Chapter 22: Assassination and the Pillar Squad

May 21st... Isn't it today... I'm going to die in an assassination attempt at six o'clock tonight?

Seti looked down at the anonymous text message on her phone, her brow furrowing.

Could it be the triad's revenge?

He immediately thought of the triad's body, after all, he completely smashed the triad's face last night.

But it shouldn't be, it stands to reason that with Seti's acting last night, the head of the headlight team recorded the evidence of the triad's plot against the Qinghe group in the dark.

In the future, the rest of the Tokyo group will no longer be able to help the triad on the bright side, if nothing else, now the Qinghe group has begun to rightfully annex and occupy the related industries of the triad...

β€”β€”β€”That's the real purpose of the headlight team leader last night.

Although the war between the gangs in Tokyo is no longer purely fighting and killing.

But in the face of the menacing Qinghe group, there is still a high probability that the triad still does not have much spare time, and they do not have the energy to send someone to investigate his identity, and they were even brought up to assassinate Seti.

Because this will add fuel to the fire of the current relationship between the two groups.

The Qinghe group will completely tear its face, instead of annexing a part of it according to the original plan and implementing "point to point".

Seti thought.

- All this knowledge was told to him by the housekeeper Taro Ishimura last night.

Meantime.

If it's really the triad's revenge.

And who sent him an anonymous text message?

Is this text message a threat? Or is it to remind Sethi that he should prepare early?

Seti was puzzled.

I decided to send a message to ask the housekeeper first, as an old gangster, the other party has much stronger resources such as connections than Seti, and may be able to investigate something.

...

Half past five in the afternoon.

Seti grinded in the boxing club for a while before leaving the school gate.

After inquiring for most of the day, the housekeeper replied to Seti in the afternoon.

The reply was:

"I can guarantee that no yakuza in Tokyo will dare to plot against you these days."

As for the reason... It's because of the whim of the little lover remarks of the head of the headlights and the black skin team leader last night.

In Tokyo, Aoi Shieda is famous, but it is not because she "stays at night", on the contrary, she has never broken out any rumors related to the opposite sex.

Therefore, now a little lover suddenly popped up, and any gang that wants to deal with Seti must weigh the revenge of Aoi Broken Branch in advance.

And since it's not a gangster.

Naseti really didn't have a clue.

You can't just confirm yesterday that this world has a high probability of having extraordinary powers, and today there will be extraordinary events coming to your door, right?

How could it be so coincidental!

"Take it one step at a time... Go home later today, just don't bother my mother and sister... If you really want to assassinate me, you'll have to see if you're qualified! ”

Setti's training over the past few days, as well as the life-and-death battle in the Black Boxing Stadium, were not experienced in vain.

With getting out of the school gates.

Seti saw an unexpected figure.

She walked alone in a hurry, not wearing a school uniform, but wearing casual clothes that were close to the body, suitable for sports, her hair was tied up, and she had a unique cold temperament, which was a little more capable.

Naturally, it is the iceberg goddess of Urouran, Yuri Ito.

On top of that, she carried a long, rectangular snow-white box behind her, almost half as tall as she was.

Is it some kind of musical instrument? Seti guessed.

Ito Yumori didn't notice Seti's gaze, her eyes like frozen autumn water kept looking ahead until she stepped into a limousine.

Just look at the butt of the van.

Seti knew that it was a model that he couldn't afford at the moment.

I think of the delicate bento box that Yumeri Ito had in the middle of the day in the grove, the white jade-like chopsticks, and the daily bento that is comparable to Michelin-certified kaiseki cuisine.

is a rich woman with a lot of money... Sethi commented.

As Ito Yumori left in a luxury car, Seti did not give in and drove the No. 11 bus smoothly in the direction of his home.

Seti deliberately walked very slowly today.

He listened to the roar of the Seibu Railway's trains from time to time; He watched the off-duty social animals flying like flying and their ties; He admired the tranquility of the sunset as it fell on the cherry blossom trees.

He saw more.

It's a narrow alley with no one in it.

When the time came to 17:57, Seti turned into the alley again.

In the empty alley, the footsteps of others suddenly sounded.

It's finally here... Sethi pauses, turns on digitization, and turns around gradually.

This is the battlefield he specially selected, in the narrow and unpassable alleys, on the one hand, there will be no witnesses, and on the other hand... Firearms will also be significantly limited here!

Seti finally saw the appearance of this "killer" who followed him all the way.

This person is dressed as a social animal in a suit, not tall, and even a little thin.

A thin face, a pale complexion, and dark circles under the eyes that were thick with grade 10 smoky makeup, his eyes were misty and shaky, panting, and his steps were vain.

It looks like a "hidden gentleman" who flies more grass.

Such a person came to assassinate me? I don't have any weapons in my hands... Seti looked surprised.

He felt that the man in front of him would fall if the wind blew.

And the first sentence of the kidney-deficient man completely dispelled Seti's doubts, and the other party's hoarse voice was like a stone rubbing, making a sound, declaring:

"Seti Theseus... Today will be your death! ”

Before the words fell, the eyes of the man with kidney deficiency flashed with ruthlessness, and there were not many cruel words, and Tengteng ran towards Seti with his bare hands.

What a deal... Sethi did not release the water.

Just like facing an opponent in the black boxing ring, put on a boxing stance, jump lightly, and perform footwork.

Men with kidney deficiency apparently did not have any systematic training.

After running close to Seti, a random swing of Wang Ba punch hit Seti.

What a killer is this man? Sethi was confused, and easily dodged with a back sliding step, and after standing firm, he smashed the yellow dragon with his left jab, aiming at the opponent's eyebrows.

And then...

Sting!

Seti's attack has not yet arrived, but the face of the kidney-deficient man exploded directly!!

Clumps of flesh and foul-smelling blood scattered around, and the yellow-white bones were deformed like running waterβ€”and finally turned into a large clamp that clamped Seti's fist firmly!

What the hell!! Seti was taken aback.

Immediately, he will pick up his right fist, stimulate passivity, and try to smash the bone of his opponent's left hand.

But men with kidney deficiency move faster.

The disorganized Wang Ba fist in his hand stopped instantly, and the flesh and blood of his arms also exploded, revealing yellow-white finger bones and half-truncated radius.

As both hands stabbed into Sethi's brain, the bones also changed like flowing water, turning into two sharp bone blades that slammed into Seti's head.

Bang!

Phew!

The fist and knife are the same.

Seti contained a punch from a passive strong wrist, directly turning the kidney deficiency man into a clip like a strange shape, wrapping the skull of his right fist and shattering it!

And the hands of the kidney-deficient man turned into bone blades also pierced Seti's head!

"Hahahahaha..."The kidney-deficient man withdrew his bone blade, and the shattered skull was also re-condensed, turning into a pink skull with a missing piece, and he was taking two steps back, opening his mouth and laughing,

"I succeeded, hahaha, I succeeded, hahahaha, I killed the target, I finally don't have to become a monster, I can finally turn back into a normal person... Hahaha....."

The maniacal laughter, combined with the skull with the jawbone laughing off, was full of insanity.

Can.

Seti, whose head was spurting blood, did not fall, but calmly asked, "Why, are you so happy to kill me?" ”

The laughter came to an abrupt end.

The man with kidney deficiency reached out and reattached the jawbone that had laughed off, even if it was a skull state, he could sense his consternation, and said:

"You, you're not dead!? How can it be!! ”

Seti looked down at the health in her field of vision:

【330/600】

Two headshots kill him for 270 HP!

If it weren't for the digital model, he would indeed be dead.

However, yesterday, I had just seen the immortal methods of the elderly samurai Ishimura Kojiro, and at the same time, I heard some bizarre stories from Aoi Shieda, and realized that this world has a high probability of extraordinary power.

Therefore, although Seti was surprised that he had encountered it so quickly, he was not frightened by the kidney-deficient man in front of him.

If you dare to assassinate me, no matter what kind of bull ghost and snake god you are, you will die!!

Seize the moment when the kidney-deficient man lost his mind.

Seti unleashes a skill to conquer people!

His fists glowed with pale golden brilliance, and the whole person suddenly accelerated, heading towards the skull man with kidney deficiency!

......

Half an hour later.

Footsteps resounded in the silent alley.

With a sleek ponytail and a snow-white katana in her hand, Yumori Ito walked at the forefront, her face like frost and her eyes as sharp as eagle eyes were searching.

She was followed by a man and a woman.

The female is petite, not very old, and is a flat-chested little witch wearing a red and white witch costume.

The man looked nearly thirty years old, with sparse stubble and a wooden expression, and wore thick black-framed glasses, which looked like a common "science and engineering dog".

The man looked down at the portable wrist computer and said, "Captain, that supernatural person who is approaching a critical value... The last signal, it was here. ”

Ito Yumori nodded slightly, and gently rested her white slender hand on the snow-white katana hilt.

Always ready to draw your sword!

They are the standing squad of the "Tenju Tokyo Nerima Branch".

"Heavenly Pillar" is an official organization in cooperation with ZF and the Public Security Bureau of Japan.

It is composed of the four local practitioners of Japan, "Samurai", "Onmyoji", "Shinto Shrine Maiden", and "Buddhist Zen Monk", plus the "Hundred Reinchus" as a logistical support.

He has been ruling the transcendent side of Japan for many years, and is committed to maintaining the balance between Japanese practitioners and ordinary people.

So that "the practitioner does not interfere with the life of ordinary people, and ordinary people do not know the existence of practitioners".

This is the meaning of the existence and purpose of the Heavenly Pillar, and it has been maintained for nearly a thousand years from ancient times to the present.

But a hundred years ago, there was a sudden increase in the number of strange people on the Japanese soil.

Some of them have awakened one after another because their families have been ruined, some have been greatly stimulated, and some have been on the verge of death, and they have obtained extraordinary abilities called "supernatural abilities", breaking down the barriers between ordinary people and cultivators.

Such people are called "Adepts" by the Celestial Pillars.

After awakening, every person with extraordinary abilities will become extremely extreme, some are promiscuous, some are moody, and they have mastered extraordinary abilities, and they have become the biggest unstable factor in society.

Therefore, the mission of the Tianzhu team has gradually changed from maintaining stability at the beginning to fighting against the "supernatural".

Now the Tianzhu team led by Ito Yumori is like this.

This afternoon, she received an anonymous text message.

The content is:

[No. 37, Kotakecho, Nerima Ward, in a room on the second floor near the left-hand side, there lives an alien who is close to a critical value]

Although it is not clear who this "enthusiastic citizen" is, because even Tianzhu cannot decipher the anonymity of the other party, according to the IP address, only Croatia has been searched.

However, Team Ito went to the address mentioned above and investigated.

After all, "the one who is approaching a critical value".

For society, this is undoubtedly a time bomb that is about to explode.

With the increase in the number of times the ability is used, the personality of the person with the ability will become more and more extreme, commonly known as becoming more and more crazy, when the "critical value" is reached or even broken, the person with the ability will go completely crazy, lose all humanity, and become a "beast" with no reason and only a mass of biological instincts.

- The alien beast is a monster that everyone thinks of and everyone hates, and it is also the ultimate destination of all supernatural beings.

But when Team Ito entered the room at the address.

only to find that it was empty.

According to the investigation, it was found that there was indeed a strange person living here before, and it was indeed approaching the critical value, and it could go crazy and turn into a strange beast at any time.

Kazumitsu Kameda, the master of the Wood Tree, then pulled out the person's underwear and searched for the artifact with the help of the search for the artifact.

Finally positioned this Anomalous One.

And came to the alley where the last signal appeared now.

"Hey, Kameda, what level is that ability?" The flat-chested little witch who walked at the end asked with a big grin.

"Level 2." Kameda Kazumitsu of Kine, helped his glasses and replied.

The cultivators of the Heavenly Pillar are different according to the strength of their spiritual power and their ability to grasp it.

From low to high, it is divided into "1~9 levels".

And although the ability cannot be practiced, with the increase in the number of times the ability is used, although the personality will become more and more extreme, the strength will also increase simultaneously, so the pillar also applies the level of the practitioner to the ability to use, which is used to distinguish the strong and the weak.

"Level 2... If it becomes a level 2 alien beast, it will be troublesome. The flat-chested little witch said.

She has been practicing for more than ten years now, and she is only a second-level Shinto witch.

Facing a level 2 beast alone, you can only tremble and cry for your father and mother.

Ito Yumori, who was walking in the front, saw that the flat-chested little witch during the mission looked relaxed and chattering, without any sense of vigilance.

Suddenly looking back, as soon as those cold eyes swept over, the flat-chested little witch girl immediately shuddered, covered her small mouth, and didn't dare to speak casually.

Obviously very afraid of the captain.

"Captain... I think we've found the Anomalous One..."Kameda Kazumitsu said with a stunned expression.

For a wooden engineer like him, such a change in expression is really rare.

Yumori Ito approached quickly.

Saw... There were a mess of yellow-white broken bones piled up in the corners, and the flesh and blood around them were flying everywhere, comparable to a bloody shard.

This unknown anomaly, who has never even met in person... It's too dead to be dead anymore!

"Hey, who can beat a level 2 ability like this... It can't be level 3, right? ”

After the flat-chested little witch approached, her round pupils widened, and although she covered her red lips with her hands, she still exclaimed.

But Ito Mengli, who is obviously about the same age as her, does not change her face, and her cold and elegant little face is not afraid.

Instead, he lowered himself and took a piece of broken bone and groped it in his hand.

In the end, he said, "It's a fist." ”

"Fist? How hard is a fist that can break bones like this... Could it be that those brothers, noble Buddhas, and monks did it? The flat-chested little witch was surprised.

Ito Yumori shook her head slowly, indicating that she didn't know either.

Level 2 Abilities have completely detached themselves from the realm of ordinary people, and can defeat them and destroy them so completely.

It shows that this mysterious person must also be an extraordinary person, and the level will not be too low.

I just don't know if it's a cultivator or a supernatural person... She looked around at the pieces of flesh and blood sticking to the walls around her, and ordered Kazumitsu Kameda, the master of the Kineh Hundred Trainers:

"Since it's a fist attack... Collect some of the surrounding blood clots and blood, and send them for testing to find out the identity and experience of the Death Ability.

"At the same time, maybe you can find out the identity of that mysterious person."

......

The other side.

Under the light of the old man's street lamp.

Solving the sudden assassination, Seti, covered in blood, finally returns home...
