Chapter 18 Kidnapping Alice

Are you willing to accept salvation from the evil one?

Silence spread between the two of them. After a while, Dazai Osamu sneered.

His eyes were filled with gloom. "Ha, what do you mean by save... You can say this word so easily. Are you an idiot? This is ridiculous. Who can you save?"

Ace thought seriously, "I don't know, but it's true. I couldn't even save myself, so it's only natural that people would call me an idiot." He laughed, "I can't just ignore my companions' words, and I'm just responsible for extending my hand. Those who want to be saved will naturally hold it."

But a companion is different from other people. If he wants to make someone rot in the mud, he will drag him out even if he has to!

Just like when he was taken to the execution platform, even though everyone knew that this was a conspiracy against the Whitebeard Pirates, and even though he didn't want anyone to take risks to save him, no one gave up on him.

Dazai Osamu obviously didn't realize the domineering thoughts behind Ace's words. He looked at Ace with an incredible look, "Didn't you just say you were a pirate? Pirates are such bad guys?"

"...Ah?" Ace looked confused. "I, a good person?"

Seeing that he did not look hypocritical, Dazai Osamu fell into a strange silence for a while.

He looked at him with an indescribable look.

Does this guy actually think from the bottom of his heart that he is a bad person?

He frowned and said sarcastically in a tone that he himself didn't know what he was feeling: "A real bad guy wouldn't say something like you."

He had seen countless rotten people and countless darkness, and he was increasingly confused about the meaning of life. Good people were like this, as were bad people. They either lived for the sake of living, or for the sake of power and desire. But what was the meaning of living itself?

Ace suddenly laughed, "Haha, are you saying I'm a good person? This is the first time I've heard someone say I'm a good person!"

Dazai Osamu: “…”

He let go of his expression, looked at the surface of the Tsurumi River, and suddenly asked, "What about you? Do you want to be a good person or a bad person?"

Ha, even if you want to be a good person, now that you are in Mr. Mori's body, you can only be a bad person.

He thought maliciously.

But Ace's answer was beyond his expectations again -

"Ah? Good guy or bad guy? I haven't thought about it. Anyway, isn't it okay to just do what I want to do?" Ace's concept in this regard is quite open-minded. "I don't want to be a good guy or a bad guy. There are things that good guys can't do, right? Bad guys seem to be confined to some kind of box... But I'm a free pirate. I can do whatever I want. As long as I'm happy, that's enough!"

“…”

Dazai Osamu was just about to say something to mock him, but when he turned around, he was met with a pair of dark and mocking eyes. His face immediately lost all expression and the desire to speak. In the end, he just let out a "tsk".

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's time for me to come out." Mori Ogai looked at him with a subtle smile.

Dazai glanced at him and said, "There's no such thing as disappointment. Both Mr. Mori and he are equally annoying."

"He'll be sad to hear you say that."

[Ah? I feel fine actually?]

Mori Ou pretended not to hear.

Sometimes you have to learn to ignore what he says :)

"Ah, will you be sad? That's great." Dazai Osamu read with an expressionless face.

"Come to think of it, I was surprised that he counseled you like this today. I thought he would take you directly to see a psychiatrist. He was the one who first suggested taking you to see a psychiatrist. Zhijun, he really cares about you. I am a little jealous."

Although he said this, there was a mocking expression on his face.

Dazai Osamu couldn't stand his smiling face, so he immediately made a vomiting gesture to him.

"Go and see for yourself if you want. I'm leaving now."

Sen Ouwai looked at his leaving back, with a slight smile on his face.

【Is he angry? 】

"Well, I'm shy."

…

During this period, surveillance in Yokohama was not very common, or rather, because the official jurisdiction was extremely weak and there were many armed forces in the city, the coverage of surveillance was close to zero.

So even if there was a period of time when Ace couldn't release Alice because of Dazai Osamu's special ability, as long as Mori Ogai brought Alice with him when he returned, and Alice didn't show her inhuman side, other people would not think that Alice was not human.

Although Morio praised Omi for her patience, if nothing was done, the situation would only become increasingly unfavorable for Omi, so they had to find a breakthrough as soon as possible.

When Mori Owl received the news from the hunter "Omi is preparing to attack Alice", Hirotsu Liulang was taking Alice out for a stroll.

At that time, Mori Ogai was having dinner in the office.

"Finally you're ready to take action." Mori Ogai sighed, "But it will be you, Ace, who will take over the body in a while. Ace, are you okay?"

He had never asked Ace to perform any important tasks for him. This time, Omi happened to catch up with Ace when he was about to control his body. He was a little worried that Ace would let him down. After all, Ace's daily behavior was a little erratic.

...No, it's quite out of tune.

[I'm fine!] Ace's voice seemed a little eager to try, [Don't worry! I promise to help you beat that Omi!]

"No, this is still a bit..."

I can't feel at ease at all!

He is the leader! Isn't it the subordinates' job to blow things up? ? The subordinates should be on the front line of the battle!

[I am very strong! ]

...I feel even more worried!

Although Mori Ougai was not very confident in leaving things to Ace, after dusk, he had to leave things to Ace.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Hirotsu Liulang urgently contacted Mori Gugai, saying that Miss Alice was missing. Ace followed Mori Gugai's instructions and sent several teams to search for Alice all over Yokohama.

At around ten o'clock in the evening, someone below urgently delivered a letter. Ace took the letter and opened it. It said that the GSS had kidnapped Alice. If he wanted her to go back alive, he would have to bring detailed information about the two smuggling routes to exchange with them. The location would be determined by them at that time. No one with special abilities was allowed, and the number of people allowed was limited to ten.

The last point is GSS's "sincerity". Although this "sincerity" does not seem to be sincere at all.

The letter also came with a mobile phone that could only be used for one-way communication.

[Ah... Is this a blatant operation by GSS? ]

But without super powers... GSS probably never dreamed that Alice, who was captured by them, was a super power. If you want him to take risks personally, you have to specifically ask a super power person to go:)

However, since the other party said so, Randou, Ozaki Kouyo and Hirotsu Yanami could not be brought with them. They were all famous esper in the organization. Even if the outside world didn't know, Omi must have a list of them, and it was not difficult for the GSS that cooperated with Omi to know.

At nearly eleven o'clock, the mobile phone sent by GSS rang.

After Ace answered the call, a man's voice came from the other side: [Good night, Chief Mori.]

Ace asked directly: "What do you want?"

There was silence on the other side, as if they thought the question was a joke. The mobile phones were sent by GSS, and they also sent a letter stating that Alice was in their hands, and the terms of the exchange were clearly written, so it was clear who the call was from and why!

The person on the other side seemed to take a deep breath, and then said: [Chief Sen, there is no need to talk about this in a roundabout way, right? Or do you mean that you don't care about your daughter's life or death? ]

Alice's last muffled groan came through the phone.

[Ace, show some anxiety.] Mori Ogai said.

Ace recalled the feeling he had when he heard the Pirate Queen secretly convey to him in Pushin Castle that his brother had sneaked into Pushin Castle to rescue him. His tone immediately became a little anxious: "What do you want? Where is Alice!?"

Mori Ogai: Hmm... although it seems to be a little short of perfection, it should be enough to deal with GSS who don’t understand him.

[Leibo Street East, please go there first, and we will give you directions in real time. ]

Sen Ouwai's heart sank slightly when he heard this.

Leibo Street is the weakest place for all forces in Yokohama. It is also the poorest and most backward place in the whole Yokohama. Street surveillance is impossible. If they want to point out the direction to him in real time, it can only mean that they have deployed people along the street. Moreover, Leibo Street is relatively closed and will be more vigilant against outsiders. In this case, it will be difficult for Morioga to secretly bring more people in.

Lan Tang can hide in the space, but he must show up at the port mafia building to avoid arousing the other party's vigilance.

But, no one said that he had to go, right?

【Agree to him first. 】

"Okay, I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, Mori Ogai immediately asked Ace to call Guangjin Liulang and the public relations officer over.

The PR officer also has another identity as an actor on the surface, and he is a very famous one. This is a quick cash cow, and the port mafia also cherishes it very much.

Because he was well-known in the outside world, ordinary people did not dare to take action against him easily, and in order to prevent the official from having an excuse to ban him, the Port Mafia would not let him directly carry out underground tasks. Most of the time, his task was to obtain intelligence from some upper-class people for the Port Mafia, catch their handles, or secretly facilitate the members who were carrying out the tasks.

The main reason why he was chosen for this mission was because of his good makeup skills.

He disguised Guangjin Liulang, who was of similar height and build to him, as him, and then disguised him as Guangjin Liulang. As long as no one familiar with him looked at him closely, there would be no flaws.

After sending Hirotsu Liulang to Raibo Street with the radio sent by GSS and ten guerrillas directly under the leader, Mori Ogai asked Ozaki Koyo to keep an eye on the public relations officer just in case, and secretly summoned Randou and a person with the ability to control light.

As long as these people with special abilities do not appear in Raibo Street, even if their actions are abnormal, the other side will only increase their vigilance.

After all, their goal is to go to Mori Ogai in Raibo Street, and if these people with special abilities do not appear in Raibo Street, it will not affect their plan.

The hunter sent new intelligence that Omi has sent some armed personnel to Raymond Street. Omi himself is currently in a villa in the Yamate residential area south of the Harbor Bridge.

[Remote command, that's really great.] Mori Ou sighed.

Now is the perfect time to surround him.
