Chapter 232 Winter is Coming · Ending

When the alarm sounded throughout the organization's base, everyone in the room at the core changed their expressions in an instant.

"Go out and have a look." Karasuma Renyesa's hoarse voice came out of his mouth, and he frowned. When some people left and immediately went to the front of the organization to support, his sinister eyes turned to the black-haired man who was pressed to the ground. Before he could speak, the person who ran out before came back in a hurry.

"B... Boss, it's... it's the police! The police are coming in from outside..." The man was still covered in bruises and spoke incoherently. While he was talking, the communicator in the hand of the man standing next to Karasuma Renya vibrated twice. He picked up the phone and soon heard the same panicked voice from the other end. "

Oh no! The police... their people are coming in!" With the sound of a gunshot, the last words of the organization member on the other end were stuck in his throat. Soon, the police who had entered the organization's base and used a loudspeaker to persuade the surrender came from the communicator that was still hanging up.

"You are surrounded! Put down your weapons and squat down immediately with your heads in your hands - repeat! You are surrounded by the police, put down your weapons..."

Karasuma Renya finally had the strength to snatch the communicator. With a distorted face, he smashed it to the ground. After a few electronic sounds, the voice on the other side was completely cut off as the communicator shattered.

"Damn...where's Gin?!" The wrinkles on the old man's face were wrinkled together at this moment. His whole frail body was shaking slightly because of anger and disbelief. "Hurry up and contact Gin, let him bring people over! Quickly--!"

"Yes...yes!"

The man shuddered, not knowing what he thought of. He stretched out his hand and clicked a few times on the new communicator handed to him by the man next to him. He quickly sent a signal to the silver-haired man who should be in the laboratory at this time. The only response he got was the noise of the other party's communicator being damaged.

"Contact...cannot contact..." Before he could look up at the gentleman's expression, the ground suddenly shook. A huge explosion sounded in the distance, then came along the narrow corridor, and after squeezing through the thick doors and walls, only a dull sound remained.

"...What's that sound?" Karasuma Renya turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound, his face twisted and hesitant.

"It seems to be...the laboratory?" The man responded in a low voice. He immediately called the members in other positions. In less than a moment, the voices of the members who were originally stationed nearby came from there, "What's the situation over there?!" "

Laboratory! The laboratory exploded--!"

"What's inside there..." The man holding the communicator was stunned, and subconsciously asked the thing that the old man in the wheelchair cared about the most.

"The data are all in the lab! There's no...no way, the whole lab has exploded--"

Karasuma Renya squeezed the armrest of his subordinate's wheelchair fiercely. He seemed to be so angry about the loss of the experimental data that he wanted to crush his subordinate's iron face. However, considering his old body now, he estimated that in the end it would be him who would be crushed by this cold dead thing. He took a deep breath, his chest heaving violently, "Where's Gin?! Let Gin..."

"He's in the lab! I didn't see anyone coming out of channel C just now, and the guards of channels A and B have been...have been..." When the name flashed through his mind, the code member on the other end of the communicator shuddered. He looked at the guard whose throat was cut by a knife at his feet, and whispered the code name, "Cointreau...They were all killed by Cointreau!"

"Impossible?! This is impossible..." Karasuma Renya murmured, he opened his eyes that were about to turn blood red, and hatred like sewage soaked in them was reflected from them, "He is not trapped in the punishment room..."

"BOSS!"

As if to cut off the last bit of doubt in his heart, the communicator on one side flashed twice, and someone's panicked report came from the other end, "Cointreau...Cointreau escaped! He's not in the punishment room..."

The old man hit the surface of the wheelchair armrest hard, and his eyes trembled twice, "You guys go out immediately... to support them... Didn't you hear? Get out quickly!" The

people who were originally in the room seemed to think that they would not live long even if they stayed here, and could only follow the orders of the other party and make a final desperate struggle.

None of them expected that just when they left the core dark room to risk their lives to fight the police for this top boss who couldn't even move properly, Karasuma Renya calmly opened the surface of the wheelchair armrest at hand, revealing the controller hidden underneath. He pressed the top one, and the ground immediately shook. Four solid walls rose from all sides, surrounding the entire dark room like a fortress.

"I thought you really had the courage to fight to the death."

Looking at his movements, Tsukiyama couldn't help but sneered with his eyes narrowed. No one was holding his shoulders anymore, and the black-haired man with his hands tied slowly stood up from the ground, "In the end... you just found a reason to let them go out to die so that you can live in this rat cage."

"You go and hold him down..." Karasuma Renya looked at him with a gloomy face, and said to the only researcher left beside him and the one he trusted the most. After the researcher walked behind the black-haired man and forcefully controlled his hands that were tied behind his back, the gentleman seemed to have received some kind of guarantee and dared to push his wheelchair forward a few steps and come to the other side.

"It's you..." His voice came out of his throat, and the voice was particularly hoarse and low after being soaked in hatred and anger, and it echoed throughout the room, "You led them here."

"No, it's not me." Tsukiyama Asari raised the corner of his mouth and forced a smile at him, "You led them here yourself."

This sentence made the old man frown. He thought the other party meant that it was because of his evil deeds that the police would go to such great lengths to hunt him down. Karasuma Renya sneered and was about to say something, when he saw a flash of irony in those light-colored eyes.

"The coating you developed in your laboratory is of very good quality. It can block all of our signal retrieval." The black-haired man smiled and looked straight into the other's eyes, which suddenly widened. "Self-entangled... This word should really be engraved on your head and buried with you in the coffin."

After saying this, he shook his head and corrected himself, "No... You should not even have a grave, so let it rot with you on the side."

"Kill him!"

Karasuma Renya roared. This time his voice finally broke through the layers of restraints in his weak body and tore out from his throat. He narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Kill him immediately."

"A fool who only cares about his words..." Seeing the experimenter raised his hand. After the gun was against the black-haired man's forehead, the old man's chest rose and fell violently for a few times, and finally regained some dignity. He narrowed his eyes dangerously and said coldly, "Since those police dared to let you come in to die, they must have expected the final result... Without the laboratory's sedative, Cointreau will not live long! You two will meet in hell... Kill him!"

"You, should go to hell."

Yueshan Chaori's face quickly turned cold, and at the same time, the man quickly shouted in his heart.

'System! '

[I'm here. 】

After the mechanical sound rang out almost as soon as he said the word "yes", the black-haired man quickly pulled the handcuffs that bound his hands to the sides. With the strong pull, the system quickly opened the props redeemed from the mall, and with a "click" sound, the handcuffs broke. The man's

hands were left with two bloody marks due to the strong force. While his hands were struggling, he quickly lowered his head forward to avoid the several bullets fired by the researcher in panic, and then immediately stood up and stretched out his hand to avoid the gun in the other party's hand.

In order to ensure his own safety in the secret room, Karasuma Renya sent out all the members who were good at fighting, leaving only the researcher he trusted the most in charge of the research on "immortality". However, he did not expect that the man who had been in charge of experimental research for a long time could be knocked down by Tsukiyama Asari who had broken free from the handcuffs in a few moves even if he was holding a gun.

He snatched the dagger that was casually thrown on the ground before. The amulet that had been placed close to his heart finally became a weapon in his hand at this moment. Tsukiyama Asari used the dagger in his hand to pierce the researcher's palm holding the gun, and then took the gun and knocked him out with the butt of the gun.

When Tsukiyama Asari suddenly jumped up, Karasuma Renya knew that something was wrong. He controlled the wheelchair to move back to the space behind him, and immediately pressed the button at hand to activate the bomb in front. As

he moved, the black-haired man immediately ran forward, but was still blown away by the heat wave of the bomb. When he fell, his side and head hit the ground hard, and blood immediately flowed from his forehead.

Karasuma Renya flexibly controlled the wheelchair to move back with his fingers. As he moved on the button, the doors at the back opened and closed layer by layer, completely locking Tsukiyama Asari and the gasoline released from the machines on both sides due to the explosion.

The fire slowly rose, and when it burned the gasoline, it connected into a piece. Several thick doors blocked all the smoke, but the heat still came from that side.

Karasuma Renya panted softly, and he couldn't control his laughter from his throat, as if he had imagined the other party struggling desperately in the fire.

Since he couldn't escape, he couldn't escape...he must drag a few more people to be buried with him, let those who ruined his plan and prevented him from gaining eternal life...go to hell with him!

He laughed and controlled the wheelchair to turn around in the dark room at the back. The bombs on the Children's Palace and the foundation of the shopping mall above had already exploded before. The police were probably busy with the large number of victims inside.

....There is still a chance of escape.

A dark and greedy light flashed in Karasuma Renya's eyes.

As long as he can get out of here alive, while everyone else is focusing on the explosion and rescue,

he can leave through the secret passage he designed long ago, and then... as long as he is still alive, he can make a comeback, as long as he still holds the chips for eternal life... No, those data disappeared along with the laboratory, and he has nothing now!

The smile on the old man's face disappeared instantly when he thought of this. He gritted his teeth, and the hatred and anger on his face became even more intense, but his escape plan was not delayed at all.

As long as he could escape first, he could get back all the things he had lost...

Thinking this way, he was about to reach out to open the mechanism he had hidden when there was a sudden noise outside the door.

The last door that was originally tightly closed was actually slowly opened. It was a crack at first, and after the crack flashed a few times, it slowly widened and became a crack as wide as a palm.

The knife that was originally inserted into the crack was replaced by a pair of hands covered in dust and blood. Regardless of how hot the door in front of him was burned by the surging flames, Yueshan gritted his teeth and forcibly opened an opening from the inside.

There were still drops of blood on his face, and there were burn marks on his clothes and hands, but his eyes were hotter than the raging fire in the room.

"Don't try to run."

The man gritted his teeth and swallowed the blood that rose from his throat due to the impact of the explosion.

He tightly grasped the dagger that was hard enough to pry open the door of the dark room, but it also left deep scars in his palm. As if he didn't feel any pain, he stepped on the fire that poured into the room as the door opened, and walked towards Karasuma Renya who was sitting on the wheelchair at the other end of the darkness.

When he was about to walk in front of the old man, he was already behind the light. The bleak light that originally illuminated his face now shone on his black hair that he had just trimmed with a dagger. The shadow cast by the hair blocked most of his face, modifying the contours of his face and the color of his eyes, making him look more and more like Yu Gu Miao at this moment. The

black-haired man lowered his head, resting his hands on the wheelchair, narrowed his identical eyes, and looked at the wrinkled man in the wheelchair with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"Which of us is the fool who is just trying to get away with it?" The last two words came out softly from the man's lips that were not red.

"You..." Karasuma Renya's lips trembled, and then he finally smiled with great difficulty. He pinched the armrest of the wheelchair next to him with his shaking hands and said, "Even if you kill me, you can't leave here... There is no exit in this room."

"I have just detonated the bomb... Guess how many people in the Youth Palace on top of this base will be buried with us!" His hands were shaking, and an incomprehensible madness flashed in his eyes, "I... Since I can't survive, let's die together!"

Karasuma Renya's wrinkled face twisted into an ugly smile. He took out a small buckle from his sleeve and shouted, "And the bombs in the base... I have already activated the bombs in the base! You... You don't even think about leaving here. Before I die, I can drag you fearless... noble guys to be buried with me, so it's not a loss... And those people up there, all have to be buried with me... Bury with me in hell!"

"Not afraid of death?"

Yueshan Chaoli whispered the word. He reached out and dragged the old man on the wheelchair with his bleeding hands, staring into his eyes, "No, I am afraid of death."

"Everyone is afraid of death. The police who came to arrest you, the undercover agents lurking in the organization..." He stared at the old and unrecognizable face, his eyes filled with anger like the flames around him, but his voice was not heavy, "Everyone is afraid of death."

"Even if you are afraid of death, even if you still have relatives and friends, they still come. Because if they don't come, more people will die because of what you pursue, because this is their responsibility... and hope."

"Only you..."

Pulling out a sarcastic laugh from his throat, Tsukiyama Asahi gritted his teeth and whispered the name, "Karasuma Renya. Only you are afraid of death... Only you are so afraid of death that you use these drugs that shouldn't appear in the world to turn yourself into an old monster, only you are afraid of death so much that... you have harmed so many people!"

"Hell? You should go there by yourself. You should be there because the lives you destroyed were torn into pieces bit by bit!"

He threw Karasuma Renya, who he had lifted up, to the ground with all his strength, narrowed his eyes, and looked down at the old face.

"There is no exit......?"

He looked around under the vision covered by the instrument that others could not see. All the internal structures of the dark room were analyzed and placed in front of him one by one. The man's eyes flashed with understanding, and the sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth became even more intense.

"Why don't you leave yourself any way out."

A sneer overflowed from the corner of the man's mouth. He walked over slowly, stepped on Karasuma Renya's outstretched hand with his shoe sole, and reached for the controller with trembling hands, wanting to do something else, and then kicked the controller into the burning fire, "Let's die together..."

"You... are a cowardly rat who kills so many people just to survive. You don't have the courage to die together with others!" Tsukiyama Chao said, and directly grabbed Karasuma Renya's clothes and knocked him off the wheelchair to the ground on the side. The latter let out a hoarse scream and struggled forward to avoid the flames on the ground.

"You wouldn't lock all the passages, so I could pry open those secret doors. As long as it's not the last moment, you would drag your body... and crawl out, even if you had to pretend to be submerged in the ruins. Go and continue to be your... a rat that can only survive by sucking human blood!"

Sure enough, there was a very thin long horizontal line on the back of the wheelchair that had been blocked by the man sitting in the wheelchair. The black-haired man quickly pried open the metal plate with a sharp blade, revealing the mechanism underneath that required a fingerprint to open.

"We will die together..."

Tsukiyama Asari looked at Karasuma Renya, who could not stand up and could only crawl on the ground, and repeated this ironic word. He closed his eyes and even clenched his hands at his side into fists. "These four words are disgusting when they come out of your mouth." He

was disgusted.

He pulled the other's hand, which was only a layer of wrinkled skin, and turned on the mechanism.

The deepest wall suddenly shook a few times and moved to the side, revealing a door leading to another secret passage.

"No... No——!" Karasuma Renya's face was finally covered by despair. The fire finally spread to the whole room, burning everything. "Wait..."

Tsukiyama turned a deaf ear to the inside, just walked forward quickly and opened the door.

"Wait... Wait..." Karasuma Renya said hoarsely, using his hands and feet to slowly crawl forward, "Take... Take me away... I... I can give you..."

He opened his mouth and suddenly remembered that he had nothing, "Eternal life... I can help you achieve eternal life, and..."

This word that made him tend to destroy one life after another did not stop the black-haired man's steps. He walked out of the door, turned his head to look at the man with a twisted face in the fire, and reached out to close the door.

All the screams, pleas, and shouts were blocked by the heavy door that Karasuma Renya had made.

Tsukiyama ran along the corridor and out. When he ran less than a few meters away, the members who were asked by Karasuma Renya to stop the police activated the bombs when they ran out of ammunition.

Originally, there were only a few people blocking the door, but no one expected that the gentleman had buried explosives under the entire organization without their knowledge, dreaming that if they were discovered, they could blow up the base and fake their death and escape.

Several bombs in the core chamber were detonated first. The black-haired man gritted his teeth and ran forward faster, but he was still affected by the explosion. After the bomb exploded next to him for the nth time, he finally couldn't help but cover his chest and spit out a mouthful of blood on the ground.

Damn...

The amount of this bomb is estimated to cause the upper level of the Youth Palace, which has a relatively stable foundation, to collapse, blocking the exit of the entire base near the Youth Palace.

The exit from the mountain was blown up early. If the exit here is blocked, coupled with the fire spread by the explosion, I'm afraid everyone inside is in danger now.

"Towards--!"

Before he could think about anything else, an anxious shout came from a distance.

After interrogating Karasuma Renya's location, Amuro Toru, who ran over here the first time, finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the familiar black-haired man. He took a few steps to help the man up, and asked while continuing to rush towards the exit, "Where is the boss?"

"In the secret room."

To be precise, it was in the secret room that had just exploded.

Amuro Toru nodded and didn't ask anything else. He had bullet scratches and wounds from the explosion all over his body, but his movements were not affected at all. He quickly ran to the fork in the road with the person he was supporting, "Matsuda! Notify others to evacuate from the underground quickly--!"

"I've already notified them."

Matsuda Jinpei's face was full of sternness. After he confirmed that Tsukiyama was safe, the tension on his face receded and was replaced by another kind of anxiety. "Hurry up, if we don't go out, the entrance will be blocked!"

Amuro Toru nodded. They gritted their teeth and continued to run outside in the shaking passage. When there was one last fork in the road, the whole ground suddenly shook violently. It was like something... a huge thing collapsed. The sound came from above and hit everyone's head, on the ceiling of the base. The

huge sound and the violent vibration that followed made everyone stop and hold on to the wall to stabilize their body.

"...The Youth Palace has collapsed." Yueshan Chaoli was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted. He turned around and shouted to the many policemen who had already run to the exit after receiving the notice, "Go--!"

"Hurry up!" Jinpei Matsuda pulled up several members of the action team who were shaken to the ground and unable to stand up, and shouted, "Hurry! The entrance is about to collapse! Hurry up!"

It was too late.

In fact, everyone knew that it was too late.

Even though they were only a dozen meters away from the door, it would collapse in a moment. But no one stopped, they continued to run towards the only exit with all their strength, behind them were layers of heat waves caused by explosions and flames.

No one gave up hope at this moment.
