Chapter 139: Captives × 3

After dealing with one of the two men, the remaining woman in a dress and holding a small umbrella was obviously not very good at physical skills. Because she was originally standing very close to the man, Ace quickly took down her second blood.

The two guild members currently on board are now their captives.

The goal of the Port Mafia this time was to cause sabotage, to give the Guild a warning and to make a statement, so they were originally planning to fire a shot and run away, but now there are two survivors, and Ace doesn't know how to deal with it.

So he looked at the other two people who came with him to see what they thought. As a result, one of them frowned and didn't know how to deal with it, while the other didn't say anything at all, with a cold expression as if he didn't hear anything.

Seeing that he couldn't offer any suggestions here, Ace made another call to someone who could offer suggestions.

Mori Ou was extremely surprised when he received the call.

He never thought that letting Ace out to wreak havoc would yield such rewards!

He immediately said, "Bring him back! Bring him back and send him directly to the interrogation room!"

What a beautiful thing!

You know, he just met with Nakahara Chuuya who just got off the plane today an hour ago. From him, he learned that the Guild didn't just come by cruise ship this time, but secretly sent an airship to Yokohama. It is said that it is an aerial fortress that can make itself invisible.

According to Guild's plan, the huge aerial fortress will probably be destroyed in Yokohama City.

Although I don't understand what the Guild leader was thinking when he came up with such a plan, neither the Port Mafia, the Armed Detective Agency, nor the Yokohama government would let such a thing happen.

Of course, how did Chuuya Nakahara, who had just returned from Europe, know about the Guild's plan to come to Yokohama from the United States, thousands of miles away? When Moriogai asked about it, we could tell who told him the truth by looking at his hesitant attitude.

Dazai Osamu knew that the Armed Detective Agency alone could not solve the problem, so he wanted to use the power of others.

What they needed now was the location of the aerial fortress. Besides that, it would be best if they could get information about other Guild members from the two captured people.

Intelligence on people with special abilities has always been valuable, otherwise the demon wouldn't have pretended to be caught just to get a list of people with special abilities belonging to the Port Mafia.

Today was probably a good day. In the morning, two Guild users with special abilities were captured and sent to the interrogation room. In the afternoon, Akutagawa Ryunosuke called and told me that they had also captured a Guild user with special abilities.

This time, Mori Ogai had already discussed the cooperation with the Guild on the day when Akutagawa Ryunosuke came to visit him. The Port Mafia would attack the Guild's ships parked in the port to distract the Guild's attention and energy, while the Asuka Pirates would use Nakajima Atsushi himself as bait to lure the Guild's people.

The only thing that Mori Ouwai didn't expect was that the Guild would be so bold and reckless that they not only attacked in the street, but also involved ordinary people.

The psychic captured by the Vermillion Pirates was not handed over to the Port Mafia, but was locked up at home and left to Lovecraft to guard. Anyway, he was strong and didn't like to go out, so guarding was just a matter of convenience. At worst, he would just sit next to the captive and watch the show.

In the final analysis, the relationship between the Asuka Pirates and the Port Mafia is just a cooperative one. At most, one side is stronger and the other is weaker. There is no subordination. The Asuka Pirates are not obliged to hand over the people they capture to the Port Mafia unless the Port Mafia offers them something in exchange.

Lucy, with her right hand tied with a long iron chain handcuff, sat in the corner of the living room of the Akutagawa residence, watching the members of the Asuka Pirates bring her back and then sit in a circle in the living room to discuss how to deal with her.

Their appeal is to resolve the 7 billion bounty on Nakajima Atsushi.

This bounty is too high for them, and the enemies they will attract will be beyond their current capabilities. It is not like the bounties offered by organizations from other countries when they went to sea before, which were uneven, and because they were small in number, the bounties were not very high. Only Akutagawa Ryunosuke was a psychic, and Lovecraft was also a psychic in the eyes of the outside world, so the bounties for them were relatively high.

But that is far less than Nakajima Atsushi's 7 billion.

This high bounty is far from the actual strength of the person being bountied, and it may bring them unsolvable troubles. Akutagawa Ryunosuke is the captain, and he must first solve the problem that may lead to the annihilation of the pirate group.

If they can't solve the problem peacefully, then they'll just have to nuclear the person who asked the question :)

Zuo Jing turned his head and glanced at Lucy, and made a suggestion: "Tell me, if we take this woman to exchange conditions with their leader, will they cancel the bounty for Dun?"

Lucy's eyes widened immediately. "Impossible! Don't be kidding! The leader will never compromise for me!"

The Guild was just a place that took her in when she had nowhere else to go. Leader Francis took her in only because he saw her special abilities. Strictly speaking, the relationship between them was just that of a boss and an employee. There was no deep friendship between the team members in the organization.

What value could she have if she was captured by the enemy? The traditional American ideology is that the strong prey on the weak. She could have been fired directly in her situation, but she was exchanged? What a joke!

Yukawa Hiko was a little unconvinced. He frowned and asked doubtfully, "No way? Aren't you a person with special abilities?"

He knew how valuable people with special abilities were, and the leader of the port mafia had always wanted to poach their captain.

Lucy pouted, "What's wrong with people with special abilities? There are so many people with special abilities in the United States, and there are many people in the organization who are more powerful than me. For someone like me who fails in a mission, I guess I can just give up."

Zuo Jing looked at her suspiciously: "You didn't say that on purpose because you didn't want us to take advantage of you, did you?"

Nakajima Atsushi, who had just finished cooking dinner and brought it out, saw Lucy glaring at Sakyo: "Who lied to you!"

He hadn't heard anything before and didn't know what was going on now, so he just quietly distributed dinner to everyone.

"Thank you." Fei Niao took the bowl and spoon and analyzed, "It's not necessarily a lie. The United States is controlled by capitalists. As long as you have money, you can find as many people with special abilities as you want. If this one doesn't work, there are still other ones. If you don't want to come, then forget it. There are plenty of people who will." She sighed and concluded, "Typical thinking of rich people."

"Then we arrested her for nothing?!" the youngest boy in the group screamed, and then glanced at Nakajima Atsushi who was walking towards him, and said unhappily, "And we still have to feed her--"

He took the bowl, took a look at the dinner, and had no appetite. He complained casually: "A Dun, can you try something different next time? I think curry rice or white rice as a side dish is good. We can't just keep eating rice soaked in tea, right?"

Nakajima Atsushi, who loves rice soaked in tea so much that he wants to eat it every day, said a little embarrassedly: "Well, I'll try it next time."

Akutagawa Gin curled his lips and smiled.

Jiuya, who had been listening to everyone's speeches calmly, finally spoke up. He smiled and said, "How can you say that the arrest was in vain? With one less person with special abilities, it will be a little easier for us to overthrow the Guild. Moreover, even if we can't use it, we can sell it to the Port Mafia or sell it to the Special Ability Agent Division through the Armed Detective Agency."

After they returned to Japan, they actually had quite a lot of contact with the Armed Detective Agency. After all, their guardian, Kosuke, who was very familiar with them and was now in elementary school, worked there. And this time, two people from the Armed Detective Agency were captured and taken to the alien space by Lucy's ability. One of them was not very familiar to them, but the other was Kosuke's guardian, Oda Sakunosuke!

Lucy: “…”

Damn! Aren’t you even more ruthless than them?

Lucy knew very well that no matter which of these two organizations fell into her hands, she would not have an easy life.

At least the Guild is a legitimate business organization on the surface, but the Port Mafia... well, you can tell from the name. If I fall into their hands, I'm afraid they will squeeze out all my value and throw me away. After all, I was once a captive, so it's not a big deal if I die.

Not to mention the Yokohama government. She's a foreigner and a person with special abilities. The organization she belongs to is still targeting Yokohama. If she falls into their hands, she will at least be under close supervision.

She stared at the bowl that was handed to her after everyone had been served dinner. After hesitating for a while, she finally reached out to take it.

Forget it. Why should I bother with my stomach?

She has no loyalty to the organization, but is psychologically and habitually afraid of being driven away and abandoned.

Most people with special abilities have an unhappy childhood, and it is not uncommon for this to continue into adolescence or young adulthood. After all, there are people who are unhappy throughout their lives because of their special abilities. She is just one of the less unfortunate ones.

Kuya turned to look at Akutagawa Ryunosuke who was drinking soup with rice, "Captain? What do you think?"

"We need to find the Guild leader first. If he refuses to talk, we'll use force."

…

At 8:30 in the evening, Ace, who was in control of the body, received a call from the colonel on Moriogai's cell phone.

"Yo, good evening."

[…It’s Mr. Ace.] The colonel had been in the United States for so long that he obviously didn’t remember the date of the leader’s exchange. After realizing that it was Ace who spoke to him, he paused and continued, [Mr. Ace, I have found the relatives of the girl that your student asked me to look up.]

Ai Si wondered, "Then why don't you just call Ryunosuke directly?"

The colonel was silent for a while, then he said: [The girl's identity is not simple, and recently... I think it's better to let the leader know about this matter first. ]

Ace nodded and followed suit: "Well, go ahead, Mr. Ouwai is listening too."

So he said: [It is like this, our people have found out that the girl is basically the daughter of the Guild leader.]

Mori Ogai, who was listening in: !! ?
