Great Swordsman Ke Xue

Are brain-eating worms so scary?

Koji Shimizu didn't understand it very well, but he was not nervous or panicked. This was not just because he had not experienced it in practice, but because his strength gave him such confidence.

And he calmly observed the situation in the venue, unlike a person in the game, and indeed discovered some things that were not easy to notice.

For example, two more people fell to the ground without any warning, convulsing and bleeding from their mouths and noses. Those two people were not members of the trade fair, but people on the edge of the venue, so he was the first to discover it.

Others were a few beats slower than Shimizu Koji, but this did not prevent them from becoming more panicked after discovering this situation.

"I-let's go, Koji."

Hattori Jinghua was so nervous that she stuttered a bit when she spoke. She couldn't be blamed for this. She had even figured out the situation.

Because Shizuka Hattori still has a very important piece of information that he hasn't made clear, that is, this kind of brain-eating bug can spread and is difficult to prevent.

The parasitized person may not be aware of his own abnormality until he dies.

"Yeah, but we should go and bring those things." Koji Shimizu nodded sensibly in approval, but said something irrational.

Following Koji Shimizu's gaze, Shizuka Hattori saw the matsutake mushrooms in the display cabinet on the stage, which was still covered by a curtain.

Want to take advantage of the troubled waters? !

This idea was rejected by Hattori Shizuka in just a second, because although the scene had begun to become chaotic, there were still many people surrounding the showcase over there, maintaining order.

"Let's get out!!!"

Suddenly, someone yelled, and a figure suddenly took the lead and rushed towards the door that was already guarded by several security personnel.

The security personnel are naturally not ordinary security personnel. Since the name of the Kendo Association is here, there are naturally a majority of Kendo practitioners. In fact, in today's world, spiritual power does not exist, and other schools are struggling to survive. There are only Kendo and the like. The taijutsu school has a good heritage, but aristocratic practitioners like Onmyoji have long lost their former glory and power.

Otherwise, it would not be the wealthy plutocrats who are in charge of Japan now.

But before several black-clothed security personnel could take action, the figure that hurried out suddenly stopped seven or eight steps away from the gate.

Then, like a replay of a movie, he twitched, his mouth and nose bleeded, and he fell heavily to the ground, lifeless.

Weird, indescribably weird and terrifying, the atmosphere of terror filled everyone's heart, and there was a sudden silence in the venue.

At this moment, a burst of inappropriate laughter suddenly came from the edge of the venue.

"Jie Jie Jie, have you seen it? This is the end. I don't want something like this to happen again, unless some of you are like him and want to become a cold corpse."

This almost had the words 'the mastermind behind the scenes' written on his face. An old man with white hair and an old face slowly walked into the venue. His eyes first looked at the two spiritual foods on the trading table. Then he scanned the faces of the people in the audience one by one.

"You, who are you?!"

"Saiki. Brother?"

Some people know him, some don't, but even those who know him now seem to have some who don't.

Qingmizu Koji watched all this silently, with some calculations in his mind. It was not difficult for him to see that there was something abnormal about this man's face. The real Saiki brother was probably in danger.

"No! He, he is a puppet controlled by brain-eating insects!"

Within a few seconds, a discerning person cleared up Koji Shimizu's doubts.

Puppet, yes, according to Shizuka Hattori, the main function of brain-eating insects seems to be this.

In other words, the real mastermind behind the scenes is still hidden among them?

There is no need to explain this kind of thing. Everyone present is not a fool. Naturally, they all thought of this quickly, and their faces became very ugly.

The few old men who originally accompanied Ryunosuke Yagyu seemed to be the backbone of everyone. They looked at each other, exchanged opinions silently, and then sent out a strong old man with a sword at his waist.

"Who are you and what's your purpose? Don't you know that if you use such vicious means as brain-eating insects, people all over the world will attack you?!"

"Jie Jie Jie, I'm so scared~, but as long as all of you here are dead, won't I be discovered?"

The faces of everyone present turned livid. No one expected that what was originally a party for practitioners would suddenly become so sinister.

But the old swordsman who could kill evil with one sword--

At this moment, even the dullest person could vaguely realize that Yagyu Ryunosuke was also sent away from the mountain.

And the bait is that spiritual food plant!

Thinking of this, some people's expressions couldn't be worse, because the other party can even use things like spiritual food as bait. Thinking about the other party's purpose makes people shudder.

Shimizu Koji and Hattori Shizuka were particularly inconspicuous in the venue at the moment. They were standing on the edge of the crowd, looking like a young couple. It was not that Shimizu Koji was mature, but Hattori Shizuka had lost his usual Hattori appearance. The lady's dignified demeanor makes her look as young as a college student in her twenties.

Hatsube Shizuka was somewhat at a loss, and her heart was also dead at the moment. Her strength was only at the level of a swordsman, and many people present were much stronger than her, but no one dared to speak now, because the opponent's means could be called terrifying.

He could take someone's life without being seen, and no one knew how the opponent did it.

Where the brain-eating worm came from was also an even more terrible secret.

"Ms. Ikebo, did you eat anything at the venue just now? Drinking counts."

After observing for a while, Shimizu Koji suddenly asked in a low voice. Hattori Shizuka froze, then looked at Shimizu Koji with some doubt, and shook his head slowly.

Shimizu Koji smiled slightly, explaining: "It's just a suspicion. After all, that kind of worm can't be put into the human body out of thin air, right? This is the most likely possibility."

"But what is a bit puzzling is that if such a big worm is in the food, won't anyone find it?"

"Worm eggs."

Hatsube Shizuka's voice was very low, but unexpectedly smart.

Shimizu Koji nodded and began to scan the people in the venue. If nothing unexpected happened, that person must be among them, and there might be more than one. This can be seen from the way he lured Ryunosuke Yagyu away from the mountain.

What the other party wants is probably not just the remaining two spiritual foods~.

But what does it matter? Just take it if you want.

Shimizu Koji is still very welcome to this behind-the-scenes mastermind who suddenly came out to take the blame for him. This can not only save him a lot of effort, but also completely relieve him of guilt~.
