Chapter 284 Seeking revenge X questioning X returning
Every September 1st is the time when Youkexin holds a grand auction.
During this period, countless gangster families will flock to the place.
Even if these gangster families have no interest in the auction items, they are willing to spend money to bid.
Because the behind-the-scenes organizer of You Kexin is the top leader of gangsters in the world, ten old men who control six continents and ten districts.
So some gangster families who want to show their faces in front of ten old men, or increase their sense of presence, will spend a lot of money in the auction house every year.
Kou Kou was born in the Hex family among the ten old men. As the nominal next helm, she holds a huge property.
The many auction items that need to be processed at present are her priorities in the near future.
And these valuable antique jewelry and other auction items will go through a period of momentum, and then make their debut at the Youkexin Auction in September.
Some of the auction items will be sold in advance to potential customers with deep pockets.
Anyway—
Maximizing the sale value of the auction items is exactly what Kou Kou wants to do.
This will be a huge income.
Among all the auction items, Kou Kou felt the most troublesome was the blood-patterned long knife that needed to get rid of the death thoughts, and his favorite was the crown inlaid with seven-color gems.
「The End of the Monka Expeditionary Force」
is the name of the crown.
The seven-color gemstones on it, which are called rare treasures, come from seven countries that were very prosperous in history, and they are also the spoils of war obtained by the Mengka Expeditionary Force during their invasion and expansion.
These trophies were finally gathered in one place and cast into today's very historic and valuable crown.
It symbolizes the apex of power, the illustrious achievements of the Monka Expeditionary Force, countless blood and war, and the defeat of the Seven Kingdoms.
Now—
It has emerged from the bottomless abyss of history, and it is presented to the world today, which will inevitably lead to a bloodbath related to money.
"This year…"
Kou Kona's slender index finger slid across the photo of the crown, his eyes showed anticipation, and he said to himself: "It will be very 'lively'."
Almost predictable—
This year's Youkexin Auction will attract countless top rich people.
There is still half a year left before the auction starts.
Before that, it is necessary to "warm up" well.
The most important thing right now is to find a nemesis master to get rid of the death lingering on the blood pattern knife.
"Give you another month."
Kou Kou squinted at the man in black standing beside him.
She really didn't believe it.
Driven by money, can't find a nemesis teacher?
"clear."
The man in black bowed his head and replied in a deep voice.
"correct."
Kou Kou suddenly thought of something, his eyes turned slightly cold, and he asked in a cold voice: "I asked you to investigate the Phantom Troupe, how is the progress now?"
"I'm sorry, Miss Koko."
The man in black lowered his head and said:
"Even if all the intelligence channels are used, no information related to the Phantom Brigade can be found. They are like a group of people who have 'never existed'. Since their birth... no, there is no information about their birth."
"..."
Listening to what the man in black said, Kou Kou said nothing, but her eyes grew colder.
Meteor Street...
Kou Kou muttered to herself.
She is not stupid.
After listening to the results of the report, it became clear that the Phantom Brigade was not an ordinary A-level criminal group.
If you want to fight against this kind of existence, it will definitely be a matter of harm but not benefit.
However-
She still couldn't swallow that breath.
"Go."
After a while, Kou Kou said coldly.
The man in black bowed his head and immediately exited the room.
Kou Kou listened to the sound of footsteps fading away, crossed her hands on her chin, her eyes were cold.
It is obviously unrealistic to fight against the entire Phantom Troupe.
but-
Kou Kou actually didn't think about competing against the entire Phantom Troupe.
What she wants is to kill the man who tried to **** her before.
"There has to be a way."
"Being able to stay out of the matter, but also guarantee to kill that bastard."
Kou Kou stared ahead, his tone made no secret of the cold killing intent.
She quickly thought of a way.
Hired killers.
Scenic spots, temples.
Leisure days will eventually come to an end.
On this day, Kang Jae and Pijorn received commissions from the Hunter Association one after another.
This also means that the "vacation" of the two of them is officially over.
"I don't need to go out frequently to collect ingredients anymore, just thinking about it makes me feel relaxed."
Regarding Kang Jae and Pijorn who are about to leave, Men Qi expressed his opinion very bluntly.
Kang Jae didn't care at all, and ran over cheekily to ask Men Qi to make the most sumptuous farewell banquet.
Men Qi responded with a blank stare.
However, she still didn't agree with her heart, and seriously prepared a table of sumptuous delicacies.
She doesn't like Pijorn, she doesn't do anything all day long, she just stays in the room to pester Master.
But Kang Jae is better, he usually helps out, or takes the initiative to go hunting for food in the mountains.
Based on this alone, Men Qi should naturally satisfy Kang Jae's request before leaving.
After eating the sumptuous lunch carefully prepared by Men Qi, it was time for Kang Jae and Pjorn to leave.
Moyou and Menqi sent the two of them to the gate.
"Be careful on the road."
"Um."
Kangjae and Pjorn stepped down the stairs one after the other.
Moyou watched them leave until he could no longer see their backs before closing the gate of the temple.
In the mountains and forests.
Kangjae and Pjorn are walking on the mountain road.
"Hey, Rabbit."
Kang Zaihu's opening.
Pjorn glanced at him, waiting for the next sentence.
Kang Zai looked forward without squinting, and said without beginning or end: "You really like Moyou very much."
"how?"
Pjorn sensed something was wrong, and squinted at Kang Jae's side face.
Kang Jae shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just a little emotional."
"Ah, did you take the wrong medicine today?"
Pjorn narrowed his eyes slightly.
Kang Jae did not speak back this time, and remained silent.
Pjorn noticed something, and didn't speak any more.
The two walked down the mountain road without saying a word.
After a while.
Pyorn suddenly sighed: "Kang Jae, you are not as dull as you appear."
"Tch."
Kang Jae snorted coldly, too lazy to tear each other up with Pyorn, mainly because he really couldn't tear Pyorn apart in terms of words.
"me."
Pyorn stopped in his tracks, looked back at the direction of the temple, and said, "A long time ago... well, it should be said that he 'watched' Moyou when he was dealing with the 'Marsh Man Incident'."
"..."
Kang Jae also stopped when he heard the words, and turned his head to look at Pjorn.
Pjorn slowly looked back at the temple, and said seriously:
"It's just that at that time... what I 'see' is his talent and potential, Moyou... he is really outstanding, the closer you get to him, the more dazzling the 'light' on him will be."
"So that's why you started to 'tangle' Moyu from then on."
Kang Jae had his hands in his pockets, and it was rare that he could hit the nail on the head.
Pjorn smiled and said: "I don't deny it, and I'm even willing to post it backwards. If it were you, it would be impossible for you to ignore a potential stock that has a bright future at first glance, right?"
"..."
Kang Jae was silent again, only this time he was acquiescing.
Yes.
No professional hunter would ignore a potential stock with dazzling light.
The ability of that guy Moyu...
is a pitch-black shadow.
But that talent and talent are dazzling lights.
It was so dazzling that he felt dazzling, even if he wanted to deliberately ignore it, it was impossible to do so.
"Kang Jae, although I don't know which nerve you're suffering from, but..."
Pjorn looked at the silent Kang Jae, restrained his smile a little, and said calmly: "My attitude towards Moyu, even my feelings...doesn't have anything to do with 'using'."
"See it."
Kang Jae raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, curled his lips and said, "I don't understand women, but I'm not so stupid that I can't see anything."
"Then what kind of nerves were you committing just now?"
Pjorn said bluntly.
Kangzai heard the words, looked in the direction of the temple, and said: "After all, I have been loitering for so long, I have to do something that I think I can repay."
"What do you think, I have no interest at all."
Pyorn stared at Kang Jae, the light smile in the coral eyes quickly faded, replaced by a sharp luster, and said in an unquestionable tone:
"But don't try to interfere with us."
"You can rest assured about this, Pjorn."
Kang-jae raised his hands and hugged the back of his head.
He had confirmed that Pjorn's feelings for Moyu were pure, so he walked straight towards the mountain road, saying as he walked:
"The thing I don't like to do the most is to ask for fun. Even if you want to rely on Moyou to do something in the future, I can't get involved, because you people always like to complicate things, and it's a headache to think about it. .”
"It's asking for boredom, you Chinese idiot, when will you be able to improve a bit."
"Smelly rabbit, you don't care what I say, as long as you understand it anyway?"
"Could that be the same thing?"
"I don't care that much."
"idiot."
The two continued to descend along the mountain road.
The slightly heavy atmosphere just now dissipated in silence.
Without Kang Jae and Pyorn, the temple suddenly became much deserted.
While Men Qi was happy, she was also a little uncomfortable.
Moyo too.
Only he was quick to adjust, without even replacing the bunny-patterned sheets Pjorn had left behind.
Every day after that, Moyou did not swing the knife again, but instead devoted more time and energy to the practice of "flow" and "hardness".
Moyou's current mastery of these two advanced reading skills is probably around "D-".
If there is no shortcut provided by perception, then he will have to spend some effort to improve the proficiency of these two skills.
In the days of practicing high-level mindfulness skills, Moyou has not started to create the "Mirror Flower Water Moon System".
Instead, the "Speed Ability Cornerstone" was first injected into the black knife system, thus obtaining a powerful means of attack.
"The more and more complicated the abilities you master, the slower the efficiency and speed of improvement, and you may fall into the middle way."
"But I have a feeling that sometimes I can chew too much if I get too much."
"At present, besides 'flow' and 'hardness', the focus should be on improving, as well as the strength of the manifest and potential aura, as well as the strength of the 'exhausted' aura."
"Before then, I really want to try the actual combat effect of 'All Extinction'."
"After Hawk comes back, let's go to the Sky Arena again."
"By the way, I don't know if Qi Ya is still in the Sky Arena, and I haven't contacted him for a long time."
Moyou stopped in front of the altar in the main hall, his eyes revealed the color of thinking.
Even if he was just thinking about some things, he didn't waste the time that could be used for cultivation. He just closed his fine pores and put himself in an absolute state.
In this way, you can think about things while improving the accuracy of "absolute".
Even put the shadow clone outside, which can improve the proficiency of "fat" at the same time.
Originally after Hawk officially escaped from danger, Moyou thought that he would not be so obsessed with running speed on the road to becoming stronger in the future, so that he could relax a bit.
But some things are already used to it, and it is not easy to change it back.
"Um?"
After a long time, the shadow clone of Moyou saw a figure walking along the mountain road.
is Hawke.
"I don't even say in advance if I want to come back."
Seeing Hawke come back without saying a word, Moyou was quite helpless.
Outside the gate of the temple.
Hawk looked at the brand-new wooden door, and his eyes fell on the three-dimensional wood carving of a tiger head on the door involuntarily.
"Really, this broken door really should be replaced, but a place like a temple can't have such heavy wood carvings as 'murderous'."
Looking at the wood carving of a tiger's head on the door, Hawke felt that it was not something that Moyou would make.
It should be made by some idiot who lacks common sense.
he thought to himself.
(Kang-jae, who was thousands of miles away, suddenly sneezed three times.)
"Forget it, just find a time to cut it off."
Hoke shook his head, then raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door.
After a while.
The door slowly opened.
Men Qi poked her head out, and then saw Hawke who had recovered from his injuries. He was taken aback for a moment, and then greeted somewhat restrainedly, "Uncle Hawke, you're back."
After all, it was the first time in a sense that I had contact with my master and dad, so I couldn't leave a bad impression.
Hoke looked Men Qi up and down, and asked tentatively: "Are you... Moyou's object?"
"what?"
Men Qi was stunned again, and after realizing it, she hurriedly shook her head and said, "No."
Hawk quickly asked: "Then what is your relationship?"
"We are a master-student relationship!"
Hoke asked questions quickly, and Menqi answered quickly.
"Master and apprentice..."
Hawke pondered for a while, and then solemnly said: "It's okay, the concept is very open these days, and the relationship between master and apprentice will not be an obstacle for you."
"what?"
Men Qi was a little bit overwhelmed by Hawk's brain circuit.
At this moment, Shubao's bouncing sound came, which attracted Hawke's attention and helped Menqi out of the siege.
"Yo, mouse baby."
With a smile on his face, he walked over quickly.
When Shubao saw Hawke, he threw himself on Hawke excitedly, screaming.
Hoke stroked Shubao's little head, smiling all over his face.
only-
Seeing Shubao, Hawke unconsciously recalled the conversation with Qido in the hospital.
「The reason cannot be determined. It may be the sequelae of the curse of Libra, or it may be that you have overused your ability. Anyway, you don’t have a few years to live now.」
「Kita, I’m also a patient anyway, can’t you be more tactful?」
"cannot."
"This…"
「Do you want to talk to Moyu?」
「Don’t, don’t say it for now…」
Hawk stroked Shu Bao gently.
Can't be sure how many years are left...
But it should be enough.
Enough for him to condense his will during this period of time, so that Shubao will not dissipate because of his death.
Pull up...
The light and shadow chapter ends.
