[Comprehensive] Demon Fox Hiding Horse

Who is this person smiling softly at Kurama right now?It's the super black boss who has a dark belly and evil schemes to kill people!

Do you think it's a good thing to be treated with a gentle smile by him?

--never!

Cangma felt that he should be on the blacklist at all!The intuition belonging to the demon fox is warning him fiercely!

However, facing Colonel's "friendly" greeting full of ominous blackness (==), Kurama's response was to raise a gentle and elegant smile that does not lose to the other party, stretch out his hand, and gently shake it back——

"Hello, Commander Mustangu. It's nice to meet you too. Rescuing Lieutenant Colonel Hughes is just a small effort, and it really doesn't deserve your gratitude."

After a round of conversation, Yaohu and Dazuo looked at each other and smiled. For a while, the background was full of flowers and the sun was shining, but the other people in the living room looked messy in the wind——

Big belly black or something, one is enough to make people overwhelmed!What are the two coming this time...

And let no one live? !

Hughes and Lieutenant Lisa looked at each other, and they both saw deep helplessness and worry in each other's eyes.

***

Fortunately, the follow-up of the matter did not develop as Hughes and others worried.

Although the atmosphere between Kurama and Dazuo has always been a little weird, but on some matters, the two people's views and opinions are unexpectedly harmonious.

This made the rhythm of the conversation seem smooth and natural for a long time, and Hughes and Lisa gradually let go of their original worries, and felt that the situation was not as bad as they thought before.

But it turns out that they were too early to reassure.

After agreeing on a series of coping methods, and discussing and judging Hughes' assassination and the confusing events surrounding the Philosopher's Stone and the artificial man, the night outside the window has fallen, and the not far away In the kitchen, the seductive aroma of Gracia's cooking dinner began to faintly radiate.

The originally heavy atmosphere in the living room also gradually eased. Roy, Hughes, and Gossett, the three old friends who hadn't been together for a long time, rarely got all together, so the conversation couldn't help but bring out a bit of tension. Nostalgia means nostalgia.

Fortunately, they did not neglect Lisa and Kurama because of this, so the atmosphere of the conversation was very harmonious.

However, when the topic turned to why Gossett also appeared here, the uncle doctor's description of the whole incident that Hughes was sent to his small clinic by a Tibetan horse on the night of his murder gave a certain officer another chance to change the topic to Tibetan. Horse grounds.

"Although you said before that it was just a little effort, which is not worthy of my solemn thanks, but in fact, you have done much more for Hughes than you think."

It can even be said that if this young man did not accidentally pass by and give a helping hand, my friends would have been in danger this time.

Roy knew this very well in his heart, so no matter how many doubts he had before, he didn't ask immediately, especially... the other party seemed to have some unknown defense against him, which made Roy even more helpless. He opened his mouth hastily, but he could only follow the wishes of his friends and his adjutants later, and change the topic away.

It's just that the doubts in his heart have not been answered, which makes everything full of certain uncertainty.

Although Roy is sure that Zang Ma saved Hughes, he is a person worthy of his gratitude and trust, but if some things are not clear at the very beginning, then some of their next actions will inevitably have some dissatisfaction with him. would like to see the impact.

Da Zuo said that he really didn't want to cloud future plans and actions because of this, so it's better to figure out some things in advance.

such as--

Who is the mysterious boy named Kurama?

From what Hughes described, he seemed to appear in such an important place as Central Command out of thin air without being noticed by anyone.

But this... how did he do it?

And then he used the so-called "illusion technique" to delay Hughes' injury, whether it was to retreat the artificial man and make him mistakenly think that Hughes was really dead, and more importantly, the one he "changed" was the same as the real one. The human body is not at all different, no matter how you test it, it is Hughes's own "body" - what is going on with any of these abilities that are enough to make people pay attention and crazy?

Although the other party clearly stated that "alchemy is not the only way to achieve miracles in the world", but in this world where alchemy has been developed to the extreme and has penetrated into every corner of life, if a person who can The means used by those who repel a difficult enemy that even an alchemist cannot repel are not alchemy...

No matter what the truth is, in short, Roy actually has some disbelief in his heart.

But his attitude was not important to Kurama.

In fact, he doesn't have much expectations for this world, because there are too few things here that can be used as "treasures" that can be traded with Yuko.

Kurama can't completely remove the "Gate of Truth". Besides, the price to be paid to open that thing once is simply more uneconomical than trading with Yuko. Kurama doesn't plan to specialize in alchemy, so it's better to avoid such dangerous things. Good idea.

And since the goal cannot be set as the door of truth, then it is obvious that the only thing the fox can collect next is the Philosopher's Stone.

But when it comes to this thing, Tibetan Horse really doesn't really want to get involved with it, because just thinking about its refining source will make people feel a deep chill from the bottom of their hearts.

When Kurama was in the Demon Realm, he met monsters who liked to use the blood and life force of monsters or human beings to make sacrifices to refine certain treasures or utensils, but with the Philosopher's Stone, a city or even a whole country Compared with the way people treat it as refining materials, the methods of those monsters are simply too gentle!

Even if Zangma is no longer a pure human being, he cannot accept or even get used to this practice of not treating human life as human life.

However, he is not a messenger of justice, and it is not realistic to ask him to stand up to expose this and stop that.

So Zangma chose to cooperate with Hughes. In this way, he only needs to provide some help when necessary, which can greatly change the direction of the original work and keep the overall direction of the plot unchanged. The resulting impact has changed dramatically to prevent something from happening.

Yaohu felt that this method was very suitable for him, so he actually didn't care about Roy's temptation at all, or in other words, Roy's current attitude was in line with Kurama's taste and his understanding of the Colonel.

If the other party treats him as gently and kindly as before, then Zangma will really blow his hair - the type of smiling tiger, because Zangma himself is a good player, so he knows how difficult it is to deal with it.

In comparison, Roy's obvious black belly is easier to deal with.

Raising a gentle smile like his trademark, Yaohu slightly nodded to the black-haired chief in front of him: "Since the chief insists on saying that, then I will no longer be humble. I know that many of the skills I have shown are indeed amazing. In the eyes of a master alchemist like Colonel, it is still quite amazing. But what I said to Lieutenant Colonel Hughes at the time was completely free of any lies."

"—this is indeed not alchemy."

Looking directly at the Colonel's deep black eyes, Kurama raised the corners of his mouth and smiled innocently.

"I said that I am a traveler. Didn't the Colonel...haven't thought about it in this direction?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the pupils of the black-haired man on the opposite side constrict severely. Zangma knew that he probably... understood the deep meaning of his words.

The demon fox laughed more and more meaningfully.

***

The conversation at Lt. Col. Hughes' home seemed to end up going nowhere, but several people who were there knew otherwise.

Although taking into account a series of subsequent plans, the fact that Lieutenant Colonel Hughes is still alive has not been announced. Instead, it has become an important dark game hidden in the shadows, waiting to be announced at the most appropriate time. , giving some people a head-on blow, but the things Hughes has to do every day are more trivial and complicated than when he was still serving in the military——

He took over the intelligence work in Roy's hands in an all-round way, and he still went out and went home regularly every day, but with the cover of a hidden horse, he turned into a stranger who rented in the same apartment, only when he got home The "illusion" will fade away automatically, and it will automatically arm itself when you go out every day. It is really safe and reassuring. Uncle Gessett, who is also unable to show himself in front of people, is envious.

However, Uncle Gossett has returned to the arena this time. After a toss in his small clinic with a few trustworthy people, he re-established a staff dedicated to Roy's side, from medical equipment to doctor quality. It is not inferior to the private clinic of the military hospital at all, which greatly relieves the pressure of "work-related injuries" on Roy's side who are injured but unable to go to public channels for treatment. From the side, it can be regarded as returning to the team again.

And Zangma stayed with Roy as a special adviser.

After the initial conversation, the two seemed to have formed some kind of tacit understanding that other people could not understand. This made the aura between them get along a bit weird, but strangely harmonious. No one would think that they had only known each other for a month, because it felt that the two knew each other even better than Roy and Hughes, as if they had known each other for many years.

Both Yaohu and Dazuo were noncommittal about the evaluation of outsiders.

They are very clear about their own goals and plans, so it is natural to cooperate with each other very speculatively - because firstly, their goals do not conflict with each other, and secondly, their personalities and ways of doing things are really similar to a certain extent, so getting along like this It feels very fresh when you wake up, and both of them just don't like this freshness.

So Cangma soon gained a firm foothold beside Roy, and became the "well-known" Major Mustangu, besides Lieutenant Hawk Ai, another highly valued and capable adjutant.

And the experience of this adjutant is also full of legends. He only stayed in the army in the eastern city for just two or three years before he was promoted to captain. He is really a rare talent.

——Of course Zangma's "resume" was made by him and Roy, but the two of them are not afraid of people to investigate, because no matter who goes to the eastern city Zangma's "formerly employed" department to ask, They will all get a very detailed "Lieutenant Tibetan Horse's Three-Year Work Record".

Everyone there can tell all kinds of details about getting along with Kurama, as if they really worked with him for a while-thanks to the powerful hypnotic and real hallucination abilities of Kurama's demon plants.

In short, it took only one month for Zang Ma to come to the steel refining world, and he has become a serious military employee. He spends his time in Roy's office every day, but the orthodox adjutant Li Lieutenant Sha was also full of praise, and the little life was quite comfortable.

And Mokona is even happier!

Roy's office is full of his own people, so the little guy doesn't have to worry about being taken away and sold as some advanced synthetic beast after exposing his ability to speak.

On the contrary, Mokona's well-behaved and cute character made him very popular among this group of iron-blooded and tender soldiers. Even the mighty Lieutenant Hawkeye once brought him small biscuits that he baked. How pampered the guy is usually.

More than a month has passed since the two people were very satisfied. Finally, with the return of the protagonists Edward and Alphonse to Central City, the gears of the plot began to rotate rapidly again.

The only difference this time is that although Ed and Al learned of Hughes' death at the military headquarters, when they came to Hughes' house full of anger and grief, what greeted them was not the first step. The tears of Wen Li who visited Hughes' house, and the sadness of Gracia and Alicia, were filled with laughter and laughter.

The black-haired man who was told that they had "died in the line of duty" was sitting there with a hearty laugh, talking to Wen Li who was also smiling.

Gracia sat on the side and listened with a smile, while Alicia was held in Wen Li's arms, her face was as lovely and bright as ever.

Ed and Al were completely stunned there, not knowing how to react, and finally Hughes found them and strode up to welcome them into the house.

Then he explained the truth about his "undeath" to them, and told Ed and the three to keep it a secret. Although he didn't expect any performance from the three children, they still had a hidden horse, didn't they?

That miraculous "illusion" is almost to the point where you can get whatever effect you want, Hughes rubbed his chin and began to calculate. How much will the ability to hide one's own emotions be degraded... (==)

Knowing that Hughes was not dead, Ed and Al were obviously greatly relieved, but the fact that Hughes was assassinated and the conclusion he speculated stimulated the two brothers' desire to find the truth about the Philosopher's Stone.

So the gears of fate turned again and again. That night, Zangma, who followed Roy to find clues and came to the Third Research Institute of the Military Department, followed him into the underground space of the research institute under the calculation of a certain chief. , and here, I encountered the first artificial human I have encountered since entering the steel refining world——

"Fuck," Rust.

This is a beautiful woman with long black curly hair and a very proud figure, and her identity... seems to be a bit special - she accurately named Roy who followed Kurama and Roy to this direction The name of the competent subordinate, and then in the grievance and depression of the blond male officer tearful, it was confirmed that he was currently dating his girlfriend...

"Habock..." The Colonel, who felt that he was "humiliated" by his subordinates in front of Kurama, silently covered his face, "You are looking at those big breasts, right? (Soul Dan)!"

The blond soldier turned his head and burst into tears, "I like big breasts the most!"

Tibetan horse turned his head and suppressed a smile.

Seeing this, the corner of Colonel's mouth twitched even more.

"But you can see the situation clearly! The biting snake tattoo on her chest is the symbol of artificial human beings. I have told you many times about this!"

Unexpectedly, Habok's expression became even more aggrieved upon hearing this.

"We haven't made it that far yet. When we meet, she always wears clothes that show off her figure but don't reveal that part. How can I see that tattoo..."

"..."

——Da Zuo almost beat the hearts of his subordinates to death!

Picking up girls is such a failure!What a shame to see that deceptive handsome face!

How could he have such useless subordinates!

...Wait a minute, Commander, your focus seems to be wrong ==

"...cough! Anyway, you didn't say anything in front of her, did you?"

With a light cough, the Colonel tried to bring the topic back on track.

Second Lieutenant Haberk immediately shook his head, "No, they are talking about personal matters that have nothing to do with work."

"That's good."

Colonel nodded solemnly, and then asked the other party about Hughes. After hearing that it was really related to the artificial man, and the woman in front of him was not the murderer who killed Hughes, but after attacking him before, Colonel The anger completely broke out!

He shot the black-haired woman on the opposite side continuously, but the wounds left by the bullets piercing through her body miraculously healed quickly.

"Cyborg……"

As if he only recognized the other party's true identity at this time, Second Lieutenant Haberk muttered to himself.

However, the other party did not give him and Roy any time to react.

Turning her ten fingers into sharp claws, the opponent quickly attacked close to her body. After cutting off Roy's pistol and the water pipe above, making the famous Flame Alchemist useless, she killed Roy and Haberk. The second lieutenant had no choice but to rush out of the room and hide in the doorway, so that he could breathe.

And at this moment, the two looked at each other, and found out in horror——

"Where's the Tibetan horse?!"

Little did they know that the person "forgotten" by them was standing not far from the door of the room at this moment, looking at the other side with a calm face.

But in front of his eyes, the black-dressed black-haired android Rast opened his hands that turned into sharp claws, but was stopped in front of Zangma by two long spears emitting a faint brilliance of treasures.

Behind the spear, a beautiful black-haired young man with a bewitching tear mole at the corner of his eye was standing there with a calm and peaceful expression on his face...
