Chapter 316 Working Time, the Possibility of Two Queen Bees (asking for monthly tickets)
It's late at night, Tempozan Aquarium in Osaka, Japan.
In a dim and deserted sightseeing corridor, the faint blue light reflected from the water tank illuminates the faces of every tourist.
Although they were tourists, there were only two people in the passage.
Fan Dongqing folded his arms and leaned against the wall of the passage, playing with his mobile phone;
Ke Qingzheng adjusted his glasses and looked up at the huge tank, in which there was a white whale being eaten by a light-eating wasp.
The scene before him was extremely hideous and brutal. The huge white whale was curled up at the bottom of the tank, its body covered with bloody wounds from bee stings and claws, and it had even lost the strength to make a wail.
A large group of bees lay on its bloody mouth, greedily sucking its blood.
Blood spread out, dyeing the dark blue sink red.
Ke Qingzheng walked over and sighed softly, "These things don't even spare the marine life in the aquarium."
"Just kill it." Fan Dongqing said without looking up, "Stop whining. If we're any later, the Japanese restaurant will close."
Ke Qingzheng raised his hand, the air condensed into a sharp arc, and the glass of the sightseeing tank shattered.
In an instant, the bodies of the bees were precisely split in two. The sharp air blade killed them while also dispersing the blood energy spreading in the pool.
The glass shattered, and the water in the giant tank squeezed out, roaring and sweeping like a flood.
Ke Qing had a blank expression on his face as a wall of air spread out in front of him, blocking all the liquid that was coming towards him.
"Let's go, that's all." He slowly turned and walked towards the exit of the aquarium corridor. Fan Dongqing followed him.
Not long after the two men walked out of the aquarium, they suddenly heard a loud bang in the night, followed by a burst of fire rising into the sky and explosions one after another.
"What's going on over there?" Fan Dongqing asked.
"It seems that the light-eating bees hid in the factory, so Jiujiu directly blew up the entire factory." Ke Qingzheng said.
"Pink-haired girl is really something... She didn't hold back when she hit him. I guess she'll be punished again after the mission is over." Fan Dongqing smiled.
In the distance, the green smoke covering the sky slowly dissipated, revealing a pink-haired girl with twin tails wearing a Russian military uniform and a military cap. On her back was a backpack-like metal flying device that could fly by spraying flames and air currents - this was developed for her by Garfield.
At this moment, a number of floating sniper cannons with a faint blue light were floating above her head. Missiles had just been fired from the barrels, turning the entire abandoned factory into a purgatory.
Like a volcanic eruption, boiling molten lava flooded the earth, obliterating everything except a massive crater a hundred meters in radius. The lingering heat and rising white vapors transformed the scene within the crater into a near-mirage.
Jiujiu noticed the gaze from a distance, turned his head, and looked up arrogantly from under his military cap at Fan Dongqing and Ke Qingzheng, his pink twin ponytails rising and falling in the night wind.
Fan Dongqing put one hand in his pocket and sent her a text message on his mobile phone with the other hand.
【Sail Holly: Cool.】
[Fan Dongqing: Pink hair, do you want to eat Japanese food? It's my treat.]
[Ninety-nine: Get lost, narcissistic man.]
After sending the message, Jiujiu raised her middle finger and stuck out her tongue at them, and then the flying device behind her spewed out a stream of air wrapped in flames, carrying her to another corner of the night sky.
Fan Dongqing shook his head. "How about we ask the old woman out? I always feel that it would be too boring just the two of us. Baimao has been hanging out with that famous person lately, so it's impossible to make an appointment with her."
"Esther is still busy." Ke Qingzheng said expressionlessly, "She seems to be in charge of... the base of the Light-Eating Bee at the Lego Discovery Center."
Meanwhile, Lego Discovery Center Osaka, an indoor children's playground.
The lights in the children's playground flickered, and the bodies of boys and girls were hanging from the ceiling.
The bees hated human eyes, so their eyes were the first to be eaten. Their eye sockets were holes, and blood flowed from them, streaking across their pale cheeks.
Most of the children's organs become food on the food assembly line, sliding down the slide into the customers' mouths one by one.
The light-eating bees were gathering around the slide for a meal, except for one smaller light-eating bee, which was forced to spread its wings and fly under the ceiling, guarding the children's bodies.
When the light-eating bees clamor for more food, the light-eating bee above them will use its claws to cut open the corresponding parts of the corpse.
Then the piece of meat falls onto the slide and slides smoothly to the ground for the light-eating bees sitting on the ground to enjoy, just like Japan's conveyor belt sushi.
Soon, a girl with black hair and red eyes wearing a gothic skirt walked into the children's playground.
Her eyelids drooped, and she looked drowsy, with no expression on her pale face.
"I'm sleepy... Making me work so late is simply abuse of the elderly." Esther muttered.
She hugged the bunny doll tightly in her arms, and suddenly invisible lines appeared above her head. Then the lines suddenly dropped down, and human-shaped dolls tied to the ends of the lines fell from the sky.
They woke up one after another.
They were a group of dancers wearing colorful skirts, their mouths sewn shut with silk thread, the corners of their lips curled up in a sweet smile. Under the pull of the silk thread, the dancers' bodies suddenly tensed and their heads stood upright.
The light-eating bees realized that something was wrong and raised their eyes from the pieces of meat they were gnawing on, squinting their eyes and staring at the puppets that were swarming around them.
Some of the dancers were dancing the graceful swan dance, and some were dancing the elegant tango, sliding from the ground towards the light-eating bees, their figures so fast that they looked like colorful lights dancing.
Even though the bees have excellent dynamic vision, they cannot see their movements clearly.
Then, in a series of graceful and dangerous dances, they tied the light-eating bees together with invisible silk threads. Then, countless silk threads trembled, shattering their bodies into thousands of blood clots.
Silently, blood fell like heavy snow, and then pieces of the light-eating bee's flesh hit the ground one by one, making a snapping sound.
Esther had already walked out of the paradise without looking back, her pupils flashing a faint red light in the darkness.
Late at night, in a remote hotel in Osaka Port District.
After obtaining a huge sum of money from Jack the Ripper, César is now a rich man.
So after Hei Pu was kicked out of the bookstore by Su Wei for being too servile, Xizel accompanied Hei Pu to this hotel and rented two rooms in one go for a week.
He lived in one room with Yagubaru, and Hei Pupa lived in another.
Gu Wenyu had been traveling for a whole day, so he took off his restraints and windbreaker, took a shower, drank a bottle of hot milk, and then lay down on the bed, turning his head to look at the brightly lit port area.
The evening breeze blew slowly, carrying the salty smell of sea water, and lost European birds flew through the city's cables and iron nets.
A moment later, the phone on the bed suddenly vibrated. He picked up the phone and saw a voice invitation from Su Zimai.
Gu Wenyu raised his eyebrows, answered the call, put the phone on the bed, and waited quietly for the other party to speak first - he was so tired that he was too lazy to even open his mouth.
"Are you still alive?" Su Zimai's voice came out, as clear and beautiful as ever.
"What for?" Gu Wenyu asked.
"I decided to call you every night to check if you are still alive," said Su Zimai.
"What if I don't answer it?" Gu Wenyu rolled his eyes.
"Don't ignore me." Su Zimai snorted, "Otherwise, if you don't answer my calls one day, I'll assume you're dead. Then I'll tell my brother and dad about you wearing a mask and pretending to be a big moth to trick them!"
"It's up to you. Whatever you want to do, it all depends on my mood." Gu Wenyu yawned, "Good night, sister. I'm a little sleepy. I've been traveling all day..."
"Don't sleep yet, I want to ask you a question."
"What do you want to ask?"
"Will you come back to school after summer vacation?"
"Come back, what are high school students doing if they're not in school?"
"That's good..." Su Zimai breathed a sigh of relief and said resentfully, "Come to think of it, we're in the same high school, and you go to school with that Qing Ping every morning, leaving your sister alone. How can you be so embarrassed?!"
Gu Wenyu was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, "It's okay, I won't go to school with him in the future."
"real?"
"Really? After school starts, I'll set the alarm for 5 a.m. every day to wake you up on time. If you don't get up, I'll use restraints to unlock the door, then hang you outside the window and put a piece of paper on it that says, 'This is our sleeping pig, Su Zimai.' Happy, right?"
"You dare?" Su Zimai said angrily, "If you bully me, I'll go and complain to my brother. I can't beat you, but does that mean my brother can't beat you either?"
"Alright, alright, since you've already figured out how to threaten me with Lord Blue Arc, I surrender." Gu Wenyu chuckled softly, "Let's go to sleep first and talk tomorrow."
After saying that, he hung up Su Zimai's phone. She seemed to want to say something else, but Gu Wenyu didn't listen and just turned on the do not disturb mode.
Gu Wenyu put down his phone and stared at the empty ceiling for a while.
Then, he slowly closed his heavy eyelids.
There was a silent night after that. When Ji Minghuan woke up again, he was awakened by a cold female voice.
"Restricted-level psychic, number 1002 - 'Ji Minghuan', quickly get up and get ready. The instructor has a message for you."
He had just opened his eyes when he heard a familiar voice: "You're awake."
Ji Minghuan turned his head and saw that the source of the voice was of course his tutor who was sitting at the table drinking tea.
"Teacher, why did you come here without making an announcement?"
Ji Minghuan sat up and said, speechless, "Who are you trying to scare to death?"
"The prophet has sent us another letter saying that he will be here within ten days," said the mentor.
"Within ten days?"
Ji Minghuan was stunned and thought to himself that by August 20th, the prophet would definitely come to the Salvation Society base to see him.
But who is this prophet, and what is his purpose in coming to see me in person?
Ji Minghuan's mind was full of thoughts and he was completely confused.
"You look pretty down." He sat cross-legged on the bed and turned to look at his mentor. "It's just a prophet. Is it really necessary to make you look so depressed? Is there any good news?"
The instructor was silent for a moment. "Indeed, we have received the latest intelligence from the natives of the Whale Garden. They say that the birth of a queen bee...must rely on devouring its own kind."
"Devouring one's own kind?"
"That's right. If one of the four great bee queens can devour the others, it will become the queen bee," the instructor said slowly. "And the light-eating bees have been in the outside world for 30 years. Every bee queen born by the queen bee is stronger than the one born 30 years ago."
He paused. "And the queen bee that is born from this will be far more powerful than we can imagine."
Ji Minghuan raised his eyebrows, looking as if it had nothing to do with him.
"That sounds like fun." He thought for a moment, "Wait a minute, since you said that when a queen bee devours another queen bee, a queen bee will be born. Then, theoretically, among this generation of light-eating bees, is it possible that a queen bee will be born..."
The instructor interrupted him, "Yes, two queen bees."
