Chapter 39: Sinking Sea (6)
What Gray handed to her was a record of Guiyi’s daily schedule. The CEO has a strong sense of time. He pursues perfection, is highly self-disciplined and does not allow any deviation. He is used to keeping everything under control within a known range.
To put it nicely, it is called efficient self-discipline, to put it bluntly, it is called stubbornness. Guiyi hates variables outside the plan, especially uncontrollable factors. He claims to be against violence, but his first choice is to use tough measures.
Of course, the night watch is not just to kill him. She wants Guiyi to witness the collapse of the order he is proud of.
She wants his collapse and madness.
Of course, this was just an irrational idea. After all, she still had a lot to do. She would plan step by step, and finally stand in front of Guiyi alive to destroy him.
"You'd better not go to the Judgment Tower." Hui knew a little bit of the inside story. He knew that he was forced to stay in the Judgment Tower during the days of vigil because of the requirements of other executive officers. This was a disguised questioning and test. It seemed that they still did not trust this black-haired executive.
Any disturbance could become a "reason".
Gray couldn't help but remind her: "The capital has planted quite a few spies in the Judgment Tower. It may be a bit cruel for me to say this, but I think you also know that no matter what happens to Turquoise, you must not show up and don't show any abnormality."
He seemed to be worried, but Shouye just reacted calmly and told him not to worry, and burned the information in his hand.
"Where is Makisuke?"
The Inspection Office was not under Guiyi's management, so she could use her abilities at will. So she simply returned to Eleanor's body, manipulated the executive officer of another identity to solve new anomalies, and distractedly talked to the observer: "I always feel that something bad will happen tonight."
"A lot has happened." The observer hesitated and did not say anything more. He silently released the updated content of the comics, and then quickly dived and hid. "Makisuke should still be in the library."
Eleanor did not pursue the observer's strange attitude, nor did she think about the two words "still" that seemed to be a reminder.
But she will soon understand what the observer means.
She did not check the last update directly. She originally planned to pile up a few more words and read them together later, but it seems that it is not possible at the moment.
The new chapter jumps directly to the decision-making part of the Internal Council Hall of the Inspection House. Makusuke was very calm from beginning to end. The luxurious decoration, noble power, and malicious gazes, he was far away from all of these, and they were completely different.
The young man who was deprived of the right to speak just recalled his teacher at an inappropriate time.
[What are you doing, old thief? The teacher can only appear in the flashback part now, right (smile)?]
[Deng Deng, what are you doing? ! Bao, you have been operating too frequently recently! ]
[It can't be helped. The blood pressure is rising straight up. Is it a big deal to have power and influence to bully our Deng Deng! 】
【I feel even more sad when I think that the teacher may have also experienced these things. TT can't breathe】
【They are all big shots here, the background and power estimation of the final BOSS. By the way, the decoration style of the inspection institute is really extravagant and inhumane】
He suddenly raised his head, and his eyes fell directly to a certain place.
The camera swept along, catching the exposed thin ankles, as if wandering along the slender legs, outlining the perfect body wrapped in the uniform. His skin color is a cold pale, which fits the executive himself very well, indifferent and arrogant.
Blood flows in his eyes, melted into exquisite crystals, and like deep red coral.
Every stroke is carefully painted.
【Brother, you smell so good】
【Are you biased, old thief! I feel like the executive officer’s style is on a different level from everyone else’s. Oh my god, he’s so handsome.]
[God damn it, you human trafficker! I recognized him right away as my long-missing husband!]
[So handsome! I can’t stand it anymore, I’ll punch the earth to pieces!] [
So embarrassing! I’m crazy, this shot is like grabbing the executive officer’s legs and sitting on him, and then personally drawing his eyebrows and eyes… ahhhh, I’m going crazy, old thief, did you sign up for a book class to learn! ! 】
【Ancient Greek god who controls storyboards (affirmation)
The decision of other people's lives is not worth mentioning to him. The executive officer half-closed his eyes as if he was distracted. Makusuke was contrary to his usual behavior and still stared at him stubbornly. This abnormality attracted the attention of the people around him, and their teasing eyes turned to the ruler of the Eternal Daylight District.
The calm and leisurely executive still ignored it, but still revealed a little annoyance.
【I slack off in class belike】
【Wake up, you are not that handsome】
【It's so strange, why is Deng Deng staring at the executive? Although I think he is very handsome, he is not the kind of person that the protagonist of a hot-blooded comic would fall in love with at first sight (】
【What? Deng Deng fell in love with the executive?】
[What? The old thief is drawing male ketone? ]
[Shut up, stop spreading rumors and ruining the atmosphere!! ]
[I came here just because I smelled the smell. Red and blue have always been a perfect match. This pair of eyes matches well. Let’s go! ]
He didn’t remember what happened after that.
Makisuke obediently accepted the arrangement and entered the Judgment Tower. He gave a lecture to his fellow inmates who were trying to dominate him, and then he came to the lobby according to the schedule. He was very calm from beginning to end, until he saw the familiar The calm expression of the person who was watching him was slightly cracked.
The gray-haired woman was surrounded by people and walked forward. She was like a star surrounded by people, and she easily won everyone's admiration.
Her eyes passed by casually, and when they looked at each other for a moment, it seemed that it was just his illusion. Before Makisuke could even react, she had gone far away. Only the pyramid pattern with the prefix of the number left a cold memory point.
Makisuke had to turn to ask the people around him.
[Rebirth: Those Years When I Was a Boss in Prison]
[Oh my god, this kind of being surrounded by everyone but not caring at all, this kind of laziness that is essentially arrogant, I was stunned by my sister's handsomeness]
[So hot, so hot, my wife, I can't live without you]
[! The people next to the umbrella sister are all so good-looking! ! ]
[Deng Deng asked the previous person and still looked impatient. As soon as my baby opened his mouth, not only did his expression change, but he also explained a lot. Is our hot-blooded comic protagonist going to change and become a fan of everyone? (Sad]
[It seems that Deng Deng has always been very popular, but this change seems very deliberate, as if the old thief deliberately drew it]
[P.G., there must be some secrets about Deng Deng that we don't know yet]
Eleanor always felt that something was wrong, so she simply skipped a few contents and went straight to the part she wanted.
Not surprisingly, Makisuke discovered the existence of "Weird".
The weird thing was that it was because Weird ran into the prison, and there had never been such an exception in the Judgment Tower before.
... Makisuke's physique was indeed a bit weird, and Eleanor even wondered if the "world" had brought all possible accidents to him.
The dark substance squeezed into the room along the broken gap, and the mist took advantage of the situation to spread, devouring all the flesh and bones, not even willing to let go of despair, leaving only a pool of blood. No one could tell what it was, a mist gathering with malicious intent or a pool of surging water.
But Makisuke could feel it staring at him, even smiling, with greed in its eyes. It was creepy
.
He had to run, he had to leave here, or he would die!
The alarm for danger had never been so sharp, the nauseating urge to vomit overwhelmed his nerves, the oxygen was sucked out until he suffocated in the eye contact, his pupils trembled and reflected the approaching shadow of the black mist, attack or escape, thinking became difficult, and in the end, only a blank was left. What
was that thing, an alien? A monster? !
"Please make way."
A low, mellow and elegant voice like classical string music suddenly sounded, taking him away from extreme fear. Makisuke came back to his senses abruptly, and he didn't care about the cold sweat all over his body. He was on guard.
There were so many people in the hall at that time that he naturally couldn't remember them one by one, but this person was sitting in the center of the podium, and his status and position were immediately apparent. How could he not remember it.
"'Weird' is different from those garbage in the 15th District." The young chief in a neat uniform was full of nobility. The black mist turned into ashes and completely annihilated at his fingertips. He lowered his eyes to look at Makisuke.
That look was full of coldness.
Extreme arrogance and contempt, revealing a disdain that didn't care much, but also a little confusion.
The smile on his face is very similar to Eleanor's.
[I knock on the handsome guy!]
[So handsome, so handsome, so handsome. Sorry, Deng Deng, I have to go to the capital for something urgent (quickly runs away)
[Although, I think the incident in the conference hall has nothing to do with him! I can suddenly forgive him!!]
"The key belongs to the library."
The man's words caught him off guard. Makisuke tightened the delicate key in his palm and listened to the man slowly completing the rest of the sentence: "I can take you there."
The tone of command left no room for questioning.
He did not give any chance to refuse, or perhaps he did not even think about other people's reactions, that was not what he needed to consider.
Makisuke was forcibly transported to the library, and several books fell on his face. He took it in a panic, and the other party leisurely pulled out another book from the bookshelf and threw it on the pile of books he was holding, without even blinking his eyelids, "These are all, take a look."
"What...?"
"The kind of monster you saw tonight is called 'weird' in the capital." Cecil patiently explained. He slammed the last book down and looked at him coldly. "All the information about 'weird' is here."
High-level awakeners simply cannot bear the direct gaze of the predator, not to mention that he deliberately did not hold his breath. Makisuke could not control his fear, breathing was difficult, and his body was shaking. He gritted his teeth and refused to kneel down, just standing there. Cecil
stared at him for a long time before he finally stopped making it difficult. There was a hint of interest in his eyes. "It is indeed her student."
[? ? Wait, who are you talking about? ? ]
[Know the teacher? The teacher's friend in the capital? ]
[Why do I feel like this person and the teacher are old enemies... my illusion]
[Ahhhh please tell me where the teacher is or I'll kneel down and beg you TT]
His heartbeat almost stopped, and the urgency even outweighed his fear. All his strength was drained away at once, and the books were scattered all over the floor. But Makusuke had no time to pay attention, and he almost couldn't even utter complete sentences when he spoke: "Do you know my teacher?"
"Is she okay?"
Something bad is going to happen. Eleanor made a decision without hesitation when she saw this. Although she didn't know why Cecil suddenly appeared in the Judgment Tower and "kindly" took Makisuke to the library, he definitely guessed her plan.
The reasons and processes are no longer important. Eleanor has always only cared about the results. She went straight to the library.
As long as it does not affect his interests, Cecil is completely willing to wade into this muddy water. He has always been keen on overturning established plans just to get more excitement and pleasure from it.
His behavior is unpredictable.
The sharp dagger clenched in his palm Stabbing the chief's heart, Cecil took a book from the bookshelf and put it in front of him. His behavior was elegant and casual. He smiled leisurely, "It's not very polite to interrupt others suddenly, and I haven't told him what's really important."
Eleanor just turned around and looked at Makisuke. The young man was really dazzled by her gaze. When he reacted, he was already standing in the dim corridor.
The door of the library was silent and closed. Makisuke closed and opened his hand holding the key, and he could not see anything through the barrier. He remembered her look without any emotion, and hesitated to move again.
He didn't open the door in the end.
"Why don't you tell him?" Cecil knew that Makisuke was outside the door, and he also knew that Eleanor blocked the sound. He threw down the book, "If he... oh, and those companions of yours in Tracing Source, wouldn't it be more convenient for you to just let them know?"
Let Tracing Source cooperate with her plan, and any mistake will lead to a desperate situation.
Cecil didn't want her to use Tracing Source as simply as that, he simply wanted to send Tracing Source to a dead end.
"The new organization founded by Black Goat is doing very well, and can provide you with more help than Tracing Source." Cecil seemed to really put himself in her shoes and suggested, "Those people are just a burden."
"Isn't that right? "
Yes, it's still the same. Just because it's interesting.
Just like he agreed to her cooperation proposal four years ago, just because he was tired of the corruption and silence of the imperial capital.
"I hate other people telling me what to do, don't you know?"
It was annoying.
Eleanor pinched his neck and looked at him coldly. Their relationship was a partnership that walked on the same steel wire, but it was also mixed with deep disgust. It was a tangled and twisted definition.
The most suitable partners, enemies with different ideas, the only thing they are not is close companions.
"How could I forget."
Cecil had no intention of fighting, he let her tighten her grip, and laughed wantonly, "But what are you angry about? Because of a bunch of trash?"
"Interesting, really interesting, I really didn't expect that one day I would see such an emotional side of Executive Yongtian."
"It seems that you still care about tracing the source, so what should I do, if everything goes well, of course there is no problem, but what if you lose in the end." The snake-shaped tail ring on his index finger was vivid and alive, as if it would reveal its sharp fangs in the next second, ready to pounce on the prey in the trap at any time.
Cecil smiled, "I will kill them all before I find the tracing base in the imperial capital."
Then he escaped perfectly.
Crazy.
"Do you think you can just stay out of this?"
The ruby inlaid in the ring flashed with a dangerous luster, just like her beautiful eyes.
"If this situation really happens, I will take you to death with me."
"So you can rest assured."
