Boss, do you have a card?

It is not appropriate to describe it in sequence, it happened at the same time.

The moment it landed, the black flames ignited a half-person-high circular arc on the ice and snow as if dividing the territory.

The enemy and the enemy are clearly distinguished, and the sense of oppression is full.

The space-spanning blade was held by a hand with pitch-black nails, and the distance between the blade and Shelley's neck was almost zero.

Ming was not unscathed, the blade cut through her palm, and the black red blood flowed from the crevices of the skin to the blade, and then burned into a fire, eroding the blue blade inch by inch.

An unprecedented silence filled the air.

Oda Sakunosuke's breath was almost stagnant, his heart rate soared, cold sweat condensed on his clothes, and his whole body was cold.

Suffocation, fear, excitement.

Messy emotions mixed together like an overturned paint pot, and foreign objects rolled and tormented in his chest, until finally, he finally woke up in the reality that the nightmare had not come true.

Oda Sakunosuke stopped the tendency of running forward, and then heaved a sigh of relief,

The picture of the two in the same frame came into view.

——He may not forget this scene for a long time.

It's like a visual collision of black and white.

Black is slightly higher than white, and white looks at black.

No words can describe Shelley's expression at this time, as if the words accumulated for hundreds of years are at a critical moment, but it is difficult to express a single word.

So in the end, she just raised her usual nonchalant smile and said, "You're here, sister."

Ming's eyes slid across Shelley's face, and she didn't stay for too long. She just moved over in a normal way, as if it was just the only way for her eyes to pass.

"No next time," she said.

"I know." Shelley rolled her eyes, and her tone was much more relaxed.

The atmosphere between the two is both alienated and not so alienated, just like this inexplicable conversation heard by outsiders, no matter when and where, they can immediately understand each other's meaning, like a natural tacit understanding like breathing.

Ming didn't say anything else, she looked at Fudi Yingchi, loosened her five fingers, and let the other party take back her weapon.

In the next second, the surrounding fire that was originally relatively stable rose, and the ghost princess exuded a domineering aura of "get out of the way and don't get in the way".

Shelley sensibly gave way to the space, but within a few steps, his complexion turned uneasy, and his voice also changed from sunny to cloudy: "Are you injured?"

Injuried?

Thinking of his sudden loss of physical strength at that time, Oda Sakunosuke immediately looked at Mei's left hand following Shelley's line of sight.

Before that, his attention had been focused on Shelley, so he didn't notice until now——

On Ming’s left palm, with the wrist as the dividing line, the intact skin is slowly repairing downwards, but the unrepaired part is terribly frightening, as if corroded by a high concentration of acidic medicine, bloody and bloody, and even the joints are exposed outer.

Oda Sakunosuke was terrified, the damage to the sleeve ended at the position of the upper arm above the elbow, indicating that the scope of the previous injury was definitely far greater than what they saw at this moment.

Who has the ability to make Ming hurt like this! ?

However, Ming has never been the type to explain well to others, and she doesn't seem to care about the "slight injury" on her hand. At this moment after they thought about it, she had already rushed out, and kicked Fudi Yingchi with a high leg. Followed by a set of relentless combos and kicks.

Fukuchi Sakurachi's weapon ability has a range of more than ten meters, and now they are three to forty meters away from them. In just a few seconds, they almost drove people directly into the fog zone.

This is the real person who doesn't talk too much, and treats friends and enemies equally.

to chat with?

nonexistent.

Oda Sakunosuke was full of worries: "..."

After holding back, he still couldn't hold back, and turned his head to say something to Shelley, but Shelley's expression was scarier than his, and he didn't hide the disgust and anger in his eyes at all.

Of course, the target is definitely not Ming.

"Fyodor." Shelley pronounced the name coldly.

System: "[Shelley]'s favorability with the test player Fyodor is -2, and the current favorability is 0."

White House September: "."

Although it was the expected result, Emmmm...how can I say it, fortunately there is no negative favorability value?

Shelley has true love for her elder sister. Although she is indeed influenced by her mother's last words, her love for her family has been deeply rooted since she was a child. Therefore, after losing her parents consecutively, her elder sister became her only sustenance and attachment.

After all, my father is hopeless, and if my sister works hard, there is still a chance to bring her back.

It doesn't matter if Fyodor calculates, it can be regarded as a game for his sister, but if he calculates that his sister is really hurt, then it is absolutely not allowed.

According to people's design, this matter is not so easy to pass.

The White House gave Fyodor a wax in September.

System: "Attention testers, [Shelley] synchronization rate is increasing—95%—99%—card synchronization is about to start."

White House September: ... What she said, look at it, it's all out of sync!

In September, the White House chose to simultaneously turn off the cards that were automatically opened.

Sister Shelley, I'm sorry, synchronization is definitely not possible. When I meet Fyodor in a while, I will find a way to relieve you!

Combating terrorists in the world is everyone's responsibility (testers)!

Ming and Fudi Yingchi were beaten in the dark, and unlike Shelley who was vaguely suppressed, the space-time sword seemed to have no effect on Ming.

No, it's not that it doesn't work, but Fukuchi Sakurachi will be stopped by Ming every time he makes a move. Even if he doesn't stop him, he can only cause a small amount of damage to Ming at a time, and it is impossible to kill him with one blow.

On the contrary, Fukuji Sakurachi must guard against every attack of Ming, even if the body has been strengthened, it is still a body of flesh and blood, this comparison is not one or two points.

Fukuchi Sakurachi hasn't lost yet, but the situation has reversed.

While paying attention to the situation of the battle, Oda Sakunosuke spoke to Shelley in a deliberate manner: "Before... did you intentionally have no defense?"

As soon as Shelley raised her hand, the rising ice screen blocked the aftermath of the sword energy cutting towards the dormitory building. The anger on her face had subsided, and she could even respond with a smile: "Oh, have you been seen?"

Oda Sakunosuke didn't speak.

Shelley paused: "Are you angry?"

Oda Sakunosuke said, "A little angry."

Shelley tilted her head to look at him: "Are you scared?"

Oda Sakunosuke said: "I was really scared."

He just realized that the look that Shelley looked at him was not a farewell before she died, but a sign that she would be fine, maybe it was comfort, but at that time Oda Sakunosuke was not comforted at all, full of All eyes are the knife that is about to fall.

Shelley clasped his hands together and blinked: "Then I'll apologize to you, or...you can do whatever you want me to do, as long as you can calm down."

Seeing Shelley like this, Oda Sakunosuke sighed deeply. He was not as smart as Dazai and Ranpo, but after all he had been a detective assistant for several years, he couldn't ignore so many clues in front of him.

Shelley could stop it at that time, but she pretended she couldn't. There was only one reason for doing so—she wanted to be saved by Ming, or in other words, she wanted to know whether her sister would be able to stop her at such a critical moment of life and death. save her.

That's why Ming said "no next time", because she completely saw through Shelley's unspoken thoughts.

"Did you already know about the contract between me and Ming?" Oda Sakunosuke asked.

Shelley leaned over and tapped his neck: "Did you forget? I also have a contract with you."

Oda Sakunosuke suddenly realized that there was another contract on the target of the contract, and the master naturally knew it very well, which further proved that Shelley did it on purpose.

He said helplessly: "Don't do this in the future."

Really scary.

The time he had contracted with Ming did not add up to 24 hours, and he was not used to the ability to communicate with each other. To be honest, when he asked for help, he was not sure whether Ming would really come.

Moreover, Oda Sakunosuke cannot confidently say that Mei was summoned by him.

The reason why Ming came here in time, the wound that was difficult to heal, the fact that she saved Shelley even though she was against Shelley, and... the thoughts of the two sisters.

All of these are not free for outsiders to intervene.

but.

Oda Sakunosuke looked at Shelley, who was assuring him with a big smile.

"I know, I won't scare you anymore~"

"It's to stop betting with your own life."

"Yeah~"

——He intuitively felt that they were gradually developing towards a better trend.

Bang! !

Fukuchi Sakurachi's body flew in the air in front of them, and then slammed heavily into the ice cones not far away.

The black figure followed closely, and the two fought together again.

Fukuchi Sakurachi lives up to the title of "Hero of the Far East". His record and strength are indisputable, whether he has advantages or disadvantages, his aura remains high, and Ming is also very satisfied with him. They all go all out and fight with their lives.

Shelley watched the offensive of both sides quietly for a while, probably knowing that her sister would not lose, so she turned her attention to the red dragon farther above.

Time seems to have passed a long time, but in fact, only 5 minutes after the appearance of the red dragon, the red mist has already invaded the entire east area of ​​Yokohama.

"What a waste." Shelley said so inexplicably, and then turned to Oda Sakunosuke, "Sakunosuke, can you do me a favor?"

Of course Oda Sakunosuke would not refuse: "What do I need to do?"

Shelley approached him with a smile, and reached out to wipe the blood on Oda Sakunosuke's left jaw, which was scratched accidentally when dodging on the ice.

"Borrow a little bit of your blood—by the way, you shouldn't mind accepting another contract from me~"

what?

Oda Sakunosuke was stunned.

But before he could ask his doubts, the familiar contract formation had already lit up under his and Shelley's feet.

Light up, disappear, contract, the whole process did not take more than two seconds.

what happened?

Oda Sakunosuke's bewildered expression made Yukino smile even deeper, and she looked over with sparkling eyes, her peach blossom eyes sparkling and charming.

"You will be my contractor from now on, please give me more advice~"

Oda Sakunosuke: "..."

Oda Sakunosuke hadn't turned his head around yet, and stared blankly at Shelley.

contract?Is that what he understood?

……

Wait, he remembered that it wasn't like this when Mei exchanged the contract with Dazai.

The requirement is that the current contractor, the new contractor, and the contractee are all present... It is obvious that there are only the two of them, why did Shelley change so casually?

And... also changed to himself who had already made a contract with Ming?

Is that okay?

Shelley saw Oda Sakunosuke's doubts, and said easily: "Don't worry, the source of my magic power is in the "Book of Seals". The contractor is just a cover to deceive the will of the world. But—isn’t that what happens when girls are angry, not only want to break up with their ex, but also want to bury their ex in the ground~”

Oda Sakunosuke was silent for three seconds, he didn't know whether he should be surprised that Shelley blew himself up about the source of magic power in an understatement, or whether he was entangled in the statement of his predecessor and incumbent.

After hesitating for a moment, he said tactfully, "This kind of comparison is not appropriate."

Let's not mention the predecessor who is about to be buried in the ground... According to this statement, wouldn't he become the incumbent?

It felt so offensive.

Shelley looked at him, pretending not to understand.

Oda Sakunosuke had no choice but to skip this, and silently accepted the fact that he had another contract—speaking of which, did he have too many contracts—and changed the subject: "Well... I was thinking, since there are Miss Ming, then I will go to the fog zone to find other members of the detective agency, I am a little worried about Dazai."

Osamu Dazai was clearly targeted by the enemy, and after losing the protection of the contract of the underworld, he became the most insecure of them all.

"Dazai?" Shelley raised his eyebrows, "I know where he is."

Oda Sakunosuke looked at her hopefully: "Really?"

Shelley folded her arms around her chest and leaned her upper body slightly back: "You care so much about that guy, so if Dazai and I fall into the water together, who will you save?"

Oda Sakunosuke choked for a moment, he really wanted to say that I don't think anything will happen to you, but after thinking about it, he gave an accurate answer: "Save you."

Shelley was much happier, but still had a straight face: "Oh? Tell me the reason."

Oda Sakunosuke: "Dazai is probably willing to fall into the water, and he has a lot of experience. As long as he doesn't want to die, he will definitely not die."

Shelley showed a subtle expression of not knowing whether to continue to be happy, and sighed faintly: "You are really... Forget it, let's pretend that you pass the test."

Then Oda Sakunosuke saw Shelley yelling in Mei's direction: "Sister~ that, you must take it, let me use it—"

Ming and Fudi Yingchi hit her from left to right, and from right to left, ignoring her.

Shelley continued to shout without giving up: "If you don't give me~"

Oda Sakunosuke thought to himself: Are you threatening?

Shelley: "I've been arguing with you—"

Oda Sakunosuke: "..."

Does this threat work?

It turns out.

it works.

Mei used the burst of black flames to temporarily isolate Fukuchi Sakurachi's attack. She turned her head and gave them a cold look, then raised her hand and threw out a thin object.

Shelley caught it, and Oda Sakunosuke finally saw clearly that it was a card, a gray card.

"Could it be..." Oda Sakunosuke was shocked by the speculation in his heart.

"That's right, it's that blank card." Shelley held it between his fingers, his tone slightly cold, "Even I was slapped by Fyodor."

Oda Sakunosuke knew that there were twists and turns, he was curious why the card was in Ming's hand, but now is not the time to get to the bottom of it.

"What are you going to do with it?" he asked.

Shelley raised his jaw in the direction of the red dragon suggestively: "Aren't you looking for Dazai?"

Oda Sakunosuke opened his eyes wide: "Dazai was taken away by the dragon?"

Shelley laughed softly: "That's pretty much the same thing, not to mention, you can't worry about letting that hang in the sky all the time."

Oda Sakunosuke understood that Shelley wanted to help solve the dragon, and he said sincerely, "Thank you, it was a great help."

Shelley reciprocated: "I am not a free worker, you have to repay me afterwards."

Oda Sakunosuke nodded seriously: "I can promise you everything except 'book'."

Shelley didn't get angry because of this premise, if not, then she wouldn't be Oda Sakunosuke, so she nodded with satisfaction: "Remember what you said."

Oda Sakunosuke retreated a little under Shelley's signal. He watched Shelley casually drop the card from the air, and then—a black and red magic circle full of ominous aura unfolded in front of her.

This scene is somewhat familiar to the magic circle.

After digging deep into his memory, Oda Sakunosuke remembered.

It's Fu.

Fu had used similar magic before, but the magic circle she summoned was not of this color, and the aura was not as dangerous.

Next.

Sure enough, an exquisite "Book of Seals" emerged from the magic circle, hanging in front of Shelley, and the falling card happened to land on the cover, and then merged into it.

A dark red halo illuminated the corner of the night, and the halo became higher and brighter.

The "Book of Seals" hung high in the sky, and everyone witnessed its appearance.

The sound of unlocking was heard clearly in everyone's ears.

They saw the books open and the pages turn.

Then in the next second, all the exposed power of the red mist, the red dragon, or someone who failed to recover it was swallowed up by the scarlet tornado.
