Schneider and Manstein looked at each other and rang the small bronze bell on the door.
"Come in, gentlemen." Ange's voice came from the door.
Schneider opened the door, and there were bookshelves on all four walls. The collection of books led directly to the top of the small building. The patio composed of bookshelves and ancient books was filled with golden sunlight.
Angers sat drinking tea under the skylight on the top floor, while squirrels scurried around on the shelves.
"I already know what you are going to say," Ange smiled, "Don't be so gloomy and come upstairs first."
Schneider and Manstein sat down opposite Angers, and for a moment they didn't know what to say.
Too many things have happened in the past few hours, including the love affair between Chu Zihang and the preparatory student, the dive of Caesar's team, the malfunction of the deep submersible, the appearance of Gao Tianyuan, the ancient dragon city, and the Caesar's team entering the unknown and sudden seabed of Nibelung. The volcano erupted, and Caesar's team surfaced safely...
The Executive Department has never encountered such a complicated situation since its establishment.
The most outrageous thing among them was the ascent of a group of people. They clearly abandoned the Ditryeste, but relied on the deep-sea walking equipment and two pairs of armors donated by Gu Bei to complete their individual ascent - from a depth of 9,000 meters.
After hearing this report, Schneider even thought that what Gu Bei gave them was not the armor but the Trident of the Sea King.
But that's not the most important thing.
The important thing is the death of the Dragon King... This is the first time they have taken over such an incident, and it was caught off guard.
To be honest, when Caesar and Chu Zihang unanimously reported the hatching of the Dragon King, Schneider had already begun to have doubts about the team.
Because they came back alive.
After meeting the Dragon King and still coming back alive, Schneider had to consider the possibility of rebellion between his outstanding student and the young master of the Gattuso family.
After all, it’s not like there are lessons learned from past mistakes.
There was once an A-level hybrid who rebelled during a mission to eliminate the second-generation species and turned to the target. As a result, the entire team on the mission was wiped out. Later, it was Angers who took action to eliminate the second-generation species together with the traitors.
If Caesar and Chu Zihang also... then Angers would have to take action.
As for Fingal, Schneider is not worried, because the only thing that can be used to control Fingal is EVA.
But even the Dragon King cannot resurrect EVA. He can only turn EVA into something like Deadpool Corpse Guard. This is something Fingel cannot accept.
So if there's anyone on the action team who can be trusted, it's Fingel.
Then he learned the information about the killing of the Dragon King from Fingel.
Fingel also rebelled?
No reason.
So the Dragon King was really killed?
Cassell's long-cherished wish for so many years has just come true?
Schneider felt somewhat unreal.
The report on the death of the Dragon King by Caesar's team was too vague, which made Schneider instinctively feel that there was something fishy in it. However, before he could ask about the detailed process, several people in Caesar's team simply fainted.
After Yuan Zhisheng sent the medical staff on the Monyach to check, they determined that several people were indeed seriously injured, especially Chu Zihang, whose two eardrums were punctured by himself.
I don’t know why, maybe it’s because the Dragon King has the means of sonic attack.
Caesar and Fingel were not much better either. They were dehydrated, their chests were highly compressed, and their sternums collapsed significantly.
Thanks to the excellent physical fitness of these few people, if it were anyone else, they would probably be buried under the sea.
Unfortunately, no specific information is available for the time being.
Schneider suppressed his thoughts for the time being and brought Manstein to Angers for a report.
"It's not too bad," Angers broke the silence. "At least they all came back alive and completed the task beyond specifications."
"But I don't think they can assassinate the Dragon King," Schneider said cautiously, "To be honest, even if I'm in a wheelchair, I'm still 50-50 against Caesar, although Chu Zihang and Fingel are both
A little stronger than Caesar, but if they can kill the Dragon King..."
impossible.
This was not only his idea but also Manstein's.
But Schneider had more in mind than Manstein.
If it were just these three people, it would be absolutely impossible. Together, they wouldn't be enough for the Dragon King to fight with one hand, even if Yuan Zhisheng was added.
But it’s not necessarily impossible.
Schneider has two suspects, one is Gu Bei, who has left Japan, and the other is Xia Ya, a student in Kassel.
Schneider thought of Gu Bei's existence as soon as he learned that the action team had killed the Dragon King. In his opinion, if there was anyone who could kill the Dragon King, besides Angers, the only one was Gu Bei.
So he immediately used Norma to investigate Gu Bei's situation, and then he found Gu Bei who was shopping with Lu Mingfei at the Wanda Plaza in Gu Bei's hometown.
But why are these two shopping in the women's clothing section?
She must be choosing a gift for her girlfriend - Schneider thought.
The first option is eliminated, then the second option.
A character who should not have been involved in this mission, but suddenly got involved in the mission - Xia Mi.
If Schneider knew most of the people on the Monyach, then he knew nothing about Xia Mi.
For this reason, he also specially adjusted Xia Mi's life history and admission files - unexpectedly clean, no problem could be seen.
So, was it really just an accident that Xia Mi was brought to the mission site by Chu Zihang?
Would Chu Zihang do such unnecessary things?
Schneider has only been in contact with his student for half a year, but he still understands Chu Zihang's nature.
The conclusion is: it’s not something Chu Zihang can do.
The girl named "Natsuya" has a problem.
This is what he thought and this is what he reported.
"Xia Mi?" Angers thought carefully, "preparatory student?"
"Yes, she entered school in the same year as Chu Zihang, but Chu Zihang was in the preparatory year, and she was in the preparatory year." Schneider told the information he collected, "I established a relationship with Chu Zihang when I was a preparatory student, and later through Chu Zihang Zihang joined Nadutong Company, along with her brother who has intellectual problems."
"Is she from Gu Bei?" Angre asked.
"should be."
"Then don't worry about it for now and investigate secretly."
Ange also felt that there was something wrong with this little girl. Although he guessed that there was a high probability that the Dragon King was killed by Gu Bei, he did not rule out the possibility of Xia Mi taking action. In short, he still could not draw any conclusions before confirming the situation.
"Don't let Gu Bei know that we are investigating Xia Mi... and don't let Chu Zihang know either."
"I understand, about the Dragon King..."
"I have my own arrangements here."
Schneider understood and left with Manstein.
After the two left, Ange dialed Gu Bei's phone: "I'm sorry, the number you dialed is currently not in the service area..."
In order not to be detected by Kaguya, Gu Bei automatically disconnected all equipment that could be monitored.
"Tsk." Angers stretched, "You can't let me, an old man, go there myself, can you?"
With that said, he dialed Fingel's number again.
——
Genji Heavy Industries, Xingshen Temple.
Minamoto Chisheng and Tachibana Masamune were sitting across from each other drinking, while Yasha stood in the corner of the terrace acting as a bodyguard.
Dark clouds were hanging low over the city of Tokyo, and the roofs of the skyscrapers seemed to be about to penetrate the clouds. The commercial district below was still full of light, and the traffic on the elevated road was moving through it, which looked a bit magical.
Yuan Zhisheng looked at the cumulonimbus clouds above his head: "The situation in Japan today is like this city. To use an ancient Chinese poem to describe it, "black clouds are overwhelming the city and are about to destroy it." There are people sitting outside your office. I'm all waiting to report to you, but it's a good thing you still have the heart to ask me out for a drink. "
"In order to be a general, you must first heal your mind. If Mount Tai collapses in front of you, your appearance will not change. If a deer rises to your left, your eyes will not blink. This is also what the Chinese say."
Tachibana Masamune said calmly.
"Don't rush around because there are many things to do. If you feel that you are overwhelmed, you should suspend all work and let your mind calm down, just like you do now. This is the old man's truth, and you will understand it in the future."
"I don't understand. I will be a sunscreen seller in the future. I don't need to know the principles of marching and fighting." Yuan Zhisheng shrugged.
"Sorry, sorry, I forgot again." Masamune Tachibana smiled.
"The family is doing its best to hunt down Yuan Jingnu. This is almost equivalent to a full-scale war with the monsters. Seventy percent of the gangs in major cities have turned to us. The situation is in our favor. I don't care whether I listen to the reports of the people below. It doesn’t matter, as long as we push forward steadily, we will be able to capture Minamoto Girl one day.”
Tachibana Masamune stated the current situation to Minamoto Chisei,
"The meng ghosts rush to fight, and they will inevitably be in a hurry. The offensive and defensive formations will collapse, and the defeat is already doomed. Of course, you still need to attack in the final blow to destroy the dead and uproot them."
"You mean the Paradise Hall?"
"Yes," Tachibana Masamune nodded slightly, "The person in charge of the Kukakukan is Sakurai Kogure, codenamed Ryoma. It is said that she is a peerless beauty and a enchanting beauty. Only through her can we get in touch with the core of the monsters - the Dragon King Source. Childish girl, even if it’s for the childish girl’s sake, I must capture her alive.”
"Understood." Yuan Zhisheng nodded and said after a moment of silence, "Aren't you going to ask me something?"
"This is all your choice, childish," Tachibana Masamune's eyes were kind and kind, "You are the future master of the Snake Qibachi family. Some things have to be decided by you, although I think this is the Snake Qibachi family. A chance to cut off the shackles, but if you don’t feel that way, of course we will comply with your wishes.”
"Ange is standing behind them," Yuan Zhisheng explained, "The Sheqiba family is not ready yet, at least..."
"At least we have to find the holy remains first." Masamune Tachibana took over Minamoto's words, "The head of the Miyamoto family is already working on this matter. He has determined the location of the well where the remains are hidden, and the digging of the red well has been advanced. It’s on the agenda.”
"That's it..." Yuan Zhisheng's voice contained some relief, "The fate of the eight Sheqi families for hundreds of years has finally come to an end."
"Um."
——
Fingel slowly opened his eyes.
The light of the crystal lamp pierced him so much that he couldn't open his eyes, and the strong smell of perfume made him cough twice. He felt weightless, as if he was lying on a cloud, and there was a maid with blond hair in a purple skirt sitting next to him. fan.
Is this a treatment only given to Caesar?
When will it be his turn?
Even in his groggy state, Fingel still felt that something was not right.
The girl next to me exudes a very familiar aura, as if I have known her for a long time. Her blond hair is so dazzling... Among the people I know, who has such dazzling blond hair? The breasts are still so plump...
Oh shit! It's Caesar!
Fingel's mind suddenly became clear.
The person sitting next to him was not a maid at all. It was Caesar in a purple suit. The suit was cut so close to his body that it almost couldn't hold his chest muscles. The girl also had a white lace scarf tucked into the collar, paired with a shiny diamond collar button.
Although this guy has always been very cool, this outfit... is really handsome and shiny.
But what to say?
It's like a beautiful girl wearing a thigh-high purple short skirt, white lace stockings, a garter belt exposed between the lace edge and the skirt, and transparent high heels...
The word "temptation" is clearly written on it, but it's not stylish enough.
"Boss, your clothes..." Fingel hesitated. The word "Feng Shao" was stuck in his mouth and he couldn't say it. Chu Zihang, who was sitting on the other side, helped him say it.
Fingel turned his head and saw Chu Zihang who looked equally bright.
Translucent blue and white kimono, dotted with waves like waves
In the picture, you can vaguely see the pink lining of the kimono through the light, like the ronin who stayed in the flower street during the Heian period - the kind who worked in the flower street when they had no money.
"I think I have traveled through time." Fingel rubbed his face, "Could it be that the boss and junior students in this world are both girls?"
"No, you just slept too long," Caesar said.
"Will you hallucinate while sleeping!?"
"This is not an illusion." Caesar slapped Fingel on the thigh, and Fingel let out an "ouch" in pain.
"Hiss—" Fingel rubbed his thighs, "So why are you guys wearing this kind of clothes...do you have my share?"
"Of course," Caesar said, "We are now in Gao Tianyuan - not the one under the sea - Gu Bei brought us back, but all our clothes were thrown away in the wash, so we can only wear the ones here temporarily."
"Aren't there any normal clothes here!?"
"They are all work clothes for cowherds," Caesar held up two pieces of clothing, one with jeans slit to the hip, and the other with a transparent shirt like a layer of gauze, "Which one do you like?"
[In view of the general environment,
"Is there no other choice?"
"Of course," Caesar pointed to the pile of clothes behind him, "Choose whatever you want. If you can find clothes that are more normal than what Chu Zihang and I are wearing, you are considered better."
Okay, Fingel understood. The pile of clothes was probably the leftovers from these two picks. He rubbed his head: "How long did I sleep?"
Chu Zihang calculated the time: "Twenty-four hours...less than"
"No wonder I feel so hungry." Fingel was shocked and touched his stomach.
"Probably not. Although you slept for twenty-four hours, you still groaned during the three meals in the morning, lunch and evening. I tried to feed you milk and soft bread. You ate smoothly, and you ate better than the average person. More." Gu Bei walked in from the door and looked at Fingel with a speechless look in his eyes. "Although you ate a lot, you just didn't wake up. I thought you were going to burp."
"By the way," Gu Bei took Fingel's cell phone from the side, "The principal called you before, and I answered it. He asked you to bring the Dragon Bone Cross back - what is the Dragon Bone Cross?"
"It is the source of the Dragon King's power," Xia Mi also opened the curtain and walked in, looking at Fingel with an unkind expression.
The arrival of Xia Mi also made the atmosphere in the room more solemn.
Caesar and Fingel both knew that in this situation, they needed to make a statement.
