92. Alone in the world 03
The contractor is the existence that appeared along with the "Gate of Hell" in Tokyo and the "Gate of Heaven" in South America. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ infoSince their appearance, humanity has been cut off from the sky, and satellites launched into outer space have lost contact or had accidents, and none of them have succeeded so far. And the starry sky above human heads has become a false astrological phenomenon. Corresponding to a contractor, when their "ability" is activated, the star will move.
'The contractor has no feelings', the contractor only thinks in a rational way, is disgusted by all sides of the human race, but is active in the shadows because of his unique "ability".
"Really? In a world like this, you can put down the mask that is useless, right? Mora shrugged, exploring the world as she explored.
"Perhaps."
Because of the appearance of the "Hell Gate", a large area of Tokyo in Japan was reduced to rubble. In order to cover up the "truth", the government erected its high walls to keep the view of the ruins out of the eyes of ordinary people, and the United Nations set up a special organization "Pandora" to study matters related to the gates of hell. The hell gate is just a name, in fact there was a large explosion of unknown cause in the local area, and the truth is still hidden under the water level.
But it had nothing to do with Heart Leaf, what she cared about was "Fragments of Meteors". According to her memories and Mora's investigation, this strange substance is capable of enhancing the contractor's abilities. The trouble is also here, since there is no task and the system does not give her a normal identity, now she is only a stowaway. Although with her strength, there should not be a single enemy in this world... But if it is hindered by the gods of this world, things will become more troublesome.
"Well, on this point, the god of this world greeted me just now," Mora knew what Kokonoha was thinking, so he reminded, "She gave you the identity of a "contractor", which means that you will use all the abilities you have in the same way as the contractor, but correspondingly, there will also be a "price", the strange ability of this world... Or is it a magician? Thinking rationally or something... Does that mean that all the contractors here are just like you? β
"What do you think? Is there a difference between human beings who have abandoned their feelings and human beings who insist on reason, or is there no difference? β
"It's all the same in my eyes, just human."
Mora snorted coldly. This demon god's attitude towards humans is the same as ever, and she firmly believes, or understands very well, that when people can fight against gods, humans are no longer humans. The 'humans' who can do this are fundamentally different from other individuals - beyond the limits of being human, and can only be reached by those who are determined and talented.
"Humans are wonderful, too, I think."
Kokoba narrowed her eyes slightly, she was dangling in Tokyo, it looked like the economy was in a very serious depression, like a city during the bubble economy, and every corner was full of crime.
And the three of Xinye are very eye-catching. Morako didn't bother to walk on her own, so she let Scarlet Leaf hold her and follow behind Heart Leaf. His eyes are blank, his expression is dull, and he looks like a puppet's scarlet leaf, faithfully following the pace of his heart. Soon, the three of them arrived at Kokonoha's destination.
Bar.
"I said, what are you doing here?"
"Drink."
Pushing open the door of the narrow bar, a few people in front of the bar were sparsely pulled, and when they saw the appearance of the three people, one of the blonde men raised their eyebrows. The young Oriental man who looked good-eyed at the bar bar paused for a moment, and then said in a weak voice:
"That's... Minors are not allowed here..."
"Red card whiskey, on the rocks," Kokonoha sat down to herself without glancing at him, "give her a glass of milk." β
"Huh? I? Mora sat down next to Heart Leaf in her arms, "I want coffee, milk is some." β
"We don't have milk here... Coffee is available. The young man smiled wryly and turned his back to the past as he prepared his drink.
Kokoba doesn't look like a minor, and his words and deeds also give people a sense of mechanization. There are no superfluous movements, and her concise and clear words make her seem more like someone who is engaged in research or the military. She's not pretending to be in any way, and she's just a bit of an odd guy in the eyes of ordinary people.
β... You look unhappy," said the blonde man a few seats away, "or are you a 'contractor' as conspiracy theorists say?" β
"That's not right, I'm not technically 'that kind of thing.'"
Picking up the wine glass that the bartender had placed in front of her, Kokonoha had a slightly different expression on her face. She took a sip of whiskey, the strong taste stimulated her nerves, and she had reached the bottom of the wine glass with only one sip, she exhaled, and a smile of enjoyment appeared on her face for the first time in a long time, she shook the little wine and ice cubes left in the wine glass, and said:
"It's not a good sign that the MI6 guys are drinking here, and civilians like me don't want to see chaos here."
"Hmph... It seems that being too famous is not a good thing... Could it be that they came to me on a special trip? β
The blonde man kept a smile on his face, and the contractor's clumsy disguise could be seen through by ordinary people at a glance.
"No, I just came to meet the guy who always wanted to see the real person, and I was a little surprised... I think there should be such feelings. β
After saying that, Kokoba stood up and took out a bill from her pocket, 10,000 yen, and what was left over from the previous world, and she casually threw the money on the bar.
"Don't look for it, let's go, Scarlet."
The dark-haired girl with a blank face stood up and followed her away with her head slightly bowed.
"So why the hell did you come to this place?" Mora glanced at the coffee served by the bartender with a little nostalgia.
"Didn't I say that?"
A slight smile.
"Meet the guy who wants to see a real person."
"The blonde?" Mora hugged Scarlet's neck, "It doesn't look like a good thing... That smiley face is as stupid as the look on your face when I met you. β
"No, it's the bartender." The heart lobe is corrected to.
"Huh? Isn't that just an ordinary person? Don't lie to me. β
Anyway, let's find a way to get an ID first. Kokoba glanced back at the bar, she had already noticed that the bartender had been secretly watching her and the blonde man. And he may be a contractor... He already knew that, and in this way, the "organization" would also know about itself. An unknown contractor with a doll-like girl is really an ideal way to reveal your identity.
The purpose of the heart leaf has been achieved.
In the bar, the blonde man was also about to leave, he pushed open the door and picked up his phone.
"I am about 170cm tall and am an Oriental woman. 20 years old, long black hair, with a similar appearance "DOLL" and a girl with black hair about 10 years old, the contractor has obvious symptoms, and it may be a person from a hostile force... Self-proclaimed civilians? β
"Yes, an Oriental woman with a height of about 170 looks like she is about 20 years old, which is very young. Apparel... A black coat with a "DOLL" that looks very similar to hers. If you find the relevant information, please contact me as soon as possible. β
What a chaotic city, this hellish place.
ββββ
When Tsuru returned to the organization, he looked impatient and took off his glasses, closed his eyes and nestled in the couch. Realizing that he really lost to this heart leaf this time, he may be a little upset, the queen and the others followed back to the organization, she sat back on the "throne", yawning, and the black-haired girl half-crouched next to the throne, talking to her.
"Unwilling?" Anderson brings a cup of coffee.
β... No, I'm just admiring my own stupidity. I thought it was a bad decision to think that it was possible for this heart leaf to join our organization, and this wrong decision cost us a great deal in the first place..."
"Ten Nights," the queen snapped open her eyes, "I approve of your actions, and I approve of them despite my sister's constant opposition, and it was a mistake in my decision. β
β... Be. He nodded indifferently, closed his eyes, and opened the God Chaser system.
When Crane Shiye opened the system, he saw a signed email, and the time of sending was... A few hours ago, that is, in the mission of the previous world. The sender is... This heart leaf. He was stunned for a moment, and then, an imperceptible smile rose into the corners of his mouth.
"Funny guy."
His face, which had been cold, finally appeared with what could be called an expressionβa smile, and he immediately opened the email.
"Someday, you'll understand."
The smile on his face was even worse.
"Alone in the Struggle"
Still smiling.
"Helplessness in isolation"
"And then you also feel that thinking is worthless... It's in vain."
"But"
"You're not going to let that stop you."
"Hungry for victory!"
Can I see this as a war letter? Tsuru turned off the system and closed his eyes in the night. Hungry for victory? It's been a long time since he's felt this way, he wants to win so much, he really wants to win... Is this what the so-called adversary is? What do you think... This heart leaf? Do you still feel like I'm your opponent?
All right... If that's what you're for, then I'll be with you to the end.
He came to the queen and got down on one knee, and the queen opened her eyes slightly and sighed.
"Queen, I have a petition for something."
"Say it."
"I want to go it alone."
