The ferocious xenon lamp was suddenly ignited, and a huge circular spot of light was cast on the ivory white window screen. Both Lu Mingfei and Eli Yi narrowed their eyes in unison.
"Commissioner Lu Mingfei, I am responsible for assisting you and your team to the mission target codenamed True Red Soil. Please immediately go to the helipad of your current floor to assemble. You have ten minutes to prepare before departure." A man The voice was connected to Lu Mingfei's private channel. Apparently, the commissioner in charge of sending Lu Mingfei and his team to the Tama River was unable to think of a way to get out of the blocked Tokyo streets at this moment, so he called The academy has some large piece of military equipment here.
All joking aside, that helicopter looks bigger than a Super Stallion and has much more firepower than an Apache. It looks like it was the work of the Equipment Department. If it were put up for sale, it would definitely be an epoch-making military vehicle. .
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath, adjusted his collar, and looked at Eli Yi.
"I'm leaving, don't worry, no one in Japan can hurt me." He said while kissing the girl's smooth forehead.
The black helicopter rotated its blades and slowly moved to the left while descending.
Neither Lu Mingfei nor the commissioner on the helicopter realized that during the minute they were talking, a man-made missile and an assault rifle were pointing into the air behind the thick window screen in the next room.
That was Chu Zihang's room. The president and vice-president of the Lion Heart Club had developed rapidly in their bilateral relations in recent days, so it was not surprising that they lived together. They are all murderers who can join the Lion Heart Club. The roar of the heavy helicopter engine may not wake up Nono, who sleeps like a pig, but it is obviously not difficult to wake up Chu Zihang and Su Qi. .
This is a sensitive period, and the origin of the helicopter is unknown. The Kassel College logo cannot be seen on the dark fuselage. In addition, Chu Zihang and Susie are not on the list of characters in Operation True Red Soil. , the communication channel of the crew members would not conduct radio communication with them, and these two killers had no time to verify the identity of the visitor.
Driving a center-of-gravity armed helicopter to use aircraft cannons to suppress the presidential suite of the Peninsula Hotel in Tokyo. In just one minute, the huge cannon and airborne machine gun can pour out hundreds of kilograms of ammunition. In that case, except for the dust-free The earth and the bronze throne, Chu Zihang really couldn't think of any other spirit that could keep them alive.
Coincidentally, at this time, the Sheqi Eight Family and the Fierce Ghosts all looked like lunatics who could do such a thing.
They no longer care about going to war with the academy. The secret party's troops are coming from all directions. In another forty hours, the city of Tokyo will turn into a dragon's nest.
Anyway, they are fighting to the death, and the trump card of killing the opponent in advance does seem like something the Japanese can do, just like when they attacked Pearl Harbor many years ago.
It wasn't until the plane turned off the xenon lamp that Chu Zihang used the blurred light and shadow in the sky to see clearly the ancient emblem on the black fuselage, which was marked in dark brown that was very close to black.
That is a world tree.
Half dead and half alive, the black branches spread upward along one side of the fuselage, like black vines, or like ancient and mysterious tattoos.
Lu Mingfei stopped, his clothes were held by Eiry, so Lu Mingfei turned around to look.
"I'll send you off." Eriyi said. She spoke concisely and clearly, but her voice was always soft and waxy, not as cold and solemn as many people imagined.
In other words, she has always been such a gentle person in front of Lu Mingfei. She never wanted Lu Mingfei to see her violent side. Whenever she used her power, she felt that the evil ghost from ancient times was using her. The body patrols the human world, and whoever the evil spirits say to die will die.
Sometimes she also thought that if Lu Mingfei saw the evil ghost in her body, he would never like her again.
Eriyi still doesn't understand the truth that those who are accompanied by the devil will only be the devil in the end.
Lu Mingfei touched Eli Yi's hair. He nodded, beckoned the girl to stand up, asked her to turn around, and unbuttoned the back of her nightgown, which was quite delicate and troublesome to put on. So this piece of clothing, which was only suitable for wearing in the bedroom, was removed. The girl's beautiful body flashed away in the darkness. Lu Mingfei could only vaguely see the curve of Yingying's waist and the glow in that ray of broken light. Fluorescent shoulders.
Then he immediately put on a sweater to keep out the cold and Nono's black windbreaker that had been hanging on the hanger.
There was a glimmer in Eryi's eyes. She was a little surprised and she circled with her bare feet in front of Lu Mingfei. She pressed her fingers on Lu Mingfei's palm, as if she was doing a dance, and the hem of her windbreaker flew up. Kai is like a blooming flower. She is tall and slender, and her lonely ankles and tight and slender calves are the best scenery. The nightgown is scattered on the bed, like a colorful feather coat.
"It's cool." Eriki stopped and breathed slightly.
She has always envied Lu Mingfei and her brother for being able to wear black trench coats and go out to do big things that ordinary people would never be exposed to. The men's open trench coats revealed tailor-made suits, and the linings were messy and colorful, like in the world. The most outrageous Ukiyo-e.
That looks really cool, just like those contrasting male protagonists in anime who go out to slay demons and slay evil spirits with swords during the day, and then go home to cook loving dinners for their little wives at night.
But every time Eriyi goes shopping with Xia Mi, she never gets a chance to try on a windbreaker, and she never tells Xia Mi what she wants to wear.
That was probably due to some kind of emotion called shyness.
Lu Mingfei smiled, took Eli Yi's hand and motioned her to follow him, and Eli Yi obeyed without hesitation.
The rooms of Caesar and Chu Zihang were still quiet, presumably they were also recharging their energy for Operation Jiyuan.
Lu Mingfei was not worried about any accidents that would happen to his senior brother and Caesar. Ever since he was attacked at Haneda Airport, Angers had been staying on his private plane. The steel behemoth named Sleipnir silently shuttles among the clouds above the city of Tokyo. It doesn't make much sound, but it makes the Sheqi Hachi family and the fierce ghosts always raise their heads. It was difficult to breathe at any time, as if thugs who could kill them might fall from the sky at any time.
The principal first came to Tokyo at the invitation of Lu Mingfei. When he implemented the Kuimen plan to enter the Bronze City, he promised to satisfy Lu Mingfei's request.
This request is undoubtedly to protect Eri's safety during this year.
But now, Natsuya and Constantine are almost inseparable from Eri.
Jormungandr, the most powerful dragon king in human form, and Constantine, who once held the supreme authority in the world, even though he has fallen from the altar, can still summon the elements of fire and metal to crawl in front of him.
With them here, who in the world can hurt Eri Yi?
Odin?
That clown-like thing will be torn to pieces.
Angers can spare a few days or more to focus on Takamagahara and the Divine Burial Hall. He rides Sleipnir and wanders like a ghost in the sky of Tokyo. Any accident happens anywhere. Can arrive in an instant.
The King of Sky and Wind, Hilbert Jean Angers, has never shown his speed in front of anyone, but who would know that the so-called miraculous time zero is just the Wind King's leisurely stroll.
Someone was already waiting in the corridor. Nono wrapped herself in a camel cashmere coat and leaned against the wall with a croissant in her mouth. She saw Lu Mingfei holding Eli Yi's hand and walking out of the suite. , with a suspicious expression on his face.
Lu Mingfei smiled awkwardly and wanted to explain, but Ke Huiliyi was holding his arm tightly.
Nuonuo took out another croissant from his pocket and handed it to Lu Mingfei. Then he tore the one he was holding in his mouth from the middle and gave half of it to Eriyi.
The red-haired little witch looked at her with some scrutiny, but said nothing. Her pretty nose moved, and a smile appeared on her face.
"You want to bring Eri clothes?" she asked.
"No, we can just go by ourselves." Lu Mingfei said, "I didn't see Christina and Qilan."
"We've arrived at the tarmac, waiting for you." Nono shrugged, "Are you armed?"
Lu Mingfei rolled up his sleeves to show Nono the lust tied to his arm. Nono nodded and continued to deal with her croissants.
The wind and snow were raging on the tarmac, and the helicopter's rotors were covered in violent snow dust. Nono glanced at Lu Mingfei and climbed into the cabin first. Lu Mingfei touched Hui Liyi's head.
"Go back and get into Xia Mi's bed." He said, "I'll be back soon!" He said loudly, drowning out the roar of the engine.
Eri stood on tiptoes and kissed Lu Mingfei's cheek, the clouds in her eyes were collapsing.
"I never blamed you," she said suddenly.
Lu Mingfei was stunned. He stared blankly into Eli Yi's eyes. Eli Yi tilted her head, her smiling eyes shining brightly.
"Hurry! Lu Mingfei!" Qilan shouted on the plane.
"Coming, coming!" Lu Mingfei responded without looking back. He stretched out his hand as if to touch Eliyi's head, but in the end he didn't do so. Instead, the girl took the initiative and put her head to the man's. Under the palm, it rubbed like a kitten.
"I'm sorry." Lu Mingfei said, "I will never do it again."
"Yes." Eriki nodded seriously, "I believe you."
Lu Mingfei walked toward the helicopter with the snow on his shoulders. The hatch slowly closed behind him. The propellers that had never stopped rotating suddenly accelerated, and the black beast roared into the sky.
The giant bird flew towards the Tama River in the snow crystals all over the sky. Lu Mingfei turned his head and glanced at Eriyi below for the last time. She was still leaning against the thick glass door, all the fog and clouds in her magnificent red eyes. All scattered.
Chapter 339 Ryuji Saeki
The mountains in winter are so lonely that everything seems to have died, leaving only the rustling sound of ice shards falling from the sky and falling on the tops of old trees with ice edges.
The man wearing a black patterned haori walked silently through the torii gate and stone Jizo, walked along the long cobblestone road, and arrived in front of the main shrine of the shrine.
Snow piled on Yuan Zhisheng's head and shoulders. His clothes were thin and his figure was thin. He walked through the mighty mountain wind and wave-like ice and snow, holding a pair of knives tied with a string and a transparent bottle in each hand. Stirring spirits.
The ice and snow fell on him, and some of it melted quickly. The melted ice water soaked the uppers of his shoes, and his whole body was soaked, with white steam rising up.
If Caesar were here, with the super hearing brought by Kama Itachi, he could even hear the roaring sound of hot blood flowing in the veins of this thin man's body.
The tall, slender girl followed silently behind Yuan Zhisheng. Her long hair was tied into a high ponytail. There was a faint crimson at the corner of her eyes. Her plain white skin was almost the same as the sudden heavy snow. color.
Sakura was always one step behind Yuan Zhisheng. She followed every step, but she didn't carry a weapon in her hand. Instead, she held a folded black umbrella. Her coat was mostly wet from the snow, but Yuan Zhisheng could always smell the fermenting and warm fragrance.
When passing by the ancient wooden Buddha in front of the main hall, Yuan Zhisheng stopped under the eaves. The howling wind blew behind him, causing the man's hair to fly wildly. Ying couldn't see the young master's eyes, but saw him take out a cigarette from the cigarette case that slipped out of his sleeve, put it in his mouth, but didn't light it, just holding the cigarette in his mouth and looking up at the mottled Buddha face.
The priests in black stood side by side in front of the main gate of the temple. The wind and snow also made small hills on their shoulders. A priest trotted to Yuan Zhisheng's side with his head lowered and his eyebrows lowered. Lighting a cigarette for him, "Many of the wooden Buddha statues from the Kamakura period were devout Buddhists." The old man with downturned eyebrows said gently.
The wind swirled with snowflakes and ice crystals flying between the Buddha's brows and eyes. Yuan Zhisheng suddenly turned his head to look at the path that had been completely covered by the wind and snow, and his eyes seemed to be filled with deep clouds.
He took a deep breath and blew out a puff of smoke. The hand holding the knife reached out to the priest. The priest immediately understood, bowed and held Spider Kiri and Doji Kiri Anzuna in his hands, and backed away slowly while holding them.
"Let's go." Yuan Zhisheng patted Ying's shoulder and took the umbrella from the expressionless girl. He did not stop when passing by the incense burner in front of the ancient Buddha, but took three lit incense sticks from the priest serving on the side and inserted them in.
He didn't want to ask for anything, and the blessing was meaningless.
He came here today just to pay homage to an old friend.
The priest who held the sword led Yuan Zhisheng and Sakura through the main hall and into the backyard where no one usually visited. White gauze hung on the ceiling partition of the corridor. When the wind blew, the gauze would sway. , accompanied by the dense sound of wind chimes that sounded from nowhere.
The backyard was also piled with snow. The withered chrysanthemums that Lu Mingfei saw when he came here last time were completely invisible. Even Shijizo was buried under the snow. The candles and offerings in front of Shijizo were also buried. Naturally, the fruit was probably picked up and eaten by wild civet cats in the mountains.
At the end of the corridor was a Japanese-style room blocked by a plain screen. The priest opened the screen, and the dim room was empty except for the blood-stained long trench coat neatly folded on the tatami, and the long trench coat covered with white paper. Wrapped jar.
The light beam with tiny dust flying in it fell on the windbreaker little by little as the screen was opened. Yuan Zhisheng waved his hand, and the priest retreated.
He stepped aside a little to make way for Sakura. The girl who had been expressionless all the way seemed to suddenly become in a trance.
It was as if something heavy suddenly pressed on her shoulders, making her breathless.
The white paper on the jar was the talisman left by the god. A piece of paper that looked a bit random and even crooked was pasted on the side of the jar facing them, with the words "Saeki Ryuji" written on it.
The biting wind penetrated along Sakura's collar, and she shivered slowly.
She fell down little by little, until she finally supported her tired body by leaning against the door frame of the Japanese room. Sakura felt that it was really cold this winter.
Yuan Zhisheng handed over the bottle, and Sakura took a swig of strong drink against the whistling wind.
The pain of cutting her throat made her cough violently, so Yuan Zhisheng held her shoulders and gently stroked the girl's slender back with his other hand to help her breathe.
"The only one left in Crow's family is his father." Yuan Zhisheng helped Sakura into the Japanese room and sat cross-legged on the opposite side of the tatami. He took a sip of ice wine and blew his eyelids. "We are worried that he will not be able to accept the death of his son. It was a blow, so I never told him the news.”
Sakura nodded and sat down next to Yuan Zhisheng, quietly staring at the small jar containing the crow's ashes.
She, Crow, and Yasha are all the young master's retainers. Although they can be considered friends, Sakura has always had a cold temper and has not hung out with those two guys.
She knew that the crow liked her, but she didn't like the crow. There was no reason why. If she didn't love him, she just didn't love him.
A long time ago, she was a cheap girl who oiled the weapons in the family warehouse. She didn't know too many rules of the Sheqi Hachi family. Some people bullied her and piled other work on Sakura's head. Sakura would not resist. It was Yuan The child took her out of there and taught her how to be a real girl, and the person who did this was not a crow.
Some people are just so stubborn, and they will never change who they choose for the rest of their lives, even if someone promises them all the wealth and the highest status in the world.
Moreover, in Sakura's eyes, Crow has always been a careless guy. People like him have been in the underworld all year round and have a dirty heart. If they like a girl, they will not maintain their passion for that long. Soon, Mr. Saeki Ryuuji will find someone somewhere. He meets his rightful lady in a gang or at a certain event.
But that day they were attacked on the way to Tokyo Tower. The young master's younger brother, Ruri Kazama, whose real name was Minamoto Naomi, slashed the Hummer driven by Sakura from the middle with a crimson sword.
At that time, the only people in the same car were her, Yuan Zhisheng, Crow and Yasha. Yasha had always been a brave leader in the team. When he was angry, he looked like a liger hunting, but he fell down after just one punch. Fly out and lose consciousness. Then Sakura blocked the first knife for the young master. Yuan Zhisheng was severely injured at the beginning of the attack and temporarily lost his combat effectiveness.
Kazama Ruri was probably the most terrifying opponent Sakura had ever faced. He stood there, his silent majesty blowing in his face like the sea rain and the wind, and the red-gold mandala was spinning in his pupils.
But the reason why a retainer is a retainer is to die before his master. She raised a knife and faced Kazama Ruri, but she was almost pierced through the heart with just one blow.
It wasn't that Sakura could block the evil spirit's blade, but because the crow pushed him away at the critical moment.
Kazama Ruri's long and narrow blade was completely immersed in the gloomy-looking man's chest, and large pools of blood were squeezed out like a fountain. Sakura was stunned. She propped her short sword on the ground and reluctantly stood up. The whole body was trembling, and the spirit and Yin current were triggered with unprecedented intensity. Countless metal fragments were like silver butterflies all over the sky, flickering in the sky and spinning around Ruri Kazama, who was wearing a red kimono.
