Chapter 103 Mirror World, Double Auction (asking for monthly ticket)
July 17, Tokyo, 5 a.m. Japan time, an empty coastal road.
Black Pupa sat on a public bench with his arms resting on the back of the chair and his head lowered. His occasional snoring was muffled by the restraints wrapped around his cheeks.
Early this morning, he was squatting here again.
The cold sea breeze blew, causing the restraints on his body to open and close slightly like scales.
After sleeping for a while, he shook his head and stood up from the public bench with his shoulders hugged like a homeless person sleeping on the street.
"Let's just die..."
Speaking of the first auspicious words in the morning, he yawned, and while the nine members of the auction's core bodyguard team had not yet arrived at the scene, he pulled his body upwards with the help of the restraints and sneaked into the villa.
As always, the black pupa leaned against the railing of the second floor, maintaining the color-changing form of the restraints, and fell into a deep sleep.
Not long after, Blue Arc arrived as expected with his earth-shaking roar.
As if to refute what Ke Qirui had teased him about many times yesterday, "the fastest but the slowest to arrive", he arrived the fastest today.
The black pupa's head, which was leaning against the railing, shook slightly and hit the gap in the railing.
"Damn you, brother! Can't you let me sleep well? Fortunately, the Chinese people have never complained about you for disturbing the public..."
He came to himself, muttered to himself as he took out his cell phone, wrapped it with a restraint, and used the restraints to see the contents of the screen clearly, and used the restraints to type and send.
[Black Pupa: Good morning, Mr. Blue Arc. ]
[Blue Arc: How bad is your taste? Do you like spying on others so much? ]
[Black Pupa: After all, I have to ensure your safety. The safety of my partners has always been my top priority.]
【Blue Arc: Don't get caught. This is not my territory. I can't save you.】
[Black Pupa: Mr. Blue Arc has a great sense of humor. It sounds like you would save me if we were in China.]
[Blue Arc: What is your relationship with Ke Zinan and Ke Qirui? ]
[Black Pupa: Cooperation. I will ensure that both of them survive this auction, just like you. But don't be jealous. Cooperation with you is my top priority.]
He thought, "Without you, how can I start the main storyline related to 'Rainbow Wing'? Is it all up to Dad?"
[Blue Arc: Let me ask you a question. Who is that girl named Ke Zinan? I think she is weird.]
[Black Pupa: It's not a hero's job to pry into a woman's privacy. You'll find out sooner or later.]
The text message exchange between the two ended here, and figures gradually walked in from outside the villa and gathered in the magnificent lobby on the first floor.
Looking down from the second floor, the crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling divides the nine figures into two groups:
Blue Arc stood in the middle, with the Japanese Guard and Ghost Train Regiment on the left and right respectively.
"Today, let's talk about the specific arrangement plan for the auction." Yingwu said, "First, we have to talk about the ability of our 'Mirror Guardian'. As you can see, he is an exorcist. Yesterday, I also introduced that his Heavenly Exorcist is a mirror."
She paused: "And this mirror can replicate any venue he has seen."
"Copy the venue?" Blue Arc raised his eyebrows. "How exactly do you copy it?"
Ke Qirui crossed his arms and made a suggestion: "Ms. Yingwu, instead of introducing him verbally, it would be more efficient for us to see his abilities with our own eyes."
"Of course, that's what we came here for."
As he spoke, Yingwu held the hilt of the sword and looked sideways at Jingshou.
Jing Shou, who was dressed in Onmyoji's attire, summoned Tianqu, and a palm-sized dressing mirror appeared in his right hand.
He opened his folding fan, held the mirror in his hand, and walked towards the wall of the villa, then gently placed the mirror on the wall. The mirror body was stuck to the wall as if it was glued by super glue, and it did not move.
Then, in front of everyone's eyes, the entire mirror continued to expand. After two or three seconds, the expansion of the mirror stopped, and at this time its size was enough to be comparable to a human mirror twice its size. From a distance, it looked like a door, large enough to accommodate any human being to enter.
"Come in...everyone." Jing Shou said as he covered the lower half of his face with a folding fan and glanced sideways at everyone.
Then he stepped into the mirror. It was as if there was a swamp hidden in the mirror, and the figure of the mirror guardian was sucked into it, leaving only a ripple with a halo of light.
"Captain, do we have to go into that mirror too?" Su Zimai approached Ke Qirui and asked suspiciously.
Ke Qirui did not respond, but turned his head to look at the three Japanese people.
Yingwu, Fuyuyama Nobunaga and Haihara Ritsu walked in one after another, seemingly trying to dispel the concerns of these Chinese foreign players.
Seeing this, Ke Qirui and Lan Hu entered the mirror one after another; the people from the Ghost Train Group followed closely behind.
Black Pupa looked at this scene and narrowed his eyes slightly. "What's going on? I can't possibly go into the mirror with them. These Japanese are not fishing to catch me. I can't be fooled. I need to be more determined."
So he used his concentration like an old monk in meditation, lay on his side on the floor, and played Minesweeper without paying attention to worldly affairs.
At this moment, the mirror world.
Ke Qirui was slightly stunned, then raised his eyes from under the brim of his hat and scanned the world in the mirror.
This is a space that is exactly the same as the villa just now. The difference is that when looking out the window, there is no coastal road or the vast ocean. All that comes into view is nothingness and desolation, as if it is the end of the world.
After thinking for a while, Ke Qirui looked up at Jing Shou and said slowly:
"I see. You plan to use the ability of Mirror Guard to replicate the auction site. This will be equivalent to splitting the auction site into two, which will effectively confuse the White Crow Brigade."
Yingwu nodded: "Yes, in a few days, we plan to let the mirror guard replicate the auction site, and then let the guests of the Yakuza family hold a real auction in the mirror world." Yingwu paused, "And the auction in the real world is a cover... a cover to lure the White Crow Brigade into the trap."
Ke Qirui thought for a moment and said, "You plan to have the bodyguards of the mafia family disguised as guests and wait for the White Crow Brigade to arrive in the auction house in the real world; while the real guests will hide inside the mirror world. In this way, you can ignore possible risks and carry out the auction safely to the end."
Yingwu nodded again.
"Ms. Ke is indeed smart." Huihara Ritsu adjusted his round-frame glasses and smiled with his hands behind his back.
Lan Hu was silent for a moment: "Uh... I agree with your idea, but the problem is that the auction site and this villa are not buildings of the same size."
He paused and looked at Jing Shou: "Comrade, are you sure you can perfectly replicate an auction scene and accommodate all the guests?"
Jing Shou nodded, raised his eyes from his folding fan, and made a soft sound like a snake's hiss:
"You don't need to worry about this. I have already experimented with it myself last night. If you don't want to believe it, we can try it again at the auction site. But this will easily alert the enemy. I went there last night when there was no one on the street."
"I trust your abilities. This is a good proposal, very imaginative." Blue Arc looked at Mirror Guardian, then turned to look at the Ghost Train Group members, "What do you think, Ghost Train Group members?"
"The Japanese are still somewhat useful." Xu Sanyan said coldly.
Lin Zhengquan nodded: "This is indeed a good plan. It can ensure the safety of our guests while allowing us to fully fight the enemy at the auction venue in the real world."
Yingwu crossed his arms and glanced at everyone, "So when the time comes, we will wait for the White Crow Brigade in the real world, and the guests can bid for the goods in the replica mirror auction house. I think everyone has reached a consensus?"
Ke Qirui shook his head: "No, Ms. Yingwu, just in case, we need to arrange bodyguards inside the mirror world. Otherwise, once the people of the White Crow Brigade find a channel to the mirror world, won't it be like entering an empty land for them?"
As she spoke, she took out a pipe from her pocket and said teasingly, "It's not surprising that there are people with special abilities within the White Crow Brigade. We must remain cautious. This is also for the safety of our clients. Those gangsters may not last more than half a second in the hands of the White Crow Brigade without bodyguards."
Ying Wu thought about it, nodded and said, "You are right. At that time, we will temporarily divide the core bodyguard team into two groups. One group will stay in the real world, and the other group will stay in the mirror world. Once the White Crow Brigade is found, the other group will immediately rush to the attacked party to provide support."
"I don't know if I should ask this question, but I have one last question." Lan Hu hugged his shoulders and thought for a moment before speaking.
Ying Wu turned to look at him: "What's the problem? Just tell me, Mr. Blue Arc."
"If the mirror guard dies, what will happen to the mirror world?" Blue Arc said, looking up at the man dressed as an onmyoji. "If he dies, the mirror world will collapse instantly. Will the guests in the mirror disappear together, or will they return to the real world?"
The mirror guardian replied, "Please rest assured that even if I die, the mirror world can last for at least half a day. Guests can leave the mirror auction venue in an orderly manner and return to the real world before the mirror world collapses."
Blue Arc sighed and looked up at Mirror Guardian.
He said: "I don't mean to be aggressive, I just think this issue is very important, so...how can I believe what you say?"
Jing Shou slowly removed the folding fan that was covering the lower half of his face and met Lan Hu's gaze.
He said: "Mr. Blue Arc said so, but I can't die here on the spot to prove that the mirror world can continue after my death; my understanding of Sky Drive is based on the understanding gained from years of practice. Based on this understanding, I believe that even if I die, the mirror world will still exist for a while."
He paused and said, "As for whether you are willing to believe me or not, that is up to you... Otherwise, our cooperation can end here."
Blue Arc remained silent.
After a while, Ke Qirui beside him said, "Mr. Lan Hu, after weighing the pros and cons, I think that even if there is a risk of the mirror world collapsing, it is better than letting the elders of those underworld families participate in the auction in the real world. Otherwise, they will be affected by our battle and the probability of dying on the spot is more than 90%. "
"Then just listen to Miss Ke." Lan Hu smiled.
Ying Wu said in a relaxed tone: "Okay, now that we have reached a consensus, we will notify the guests one day in advance before the auction begins, telling them that the real auction will be held in the mirror world."
She took a deep breath and said, "Then... we will intercept the White Crow Brigade outside the mirror and capture them all in one fell swoop."
A moment later, Hei Pupa, who was playing with his mobile phone on the second floor of the villa, suddenly stood up from the floor, put away his phone, supported his head with his hands, and looked down at the hall of the villa.
From the mirror, the figure of Lan Hu was the first to step out.
He immediately used his restraints to type and sent a text message to Gu Qinye.
[Black Pupa: Hi, hi, Mr. Blue Arc, can you please tell me what you talked about in there? There was no sound coming out of that mirror from beginning to end. I almost suspected that you died in there.]
【Blue Arc: Tell me your true identity, and I will tell you what we talked about. 】
【Black Pupa: Gu, Zhuo, An. 】
【Blue Arc: Goodbye.】
