The next day, at Nagano Prefecture Station, Xia Long walked to the entrance with a backpack.

There was nothing in the underground cavern, but Zero Daguba had indeed hid in Kurougaku, and he knew it when he saw the rose petals.

also knew that the Rose Woman did not tell the truth before, except for Chacchio, who repaired the belt, the Rose Woman also knew the location of Da Cuba.

"Didi!" Just as Xia Long was about to enter the station, the mobile phone on his body rang again, and Guishan's anxious voice came.

"Mr. Aaron? There was a murder here, and the deceased seemed to be an unidentified living entity, so I called a police officer, and he said let me come to you and have a look. ”

"Okay, I'll go over now."

After standing at the entrance for a while, Xia Long put away his phone and turned to leave the station.

……

In Konabe, Nagano Prefecture, a police car drove through the rain on the highway in the wilderness of the mountains.

"Boom!" With bursts of thunder and torrential rain, Kameyama had to be careful.

"Strange, didn't the weather station say it was sunny in the morning?"

Kameyama complained as he explained to Natsu Ryu next to him, "As for the brutal murder yesterday, it seems that it happened shortly after we went to the Kuroudake Ruins, and those who were killed had tattoos on those who were not identified as living beings, and now it looks like a massacre. ”

Seeing that Xia Long didn't speak, Kameyama said in a panic: "I said Mr. Ah Long, could it be done by Zero?" Isn't it confirmed that living beings can kill each other? ”

"Probably."

After rushing to an abandoned suburban factory, Xia Long rushed into the factory with Guishan in the torrential rain.

All sorts of clutter are piled up inside the factory, and there is a lot of space inside, which looks like a good place to hide.

"It's inside."

After greeting the police officer standing guard, Guishan took a flashlight to show Xia Long, and after a while, he smelled a choking smell, the smell of blood mixed with the stench, and there were flies around.

"Boom!" After a burst of thunder and lightning, the light from the skylight reflected a bright red.

Xia Long walked across the ground covered in splattered blood, and his eyes fell on the wall next to him, and he found that there was a mark similar to the empty self logo left on it with blood, except that the empty self symbol only had two horns, and the one in front of him had four horns.

"This is very similar to the text on the sarcophagus of the ruins," Kameyama began, "I'll have to pick up a few experts in this area later, I don't know if there will be any clues." ”

"Are you talking about the experts?"

"Well, Officer Ichijo recommended Miss Sakurako Sakurado of Jonan University to me, and there is also an archaeological researcher at Shinano University here in Nagano Prefecture."

Kameyama responded and asked, "How is it?" Did you find anything? ”

"Zero should have done the right thing."

……

In the afternoon, Natsuryu met Sakurako Sakuratsu, who had been invited to Nagano, along with Kanako Suyama, a researcher at Shinano University and a friend of Sakurako Sakurado.

"Was Professor Natsume originally at this school?"

"Yes, the Kuroudake Ruins were a project of Shinano University at the time, but I didn't expect that to happen."

Suyama Katsuko was silent for a while and continued: "The things unearthed from the ruins are all stored in the basement of the university research institute, and those stone tablets and sarcophagus fragments are also there, but most of them have not been repaired yet, if you are interested, I can take you there." ”

"No, Miss Sakurako can go, and if you find any useful information, just tell me," Xia Long was not interested in archaeological research, "I still have to go back to Tokyo." ”

He was supposed to go back in the morning, but he was only delayed by the events on Nagano's side, and even though it had been determined that Zero was killing his people for unknown reasons, there was no need for him to stay in Nagano, and staying here would not help much.

"Regarding the blood word that Zero left at the scene of the murder," Sakurako said hesitantly when she saw that Natsuryu was leaving, "After seeing that word, I remembered Number 4 and Number B6. ”

"Huh?" Xia Long looked at Sakurako Sakurado suspiciously.

"Actually, I've been thinking just now, the word left by Zero seems to have four horns, I don't know if it will have anything to do with B6."

Xia Long smiled: "It may have some meaning, but I don't know much about this thing, so I'll trouble you about research."

In the evening, Xia Long arrived in Tokyo by Shinkansen, and the news of Zero's appearance had not yet spread, and the news reports in Tokyo were full of various news about the empty self.

Xia Long didn't ask a question about the situation here, but he glanced at the newspaper news at the station and found that it was all a condemnation of the empty me.

"Asahi Shimbun: Explosion of unidentified lifeform causes heavy damage......"

"According to the investigation, the damage area is about 3 kilometers, and there are no casualties reported so far, but the railway near the site has been damaged, and it will take several days to repair, and the impact is expected to affect more than 100,000 people, and the subsequent damage is being counted......

"Police believe No. 4 is now out of control ......"

Xia Long stood in front of an advertising screen in front of the station, muttering at the evening news above: "What's wrong?" ”

Confused, Xia Long hurriedly called Polei Restaurant, and it was the boss who answered the phone.

"Is the fifth generation here?"

"Mr. Aaron." Goyo took the phone, his voice sounding a little lost.

"I just returned to Tokyo," Xia Long asked, "I've seen all the news, what the hell is going on?" ”

"When I fought with No. 39 yesterday, the explosion had a great impact, and I had already chosen to use the golden power in the suburbs, but I didn't expect it to be so serious," Wudai said silently, "However, without the red sky, I can't beat the No. 39 ...... with the golden power."

"I'm not asking this," Charon paused and interrupted, "what's the attitude of the police?" Does it matter what you want now? ”

"I'm fine, now there's only one police officer who knows that I'm empty, and there will be no problem."

"What did Officer Ichijo say?"

"He said it's none of my business, so I don't want to pay too much attention to it."

……

On the roof of a building in Tokyo, the Rose Girl stood on the rooftop in the evening breeze, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind her, and Daguba, dressed in white, walked slowly with a faint halo on her body.

"You're going to kill those who don't have enough strength, right?" The Rose Girl said lightly, "How did you come to Tokyo?" I'll keep the dark game going. ”

"There's no need to do it anymore," said the young man in white with a harmless smile on his face, "because the ultimate darkness is about to begin." ”

The Rose Woman's face remained unchanged: "You're going to kill them?" ”

At five o'clock in the morning, one had just arrived to search for a lesson, so he hurriedly called Xia Long.

"There is new news about the previous zero, not only Nagano, but also Ibaraki, Yamagyo, Aichi and other prefectures have found a strange text, but there is one thing that is very strange."

"Strange?" At the Porepore restaurant, Xia Long and Goyo answer a phone call together.

"Yes," Ichijo said, looking at a fax document, "You've been to the scene in Nagano Prefecture, and you've seen a lot of blood, right, but there is no or very little blood elsewhere, and it seems that the scene was a fire of unknown origin that burned everyone to death." ”

"Mr. Ichijo!" At this time, a police officer hurriedly shouted at the bar, "There is a situation again!" ”

"I see." One nodded and said into the phone, "I have something to go out, and I'll get in touch later." ”

"Okay."

Xia Long hung up the phone in response, and the five generations next to him were curious: "Is it a matter of Zero?" What's wrong? ”

"Zero doesn't know why, it seems like he's starting to slaughter his own people."

"But didn't Zero resurrect his companion himself? Why do you want to kill them now? ”

The five generations said confusedly: "And why now?" What the hell does that Zero want to do? ”

Xia Long shook his head: "I don't know, but it's not a bad thing to continue, if we can kill the unidentified lifeforms here in Tokyo, it will be much easier for us." ”

"Here in Tokyo, is that the Ge Group?" Goyo agreed, "It would be nice if Zero killed those guys, but it shouldn't be possible. ”

"Hmm." Xia Long silently clenched his fists.

For some reason, he sensed that Zero had started slaughtering his kind, perhaps something to do with his transformation into the Ultimate Void Self.
