Chapter 75 Serious Thoughts
Judy didn't know that she had already passed by the organization's second-in-command [Rum]. She only knew that she finally got the contact information of the target person [Umekawa Kuko] and added him as a friend.
Such an important mission naturally cannot be carried out by Judy alone. Other FBI agents are on standby nearby and reporting the situation on the scene in real time. At the same time, they are also observing pedestrians on nearby streets to be alert to dangerous situations.
"Wait a moment!"
At this moment, Shuichi Akai, who was standing behind the witness, suddenly contracted his pupils and pointed at the upper left corner of one of the small surveillance squares.
"Zoom in, zoom in again on this area."
The camera was zoomed in as much as possible, so that in the end only two blurry human figures crossing the road could be seen.
But even with such a blurry color block, you can still see the short white hair of the shorter human-shaped color block, as well as the extremely conspicuous crimson block on the short white hair.
James immediately ordered, "A5-7, follow the person with short white hair and red highlights at your 11 o'clock position. We may have found traces of 'Li Mei'!"
Shuichi Akai contacted Judy, who was about to retreat: "The plan has changed. Keep an eye on [Umekawa Kuko]."
If [Umekawa Kuko] does not behave abnormally, then it means that [Rime]'s appearance was not arranged by her, and this is not fishing.
If [Umekawa Kuko] intends to reunite with Rimei, then we'll see what to do next.
"Ah—I'm so full." So Judy had to think of an excuse urgently, "Why don't we go for a walk together to help digest the food, Miss Umekawa?"
Judy's hairstyle covers her ears, so even if she wears a hidden earphone on one ear, it will not be noticed, because human vision and hearing have limits.
But the Cheng Xiaoyu in front of her was not a human, and the number 233 on Cheng Xiaoyu's body was not even a living thing. These two guys had already heard the message in Judy's earphones thoroughly, and were now very happy to cooperate with Judy in acting.
"Sure, I heard there will be fireworks on the commercial street tonight."
The FBI isn't the only one waiting for the right moment to close the net.
......
"Himi Shiori, 20, disappeared two years ago. Her family reported the case to the police."
On the premise that Toru Amuro reported to the Neon Public Security Bureau in advance, the FBI quickly retrieved the information of his incarnation through Rimei's facial scan.
"According to her family, Himami Shiori was in a coma and had been lying in bed for two months before she disappeared. They all believe Himami Shiori was kidnapped, but they haven't received any ransom messages."
James: "Why is she unconscious?"
The investigator said, "I don't know. The description is that she went out one day and suddenly collapsed on the street. She wasn't found until the next morning by a passerby jogging and called the police. She was then taken to the hospital, but they couldn't find the cause of the disease."
It would have been fine if there was no facial recognition search, but this search revealed that Himami Shiori's appearance was actually natural, and she has been appearing in various places in teams of two with different people with this appearance for the past two years without any hesitation in front of cameras.
After looking through the information, Edogawa Conan said: "The person next to Himi Shiori was also reported missing by her family two months ago, and the people who appeared with Himi Shiori before were also missing."
These missing people have different family backgrounds, genders, personalities, places of disappearance, time of disappearance, body shapes and occupations. There is no pattern except that the time of disappearance is getting closer and closer. Moreover, they are not "non-existent people" using false identities. They have families and friends, many of whom have not given up looking for them.
However, these missing people appeared together with Himi Shiori, who also disappeared two years ago. This can no longer be described as "suspicious" but "weird".
[Umekawa Kuko] mentioned that "Noose" has extremely advanced disguise skills, and changes his identity every once in a while... Could it be that those missing people were killed by "Noose" and then replaced?
At this moment, the A5-7 camera that had been following Rimei suddenly went black and lost the picture. Before the communication was cut off, the agent's shrill screams were heard from the other side.
"Agent Tom!?" James ordered immediately, "Go support Agent Tom immediately!"
......
"Lehu, why did you suddenly burn his hand? Humans are very fragile. Look, he's almost fainted from the pain, and I still need to question him later." The cursed spirit, whose appearance was infinitely similar to that of a human, but with long blue hair and prominent seams all over his body, complained. "And you made a lot of noise. His screams just now may have been heard by others. The people behind him should be here soon."
"Tsk, I've held back, otherwise you'd be looking at nothing but a pile of black charcoal," the volcano-shaped cursed spirit said disdainfully. "How could I have known that an ordinary person without even any cursed power was spying on us? Hey, what do we do with this guy?"
The pitch-black tent that separated ordinary people unfolded, and a woman with stitches on her forehead and a sleeping white cat coiled on her head was carried by Li Mei through the window. "Hey, Leaky Pot, couldn't you have said something before you took action? I can't catch up with you in this body."
Leakage Pot: "That's why I asked you to come and take a look. This body is considered well-trained for an ordinary human. Although it's far inferior to that of a sorcerer, it's still better than your current body. After the questioning, whether you use this body or give it to the Nine Phases Diagram as a flesh, it won't be wasted."
"Thank you, you really..." Before the noose could stand firm, a sharp long strip of metal pierced through the white cat and its crown from top to bottom.
"Thank you, that's so thoughtful of you. Standing in such an orderly manner saves me a lot of trouble."
Amid the screams of the one-eyed white cat, the black-haired man with a scar on the corner of his mouth grinned and continued to thrust the cylindrical metal in his hand downwards, nailing the one-eyed white cat, who was trying to struggle and was absorbed by the metal needle with a strange pattern, even more tightly. At the same time, he kicked Rimei, who was trying to attack, in front of the clepsydra to help him take a fire spell.
"Don't bother me, I've been waiting for this moment for ten years!"
The one-eyed white cat's struggle did not last long. With a final shrill, incomprehensible scream, it turned into a streak of white light and was absorbed by the strange metal needle and completely expelled from this world, without even a single hair left.
Ten years ago, the tyrant's unintentional act gave the noose, which had been dormant for nearly a thousand years, a golden opportunity.
Ten years later, the tyrant Tianyu personally took back this unexpected gift he had given.
At the same time, the blue-haired Curse Spirit's hand was about to touch Fushiguro Shigeru's arm, and the inaction transformation was about to take effect, turning the man in front of him into a tumor.
But when the real person's hand was about to touch the target, a blue arm suddenly stretched out from the surrounding shadows and clamped the real person tightly. Then countless black and flexible black silk threads shot out from the shadows and tied up the real person, Louhu and Li Mei so that they could not move.
Before anyone else could react, the unconscious agent lying on the ground was suddenly swallowed by the shadow beneath him.
"To be honest, I actually advocate letting people with grievances and debts resolve their own problems. The work manual also requires that we try not to interfere with local developments..."
Cheng Xiaoyu, with blue skin and red eyes, used a horse talisman to heal the unconscious agent's body, then walked out of the shadows and healed Fushiguro Shier's wound that had just been caused by Rimei's ice spell.
"But my allies are freaking dying to help me. If I don't take action now, who am I?"
Only then did Louhu and Rimei realize that the black threads were actually the hair of a creature shaped like a woman. Her powers, similar to cursed energy, and inhuman appearance made Louhu, who had no idea about visitors from other worlds, mistake her for one of his own kind. Furious, his head erupted like a volcano, and he roared, "Ghost Queen, you are actually a cursed spirit. Why are you siding with humans?"
Seeing that the greatest possibility of his beloved master Sukuna's resurrection had been dashed, Rimei was furious: "How dare you destroy the hope of Sukuna-sama's resurrection!"
"When you think about it, I want to laugh. If you're in such a hurry to classify me, why don't you first assign yourself a kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species?"
Cheng Xiaoyu held the crystal ball and tried to help the FBI agent in the shadow blur the painful memory of his recent injury, without even looking at the cursed spirit.
"And you, don't be sad, your buddy will soon be burnt. I mean the burnt-out kind. Although Sukuna's meat is so rotten that it is disgusting to both humans and gods, it is still more than enough to plug the hole under your nose where the poison gas is leaking."
Fushiguro Shijiro was amazed by the art of speaking: "Is your tongue so lethal?"
"It's rare for you to say something I agree with."
Gojo Satoru was floating outside the window with a look of disgust on his face. Beside him was Geto Suguru, who was riding a rainbow dragon and had a hint of madness in his smile. At this moment, in the eyes of Louhu and Rimei, they were the black and white evil spirits in every sense of the word.
"Ghost Shadow, you're really playing a big game. Have you been thinking of using this guy as a trump card since then?"
Cheng Xiaoyu handed the real person, who had been wrapped up like a dumpling with his hair, to them. "He had already joined the gang before I told you. I didn't tell you because there were still some shady guys causing trouble. Look, I left a punching bag for you to vent your anger on. I also caught a cursed spirit with some really interesting skills for Jie as compensation for working overtime yesterday. Gojo Satoru, look at this, it's 99% rare."
Gojo Satoru took one look and said, "The ability to twist souls is indeed rare, even rarer than those two guys just now. Jay, you really have a great harvest today. I'm a little jealous."
Those two just now...
Leakage Pot thought of the two companions who had not come with him, and was filled with grief and anger: "Hana! Tuoliang!"
Geto Xia Yu: "Hey, why are you shouting so loudly? After you are recruited by me, you can work together as colleagues for me."
Leakage Pot: “Bastard!!!” Is this person a devil?
Cheng Xiaoyu: "Really? I've already beaten this guy down to very low health. Xia Youjie, quickly gather yourself! There's a lot of people over there waiting for us to leave."
Because of the high-dimensional creature No. 1, they could not find the trace of Noso and others, but the FBI and Edogawa Conan and others under the influence of the high-dimensional creature No. 2 were not affected by the high-dimensional creature No. 1 at all. What's more, Noso and Rime still had debuffs on them that were being tracked down by the red team with all their strength.
In this situation, Cheng Xiaoyu didn't need to go find Li Mei and Lu Suo herself. She only needed to keep an eye on the FBI's movements and let No. 233 monitor the FBI's real-time communications. She would be able to quickly determine the approximate location of Li Mei and Lu Suo.
At the same time, because Cheng Xiaoyu has been keeping an eye on the FBI agents, if any agent is implicated and dies, she will immediately recover their souls through the shadow and reshape their bodies with magic to revive them. She will also eliminate or blur their painful memories of death, and then find ways to compensate them, such as tripping over gold on the road.
Now that Cheng Xiaoyu has achieved her initial goal of working overtime, she can go back and rest, but the FBI are still working overtime for her sake, and even asking more people to come and work overtime.
Whether you are a human or not, you have the right to leave work and not get off work overtime!
How can you ask people to work overtime when there is nothing to do?
Inducing and forcing others to work ineffective overtime and taking pleasure in it is a habit of capitalists, not the devil. Moreover, capitalists are much better at torturing people than the devil.
The evidence is that since the prevalence of capitalists, news about demons harming people in the world and the appearance of demons has become rare or almost unheard of. This is because capitalists have seized the ecological niche of demons that tortured humans and have dragged the demons back to hell.
Cheng Xiaoyu, who was too excited because her work was over, was seriously thinking about this.
