Chapter 104 Sixteen Presidents

Seven years ago, a tragic and bloody incident broke out in Yokohama. The war lasted for 88 days and spread across the land of Yokohama. After it ended, the Special Powers Division called it the Dragon War.

In fact, at the very beginning, it was just a fight that had just broken out into chaos, and it was at that time that Shibuzawa Ryuhiko appeared.

Just as the murderer could not foresee that the knife he used would backfire on him, in order to end this chaotic fight more quickly, the Special Power Division released their usual anti-superpower killing humanoid weapon, Shibuzawa Tatsuhiko, into the city.

Then, the man who had no peace in his mind became the driving force behind the transformation of the struggle into a real war. His name was "White Unicorn".

During the most intense period of the Dragon War, gunfights broke out in the streets of Yokohama almost every ten minutes. The corpses that had not yet been cleared were piled up on the roads, emitting a foul stench of decay. All businesses closed down and the entire city fell into paralysis.

The main battlefield belonged to the *** and terrorist organizations, but most of the people who died in that war were the countless ordinary people who were caught up in it.

Some died on the way to escape, some were affected at home, and even more died under the irresistible artillery fire. The flowing blood dyed the land of Yokohama deeply red.

However, the nature of the Dragon War, which resulted in heavy casualties, was just a feast of bloodshed and killing in the Kanto region over the 500 billion black money that lost its owner, triggered by the death of a wealthy supernatural being*.

As the mastermind of this tragedy, Shibuzawa Tatsuhiko was not detained and tried, but was released by the government when the war ended and the Port Mafia was the only winner and firmly sat in the position of the leader of Yokohama.

Nakajima Atsushi saw the introduction of this man in the information about the Dragon War inside the Port Mafia. At that time, he could not understand the government's approach at all. Mr. Nazuki, who was carrying out a mission with him at the time, discovered his confusion and gave him an answer.

"The White Kirin's ability is a special attack against all superpowered people. As long as the White Kirin exists, the government won't have to worry about superpowered people appearing that they can't control."

After briefly explaining the information he had seen, Nakajima Atsushi tried hard to control the restless tiger in his body. In order not to cause a commotion, he temporarily changed his claws back and stared vigilantly at the man he bumped into.

He repeated to his partners the words that were clear in his memory: "For politicians with brains the size of a spoon but desires beyond that of ordinary people, Bai Qilin is their strongest weapon to ensure their international status. Therefore, as cowardly weaklings, they can turn a blind eye to all of Bai Qilin's evil deeds abroad... That's what Mr. Na Yue said."

Even though he had clearly realized a year ago how deeply Nakajima Atsushi had remembered that past experience, Akutagawa Ryunosuke still couldn't help feeling speechless in his heart: Is there no need to repeat Yue-san's sharp tongue?

The man opposite who had been listening to them talking without saying a word suddenly moved his neck and slowly raised his head to look over, as if at this moment he finally noticed them.

The man with silver hair, red eyes, and devilish looks - Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, his gaze obviously lingered when it met Nakajima Atsushi's face.

Unfortunately, Nakajima Atsushi was also stunned. The photos in the previous information were blurry, and he could not really see Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's appearance until this moment.

——I seem to have seen this person somewhere before.

The two of them had the same thought in their minds.

Shibuzawa Ryuhiko rarely had the thought of "I want to know who this person is". He knew everything that had happened so far very clearly, except that there was a gap in his memory seven years ago, and he could not remember what happened at that time no matter what.

He was very sure that he had never seen that boy - this face was indeed the original White Death of Mafia - and there was a high possibility that the boy was related to his lost memory.

"'White Kirin'... ah, I was called that before. To me now, that experience is really boring, so it's not worth remembering." Shibuzawa Ryuhiko smiled as usual, and said calmly, "But it seems that you know me at that time."

Nakajima Atsushi's danger alarm kept ringing, and he was so confused that he had no time to analyze the temptation hidden in Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's words. Or maybe it was because Nakajima Atsushi was not good at thinking about the language traps set by these smart people.

Until the age of fourteen, Nakajima Atsushi lived in an orphanage, and lived as an object of disgust by the director. This experience taught him to analyze other people's faces. Later, when he came to the port mafia, he did not correct this habit, which made him more sensitive to crises and murderous intent.

He felt it, he felt it from the moment he first saw her.

The man, Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, did not regard anyone around him as an independent existence. It was as if the people coming and going on the street were useless air that could be consumed at any time without leaving any impact.

Just like the saying goes, 'there is no value that is not engraved'.

Unlike Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, Nakajima Atsushi believed that his memory was intact, and he did not think that he had ever really seen the man who had caused Yokohama to flow with blood. Therefore, he quickly put aside the sense of familiarity and focused on dealing with the current situation.

This is not good, Nakajima Atsushi thought with his eyes slightly blank.

The document did mention that the White Kirin was defeated by Senior Chuuya, and the Dragon War ended because of that. Nakajima Atsushi knew that even though he had joined the Detective Agency, the supernatural power of the Moon Beast was successfully controlled and would not get out of control again.

But no matter in the past or now, he could never beat that Chuuya-senpai, so doesn't that mean he can't beat the White Kirin either!

If we add Kagamika and Akutagawa, we can give it a try, but this is a busy city and we can't expect them to show mercy to ordinary people if we fight.

Nakajima Atsushi put his hands behind his back and secretly made a gesture to Izumi Kyoka, who was petite and therefore blocked firmly by the two teenagers - he didn't know whether Bai Qilin could see it, but there was no other way now.

Let's delay a little bit...

"I don't know you, I just saw the information from that period." Nakajima Atsushi removed his gentle and soft expression at all times and spoke calmly to Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, his purple-gold eyes conveying an extremely sharp gaze, "I just want to ask, why?"

He asked half to delay, half seriously: "Why? You should not be a member of any underground organization. The information says that you just formed a small organization later and left it very cleanly. You obviously didn't gain any benefits from it, so why did you provoke that war in Yokohama at that time?"

The White Reaper of the Port Mafia is not only excellent in mission killing capabilities, he is also unable to intervene in the communication between his highly intelligent superiors, but he also has his own advantages. He can see from Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's actions that the opponent unexpectedly has no plans to attack them here, but is relatively calm.

His question was also raised for this reason.

When Shibozawa Ryuhiko did not get angry on the spot but chose to answer the question, Nakajima Atsushi breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had made the right bet.

"Because I was bored." The man smiled softly and said, "Someone told me that I might find what I wanted in this city, so I came here. Although it was boring and I didn't find what I wanted, I couldn't help but want to take the beautiful jewelry I saw along the way... Oh, is this idea difficult for you to understand, Nakajima Atsushi?"

Nakajima Atsushi took a half step back reflexively: "...What's wrong with you?!"

How did this person know his name? He was obviously taken to the Mafia after the Dragon War ended!

"I'm not interested in broken toys, but your ability is very interesting." Shibuzawa Ryuhiko avoided answering. He walked a little closer to Nakajima Atsushi and the other two. His long silver hair hanging behind him swayed slightly, and his blood-red pupils only reflected the figure of Nakajima Atsushi.

Shibuzawa Ryuhiko seemed to be amused by the sharp claws that were exposed again due to Nakajima Atsushi's conditional reflex. He followed his inner feeling and stretched out his hand towards the tiger claw, his eyes blurred for a moment: "Hehe... There is no need to call me White Qilin anymore, that is just a name for being abandoned. If it is now, they seem to call me--"

despair.

The air around them seemed to be still for a moment, and then, on the street where ordinary people had disappeared at some point, a hooded young man walked towards them with his hands in his pockets as if he was strolling in the garden.

"Collector, huh?" the young man said as he walked, interrupting Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's words rudely in a clean and clear voice.

"Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, 30 years old, is a suspect in the 'serial suicide incidents of superpowered people' that is being sought by superpowered special agents in various countries. He is suspected to be the instigator of 128 superpowered people's suicides as of a year ago, with more than 500 superpowered people killed*. He was also the mastermind of the Dragon War seven years ago... Of course, the suspicion and suspicion can be removed, right?"

The young man approached them and took off his hood, revealing a face that the three teenagers were extremely familiar with and felt at ease with.

The young man raised his hands and gathered them behind him, then smiled at Shibozawa Ryuhiko and nodded gently and politely: "I'm sorry that my child doesn't know not to chat with strange adults on the street."

Mr. Na Yue said sorry, but there was no trace of apology in his tone. He spoke as if it was a matter of course that "you are the one who should apologize."

The three people behind him thought in unison.

For some reason, when he saw the moon appearing in front of Akae, the calm smile on Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's face, which always looked like he was in control of the situation, disappeared.

"You, why are you here?" he asked.

Of course, Shibozawa Ryuhiko had seen the little actions between Nakajima Atsushi and Izumi Kyoka before, but he did not stop them because there was no need to. No matter who they were contacting, they would not arrive before he left.

He knew this, which is why he showed up in Yokohama at this time.

Akae Nazuki is naturally no exception. According to his and Fyodor's speculation, this person should still be in Tokyo, exhausted by the serial murders. At least until their plan begins to be implemented in Yokohama, this person will be lured back to Yokohama by any means.

"You're asking this." Chijiang Nayue made a thoughtful expression.

"Of course I came here because I wanted to see you." The black-haired young man said ambiguously and briskly, leaning forward, picking up a strand of cold silver hair with his fingers, and casually twisting it around his fingertips a few times, "How about it, are you surprised, Shibuzawa-kun?"

Akae Nayue suddenly smiled at Shibuzawa Ryuhiko with a crooked look in her eyes: "——I'm just kidding."

Because following other people's scripts step by step is really not his style.
