Akutagawa Ryunosuke's ability is called "Rashomon", which changes the clothes on his body into various forms to attack the enemy and defend.

As the guerrilla captain directly under the leader, Akutagawa Ryunosuke has enough force and enough loyalty.Every time I set out a mission, I will have the determination to complete it, even at the cost of my own life, and the determination to complete the mission.

If he has any shortcomings, it is probably impulsive to act alone.One person walks on the front line, one person goes to find the enemy.

This small shortcoming is nothing in the eyes of Mori Ogai. He believes that Akutagawa Ryunosuke has thought about it even if he acts without authorization. After all, every unauthorized action can exactly get the desired result.This is also a kind of ability.

It's just that the leader of Akutagawa Ryunosuke will believe him, but the people who are Akutagawa Ryunosuke's subordinates will worry about being left behind by their superiors.

For example, Higuchi Ichiyo, just received the order to attack, the boss rushed to the front alone, and soon disappeared.

Ichiyo Higuchi, who thought that Akutagawa Ryunosuke was very slender after wearing an unknown number of filters, immediately became worried and drove the car to chase after him.

When she caught up with her, she saw the scene of Akutagawa Ryunosuke being smashed to the ground by orange flames before getting out of the car.

"Akutagawa-senpai!!!" Ichiyo Higuchi stumbled out of the car in a hurry, went to help him up, and was thrown away by Akutagawa Ryunosuke with a hoarse voice.

"Let go!" Refused to accept Higuchi Ichiyo's support, Akutagawa Ryunosuke stood up unsteadily.

The ground was smashed into a deep hole, even if a beast like Bai Ze was injured, it could be healed.Akutagawa Ryunosuke is just an ordinary human being, even if he has supernatural powers, it is inevitable that a few sternums will be broken under this kind of attack.

He coughed twice and coughed up a mouthful of blood.Akutagawa Ryunosuke raised his hand and shook it away, staring fiercely ahead like a wolf.

Bai Lan was slowly descending from mid-air, smiling happily like a child in a game.Compared to Ryunosuke Akutagawa's embarrassment, he was as clean as a person who had fought.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke's ability is not weak, it can be as sharp as a knife, can bite like a beast, and can swallow space to block the opponent's attack.

But the range of space that can be devoured is just the range that can just protect one's body, and this ability can't last for a long time, so it is easy to be exploited.

What's more, Bai Lan is a person who has destroyed several parallel worlds after all. No matter how innocent and harmless his appearance is, no matter how innocent and beautiful his smile is, even if he is easy-going and close like an ordinary young boy sometimes, his heart is also evil and peaceful. cruel.

The evil of a real child is that he will tear off the wings of a butterfly because of curiosity, and will smash the shell of a snail with a stone out of curiosity, the kind of evil that is naive and does not know its own cruelty.

And Bai Lan knows that these actions are evil, but she still cuts off the butterfly's wings out of curiosity.

Because he wanted to find the fun of the game and destroyed the parallel world, countless people died in his game.No matter how vicious Akutagawa Ryunosuke looks, he has a goal to sacrifice for and something he wants to protect.

The strength of the two is not at the same level, nor is their evil at the same level.Akutagawa Ryunosuke could clearly sense the difference in strength, but the more he knew, the less he planned to back down.

The task he was given was to avenge the person in front of him and make the other party pay enough for the invasion of the port mafia.He didn't intend to keep the enemy alive, but now that the enemy is strong enough, he can't let the enemy continue to live.

A powerful enemy sooner or later brings greater danger to the organization.And now he wants to put an end to this danger, even if he needs to save his life in the end!

With a hard look, Akutagawa Ryunosuke leaned forward slightly and stood firm, his black coat turned into a sharp cloth blade and struck forward!But Bai Lan resisted it with high-pressure flames.

"Everyone..."

"No one is allowed to shoot!"

Higuchi Ichiyo's order was interrupted, Akutagawa Ryunosuke didn't hold back the pain in his chest, coughed heavily, and said again in a cold voice: "Without my permission, no one is allowed to take action! Everyone back away!"

"But, senpai!" Higuchi Ichiyo wanted to say something, but was frozen by Akutagawa Ryunosuke's cold gaze.

"Stand back, this is an order."

"Really?" Bai Lan's joking voice came from the front, "Now you are already in a state of residual blood, hahahaha, do you want a person to fight with something like will?"

"The face of the Port Mafia will never be offended, and you will have to pay for what you did today."

Bai Lan still maintained a relaxed and casual attitude.

Apart from him, there are only people from Akutagawa Ryunosuke's side here now, and the others who were here have already heard the news and fled away, fearing that they would be affected, and fled far away.

The group of people originally ordered by Bai Lan also fled. In their view, no matter how powerful Bai Lan is, it is impossible to survive if he gets involved with the port mafia.It was the right choice for them to escape. If they stayed and were divided into Bai Lan's side by the port mafia, they would definitely be killed.They didn't want to bury Bai Lan with him.

Bai Lan also didn't pay any attention to their escape. In his eyes, the behavior of those people was not even a betrayal, but just a temporary tool he caught and used.It should be replaced when it is tired.

After being knocked into the air by absolute strength again, Ryunosuke Akutagawa stood up from the collapsed bricks and tiles with a burst of strength.

"Akutagawa-senpai!" Higuchi Ichiyo couldn't help coming over to help him.

"Don't touch me." Akutagawa Ryunosuke's voice was so hoarse that it seemed that it took a lot of effort to breathe.

"Akutagawa, that's enough." Zhongyuan Zhong also rushed over.

After seeing Mori Ogai, he rushed over, seeing the wound on Ryunosuke Akutagawa's body, he couldn't help but frowned deeply.

He felt that Akutagawa Ryunosuke was good at everything, but the fighting style that was not afraid of death was too tossing himself.

"Higuchi, take him back."

"Mr. Chuya, I can still fight." Ryunosuke Akutagawa insisted.

Zhong Yuanzhong also replied directly: "Leave it to me next, this is an order."

As soon as the word "order" came out, Akutagawa Ryunosuke was speechless.No matter how unwilling and unconvinced, he could only obey, but he still did not accept the word "go back".

"I can stay."

Zhong also glanced at him, but did not continue to force him, "Then you can stay, but you are not allowed to intervene at will."

"Yeah~ Long time no see." Bai Lan greeted Zhong Ye with a smile.

"that……"

He wanted to say the name, but his memory was really bad when he didn't focus on memorizing it, so he didn't think of Chuya's name after thinking about it for a while.

"Central Plains Zhongye." Zhongye announced his name and took two steps forward.

"Although I came to ask you what the reason for the invasion is, but for now, let me recover some interest for my subordinates."

As he spoke, he manipulated his own gravity to rush towards Bai Lan like a fired bullet.

Bai Lan blocked with both hands, and the two moved back a long distance before stopping.

"It seems that you are a bit powerful." With a playful tone, Bai Lan raised his head and smiled at the middle, and in the next second, a huge flame gushed out from the Mare ring worn on his middle finger.Zhong Ye's expression changed slightly and he avoided it.

The surrounding buildings suffered again, and the houses that were simply sheltered from the wind and rain became ruins one after another.

Gravity collided with the ultra-high pressure flames, and after a few back and forth, no one defeated the other.

Bai Lan doesn't like to show his full strength at the beginning, because he thinks it won't be fun.

Zhong also didn't use his full strength, because he thought that he hadn't reached that level, and if he really released his full strength, he would lose control. At that time, both friends and enemies would be attacked by him until he collapsed from exhaustion.He usually doesn't allow himself to that extent until it's necessary.

"Why did you invade the port mafia's intelligence network?" During the fight, Chuya asked sharply, "What is your purpose?"

Bai Lan didn't feel threatened at all, and replied with a smile: "I just wanted to find some information, and the result was not bad. It turns out that the armed detective agency has done so many things, hahaha, it's terrible. After all, he defected It’s really interesting that you can still get along well with him.”

"You are looking for Dazai's information?" Zhong also felt that it was not that simple.

"It's not that, I just want to understand the world more quickly and comprehensively in the simplest way."

So took aim at their intelligence pool?

Zhong also obviously couldn't accept the answer, "What do you mean?"

He said disapprovingly: "As Shun Hoshino's friend, aren't you afraid that your actions will bring him danger?"

"I just want to be best friends with Xiao Shun." Bai Lan smiled, not thinking she was wrong at all.

"It's okay, even if you die, you can meet again in hell anyway. Now~~~ I like Xiao Shun the most, he is more interesting than all of you."

"You look like this, how do you like it?"

He said something in disbelief.

Bai Lan didn't explain, just asked with a smile: "Then~ are you going to send someone to attack Xiao Shun? Even if he doesn't know what I'm doing?"

There was no answer in either.He himself would not choose to implicate the innocent, but if Hoshino Shun is really Prynne's weakness, he cannot guarantee what order the leader will give at that time.

But now it seems that Bailan doesn't even care about Shun Hoshino's life, so naturally she can't treat it as a weakness.

Moreover, it is not worthwhile to divide the originally harmless colorless king to the enemy's side.

Inadvertently and Zhong Ye continued to fight, Bai Lan made a fierce move to force Zhong Ye back a little, and after opening a certain distance, he flew away in the air.

He is obviously a human being, without wings or the ability to fly, but Bai Lan can indeed fly.

"Let's play together next time~"

There is no way to make a conclusion after catching up.Naka also didn't chase, and returned to Ryunosuke Akutagawa.

"gone back."

"Why not chase?" Akutagawa Ryunosuke was not satisfied with the result.He is a straight person, even though Chuya's status is above him, he has no right to question, and he still asks dissatisfied.

Zhong Ye explained in a good-tempered manner: "We know too little about him, so go back and report to the leader first."

He knew which move Akutagawa Ryunosuke was going to take, so he turned around and walked back without stopping, saying, "Come on, don't make the leader wait too long."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke pursed his lips and followed.

Bai Lan didn't go to other places, but came to the small villa. It happened that Dazai also came to look for Hoshino. The two happened to meet and found out that Hoshino had moved away.

Bai Lan didn't expect that he just spent some time doing artificial intelligence, and he would lose people if he didn't see him for a few days.His expression looked really silly for a moment.

Dazai had expected it, he thought it was probably because he discovered the [Book] that Hoshino was in a hurry to check out and leave.

"It seems that we have all been abandoned." Bai Lan said.

The person he was looking for was not there, and Dazai was not interested in staying here to argue with Bai Lan, so he turned around and left after confirming the situation.

He only responded, "Maybe he has seen through his true colors, so he doesn't want to play with him anymore."

It's easy to find Hoshino's location, but it's not easy to meet people.

Dazai called, but was ignored.

The same is true for Bai Lan. There is no response to calls or text messages.Finally he came to Tokyo.

Hoshino didn't ignore people on purpose, he was simply obsessed with studying without distraction.

24 hours a day, almost all in the reference room, lying directly on the floor when sleeping, and leaving the mobile phone somewhere has long been forgotten.

Two days later, it was Komaeda who thought that sleeping on the floor all the time would make him uncomfortable, so when he fell asleep, he carried the drowsy person back to the room and put him on the bed.

When the phone was found, it had automatically shut down because it was out of battery.Hoshino connected the charging cable, and immediately saw a screen full of missed call reminders, interspersed with emails after turning it on.

Dazai's, Bai Lan's, and Mr. Long's.

Mr. Long left a letter asking if the matter had been resolved, but because he didn't get a reply, he asked again if he was in trouble, and then there were several missed calls.

Bai Lan asked if her mood had recovered, then asked why she left without saying goodbye, and finally asked when the agreed hot pot would be eaten together.

Dazai only called and didn't send an email.

Hoshino didn't know what his purpose was, so he recalled the last time they met before, and remembered that Dazai had mentioned that he wanted to see Miss Yuko.

Hoshino understood, and after sending back a message, he began to call Mr. Long back.

[If you really need it, you will meet Ms. Yuko if you are destined.I have no right to lead. 】

After reading the message from Hoshino, Dazai called again and found that he was blocked.

"Yes, it's been resolved. Bai Ze made the antidote... No, I haven't encountered any new troubles. It's just that I won't go back to the monster apartment for the time being."

Because explaining the Dresden slate would require a lot of context, Hoshino didn't mention it, but simply answered Mr. Long's question, then ended the conversation normally, and hung up the phone.

Then it was time to reply to Bai Lan's message.

Hoshino thought for a while, and replied [Aren't you angry? 】

Remembering the apology, I reposted [I'm sorry. 】

Feeling that I had no beginning or end in my two sentences, I simply edited the text to explain.

【Actually, what happened to my eyes before has still affected you.so sorry.Bai Ze's antidote has been prepared, so there will be no more problems.Also, I'm sorry I didn't tell you about the move. I'm no longer in Yokohama. I lived there just for tourism. 】

[Then~ Is there still a chance to eat hot pot together? ] Bai Lan quickly sent a message.

It's hard to answer this question, because Hoshino can't be sure when he will have time now, if he says he wants to go out and get together with friends, he doesn't think the King of Gold will have any objections.But he also thought that he should concentrate on solving the commission at hand first, so he naturally fell into a tangle.

In the end, I replied [There is a chance to make up the previous agreement, but I probably don’t have time in the short term.Feel sorry. 】

[Okay, let’s talk again when we have a chance. 】

Bai Lan didn't send anything else, Hoshino breathed a sigh of relief.Throw the phone aside again and enter the learning state.

Komaeda is in charge of making people eat three meals a day on time, and Hoshino will prepare fruit meal replacements at night after learning too late. After a few days, he is more familiar with the layout of the Pillar Tower than Hoshino.

However, he stayed with Hoshino most of the time, helping to find related books.Sometimes I have to go to other reference rooms to get it, but it seems that I am much busier than Hoshino.

Finally, Hoshino had a general understanding of the basic situation of the Dresden stone slab. He hadn't read the in-depth research materials, but at least he knew the source of the stone slab and how to unlock part of the seal of the stone slab during the initial development and research.

The impact of the stone slabs on people at first was not as great as it is now. At least no matter how they are treated as holy relics, no matter how they are treasured or enshrined, the events caused before are only manifested on short-lived life forms such as moths. It's just as faint as a firefly.

It was later that part of the seal was lifted, and the power was guided again, so that it began to show power on the little white mouse.Everything starts from this moment.

Speaking of which, the person who lifted part of the seal on the stone slab is the King of Gold.The King of Gold was also a member of the team that studied the slate, but he was not the leader, but the assistant.

To understand so much for now, it should be better to go to see the slate carefully first, correspond to the pictures and texts on the materials, and then read the subsequent materials.

Picking up the materials he had read, Hoshino stopped, and after thinking for a while, he simply picked up all the relevant research manuscripts.

It may be more convenient to stay by the slate to understand later.While reading, compare the actual objects, so let’s take them all over, so as not to run around.

Komaeda helped carry the computer and a few books over.

After arriving at the top floor, after putting things on the table by the wall, Hoshino came to the top of the stone slab.

There is a layer of glass in the middle, which is actually difficult to observe, no matter how clean and transparent the glass is.

Hoshino walked around and felt that the glass above the stone slab should be able to be moved, but he just scanned the room, not quite sure where the control switch was.

He hadn't asked the King of Gold before, but Hoshino chose a more convenient method than asking someone now.

"Brother, lucky enough to let me use it, find the control switch for this."

Hoshino tapped the glass under his feet lightly.Komaeda understood.

With a modest smile, Komaeda raised his hand to touch the pillars supporting the ceiling.

"Can you be so lucky to find it? Let me try."

The word "ba" just fell, and the piece touched by Komaeda's fingers was easily pressed down.The glass on the top of the stone slab dropped one step in unison.

Hoshino hadn't completely exited the range yet. When the glass fell, he had to stand still. He stopped and stabilized for a while. Before he had any other reaction, the glass dropped by one and started to retreat, which immediately made him lean forward with an unstable center of gravity. .

Komaeda hastily walked over to pull it, and the two of them took several steps back, and finally fell to the ground.

Although I didn't fall hard, the floor is hard, so the feeling of falling is not very pleasant.

Hoshino gritted his teeth and endured the pain, feeling that Komaeda, who was pressed by him behind his back, would hurt even more. After all, unlike him, his brother had the property of being afraid of pain, and the weight of the two of them was pressed together.

Standing up quickly with his hands up, Hoshino turned around and asked with concern.

"How is it? Didn't fall down?"

"Ahahaha, it's okay." Komaeda didn't seem to be in pain from the fall, but because he subconsciously supported the ground, he almost twisted his hand.

"It doesn't matter to me, as long as Xiao Shun didn't fall."

"It's fine." Pulling him up, Hoshino breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't do this next time, it's better to fall alone than both."

The whole picture of the stone slab has been revealed. Hoshino stepped on it, and he could feel how hard and solid the stone slab was just by stepping on it.

The surface of the stone slab is not smooth, apart from the maze-like mysterious lines, other places are also uneven.When I touch it, some places feel a little prickly when I touch it.But if you want to break off a small piece, you can't break it, it's hard.

It seems really impossible to smash it.What's more, there are six tatami-sized thick boulders, and it is difficult to find suitable tools to smash them.

How about trying to use a helicopter to lift it to a high altitude, find an open area, and then drop it?

Such a simple method... seems a bit idiotic.

Abandoning this thought, Hoshino brought the materials and began to compare them carefully.

At this moment, three jailers holding knives penetrated the wall and entered the room.Probably because of the ghost lamp's confession, after they came, they saw Hoshino and Komaeda, they didn't have the confidence to think that they would not be seen.

The three jailers stood together and said, "We are here to take away the dead who have reached the end of their lives."

Hoshino, who was squatting and looking down at the slate, was almost startled by the sudden strange voice.When he looked up and saw three obviously not human beings, he recalled the matter of the colorless king's soul.

"This kind of thing won't hurt Xiao Shun, right?" Komaeda asked.

The jailer quickly shook his head, "No, no, what we want to take away is only the dead, and we won't hurt adults."

This "adult"... feels like I have registered in hell.Hoshino was a little embarrassed, and asked, "Then... how should I cooperate?"

"Your Excellency, you only need to relax. Leave the rest to us." The jailer replied.

How to relax?

Hoshino looked at Komaeda, conveying the meaning of asking for help.

Am I going to lie down and relax like I'm asleep?

Komaeda thought for a while, then sat down, patted his knees, and smiled: "Maybe we should just lie down. Xiao Shun can also close his eyes."

Without hesitation, Hoshino climbed up to the floor, then lay down with his head on Komaeda's leg.

One of the three jailers is a soul-snatching ghost, the other is a spirit-snatching ghost, and the third is a soul-binding ghost.Every time they come to the present world to take away the dead, the three ghosts take the soul of the dead away from the body one by one.

First of all, the soul-snatching ghost pulled out the soul first, and the soul of the colorless king was caught by the soul-snatching ghost as if unconscious.

Then it was the spirit snatcher who took away his energy, but just as the spirit snatcher was about to make a move, Hoshino suddenly opened his eyes.

"that……"

"Is there any question, my lord?" The Soul Slayer Ghost almost thought that he hadn't done a good job in what he did just now, and he was afraid that he would hurt the living soul, so he asked anxiously.

"No, no." Hoshino quickly explained, "I just suddenly remembered, after you go back later, can you ask Mr. Ghost Lantern if you have time to come? I have something I want to ask for help."

The Reaper breathed a sigh of relief, "Of course. No problem."

Hoshino thanked him relievedly, and closed his eyes again.

The essence-trapping ghost took away the spirit of the colorless king, and finally, the soul-binding ghost bound the colorless king's consciousness.After the three jailers expressed their gratitude to Hoshino for his cooperation, they returned to hell together. After handing over their souls, they did not forget to find a ghost lamp to convey Hoshino's words.
