Chapter 41: Fighting and leaving
Shadows at night
In a nondescript bungalow, two figures in black trench coats are staring at each other at a table. One of them was tall, with a faint view of the muscular lines hidden under the clothing, and a strong, powerful voice rang out in the room
"Aren't we going over yet? The barrier I set has been broken, and it seems that a terrible figure has come to the door?", the strong man's voice was a little rough, and he said to the man who had been silent across from him.
The man nodded slightly, took out a piece of paper in his hand, wrote something on the fly and handed it to the strong man. This man, who is no different from a normal person, cannot speak and can only communicate with others in other ways.
The strong man looked at the paper in the man's hand, and also responded in a low voice: "We should also go, Bell estimates that he will not be able to hold out for long, under the attack of the enemy of Cheng Dù like that, even the barrier I set up will be broken in an instant." I'm also a little curious about who came to the door......", the strong man and the man got up at the same time, opened a closed door, and galloped away into the distance.
............
The fifth floor of the office building
There is a lot of dust in the air, and the entire floor is affected, and the already very dim corridor is even more blurry because of the dust, and normal people's vision will be greatly disturbed in such a situation, and even breathing will become painful.
A young man's figure appeared vaguely in the dust, and with the young man's footsteps, the dust beside him gradually dissipated, as if driven by an invisible force. As the boy walked, his figure gradually became clearer, and a cyan circle of light surrounded his side, blocking the entry of outside dust. The young man looked around the entire corridor, slightly determined a direction, and strode forward.
"What are you going to do! I won't tell you where those things are hidden!", a female voice came from not far away, as if she was a little angry at the boy's behavior.
"I just want to know how the treasures you acquired were transferred away, you just need to tell me about this, and I can leave. The young man's flat voice came, and there was not much emotion in it.
"That's it, that's why you destroyed all the important buildings of this building so lightly, and you said it so easily!", the woman's voice said with some urgency, as if dissatisfied.
During this conversation, the dust that was constantly drifting on this floor gradually fell, and things gradually became clear. You can see that all kinds of destroyed objects are everywhere on this floor, the pillars that have been blown off, the dilapidated machines, the broken floor tiles, and the metal gates that have been cut in half, all of which indicate the fierce battle that has just begun.
"I just broke in, other things...... Speaking of which, it was all made by your high-explosive grenades, right?", the boy said helplessly, looking at the almost destroyed room.
"......", the woman's voice disappeared for a long time, and it took quite a long time before it continued to appear
"So, what is the purpose of your pursuit of that batch of treasures, it can't be that you are recovering it for the sake of some salvage museum, right?", the woman's voice also became calm, without the momentum of the original rush.
"It's just to get something back, and you don't have to know what it is. Don't worry, this has nothing to do with any other organization, I'm just here for the treasure that was salvaged. The young man's voice still came unhurriedly. The woman who heard this breathed a sigh of relief, as if she wanted to say something, but another violent vibration came.
Both of them looked in the direction where the tremor was coming from, and a large hole had been opened in the already broken metal wall, and a slightly thin man and a strong man were coming out of the hole. The strong man looked at the corridor that was still covered with dust, his thick eyebrows also wrinkled, and he said a little unpleasantly: "What's going on, Bell, aren't you dead yet?"
"Of course you're not dead, and if you do, you'll die a second before me, bastard!", the woman said angrily.
The man who had been silent on the side gently patted the strong man's arm, as if to signal something.
The strong man turned his head and saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy standing in the center of the room, motionless.
The strong man asked in a loud voice with some impatience: "Hey, did you kid make a mess of this room? What a hateful little ghost! Give your name to the uncle, I want to see what kind of character you kid is!", the strong man said a little rudely, as if he didn't care about the young man in front of him at all.
"You're really welcome! This is not the right way to entertain people, is it? Anyway, I'm also a guest, right? I don't have the habit of letting guests come first, do I?" said the young man's unhurried voice.
"Hmph, little ghost, remember Uncle Ben's name!I'm Anri Dark! Remember Uncle Ben's prestige!", the strong man said while laughing as he looked at the young man who didn't speak.
"Well, I'll introduce myself a little bit, Hoshikawa Tatsu, or you can call me 'Treasure Hunter', which is a thing of the past. A gust of wind blew beside Chen, blowing away all the dust in the entire room, and all four of them revealed their figures completely. Of course, there was the corpse of an unknown person lying on the floor next to it, but no one in the room looked over there.
"What a strong ability...... Light yì dispersed the dust of the entire room, and saw that it was the ability of the wind system, and the holder just didn't know which type it belonged to. Although An'er looks very aggressive, he is not the kind of fool who is just strong limbs, and he is also an ability holder, he is also analyzing the ability that has just appeared.
"Treasure hunter?", the woman who had already stood up on the side muttered the title slightly, as if thinking of something.
"I said, what are you doing in the middle of the night, you little ghost, this is not the place you should be here at your age, is it?", An'er said with a vicious glare at Chen.
"I just want to know where something goes, and I ask you to tell me that I can leave when I know it. Chen looked at the big man who was walking forward, and said after taking a few steps back. Although he was not afraid of the guy in front of him, he still needed to keep a little distance in order to avoid certain things.
"Oh, what is it, maybe I can think about it when you're done paying for this building, little ghost?", An'er smirked as she strode over to the young man.
"I just want to get an answer...... Chen's words, before Chen's words were finished, An'er's strong and powerful fist had already smashed into Chen's head, as if it was about to kill with one blow, full of killing intent.
"Really...... It's your style. Tatsumi said as he steadily blocked An'er's ferocious and merciless punch with his seemingly powerless hand, staring into his eyes.
"You little ghost, don't be too rampant!", An Er felt that his fist was blocked, first a little surprised, and then increased the force in his hand, and yelled at Chen a little furiously.
"Really...... Hmm!", Chen took a few steps back, stared at his slightly dry palm, and asked in a low voice: "Can you control the water in the human body? It's really a dangerous ability", he just retreated not because he couldn't withstand An'er's strength, but because he was suddenly eroded by An'er's ability and dodged backwards.
"Haha, this kind of feeling of water being steamed in my body is rare, isn't it?little ghost, you can turn me into a dry corpse!", An'er took another half step forward and pointed at Chen and roared.
"I don't like turning into a dry corpse, how about turning into an ice sculpture?uncle?", Tatsuru let go of his right hand that had just been affected, and at this time, in a short period of time, his hand had recovered as before, as if it had not been affected. After saying this, Tatsumi took a step forward, and suddenly an astonishing chill rushed right in front of him, and a thick layer of ice crystals condensed on the ground.
After feeling the biting chill, An'er, who was walking forward, took a few steps back, and a curtain of water changed by ability appeared in front of him, trying to resist the erosion of this cold current. But unfortunately, his ability was restrained by Tatsu, and such a curtain of water instantly turned into ice crystals and finally shattered. This astonishing cold snap did not stop, but spread throughout the room, and in less than a moment, thirty percent of the floor of the room was covered in ice crystals, and the three people in front of the original Pen Fun Pavilion in front of Chen all took a few steps back to avoid being affected by this force.
"Do you have dual powers? I really underestimate you, little ghost!", Erlie said as he took a few steps back and looked at the boy who was standing in the middle of the room, as if he had walked out of the snow and ice.
Generally speaking, there is only one ability to master a detective, and because of the limitations of various aspects, it is quite difficult to master an ability that is not the same as oneself. This is also the reason why Joan of Arc was very surprised that she was able to learn her ice and dust magic in the first place. However, there are also very few characters who have more than two abilities, but they are too rare for no one to see.
Although An Erlie is the ability holder of the water system G18, he is indeed a little uncertain in his heart in the face of the young man in front of him who has mastered two abilities and can also restrain his ability.
"Boss, this little imp is a little tricky? Shall we consider talking to him for a while? I'm not sure we can beat him. An Erlie could vaguely feel the level of Chen's ability, and he was not too sure that he would be able to defeat him.
"Ahh
"Bell, if you do it, you should have seen how powerful this little imp is, right? I'm not sure I can completely suppress this little ghost, not to mention that he has two companions. Erlie looked at the two figures who came out of the corridor, a white girl with a wooden bow and a golden girl with two guns. With his intuition honed through life and death, he can roughly estimate that the two people are also S-class characters, and the white girl gives him a strong sense of crisis.
"Hmph!", the woman who was called Bell turned her head, looked at Chen with some unconvinced and said, "Little ghost, you are lucky, I won't be polite next time I meet you!".
The silent man grabbed Bell and gestured a little, and then Bell thought for a moment, and then said to the three people opposite her, "Come along, we can talk to you, but now we must get out of here too." ”
Tatsuya probably heard the sound of a police car in the distance, and knew that the sound and situation of this building had alarmed the surrounding residents, and now this place was not suitable for communicating with these three people.
Tatsumi nodded, and the three of them ran down the gap between the floors after seeing Tatsumi agree, Tatsumi looked at Riko and Miyashizuku who had just arrived, and whispered, "Let's go too!"
Riko and Miyazuku didn't come up for long, but they still had a rough idea of what was going on, so they nodded and chased after Tatsuna............
In the evening of the second day
Flights from Sydney to Tokyo, located in the Northern Hemisphere, in select First Class.
Riko and Miyashizuku were leaning against the window, looking at a large iron bridge across the harbor beneath the clouds and marveling. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the bridge is in the ever-changing sunset, sometimes brilliant golden and sometimes dark brown and purple. Under the gradually dimming canopy, the bridge gradually lit up with pure lights, illuminating this smooth avenue.
Riko looked at the bridge below and said with some loss, "Eh! Miyazuzuku, we forgot to climb the Sydney Bridge!"
"Oh!! yes...... I really wanted to climb up...... , it's a pity that I don't have time......", Miyazuzuku said with some frustration as he looked at the bright bridge under the clouds.
"I think it's just that you're wasting too much time on other attractions...... It's impossible to visit every attraction, right?", Tatsuna's voice came from behind, and it sounded as flat as ever.
"Eh, it's all Chen's fault, right?, the ticket was booked too early!", Miyazuku complained with some dissatisfaction.
“...... I wasn't sure how long it would take, so I didn't expect this to happen," Tatsushi explained.
"But the mission has been completed, and this has solved a lot of problems. ", Riko looked at Tatsumi who was holding a computer and said softly.
"The three men in the 'shadows' are surprisingly easy to talk to...... The bill was handed over to us at once. Gong Shizuku remembered some things last night and said with some surprise. Originally, it was thought that the three of them would have to fight each other for a while to get them to hand over these things, but in fact, Tatsumi easily got the bill from them.
"After all, the situation was not good for them at the time, and what I asked for was not very important to them. So you don't have to fight, do you?", Tatsumi said as he took a sip of juice and continued to look at the computer on his lap.
"Riko is a little concerned about what those treasures look like?", Riko leaned in front of Tatsu, looking at the various treasures and captions that kept jumping on the screen, and said jokingly.
"It looks like it was excavated from the wreckage of a ship six or seven hundred years ago...... Not surprisingly, it was a ship used by ancient maritime merchants to sell various jewels, and it seems that there are many treasures that are cherished. Chen Fei flipped through most of the information and summarized slightly.
"But these things are out of their hands...... Looks like we have to track down the whereabouts of these things, right, Tatsu?", Riko whispered as she looked at Tatsumi who was lost in thought.
"Well, Riko, then I'll get rid of you below...... I feel that there should be something I'm looking for here, but unfortunately these goods are too scattered, and it's really a bit troublesome to find them, after all, there are five or six hundred treasures. Chen, looking through the information on the computer again, said with a frown. If he had dealt with the Shadows two years ago, he might have been able to find what he was looking for soon. But in the past two years, the 'Shadow' has sold all the treasures, and it is really inconvenient to track it down. What Tatsumi has in his hand at this time is the list of people who bought the 'shadow' goods.
"No problem!Tatsu, this is a minor problem for me!Riko will soon find out the whereabouts of these things!", Riko said confidently.
"There's no rush anyway...... There's still a lot of time to figure this out. Now let's go back to Wu Detective High School first. Tatsumi said as he looked at the gradually changing scenery of the clouds outside the window.
"Oh, I'm going back to that hot place again!!", Riko complained impatiently as if she had lost her strength when she heard Tatsu's words.
"Don't forget that there are still Kana and an unknown ability owner in Detective High School...... It's a lot of trouble to go back...... It's really the center of the chaotic vortex......," Tatsumi sighed as he looked into the distance.
Of course, what Rangchen didn't expect was the arrival of a more terrible enemy.
(ps: I accidentally overslept 2333, and I can't sleep for too long...... )
