Chapter 126
At the corner of the base's medical room, the organization's newly recruited codenamed killer had thick plaster and bandages on his arms, his steps were noticeably slow, and the most tragic thing was that there was not a single intact purple scar on his body.
"It's a very pitiful sight. But it's a little funny to tell others that they were able to escape after the explosion."
At rest, the ceremony is over!
The woman's lazy voice with a smile echoed in the empty corridor, and the killer's already sinister face darkened even more.
"There won't be a next time."
The killer gritted his teeth and suddenly changed the subject, complaining angrily: "So why do you have to let me use bombs? The censorship in that hotel is so strict, there is no time to deploy it!"
"A nosy psychic suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Isn't this a serious mistake made by those useless people in the intelligence department?"
As she was cursing, something suddenly flashed through her mind. She frowned and slowly recalled: "But to be honest, the reaction of the experimenter that the organization wanted to eliminate was the strangest. He actually asked me "How many people have seen the photos?", as if he knew everything. "
The killer angrily cursed a few more times, but Vermode was in no mood to listen any more. She reached out and pressed his shoulder, applying some force, her beautiful eyes narrowed, "What else did the subject you mentioned say?"
The killer tried to pull her apart in pain, but due to the angle he couldn't use much strength, so he had to force himself to answer: "You even asked me if I did a background check before you attacked me - that's not my job. That's all."
Bermode's eyebrows twitched, and deep thought flashed across his eyes.
Not long after, she regained her graceful and mysterious self as a witch, and tidied the killer's bandages as if nothing had happened: "You just said, "There won't be a next time"? "
"There is indeed no chance, but it's you." Bermode curled her red lips, "The mission has been changed."
The killer was startled and stared at her suspiciously: "Who changed?"
Bermode waved his hand, and when the other party came closer reluctantly, he deliberately slowed down his speech.
The next second, she saw with satisfaction that the other person's face turned pale and blue, and his usually aggressive mouth became mute and unable to utter a word.
"Because of the failure last time, the target will certainly be wary. If the mission fails again because of you, the consequences will be unpredictable."
"Don't blame me for not warning you - it's on your own."
There was only one person left in the corridor again. After standing there for a long time, the killer collapsed to the floor, leaning against the wall.
"This is bad..." She murmured weakly with a blank look in her eyes, "Do I still have a chance to quit the organization now...?"

----
After coming out of the training ground at the hot spring villa, Kono Seiryoshi was offline from this beautiful world for three days.
The moment he woke up and saw the light brown wooden ceiling, he almost thought he had traveled through time again while sleeping.
Illusion training tests one's spirit, but when the tutor's name is Hibari Kyoya, even one's mind is destroyed.
"The mental strength is barely adequate." After some training, Yun Que's clothes were not messed up at all, and he glanced at him with the corner of his eye as he was unable to get up again.
"As for Taijutsu."
Yun Shou chuckled, showing his indifference and ridicule, "It would be faster to just remake it."
…
"It doesn't matter."
After struggling to get up, Kono Seira looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and said to the system: "This level of venomous tongue will not defeat me."
Light Ball Doubtful Life: […Really?]
He showed a relieved expression, "Because, I'm used to it."
However, illusion training is really effective. At least, Gong Ye Shengliang feels that if he meets those familiar faces again now, he has the confidence that he will not waver again.
"Just grab those illusions when you encounter them," he mused, "It's rare to have such realistic effects."
Light Ball: [……]
The light ball took a deep breath and said in a heavy tone: [Contractor, regarding the progress of the mission in the previous world, there are some problems with the judgment criteria. In short, it is still in a state of chaos.]
[But that’s not the point. Don’t be afraid of what I’m going to say next.]
Kono Seiryoshi: “?”
Kono Seiryoshi: "I have a bad feeling... Please wait a moment, I have a call."
The phone started buzzing and he looked at the caller ID in surprise and had to disconnect the system first.
"Giorno? What's the matter?"
It was only two o'clock in the morning in Italy, and this unusual call deepened his feeling of uneasiness.
"I'm sorry, we were delayed for some time while verifying the facts. Now the incident has been investigated to the point where it is almost complete."
The sound of the electric current was slightly distorted. Giorno spoke, still in a gentle and polite tone, but Kono Seiryoshi keenly sensed a hint of solemnity in his words.
"Before I tell you the results, I would like to ask you a question. Is that okay?"
Kono Seiryoshi paused and hesitated for two seconds: "...Is it related to the assassination?"
"Yes."
"Okay," he nodded. "Ask me, and I'll do my best to answer."
Giorno murmured an apology and paused for two seconds before continuing, "I heard that you had a car accident a year ago."
"Do you remember the details?"
Kono Seiryoshi's eyes widened, as if he didn't understand his question: "...Huh?"
…
…
"Kimino...Kimino?"
After being called several times in succession, Gongye Shengliang suddenly came back to his senses and met his colleague's concerned eyes, "You don't look well, are you feeling unwell?"
He forced a smile and said, "Sorry, I slept too late last night."
My colleague nodded sympathetically, "You just arrived in Japan. You don't need to come to work so early. You have helped us a lot." He glanced out the window and advised, "The weather is not good today. Go home and rest early."
Unable to refuse such kindness, Gongye Shengliang had no choice but to say goodbye to them. He lived not far from the company, so he took his umbrella and walked home slowly.
Since the end of the call with Giorno that day, the system has been unresponsive as if it had suddenly shut down. I haven't finished the last conversation yet, and I always feel uneasy.
After waiting at the intersection for a while, when the green light came on, passers-by holding umbrellas walked across the road like a stream of water.
Kono Seiyoshi should have followed the crowd, but before he could take a step, he saw something and stopped where he was.
Amid the sound of car horns approaching from afar, the sky was overcast and raindrops fell from the umbrella in strings, blurring his vision.
He did have an accident, and it was also a rainy day like this.
Walking on the crosswalk on the street, the briefcase contained the decisive evidence obtained from the drug dealer. As long as it was brought back to Vongola, the power of the committee could be used for arbitration.
The notorious enemy, the government that colluded with the government, and the alliance that chose to betray for the sake of profit. The Vongola was in a difficult situation under the attack from both sides. Not only the guardians, but even the tenth generation was busy day and night. The smile she showed when she saw him was still gentle, but she couldn't hide her fatigue.
But it will be over soon - he thought so on his way back.
However, it was as if he wanted to let his wish go unfulfilled. The next second, time disappeared, an out-of-control car rushed towards him, and an umbrella fell out.
By the time I came to my senses, the warm liquid gushing out of my body had soaked through my shirt and I could no longer stand up.
…
The green light countdown ended, the yellow light flashed twice, and then turned red.
Kono Seiryoshi still stood at the intersection without moving.
He thought back to his conversation with Giorno yesterday.
[“I think you may have found out the boss’s true identity during your investigation.”]
Giorno smiled bitterly, "Diablo is very cautious and will try to eliminate any existence that is unfavorable to him. In addition, his stand ability is very tricky, and my companions almost died here."
[“The car accident disguised as an accident failed, and he couldn’t do it in Xixili, but he never gave up on assassinating you.”]
[“I will handle Italy, but I heard you went to Japan, please be careful.”]
…
Kono Seiryoshi felt an inexplicable palpitation, as if it came from deep within his consciousness. His heartbeat was so fast that he could not help but hold on to the handle of his umbrella.
A faint sound of electric current rang in his mind, and before he could react, everything in front of him went dark.
[Hello, Shengliangjun.]
Gongye Shengliang's heart sank.
Someone was talking to him, but it wasn't the system.
The strange male voice called out his name directly, the voice was sweet and intimate, "As a companion with the same ability, let me introduce myself for the time being."
[I am Bai Lan.] The voice suggested cheerfully and briskly: [How about destroying this disgusting world?]
...What is this person talking about? He sounds like a villain.
[…Although I don’t know how you got in,] Gongye Shengliang said slowly, [Please allow me to refuse.]
He lowered his eyes and his voice became cold: [Also, I am not used to being called a companion by people I don’t know, so please don’t call me that.]
[Hey, do you think you want to see me?] Bai Lan pretended not to understand and ignored his hostility, [If there is a chance, it will be soon.]
[Don't reject me so quickly,] he said in a coquettish tone, but the malice in his voice was not concealed at all, [No matter which world it is, it's very harsh on you.]
Gongye Shengliang didn't want to talk to him any more: [Where is the system?]
"I can do what that little thing does," Bai Lan said with a smile, a bit boastful, "and I also have wings."
[To prove this point, let me help you.] When his smile faded, the indifference and contempt that looked down on everyone could hardly be concealed.
[Proof of the incurable badness of this world.]
Gongye Shengliang's eyes widened, and an ominous premonition reached its peak at this moment. In a panic, he directly called out his name: [Bai Lan!]
But it was too late to stop it, and he seemed to hear an almost negligible snort of laughter.
The next second, consciousness sank uncontrollably into darkness.
