration
In the quiet street stands a very traditional Fuso inn, and the sun shines on it, casting a shadow on the ground. And there was only one person in front of such a hotel. This is not normal, after all, a hotel of this size needs enough traffic to stay in business.
"Is this the Tiger House Inn?" A young man in casual clothes and carrying a backpack asked in front of the Tiger House Hotel.
"Yes." After a while, a short uncle came out to respond. With his white clothes and the sound of a clog, he should be the maid at the Tiger House.
With a half-bowed body with dark skin, a wrinkled face and a circle of broken beard, this uncle has a sense of obscenity that all middle-aged low-level Fusang men have.
It seems that this uncle must have been working in the hotel for many years, nodding and bowing when he speaks, and having a polite enough temperament to guests has been fully integrated into his bones.
"But the hotel is no longer open to the public, and it has been chartered."
Listening to the uncle's words, the young man nodded and suddenly said, "Oh, that's so," but then, his expression became embarrassed, and he looked like a young man at a loss, and said, "Isn't it even an exorcist?" There was also a sense of inquiry in his tone.
The short uncle let out a surprised voice: "Eh~~"
"Are you an exorcist?" The short uncle naturally wouldn't believe Gu Bai easily, and he asked like this just to ask the young man to come up with some proofs.
"Yes, yes." Hearing the uncle's question, the young man immediately took out a bag of water from his backpack that was loaded with thick plastic, as well as a sterling silver bullet with delicate holy patterns that made people intoxicated, shining in the sun.
"Then I don't know where you are the exorcist?" The title immediately became respectful. But the dwarf uncle still seems to want to ask. A slightly moist towel in his hand was rubbed by him with both hands, as if he was a little nervous.
"This"
Looking at the young man's embarrassed expression, coupled with his identity, he immediately realized that he had asked too much. The identity of the young man should be left to those big people in the hotel to worry about.
The dwarf uncle turned around and said, "Then come in with me." ”
Flutter ——!
"Not really."
The slightly helpless words and the sound of bones breaking came out at the same time. The skull had been twisted into twisted flowers, and had been devoured one by one before the dwarf uncle's blood dripped to the ground.
Red and black pipes poured out of the young man's body, piercing into the lifeless body. In an instant, it was devoured by the youth. After a blur, the young man had changed from his original appearance to the appearance of an uncle.
I can't go in with you. Because I can't explain who I am.
A clean kill plus devour, the whole process takes just over two seconds.
Maybe the uncle already doubted his identity, maybe he didn't. But he still underestimated the danger of Gu Bai's person, as well as his assessment of the current situation of the Tiger House Hotel. But now that he's dead, it's hard to judge in vain.
They no longer have to deal with fever and miasma. There is also Fujido Saburota who has the power of the devil, and Gu Bai, who has controlled the devil.
The familiar arc hung up again, and the young man who became an uncle was obviously Gu Bai. After quickly extracting all his memories, he walked into the Tiger House Hotel, where he is now a worker in charge of tidying up the room and washing and changing clothes.
After taking the door and making sure that nothing was missing, he walked into the Tiger House Hotel. And at this time, a slightly majestic female voice stopped Gu Bai.
"Tanaka, what just happened?" It was a woman who still had charm. And Gu Bai, who had read the comics and extracted the memories of Jiro Tanaka, of course knew that the one in front of him was Katsuro Ryushi's mother, the hostess of this tiger house inn.
"Yes. A young man wanted to stay at the hotel, but I refused. Gu Bai replied respectfully, and at the same time naturally bowed down.
"Good." The beautiful woman replied and said, "Then Tanaka, you can continue your work." With that, she walked away with small steps.
The reaction just now was brought to him by Tanaka's memory, and only by following such a reaction can he best disguise himself.
Looking at the back of the hostess of the hotel leaving, a hint of coldness flashed in Gu Bai's eyes, who was aggrieved. As he bent down, he couldn't see the woman's expression, and he couldn't tell if the process he had just devoured had been discovered again. …,
Can you start a kill here?
No, although Gu Bai wasn't sure if she had seen her devouring process, she didn't dare to do it at this moment. In this case, all the active exorcists in the hotel will come out and get rid of themselves. And he also has to find a group of troublesome enemies for himself in this world.
Moreover, he has two tricks that can make him disappear into invisible tricks. So don't worry. All he wanted was to infiltrate the hotel non-violently, and then lurk quietly and wait for the time to come.
Gu Bai, who was thinking like this, had already moved in the direction of his work. I still have a cleaning job that I haven't done. If I hadn't happened to enter the gate, it wouldn't have been easy to enter.
Jiro Tanaka and Gu Bai are now one person, and the name switch between you, me and him has also become blurred. It seems that Gu Bai still needs some time to fully familiarize himself with the memory-devouring ability that the virus has brought him.
That night, Gu Bai, who had been tired for half a day, happened to enter a corridor in the hotel, where a fixed-line telephone was installed. He saw the hostess of the Tiger House listening to the phone call and responding at the same time.
"Huh? Is that so? Good yes. Then we are waiting for you. It's that again. ”
"Hello." "Yes."
Gu Bai walked over and said hello naturally, and the woman also responded. He already knew that the current mission had officially begun.
Tomorrow the expedition from Tokyo to Kyoto will arrive, and soon Saburota Fujita will also arrive. Gu Bai already had two or three plans for the snatching of eyes. But as for which one to use, it still needs to be carefully considered and the gains and losses to be weighed.
The moon has risen high, and all living things have gradually entered a state of rest. But the exorcists in Kyoto can't be quiet.
Because so far, they haven't even found a clue about the flute devil. At this juncture, they must mitigate any risk of catastrophe.
