Casablanca dedicated to Mr. Nakahara

The sky fortress with a total weight of nearly 2000 tons will fall from a height of more than [-] meters. Once the combined plan is achieved, the entire Yokohama will be reduced to a dead city.

The message sent through the miniature headset made Qianli's face darken, and he immediately left the mansion and got into the black car.

There is no need to arrange for Oda Shinichi and others to evacuate Yokohama. If the fall of the 'white whale' cannot be prevented, everything including the port mafia will cease to exist.

And he will never allow this assumption to become a reality.

According to Mori Ogai, Akutagawa Ryunosuke and Nakajima Atsushi have arrived inside the white whale, and the armed detective agency is directing the operation by Osamu Dazai.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Qianli's tense nerves relaxed a little when he heard the name.He is well aware of Dazai Osamu's ability. With his extraordinary mind, every task he takes over is considered exhaustive. The "great achievements" he has established in the port mafia are enough to make any person in the inner world shudder.

"What exactly are they going to do? Take down the control center?" Qianli fastened his seat belt and started the car.Through the transmission of wireless signals, Kiyoshi's boy's voice was transmitted to Mori Ogai's office.

The man sitting in front of the round table folded his hands, and the pure white gloves were noble and elegant.Even at a critical juncture, the powerful mafia leader still had a smile on his face, and there was no panic in his expression.

"As you said, capturing the control center is the most efficient way. Most of the members of the group have already been evacuated by transport plane, and the only ones left there are the owner of 'Moby Dick' and their leader, Mister."

'The compatibility between Akutagawa and Renhu is too bad. ' Qianli said in a deep voice.

Mori Ogai raised his eyebrows, picked up the black tea beside him and took a sip. "I discussed this with Dazai-kun—"

"You're betting." Qianli interrupted the other party loudly, he controlled the steering wheel with one hand, and at the same time sent a concise email to Takahashi and Hikari.

"In case the purpose of the combination is achieved, no more than ten people will survive this disaster."

'Did you forget that I still have an ace in my hand?Even if Akutagawa-kun fails, it won't have any impact on the situation. '

"No."

'reason? '

"Mr. Zhongyuan's turning on the filth can indeed make the white whale fall into the sea in advance, but it is less than 24 hours since the last overloaded battle. The thing is nearly [-] tons, and the risk of simply using gravity to manipulate it is too high."

As soon as the voice fell, Takahashi and Hikari's reply appeared at the top of the phone screen.

[It is calculated that the white whale will crash in 31 minutes and 15 seconds, location: downtown. ]

The black car galloped along the wide coastal avenue, completely ignoring the speed limit signs on the roadside.Step on the accelerator for a thousand miles, and the dynamic noise generated during the driving of the vehicle is drilled into the miniature headset.

"Let me go."

'...'

"I am the most suitable candidate."

Qianli narrowed his eyes slightly, and a battle plan that seemed unimaginable to others took shape in his mind instantly. "With Mr. Zhongyuan's gravity manipulation, the success rate is 100%."

'Mr. Qianli——'

"What are you still hesitating about? Lin Taro." Qianli looked ahead intently, and his previously indifferent tone sounded a bit aggressive now. "Send other subordinates to drive the helicopter to forcibly hit the white whale. The probability of the pilot's death is more than [-]%. I will carry out this mission with zero damage."

'...Have you thought it through? '

"Ah, it's just broken once." Qianli turned on the timer that came with the phone, and there were 26 minutes and 47 seconds left. "Before that, you need to answer me a question, why did Yumeno Hisaku say the words 'longing, longing' to me."

——The technique of changing the subject is still so bad.

Mori Ogai pressed the center of his eyebrows with a headache, Qianli's ability combined with Nakahara Chuya's gravity manipulation is theoretically the most ideal solution at present.The reason why he is hesitant is because the former's ability has certain limitations, and the so-called "broken once" is not as simple as the literal meaning.

Mori Ogai sighed faintly, and said softly: "He has read your mission report, all of it."

The sharp whistle rang through the entire office, and the two present covered their ears with stiff expressions.

"What the hell are you thinking?!" Chisato raised his voice in a rare way, not forgetting to throw the assembly address to Mori Ogai while being angry.

'Yumeno-kun has a... sense of identification with you. '

The male voice in the headset omitted the most critical part, but Qianli still understood what the other party wanted to express.

'An extremely unstable kid like him needs a clear signpost, and you never let me down. '

"Don't use that set of 'diamond theory' to perfuse me, don't you worry that we can learn from Dazai-senpai?" Chisato's tone was not lacking in sarcasm. Not long after he was promoted to a cadre, he defected directly.

'It's a little different, the feeling he has for you is longing.I have read the report submitted by Takahashi-kun, and your arrangement is very reasonable. '

"Knowing that I won't refuse you..." His hands gripping the steering wheel tightened slightly, and Qianli gritted his teeth and said, "Please discuss it with the person next time before doing something like this. He tried to break into my bedroom this morning."

'Thousands of miles—'

"Shut up, Hayashi Taro, ground your feet for two, no, three months."

'Thousands of miles...'

"I don't want to hear your sophistry."

'Cough—that's right, Mr. Qianli. Mori Ogai cleared his throat, a faint smile flashed in his eyes. "I agree to your proposal, in fact... Mr. Zhongye is in my office now."

Qianli: "..."

The fast-moving black car suddenly deviated from the current lane and slammed into the one-meter-high guardrail on the side of the road.Accompanied by a violent noise, the protective facilities made of reinforced concrete protruded by nearly 20 centimeters.

After the shock, the car stopped.

Qianli, who was sitting in the driver's seat, was caught in the middle by the airbag and the seat back. The seat belt was tightly strangled, and he couldn't move.Fortunately, the moment he lost control of the steering wheel, he stepped on the brakes in time, and his body spontaneously used the supernatural power a second before the impact.

'Mr. Qianli? ! ''Thousands of miles——'

"...I'm fine." He straightened the mask that was tilted to the side of his head, and then unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car.

The car coming from behind noticed that there was a car accident here, and the driver was about to slow down.As a result, when he looked up, he saw a red and black Prajna ghost face, so the action of stepping on the brakes became a stepping on the accelerator.

Qianli: ...

'Mr. Qianli? '

"I'm here, the tire got a nail. It's only five kilometers away from the assembly point. Don't worry, I'll be there as soon as possible."

……nail?

Mori Ogai pressed his fist to his lips, and he blinked when his eyes touched Nakahara Nakaya at the side.

Unexpectedly, no, I really believed it, Chuya-kun.

"Boss, I'm going to join Qianli now." Zhongyuan Zhongya bowed his head and asked for instructions.

Mori Ogai smiled: "Go, I look forward to your good news."

The door of the office closed slowly, and the slight sound was like a tacit signal.

"Mr. Qianli, Nail?"

'...'

Qianli directly interrupted the call with Mori Ogai, and he went around to the other side to check the damage to the car.

The two headlights were completely shattered, leaving a puddle of powder like snowflakes on the ground.The front window glass was cracked like a spider web, and a hole the size of a thumb was broken in the middle.However, these are nothing, the most tragic thing is the front of the car-the whole is recessed by two-thirds.The engine has stopped working, and the expensive alloy material has been reduced to a pile of scrap iron in a blink of an eye.

Qianli flew over the one-meter-high protective fence, and when he landed, his long black coat bulged against the wind.While continuing towards the original route, he dialed Takahashi and Hikari with the mobile phone that survived.

The prompt sounded twice and was picked up.

"it's me."

"I'm on the coastal road now, about 2.3 kilometers from the exit. There is a small problem with the car, you send someone to tow it away."

"Well, as soon as possible."

Sixteen minutes and 47 seconds until the crash of the white whale.

***

Yokohama Port No. 5 Pier is only a [-]-minute drive from the Port Mafia Headquarters Building.Zhongyuan Zhong, who arrived at the meeting place ahead of schedule, also avoided a group of idlers and got into a dark alley not far away, next to the warehouse under the name of the organization.

The last time I was here was for the summer auction...

Mr. Hat, who stepped into the shadows, took out a pack of unopened cigarettes from his coat pocket, tore off the outer wrapping and lit one skillfully for himself. The scarlet flame was particularly eye-catching in the dimly lit alley.

Rintaro...

Zhong Yuanzhong also took a sip with the white filter in his mouth, and he had the impression that the man rarely showed his emotions.He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dim and inexplicable light flashed in the clear blue eyes under the brim of his hat.

"Mr. Zhongyuan."

A familiar voice came from behind, and Nakahara Zhongya followed the prestige.The black clothes, the hood, and the mask that never leaves the body are thousands of miles away.His excellent eyesight allowed him to easily judge that there was no sign of injury on the young man. It seemed that the car accident was just an accident.

"Coming?" Zhong Yuanzhong also stubbed out his cigarette. "What do you need me to do?"

Qianli considered his sentence, and said softly: "About my ability——"

"Wait." Zhongyuan Zhong also looked cold and interrupted him. "Is it okay?"

Qianli was startled, and immediately understood the other party's intention.

The only person in the organization who knows about his abilities is Mori Ogai, and all information about the assassin must be destroyed.In order to make those people who were manipulated by the "brain hell" lose their mobility, he used supernatural powers on the streets of Yokohama. After the chaos ended, all the pictures captured by the monitoring equipment turned into black and white snowflakes.

Qianli raised his head slightly, his eyes met, and then crashed into a deep and distant cobalt blue.

——The land of precious stones.

In a trance, he seemed to hear his own voice, pretending to be calm but still revealing the inner tension.

——It’s called the Land of Gems.
