Chapter 860: Strange teammates added
The stand-in doll is very light in weight.
Taking the wind direction into consideration, as long as the doll's balance is maintained when it is thrown out, it should be able to attract the police's attention.
Kidd thought that if the police went after the puppet, he would have a better chance of escaping... He hoped that the police would not be smart enough to split into two groups.
Thinking of this, he planned to break the substitute ball.
However, just as he picked it up, his vision suddenly darkened slightly - a figure fell behind him.
Kidd was sitting on the ground with his back to the light, and at this moment, it seemed as if someone stood up silently from behind him and was staring at him with a grim look.
In the strong wind, a piece of white clothes was blown up by the wind and snow, and flashed past Kidd's peripheral vision.
Kidd was startled, alerted, and turned his head sharply.
But before he could see who was behind him, a hand chopped down from behind and landed accurately on the back of his neck.
This knock was like pressing a hidden mechanism.
Kidd's vigilance and resistance froze in an instant, and he fell to the ice with a thud due to the force of the blow.
——Even a thief with various skills cannot escape the law of "being hit on the back of the neck will make you faint". Kidd's eyes began to fog up quickly, and he tried to look back. In the end, what he saw was a blurry figure in a kimono.
When Kidd saw this outfit, his heart skipped a beat - the police would not dress like this to perform their duties, and they would not hit people on the back of the neck right away... Could there be someone hiding and preparing to plot against him? Could this be some perverted killer passing by? Or a thief reaper?
However, no matter how alert he was, Kidd could only scratch the ice unwillingly, and his vision gradually darkened.
Behind him, "Miss Spider" in a white kimono raised her hand and grabbed the gauze hat that was blown up by the wind.
Jiang Xia has abandoned his cat vest and replaced it with Miss Spider's puppet.
It pressed down the gauze cap and put it back on.
Then he looked at Kidd on the ground: "..." As expected of a man with the aura of a protagonist. With the same force and hitting the same spot, Kidd even fainted slower than a normal person...
…
In the darkness of the night, the sound of sirens got closer and closer, and finally stopped at the entrance of the skating rink.
Jiang Xia no longer thought about the relationship between the force of the blow and the speed of fainting.
He squatted down, picked up the substitute ball that Kidd hadn't had time to use, knocked the doll inside out, and casually placed it in a downwind direction, letting it slide along the ice.
He picked up Kidd and slid away quietly in the chaos where the searchlight of the helicopter above could not reach.
A cat vest is equal to a certain amount of puppet clay. With a cat, when switching to another vest, you don't have to laboriously dispatch shikigami from the main body and condense clay - as long as other ghost fetuses are nearby, you can use the existing cat as raw material to pile up a new vest.
Tonight, in order to take the cat for a ride, Jiang Xia used more clay to make a cat than usual.
So now, even though it has expanded into a humanoid puppet, its strength is still higher than that of an ordinary person.
This kind of puppet, which is not in its prime condition, might be a little difficult to use to fight against those who have higher combat power.
But it was not too difficult to launch a sneak attack on Kidd, who was wearing a thin dress, was stiffened by the northwest wind, fell hard on the ice, and had his hearing disturbed by the strong wind...
There are helicopters stationed in the sky, so it stands to reason that Mist Tengu can't fly over. If Mist Tengu's vest is used to help the thief escape at this time, it is difficult to scientifically explain why Mist Tengu appeared here. The concept of "monster" has already stepped on the bottom line of Kidd's worldview and danced. If "precognition" or "teleportation" is added, it always feels like it will break the upper limit and cause unknown changes.
And if in the future, he went to Kidd's house in Kirito's vest to pay a courtesy visit, and when asking about Kuroba Touichi, Kidd would also politely ask about Kirito's sudden appearance tonight...
So it's better to just change a vest and pick up the person and leave.
In this way, even if there are many mysteries, the effort of explanation can be saved.
——With so many aliases, it is easy to pass the buck.
As for which vest to use...
Just now, when Kidd was struggling to free himself from the rolled-up hang glider, Jiang Xia had already driven the cat out of Kidd's hat and tried to slide a few times secretly on the ice.
Then, regrettably, he discovered that he still lacked in terms of opening the cat, and his level of slipping was comparable to Kidd’s skating level.
At this level of slipping one step and falling ten steps, it would be difficult to escape gracefully even with a substitute doll to attract the police's attention.
"..." After silently putting "practicing how to use cat skating" on the agenda.
Jiang Xia began to count the other puppets.
Miyano Akemi, the mermaid, and the parents' ghosts were still beside the main body. Miyano Akemi's skill could make the main body invincible for one second, the mermaid could resist flooding, and the parents' ghosts could resist fire... When Jiang Xia was wandering around in unfamiliar areas with a vest, he would usually let them take turns to stay beside the main body to deal with emergencies.
And the remaining few ghosts...
Xiaobai is still the size of an elementary school student, and it is too funny to run away with Kidd.
Matsuda Jinpei is now seen as "Uzo" by outsiders. If he runs away with Kidd and is caught by the police, it will be a disgrace to his image and the organization will be very confused...
After all the calculations, only Miss Spider is worth mentioning.
And her tattoo is on her forehead. When she talks to people face to face, it is easy to be exposed, but if she pulls the white veil down a little, it is hard to see from a distance.
On the white ice, this outfit is also a good camouflage.
The mental journey of choosing a puppet did not take too long. After choosing, Jiang Xia decisively switched from the white-clawed black cat to the kimono-wearing Miss Spider. He knocked Kidd unconscious, carried him on his back and ran away.
…
As expected, the police chased after the substitute doll.
After Die Luohan knocked it down, the police realized that they had been deceived and immediately ordered people to block off the skating rink and conduct a thorough investigation.
However, before the encirclement was formed, Jiang Xia had already left successfully.
——Miss Spider’s puppet runs at a very fast speed. Although the kimono makes it hard to move your legs, so you can only walk in small steps. But she can still extend eight long spider legs from her back. In places with complex terrain, she can run at full speed, no slower than a car.
Jiang Xia took Kidd away and ate the ordinary gem without Pandora.
Then he threw the haggard Gem back into Kid's arms, and threw Kid to the path that Terai Huang Zhisuke had to pass - this old man was usually there to help, and it was not difficult to find him according to his pattern of appearance.
…
After solving the emergency tonight, Jiang Xia dispersed the puppet and returned to his body.
The ghosts and shikigami outside were also retracted back to the tattoo space on their hearts with a single click.
He then quickly returned home and yawned.
If you keep the puppet on for too long, it will consume a lot of energy and become sleepy easily.
Therefore, psychics who have ghosts never have to worry about insomnia.
Jiang Xia quickly lay down and prepared to rest.
Before going to bed, he remembered something and took out his cell phone to check.
Then I saw an additional message from Gin.
— to discuss the details of his borrowing of vodka tomorrow.
