This look and tone are exactly the same as that bastard newcomer.
Qiu Gongyue's anger almost reached its peak, but then she suddenly calmed down and began to reflect.
He is obviously a person with an indifferent personality, but he can remain calm when faced with anything. This is also an essential quality for a mature killer.
But why can't I always control my emotions in front of this guy?
Xu Cheng was surprised to find that Qiu Gongyue's usually cold and sculpture-like face suddenly became richer in expression at this moment.
Sometimes she frowned, sometimes she was confused, sometimes she looked murderous, and every face showed a different surprise than usual.
Before Xu Cheng could admire it for a while, Qiu Gongyue's expression returned to cold and calm.
He asked: "Miss Qiugong, do you have anything else?"
Qiu Gongyue looked calm, as if the anger just now had completely dissipated: "I have something to do and need to go out for a while. I hope the landlord will not enter my room. If any accident happens, I will not be responsible."
The tone was full of threats.
Xu Cheng nodded: "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who likes to just say it and won't get in. As long as you don't allow it, I will never go in."
Qiu Gongyue pretended not to understand, turned around and went back to her room with a straight face.
After she left, Xu Cheng looked down at his hands. Whether it was the silky feel or the fragrance of the facial cleanser, it was very similar to that night at the Aomori ancestral home.
Is it her?
Next time we encounter Xinyue in our mission, we might be able to use the same method to verify it again - provided that she won't kill him.
Xu Cheng looked at the messy home and couldn't help but sigh: "Today's earthquake was very noisy."
…
After Qiu Gongyue returned to her room, she locked the door, kicked off the remaining slipper on her feet, sat cross-legged on the bed, closed her eyes and remained motionless.
Normally at this time, she would start practicing breathing techniques and slowly increase her strength.
But at this time, he did nothing. He was thinking quickly about the doubts that had just arisen in his mind - he was a person with an indifferent personality, so why couldn't he calm down when facing the landlord.
This question was not troublesome. Soon, Qiu Gongyue opened her eyes and she had found the answer.
The reason why the landlord wanted to be beaten was only superficial. The real reason was that when he showed that he wanted to be beaten, he couldn't beat him.
From childhood to adulthood, anyone who dared to commit suicide in front of Qiu Gongyue has been killed by her overtly and covertly.
But Xu Cheng is different.
First of all, he is the landlord. In order to conceal his identity, Qiu Gongyue cannot take action directly.
Although he deserves a beating, he is not punishable by death. Beating him will reveal his identity, and according to the Assassin Code, he must be killed.
Secondly, he is suspected to be related to the killer. Before the investigation is clear, Qiu Gongyue cannot do anything in private, lest he accidentally exposes himself.
In this helpless situation, Qiu Gongyue felt aggrieved every time Xu Cheng had a bad mouth, but she couldn't argue and couldn't beat him, so she became even more aggrieved.
The little theater in her head could only relieve her anger. This anger was held in her heart and could not be vented, making her emotionally agitated more and more easily.
In fact, Qiu Gongyue has never been a generous person, but is very petty.
She regretted a little now. She shouldn't have said that her profession was a chef, but a karate teacher or something like that, so that she could beat him upright.
Well, wait a minute, who says chefs can't have martial arts skills?
Qiu Gongyue crossed her arms and began to think.
…
On the other side, Xu Cheng arranged all the furniture that was messed up by the earthquake, cleaned the broken dishes in the toilet, and then returned to his room.
This sudden earthquake had a magnitude of at least 6-7 and was quite destructive.
Xu Cheng turned on the computer to read the news, but found that the Internet was quiet and no one was discussing it.
This is obviously something wrong. In the past, when such a large earthquake occurred, in addition to TV Tokyo, other TV stations and news websites would definitely report it as soon as possible.
After searching around, I finally found a piece of news released by the Meteorological Bureau - a large, ultra-small earthquake occurred along the river bank east of Kofukuji Temple in Sumida District.
The title is a bit contradictory. Since there was a huge earthquake, how could it be so small in scope?
Clicking in, the content is that the Meteorological Bureau detected a magnitude 6.5 earthquake in Sumida District half an hour ago, but the area was limited to the river bank east of Kofukuji Temple, with a diameter of no more than one kilometer.
This strange phenomenon is unprecedented, and the Meteorological Bureau currently does not know what is going on and is preparing to send people to the site to investigate.
The earthquake only occurred in Sumida Ward and the area was no more than one kilometer?
Xu Cheng felt incredible. The river bank east of Hongfuku Temple was his home. Is this the only place in Japan where an earthquake occurred?
He has not forgotten that this land has been targeted by the government, and two developers involved in organized crime have been arranged to reclaim it, which is almost inevitable.
A strange earthquake phenomenon that has never been seen before occurs on a piece of land that the government must seize but dare not publicize. Is there a relationship between the two?
Xu Cheng wanted to take a look again, but after refreshing, he found that the news released by the Meteorological Bureau had disappeared, and some posts discussing this topic had also been blocked.
At the same time, the scandal broke out about the male star who was involved in eight boats last time. Four of the eight boats were his biological sisters who had been separated for many years.
Celebrity scandals turned into family ethics dramas, and the entire Japanese Internet public opinion was detonated in an instant. Countless people flocked to the news, completely drowning out the news of the Sumida District earthquake.
Xu Cheng immediately saw that this diversionary approach was the government's best at manipulating public opinion, using eye-catching big news to cover up the really important news.
What they did made Xu Cheng even more suspicious that there was something wrong with the land, and it was very important, so he kept an eye on it.
What exactly is there in this land makes the Japanese government pay so much attention to it that it changes from its usual procrastinating style and immediately controls public opinion whenever there is a situation.
Is there oil underground?
This is impossible. If it is really related to oil, then it is not the Yakuza who come to visit, but the US military.
Xu Cheng was thinking and suddenly remembered some absurd legends that had been circulated on the Chinese Internet.
According to legend, Japan purchases high-quality resources, such as coal, steel, and rare earths, from all over the world, and then buries them in Tokyo Bay for the use of future generations of Japan.
According to legend, Japan also secretly built atomic bombs and Gundams and buried them in Tokyo Bay. Once a war broke out, they would take them out to rule the world.
Sumida District is not far from Tokyo Bay. Could it be that under this ground, the Japanese government had buried... Ultraman?
Xu Cheng began to think divergently, maybe it was not Ultraman, but Unit 1, and there was a third New Tokyo hidden underground.
No matter what is hidden underground, it must be something that the Japanese government desperately wants but dare not make public, which is why they adopt the method of "sneaking into the village and not shooting anyone" to reclaim the land.
After guessing for a while and having no clue, Xu Cheng simply gave up and started searching for things related to ability users on the Internet.
He found a piece of news about the low-key establishment of the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Headquarters a few years ago, and the scope of this department's work was claimed to be to deal with extreme climate change.
He also found the official website of the Super Power Association, which turned out to be an association for magic and cultural exchange.
No news about the rebels could be found, and they seemed to have left no trace online.
In addition, there are many rumors about superpowers and accidentally shot videos on the Internet, but most of them have been 404ed, and a small number of them are also regarded as urban legends by netizens.
It seems that whether it is the government, the neutral superpower association, or the resistance, all three parties have a tacit understanding to maintain the mystery of superpowers, and no one stands up and makes loud noises.
