Chapter 90 Performance (Part 3)
"So...my brother is not a Blue Arc after all?"
Inside the Kawasaki Ramen Restaurant, Su Zimai muttered to himself, as if he was in another world.
"right."
Ke Qirui looked at the photo of Lan Arc on his phone and nodded.
She turned her head to look at Su Zimai and said unhappily, "From what I can see now... what Hei Pupa told us yesterday about Lan Hu being your brother should have just been a joke."
"I told you... trusting that big bastard is definitely the dumbest thing we have ever done in our lives." When saying this, there was no sound of anger in Su Zimai's tone.
Instead, there seemed to be a hint of relief, relief that he had been deceived by the black pupa.
Ke Qirui thought for a moment and said, "But the problem is... even if Gu Wenyu is not a Blue Arc, he is most likely a mutant."
"Captain, are you trying to say that my brother is that big moth?"
Su Zimai curled the corners of her mouth and pointed at the Tokyo Tower on TV with a somewhat amused look: Hei Pupa had just jumped from there, and his life or death was uncertain - of course she hoped that Hei Pupa died under the Tokyo Tower, but it was a pity that it was difficult.
"No, haven't we verified this?" Ke Qirui smiled at her.
For some reason, Su Zimai suddenly froze.
Her heart was beating so fast, as if a thousand little people were kicking and tapping against her heart.
It was not until this moment that she finally calmed down. All the worries she had in the past few days disappeared, as if a huge rock had fallen from her heart, rolling into the abyss with a clang.
Su Zimai hung his head, was in a daze for a while, and then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
She seemed a little happy...happy that her brother didn't lie to her.
I told you, I've already told you my identity honestly, how could you possibly be hiding something from me?
We are family...
When she came to her senses, Su Zimai found that Ke Qirui was staring at her.
In order to hide her daze, she quickly made a joke: "Well... I was worried that Xu Sanyan would follow me for a long time, but I found out that my brother suddenly went into a gigolo club and ordered a man to accompany him for a night of partying."
After a pause, she said jokingly in a serious tone:
"If I knew my brother was actually a gay, it would be more terrifying than knowing he was a Blue Arc, right?"
"Okay, stop insulting your brother... We have wronged him for so long, how pitiful is he?"
After that, Ke Qirui put on the Deerstek hat that was placed aside and said softly, "Let's go, Mai Mai, let's go to the branch building and meet the real Blue Arc."
"Um."
Su Zimai nodded.
Having said this, Ke Qirui paid the bill to the waiter and hailed a taxi outside the ramen restaurant.
After getting in the car, the two said something to the driver, and the car drove towards the official building of the Exorcist Association, gradually disappearing in the ocean of neon signs.
At the same time, on the other side of Minato Ward, Tokyo.
Ji Minghuan controlled the No. 1 machine, the Black Pupa, and followed behind Xu Sanyan, flying under the moonlight with the help of the restraints, circling around rooftops, billboards, and the tops of telephone poles.
After a while, he followed Xu Sanyan all the way to the first floor of the Japanese Exorcist Association building.
When Hei Pupa looked up, it looked like just an ordinary office building - this was because the "Exorcist Association" was different from the "Other Walker Association" and was not an entity that would appear in the society.
Because of this, if Ji Minghuan wants to find the Japanese branch building of the Exorcist Association, he must follow Xu Sanyan.
When Xu Sanyan arrived, Ke Qirui and Su Zimai just got out of the taxi.
The three met and greeted each other.
Unfortunately, after they entered the association building, they did not see a man in a cyan-blue uniform, only the president.
The white-haired, over-50-year-old president of the Japanese branch, wearing an antique yellow kimono, with his hands behind his back, smiled and explained, "Mr. Lan Hu left first. He said he would come back tomorrow after all the members of the bodyguard team are gathered. There is no need to rush."
Although Ke Qirui was a little disappointed, she still smiled and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."
As she spoke, she glanced at the absent-minded Su Zimai: "Maimai, it's late today, let's go back and rest."
"Oh... it's all in vain." The black pupa following above their heads sighed.
Although he did not see the funny scene of Gu Qinye and Su Zimai meeting each other, Ji Minghuan thought: at least I can know which hotel Ke Qirui is staying in, so he remained invisible and followed Su Zimai all the way.
A moment later, the black pupa stopped on the branch of a ginkgo tree beside the road, squatting like a cat, squinting at the plaque on the top of the five-star hotel.
"Qing Benhua Hotel."
Ji Minghuan under the mask silently memorized its address and name.
Then he raised his right arm, stretched out the restraint and wrapped it around the traffic light sign on the road, grabbed the black restraint and jumped up under the moonlight.
Soon, Black Pupa returned to the Roppongi Hotel.
He shrank his body and entered the dimly lit room through the open French window.
Glancing sideways, he could see that his restraints avatar was sitting on the bed in a daze, holding a room card in his hand.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Ji Minghuan untied the restraints that were wrapped around his entire body, walked over, and symbolically expressed his condolences to the other "Gu Wenyu". Then the restraints hissed and turned into a hot gas and dissipated.
The room card fell to the ground with a thud.
He picked up the room card on the ground with a restraint, stretched it to the door, and put the door into the card slot.
The orange and yellow lights in the high-end king-size room lit up one by one, dispelling the cold darkness.
Ji Minghuan sat on the soft bed, hunched his back, and breathed a sigh of relief: "This way, I have finally cleared myself of suspicion."
He slumped back with relief and lay directly on the bed.
"Go to bed early today... The tutor may come over tonight and tell me about my parents. Even if he doesn't come, I still have to go to the Ghost Clock tomorrow night to recharge my batteries."
Not long after he closed his eyes, Ji Minghuan fell into a deep sleep.
A night in silence.
The next day, at the Roppongi Hotel in Tokyo, Japan.
When Unit No. 1 opened its eyes, Ji Minghuan saw the time on the wall was 7:30 in the morning.
At the same time, the first rays of daylight came through the high-end curtains and shone on the red floor.
"Didn't the teacher come to see me last night..."
Ji Minghuan stared at the ceiling for a while, then slowly got up from the bed.
On July 15th, he had nothing to do the whole day, or rather, there was really nothing to do.
On the main body side: When no one came to visit, the prison cell was still deserted, so Ji Minghuan got out of bed, picked up something to eat from the plates placed on the ground by the experimenters, and after filling his stomach, he lay back on the bed and continued to sleep;
Xia Pingzhu: Since he hadn't received any news about the group leader's arrival in Tokyo, he had no choice but to stay in the cafe, drinking coffee, chatting with Ayase Origami and Oda Takikage, and occasionally acting as a waiter in the store, handing out sugar and books to customers, which seemed quite pleasant;
Finally... only Gu Wenyu was left, and some things remained unresolved.
Because on the evening of that day, Ji Minghuan made an appointment with Gu Zhuoan to meet on top of an abandoned building near Tokyo Bay.
Time is like sand flowing through fingers, slipping away silently.
At dusk, the setting sun, which was lowering towards the horizon, slowly took away the afterglow scattered on the earth, and the neon lights rose up everywhere in Tokyo like fallen dominoes.
Another night came, and with it came a sudden rainstorm.
It seemed as if a floodgate suddenly opened above the clouds, and tens of millions of tons of rain poured down.
The raindrops drifted in the streets and alleys and between the cables of tall buildings, drawing clear parabolas, and finally hitting the earth violently.
The wind whistled and the thunder rumbled...
A terrifying flash of lightning could be seen across the sky, and even the clouds were lit up.
At this moment, on the top floor of an abandoned building around Tokyo Bay.
The black pupa was hanging upside down motionlessly below the ceiling, holding in his hand an educational book titled "How to Get Rid of the Negative Influence of Your Original Family."
With the help of a little neon light coming in from the window, he lowered his eyes and quietly flipped through the book.
Faced with a ruthless character like "Ghost Bell", he was too lazy to put on airs and wrap himself up like a giant cocoon - that would have no deterrent effect at all, and might instead become a fuse to anger the other party.
Amid the sound of "clattering" rain, Hei Pupa glanced at the city of Tokyo in the rain. The Rainbow Bridge over Tokyo Bay was still brightly lit, and the traffic formed a dragon of light.
At this moment, he suddenly saw out of the corner of his eye a figure appear in the middle of the floor - with a "boom", lightning flashed across the sky, and the fleeting light illuminated his figure.
The black pupa was stunned for a second, then slowly turned his head and looked forward.
The uninvited guest was wearing a breathing mask with a metal Z engraved on it and a long black cloak. The long cloak wrapped around his whole body, hiding his figure in the darkness, but it could not cover up the red light flashing in his pupils.
He slowly walked towards the black pupa, and every step seemed to be accompanied by the roar of a bronze bell...
The rain is still falling and the world is silent.
