Chapter 200 Twenty-five Presidents
On the empty street, two young men with almost identical faces were fighting. The thick fog did not seem to block their vision, and the sounds of their fists and feet hitting each other were particularly clear at this moment.
After a few more probing moves, Kleinju temporarily retreated, and Chijiang Nayue did not choose to attack immediately. Instead, he calmly observed the mutant on the opposite side, analyzing all of the opponent's previous moves in his mind at a high speed, and finally came to a conclusion.
Kleinjuku completely replicates all of his fighting techniques.
To be precise, Kleinjut is a special ability that virtualizes the real world. Even if it becomes independent and becomes a humanoid, it still only has the most basic effect of virtualizing reality. Without authorization, it cannot use other people's special abilities like him.
Because objectively speaking, it was he who actually learned those supernatural powers, not Kleinjut. Unless he actively recognized it, Kleinjut could use that part of the ability.
As a supernatural being, Kleinjuku also replicates all of its master's combat abilities and possesses the same combat habits as him.
In this situation, even if one person and one superpower can only fight in hand-to-hand combat, Kleinjutsu will not be crushed and at a disadvantage from the beginning - it should be so. In fact, superpowers have no physical strength restrictions, and they will definitely win if they fight a war of attrition.
However, this was not the first time that Akajinazuki had fought with a "copy of himself".
The young man's psychic body disappeared from Chijiang Nayue's sight for a second, and when it reappeared, Kleinhu's leg was sweeping towards his hips, but the latter had anticipated it and grabbed its ankle with his left hand and pulled it down, then swung a straight punch. When the opponent subconsciously raised his arm to block it, he released his left hand and then changed his palm into a fist to hit the opponent's abdomen, which was temporarily unguarded.
Bang!
After a few minutes of tentative fighting with the opponent, the supernatural being with a red glow all over its body was punched into the wall by Chijiang Nayue who had already figured out the situation and stopped pretending.
As a supernatural power, Kleinjufu felt no pain or bleeding, so it just pouted and began to lie on the wall and rot.
"Really? I thought I could take advantage of the situation and give you a few more punches. Thanks to this mist, I really want to kill you and take your place, Master?"
Chijiang Nayue could tell that this guy was hinting to him that Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's mist would amplify the conflicts and opposing positions between the special powers and their original owners, forcing them to kill each other.
This is not difficult to think of.
Since Klein's Kettle is his superpower, he will be the person who knows Sigma best in this world. If it is not necessary, Klein's Kettle will not help Sigma deal with the superpower in advance.
Can you expect Kleinju to be so enthusiastic when he makes such a sharp complaint on his master's character board? And he is talking to a younger brother who was an enemy not long ago.
Kleinju would do that, and Chijiang Nayue guessed that if the psychic was alive, he would do something to Sigma, which would easily disrupt their internal communication. This is probably the real answer to his psychic ability of "meddling".
So at this time, Chijiang Nayue just looked at the mutant who looked exactly like her with a frown in front of her, and said in a cheerful voice: "Eh - is that so? I thought you were just here to play with me."
He said as a matter of course: "After all, you are too weak to kill me."
This time it was Kleinju's turn to have his mouth twitch.
How ignorant is its owner, he actually thinks the character it imitates deserves a beating... He is the one who speaks the most ruthlessly!
"Tsk." Kleinju muttered, shook his head, and revealed the ruby under his hair. He urged, "Okay, let me go back quickly. If I stay outside and talk to you for one more word, I might get mad to death."
Chi Jiang Na Yue's fingertips finally stopped in front of the gem and did not fall.
He moved his hand away and looked at the very similar face in front of him for a while: "Now that you are here, don't think about going back to rest so soon."
The real little devil smiled sweetly and scanned Kleinju's entire body with subtle and satisfied eyes.
Kleinjutsu remembered that in his memory, when he was a non-conscious supernatural being, he must have seen the other party give him such a look...
I remember.
"Let's cooperate." The little devil said slowly.
...When Chijiang Nayue wanted to trick others into becoming his cheap labor.
—
Since it was still daytime, most of the people in the detective agency were still at their workstations. And because of the commission from the government for the "Five Degenerations of Heaven" case, almost all members of the agency were present.
So the moment the thick fog spread outside the window, they noticed something was wrong.
Nakajima Atsushi, who was standing by the window and communicating with Bloom, subconsciously wanted to summon the tiger claw, but his action soon froze in place.
——I can’t sense it anymore, supernatural power.
Forget about his supernatural power, Tsukushimon, now he can't even sense a single tiger hair! This effect first reminded him of Dazai Osamu who possessed the supernatural power of nullification, and then he thought of Shibuzawa Ryuhiko who had just escaped from the detective agency in a tense atmosphere not long ago.
"Ran..." Nakajima Atsushi wanted to turn around and ask Edogawa Ranpo what to do next, but was shocked to find that Edogawa Ranpo was no longer at his workstation. Also missing were Kudo Shinichi, who had come to the detective agency a few minutes ago and had a good chat with Mr. Ranpo.
Isn't it said that people with special abilities will just have their abilities separated... Could it be that Mr. Ranpo is actually an ordinary person? !
The former guerrilla leader of Gang Hei couldn't control himself and showed a shocked expression.
You must be kidding. Mr. Ranpo, who has such buggy reasoning ability, has no special abilities. Doesn't this prove that his reasoning ability is just a hack because of the human brain? Wow, no wonder Mr. Nazuki once told him privately that Mr. Ranpo was his idol!
Unfortunately, reality did not give him much time to think divergently. Akutagawa Ryunosuke, his partner for a year, called out loudly, calling back Nakajima Atsushi's consciousness.
“Get out of the way!”
Out of absolute trust in his partner, Nakajima Atsushi's body was one step faster than his brain and he rolled to the side from where he was. It was this trust that prevented his neck from being grazed by the snow-white sharp teeth without being actually bitten.
Nakajima Atsushi's back was covered in sweat. He looked over and happened to meet the eyes of the vampire lord who had failed in his attack.
The other party's blood-red eyes, which were originally filled with fatigue, were now unconscious, with only hunger visible to the naked eye. For some reason, a very unknown ruby was faintly visible on his forehead.
From the brief conversation just now, Nakajima Atsushi has learned that Bloom's brain is now chained to his body by the sword inside his body, which makes it impossible for him to restore his original complete body. He can only rely on sleep to survive, and has been sleeping in the coffin for many years.
Although the opponent was originally a human, his body had long been transformed by his vampire powers into a being that was absolutely similar to the vampire in literary works. Anyone bitten by Bloom would also be transformed into a new vampire, and so on.
So here comes the problem.
A vampire lord who has been hungry for many years...what would be on his menu?
Nakajima Atsushi fully understood the intention of Ranpo-san to let him, Akutagawa and Kagamika carry out this commission together - they must stop Blum before he makes a mistake! No new vampire followers can be allowed to appear in Yokohama! !
"Mr. Kunikida! You retreat from other places!" Nakajima Atsushi made a quick decision and cooperated with Akutagawa to lead Bloom out of the detective agency. Izumi Kyoka hid in the shadows as usual, waiting for the moment to deliver the fatal blow, "Let's go in the opposite direction!"
Kunikida Doppo didn't say much, he just reached out and pulled out two armor-piercing bullets and a loaded gun from the drawer of the table and threw them to the young member who didn't have the ability of White Tiger. Nakajima Atsushi caught it when he had time and threw the gun back to Akutagawa Ryunosuke.
He has physical skills to hold on for a while longer, but we don't know whether Akutagawa has lung disease... So, to be on the safe side, it would be better for Akutagawa to use a gun.
"Mr. Ranbu ordered that the gun be loaded with silver bullets. It should be able to cause damage to vampires!"
Before the others led Bloom to jump downstairs of the detective agency, Kunikida Dopo gave them one last instruction: "Be careful, the three of you!"
It has to be said that Kunikida's concerns are not unreasonable.
Blum and his psychic powers were in a fused state, so Long Yan couldn't separate them. In the end, he had to find a bug and wiped out Blum's sanity, leaving him in the confused state of a psychic while still in his original body. He could only move and fight with his vampire powers, but for Blum, this was probably enough.
After all, the three people in front of him, who are still called "children" by Akae Nazuki, are now unable to use their special abilities.
To make matters worse, after several attempts by Nakajima Atsushi and his two companions, they were only able to trap Bloom in the middle. Although this prevented him from escaping and infecting others to become vampires, it also meant that they could do nothing to Bloom.
Akutagawa only had a few silver bullets in his gun and he had to shoot at the most critical moment, so he had to hold back for the time being.
Sigma drove the white Mazda over at this time. He leaned half of his body out of the window and shouted to the three people in panic: "That gem! The gem on his head is his weakness——!"
The fact that his weakness was exposed gave Bloom another chance to prepare for action, but Akutagawa Ryunosuke on the opposite side was no deaf either. As soon as the vampire jumped up, he raised his gun and aimed at the ruby on the opponent's forehead.
If he fired this shot, not only would the gem shatter, but the vampire's head would also explode like the watermelon in the summer watermelon game, right? Maybe this would be a way to eliminate a future disaster for the detective agency.
As long as this vampire exists, the possibility of a crisis in Yokohama will not decrease...
He tightened his finger on the trigger, only to yell, "Mirror Flower!" as Blem swooped in to bite his hand.
The girl hidden in the blind spot of his sight jumped down from the air. Akutagawa Ryunosuke threw away his gloves without hesitation, put his hands together and let Kagamika step on them to gain leverage to jump again, and rushed straight towards the oncoming vampire. When they passed by each other, their dark blue and silver-white long hair entangled together for a moment.
Izumi Jinghua threw the dagger in her hand up and caught it, then turned it around and tapped the ruby on Blum's forehead lightly with the handle of the dagger.
When she landed lightly on the ground, the ruby shattered into powder.
"Mission accomplished."
The three of them took turns high-fiving each other in tacit understanding.
However, things did not end so easily.
Sigma brought them the information that Akae Nayue wanted to bring - fight with your own superpower and get your superpower back.
Immediately behind the four people came a tiger roar.
"Well... there's another tough battle to fight next." Nakajima Atsushi said with a headache, "I hope it can be over soon. I want to get to the Skeleton Station as soon as possible."
Otherwise, if he was a step slower, Mr. Nayue would have scattered Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's ashes, right? Oh, sorry, Mr. Nayue is not a member of the mafia now... so he should be arrested and sent to the Metropolitan Police Department?
By the way, should Shibuzawa Ryuhiko be related to the Special Forces Division or the Metropolitan Police Department?
Nakajima Atsushi fell into deep thought.
