[Master K] The bad one next door

After returning to the bar, several capable users were escorted to the second floor for interrogation.When the cursing disappeared at the top of the stairs, everyone could finally sit down and rest for a while.

Bando fell on the sofa, took a sip of wine, and looked depressed: "I'm exhausted, why didn't I feel that there were so many outsiders before. Yazawa also ran away with the man in the black hood... So this is all What's the matter?"

"It's hard work, let's take a good rest." Ten beams patted him on the shoulder with a smile, turned his head to look in the direction of the bar, and lowered his voice, "You say that, Hatta is the worst one."

Bando fell silent.

In fact, Hatta Misaki hasn't said a word since entering the house.Uncharacteristically, he was in a sluggish state, and he didn't have the usual active energy at all. He just sat in front of the bar and stared at his fists in a daze, obviously still in that dazed state.

——With this guy's simple mind, he probably hasn't figured out the situation yet.

Of course, in that case, no one can figure it out.

As soon as Brother Zun returned to the bar, he went to the room on the second floor, and Brother Kusanagi was also participating in the interrogation on the second floor. After thinking about it, only Shishu was the only one who could listen to someone.Bando hesitated for a second, decided not to bother about the mess between Yata and Yazawa, and began to pour out bitterness by grabbing the mild-tempered young man with brown hair.

Hearing the illogical thoughts coming from not far away, Hatta finally came back to his senses.Recalling the previous scene, he couldn't help scratching his head irritably, and smacked his lips in a low voice.

"……whispering sound."

——Sure enough, I still care about it.

Although Hatta is stupid, his intuition in some aspects is still more sensitive than ordinary people.He had a vague feeling that Maki had something to hide from him, but he didn't know how to find the evidence.

——So why on earth did Maya chase after that black hooded man?

Every time he thought of this, the orange-haired boy felt short of breath.He puffed up his cheeks, took the iced Coke in front of him, and was about to take a few sips into his mouth, when he caught a glimpse of something on the bar with a flash of white light from the corner of his eye.

He froze for a moment, forgetting to drink Coke.

——It’s Maya’s terminal.

She appears to have left the terminal at the bar as she was leaving.Such an important thing can be forgotten, I really don't know whether to call her careless or impatient.Hatta stretched his hand towards the terminal, halfway through the stretch, his fingers suddenly froze, and he felt guilty for no reason.

He quickly looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this position, so he quickly grabbed the terminal into his arms.In a direction that others could not see, he lowered his head, held his breath, and carefully looked at the terminal of his childhood sweetheart for the first time.

A small Chihuahua terminal chain is hung on one end of the terminal with an orange string. The shell is white, without any fancy stickers for decoration, which looks clean and simple.It seemed that there was still residual warmth from the girl's fingers on the cold terminal case, causing his fingertips to burn inexplicably.

Hatta pursed his lips, turned the terminal to the front with a blushing face.To his surprise, her lock screen was a photo of the entrance of the Barbara Bar.The lighting and framing of the photo are just right, giving the whole scene a hazy halo, just like those professional landscape photos.Swipe the lock screen, and you will see the interface for entering the password.

Staring at the empty four-character password grid for a long time, Hatta's mood suddenly became tense.He swallowed his saliva, looked around nervously again, and only after making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he lowered his head and secretly entered Maya's birthday "0312".When the system prompted an input error, he was stunned, hesitated for a long time, finally gritted his teeth fiercely, stretched out his trembling fingers, and with an inexplicable sense of shame and guilt, stiffly pressed down his birthdays one by one.

——0.

--confirm.

He held his breath and stared at the screen.When "wrong password" popped up on the screen, he trembled and let out that breath heavily.

——Sure enough not.

He pinched the terminal depressedly, with complicated emotions.

What on earth was he thinking? It was inexplicable, just like an idiot.

Hatta tapped his head in frustration, put down the terminal, and turned to chat with Kamamoto to relieve boredom.At this moment, the roar of a motorcycle engine suddenly came from outside the bar door.

The sound of the engine stopped abruptly at the door, followed by hurried footsteps.Before the people in the bar could react, the door of the bar was slammed open.

"Hello...huh?"

Hatta couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise when he saw the face of the person coming at the door.

The silver-haired boy in a high school uniform held the door panting, his clear blue eyes quickly scanned the bar, as if looking for something.If I'm not mistaken - Hatta can be sure that he is absolutely right - there is a gun pinned to his waist.

- But, that's not the point.

The point is, the familiarity of this person is beyond his imagination.

After the silver-haired boy couldn't find what he wanted, he subconsciously frowned.He murmured "Aren't you there?", then raised his head, and put on a bright smile to everyone as if he had just woken up from a dream: "Ah, I'm sorry, sorry, I accidentally went wrong, I'm leaving now."

After all, I have to turn around and leave.

Hatta reacted abruptly, stood up while supporting the table, and shouted: "Hey, wait, you—"

However, before he finished shouting, the figure of the silver-haired boy quickly disappeared at the door of the bar.The sound of the motorcycle's engine sounded quickly and then faded away. It seemed that the owner of the motorcycle had planned to run away from the very beginning, and was not prepared to give him a chance to shout.

All the people present looked at him in surprise.Akagi showed a confused expression: "Hata-san? What's wrong?"

Hatta gritted his teeth and said nothing.

——That guy... isn't that the bastard who stayed with Maya in the supermarket before? !

He grabbed Maya's terminal on the bar: "Damn... I'll come back as soon as I go!"

<<<<<

"Thank you for your patronage ~ welcome to come again next time."

The sweet voice of the female shop assistant came from behind the cash register, and then the "bang bang bang bang" sound from the computer at the checkout.Mami stood in front of the French window of the convenience store, holding a magazine in front of her eyes, pretending to read it seriously, and glanced in the direction of the cashier from the corner of her eye.Seeing Kota Fujiwara walking out of the automatic door with a bag of things, she quickly put down the magazine and followed quietly.

Obviously the bag in his hand looked heavy, but Fujiwara walked through the crowd with ease, and Maki had to exert all his energy to barely get thrown off.She tried her best to follow behind him a few meters away, carefully hiding her sense of existence.

Just keeping herself undetected was enough to scare her.The heart seems to be "thumping" out of the throat, and the brain is blank. All the body knows is to stare at the figure of the black hooded man in front of him, and to quickly hide his figure when the other party turns his head. For a sniper student who has never learned tracking, it is really a big problem.However, in this case, she could only bite the bullet and rush forward.

Because she left the terminal at the Barbara Bar.

...It's a sad fact to say, and Maki no longer wants to recall the collapsed mood when she found out about this after following impulsively.While silently praying that Shinichi Hirobe could find her, she followed Fujiwara around the corner of the commercial street.

There is a road after the corner, and it is the green light at this time, and the zebra crossing is full of dense crowds coming and going.Fujiwara seemed to have noticed something, and walked towards the road at a faster pace, and his figure quickly blended into the army of passers-by dexterously.When Zhenya realized that something was wrong and was eager to follow, the red light on the sidewalk turned on, so she could only stand at the traffic light and watch Fujiwara disappear on the other side of the road with the flow of people.

She was suddenly stunned.

...Is this considered lost?

Maya couldn't help biting her lower lip, her face full of remorse, she raised her head and stared at the traffic lights, her toes restlessly tapped on the ground.Time passed by every minute and every second, as if after a century, the green light finally turned on again.As soon as the green light came on, she couldn't wait to rush across the road, clenched her fists, and looked around, looking for Kota Fujiwara.

--people.people.people.

There are dense crowds everywhere in the field of vision, and the noise breaks into the eardrums, hitting the numb brain one after another.She stood alone among the crowd, her vision was occupied by the wall of people, her nails dug deeply into her palm, she was so anxious that she wanted to cry.

When Mami was completely flustered, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar black hooded figure at the entrance of the alley not far from the crowd.

--there!

She was overjoyed, and quickly squeezed out of the crowd, and ran in that direction.When she reached the entrance of the alley, she gradually stopped, panting and looking into the depths of the alley.

What caught the eye was a dense darkness.

Mami froze for a moment.

It seems that there is a plane dividing the street and the alley into two different worlds.The world here is crowded with people, the voices are noisy, and the bright sunlight fills the streets, revealing a scene full of vitality; the world over there has no light, the blackness is bottomless, and a desolate alley leads crookedly. To the unknown destination, there are broken walls, dilapidated, and the air looks abnormally cold.

Mami's restless heart gradually cooled down.After taking a deep breath, she began to calmly look at the empty and dark alley.

Is this... is Fujiwara's base?

She has lived in Zhenmu for decades, but she has never seen such a place.Of course, it was also possible that Fujiwara had lured her here on purpose—in any case, she had only one way to go at this time.

After hesitating for a moment, Maya reached out to touch his pocket, and took out a badge of the Butei School from his pocket.She stared at it for a while, then let go of her hand, watching it slide down from her palm, roll several times after landing, and stop at the corner of the alley.After completing a series of tasks, she mustered up the courage to look up, look straight into the depths of the alley, and take a step forward.

The smell of rot and damp hits his face with the steps he takes.

The slippery feel underfoot is slightly uncomfortable.Maki's eyes scanned the surroundings vigilantly, and moved forward slowly.

step.two steps.three steps.

As we got deeper into the alley, the light got darker and darker.The air was so cold that it made goosebumps all over her body. After an unknown amount of time, her toes suddenly bumped into something, and with a slight echoing sound of "哐", she immediately stood stiffly.

Miya blinked.There seemed to be a faint silhouette of a small house in the darkness, like a black panther with a hunched back.

After a while, her vision became clearer, and she was sure that it was indeed an abandoned small house.The surface of the wall is already very old, with mottled paint everywhere, at first glance it looks like those single-person public toilets in the suburbs.It was completely blocked on the road in the alley, and there was no gap to drill through—that is to say, this place already meant a dead end.

Of course, Kota Fujiwara might have jumped over from the roof, but for some reason, Maki felt that he was in a corner of the house, hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to attack her.This almost firm intuition was very weird, she bit her lower lip, and looked at the rusty door calmly.

The door was ajar.There seemed to be something secretly surging behind the door that was melted into a cloud of black mist.

Maki felt that her hands and feet were trembling unconsciously.She took a deep breath silently, closed her eyes, trying to calm down her frantically beating heart.

—Boom, boom, boom.

In the silence, the beating of the heart hit her eardrums one after another.She clenched her fists tightly, opened her eyes, and took a step forward, putting her body into a defensive posture that she had practiced countless times.

Although she has never passed the fighting class taught by Teacher Lanbao...but in this case, she can only give it a go.

Mami's eyes gradually became firmer.She maintained her defensive posture, gently moved her hand forward, and pushed the door open.

With a "squeak", the door opened slowly under force.

First the gate.Then there's the shabby rug.Then came the moldy planks.

She stared closely at the dark space revealed little by little behind the door, almost forgot to breathe with tension.

Just when the door was halfway open, a sudden change occurred.

——A black figure sprang out from the crack of the door.

A sharp silver light flashed in Hei Ying's hand, at an astonishing speed that ordinary people's naked eyes could not catch, mixed with strong wind, cut through the air, and slammed down towards her who hadn't reacted yet.
