Chapter 652, Death to the Crow
(Tomorrow erupts, ask for support-)
Fog is rare at Osaka International Airport, especially at 11 p.m., and the heavy fog at this airport can be described as rare. However, this time, Xiao Yan and they were fortunate enough to have an unimaginable foggy weather, and the fog was so thick that the Wangan G650 could barely land when it arrived at Osaka Airport. Even at a height of 500 meters, there was already a thick fog outside the porthole, which made Xiao Yan think that he had come to London.
The air port on the ground looks like a hazy shadow on the plane, and even the temporary emergency fog lights look dim here. Fortunately, the fog also brought some benefits, as most of the flights that were supposed to land at the international airport had been temporarily diverted, and all flights from Osaka were delayed, leaving the bayshore with a nice landing strip.
"We're really getting a good result."
Seeing that the plane had just stopped outside the porthole, a group of police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department quickly gathered in the fog, and several black cars were parked directly at the gangway. Xiao Yan said: "It seems that the reaction speed here is not slow. ”
Norviri responded: "It depends on what you can bring." ”
As soon as the two people got off the gangway, a middle-aged man wearing a gray woolen coat and a gray-blue striped tie immediately greeted him, and behind him were two officials of the Metropolitan Police Department whose faces were not very haode.
"Xiao Yanjun, it's a pleasure to see you here, my name is Miyamoto Shinyasu, and I'm here from the Tokyo office."
After shaking hands with Xiao Yan, the middle-aged man who looked very capable also nodded to Novoli on the other side, strangely. This time, Miyamoto Shinyasu didn't take the initiative to say anything. Seems to be very familiar with the presence of Novelli.
Xiao Yan didn't bother to think about these issues. He walked to the black sedan at the front under Miyamoto Shinyasu's greeting, and at the same time frowned slightly and asked, "Those people from the Metropolitan Police Department seem very unhappy about my arrival. ”
Miyamoto Shinyasu's face was slightly embarrassed, and he whispered in standard English, which is not common among Fuso people: "Regarding the situation of teardrops, the Metropolitan Police Department has not paid too much attention to it, and there are very few cases of teardrops here in Fuso, and the Metropolitan Police Department does not think there is any need to be too nervous." And, again, it's up to you to coordinate. For them, it's a shameless thing. ”
"Because I'm from Huaxia?"
For Xiao Yan's harsh questioning, Miyamoto Shinyasu was even more embarrassed. Different from the world, at present, in the Asian management committee, the Du family performs more dazzlingly, while among the several families in Fuso, only the Ito family performs better, and the performance of the other families is unstable. For decades, Fuso Shili, which once held a major position in the Asian Council, was dwindling in the number of secular awakenings. The voice in the Asian Council is also shrinking. At least 4 Fuso families were eventually removed from the management committee because they had no offspring to awaken. The former glory has been dimmed by the accidental awakening of the Shijie tree.
However, of course, it is impossible for secular human beings to know such an existence as the Management Committee of the Awakened, let alone the status of Fusang in the Management Committee of the Awakened, and the Fuso Metropolitan Police Department is still full of stubborn self-affirmation spirit, and these officials of the Metropolitan Police Department have always maintained suspicion and hostility towards a Chinese person who came to Fuso to solve the drug problem.
"It doesn't matter if you are from China or not, the important thing is that the teardrops did not appear on a large scale in Fusang. As of this morning, there have been only five cases of teardrops and suspected teardrops found in the entire Fuso archipelago. And all have been taken to the hospital and are under absolute surveillance. In this case, proliferation is a very difficult thing to do. ”
Xiao Yan sat in the car, turned his head to look at Miyamoto Shinyasu who was sitting in front, and asked, "What is the latest development regarding the fire situation in the office?" ”
Miyamoto Shinyasu shook his head slightly, the Miyamoto family was originally a well-known family in the Asian Awakened Management Committee, but time has passed, and no one in the family has been able to awaken for 4 consecutive generations, let alone enter the Awakened Management Committee, even if it is active in the rhizome of the Shijie Tree, it has reached a precarious point.
Only those who have entered the Awakened Management Committee know how attractive it is to be a Trialist and an Awakened compared to worldly rights. The Miyamoto family has always wanted to return to its former glory, even if it has become an unattainable dream. As the eldest son of the Miyamoto family, Miyamoto Shinyasu has been working in the office for more than ten years, and can be regarded as an old qualified staff, even within the office, he has considerable authority. But in front of Xiao Yan, he still can't pose the qualifications of an old man, unlike those who don't know the existence of the awakened, it is precisely because he knows the existence of the awakened that Miyamoto Shinyasu is more cautious.
Glancing at the driver beside him, Miyamoto Shinyasu turned to speak fluent French and introduced to Xiao Yan: "Mr. Kondo and Mr. Takemiya's office was not affected, the fire was burned from the storage room on the 17th floor at 5 o'clock in the morning, and then burned down the fax copy room. ”
Xiao Yan nodded slightly, and also asked in French: "Only the storage room and fax copy room were burned down?" Are there any other losses to the office? ”
Miyamoto Shinyasu's eyes were slightly surprised that Xiao Yan was able to communicate in French, but he quickly concealed this expression, and instead shook his head and said: "There is no latest damage report yet, and the work of the office has been seriously affected after the fire, so the post-disaster inspection work is still ongoing." ”
Xiao Yan didn't ask Miyamoto Shinyasu if he knew about the mutations that happened in the rhizome of the Fuso Shijie tree yesterday, theoretically the internal affairs of the awakened had nothing to do with the world, and he would not release any news about the world, so it was very likely that the office didn't know about those mutations. However, whether there will be any news circulating within these families in Fusang is also not something that Xiao Yan can control.
As for Akira Kondo and Takemiya Youxing's offices were not affected, it sounded a little sudden, but Xiao Yan didn't care. Frankly, he didn't expect to get any clues from the Tokyo office from the beginning, and the two men couldn't have been stupid enough to inject drugs in their own office. So there's only a lot of information that can be obtained there, if any. What Xiao Yan really wanted was a whole clue.
If there really is a drug that exists with teardrops above, then there must be a certain shili supplied to Akira Kondo. And this shili should be very aware of the current strength of the Asian Awakened Asian Management Committee, so he will definitely try his best to avoid direct confrontation with the Asian Management Committee. This is also one of the important reasons why the teardrops have not spread, if the teardrops spread, it will immediately evolve into a terrible disaster, and the awakened will inevitably get involved in it, and this shili will not be able to escape at that time.
Therefore, from the perspective that the teardrops have not spread at the moment, the opponent also maintains a certain degree of moderation, and they are also cautiously testing the bottom line of the Awoken Management Committee, and before that, they don't plan to go too far.
There's nothing wrong with the high price of teardrop preparation, and there's nothing wrong with being very hard to get, but Shili, who can get in touch with the trialist, really cares about the price of teardrop preparation? Xiao Yan had already denied this on the plane, and at that moment, he also understood that those old men of the Council of Elders didn't care so much about his opinion last night.
Shili, who is really capable of preparing teardrops, is not aiming for marketing at all, but a much bigger goal than that. It could be a country, or it could be the whole shijie. If there is a real relationship between the teardrop and the demon, the real goal of the shili will become even more terrifying.
As long as this was taken into account, Xiao Yan could conclude that it would definitely work. Because the other party will try their best to avoid a head-on conflict with the awakened before they have tested the bottom line of the awakened, or if they are not fully ready. They will do everything they can to erase the traces of their existence and prevent the Awakened from following the way, so they will inevitably take action. As long as the other party makes a move, then just like what Xiao Yan said to Novelli on the plane, clues will naturally emerge.
In this, the only thing that cannot be determined is how determined the opponent is. To be precise, the Awakened will not risk dealing with their opponents at the expense of worldly humans, but their opponents may do the same. If you think that your demise is imminent, will your opponent carry out a large-scale spread of teardrops at any cost? It may not be able to affect the whole world, but the destruction of a small country can have a very terrible impact on secular humanity.
It depends on how much information the opponent has, and it also depends on the strength of Xiao Yan's investigation, if the opponent finds more and more flaws, or finds other problems, then taking risks will be their most direct choice.
So far, Xiao Yan is in a fog, and the teardrops are indeed doubtful, but there is no evidence that the teardrops are directly related to the demons. All of this is just conjecture, and conjecture will not solve the problem.
However, for now, Xiao Yan's opponent is also in the fog, they don't know Xiao Yan's true intention, they don't know how much Xiao Yan has mastered, and they don't know what Xiao Yan's real purpose is. They simply perceive the danger intuitively and will then reduce the danger effort to the point where it can be controlled.
This reminded Xiao Yan of a Peking opera, "Three Forks", where two people fight to the death in the dark, and neither of them can see each other, so they can only find each other with a little clue and strive to kill the opponent.
The car leaving the airport drove quickly on the highway, and the cabin was quiet, whether it was Xiao Yan or Novelli, they were all thinking about their own things.
At that moment, several crows croaked loudly and flew through the thick fog above the vehicle. (To be continued......)
