Congratulations on Your Arrest

  Chapter 253 Stepping up to the seventh level, killer play (4)

   "Is it all resolved?"

   "Since it's a problem? Is there a half solution?"

   A short silence.

"OK."

  After saying this, Feng Moluan hung up the phone, and lay back on the chair lightly, the evening wind blew the curtains and made a rustling sound.

From the angle where he is lying on the chair, he can just see through the gaps in the curtains that the glass walls of the buildings in the distance under the setting sun are stained with warm yellow twilight. The busy city in the daytime seems to suddenly become lazy at this moment. Get lazy.

This is a small two-story building in Shitamachi, Edogawa District. It is not too big or too small. The monthly rent is 150,000 yen, which is not a small amount, but within his acceptable range, it is mainly quiet around and close to the tram station. convenient.

  It was getting late, Feng Moluan watched the afterglow of the setting sun slide through the gap in the curtains to the corner of the wall.

   After being silent for a while, he glanced at the advertisement card on the table, picked up his mobile phone and made a random call.

   "Hi, is this a cake shop?"

   "Yes, yes, yes, birthday cake."

   "How old are you? Oh, it looks like eight years old."

   "Okay, I'll get it in half an hour."

  “.”

  Hung up the phone, Feng Moluan prepared the things he needed to bring when going out and began to change clothes.

   Finally went to the door to change shoes.

  There is a green potted plant behind the gate, its scientific name is Yinhou evergreen, also known as "Silver Queen".

   "Silver Queen" This is Feng Moluan's friend, the only friend, always happy and never asking questions.

   "Two people" also have the same hobby.

   Basking in the sun.

  Many people think that a killer like Feng Moluan, codenamed "Shadow", should hide in the shadows for the rest of his life.

  The fact is not the case.

  Feng Moluan likes to bask in the sun. When the weather is sunny, he likes to change into ordinary clothes, walk on ordinary streets with his ordinary face, and feel the warmth of the sun.

  The same goes for the four seasons.

  Assassin is a dangerous and easy job, depending on how you think about it.

  Feng Moluan felt that his work was easy.

   When, where, who deserves to die.

  Don't worry about him.

  Like today.

  Everything has already been arranged.

  Feng Moluan answered the phone, changed his shoes, went out, and rode on the black will-o'-the-wisp motorcycle parked in the yard.

  As he put on the helmet, his mind recalled the markings on the wall calendar that he had accidentally glimpsed this morning when he walked through the morning fog to take the little girl named "Nova" from the asylum.

   Someone has a birthday today.

   is a little girl named Elsa.

  The shelters are generally relatively poor. In previous years, birthdays were eaten with red bean rice and rice cakes. Today, I showed up with a big creamy fruit cake that looked very attractive. I think those children will be very excited and happy.

  Feng Moluan thought in his heart,

  The corners of the mouth can't help but rise slightly.

  Suddenly, he remembered the task he had just given on the phone.

   Solving all the troubles naturally means that even those children will not be spared.

  He couldn't help frowning.

  Furui Wubo's heart rarely felt a little irritated, which shouldn't be there, maybe because it touched the experience in the shelter that year.

  Feng Moluan thought in his heart.

   But no problem, he is a professional killer, he can do it after asking the children to eat the cake.

  Bending down and twisting the accelerator, the black will-o’-the-wisp motorcycle disappeared into the twilight amidst the sound of the rumbling engine, but for the first time he felt that the profession of killer was not only easy.

   seems a little helpless.

   Half an hour later, in a box of a nightclub in Edogawa District.

  A glass bottle was pierced in the thigh just now. The leader of the Ashida group, Yoshishi Ashida, who was lying weakly back on the sofa with closed eyes and resting his mind, waiting for the private doctor to come, suddenly felt his face was a little wet.

He subconsciously raised his hand and wiped it. He was startled and opened his eyes suddenly, only to find that there was a familiar face above his head—it was the subordinate who was guarding the door just now, but at this moment his head was held by a shadow in his hand. On top of his head, blood dripped and splashed all over his face.

  Yoshishi Ashida wanted to exclaim subconsciously, but the next one was horrified to find that this command came out of his head, but no sound could come out of his throat.

why?

  Oh, it turns out that the head and neck are separated.

  The moment his consciousness dissipated, a sense of suddenness rose in the somewhat bewildered Ashida Yoshinori.

  Dididi-!

mission accomplished,

  The call is quickly connected again.

   "The nightclub has been dealt with, but it seems that someone is following us."

   "Who? From the third investigation team?"

   "No, it seems to be a private detective agency."

   "Phew, that's good, if you confirm it's a problem, let's solve it together."

"OK."

  “.”

  Feng Moluan hung up the phone.

After going out, he rode on the will-o'-the-wisp motorcycle parked in the back alley of the nightclub, and arrived at the Edogawa Asylum at a faster speed than those young people from the detective agency. woman in charge.

  In the reception room of the asylum, the woman wants to make tea for him, the best tea.

  Feng Mo said nonsense, no need.

  The woman froze for a moment and said, why.

  Feng Moluan said, after drinking your tea, I'm afraid I'm too embarrassed to do it.

  A moment later, the woman fell into a pool of blood together with the female worker who brought the water to make tea, with seven parts of panic, one part of doubt, one part of unwillingness and one part of anger.

  Feng Moluan tidied his clothes, carried the cake and walked out the door.

  Looking at the yard running back and forth around the slide, laughing from time to time, children of all ages

   These are also his "quest objectives".

  On the lawn, the girls are playing house, and some boys are playing peek-a-boo.

  Suddenly, a blond-haired tomboy-like girl ran towards Feng Moluan, tilted her head curiously and glanced at the reception room behind the man.

   "Uncle, is Auntie in there? Can I hide there?"

   "It's not allowed there."

   "Okay. Uncle, what's in your hand?"

"cake."

"looks very tasty."

   "Want to try it?"

   "Huh? Is it okay?"

"sure."

  Because this is for you.

  Feng Moluan said silently in his heart.

   With a smile on his face, he quietly watched the blonde girl named Aisha in front of him.

  She didn't know him, but he knew her.

   Just met this morning.

   It's just that his mood is inexplicably depressed. Is the trough of his career coming earlier?

  Feng Moluan smiled self-deprecatingly.

  As a killer, he shouldn't have these extra emotions. The biggest advantage of being a killer is that he doesn't have to "make decisions" by himself.

  Feng Moluan has a lazy personality, and he used to think it was easy, but this time he didn't feel very good, so his complexion became a little pale.

  At this time, there was a faint sound of a small motorcycle engine coming from far and near in the alley outside the shelter yard.

  Feng Moluan's expression changed.

  He glanced at the children running happily in the yard, and there was not much time left for him to complete the task.

  According to the above arrangement,

  He wants to clean up these "task objectives".

  With his ability, it was very easy to do these before the two small motorcycles outside the alley arrived.

  But Feng Moluan's heart suddenly moved, and he made a decision—to solve the three mission objectives outside first.

  Obviously, this was a decision that violated the arrangement above. If something goes wrong, he will bear full responsibility.

  But Feng Moluan felt inexplicably relieved.

  Whether this "decision" is right or wrong,

   This is the first time he has made in his career as a killer, and it belongs to his "own decision".

   "Aisha, Uncle wants to play a game of peek-a-boo with everyone."

   "Huh? Uncle can hide and seek too?"

   "Uncle hide-and-seek is very good, can you go and inform everyone, if you win the cake, it will be all yours."

"Great!"

   I don’t know when the little fat boy who came over to stare at the cake while eavesdropping and drooling, ran towards the direction of the slide.

   In the blink of an eye, this huge good news quickly spread among the children.

The children playing on the lawn stopped their movements one after another, staring at the huge and attractive creamy fruit cake in Feng Moluan's hands, and for just a few seconds, they all rushed to the second floor of the shelter to find their own places hid.

   "10, 9, 8, 7"

  Feng Moluan stood in the yard, with his back to the excited children, counting down word by word with a smile on his lips.

  When the last count reaches "1",

  He put on his helmet, pushed open the gate of the yard, and stepped onto his black will-o'-the-wisp motorcycle.

  Next,

  The scene that happened in the alley began to repeat itself.

  Finally, when the unstoppable horror [Thunder Ring. Huo Lei Shen Zhan] swept across, the last thought that flashed through Feng Moluan's mind was—hehe, it seems that he made a "wrong" decision.

   It's just that he didn't have any regrets in his heart, but was relieved and relieved.

  If you are unfortunate enough to meet this mysterious powerhouse of the four-cutting adjudicator today, death has become his final foregone conclusion.

   Then if you just follow the above decision and clean up the children in the shelter,

  I'm afraid he will really die with regret.

   so and so

  As an abandoned son of the Fuma family

  This ending

   Isn’t it pretty good too?

  The moment the tail of his thoughts was interrupted, Feng Moluan's field of vision rose sharply, and immediately hit the ground heavily.

   This is where it all ends.

  In the shelter in Edogawa Ward.

  The scene in front of Higashinohara suddenly turned, and his consciousness was like a tide, and he withdrew from the profile of the characters in the [Crime Manual], and returned to reality.

  【Congratulations to the host for completing the clearing task】

  【Reward for attribute points: 2 (you can add points freely)】

  【Innate Ability Drop Reward: Shadow of Yesterday】

   Higashinohara rubbed the space between his brows.

At this time, his attention was not immediately attracted by the mission reward of [Guilty Manual] as before, but the man who just killed "Shadow" or should be called "Feng Moluan" reappeared in his mind. The scene just now.

  Finally, it stayed on the image of a person, that is, the big man Feng Moluan talked about, and the person who arranged for him to come today to solve all the troubles in the shelter.

  The new Prime Minister, Dong Sen Hegu.

Although Higashinohara knew from the release of the public televised speech by the Prime Minister's Office that afternoon, his beliefs have been completely different from that of Higashimori who has used "everything for the people" as a pretense to accomplish his ideals and goals since he took office. Parted ways.

It's just that he didn't expect that this so-called "our prime minister" would not hesitate to get his hands dirty when Wano Country was undergoing such a great change that had not been seen in hundreds of years, and embarked on such a road full of problems. Dirty and sinful roads.

   After watching Fu Moran's profile of the characters, the mystery that has shrouded Higashinohara's heart all day today has been solved at once.

  Yuni's older sister Nova,

   It should have been agreed to "ship" today and sell it to the human trafficker Ashida Yoshifumi of the Ashida group.

  Everything is ready.

But the killer Feng Moluan, who represents the prime minister of the cabinet, came here and took Nova away halfway—the purpose was to satisfy the old man of the Beijing-Kowloon family to "provide them with three children who have reached the age of eleven." requirements.

   What do those old guys want human children to do?

Nobody knows.

   Nobody seems to care either.

  Perhaps from the perspective of adults, for the future of Wano country, sacrificing the children in these shelters, or the orphans living here from other countries, is a matter that can be made quickly without much consideration

   But Higashinohara couldn't help but frowned, and his heart became a little cold.

  For that "our Prime Minister" Dongsen Heya who has never been masked and has only seen it on TV and on posters at tram stations a few times, a trace of indescribable hatred has been added deep in his heart!

   Fortunately, the killer "Shadow" Feng Moluan disobeyed orders for the first time at the last moment and made "his own decision".

   It's just that after Feng Moluan was beheaded by Higashinohara, the mission failed and the children in the shelter survived.

  However, the problem now is that Nova, Yuni's sister, who was taken away by Feng Moluan in the morning, is still missing.

  Feng Moluan just silently took people away and handed them over to the person who took over, without knowing anything else.

  Perhaps he could know,

   Just don't want to know more.

  This makes the only information about Nova who is missing now is that she will be with two other 11-year-old children on the night of March 12th,

  That is, tomorrow night, it will be delivered to the Prime Minister’s official residence—a welcome dinner will be held at the Prime Minister’s official residence tomorrow night, and countless celebrities from all walks of life in Wano Country will attend.

  At that time, the Celestial Beings from Shangjing will also send people to the door to "inspect the goods". If they are satisfied, they will secretly pick up the goods and take them away to complete the transaction between them.

   want to save people,

   Tomorrow night seems to be the only chance.

   Just not to mention the strict security of the prime minister's official residence, there were even heaven and man in Beijing that night.

  From the dissection of Feng Moluan's character images, Higashinohara can probably guess

  The three old guys from Beijing this time are quite difficult to provoke. When they were young, they were even more terrifying than the eighth-level peak [S-rank adjudicator] of the Judgment Division.

  The main purpose of their visit to Wano Country this time is the blue [Boundary Gate] that has been promoted to the third level of blue in the sky tree and will be opened seven days after it was closed last time.

   Calculate the time,

   That is the afternoon of the day after tomorrow.

And if tomorrow night, the person attending the dinner at the Prime Minister's official residence to inspect the goods is one of the three old guys from Shangjing, then it may be difficult for Higashinohara to rescue Nova and the other two children. more difficult.

  Thinking of the innocent eleven-year-old girl Nova who was still immersed in her sleep when Feng Moran took her away that morning

  For a moment, Higashinohara's brows could not help but frown tightly.

no!

   It is still necessary to improve your own strength as much as possible!

  Thinking about this, Higashinohara's consciousness returned to the [Guilty Manual], and landed on the reward after completing the clearing task just now.

  Yesterday's Shadow's innate ability is very strong, but it seems to belong to the "summoning system".

  For a speed player like Higashinohara, with the time of the call, his knife would have already cut the opponent's face, and he obviously disassembled without thinking about it.

  【Do you confirm the decomposition? 】

【confirm】

   Higashinohara thought slightly.

  The next second, I saw the quicksand font of [Shadow of Yesterday] on the title page of the Guilty Manual's talent ability fall off and fly away, turning into countless blue particles, and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.

at the same time,

  The [Source Points] column at the bottom of the title page has changed, and there are 2 more source points.

  This is not bad.

   It just made Higashinohara a little bit miss the harvest of beheading strange demons in the lost **** world behind [Boundary Gate] at the beginning of the month.

   Right now, these two source points can be converted into 200 points of real skill proficiency, or invested in [Nine Eyes and Six Paths] for a gamble.

  It’s just that Higashinohara feels that the latter seems to be lacking. There may be a chance for five points of source power, and it is difficult to open another [Nine Eyes and Six Paths] with two points of source power.

In contrast, if it is converted into a real 200 points of proficiency, it can raise all the eighth-order three-sword style swords from elementary (0/10) to advanced (90/1000), which is undoubtedly for him. The most solid improvement in strength.

   And only after raising the skill level of the eighth-order three-sword style sword type, Higashinohara can explore the problem of combining Wugo one-sword style and three-sword style under the "abnormal state" of the next attribute surge.

  Thinking of this, Higashinohara no longer hesitated, and decisively converted two points of source power into 200 points of proficiency and added them all to the three-sword style sword model obtained from "Sword Emperor".

  In an instant, countless flashing pictures appeared in their minds, and there was a burst of sudden enlightenment in their hearts as if they were seeing the sun.

  The moment the point was added, Higashinohara only felt like a swordsman who had been immersed in the three-sword style for decades.

  If there are three knives in the hand,

  He was able to use the sword to defend the sword on the spot, pouring out all the three-sword style swords like his arms and fingers!

  Hoo-!

   took a deep breath.

   After recovering from that magical feeling and impulse, Higashinohara's eyes finally fell on the two attribute points that can be added freely.

  Among his current personal attributes, agility has reached 68.9. These two free attributes can just improve Higashinohara's agility to break through the 70-point mark in one fell swoop.

   At that time, his evaluation after panel attribute value may also be raised from [Normal] to [Medium].

  The 70-point permanent attribute is converted into an ability level according to the rules summarized by Higashinohara.

   It means that he will also break through the level of "superpower" and become an "absolutely capable person" above the seventh level.

  In this world-recognized statement,

  The "absolutely capable person" above the seventh level is a dividing line, the dividing line between human and "non-human".

   However next

  Just as Higashinohara was about to add all his 2 free attributes to the [Agility] attribute without hesitation, the thoughts in his head suddenly stopped slightly!

  Because Higashinohara discovered it unexpectedly.

  The "+" sign after his [Agility] attribute turned gray at some point.

   Gray means that points cannot be added!

   Higashinohara couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

what's going on? !

   Ask for a ticket lol~
