Chapter 314: Darkness and Light, Do You Dare to Take Off Your Mask?

Upper Kyoto City Area,

Adjudicator Division in the Black Building.

"Sky Tree Fireworks Festival?"

A woman's slightly cold voice sounded slowly in the meeting room on the third floor of the Adjudication Division, facing the pure white flower garden in front of the building, where you could enjoy the afternoon sun.

The woman looks to be in her thirties, her tall figure of 190 is very eye-catching, her long black hair hangs back behind her, her forehead is smooth and flat, and her slender and delicate almond eyes are dark blue eyes, revealing a faint sense of alienation and indifference from time to time.

The fact that she was able to appear in this room, which was accessible only to a small number of people, was enough to illustrate the status and identity of a woman in the headquarters building of the Adjudication Division.

The only two SSS adjulators of the adjudication division.

The third ruling makes.

Empress Doroshi. Alita.

She withdrew her gaze from the white flower garden outside the window, and turned her head to look at the man not far away who had a mixture of madness and murderous aura at the corners of his mouth.

The second ruling made Psoe. Wiseman, the man rumored to be known as the Demon Knife, is also the only person in the history of the Adjudication Division to sit in the high position of the Second Adjudication Envoy... Mankind.

The man was playing with a brass metal coin engraved with the griffon's coat of arms.

Or "collectibles".

In fact, every time he completes the "harvest", he takes something from the target as a souvenir. Alita doesn't have much of a bad feeling about men.

"The country will not be a country, I didn't expect that the people of that small country would still have this leisure at this time, do you want their country to go to the sky together in the fireworks?" She spoke lightly, some dark humor coming out of her mouth without much of a joke.

"I don't know where you got the news, though." The second ruling made the 'Demon Knife' Pusso. Wiseman tilted his head a little cynically and looked at Doroshi. Alita glanced at it and said with a chuckle, "But I believe that the dignified 'empress' will definitely not play some tricks to steal people's favor, and such a small country that is not worth mentioning and about to perish is not worthy of your identity." ”

Empress Doroshi. Alita looked at Puso lightly. Wiseman, "But if I'm not mistaken, the old man has never assigned the rebellion in Wano Country to anyone in the Inquisition Division..."

"But the whole department of adjudication should know..."

The second ruling made Psoe. Wiseman glanced at the woman lightly, his eyelids drooped slightly, and said, "There is the 'fruit' I need to harvest, and no one wants to destroy the 'joy' of a person's harvest, right?" Unless he wants to see that joy turn into 'anger'. ”

"Fruit?"

Empress Doroshi. Alita frowned, she naturally knew that what the man in front of her was talking about could not be the 'Fruit of Ability' circulating on the black market outside, and then said with some understanding, "It seems that who you are eyeing again, it won't be the guy who made a lot of trouble in Wano Country but didn't dare to take off his mask." ”

"You don't need to know that."

The second ruling made Psoe. Wiseman glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, and said in a tone full of regret, "It's a pity that Shangjing has been an eventful time recently, and many people are starting to get ready to move before the next World Conference, so I don't have the opportunity to observe the growth of the 'fruit' up close." ”

"Don't worry, a person who hides behind a mask and hides his head and tail doesn't appeal to me at all."

Empress Doroshi. Alita shook her head and said, "I didn't come to you for this boring thing... Oh, I'm sorry if I offended you. ”

The second ruling made Psoe. Wiseman's gaze swept over Empress Doroshi. Alita's cold and unapologetic face suddenly said in a somewhat flirtatious tone, "Then you came to me... It won't be a pure S-love relationship with me that goes beyond friendship but is definitely not love, right? I'm not very resistant to 'workplace love', but I'm sorry you're not my type, and I'm sorry if it offends you. ”

"Long story short."

Empress Doroshi. Alita raised her chin slightly, ended the brief temptation between each other, and said lightly, "The third level [Boundary Gate] has appeared in the country of Wano, then there is a high probability that the hell world behind that door will appear 'Styx', if you solve the 'instability factor' of the country of Wano, the country of Wano after the destruction will definitely be taken over by the people below you."

In order to prevent unnecessary conflicts in the future, I would like to say hello to you in advance, if that country after the destruction has a chance to give birth to a higher-level fourth-level border gate, I will enter it once. ”

"Oh?" The second ruling made Psoe. Wiseman raised an eyebrow, "Proud as an empress, is she actually interested in something like 'Styx' that useless old fellows covet?" ”

"You don't have to worry about this." Empress Doroshi. Alita was noncommittal.

The second ruling made Psoe. Wiseman was not angry, the corners of his mouth curled slightly and said with a smile, "I thought that the 'straight to the point' exchange, the conditions must always be put forward together with the return, am I shallow?" ”

"The reward is that I'll help you take on the pressure that is coming." Empress Doroshi. Alita squinted at the second ruling made Pso. Wiseman, said in a light tone, "Those people who live in the clouds have always paid attention to their faces, but the guy in Wano Country who is hiding behind the mask has slapped their faces hard these times, you don't think those people will really give up and let the other party be toyed with by you, right?" ”

"Oh? It's really incomprehensible to the thinking of your celestial nobles. "The second ruling made Pso. Wiseman said with a smirk, "In a way, I reaped the joy of the harvest and avenged them, shouldn't they thank me?" ”

"Of course I think so."

Empress Doroshi. Alita looked at the other party calmly, "But the celestial nobles of the Nine Families don't think so, maybe in the eyes of some people, the Ruling Division is just a loyal dog, but this loyal dog has become too large over the years, and even so large that it has violated the faces of many owners, you should know this, otherwise you wouldn't have hidden the news so secretly." ”

"The old guys of the Nine Heavenly and Human Families have entered the Boundary Gate, and two cycles have passed, and it is no surprise that they have all found the Styx, which means that they can get closer to the peak of the Ninth Order when they can step into the tomb with half a foot, and after returning to Shangjing, their status in the family will surely rise, if the Boundary Gate appears again in the Sky Tree, do you think they will give up the Boundary Gate anchor point in their hands? If you're alone, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat that part of Wano Country. ”

Empress Doroshi. After Alita said this, she glanced at the unknown flowers planted in the dazzling white flower garden outside, and walked to the door of the conference room with her high heels.

When she was about to go out, she paused and said, "There is still plenty of time, you can think about it, and you can enjoy the fireworks in front of the sky in the country of Wano together." ”

Behind him, the second ruling made Puso. Wiseman stared at Empress Doroshi. Alita's departing back, the smile on the corner of her mouth gradually turned into a twisted madness and murderous aura.

He bowed his head and muttered, "No one can stop my desire for you.... Don't let me down... I's... The green 'little apple'. ”

.......

Some people can decide the end of a country in a few words, but for the ordinary people who actually live in this country, there is not much of a sense of misery.

In fact, since the Wano Country government and the Metropolitan Police Department hired the [Dawn of Scarlet] hunters to jointly enforce the law in New Tokyo, and the round of Mo crazy "brushing" before Higashinohara entered the border gate...

No, it should be done justice.

Over the next few days, crime rates dropped markedly across the 23rd ward of New Tokyo.

Many shopping malls and amusement parks have also reopened, and the people of Wano Country have once again felt a rare sense of peace and tranquility.

Previously... The evacuation of the ruling division, the death of the new prime minister, and the serial terrorist incidents that occurred after the appearance of various pirates in the city of New Tokyo... Everything is as if it were from the last century.

Fuji Channel, a funny variety show called "Dawu Talk Show".

"I'll just say... There is no need for everyone to worry about the sky, everyone should eat and drink with a good heart.... The sky is falling, and there are tall men on top. ”

As he spoke, the comedian Tony Daigo on the stage put his hand on the pergola and glanced at the few special guests in the front row, "Well, there shouldn't be anything to do with the few people here." ”

Several artists in the guest seat suddenly laughed and leaned back and forth.

One of the guests couldn't help but say, "You're embarrassed to say that when all the nightclubs in the city were closed in the first few days, you held my arm and said, 'It's over, it's all over', and now you're starting to be optimistic again?" ”

"Uh... This time and that time. ”

Tony Daigo smiled and said, "Didn't you receive a message from the city two days ago? Even the Sky Tree has reopened, and the fireworks festival will be held at the Sky Tree this evening, which shows that our government is confident in the future of Wano Country. ”

"So Tony-kun sees the wind and makes the rudder?"

"Huh? No, no, no, it's too much to see the wind and rudder. ”

"What's that?"

"At best, I'm a gentleman who knows the times (laughs)"

"Is that okay?"

"Of course, hey, hey... Are you jealous that I just got a girlfriend and targeted me, you kid is not young, hurry up and find a girlfriend to take her to the Sky Tree to watch the fireworks, oh I almost forgot, the fireworks festival is in the afternoon, and it should be too late now. ”

"Huh? Can Tony-kun be personally attacked? ”

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, anyway, I took my girlfriend to the Sky Tree to watch the fireworks after recording the show today, will you bring your girlfriend with you?"

"You can't get over the 'girlfriend' stalk, right? Is it great to have a girlfriend? ”

"Judging from the current singleton rate of our Wano Country, it seems to be quite remarkable, XX-kun, you must not know what it is like to go to the Sky Tree with your girlfriend to watch the fireworks, right?"

"Tony-kun, you won't be paying to advertise the Sky Tree's fireworks festival, right?"

"Huh? Is it so obvious? (Laughter)"

"Haha, okay, anyway, yesterday's haze has passed, and we have every reason to believe that Wano Country's tomorrow will be better."

"The darkness will be far away, and the light will be ours."

“......”

Edogawa Ward, in the Aragaki apartment.

On the TV next to it, Fuji TV's variety talk show was playing, and the host of the funny show inexplicably began to lyrical, which made people feel a little bored.

Today, March 27th, is about to usher in April, which means that the annual spring break will soon be over.

April is your lie.

Sitting on the tatami mat in the rented room, supporting the small square table with his arms in his hands, his chin in his hand, tilting his head, looking at Nishimaru Miri through the rain marks on the glass, looking at the overcast sky outside the sky, he felt as if he had been "deceived".

The eldest brother said a week ago that he would go out to do something, and she was very worried when she went out, so she asked the other party to send a message back every day to report her safety.

But in addition to the fact that afternoon a week ago, she received a message on her phone that said, "Don't read peace."

For the next few days, it was like a stone in the sea, and she never heard from her again.

Oh, by the way, when I got up a few mornings ago, the mobile phones of few people in Nishimaru Miri's address book vibrate, making her excited when she woke up and saw an unread message.

As a result, I didn't expect that after turning on the phone, it was actually a public message from the municipal department...

It is said that the Sky Tree, which has been closed for more than two months, will reopen tomorrow afternoon.

"Miri-chan,"

Next to the kitchen desk in the room, Kolotia, who was rolling shrimp and hairtail into nori rice balls, said softly, "I made some bento, so you can eat a little if you're hungry while watching TV in the afternoon." ”

Nishimaru Miri looked up at Kolotia a little coywardly, and turned over weakly, "But the big brother is not here, and I don't have the energy to watch any TV." ”

Kolotia saw that Nishimaru Miri, a little Lori who is always full of vitality on weekdays, rarely showed this "salted fish" appearance, which made people a little powerless to complain.

Kolotia smiled, she was still a child, and couldn't help but say gently, "Don't be depressed, Higashino-kun just went out to run errands, and I believe that Higashino-kun also wants to see a rejuvenated Miri-chan when he comes back." ”

"Really?"

Nishimaru asked with a blink.

"Yes." Kolotia nodded, "Didn't the new Tokyo station broadcast the fireworks festival of the Sky Tree live in the afternoon?" It should be quite lively, you can turn on the TV and watch it. ”

She had long heard that Wano Country would hold a grand fireworks festival before all kinds of major events, but she had never seen it for so long.

Nishimaru immediately got up energetically, rushed over and grabbed Kolotia's shirt and shook it:

"Auntie, do you want us to go to the Sky Tree site together, anyway, the city has been safe recently, I see that many places have started to open, and there are many people on the street."

Listening to Nishimaru Miri's words, Kolotia, who had a bad experience, shook her head seriously, rubbed Nishimaru Miri's little head, and said softly:

"It's not okay there, Higashino-kun also seriously told us to be at home when he left, if you go out, let's wait for the next time with Higashino-kun."

Although Kolotia doesn't know Higashinohara's other identity, after experiencing the scene on the train, Higashinohara is also a "courageous, capable, and responsible" young man in her heart, and she is inexplicably more dependent and trusting psychologically.

Nishimaru Miri heard that Kolotia had moved out of Higashino, and immediately stopped talking, returned to the tatami mat and sat down obediently, looked at the time on the phone, covered his mouth and exclaimed, "Ah! The Sky Tree fireworks festival is about to begin. ”

As she spoke, she quickly bent down on the small square table and got the remote control on the tatami mat, changing the TV from Fuji TV's funny variety show to New Tokyo TV.

The picture on the TV screen is turned!

As soon as he cut over, a firework like a fiery red meteor rose into the sky covered with rain clouds!

The next moment, the brilliant fireworks exploded all over the sky, illuminating the gloomy sky, reflecting the happy smiling faces of countless tourists who were struggling to go out under the three-sided square of the Sky Tree below.

"Hello audience friends, this is the live broadcast brought to you by Shin Tokyo Channel, we can see that the fireworks festival of the Sky Tree has begun, and there are really many visitors to the Sky Tree today, and I believe everyone has been looking forward to this day for a long time......."

......

"Wow! It's beautiful! ”

Even in front of the TV, the changing light from the screen reflected the smiling face of Nishimaru Miri, which was particularly plain and full of yearning.

Kolotia wiped her hands and walked over with the sliced sushi, staring at the glittering TV screen with some curiosity.

Countless fireworks collided and shattered in the air one after another, making the cloudy sky look extremely brilliant and colorful, and everyone's faces under the TV lens were filled with happy smiles that had not been seen for a long time.

But just when everything seemed to be thriving in the blessing of fireworks, in the aerial footage of the TV reporter, the glass surface on the southeast side of the Tianwang Corridor on the Sky Tree, which was 300 meters above the ground, suddenly bulged high!

Suddenly, the air began to shake violently, and there was a terrifying popping sound.

Circles of ripples spread out in all directions, and a supreme force descended and enveloped the area.

However, in the brilliant collision of fireworks in the sky, this scene was not discovered by the beautiful people who were still immersed in the fireworks in the Sky Tree Square for the first time...
