Chapter 8: The Ceiling
Island nation, Kanto region, in an underground casino.
Char Suzuki, who was holding a metal baseball bat, was sitting on the back of a big man at this moment, "It would be nice to pay back the money early, if you don't let me do it, bastard things, kill you!"
"Yes, yes...... I'm sorry, big brother, I promise that I won't be in arrears in the future, guarantee, guarantee!"
"Get out!"
Char Suzuki stood up, and after a few taps of the metal baseball bat in his hand, several men ran out of the room in panic - after that, Char Suzuki put the baseball bat on the table, and looked at a ten-year-old child sitting quietly next to him in the room.
"Little ghost, have you seen clearly, if you encounter a debt that you don't repay, you must beat them to death! If you beat them up and are afraid, they will obediently repay the money! These people basically don't have no money to repay, but they just don't want to pay it back. β
"Why?" the child asked curiously.
"You can do whatever you want to eat it, but when you want to spit it out, you don't want to live or die, what else can you have, one word, greed!" "Suzuki Char plucked her ears, "You've been following me to collect debts for almost two months." Next time, when you come, I'll watch from the sidelines, and I won't get the money back, and I won't give me food!
"Oh. β
Looking at the appearance of this bear child, I don't know if I heard it, Suzuki Char rubbed his eyebrows...... Only at this moment, the room suddenly went dark, like a power outage.
Char Suzuki was not afraid of the sudden darkness, including the child who was sitting in the corner...... Because the child has been told all the time that he can't just open his eyes β but that doesn't mean he can't see food.
The child has vision similar to night vision goggles β even with his eyes closed.
I saw that Suzuki Char looked up for some reason at this time, as if to look at the sky - but this is underground.
His face was frightened, his eyes widened, and then he put his hands on his head, showing a look of pain, and slowly fell to his knees...... Until, after this brief power outage, the room was lit up again.
The child subconsciously walked to Char Suzuki's side and reached out to touch his shoulder...... I found that my shoulders were still shaking slightly.
Suzuki Char waved his hand suddenly at this time, "Don't touch me!"
It's like I'm still scared of something.
......
Prarayam Basin, Pathum Thani, Thailand.
It seems to answer the 80s and 90s of the last century, with low floors, dirty and crowded city streets.
In an ordinary hotel in the town, a black man was doing a very difficult Russian push-up at this time, and judging by his sweating state, I am afraid that it has been a while.
Abbas, a black South African, has fought in seventeen minor wars, is adept at using a variety of explosive tools, has first-class hand-to-hand combat skills, and can hold his breath underwater for up to five minutes, and is now a demoman among the 'EOK' mercenaries......
Abbas's profile quickly flashed through the mind of a man with an Eastern face sitting by the window at this time.
The man should not be very old, with a flat head, facial features like a knife, and a beard...... Wang Yuechuan - but his name at this time is Kai.
Kai is the name that disguises his identity, and his identity has completely changed to become a soldier in a field unit who has fled for his life because he has committed homicide.
About two months ago, he followed the instructions of the organization, showed that he went to Xiangjiang, and after half a month of self-training, he used Xiangjiang's fishing boat to smuggle into Thailand, and finally connected with the mercenary group called 'EOK', and after passing the test, he officially became a member of 'EOK' and was assigned to be with Abbas.
Wang Yuechuan's current character is a taciturn person.
Looking at the lively streets outside the window, Wang Yuechuan ...... Kai flicked the butt out of his cigarette - despite his success in joining EOK, he still couldn't get any more information, couldn't find out more about the mercenary group, and hadn't even officially participated in their operations.
Although I have officially joined, I am afraid that it will take several missions before I can truly become a member...... Undercover is a very long job, and it is also a job that accompanies time and becomes more and more dangerous.
In 'EOK', every mercenary has a strong individual combat ability, otherwise it would not be possible to enter the forefront of the international mercenary group with only ninety-nine members...... In this group of people, relying only on his own combat strength, Kai asked himself that he could only be included in the sixty members of this group of thugs.
But if you use the power of the Book of the Dead, it will be a different story...... But that's an ability that can't be easily used in front of people.
However, the quality of the middle and lower class is enough for him to be recognized, and there is no need to show more. Moreover, he could not show any anxious emotions, because he was a taciturn man.
"Hoo ......"
Abbas, the black man, had finished his training, and now he got up and became more energetic, "I'm hungry, go get something to eat, yellow-skinned monkey!"
Abbas liked to call the Orientals yellow-skinned monkeys. In addition to Kai, there are also several yellow people in the 'EOK', who come from different countries in Southeast Asia. But in Abbas's mouth, they are all called yellow-skinned monkeys.
Of course, this is not a provocation, but it is difficult for simple Asians to distinguish between blacks, and it is difficult for blacks to distinguish between yellows...... Probably.
Kay didn't speak, gave Abbas a casual look, and continued to look out the window.
For this eccentric Kai, Abbas is no longer surprised. He shrugged, didn't speak, and went out the door on his own.
Kai still looked out the street, and his current identity made him spend every day in extreme tension, as if he was being watched by something all the time...... Is it the 'EOK' people, and they still can't trust themselves, or is it the people who assigned themselves this time, the people of the organization...... They can't trust themselves?
Kai lit another cigarette.
He has never smoked, and in just over two months, he has made smoking a daily routine.
Suddenly there was an exclamation from the street, and the whole street was completely darkened in an instant...... It's just that the stoves in the streets are still lit.
Kai looked farther away, and it was also pitch black.
Is there a power outage, he thought to himself.
But he didn't pay too much attention to it, but felt that after the whole world suddenly darkened, there was a more comfortable feeling.
The feeling of being watched is gone...... Kai smiled and slowly closed his eyes, enjoying the rare silence - but the moment he closed his eyes, he felt an inexplicable fear.
Kai suddenly opened his eyes, only to feel a layer of cold sweat oozing from his forehead. He looked out the window again blankly...... Or.
What he didn't know was that the sight that existed all the time had not left...... I just looked somewhere else.
looked at the night.
On the roof of a small building not far away, the black shadow was crawling on the ground in fear, trembling.
"My master, why are you so angry......
......
In the dark moonlit hemisphere, the ocean rioted at some point...... In half of the Pacific Ocean, there are countless huge whirlpools.
The undercurrent beneath the sea has risen to the surface, and the sea is so dark that it looks like a giant mouth that eats people.
A large number of seaspouts rolled up into the sky in an instant, one by one, one by one, like countless giant pillars connecting the sky.
The air seemed to have frozen and become heavy.
In an instant, the palpitations of uneasiness and fear spread like the speed of light to the hemisphere under the moonlit night.
All those who have power feel death at hand.
Trembling.
Curled up.
The evil people in the world are terrified at this moment, and kindness seems to be spurned by the world......
Until, the light was restored.
Everything is back to the ordinary night ten seconds ago.
......
In the lobby, Dazhe, who was wiping the Zhan Lu sword, frowned, and after feeling a moment of dizziness, he shook his head vigorously, and subconsciously looked at the maid lady who was busy in front of the counter.
But at this moment, a figure rushed out from upstairs...... Nero, whose face was covered in ink, said, "I'm going to do it, I'm ready!!"
Big eyes with big excitement.
"Yoya... Miss?" Dazhe ignored Nero.
The maid put down the cup she was wiping...... When the cup was steady, under the feet of Youye, one ring after another of terrifying black flames instantly burned the entire lobby floor. The black flames on the ground began to transform, connecting into complex symbols.
Suddenly, something seemed to rise slowly from this huge black flame array...... A spear!
If you look closely, it's a spear with a banner rolled.
Weapons!
Dazhe and Nero's faces changed slightly: they had never seen this maid lady hold a weapon...... Or, I haven't seen a time when she's really serious.
From the first moment of taking a photo, he will be killed...... This is the only thing Dazhe can feel at this time.
It's just that this terrifying atmosphere disappeared almost in an instant...... The black flames burning on the floor dissipated instantly.
The boss's voice sounded right here, "I'm fine, you don't have to come...... Just me, just rudely sneezed. β
The boss didn't come back, it was just his voice - but no one in the room would suspect that it wasn't the boss's voice.
Miss Maid, who was holding the gun flag, let go of her palm at this time, and the gun flag also flickered and disappeared.
"GOOD NIGHT...... Miss?"
The maid lady of the club picked up the cup again at this time, wiped it slowly, and said indifferently: "We just need to obey all the orders of the master." β
......
......
Time stands still...... In this area, at least, for a short period of time, everything was still, as if it had completely detached into another dimension.
Under the night sky in front of the balcony, a little bit of blue light converged...... A short time later, the blue-haired and blue-eyed administrator Alaya Ukiyo appeared.
Slowly open your eyes, as if you have just woken up from a slumber...... Alayah appeared in a slightly lower position than the boss on the balcony.
[003 sub-world space fragmentation degree 21.35%...... Ask if you need to perform a procedure to destroy the world. γ
Alaye, who had no emotion, looked at the boss on the balcony without blinking...... Even though it is dark, it does not block its view. It's just that it can't see clearly what the root authority holder looks like at this moment.
Chaos.
It was a chaotic face, with only two rounds of light, like eyes.
It seems like a long time has passed, like a moment when you just snap your fingers...... The face that can only be described by chaos gradually regained its clarity.
"I have no intention of changing the proposal I gave you last time...... I'm sorry for shattering the space of the subworld. Luo Qiu sighed slowly, "If you can't fix it completely, I'll take action." β
[The maximum allowable repair and crushing range is 32.16%, which is sure to be perfectly repaired]
Boss Luo nodded and said indifferently: "If there is a next time, I will pay attention...... We will try to control it within this level. You...... Let's go back, I want to be still, the stillness here flows according to the normal time, and it will be ten minutes before it starts. β
γUnderstanding ......γ
......
......
"Outage, power outage?"
It felt like at least ten minutes had passed, but it was like a few breaths before the world suddenly darkened, but soon the light returned to it.
"Maybe it's the peak period of electricity consumption, alternating current, short power outages are more common. Luo Qiu said indifferently.
The cold weather in the south has not yet passed, and it is not a summer night, so what about the ghost during the peak period of electricity consumption? Song Ying opened her mouth, and in the end she still did not say such words.
There are simple rattan chairs and tables on the balcony, which is a place to drink tea and read books on weekdays. Luo Qiu sat down and motioned for Song Ying to sit down as well, just so that the curtains blocked the view of the living room.
It's just that one ear is quietly sticking to the glass inside.
Luo Qiu knocked on the glass of the sliding door, and the owner of the ear muttered indignantly, and hid back in dismay.
"Your mother...... Well, Miss Ren seems to be afraid of you. Song Ying smiled wryly, not knowing when she had recovered...... Restore yourself to your original self.
"Tell me about it. Luo Qiu looked at Song Ying, "Before and after these things." What you just said was not an accident, but a man-made ......"
This is the Luo Qiu in Song Ying's impression, not the Luo Qiu who made people feel afraid a while ago, the Luo Qiu who would be pulled out by himself in the middle of the night and not get angry, and would make a breakfast carefully. Song Ying subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and blurted out Luo Qiu's words, "That... You're really not angry anymore?"
Luo Qiu looked at Song Ying without blinking.
Song Ying shrunk her neck, after all, she was scared again...... She whispered, "Wrong...... You go on and say, I won't interject......"
Luo Qiu sighed, "That's all for the problem, since you are here, you should have found something, let's talk about it." β
Song Ying quietly glanced at the living room, and sure enough, she saw that Ren Ziling was still watching with wide eyes at this time - just far away, sitting on the sofa, holding a pillow, her expression was almost together, like an aunt watching the finale of a TV series.
"There's a report here, you can take a look at it first. Song Ying turned on the phone and sent it to Luo Qiu.
Luo Qiu watched.
Song Ying said: "Although our family doesn't have any industry in China, we still have some connections. The information in this is what my grandfather asked a friend to check some time ago. According to his confession, the bullet that gave your father the fatal blow was actually a bullet from within the police. It's just that later, someone quietly gave him money to change the bullet used by the gangsters in the report, and also secretly changed the bullet for the evidence......"
Looking at the expressionless Luo Qiu, Song Ying took a deep breath and continued: "This time I came, it was my grandfather's intention, just to find out about this matter. My grandfather said, people from my Song family can't die like this. β
"I see. Luo Qiu returned the phone to Song Ying's hand, "Now, think about how to deal with this prank of yours more properly, okay?" β
"Good ......"
It's so fierce......
