Chapter 121 Heavy Rain, Tokyo, Bloody Auction (V)
"This is a mess... We have to get to the scene before my Unit 2 beats Su Zimai half to death."
It was raining heavily on a street somewhere in Tokyo. There were no pedestrians on the road. Only a black Maybach was parked out of place on the side of the street, enduring the wind and rain.
Inside the Maybach, Hei Pupa retracted his legs that were against the front window, sighed, and slowly stood up from the seat.
He used the restraints to open the car door, and the cold rain immediately hit him in the face. The heavy rain penetrated the cables and countless neon signs, hitting every inch of the restraints wrapped around his body.
Tokyo in the rain is damp, cramped and condensed.
The black pupa slowly raised his head and tied the traffic light sign above his head with a restraint belt, while spreading the restraint belt over his entire body. His slender figure cut through the rain curtain, flying upwards like a swift, and landed precisely on top of the sign.
He squatted above the traffic light like a cat, raised his head and looked into the distance at the Amemiya Building shrouded in rain.
"I can't interfere with the mirror world. Brother and Li Qingping should take care of themselves. If Father Ghost Zhong arrives in time, he should be able to save them. If the sleeping boss wakes up, he should be able to save their lives."
Thinking of this, Hei Pupa used a restraint belt to tie up the billboard in front of him that was changing red and blue.
He tapped the traffic light sign under his feet and jumped up, like a dark bird flying through the neon lights torn apart by the heavy rain. Soon he was lost in the sky above the streets of Tokyo.
It was as if it was swallowed up by this endless rain.
At the same time, on the fifth floor of the Amemiya Building, inside the real auction house.
The blood descendant raised his beautiful eyebrows, raised his red eyes from the corpses on the ground, glanced at Ke Qirui at the entrance from a distance, and then looked at Lin Zhengquan.
She curled her lips, turned her head and looked at Xia Pingzhou, and said with interest: "After beating the little baby, finally there are some good-looking guys coming. Otherwise, I would regret following the newcomers to come here to play."
At this moment, Xia Pingzhou was looking into the eyes of Ke Qirui in the distance.
The former's gaze was so cold that it seemed to freeze, while the latter's gaze seemed to contain a hint of persuasion.
In fact, in Ke Qirui's imagination, as long as she could take the two quasi-disaster-level members away from here, she could buy Xia Pingzhou a chance to escape from the White Crow Brigade;
Of course...even if Xia Pingzhou is unwilling to seize this opportunity to leave the brigade, and chooses to continue to stay in the brigade as an undercover agent, it will not have much impact.
Because apart from Xia Pingzhou, the only member left in the real auction was Lan Duoduo. With Xu Sanyan and Lin Zhengquan's abilities, it was more than enough to fight against one member.
Thinking of this, Ke Qirui stepped forward and said expressionlessly to the three people behind him:
"Next, I will pin down these two quasi-disaster-level members. Sanyan, Zhengquan, you two will subdue the remaining two members. I can't take care of the people outside because I'm in the movie curtain, so you should protect Mai Mai as much as possible. Her safety is the top priority. If you find that you are no match for your opponent, evacuate the auction site immediately."
After saying that, Ke Qirui looked at the Bloodline and Ayase Origami from a distance through the retro one-way mirror.
The moment his eyes locked on the two of them, a strange light flashed across his lenses.
The next moment, Ayase Origami and Bloody both opened their eyes slightly, and saw a black and white curtain suddenly formed behind them.
They suddenly looked back, and an irresistible force pulled them into the movie screen.
Immediately afterwards, the two movie screens in the auction hall disappeared at the same time.
Instead, there was a dim curtain right in front of Ke Qirui.
She glanced at the two figures on the screen, then looked back at Su Zimai and gave her a calm smile: "Take care of my hat."
After saying that, Ke Qirui walked into the movie screen.
When the blood descendant opened his eyes again, what he saw was a long street in black and white.
At this moment, she and Ayase Origami were standing under a black moon. The black street lights and the black moonlight shone down, covering their bodies. The colors on the long street were blurred, and the black and white gradient made people feel as if they were in the loneliest abyss in the world.
"Wow...what is this place?"
The Bloodborn looked around curiously with eyes wide open like a hundred-year-old girl.
Then she slowly turned her head and looked at Ke Qirui who was not far away. She raised the corners of her mouth and whispered softly, "Oh... the exorcist that the captain mentioned before, I remember now, the owner of the train demon and the movie demon."
"Ke Qirui, this is my name."
Ke Qirui introduced herself.
As she spoke, she subconsciously lowered the brim of her hat, then she remembered that her Deersteck hat had been moved to Su Zimai's head, so she shook her head, and her hair, as black and shiny as lead powder, swayed gently in the air.
This is a world as quiet and silent as a pantomime. No sound can be heard from anywhere, so the only sounds left in the world are the tiny sounds made by three figures. Even if they speak in very low voices, they still sound extremely loud.
Ayase Origami remained silent, and her empty eyes suddenly turned cold, as if she remembered that No. 12 was still outside.
Most of her pages were still at the auction, so all that was left were the spare pages from her kimono and a notebook - which she used to play Go with Xia Pingzhou.
Stacks of paper pages flew out from her sleeves and gathered into a giant paper dragon in midair. The scales of the paper pages overlapped and opened and closed. The paper dragon fell from midair and crawled on the long street like a pantomime.
Suddenly, a faint sound of an engine came from the sky, echoing throughout the silent street.
"The sound of a train engine?" the Blood Descendant thought.
Ayase Origami did not hesitate at all. She controlled the paper dragon to vibrate its wings and shot towards Ke Qirui.
At this moment, a movie screen suddenly appeared behind Ke Qirui. She took a step back and was absorbed by the screen. Her figure then appeared on the roof of a house on the west side of the long street.
She stood under the black moon, quietly looking down at the Blood Descendant and Ayase Origami on the long street.
As time went by, the sound of engines hanging over the silent street became louder and louder, as if it was about to drown out the entire world.
Ke Qirui said calmly: "It has been a long time since it has had an opponent that can rival it. Everyone thinks it is just a means of transportation, but in fact... it is a man-eating monster."
In an instant, the paper dragon flapped its wings, creating a whistling gust of wind, and soared into the sky, rushing towards Ke Qirui like a sharp white electric drill.
But at this moment, the engine sound shrouded the pantomime world reached its peak.
“Boom boom!”
Accompanied by a deafening roar, a space crack suddenly opened in mid-air.
Under the black moon, a dark red retro train locomotive emerged from the crack, followed by a car body that was almost a hundred meters long.
The world was silent, as if torn apart by the sudden dark red color.
The next moment, the train hit the paper dragon that was flying upwards from the cross section. The moment the front of the train collided with the white paper scales, the whole world seemed to be in turmoil.
Then, the paper dragon's body was shattered into thousands of pieces of paper by the unstoppable force.
The scattered pages fell one after another in the pantomime world, slowly falling towards the long street like a rain, passing over the heads of the Bloodline and Ayase Origami.
The two raised their eyebrows and looked at the front of the train.
I saw a dark red face embedded in the front of the car. The face looked old, but the eyebrows were long and thick, steam was coming out of his nostrils, and his mouth was tightly pursed. He looked like an angry old man.
"This is the legendary monster - the 'Train Demon'."
The Blood Descendant looked at the demonic face embedded on the front of the car and couldn't help but curl his lips, "I really learned a lot today."
“Annoying…”
Ayase Origami whispered to herself, her eyes becoming increasingly cold. She put the paper pages scattered in the air together into paper butterflies and circled them around her.
At the same time, Ke Qirui slowly took out the pipe from his windbreaker pocket and put it in his mouth. Movie screens formed above Ke Qirui's head.
The train demon's body was divided into countless movie screens and scattered randomly in the air. North, west, south, east, no matter which direction you looked in, you could see fragments of the train body emerging from the screens.
In the end, the broken car bodies twisted into the shape of a "Mobius strip" in mid-air, hovering above Ke Qirui's head in a form that was almost "folded".
Under the black moon, Ke Qirui's clear hair swayed in the wind.
She put her left hand in her windbreaker pocket, held the pipe in her right hand, lowered her head close to the pipe, took a puff of smoke with a calm expression, and looked down at the two people on the long street.
"Well... two lovely ladies, let's see who is the protagonist of this pantomime." She stared at the Bloody and Ayase Origami through the one-way mirror, and slowly raised the corners of her mouth.
At the same time, inside the auction venue in the real world.
On the auction table, Lan Duoduo, holding the oddities catalog in his hand, shook his head and looked around, but he couldn't find the figures of Bloody and Ayase Origami in the auction room.
She leaned over, leaned on Xia Pingzhou's shoulder, shook his neck, and said in surprise:
"Oh my god! Newbies! Where are the vampire and the young lady? Did they just disappear like that?"
"I was taken away by that woman's movie demon." Xia Pingzhou said expressionlessly.
He stared motionlessly at the entrance to the auction house.
Xu Sanyan walked towards the auction table while summoning Tianqu, and a dark umbrella appeared out of thin air. He leaned forward slightly, grasped the dark red handle, and then suddenly raised the tip of the umbrella, pointed it at Lan Duoduo on the auction table, and pulled the trigger on the handle.
"Bang!" Accompanied by a sharp gunshot, a silver bullet shot out from the opening at the tip of the umbrella!
Lan Duoduo glanced sideways, and a card with silver lines on it flew out from Lan Duoduo's gallery of odd stories. She grabbed the card and crushed it with a "click".
"A popular wonder: the snowman in the deep mountains." Lan Duoduo moved his lips and said silently.
As soon as he finished speaking, a giant seven meters tall and covered with snow stood in front of Lan Duoduo. It lowered its scarlet eyes and crossed its arms.
The silver bullets hit the arms of the snowman in the mountains and suddenly exploded into a scorching mist, ravaging the snowman's body and melting the snow on its surface, but ultimately failing to break through its thick skin.
Xu Sanyan had a blank expression on his face: "Are you here to tell a strange story? I hope you don't come up with a generation-level strange story."
Lin Zhengquan said coldly: "Xu Sanyan, how can a generation-level anecdote be something that is everywhere?"
The snowman in the deep mountains gasped heavily, raised his scarlet eyes, and stepped on the ground with his feet to create a huge spider-web-like pit, which was shot towards Xu Sanyan like a huge cannonball.
At this moment, Lin Zhengquan summoned Tianqu.
His entire body was covered with a huge metal mechanical prosthesis, which transformed him into a three-meter-tall mechanical giant. He took heavy steps, roared, and rushed towards the snowman, swinging his right hand covered with a metal glove at the snowman.
The body of the snowman in the deep mountains was blasted back two meters, and the snow on his body fluttered to the ground.
"No. 5, hold these two people back." Xia Pingzhou said to Lan Duoduo, "I'll go take care of the scum hiding in the back, and then I'll come to help you."
"Don't call me No. 5, call me Lan Duoduo!" Lan Duoduo muttered, and took out a silver oddity card from the oddity atlas, raised his hand and crushed it, "Popular-level oddity Headless Knight."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp horse neigh suddenly sounded in the auction hall, followed by a ghostly horse running down from mid-air, carrying a headless knight covered in armor with a lance in his hand.
The headless knight rushed over on his ghost horse and headed towards Lin Zhengquan together with the mountain snowman.
"Calm down...Calm down, calm down, I can't just do nothing."
Su Zimai frowned and summoned Tianqu. A magic glove suddenly appeared on her right hand. At the same time, a black tall hat appeared on her head and a red cloak appeared behind her.
He looks like a little magician.
She was about to rush forward, but suddenly she saw a silver-white figure appear from the corner of the auction hall, running towards her at a phantom speed.
Su Zimai was stunned for a moment, then lowered her face and looked carefully. She saw that it was a luxurious silver stone statue. Blue flames were burning in her eye sockets, and a thin and cold flame was drawn in the air from the corners of her eyes. The dagger held in her right hand reflected the cold light.
At the same time, Xia Pingzhou avoided the battlefield between Lan Duoduo and Lin Xu and walked slowly from the corner of the auction table.
A black and white halo was covering his body, forming a circular chessboard. The shadows of the chess pieces on the board were slowly rotating around him like satellites.
Xia Pingzhou stared at Su Zimai expressionlessly, as if he was looking at a corpse.
Su Zimai stared back at him coldly, and said to himself word by word:
"Then come."
