48 Chapter 48
◎A large number of prison guards are about to attack◎
Mu Ye Xue Che pushed open the door, and the two people in the room looked up at him at the same time.
The patrol team outside the door had left, and the three of them had a brief time to communicate.
"We were just chased to the main gate, which is locked and requires a password to open," Kunikida Doppo said. "According to the floor plan, Meursault should have another side entrance."
But there is a high probability that it will be locked.
"Even if we run, we won't be able to leave this island. Running out would mean exposing our location to them." Mu Ye Xue Che stood in front of the mirror, adjusting his hat. He observed himself for a moment before slowly looking away. "If we want to get out, we have to find a way to deal with the culprit, otherwise he'll keep making things difficult for us."
"A fortune teller?" Kunikida Doppo pondered. "You're right. Where is he now?"
The detective agency caused such a big commotion that they almost ran around the entire prison, but they didn't run into Yun Xiji.
Logically speaking, Yun Xiji should have been treated the same way as them, being hunted down by everyone and fleeing throughout the prison...
Dazai Osamu answered: "In the monitoring room."
He flicked his wrist lazily and sighed, "Meursault also tried to capture him, but failed."
Whether they broke in violently to arrest Yun Xiji, or sneaked in quietly to attack, none of them had any impact on Yun Xiji.
Yun Xiji even had the leisure to turn on the microphone so that he and Fyodor could listen to the live broadcast.
If you want to catch Yun Xiji, you must block his special abilities.
Dazai Osamu looked at his hands.
The ability blocker will be affected by the ability when it does not cover Yun Xiji. In order to make the ability ineffective, it must be flexible enough and completely unaffected by Yun Xiji's influence [No Longer Human].
"He can see the surveillance cameras in the corridor, so it's very difficult to catch him."
But it's just hard to catch.
If you want to catch Yun Xiji, [No Longer Human] must intervene.
The three of them discussed for a while and finally decided to let Murasakibara Xuetetsu find a way out, while Kunikida Doppo and Dazai Osamu would find a way to enter the monitoring room where Yun Xiji was and control Yun Xiji.
After arranging everything, the three were about to continue talking when footsteps suddenly appeared at the door, followed by two knocks, and someone was knocking on the door.
The conversation in the room suddenly stopped.
"There's a sound in this room." someone reported.
Another said, "Open it."
Before they could make a move, the door in front of them was opened automatically. Mu Ye Xue Che stood up and blocked the two people behind him tightly.
"I'm looking for something in there."
Unlike the previous team which had a large number of people, this time there were only two people knocking on the door.
Can be disposed of directly.
"Which area are you from?" The leader frowned and looked at Mu Ye Xue Che. "You look like a stranger."
He placed his hand on the alarm, somewhat alert.
Mu Ye Xue Che thought about the prison's floor plan and said, "I'm from Area C."
The two men in front of him were still skeptical. The man looked behind him and motioned for him to move aside. "You can go find your captain. Leave this to us."
Unexpectedly, Mu Ye Xue Che really gave way, and the two looked inside.
Before he could see clearly, he felt a pain. He couldn't utter a word and fell to the ground in a daze.
Mu Ye Xue Che left here.
The two people who fell in the corridor quickly disappeared, and were replaced by Dazai Osamu and Kunikida Doppo who came out from the door.
The two of them changed into prison guards' uniforms and blended into the main group.
Mu Ye Xue Che soon met Nakajima Atsushi again. He followed the same method, knocked out a prison guard and let Nakajima Atsushi take his place and blend into the team.
Unfortunately, Izumi Kyoka's height was too noticeable, so she couldn't join the group. The girl suppressed her expression and said, "It's okay."
Her voice was calm: "I'll be waiting for you at the door."
"No need, you can move with us." Mu Ye Xue Che said.
They can operate with hostages.
The detective agency infiltrated the prison guards' team and explored the prison to study the access control when they could act alone. The prison authorities chased them for a long time but did not realize that all their targets were lost. They just thought that a few people hid well.
The warden sat in the control room, waiting for reports from his men.
Yun Xiji's mocking remark came before his subordinates' report: "Idiot."
The warden who was caught off guard and scolded:?
Who are you talking to?
He checked for a long time and found that the microphone in front of Yun Xiji was not turned on, and he was not talking to Fyodor.
——That means I’m talking to him.
He looked worried: "Fortune Teller, what are you going to do?"
"I'm just stating the facts," Yun Xiji said. "If the detective agency successfully escapes with Dazai Osamu, then Meursault's prison record will have one more entry: a record of [being escaped by a small Japanese detective agency]."
"Even this group of people can successfully escape from prison. If you are not stupid, what are you?"
The warden just felt that he was full of hostility, and what he said was surprisingly reasonable, and he couldn't refute it.
wrong.
This group of people haven't left yet, and his men are still arresting people!
"Just say it." The warden thought Yun Xiji was hinting at or mocking him, thinking that the prison was useless for taking so long to catch a prisoner. That's why he said that.
Yun Xiji responded with a simple, "Idiot."
Warden: “…”
The damage was not great, but the warden felt a surge of anger in his heart.
What exactly did Yun Xiji mean? Did he say this because he was predicting the future?
The warden had a bad feeling, so he took the initiative to contact the captains of several areas to inquire about the arrest situation.
"We've only apprehended one person so far, a short girl who is in the hands of a member of Area C."
The warden nodded.
This is obviously a result. There are five people in total, and one has been caught. It is very likely that the group of people will rush up one after another to save this person. At that time, we just need to catch them all in one fell swoop.
The people from the detective agency are much easier to catch than Yun Xiji.
Yun Xiji's words just now might have been intended to mislead him and make him make a wrong judgment.
The warden thought this was the most reasonable explanation. He told the men to continue arresting him and then cut off contact.
His gaze fell back on the monitor in front of him. Yun Xiji looked up at the monitor, as if he was looking at him through the monitor.
Logically speaking, Yun Xiji shouldn't be able to hear the voices coming from the control room. After the warden hung up the phone, Yun Xiji spoke slowly and sarcastically, "Idiot."
Warden: “.”
Does this guy only know one word to curse?
However, the word was indeed very hurtful, and the warden admitted that he was angered.
He checked the microphone on his side and found it was not turned on.
How did Yun Xiji speak so accurately after he disconnected the communication?
coincide?
Yun Xiji said, "I suggest you check your men."
The warden was stunned.
"I didn't even know my men were replaced."
His men were replaced?
ah?
They caught someone...
The warden was startled and quickly turned on the communicator.
The four members of the detective agency blended perfectly into the team of prison guards. There were so many prison guards in Meursault Prison that it was impossible for anyone to remember the faces of all the members. Among the members of the detective agency, most people only knew Dazai Osamu.
As long as you cover Dazai Osamu's face and pretend to have a cold, you can hide the truth perfectly.
After joining the prison guard team, Mu Ye Xue Che did not continue looking for the exit. He took the "hostage" Izumi Jinghua all the way to find the captain of Area C.
"Are you new here?" The captain of Area C felt that Mu Ye Xue Che was unfamiliar. Mu Ye Xue Che's appearance was very memorable. If he was one of his subordinates, he should have remembered him. "Is there something you want to talk to me about?"
Mu Ye Xue Che said: "Captain, this is a prisoner accomplice I captured."
Izumi Kyoka was handcuffed and had a blank expression on her face.
The captain of District C was very satisfied: "Excellent, I will arrange for someone to put her in jail..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw a hint of hesitation on the face of this "new" subordinate. His brows were slightly furrowed, and his lips were pursed for a moment, as if he was making some mental preparations.
"What's wrong?" asked the captain.
Mu Ye Xue Che paused for a long time before speaking: "I have a request."
"explain."
"I, I want to go out and see the sea." He lowered his head and spoke slowly. "My hometown is far away from the sea. I have always wanted to go out and see the sea, so I took the initiative to apply for the position of Meursault prison guard at sea. However, after arriving here, I have to wear an eye mask when I go out, and I can't leave the prison normally..."
Mu Ye Xue Che was a little hesitant at first, but then he spoke faster and faster, "I want to go out and take a look, just one look——"
The captain of Area C glanced at his "achievement," Izumi Kyoka. He hesitated for three seconds and nodded, "Okay."
"This group arrived on the island by helicopter. To prevent any problems, the prison has already arranged for someone to dispose of those helicopters," the captain said. "You can go with them—and see the sea while you're there."
He was not worried that his subordinate might have any other ideas.
Mu Ye Xue Che curled the corners of his lips, "Thank you."
The captain of Area C asked someone to bring Jinghua Izumi to the cell.
Izumi Kyoka looked like just a young girl and didn't seem to have any fighting ability. The members in charge of escorting her didn't take her seriously and pushed her into a special prison with special abilities.
"Behave yourself and go in quickly." Seeing her dawdling at the cell door, the guard immediately pointed the electric baton at Izumi Jinghua, "Don't try any tricks!"
There was no expression on the girl's face.
She glanced at the inmates around her and the prison guards in front of her, and just said softly: "Superpowers——"
"[Yaksha Shirayuki]."
The other side.
The team responsible for handling the helicopter did not avoid Mu Ye Xue Che when opening the gate. Mu Ye Xue Che stared at the gate, only observing the group of people entering the password with his peripheral vision.
There are only three people in the team, and all three of them are psychics.
To enter and exit the main gate, you need not only a password but also an access card. The access card was kept by three people, and Mu Ye Xue Che only saw it at a glance.
Mu Ye Xue Che followed a group of people out of the prison. The blue sky and sea made him squint slightly.
The team said hello to the patrol and headed towards where the helicopter landed.
"I heard that you came to see the sea?" someone asked Mu Ye Xue Che.
"Yes." Mu Ye Xue Che entered acting mode in a second. His performance was a little unfamiliar. He repeated what he had said to the captain of District C before asking, "How should these be handled?"
"There are people in the team who specialize in this. Don't worry about it. Just focus on watching the sea."
Mu Ye Xue Che nodded.
The psychic began to deal with it, and Mu Ye Xue Che watched from the side.
The fact that the regional captain personally sent someone in has already proven that his identity is correct, and no one will deliberately guard against him.
While the three of them were not noticing him, Mu Ye Xue Che activated his special ability——
The invisible sharp blade silently and swiftly slashed towards the three people.
A second later, there was the sound of three people falling to the ground.
Mu Ye Xue Che took out the access cards from the three unconscious people, dragged them to the back of the helicopter, and leaned them upright against the helicopter, as if they were working.
He returned to the prison and walked towards Meursault. On the way back, he met a patrol team. Unlike last time, the patrol captain was also there this time.
He stopped Mu Ye Xue Che and asked, "What do you do?"
Mu Ye Xue Che replied: "I followed the team just now to see the sea."
He lowered his head and said, "I can't help much here, so I have to go back first."
The patrol captain thought he looked familiar, but Mu Ye Xue Che kept his head down, so he couldn't see his face clearly. He asked the team members beside him, "Was this person in the team just now?"
The team member thought for a moment and said, "Yes."
Mu Ye Xue Che successfully left.
He entered Meursault Prison. At this time, the prison was in chaos again. The little girl suddenly activated her special ability when she was about to be locked up in the cell. She injured the prison guard and escaped. Mu Ye Xue Che observed and decided to find other people to meet up.
————
The first person to find Yun Xiji was not Dazai Osamu or Kunikida Doppo, but Nakajima Atsushi.
He accidentally stumbled into the A-area prison. There was a guard in front of the monitoring room. The guard glanced at him, as if mistaking him for someone else. There was pity and regret in his eyes: "Be careful, young man."
Nakajima Atsushi was bewildered.
He didn't have to do anything before he was welcomed into the monitoring room. There was a huge screen in the monitoring room, and there was a young man sitting in front of the screen. His figure looked small in comparison.
The door closed behind him.
Nakajima Atsushi's eyes suddenly widened.
"Fortune teller"? ! !
How come he is here?!
"You're here so early." Yun Xiji turned off the microphone.
"What do you want to do?" Nakajima Atsushi retreated to the door cautiously. He was a little panicked inside, but he did not show it on the surface and looked calm.
Did he play "Fortune Teller"?
Is this true or false?
"Don't be nervous." Yun Xiji said, "You won't die."
This sentence automatically translated into Nakajima Atsushi's mind: [He will suffer a fate worse than death, and then be used by Yun Xiji to blackmail the detective agency.]
Faced with a powerful psychic who can modify reality, Nakajima Atsushi is unsure.
"Want to know what the future holds?"
Yun Xiji looked like a charlatan, and Nakajima Atsushi did not answer.
The other party directly and forcibly spoiled the plot: "You won't die."
Nakajima Atsushi slowly asked a question:?
What do you mean he won't die?
Yun Xiji's tone was so firm that Nakajima Atsushi subconsciously believed it. But when he realized what was going on, he immediately became alert: "What on earth do you want to do?!"
"First, he wrote that on the pages of the book, and then he framed the detective agency..."
"Stop." Yun Xiji interrupted him, "I didn't do anything you said."
"I didn't do anything. This was actually all part of the plan of the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Earth."
At most, he adjusted the probability a little bit.
There was a sound of fighting outside the door, and the next second, the door was pulled open forcefully.
Nakajima Atsushi, who was pressing against the door, was startled and jumped several meters away.
The light in the corridor was much brighter than that in the room, and it gently poured in through the crack in the door. Two people in prison guard uniforms stood at the door, with a knocked-out guard next to them.
It was Dazai Osamu and Kunikida Doppo.
Yun Xiji raised his eyebrows slightly.
His first reaction was not to talk to the two people at the door, but to the camera in the corner: "Do you see it now?"
Yun Xiji is talking to the warden: "Calling you an idiot is not unfair at all."
Nakajima Atsushi listened in a daze.
Who is he talking to?
Before he could react, he heard a voice coming from the loudspeaker, with some anger: "Did I expect these people to dress up as prison guards?"
Yun Xiji: "If you lack the ability, just say so."
The warden was so angry that he had a headache.
He was originally watching what was happening on Yun Xiji's side through surveillance.
Nakajima Atsushi seems to have a personal grudge against Yun Xiji, and comes to him to seek revenge.
The warden was very pleased with this scene.
Who knew that the scene of Yun Xiji being humiliated did not appear, and Nakajima Atsushi even wanted to escape. At this time, Dazai Osamu came up with his companions.
Three people against Yun Xiji alone.
——Yun Xiji's first reaction was to open the microphone and provoke him?!
The warden wanted to open his head to see what was inside.
Before he could continue speaking, the screen in front of him with Yun Xiji's figure suddenly went dark and the surveillance content disappeared.
The warden gritted his teeth.
After the provocation, you just destroy the surveillance, right?
He thought about Yun Xiji's situation and suddenly calmed down.
The fugitive and his accomplices helped him capture Yun Xiji, and when he captured these people, it was like solving two problems with just one thing.
The warden was no longer angry, but simply called a group of prison guards and asked them to go to the monitoring room in Area A to prepare to take the head.
[We don't have enough manpower...] The subordinate replied, [That girl is very powerful.]
Warden: “…”
Waste?
In the monitoring room, Yun Xiji looked at the three people at the door calmly, "Are you trying to bully the minority with your numbers?"
Nakajima Atsushi was speechless.
When they faced Yun Xiji, it was hard to say who was bullying whom.
The three people from the detective agency gathered together, and they knew the main plan without talking - to let Dazai Osamu catch Yun Xiji.
As long as you prevent the other party from using their special abilities, the rest will not be a problem.
The monitoring room is not small, but it is not big either. If the other party installs a bomb here like they did when they first saw it, I will definitely be affected.
Kunikida took a step forward, with a gun in his hand. He aimed at Yun Xiji's shoulder and fired.
The bullet deflected slightly, brushing past Yun Xiji's shoulder and hitting the screen behind him.
Yun Xiji stood up and walked towards the door. He had no weapon in his hand and seemed to be unconcerned about Kunikida Doppo's attack.
Nakajima Atsushi subconsciously wanted to catch him, but Yun Xiji "coincidentally" dodged him. He could foresee not only the actions of Nakajima Atsushi and Kunikida Doppo, but also the actions of Dazai Osamu in advance.
Dodge cleverly.
Everything was just right, so skillful as if it had been done hundreds of times.
[Precognition is not a supernatural power]
This has been confirmed previously at the Yokohama Museum.
"If it's not a supernatural power... then what is it?" Nakajima Atsushi felt like he was playing the role of a human outliner. He was responsible for throwing stones, while the enemy had maxed out their dodging skills and could not be hit no matter what.
"It's a memory." Surprisingly, the "Fortune Teller" responded. He was wearing a long cape the same color as the prison, which he had obtained from who knows where. His heterochromatic eyes curved slightly. "Don't worry, it's not that you are too weak, it's that I am too strong."
Three people from the detective agency: “.”
Why are you suddenly mocking me?
Cheating and taunting your opponents?
Yun Xiji said, "Because I have 'foreseen' this scene countless times."
"Did you foresee that the demon would leave early?" Dazai Osamu put his hands in his pockets and suddenly brought up this topic.
The detective agency is the bait.
From the beginning to the end, Yun Xiji's target was not the detective agency. Now that there was unrest in the prison, the demon would definitely take this opportunity to leave.
The screen was broken by bullets and no one could see what was happening in the prison where Fyodor was.
Dazai Osamu stared into his eyes and said in a normal tone: "You don't want to kill the demon, you just want to trap him?"
He was able to continue the conversation based solely on Yun Xiji's reaction: "Are you trapping him to achieve some purpose? A mission? Money? Or—his life?"
He found the answer: "It's life."
Dazai Osamu pondered: "If that's the case, then the so-called foresight and memory are a cycle?"
He had previously speculated about parallel worlds and books.
But neither method can repeat the same thing countless times.
Then there is only one possibility.
It's a cycle.
"As expected, we need to deal with Dazai Osamu first." Hazuki Shin said, "You guessed right."
Although he deliberately provided some information, Dazai Osamu still found the answer at an alarming speed.
System Question: [Is it going to fail? ]
The electronic sound carries a hint of anticipation.
The failure of Yun Xiji's plan means that the pain value will increase!
Among all the people present, Dazai Osamu cannot be considered the biggest variable. The real variable is Nakajima Atsushi.
[Moon Beast] has the ability to tear apart everything, time, space, and even supernatural powers.
Nakajima Atsushi is the uncertainty factor in each cycle.
Yun Xiji picked and chose Dazai Osamu's words and replied: "I have given Gogol a lot of trouble in advance, so he has no time to come and pick up Fyodor."
Fyodor couldn't leave on his own.
While talking to Dazai Osamu, Yun Xiji dodged Kunikida Doppo's bullet by leaning sideways. He glanced at Nakajima Atsushi out of the corner of his eye, always on guard against the other's movements.
Now all Nakajima Atsushi had to do was attack him.
Ye Yue Shen was building up his emotions, preparing to make a big move.
Nakajima Atsushi moved behind him, his tiger claws revealed. Nakajima Atsushi suppressed his brows, got into an attacking stance, and slammed towards Yunxiji—
“The person is over here!!”
"Catch it now!!"
Deafening footsteps and shouts were heard outside the monitoring room. Nakajima Atsushi paused, having missed the best opportunity to attack. He lost his balance and staggered.
The sound is getting closer.
Next second.
A large number of prison guards slammed the door open!
