Chapter 31 Deadly Dance
Sure enough, Isabel was always right, and they soon found a place to live.
After putting down the suitcase full of things, Kojima Nanako could finally breathe a sigh of relief. They came here all the way from abroad, and this contained all their luggage. Each item was important and none of them could be missing.
Isabel went inside to clean herself up. Nanako Kojima began to check the room. She had heard that some hotels would place surveillance cameras in the guest rooms. If she were to come across such a heinous crime... she would definitely chop off the head of the person behind it! Kojima Nanako raised an eyebrow.
Isabel walked out of the room and changed into a soft nightgown. Seeing Nanako's alert look, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "There's no need to be so nervous. If you keep tense like this every day, you'll eventually collapse from exhaustion."
"No!" Kojima Nanako said very seriously, "You don't know how hateful some people in this world are. Madam, if you are too unguarded, you will definitely suffer!"
"Is that so?" Isabel tilted her head and reflected on herself. After a while, she came over with a smile, touched Kojima Nanako's head, and said softly, "Thank you for your care. However, since there is no problem after the examination, go to bed early. You are the main force this time. If you don't get enough rest, I will be distressed."
Looking at the person so close to her, Kojima Nanako's face flushed, and she stammered, "Okay, okay, I'll go and rest now..."
"Wait," Isabel held her forehead with her hand as if she had a headache, "Go clean yourself up first."
"Oh, oh." Nanako Kojima turned herself around dizzy and walked towards the bathroom.
"Watch your head!" Isabel looked at Kojima Nanako who was about to collide with her and said helplessly, "Why are you always so confused?"
"I will change it!" Nanako Kojima shouted quickly. She would do anything for Lady Isabel, because without Lady Isabel, she might still be...
Thinking of this, Kojima Nanako's expression suddenly became resolute. Now she was waiting quietly behind the windowsill of a small building, staring at the pedestrians passing downstairs. At this time, a day had passed since they arrived in Yokohama.
There weren't many people, but there were quite a few either. Most of them were ordinary people out shopping. Occasionally, there were a few passers-by in black suits walking by. It seemed that they were related to the darkness in this city.
Until a young man with a teenage body came running hurriedly from a distance. He was wearing a white shirt and two adjustable suspenders next to his black tie. There was a leather belt floating behind him like a twisting tail. He had a smile on his face, holding a large bag of bread with the top sticking out of it in one hand, and a bowl of rice soaked in tea in the other. He looked like he had encountered something joyful and his whole body seemed to be floating.
"Now!" Nanako Kojima's eyes became fierce, she stomped her feet without hesitation, and chopped down in an instant.
"Danger!" Nakajima Atsushi's eyes widened, his instinct warned him painfully, he subconsciously obeyed his will and rolled to the side, a sharp silver-white slash landed on the ground where he was before, leaving a deep mark.
He suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
He stood up hurriedly, and several loaves of bread, which were already in danger of falling, fell to the ground. Fortunately, the rice and tea were fine. He stared at the figure that was becoming clearer in the smoke.
Seeing that a conflict seemed to have broken out here, the pedestrians around immediately ran away. Some of them screamed, some called the police, those who had cars drove away quickly, and those who didn't have cars wished they had two more legs. People in Yokohama seem to be very experienced in dealing with such scenarios.
Fortunately, the people who came into conflict did not start fighting at the first moment, and I don’t know if they were left with time to escape.
"Who are you?" Nakajima Atsushi looked at this stranger face he had never seen before, a girl who looked very well behaved and a little cute. "Are you the enemy of the detective agency?" he thought to himself and quickly tried to contact Mr. Dazai.
"Seven billion," Kojima Nanako looked at Nakajima Atsushi coldly, "Are you the man-tiger with a bounty of 7 billion yen?"
“Although I don’t know where you are worth 7 billion, it doesn’t matter,” she swung the two long knives in front of her and said indifferently: “Just catch you and hand you over to the lady.”
Nakajima Atsushi gritted his teeth. He had known for a long time that he was wanted in the supernatural world, and the bounty was an amount that he could not even imagine. However, he did not expect that before the big enemy that Mr. Dazai mentioned arrived, he would encounter an unknown enemy first. Or is the person in front of him his archenemy?
Having thought about this, he had no time to rest, because Nanako Kojima attacked again without hesitation. Her attack was very strange. Her weapons were two knives, but the knives grew out of her arms. Her original hands were completely gone. She used the two knives as smoothly and fluently as using her arms.
"Did they use human body modification?" Nakajima Atsushi simply threw away the bread and didn't care about the rice and tea. He stared straight at the knife light and didn't dare to blink, because with just one mistake, a part of his body might very likely leave him. "Is there some terrorist organization behind her? Would they capture innocent people and transform them into weapons like this?"
Before he could get angry, Kojima Nanako's actions overturned his guess. She quickly stepped forward, approaching Nakajima Atsushi who kept dodging and had the terrifying instinct of a wild animal. Anger rose on her face: "Is this a human tiger? All you can do is hide?"
She was faster and more oppressive. She jumped up and a scimitar-like arc of light came from an incredible angle. Nakajima Atsushi's eyes widened. He was not careful for a moment and his shoulder fell under the knife light.
He groaned and held the injured area with his other hand.
He focused more on dodging and looking for a chance to counterattack. He shouted, "I see, you are also a mutant! Your ability is to turn any part of your body into a weapon! Who are you, and who is the lady? If you want to arrest me, you must have made a mistake. I am not worth 7 billion at all."
"It's not your decision whether it's worth it or not." Kojima Nanako was unmoved. Her hands and feet had turned into tough swords. She raised her head, and there was a metallic color in her eyes. She exhaled, and steam was faintly rising from her body. Obviously, this "human tiger" was too agile and slippery. She couldn't just kill him. If she only used part of her strength, she was afraid that she would not be able to capture him before his helpers arrived.
She no longer restrained herself and used all her powers.
——"Deadly Dance of Chaos"
A shining silver-white light came into Nakajima Atsushi's eyes. He tried desperately to think about what Mr. Dazai had recently told him about the feeling of using supernatural powers. The unique sharpness of the sword made every pore of his body tremble. The human fear of iron products was revived from his genes. His feet were unable to move, and the immense fear of death finally awakened him. His pupils suddenly erected, and he roared, and pounced forward fiercely.
"Ding-ling." The door of the coffee shop opened, and a customer who had already paid walked out of the store. It was still peaceful outside. The early winter sun shone through the glass, warming the tables and chairs outside.
Isabel changed into a more beautifully colored dress today. One side of her long golden curly hair was combed up and tucked behind her ear, pinned with a vine-shaped silver clip, revealing her flawless profile. She picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip. She couldn't help but sigh: "It's cold now. I should drink a cup of hot coffee."
Although she is not used to drinking coffee, she has lived in the UK for more than ten years and has developed a habit. The bitter taste is not unacceptable to her. However, it is unknown how long such leisurely days can last. This city belongs to three parties, and they will know about anything that happens in it as quickly as possible.
Although she also concealed their whereabouts, she didn't know how hard that person had tried. There were also people in this city who were comparable to him. It would not be long before some of their information and all their actions after coming here would be on the desks of all parties.
But it doesn't matter. Because they have no history at all. There is no contact with any organization. They are just two naive and bold amateurs who came for money.
Well, that's it. Isabel curled her lips slightly and took a sip of coffee.
I didn't meet Dazai Osamu who jumped into the river as soon as I entered, and there was no "Sanhua" cat among the cats that were curled up, stretched, or lying vigilantly. Is this the travelogue of an ordinary person in Yokohama? Isabel was in a good mood. She was indeed not the protagonist of the world.
very nice.
Although she had prepared plans for those situations, she still preferred everything to go smoothly and steadily. Even though fierce collisions have their own flavor, peace is what lasts forever.
She squinted comfortably. At this moment, her cell phone on the table beside her suddenly vibrated.
A message was sent.
19:23 on the 17th. There is only a time and an address on it.
There was no reply, and Isabel put the phone down.
