"Finally got back."

Feeling the vibration of the mobile phone in her hand, Akemi Miyano looked at the lit screen for the first time, and then breathed a sigh of relief and carefully climbed up along the trunk of the tree.

Although this giant tree looks like it is carved out of jade, gold and silver, like a handicraft that cannot be touched casually, the actual strength is still much higher.

Although it appears to be made of metal, the entire body of the tree feels like some kind of smooth special material, and it is a little warm.

Where her palm touches, it will be excited to glow faintly, and it will flicker like a golden soft light, which is very in line with people's instinctive imagination of mythical trees.

It took dozens of seconds for her to ascend to the stout bifurcation position, looking down at the ground beneath her feet.

It's quite high, but it's easier to climb than you think.

Silently counting the time, she cautiously opened another bottle and poured it twice on herself before tentatively stretching out her bare toes and walking onto the leaf-covered branches.

Although it was somewhat strange to discuss what kind of thing such a thing was, she carefully observed the shape of the leaves on both sides of the branches, and made a judgment.

It's an apple tree.

Struggling to keep her balance, she reached her destination, carefully bent down, and sat down on the branches.

The golden branches trembled a few times in her movements, as if expressing fear of the impending fate.

"It's beautiful." Tapping the branch at her side, she reached out and hung silently above her target, waiting for a signal.

Tang Ze had instructed her that she must strictly follow the agreement, and unless there are special circumstances such as being discovered or accidentally entering the battle, she must not act rashly until his signal arrives.

According to Karasawa, Kenzo Kashiyama will die soon.

As soon as the owner of the temple died, the temple would collapse in a very short time.

And if she takes something in advance, the effect is the same.

The secret treasure is the root of the distortion of the hall owner, and if the source of desire is lost, the temple will lose its core, and it will also collapse quickly.

So they have to get stuck in time to complete this trick that belongs to the Monster Thief of the Heart.

Akemi Miyano lowered her eyes and looked at her goal.

A golden apple, surrounded by her five fingers, exudes a sweet smell.

This is the taste of life.

————

Sneakily looking left and right to make sure that no one noticed his actions, Kenzo Kashiyama quickened his pace.

Leaving everyone's sight, he no longer continued to pretend to be old, and rushed to his destination with brisk steps.

The teaser in his arms was like a red soldering iron, scorching him profusely.

As a veteran of the organization, he knows a little about the real goals of the organization, not only has a certain concept of "cognitive learning", but has even met Tang Ze and his wife themselves.

Of course, he had heard about the Monster Thief of the Heart, which had been closely watched by the organization's higher-ups recently.

They possess a certain cognitive power that can easily affect a person's mind and even personality.

They have personal information, and they have discovered his true body under the skin, which means that he has no secrets in front of them.

If any member receives a notice letter from the Monster Thief of the Heart, it is equivalent to telling the organization that he is about to leak secrets, and it can even be said that he is about to change his mind, not only exposing the secrets of the organization to the Monster Thief, but also possibly exposing it to more people and exposing it to the public eye.

This is absolutely intolerable for organizations.

Can't let anyone find it, Kenzo Kashiyama didn't even have the courage to throw it away at will, so he could only move forward.

Control Shirley first, Gin will definitely be interested in this news......

Her particular diminution may also be related to that drug, which is also crucial to the organization.

He is not without a bargaining chip against the organization, take your time, take your time......

Choosing a more secluded route, he took the parking lot around the direction of the old building, waited for the elevator to stop on the 6th floor, and walked to position 604, where the cellar was located.

The bullet-pierced lock knocked his outstretched hand into the air.

Well? Has anyone been here?

He immediately became alert, first drew the gun he had hidden, and slowly approached.

Before he could reach out to touch it, the door in front of him moved first, and he slammed it open, and the heavy door slammed into him, and he sat down directly on the ground.

A black figure rushed out of the door like lightning.

Seeing the image of the person who came a little clearly, Kenzo Kashiyama almost couldn't hold the gun in his hand.

Joker！ This is the Monster of the Heart!

He is, he is ......!

"Bang!"

Before Kenzo could make a move, a gunshot rang out from the other side of the hallway.

Joker's target was clearly not him, and almost as soon as the shots rang out, the man had dodged to the side of the hallway.

Kenzo Kashiyama took a step back in embarrassment, and turned his head sharply to look over.

I saw Akechi Goro, dressed in a black suit, who had climbed to the sixth floor at some point, also holding a pistol with a silencer in his hand, and was chasing Joker's fleeing figure and shooting.

He shot and suppressed as he approached in the direction that Joker had fled, and when he passed by Kenzo Kazayama, he finally lowered his eyes and aimed at him.

"You helped me kill my useless daddy, I think I should say thank you to you." There is no trace of sunshine in him, he looks down, and he has a cold-blooded feeling like a snake, "But your level is really too bad, 'Pisco'." ”

"......!" Kenzo Kazayama's eyes widened.

Ignoring him as he fell to the ground, Akechi Goro quickened his pace of pursuit, and while keeping moving and shooting, he quickly ran after Joker, and soon, disappeared around the corner of the corridor.

Akechi Goro...... It's actually a member of the organization!

Thinking of his gaffe when he found out about the teaser letter, Ken Yamayama's three-sided skin trembled twice, and he was inexplicably frightened.

"Boom!" Just as Kenzo Kashiyama barely relied on the crutches in his hand and stood up straight, there was a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground from inside the door of the sake cellar.

Shirley ...... That's right, Shirley!

Although the lock had been broken and Joker had come out of it, since he hadn't taken anyone with him, maybe he ......

With the last vestiges of fantasy in his heart, Kenzo Kashiyama remembered his original purpose, settled down, and stretched out his hand to push the door open.

Without the natural light, the unlit cellar is darker than in the afternoon.

Pisco adjusted to the environment for a few seconds before walking in the direction of the sounding fireplace.

His somewhat cloudy vision had not yet been able to catch the inside of the fireplace, and Beretta, with the silencer installed, had already reached out of the fireplace and pressed directly against his wrinkled forehead.

"Gin, Gin......" let go of the gun in his hand, Kenzo Kashiyama raised his hands to show his cooperation, followed the force of the muzzle, and retreated weakly, "What are you doing here, you have something to say......"

He shouldn't have shown any clues about the notice letter.

Even if Shirley really ran away, he would at most lose a meritorious service, and it shouldn't have reached the point of fighting each other......

Kenzo Kashiyama tried to stabilize his mind, looked at the gin hanging his right hand, and slowly bent out of the fireplace, the muzzle of the gun in his hand was aimed at his eyebrows without wavering.

"Where's Joker?" Gin's eyes quickly circled the room, and he couldn't see the person he was looking for, so he said directly, "Did he escape?" ”
