The daily life of Bat Cubs traveling through Yokohama

Before officially turning on the shielding signal device, Jason used the short-range mobile device and detection auxiliary props to shuttle through the forest centering on the bungalows in the distance, exploring the traces of MIMIC's soldier deployment and traps.

After the shielding field is turned on later, the remote detection props will be more or less affected.

In order to "become" a predictor, one must predict the enemy's possible attack methods in the next action, simulate on the spot and make timely responses, and the enemy may respond to various possible responses.

It's been a long time, and in order to always seize the opportunity, the surprise attack that is about to cut into the battle situation as accurately as a scalpel...

Next-

Jason closed his eyes and turned on the special function of the contact lens, and his appearance changed dramatically.

The magnetic field from Kryptonian technology covers the whole body, and will not be affected by the world's earth technology. It is completely possible to pass the few "game levels" in front of the MIMIC chief, attracting the attention of peripheral soldiers to him, and completely overwhelm him. The sentinel found out that he was not Odasaku, and the chance of tipping off the inside and outside was minimized.

And MIMIC said they are in a world without any hope, abandoned by the gods...

"Oda Sakunosuke" opened his eyes. In those empty blue eyes, there was the ghost-like eyes of all MIMIC soldiers - the eyes of the dead.

Before this man in a beige trench coat rushed into the "battlefield", his mouth stretched out an arrogant smile that didn't match his eyes and seemed particularly disobedient.

——'I took this order for garbage cleaning. '

Location, main office building at Port Mafia.

The young man in a suit wearing a long black trench coat hurriedly stepped on the carpet in the corridor, every step was heavy as if it could make a sound on it.

Two men in black suits standing guard in front of the French doors stepped forward to block the door.

"Master Dazai, you can't—"

"Get lost." Osamu Dazai replied in a toneless tone.

He didn't even give the two guards in front of the chief's office a look. Just because of the piercing coolness emanating from him that could penetrate the soul, the two tall men in black suits in front of the door were embarrassed. Step back and get out of the way.

The door was opened with a "bang", breaking the quiet atmosphere in the office.

Mori Ogai was sitting behind a large desk, with his head down, reviewing work documents.

Hearing the movement, Mori Ogai raised his head, just in time to see Osamu Dazai rushing to the desk and will stop.

"Oh? It's actually Dazai-kun," Mori Ogai put the document aside, put the cap on the pen and put the pen on the paper, "It's really rare to see, what's the matter, is there anything wrong?"

Hearing the words, Osamu Dazai stared at Mori Ogai suddenly, lost the interest of gagging in the past, and said straightforwardly: "Boss, why?"

Mori Ogai smiled. His smile faded a few times, and the dark light in his purple eyes flowed. He looked straight back at Dazai, "Dazai-kun, do you still need to ask me? This point--you know it best ."

"He is an ally of Port Mafia, and we have interests with him—"

"Yes, that's true, but—it's limited to this." Mori Ogai interrupted Osamu Dazai, "Dazai-kun, it turns out—you still remember that he is just a partner."

Osamu Dazai's breath was stagnant, but he did not avoid Mori Ogai's cold gaze, his expression remained unchanged and calm.

"MIMIC is provoking the port of Mafia so much, we should fight back with an eye and support the Red Hood to destroy this group of exiled soldiers."

"Oh, but someone has already dealt with this. I don't dare to let my precious subordinates be lost worthlessly in the hands of MIMIC soldiers." Mori Ogai spread his hands and said in a sad tone. It all contains regret for the members of the organization who died before.

Osamu Dazai took a deep breath, and directly pulled out the black envelope with a corner exposed from the stack of documents pressed against the edge of the table.

Then, in front of Mori Ogai, Dazai unceremoniously opened the black high-grade envelope with bronzing letters, and took out a certificate with the government's seal - a license for opening a business with abilities.

"Red Hood hates people who stab in the back the most," Dazai held up the certificate in his hand, his eyes were calm, but his tone was stiff, "Your intentions, if Red Hood detects it in the future, it will bring a steady stream of damage to the organization." Trouble. There will be endless attacks from the Red Hood, which will jeopardize the development of the port of Mafia. Going now may be able to make up for it, and there may be room for explanation.”

Osamu Dazai didn't ask why Mori Ogai couldn't wait to get this certificate in advance, which he would get soon.

It's nothing more than something happened to the government, or some interest weight was added, asking Mori Ogai to solve this matter quickly.

This very valuable certificate was placed in front of Mori Ogai in advance, and it was an irresistible temptation for the leader of an illegal supernatural organization. If you get it as soon as possible, you will not be suppressed by the Supernatural Secret Service as soon as possible.

That's right, the port of Maifa had received a "promise" from the government before, but if this thing does not really fall into the hands, there may be various accidents in the future and it will be missed.

This is the "protective talisman" that Mori Ogai would not hesitate to lose a lot of human resources, even shake the foundation of the organization a little.

And the government showed this card in advance——

It is probably because MIMIC is a little more arrogant than expected, and the government has learned some kind of news.

In the future, MIMIC will go against the norm of only targeting the port of Mafia, and suddenly cause events like "Terrorists of the Blue Banner" that will seriously endanger social order.

Through Anwu, the government knew that this was another group of war lunatics who were unable to communicate and negotiate like the "King of Cang".

—— Mori Ogai can even sit on the ground and raise the price to get other benefits.

In this regard, although Osamu Dazai finds it difficult to...accept it, Mori Ogai will plot against Odasaku because of this, he...thought it out when the accident happened.

So it can be regarded as not surprising, but what surprised him was why it was necessary to add a red hood...

Osamu Dazai will not put his friends on the two ends of the scale to measure value, but he also knows that in the eyes of Mori Ogai, what is the loss of a low-level member whose ability will not be used by the organization, and the blow caused by hostility to the Red Hood? Which is more important.

Only Odasaku knows where the orphan he adopted is, so the only possibility for the enemy to get the information is that Mori Ogai went through a few procedures and leaked it.

Because the chief of MIMIC burst out a declaration of "courtship" with strong desire when he saw Odasaku for the first time, so the children were transferred away immediately when the situation was tense.

Of course, there are those Robin Darts that belonged to the new Robin that Dazai had exchanged with Xiaoyou in order to get the special Robin cloak.

Therefore, Robin knew the location information of the children in the same way as Mori Ogai "delivered" to MIMIC, and it was only after a period of time after MIMIC received the letter that Robin knew.

Robin and Red Hood have some kind of secret connection, Osamu Dazai didn't expect to keep Mori Ogai from it for long, at most he would guess that the two have a relationship, but there is still something wrong.

Free from the suppression of the Supernatural Secret Service, in exchange for Red Hood's brutal "stalking" in the future, and... Even if the port Mafia has been "cooperating" for a long time, its own scientific research department has gained experience from special weapons and developed new weapons , but that's nothing compared to what the Red Hood offers.

Chief Mimic's superpowers are indeed very powerful and difficult to deal with, and his soldiers are also experienced death squads, and Mori Ogai may have learned from some way that Jason was seriously injured not long ago...

But how can this guarantee that the Red Hood will fight MIMIC to the end, and will not run away or escape with his own ability?

As long as the red hood is still alive, maybe Mori Ogai doesn't know that the red hood is connected with the Armed Detective Agency, and he can get the help of the member with the ability to heal.

Ke Mori Ogai must have learned from Chuya and his physical condition after the incident at the Saibo Street Center that the Red Hood also has extraordinary medical technology in terms of treatment.

At this moment, Osamu Dazai's heart was beating like a drum, and thick clouds floated in front of his eyes, covering something unknown.

In addition to the certificate and some benefits that the government can promise, there must be... there must be some key information that he does not know.

what is...? !What is it-

"In the future?" A strange smile appeared on Mori Ogai's face, "I am really touched by Dazai-kun's concern for the organization, but Dazai-kun can rest assured that the port Mafia will continue to develop well, after all—"

"Rintaro, I'll play with this~"

In the spacious office, a young girl's delicate voice suddenly sounded.

Simultaneously with the voice of speaking, there was the sound of paper being torn.

According to the reputation, Alice in a bright red dress appeared in the office at some point. She was sitting on the high table near the wall opposite the panoramic glass floor-to-ceiling windows, dangling her calves while folding her hands. paper.

On the wall not far from Alice, there is a round dart board with several darts stuck around it and at the corners.

From the position of these darts, it can be seen that the level of the dart thrower is not very good, no, it is very bad.

At the position next to the dart board parallel to the red heart in the center, a dart was stuck on the dark wall, and a small piece of paper was stuck under the dart needle.

"Alice-chan, take a look at the gift I bought for you. Waste paper is nothing interesting, go back to the house and unpack it~" Mori Ogai's tone was full of connivance, like a helpless parent who was interrupted by a child when an adult was talking , but didn't want to scold her beloved child, so she had to coax her to leave by herself.

Alice is like a cat who never cares about the mood of the poop shoveler. She disdains the toys that the breeder bought after careful selection, but happily pounces on boxes, paper balls and other waste play around.

The paper airplane took shape in Alice's hands, and she maliciously threw it at Osamu Dazai's head.

But because it had a gap in the tail, it only swayed in the air a few times before falling, and it also slid a certain distance on the ground.

"Hmph, boring." Seeing this, Alice jumped off the small table and left angrily on her little black leather shoes.

Osamu Dazai looked at the paper airplane parked not far from his feet, and accidentally caught a glimpse of some words exposed on the wings, his iris-colored pupils suddenly constricted.

If Osamu Dazai wanted to make some efforts to bring some combat power to reduce the possibility of Jason being seriously injured or..., then now...

"Yes—that's it..." There was a soft sigh that didn't seem to come from his own mouth.

Osamu Dazai froze on the spot, the blood all over his body drove him to turn around and run out immediately, but his legs seemed to be firmly nailed to the ground, and he couldn't move easily even a single step.

It seemed like a long while, and it seemed like only a moment, that Osamu Dazai finally moved. He restrained his trembling fingertips, bent down and picked up the heavy paper airplane.

The paper airplane was unfolded, it was a secret wanted warrant jointly issued, and in the corner was the seal of the member countries of the "Sky Eye Alliance". *

In the center of the top is a bust of the Red Hood, and in the middle are densely written several crimes committed by the Red Hood internationally...

That's not the point, the Red Hood himself is already on Interpol's most wanted list, not to mention he's on the front row.

But -

In the lower left corner of the secret wanted notice, there is a somewhat blurred but clearly visible image of the equipment—the iconic mask unique to Red Hood, alongside various testimonies of mercenaries who participated in the Middle East war.

The most ridiculous thing is that the evidence described below has been charged with obstructing and interfering with international aid to the Middle East, and...undermining world peace.

There must be corresponding conclusive evidence files behind the various crimes briefly listed on this piece of paper.

The files do not need to be handed down to the governments of defeated countries like them. As long as those countries confirm the authenticity of the materials in their hands, they can directly issue their secret arrest warrants with sufficient "credibility" seals to those who had National hands with red hood trail.

Osamu Dazai closed his eyes, the edge of the paper in his hand was wrinkled, and the fingertips pinched on the wrinkle were slightly white.

"It's not just this one, it's just a secret wanted warrant issued by one of them," Mori Ogai's smile deepened, "There are also wanted warrants from other countries, would Dazai-kun want to see it?"

"..." The person standing in front of the desk didn't answer, just stared silently with his eyes lowered, the paper in his hand had already seen and memorized every word.

At this moment, he seemed to have fallen into the dream of the rusty world again.

"Hmm..." A soldier with a collar patch on his chest fell to the ground. He was the deputy commander of MIMIC.

Even though he was coughing up blood, his lips were still wriggling trying to say something.

"What else do you want to say?" The person who stepped on the deputy commander's chest looked down at him.

"Thank you... for giving us this salvation," the deputy commander smiled weakly, "Commander too... please—"

"Bah—"

"?!" The deputy commander's eyes widened suddenly, his expression frozen in disbelief.

'What? !He is not……'

At the last moment when his consciousness dissipated, the face of the person above fluctuated strangely, and the dry blue in his eyes was suddenly covered by an unfamiliar dark green.

"Ah, I'm sorry, my hand slipped." The unexpected spoiler, that is, Jason, expressed apology, and raised his hand "at a loss", but then he said with a bad expression, "But I don't want to listen to nonsense , and the rest you go to hell to talk about.”

I'm sorry, but he doesn't want these people who have shot innocent people, especially children, to get any redemption.

He just wants to beat the shit out of these guys right now.

Oh, forgive his vulgarity.

But no one can count on people who wander the streets, and in this case, they can still recite sonnets for these people.

—Are they worthy?

Don't tell him what a tragic past they had. There are so many unlucky people in this world, and I don't see them all choosing to drag others into the water like them.

As long as the victim becomes the perpetrator, making this choice of their own volition, it doesn't matter what pain these people have.

As for those who persecute them behind the scenes, that is another matter, just another harmful garbage that needs to be cleaned up.

The stumbling blocks on the outside were almost completely kicked out, and Jason estimated in his heart that the progress on the other side of the chaos should be about the same.

Then, next-

"Bah—" A figure at the corner of the bustling street fell to the side of the alley out of sight of pedestrians.

Oda Sakunosuke dragged the man into the alley, tied him up and placed him next to the old furniture.

This is the person related to MIMIC who was identified by Edogawa Ranpo from the crowd at a glance, and it is also the secret sentry squatting near the last bomb site.

After confirming that this person would not wake up in a short time, and all the sharp weapons on his body were searched and hung up, Odasaku straightened up and nodded towards Ranbu at the entrance of the alley.

'Go! 'Ranbu urged silently with his mouth open.

Odasaku saw Ranbu's mouth shape clearly, turned around and ran towards the building not far behind him.

Jason passed the deputy commander like passing a stone.

After a while, he came to the oak door leading to the ballroom in this bungalow.

He paused in front of the door, and then made no obvious movements, only glanced in a certain direction out of the window with the corner of his eye.

He didn't make him wait too long, and at the end of the darkening sky outside the window, a flickering red light with a tail of smoke rose up.

'very good. '

This boring game will be over soon.

Jason raised the corners of his lips slightly, pushed open the door quietly, and walked into the hall with a high ceiling.

At this time.

The man with his back to Jason in the middle of the hall turned around.

This time, the man didn't wear a hood, directly revealing his true face - long silver hair draped over his shoulders, and ghostly blood pupils narrowed in satisfaction.

He is - the chief of MIMIC, Andre Gide.

Also - the "final level boss" in Jason's eyes.

The only oddity, though, is that Gide is wearing a half-covering gas mask.

It seems that after realizing the possibility of Odasaku and Robin's cooperation, Robin may help Odasaku, or take advantage of the "□□" that Odasaku didn't pay attention to and buried him, and made a corresponding response precautionary measures.

Gide looked at those lifeless blue eyes, suppressed his excitement, and chanted to the person at the door, "If a grain of wheat doesn't fall to the ground and die, it's still a single grain; if it dies..."*

"If it's dead," the visitor tilted his head, his calm and calm tone suddenly changed, "Only he can produce a lot of bullets to kill you!"

"...?" Gide's eyes were dazed, and he immediately forgot what he said next.

"The Gospel of John Chapter 1224," "Oda Saku" had a mocking look in his blue eyes, "Tsk, they all say that they have been abandoned by the gods, and they still remember God's words?"

Gide felt that something was wrong, and said dumbfounded: "What—"

"Against you reciting poems?" The eyes of "Oda Saku" shone with light or dark blue under the dim light in the room, "Forget it, I refuse to have fun with people who have taken the wrong medicine and are unconscious. Talk about life."

Gide suddenly pulled out both hands Mukura pointed at Oda Tsukuru, he had an absurd idea - either Oda Tsukuru was stimulated to change his temperament, or - this person is not Sakunosuke at all!

"No——" Gide lifted the wooden bin for a second, and there was no confusion of images caused by the collision of the same type of supernatural powers. He finally realized with a breakdown that this person was not—"Who are you?! "

"It seems that you want to dance?" This person confronted Gide with the same double wooden warehouse, and suddenly flickered like a flower screen. When Gide was emotionally unstable due to the sudden change, he gave Gide a shot Mu Cang, "but—"

"Bang!"

"—I can only lead the dance!"

The moment the wooden warehouse was opened, "Odasaku" opposite Gide "transformed" into another stranger who also wore a mask.

No, such an iconic red mask and large-caliber double wooden bins... the person in front of him is——

—Red Hood!

The author has something to say:

*cue for a moment we all know those few...cough.

Hush—you just need to know that the beautiful country is leading.

*Changed dialogue from the original novel: this line of Gide's initial speech followed by Jaybird's two lines of reply.

Good night~
