Chapter 207: South Town
The magazine featured a recent xenofight tournament in the East, in which two young talented martial artists attracted a lot of attention.
One of the genius martial artists is called Kyo Kusanagi, and the magazine has some brief introductions to this talented martial artist: his father is the famous martial artist Kusanagi Shibishu, and he is a student himself.
Another genius martial artist is called Nikaido Komaru, who is the eldest young master of the Nikaido Group, and his own conditions are extremely good, and he has engaged in many professions such as modeling for his interest. Family background, appearance, and even martial arts skills are all top-notch, and such a person will naturally attract more attention.
Compared with these two talented martial artists, Goro Daimon, who once won an Olympic gold medal, did not have much space, but just introduced a few words very simply...... Sure enough, it's a world of faces.
From these contents, Louie knew that he was in 1993, and the magazine about xenofighting tournaments had a date on it.
At the same time, from these contents, he also determined that he was in the official plot, and the Kusanagi Kyo here was just a descendant of a martial arts family, a high school student with poor grades (10,000 years repeater), and there were no huge cities at home, groups of retainers and servants, etc.
Nikaido Komaru is a wealthy son, and Goro Daimon is a well-known athlete and judoka, and neither of them is a retainer of the Kusanagi family.
Speaking of which, in the port manga, the red pill who is bent on defeating Kusanagi Kyo is written as Kusanagi Kyo's servant general, if the red pill can break the plane barrier and go to the real world, it will definitely make that guy unable to take care of himself.
Louie also learns that he is located in the famous South Town of the United States, a fictional city that is the setting of many stories: the legend of the hungry wolf, the fist of the dragon and tiger, and so on.
In the official setting, Nanzhen was able to gather all kinds of martial artists to settle down because it was the place where the most martial arts competitions were held, and the various competitions had high prize money, so martial artists were naturally willing to come here to make a living.
The most typical example is Joan (kg, officially translated as Joan), who came to Nanzhen to treat her brother's illness and then became involved in a series of events.
In addition, for example, Ryo Sakazaki, the protagonist of Fist of the Dragon and Tiger, and Terry, the protagonist of the Legend of the Hungry Wolf, both live in this place in Nanzhen.
Louie was thrown directly in this place, presumably to facilitate his mission - if he wanted to quickly improve his hand-to-hand fighting ability in this world, Southtown was undoubtedly the most suitable place to exercise.
In particular, the famous Extreme Flow Karate Gym is located in this place, and if Louis is interested, he can go and communicate with Ryo Sakazaki, the current owner of the Extreme Stream.
Or go to Terry, the protagonist of another work, and maybe Louis will be able to learn the tricks of Baji Zhengquan from Terry?
"It's a shame...... If I'm in Japan, can I go and meet the heir who doesn't know the flow of fire?"
But counting the time, now Shiranui Dance should have become a couple with Andy. Unless he came earlier, it would be hard to start.
Louie, who was wandering the streets, sorted through all kinds of information and materials, and thought about how he should complete this mission.
According to the fighting magazine, it is now 1993, so the maximum time limit for him to complete the mission is two years - although Lucar was defeated in the tournament in '94 and used a self-detonation device to try to die with many martial artists, he didn't kill a single person in the end, including himself, in that explosion, and returned again in '95.
In other words, at the latest in 95, Louis still has a chance to face Lucar.
Two years is still a relatively tight time, and if he wants to complete the task quickly, it will have to be in 94...... That is, to beat Lucar next year.
"What should I do? Join the Limit Stream?"
After thinking for a while, he rejected this option, Louie was not a rookie who had not even stepped into the door of martial arts, he had studied martial arts, and had a wealth of combat experience, he knew all the essentials of hand-to-hand combat, but he lacked practical experience.
In this case, there is no need for him to join a certain sect to learn from scratch - even if the extreme stream has a vitality girl like Yuri Sakazaki.
After strolling around for a while, Louis came across a bar.
It wasn't surprising to see bars in town, and it was the tall woman with short blond hair and men's clothes that caught his eye.
He wandered around for a long time, and finally met a character in the plot, which was to move to South Town specifically to treat his younger brother, and as a result, Joan, who was involved in a series of events and is currently a martial artist and bar operator.
Just when Louie was about to go into the bar to sit and listen to some gossip about Nanzhen now, the heroic blonde woman stopped Louie directly: "Sorry, we haven't opened for business yet." ”
"Sorry, didn't notice. Following Joan's direction, Louis saw the hours of operation hanging next to the gate. Actually, it was useless for him to see it, he hadn't figured out what time it was: "What time is it, please? The time on my watch is not very accurate." ”
Joan didn't suspect anything, and directly told Louie the time, and after watching Louie adjust the time on the watch (the multi-function bracelet was changed), she didn't think much about it.
After adjusting the time, Louie found that it was still morning, and Joan's bar was open from the afternoon to midnight.
Continuing to wander the streets, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually increased, and Louie also saw that many of them had good fighting qualities, and they should be martial artists who had lived in Southtown for many years.
Just as Louis was wandering around, he suddenly felt that someone was paying too much attention to him.
It's like an ordinary kind of looking at him a few times, it doesn't alert him, that's a normal scrutiny. Especially in this part of Southtown, it's not uncommon for Louie's image to attract the attention of some martial artists.
This time the gaze was different, and Louis could feel that the man's gaze was always locked on him, and although he would disappear for a moment from time to time, he would soon find him again.
"Targeted?"
Louis tried to change the direction of travel a few times, taking advantage of the change of perspective between turns and some glass reflections, but failed to see any suspicious figures, which proved that the other party had quite strong tracking and anti-tracking skills.
If you are an ordinary person, you may feel that you are thinking too much or are in big trouble, but Louie is different, he is a person who has hanging!
Unable to find the other party with his anti-tracking skills, Louie directly used Force Induction, and soon found the person who had been following him not far behind.
"Is this a windfall?"
After going back and forth for a while, and knowing some of the situation in the neighborhood, Louis soon walked into a dead end, he believed that the other party must know what was going on here, and he didn't know if he would follow?
If you keep up, it means that the other party is willing to talk to you, and if you don't follow and turn away, you will understand that you have been found and quickly flash - this also seems to mean that the other party wants to be unfavorable to you.
"I haven't offended this ......"
He couldn't figure out why this person followed him, but fortunately the other party also wanted to talk to him, and not long after Louie turned into a dead end, a woman with short blond hair and a green leather jacket walked in.
Walking to the opposite side of Louie, he stood against the wall with Louie, looked up and down with his arms crossed, and said, "Worthy of the famous hunter Hunter, he was able to find me." ”
"You are also very powerful, I can't find you out directly, so I have to choose this way to ask you to show up. Louis looked at the other party very curiously, he was no longer surprised by the situation of this person who could know himself, it was all caused by the identity card. It seems that in this world his identity is still a bounty hunter - or a well-known bounty hunter: "Why are you following me?"
"I'm just curious if the sudden appearance of the famous Louis Hunter in Southtown is going to stir up a bloody storm?" the blonde woman always crossed her arms, but Louie could see that her arms were on alert at any moment, and she could see that she was very wary of herself.
"I'm just curious about this place, come and see, you're thinking too much. ”
"Oh?" the other party obviously did not believe Louie's statement: "Isn't there a new prey?"
"......" Louis did not answer the question, he did have a new prey, and the target was Lucar, but why did he say it honestly? So he asked the other party rhetorically: "What about you? Who is the famous Melancholy Mary targeting this time?"
The woman with beautiful blonde hair in front of her is Mary, who has appeared many times in the Legend of the Hungry Wolf and the King of Fighters series, Blue Marie is actually her code name, which means Melancholy Mary, who started after losing her lover and family one after another, and her real name is Mary Ryan.
She once set up a private detective agency to investigate the death of her father and lover, and in addition to investigating the matter, she also took on some work to earn living expenses - in a sense, she and Louie were peers.
"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you?"
When Mary answered Louie's question, she suddenly understood that this was also the other party's answer to her question, and Mary was a little depressed after reacting, but Louie did not need to disclose her work goals to her.
After a few spins in her head, Mary came up with a better excuse: "Actually, I want to make sure with you whether we are aiming at the same goal and whether we will become competitors." ”
"That's a good reason...... Louis raised his hand and pointed his index finger at Mary, "But I can only tell you that my target is not your friend Terry, and you should be able to rest assured." ”
"......" Mary's hands with her arms almost put on a defensive posture, she didn't expect her thoughts to be seen through by the other party at once, and Louis actually knows his interpersonal relationships so well?
"Are you coming for me?"
