age is not a problem

The figure of that person was getting closer and closer, and when he completely appeared in sight...

"You..." Her eyes trembled slightly, and Qingmei was faintly angry, she clenched her fists unconsciously, "Tsk, don't you even want to show your original appearance, or...in your opinion, Am I, a dying person who has been sentenced to death by you, not even qualified to look at you?"

At this moment, Brenda, who appeared here, was dressed up as an adult and beautiful...or, in other words, as Airi Weiler.

"Disguised like this, are you deliberately trying to humiliate me... Brenda!"

Qingmei yelled out directly, the kind of anger that came from the chest, as if she was about to rush in front of the other party in the next moment, and ruthlessly tear the face that the other party was pretending at the moment!

At this time, Tsuna Kichi held Qingmei's shoulders, whispered "Calm down" in her ear, and then looked at Brenda who was standing not far away with Airi on her face:

"Can you tell me which side gave you the task of 'killing Airi Weiler', Ms. Brenda?"

Brenda seemed to look at Tsuna Ji for a while, and said coldly: "You will know, who is the person who wants Airi to disappear from this world... But, after I complete this task and kill After the death of Airi."

Just when Tsunaki was about to say something, Qingmei, who had finally withdrawn from the turbulent emotions just now with her strong self-control, shot to stop Gangkichi behind her, "Stand back, this matter needs to be done by myself solve."

Then, he took a step forward, with a bit of stubbornness and sarcasm in his calm eyes:

"He kept saying that he wanted to kill me... I really thought I could do it casually. Who do you think you are, Brenda. Over the years, I have experienced all kinds of cruel and even desperate situations But I don’t know how much, not everyone can kill a cockroach like me.”

"Then, let me test how hard your life is." While speaking, Brenda took out all the weapons he was carrying, and then threw them aside, "Your weapons should have all been removed before." Fall into the sea, then, to be fair, we'll fight with our bare hands."

Qingmei raised her chin slightly, "Since we can no longer communicate with each other with words, then...it is better to communicate with fists."

"Don't forget, who taught you your fighting skills." Brenda looked at Qingmei with an 'overwhelming' look, and put her body into position, "Every attack of yours, I I am very familiar with it, and I know exactly what your next move will be... The result of this exchange of fists, there is no doubt that it is your death."

"Oh, Brenda, it looks like you haven't watched Japanese anime... Generally, before the final battle, the villain boss will beep all over his mouth, and the louder the words, the worse the death will be in the end. ah!"

After the voice fell, Qingmei rushed over, jumped up, and kicked the opponent with a flying kick!

……

Tsuna looked at the two people who were fighting in full swing in front of them in horror.

This battle was not a joke. It could be seen that neither of them had any reservations. Every blow was carried out with the belief of killing the other party, and they struck at the other party's vital points mercilessly.

If possible, he really wanted to go forward and protect Qingmei behind him, let him solve all this and protect her well.

However, compared to this kind of selfish protection, he still understands and wants to fulfill her heart.This is her battle, a grievance that needs to be cut off by herself, and she will not want anyone to intervene.

Nicole, who was also watching the battle from the sidelines, suddenly said quietly: "Qingmei was taught by Brenda, so her fighting style is exactly the same as Brenda's, and the other way around, Brenda's fighting style is also the same as that of Brenda's." Kiyomi... no, to be precise, it's exactly the same as Airi from the past."

"You mean...?" Tsunade asked, turning her head.

"Don't you think it's very interesting, Brenda fights exactly like Airi, plus she's now disguised as Airi... It looks like Qingmei is fighting her past self. If Qingmei wants to survive, it means she must defeat her past self."

Listening to Nicole's words, Tsuna felt vaguely something different... He couldn't figure out his thoughts for a while, but he always felt that there was a bold guess about to come out.

Over there, Qingmei and Brenda have already died, but it is still difficult to distinguish between them.

If Qingmei was distracted by those sudden accidents on the cliff before, then at this moment, she will not be so easily defeated by "another self" who is fully concentrated.As Nicole said, Brenda is familiar with her, and she is also familiar with Brenda. She is fighting Brenda, and she is also fighting the former Airi.

However, this 14-year-old girl's body is indeed a big disadvantage, the muscles are not yet fully developed, and various physical indicators cannot be compared with the adult body.Soon, Qingmei's movements, which had been almost exhausted, became sluggish, and Brenda didn't miss this excellent opportunity, and made a decisive move...

With a crisp sound of bones, Brenda dislocated Qingmei's usual left arm!

The pain made Qingmei groan subconsciously, but it never disturbed her train of thought.After all, at such a time, as long as there is a moment of distraction, it will be his own defeat.

Knowing what it means to be left-handed but unable to use her left hand, Kiyomi immediately decided to put all her eggs in one basket.

He rushed directly towards Brenda!Unreasonably biting the blood vessel in Brenda's neck!

Brenda had already calculated that Qingmei would try to avoid using her immobile left hand in the next step and make a quick decision, but she was stunned when she felt the tingling pain in her neck... Then her body instinctively pushed Qingmei away .

Qingmei, who was suddenly pushed and fell into the sea of ​​flowers, was not in a hurry to stand up, but a smug smile rose from the corner of her mouth when she was lying down.

next second...

In front of him, Brenda, who was clutching her neck, turned pale, and suddenly collapsed stiffly.

"You..." Brenda, who was also lying on the ground, opened her eyes wide.

"Oh, that's right, I hid anesthetics in my teeth." After adjusting her body, Qingmei struggled to stand up, with a proud and provocative smile on her lips, "Although biting is not a very elegant way of fighting, But... who told me that Qingmei Asakawa is an underage child, children always have some willful privileges."

After saying these words, her breathing became a little short, and Qingmei, who had no strength, stood there relying on her willpower, but she looked down at Brenda with arrogance:

"You lost, Brenda..."

After a moment of silence, Brenda suddenly laughed out loud:

"That's...very good, the winner is Asakawa Kiyomi..."

Just when Kiyomi was confused about why Brenda said this suddenly——

"Be careful--!"

When Gangji, who had been watching from a distance, saw that scene, he could not help but ignite the flame of death energy and rushed over!

Brenda, who was lying on the ground, suddenly stood up, and launched her last desperate blow at Qingmei, who was struggling to stand up!

Just now, when lying on the ground, Brenda moved her fingers with difficulty, took out a small dagger hidden in it, and stabbed herself fiercely!Use excruciating pain to break the body's anesthesia.

"boom--!"

Gang Ji arrived in time, and the palm of the burning flame hit Brenda's heart directly!

It's just that because of the semi-finished retrograde bomb, he can't control his own power right now, and the flame released at this moment is much bigger than he expected, and the surrounding violet flowers are also burning.

Not wanting to kill Brenda directly like this, when Tsuna was about to stop...

"You—!" Tsuna looked at Brenda in shock.

Instead of fighting back, Brenda firmly held Gang Ji's arm, taking the initiative to intensify the blow to herself!A sure blow!

Just when Tsunaki's brain was roaring, he heard Brenda say something slowly to him in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Then, Brenda let go of Gangji's arm, leaned back a little bit, and placed herself in the burning flame.

"Brenda——!" Qingmei shouted in despair, wanting to rush forward, but her body couldn't exert any more strength, and just took a step, she crawled on the ground in embarrassment.

At this moment, she understood, understood everything... understood what that bastard Brenda wanted to do!Who allowed you to be so self-assertive, bastard!

"A villain, lonely and desolate; killed in the flames, there is no one left."

Burning in the flames with the sea of ​​violets around her, Brenda murmured softly the last line of this premonition ballad she had written herself...the last line for herself.

Then, looking at Qingmei not far away with a smile, she said her last words:

"Goodbye, my little Viola..."

At this time, Nicole on the side put down the miniature snapper that had just taken a few necessary photos, and said word by word in a formulaic voice:

"Airi Weiler was killed by Vongola X during the mission to capture Vengola X, and his death was confirmed."

After speaking mechanically, Nicole turned away from looking at Qingmei's silent tears, and said to Tsuna, "Okay, quickly take her to the helicopter, we must leave here immediately."

With a complete understanding in his heart, Gang Ji took a deep breath and nodded, "...Okay."

……

In the dark, the helicopter flew towards the main island of the Lipari Islands.

In the cabin—

There was silence, no one spoke, Gang Ji was just sitting in the back seat, hugging Qing Mei who hadn't shaken off the emotion of winning the lottery just now, and wanted to give her the support he could give her.

After a long while, Gangji finally broke the silence first: "The other people in the death notice ballad all died in their fields of expertise, but the two sentences belonging to me and Qingmei are our own safety hazards. Others are on the contrary... because Brenda didn't intend to take my life and Qingmei's life at all."

Nicole, who was driving the helicopter in front, didn't look back, but responded indifferently: "Ah, that's right... When Brenda pushed Qingmei off the cliff, she was already ready to jump down to save her, Brenda It's just to see if you have the ability and determination to protect her, Pengo Lie."

"Really..." Gangji smiled wryly.

He couldn't help but think of the last words Brenda said to him just now - "Please take care of her, please, you are the second person to feel her tenderness..."

"The angle I chose just now is very good. The few photos I snapped are enough to show that 'Airie Weiler' was killed by King Vongola X, and the face of King Vengola X was not exposed." Nicole freed up one hand, took out Kiyomi's keychain engraved with 'AIRI' and shook it, "And this, the 'relic' belonging to Airi to testify... Ah, by the way, This key chain was dropped from you when you flew over the cliff to save Qingmei, and was picked up by Brenda. After that, Brenda gave this to me as a future SISMI Reporting one of the evidences of Airi's death..."

"... Since when did you and her plan this?" Qingmei, who had been silent and lifeless all this time, suddenly asked.

After Nicole glanced at Qingmei, he also chuckled with admiration: "I also found Brenda after you fell off the cliff, and I learned about all this from her and cooperated with her to complete the task." This game... But if she is concerned, she probably started planning all of this a long time ago."

[One month ago——

"So, the last time you met her in Tokyo, did she say anything to you?"

In a corner of the dark and chaotic bar, Brenda, disguised as a passerby, was shaking the cocktail in her glass while asking Nicole who was sitting beside her.

"That guy... probably a cos junior high school student addicted to cos." Nicole shook his head, but he still repeated Qingmei's original words, "She said...whether Comsubin, SISMI, black hand Whether it is the party or various political parties, she is not interested in being a tool for power games among all parties. It is not easy for her to live hard now, and she cannot even meet her safety needs. Don't talk to her about the need for self-actualization. Rather than being used by various forces, she still wants to eat a plate of spaghetti in peace."

In fact, Nicole was somewhat surprised that Brenda found him.Brenda's current situation is logically quite delicate, and she now seems to be a thorn in the side of the heads of government.And now it is quite bold to find him, a senior executive of SISMI, to talk about a private cooperation.

However, the terms of cooperation she offered were indeed very attractive.

"Really...that's what she said..." Brenda murmured meaningfully, and then she became more serious: "Then, let's follow the cooperation we just discussed. You are responsible for helping me Lure Airi to the Lipari Islands, and I will help you capture Vongola X, and I will also give you a big gift."

"I'll talk about big gifts later...but why the Lipari Islands?" Nicole asked puzzled.

"Because Vengley X is going there to find something."

"How do you know this?"

"Within the Vengley family, between the elders and the young Vengley X... it's not really harmony."

"You guy, are you cooperating with Pengel's veterans?"

"Oh, that's right."

……

This evening, in the woods—

"What are you doing... These are different from what we agreed."

Unafraid of Nicole's pistol on the back of her head, Brenda leisurely played with the keychain engraved with 'AIRI', "What the hell do I want...I, I want to die alone. "

"Who? Who do you want dead?"

Brenda turned around, smiled and said, "Airie Werle."

"What do you mean?" Nicole intuited that there were more things in it.

Looking at the gradually sinking sunset in the sky, Brenda calmly told all her plans:

"I won't live long... Those people in the government cabinet will not allow me to live in the world. After all, I know too many secrets. This is the so-called dead dog cooking. Since the time of death is approaching, why don't you let me live?" Use my last value to fulfill the wish of the person I love... I will help her get rid of the entanglement of various forces and let her be completely free. Let Airi Weierle disappear from this world, leaving only Asakawa Kiyomi is an ordinary Japanese junior high school student."

"Today, the four people who died before were all people who were intolerable by those politicians but could not be sanctioned by the laws of the world. As a spy of those politicians, I naturally know many of them. Intelligence, I used those secrets as a threat to gather those people on this island, and then eliminated them one by one. This is not only the completion of the tasks assigned to me by those politicians, but also my deterrent to them. From then on, For them, 'Brenda' is a time bomb that they want to get rid of but they can't find whereabouts, because... tonight, I will die as 'Airie Weiler'."

"And, Nicole, do you like that big present I gave you?"

Nicole couldn't help laughing out loud: "You really...have considered everything for her."

Yes, if this plan is to be completed, his full cooperation is absolutely indispensable, especially in the end, he must be the witness who witnessed the death of "Airi Werle" to reassure SISMI.

Brenda was probably worried that just because Qingmei had saved him once in the past was not enough for him to complete this big lie, so she planned to make him shoot and kill the third deceased by accident.

Because that person was the one who shot and killed his father but was still at large.He gave up the invitation of his tutor for academic research and joined SISMI for this reason.

And now, Brenda helped him get his revenge... as a bargaining chip for him to cooperate to the end.

Looking at the last sunset that belonged to her in the sky, Brenda finally looked away, "You mean, when she was 'Kyomi Asakawa'... she was very happy, right?"

After being taken aback for a while, Nicole still nodded with a light smile, "Ah."

"Is that so... that's good."]

Quietly listening to Nicole's narration, Qingmei didn't shed a single tear, maybe it was because she was drained, maybe it was because that person didn't want to see her cry even in that world... Then, she didn't cry.

Thinking back to the scenes they had together, Qingmei found that...she had never been able to understand Brenda in time.

Back then, on the evening when they agreed to date, at the moment they kissed, she actually felt her face wet, as if a drop of water had fallen on her cheek.Actually, it was Brenda's tears... Brenda knew very well that you belonged to each other's last moments, and the next day, it was forever parting, but she... didn't understand anything, didn't know anything ...

"Goodbye, my little viola..."

The last words left to her, fortunately... She caught up and didn't have time to feel it again...

At the fingertips, a piece of violet petals slipped, which I accidentally touched in the sea of ​​flowers just now...

Viola's flower language - eternal beauty and love.
