The weather forecast predicted a high probability of rain. By the time Mizuno and Lin Sanjiu finished their meal and left, it was drizzling between the sky and the ground.
"Bang."
Mizuno held up the umbrella and hit his head. The raindrops were instantly broken into small splashes.
The pure black umbrella was a cheap gift during the supermarket's previous event. Taking advantage of the discount, Mai Sada made a good profit and brought back a lot of gifts.
Haibu Sha stood next to Mizuno's shoulder. She was a head shorter than Mizuno, so the height of Mizuno's umbrella was just right for her.
Because of the limited coverage of the umbrella, the two had to be very close to each other. There were many couples like this on the street. Taking a few steps across the river at the Condor Shrine, it was Saitama Prefecture's Kusaka City and Yamato City. This kind of magical experience of accidentally going from Tokyo to the "countryside." No wonder Adachi District was in an awkward position in District 23.
The pitter-patter of raindrops hit the umbrella and then fell to the ground in an arc, making a pitter-patter sound that sounded like a faint noise.
So close … Haibu lowered her head uneasily. Her eyes looked at the tip of her nose. She could feel the heat from Mizuno-kun's body next to her.
So warm.
She accidentally lost focus and walked slowly. Her body was a little wet from the rain.
"Hey, hey, hey." Leaning against Mizuno-kun to avoid the rain, Haibu let out a silly laugh.
People without umbrellas suffered. They ran in the rain like a drowned rat. Although no matter walking or running, as long as the distance was the same, the raindrops would be the same. It would not increase or decrease according to the speed. But running in the rain always gave people the illusion that they could outrun the rain.
Haibu's soles stepped on the road lightly, splashing water. She wished she could walk a little slower, a little slower. It would be best if she could stroll from Hanazawa to Ayase, then make a big circle before returning to the shop.
In the thin rain, the unlocking bar of Water Release LV1 appeared in front of Mizuno.
In the rainy weather, the Water Escape was finally unlocked.
Mizuno held the umbrella to block the rain, and his other hand slowly formed a seal at his side.
Ninjutsu is released using Chakra as the raw material. Hand seals are like ignition. Through this simple or complex "ritual", the caster mobilizes the Chakra in the body to release different Ninjutsu.
Mizuno didn't make any hand seals to release Water Release Ninjutsu, he just felt the attributes of the rain between heaven and earth, and then slowly manipulated the Chakra to simulate it. Under the control of his mind, the Chakra in his body simulated the attributes of water, sometimes it was as soft as water, sometimes it had the power to destroy everything.
The surrounding raindrops seemed to feel the call of Chakra, and in a situation where the naked eye can't see it, the raindrops slightly turned towards Mizuno Sora's palm, but because Mizuno Sora didn't really want to use Ninjutsu, the raindrops can only be slightly deflected at most.
Haibu Sha didn't notice Mizuno's movements, she was still immersed in the small world.
Chakra is not a godly technique created out of thin air. In the desert, a ninja who is proficient in Water Release can throw a small water ball. In an advantageous situation, the corresponding attribute of ninjutsu will erupt with terrifying power.
…
The fine rain washed the blood of Wanfu Temple. After Misa dealt with the last person, she stretched out her bone sword and cut off the blood on her cheek.
The sharp bone blade could cut through iron as if it were mud. Even if the blade was half a meter away, it would still send chills down one's spine. However, Misa's bone blade was so precise that it instantly sliced through the blood without harming a single hair on her face.
The bone sword is part of her body, and she can use it like an arm, just like the most skilled doctor holding a precise scalpel.
The maid in charge of daily affairs quickly took a black umbrella and hit Misa's head.
"Mesa-sama, thank you, this is a hot towel, please wipe your face."
Misa used the bone sword to lift the towel and wiped the rain off her hair.
"Anything else?"
She couldn't get rid of all the scumbags of the Pine Leaf Society.
The maid led Misa outside. "The main leaders of the Pine Leaf Society have been killed, but there are occasionally a few evil members who are hiding. There are many of them in the districts of Tokyo. Although the government has sent people to arrest them, there are still many of them on the loose."
After Misa left, the men in black came forward to collect the corpses. Some of them were loaded into cars and immediately sent to Wanfu Temple, while others were buried on the spot. There were Asians and Caucasians among them.
They dutifully restored every step of the day, from the place of death to the place of burial. They even divided the corpses into different control groups according to race.
The experimenters who could participate in the Bone Girl Project were all elites. No matter who they were dealing with, they displayed the cautious attitude of a lab rat experiment for the first time. Even the handling of the corpses was full of a sense of ritual.
There are still members of the Pine Leaf Society hiding in Tokyo?
Humans must have a goal to continue living. Killing the Pine Leaf Society, killing every member of the Pine Leaf Society, was the goal that Misa had become obsessed with. She seemed to have really become a legendary ghost, crazily hating the evildoers when they were 'alive'.
Noticing the change in Misa's expression, the maid continued without changing her expression. "But don't worry, Mesa-sama. Our people are operating everywhere in Tokyo, and we won't let go of any evildoers. However, considering that although the main branch of the Pine Leaf Society has been destroyed, the remaining members might take the risk and do anti-social things with weapons in their hands. There might be casualties among the government personnel and innocent citizens, so the progress will be slightly slower."
After the maid finished speaking, she glanced at Misa and quickly looked into the distance, as if she had not said anything.
However, in the hearts of the maid and the distant eavesdroppers, the countdown had already begun.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
"I'm in too." Misa retracted the bone spikes on her body. "I want to kill them with my own hands."
Misa's voice was loud and clear. The Chakra that she had obtained from Mizuno slowly flowed within her body.
"This …" The maid muttered to herself, as if she had not expected Misa to make such a request. "I'll need to ask the higher-ups."
"Okay." Misa nodded.
She suddenly sensed something and looked into the distance in the rain.
Faintly, Misa sensed the presence of a 'kindred', but this presence disappeared after a while.
It wasn't the presence of the Bone Lady. Were there other demons in Tokyo?
Did she even need to ask for permission to join the government? The government was more than happy to have Misa as one of their own. Every word that the maid said was within the calculations of someone with ulterior motives.
Hearing Misa's request, everyone in the analysis room was all smiles as they celebrated.
"The prediction this time was very accurate. The target has indeed made a request."
"It's only four seconds. Damn it, I thought it would take five seconds."
"That was the three seconds that Gao Sha bet, right?
Gao Sha, I'll be counting on you to pay for tonight's dinner. "
Misa's request to cooperate with the government was an important breakthrough. There was already an opportunity for cooperation. Through cooperation, they would slowly deepen their understanding, and from there, learn the secrets …
