Ke Xue World: The Confrontation between Black and Red

We are bombarded with 360-degree information online, offline, in the open and in the dark.

After a morning,

Everyone in Vladivostok, whether permanent residents or temporary residents, passively received this lost and found notice.

In the eyes of most people who don't understand the situation, this is no different from a real-life paid treasure hunt game.

The reward amount with so many zeros made countless people's eyes light up, and they silently memorized the reward content in their hearts.

While complaining about how rich people really know how to have fun, most people will also fantasize about getting this windfall themselves.

But in the eyes of those who are interested, the meaning of this lost and found notice is worth exploring.

Staring at the decorative pattern on the lost and found notice, Yefrosinia, who was wearing a red dress in the style of the Rose Palace, tapped the back of the sofa with her fingertips, as if thinking about something.

“Instead of looking for the admission ticket that was stolen by the crow, you spent so much time looking for an autographed photo.

It’s really interesting.”

Alexei was determined to quit.

Or maybe there is a new force involved behind that autographed photo.

The sunlight poured in from the window and fell evenly on Yefrosiniya who was sitting on the sofa by the window.

The beautiful wine-red slightly curly long hair looked like a bunch of blooming roses in the sun, and the intricate patterns on her red skirt were dyed with a layer of light golden soft light.

"Send someone to keep an eye on Alexei. I want to see what tricks he is planning to play."

"Yes."

The butler who was waiting on the side bowed his head and responded.

"By the way, has the whereabouts of the person behind Jia Ke's power not been discovered yet?"

When this was mentioned, Yefrosinia's face showed some displeasure.

Mingming Jiake is an outside force, and its foundation in this city is far less than that of the local forces that have taken root in Elose.

But there has been no news since he left the airport, and there has been no news since then.

The person sent to track him lost half his life and was finally rescued, but there was no useful information at all.

The butler showed a trace of helplessness on his face and said:

"After all, your intention is to prevent Master Friedman from finding out, and our people cannot make too much noise.

In addition, judging from what happened last night, Jia Ke did not come alone."

It was obvious that Jia Ke had made all the plans in advance.

If you want to find the person, you have to put up posters all over the city like the eldest son of the Friedman family who made a big fuss and wanted the whole world to know about it.

Otherwise, we can only wait for Jia Ke to take action and cause some trouble.

Hearing this, the elegant and noble second daughter of the Smeliansky family showed a look of boredom on her face, but it disappeared completely in an instant.

"Forget it, it's just one less show to watch."

It’s a bit of a pity, but it doesn’t matter.

The most exciting performances are always performed last.

She will definitely not miss it later.

Thinking of this, Yefrosiniya couldn't help but think of the one at home who often made a lot of noise.

An elder sister who is always in her life, performing one drama after another and enriching her life.

So she turned her head to look at the housekeeper.

"My sister seems to be very quiet lately."

The butler did not say anything, but Yefrosinia seemed to be awakened by his words and stood up from the sofa immediately.

The hem of her red skirt danced gently as she stood up and paced thoughtfully on the carpet. The intricate golden patterns seemed to come alive in the sunlight.

Yefrosinia narrowed her eyes slightly and began to feel uneasy.

"Veronica has been so quiet lately that I almost forgot about her.

There is definitely something wrong here. Immediately contact the spy next to Veronica. I want to know her detailed schedule for the past month."

Just as the butler was about to leave, Yefrosinia paused and said in a cold and slow tone:

"Also... take the key and check if our credentials are still there."

The butler looked up in disbelief, shock evident in his eyes.

"This... This is impossible."

Yefrosiniya did not speak, but a deeper dark color unconsciously appeared in her gray-blue eyes.

She also hoped that this was just a wrong guess.

Otherwise, the pleasure of watching other people's houses on fire would be lost to Alexei, the arrogant and wisecracking man.

And those other spectators who were already eyeing the scene eagerly...

...

This afternoon in Vladivostok,

It was a sunny day that made most residents, who had experienced the extreme cold and heavy snow in the past few days, smile happily.

The clouds that blocked out the stars and the moon last night were now reduced to just a few thin floating clouds.

Almost no one noticed that the temperature today dropped a little compared to the previous two days.

There are only a few poetic clouds left in the daytime because the wind last night was stronger than the previous two days.

Tourists who come to Vladivostok don't care about this.

Tourists who came here for sightseeing and to experience the largest gambling district in El Rose also noticed the lost and found notices posted all over the streets.

But in comparison, they are not very interested in this matter.

Most people treat this as a new topic of conversation, and at most think of sharing it with friends and family after returning home.

However, there are always exceptions to everything.

Bathed in the sunlight streaming in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Fujiko Mine looked at the special lost and found notice that had been published in the free magazine that came with the hotel's afternoon tea during check-in. It had occupied the entire night.

His eyes fell on the name described in the autographed photo on the lost and found notice and he read it out softly.

"Sharon Wynyard."

Vermouth, you used someone else's hand to make such a big move, is it really just to find an autographed photo, or to find someone through this?"

"Boom boom boom!"

The sudden knock on the door made Mine Fujiko look a little frightened, but she quickly relaxed.

After opening the door, the first thing that caught Fujiko Mine's eye was a bunch of dewy Naomi roses.

Behind the rose is Lupin the Third, wearing a hotel staff uniform and showing his signature smile.

In the distance stood Jigen Daisuke and Ishikawa Gou, the gatekeepers, who were not visible at all, keeping a long distance away.

Fujiko Mine looked Lupin the Third up and down, then opened the door and let the three of them in.

But he did not take the rose from Lupin III.

Lupin the Third didn't mind at all. After entering the room, he took a quick look around and then placed the Naomi rose in his hand on the flowerpot ornament on the small coffee table.

Then he took a step back and looked at it for two seconds, then exclaimed to himself:

“It’s like this flower was born here.”

Sitting on the sofa, Feng Fujiko glanced at the three people who came over and said:

"Come quite early."

Jigen Daisuke found a seat farthest away and glanced at Lupin the Third who was approaching him actively, without any desire to speak.

He took out a cigarette box, lit a cigarette, and pulled the brim of his hat.

"If Fujiko wants to find me, I must be there as soon as possible."

Having said that, Lupin the Third sat down next to Mine Fujiko without any courtesy.

Fujiko Mine pushed the magazine in front of Lupin the Third and said:

"The auction for the jeweled crown won't start until a week later. Take a look at this first."

Lupin III only glanced at her, then looked away and looked at Fujiko Mine:

"You want to get involved?"

He saw the lost and found notice as soon as he entered Vladivostok.

Not only are they posted everywhere, but even on the exterior display screens of many commercial buildings, they are playing in a loop.

"I just received new information that the jeweled crown is no longer on the auction list that will be held in a week.

Instead, it became a giveaway at another mysterious auction on the same day.

It will be given to the successful bidder.”

When he heard the word mysterious, Lupin III instantly understood the relationship here.

He glanced down at the lost and found notice in the magazine.

"Where do you plan to start?"

"The information about the mysterious auction was strictly blocked. The only information that was deliberately revealed was the jewel crown."

Mine Fujiko was inexplicably certain that the lost and found notices posted all over the city were related to Vermouth.

And it is definitely related to the mysterious auction related to the jeweled crown she wants.

But more information is simply not available now.

The jewel crown has been missing since this morning, and the situation in the underground black market here is also not right.

And the atmosphere of this whole city is very problematic.

Lupin III recalled that after he got off the plane this morning, he observed the lockdown situation at Vladivostok International Airport, which seemed normal but was actually tight on the outside but loose on the inside.

As well as the sense of surveillance that seemed to be omnipresent hanging over the entire city, I had a rough idea in my mind.

Daisuke Jigen, who was sitting far away, wanted to cover his ears.

This way, you won't be able to hear Lupin nodding and saying yes to whatever Mine Fujiko says.

Gatekeeper Ishikawa Goe does not have this worry. Although he sits quite far away, he has his own pace of life.

For example, at this moment, he picked up the glass teapot on the small coffee table and not only poured himself a cup, but also poured a cup for Jigen Daisuke beside him.

Once again, night falls.

After a day of wandering outside, Vermouth finally returned to Karasuma Soshin's private residence before the last rays of dusk faded away.

After entering the door, Vermouth breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see Karasuma Soshin.

The next second, I looked up and saw Karasuma Soshin appear at the stairs on the second floor.

He was holding a stack of familiar-looking documents in his hand and had a black headset on his right ear.

Following Vermouth into the room, the men dressed as bodyguards did not show any surprise when they saw what happened.

After putting the pile of colorful shopping bags in their hands on the sofa in the living room, they all lowered their eyes and waited for the next instructions from Vermouth and Karasuma Soshin.

Karasuma Soshin walked downstairs with the documents and sat on the sofa where he had sat in the morning.

He put the documents in his hand into the small suitcase that he brought with him when Laforge came in the morning but did not take with him.

Then he locked the box and instructed the only one among the bodyguards who came in without a shopping bag:

"This is what you have to take with you. Take it."

Mini-theater 1: Main World Card-drawing Movie-Gin's Weakness (10)

After taking care of another noisy person, Yuegamaru slowly shifted his gaze to the third noisy person, Akai Shuichi.

But before Yuegamaru could speak, Akai Shuichi wisely shut his mouth, lowered his eyes, and no longer looked at him.

Before, Toru Amuro and Getsugamaru spoke in low voices.

But Shuichi Akai, who was sitting next to Toru Amuro, was able to hear the conversation between the two clearly thanks to his excellent hearing.

When he saw that Getsugamaru could silence Amuro Toru with just a few words, and even shake his fundamental beliefs.

He finally realized that Mubury Gin's inner evaluation of Yuegamaru was not exaggerated at all.

This person can really see through people's hearts at a glance and accurately grasp everyone's pain points.

Seeing that Akai Shuichi wisely shut up, Yuegamaru thought that his ears were finally quiet.

While looking away.

But he did not return his attention to the curtain which was still dark, but turned his head and glanced at Gin who was sitting in the black seat.

At this time, Gin also looked at Yuegamaru in time. The two of them only made eye contact for less than a second before quickly retracting their eyes.

On the white side,

She heard the whispers around her and felt the various gazes constantly directed at her and her son.

Yuuki Sanada guessed what would appear on the curtain next and couldn't help but show worry in her eyes. The next second, she heard the comforting voice of her youngest son.

"Don't worry, mom. Big brother will be fine."

While comforting his mother, Sanada Yasuyuki firmly thought that no matter what, he would not allow anyone to hurt his brother.

"Yes, the eldest brother is the best."

Masahiko Sanada, who was sitting between Kenjiro Sanada and Minako Sanada, also spoke up.

Before being pulled into the theater, he happened to be trying on his newly bought racing suit. At this moment, he looked the same as before, except for a racing helmet.

And that helmet was now held in his arms.

Masahiro Sanada, who was sitting between his two sons, had a look of deep solemnity in his eyes from the moment the crescent moon appeared on the screen.

The same was true of Hojo Yoshimune, who was sitting in front of him.

Yuegamaru appeared on the screen, and he was a Yuegamaru who had such a close relationship with Gin, the number one killer of the Black Organization.

For them, this was a completely unexpected and thrilling event.

Especially Masahiro Sanada, who knew his eldest grandson's temperament very well.

As soon as he heard the last few words, he knew that his eldest grandson, who had always been naughty and had very high standards, really regarded Gin as a close friend.

The last sentence is a question.

But Yueyawan was undoubtedly showing his serious attitude of doing his best to help.

It has been many years since we have seen such a serious and sharp Yueyamaru Masao Sanada.

He also guessed what would appear on the screen next and couldn't help feeling worried.

After the movie is over, Yuegamaru will definitely become a thorn in the eyes of many people, and that child will never allow others to threaten Yuki, Anxing and the others.

If the scene of Yueyawan killing someone was shown on the screen, how would he be able to protect him then?

Time passed quickly as Sanada Masahiro was thinking.

Not long after, the mechanical sound of an alien consciousness was heard again in the theater.
