Chapter 120 Death Notice of the Control Bureau

10:55 am, MixC, fifth floor, cinema’s built-in men’s restroom.

As Bai Qiuwu walked inside, he turned his head to look at the door of each compartment.

Finally, her eyes stopped on the last cubicle - only this cubicle had its door closed.

So she lowered her eyes and looked at the door handle. After hesitating for half a second, she reached out to touch the cold handle, turned it to the right, and then pushed open the door of the compartment.

The door fell with a creaking sound, and a gap appeared in the door.

Looking through the crack in the door, what came into view was a young man sitting on the toilet lid with his head buried in his arms.

Bai Qiuwu stared at the man, was stunned for two seconds, then he breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead and chuckled twice.

Finally, he said unhappily, "Wake up, lazy pig. How can you sleep so soundly in the toilet?"

"Oh my god, sis?!"

When Ke Mingye heard the familiar voice, he raised his head instantly.

"Who else would it be?"

Bai Qiuwu met his gaze and tapped his head lightly with her fingers.

Ke Mingye was stunned for a long time, and stammered, "I just walked out, and I saw a group of people wearing black cloth, with masks on their faces, and..."

Bai Qiuwu sighed and interrupted him: "Ninja...right?"

"Yeah, how do you know?!"

"Everyone has encountered it, you are not the only one."

"I thought I was the only one who saw it. I was so scared that I thought I was haunted. Is there still ninjas in the 21st century?"

"Come on, don't you see what's going on outside?" Bai Qiuwu tilted his head, his tone quite helpless, "Anyway, we have to leave quickly, it's very dangerous here."

She paused and said, "Why don't you hurry up and get up? How long do you want me to stay in the men's room?"

Upon hearing this, Ke Mingye thought that this matter concerned his elder sister's innocence and there was no time to waste, so he crawled and rolled up from the toilet lid and asked as he walked out of the cubicle.

"What the hell is going on? Why is there such a thing as a ninja? I've been sending messages in the group, but none of you have replied."

"Who knows?"

"How are the others?"

"Zini and Ziling are all fine. Yongzhu... suffered some minor skin injuries, but they are not serious." Bai Qiuwu said, "Eldest brother and second brother are not found. However, they were not in Wanxiang City when the incident happened, so they should not be involved. It's not a big problem."

"Big brother and second brother are really something, they can't be found at such a critical moment."

"How dare you say that to them? Didn't you also hide in the toilet for ten minutes?"

"It was only ten minutes. You can't ask me to fight those ninjas. I was almost pissed at the time."

Bai Qiuwu was silent for a while: "Actually, it's right for you to hide here. When I looked for you just now, I was worried that something might happen to you."

"And you, where have you been?"

"I was trapped by those ninjas, but they weren't targeting me."

"What on earth are they here for?"

"You ask me, who should I ask?"

Bai Qiuwu paused as he thought about Ke Yongzhu's face lying in the pit. "Let's leave through the back door. Go quickly, or else the people from the Super Hero Association will come and we'll all be detained for questioning."

"Don't you need to cooperate with the police investigation?"

"No, we have to go find the eldest and second brothers first. We don't even know what's going on with them, so we don't have time to worry about these things." Bai Qiuwu shook his head, "Besides, there are so many people at the scene, they will tell the police the details."

"Okay."

As they spoke, Ke Mingye and Bai Qiuwu walked out of the men's restroom together.

As they walked, Bai Qiuwu suddenly remembered something, so he deliberately pulled his shoulder, bypassed one of the audience passages, and took a long way.

The illusionist she had defeated earlier died from excessive blood loss, and she didn't want Ke Mingye to see the body.

Is this too much?

Bai Qiuwu walked forward with his head down thinking, his eyes moving.

That night, in a ward of the Xinbei Hope Hospital in Xicheng District around Beijing.

Outside the window, you can see an elevated bridge, and behind it is a brightly lit city. A beam of fire rises to the sky, and colorful ripples bloom in the night sky. The city is setting off fireworks to celebrate the anniversary of the birth of the Beijing branch of the Super Hero Association.

There were two figures lying on the left and right beds respectively. Between them, there was a person sitting casually on a swivel chair, his back leaning against the wall, flipping through a book with his eyes lowered.

The ward was shrouded in silence, with only the ticking of the clock and the rustling of pages turning.

As the fireworks rose into the night sky, a roar mixed with faint human voices came from the distance.

As if being woken up, the figure on the bed on the right side trembled his eyelids and slowly opened his eyes.

"you're awake?"

Ke Yinzhi raised his eyes from the book and turned to look at him, saying, "The wound has been bandaged. Although your physical condition is there, it is best to lie down first. I do not recommend you to get up." He yawned, "I will take you home later... to avoid being targeted by the association's specialists."

"It's okay, just a minor injury."

Ke Xiaomo groaned twice, forced himself to sit up from the bed, and took a deep breath.

"Heh... there's a cut on my stomach, you call that a minor injury? If it's any later, it might not be able to be saved."

"I learned a breathing method of healing from the Ninja Sect. It won't take long for the wound to heal. It will just take some time for the bones to grow back, but it's not a big problem."

As Ke Xiaomo spoke, he closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and sat cross-legged on the bed.

"Okay, okay, Qigong Master."

Ke Yinzhi smiled slightly, lowered his eyes, and continued to flip through the book "Ulysses" in his hand.

"Is Akeno okay? Did he get caught up in this?"

"No. Qiu Wu found him in the restroom of the cinema and took him home."

"They're all home?"

"Ah."

"Yongzhu too?"

"He's sleeping at home, and no one will disturb him for now. Dad and Mom won't be home for two days. We need to get on the same page and go home later for a meeting."

Ke Xiaomo hesitated for a moment and asked, "So far, how many of my brothers and sisters know about this?"

"Let me think about it. Qiu Wu knows. Zi Ni and Zi Ling should know too. Zi Ling saw Yong Zhu transform back into human form with her own eyes, and Zi Ni is almost the same."

Ke Yinzhi paused and said, "It's better to say that if it weren't for Zi Ling, Yong Zhu might not have been able to change back."

"Zi Ling?"

"Yes, luckily Zi Ling was there, otherwise the situation would have been quite serious. I later learned that two members of the Round Table were dispatched. To be more exaggerated, even Zeus, the God of Transmigration, might have flown over from New York."

"Has the Round Table Society been mobilized?"

"Yes, if I don't take action and continue to drag it out, Yongzhu will most likely become their guinea pig and be locked up in the Round Table's laboratory for research. I'm afraid it will be more painful than death."

"so you……"

"I thought about whether I should kill him myself."

Ke Yinzhi lowered his eyes and turned the pages of the book, the sound accompanied by the rustling sound of his fingers stroking the pages.

Ke Xiaomo was stunned at first when he heard this, then the corner of his mouth twitched, he lowered his head, and a cold light flashed in his pupils.

"Are you serious?" he asked.

"At that time, Zini and Ziling were both in that mall. I didn't know where they were, and I couldn't guarantee that they would not be accidentally injured if the fight continued, so I had to make a quick judgment."

"You've found so many excuses. Did you really intend to kill Yong Zhu even for a second?"

"Yes, just tell me what you want to say. If you don't want you to know, I will keep it from you."

Ke Yinzhi spoke slowly, his eyes hidden by his drooping hair.

Ke Xiaomo was silent for a while, then asked in a low voice: "So, in the end, it was Ziling who made Yongzhu return to her original state?"

"Yes." Ke Yinzhi joked, "In fact, when I saw that scene, I was thinking, would it be easier for me to just take off my mask and walk up to it instead of going through all the trouble of fighting it?"

"You think too much. Yongzhu hates you." Ke Xiaomo said expressionlessly, "But if I were to stand in front of him, no matter how out of control he was, he would immediately turn from a dragon back into a human."

After the words fell, the two were silent for a while, and then laughed softly at the same time. "Come on... in terms of narcissism, you and I are really on par."

Ke Yinzhi shook his head and said with emotion.

"Let's not talk about this for now." Ke Xiaomo changed the subject, "In other words, Mingye is the only one who doesn't know that Yongzhu is the dragon of disaster?"

"That's right. According to Qiu Wu, the fool had been hiding in the toilet for ten minutes after the accident, not paying any attention to what was happening outside. What do you think?"

"That's good. I don't want him to be involved."

Upon hearing this, Ke Yinzhi put his elbows on the bedside table, supported his chin with his hands, and sighed softly.

"Mingye is one thing, but Xiaoni is not very tight-lipped. I'm a little worried that she will tell this to my parents."

Ke Xiaomo disagreed, "Xiao Ni may look ignorant, but in fact, she knows what she should do most of the time."

"Heh, we're all busy with our own things, how come you know them better than me?"

"if not?"

Ke Xiaomo paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "By the way, Sect Master..."

"I was killed by you, and there is no way to save me."

Ke Xiaomo was silent for a while, with a complicated look on his face.

"That's it..."

He turned his head to look at the sky full of fireworks and spoke softly.

"By the way, according to the investigation report given by the Super Hero Association, many of your fellow brothers are dead."

"Did you kill him?"

"Not all of them. I only killed some small fry. The others were dealt with by some superhuman vigilantes who passed by, such as Magical Girl Ash and Black Goku. And... that dice freak was here too."

Ke Xiaomo frowned: "Weird thing?"

"Yes, do you remember what it said to you?"

"It said... Black Goku, Blue Crow, and Ashes are all its friends. Maybe it will find someone to help me when I need it."

"That's right. Putting aside Black Goku, Magical Girl Ash might have been lured here by it to help. Hehe... I don't quite understand what it's doing."

"Maybe he wants to get close to me. What about Qing Ya?"

"It seems that Qing Ya is not in this city, otherwise the situation would become more complicated. It doesn't matter. Do you see the person on the left?"

As Ke Yinzhi spoke, he pointed at the figure wrapped in bandages in the next bed without even raising his head.

Ke Xiaomo turned his head to look at the man, and after a long pause he said, "Moshujia?"

"Yes, he promised me that he would stay by your side and be your right-hand man." Ke Yinzhi smiled, "You will be the 28th generation leader of the Ninja Clan next."

As he spoke, he handed a necklace to Ke Xiaomo, "This was found on the corpse of the sect leader. I think you mentioned to me before that every sect leader of a certain generation would wear a necklace made of ancient dragon teeth. It was a symbol of status."

Ke Xiaomo lowered her eyes and stared at the white necklace in her palm, which was as cold as a piece of ice.

"But I'm just a traitor."

"If you don't go back and take charge of the situation, and let the Ninja Clan fall into the hands of others, then one day in the future, when they make a comeback, something similar to this will happen again."

Hearing this, Ke Xiaomo was silent for a while, then slightly clasped his five fingers together and held the necklace in his palm.

"I see. I'll go back and try."

"Do you need me to go back to the Ninja Clan with you?"

"No, I can do it alone."

"That's right. Even the Sect Master couldn't stop you. The elite fighting force of the Ninja Sect was also depleted this time. No one can stop you when you return." Ke Yinzhi teased, "And you have a helper."

"Can he really help?"

"Don't be fooled by his appearance. He is actually quite strong. He barely took two of my attacks before falling down."

"Two moves?" Ke Xiaomo asked in surprise. "In the Super Hero Association, except for the people in the Round Table, no one else can withstand you."

"He said that he could use your Ninja Clan's forbidden technique, called Blood or something..."

"The Ink Dragon Technique and the Blood Ink Forbidden Technique? I've heard from the Sect Master that the Ink Dragon Technique forcibly creates a 'dragon-shaped' shadow heart, but each person's shadow heart is determined by his personality and experience. This forcibly created shadow heart is not his original shape, so it will fall apart at the first touch, and it is easy for the caster to lose himself." Ke Xiaomo paused, "As for the Blood Ink Forbidden Technique, it seems that you have to overdraw your lifespan to use it, so it has become a forbidden technique."

"No wonder..." Ke Yinzhi held his chin and sneered, "But it's not that serious. I don't even bother to care about him if he just lies on the ground."

Ke Xiaomo hesitated for a while and said, "Forget it... I will go back to Xi'an with Mo Xiejia in a few days."

"Okay, okay, that's it, Grand Master."

"How do you deal with the Control Bureau and the Association?"

"At the meeting, I pushed the entire incident onto your Ninja Clan, saying that there was an internal fight among your Ninja Clan, and one of the factions even released a dragon." Ke Yinzhi replied, "So, the existence of the Ninja Clan has been exposed to the Bureau of Control. Next, the Ninja Clan will most likely become the target of the Bureau of Control."

He paused and teased, "Are you, the next clan leader, ready to take over this mess?"

Upon hearing this, Ke Xiaomo sighed deeply: "Why does it sound like I just took office, and the sect is already in danger..."

As he spoke, he removed the densely packed bandages on his abdomen. Instead, he squeezed out a layer of shadow from his fingertips to wrap the hideous wound.

"It feels like you've become a lot stronger." Ke Yinzhi said.

"Since the beginning of the third year, I have been trying to comprehend the profound meaning of shadow arts and merge with the shadow heart under the guidance of the sect master." Ke Xiaomo lowered his eyes and removed the bandage on his arm. "I have tried for three years and failed once. But in the battle with the sect master today, I suddenly realized it."

"Really? That's quite lucky..."

Ke Yinzhi responded disapprovingly and slowly closed the book in his hand, "By the way, I have something else to talk to you about."

Ke Xiaomo turned her head and looked at his expression.

"Since we're leaving it to the end, is this a serious matter?"

"No, it's a small matter."

"What on earth is that?"

"Qiu Wu is the spiritual master Black Wukong."

Ke Yinzhi said this with a smile, tilting his head, waiting for Ke Xiaomo's reaction with interest.

Ke Xiaomo was stunned for two seconds, slowly opened his mouth and asked.

"Are you kidding me?"

"No, that's not funny." Ke Yinzhi had a deadpan expression. "By the way, the God-Spirit Black Goku, like the God-Spirit Zeus, is on the T0 list of the Control Bureau's execution list. But they determined that with the current combat power, no one in the Control Bureau can fight Zeus. So they put the plan to eliminate Black Goku at the top of the list."

Ke Xiaomo was shocked and lowered his head to slow down his thoughts.

First Qiu Wu was Black Wukong, and then the Control Bureau targeted her. Ke Yinzhi took it for granted and didn't consider his psychological tolerance threshold at all...

"So...what are you going to do?"

He swallowed a mouthful of water, his Adam's apple moving up and down, and after a long while he opened his mouth to ask.

"Good question. What else can we do? When that day comes, we two brothers will just join forces."

Ke Xiaomo was stunned: "You mean..."

"Yes, just the two of us, kill the other four S-level executors and fifteen A-level executors of the Control Bureau together. As long as the most elite troops of the Control Bureau are eliminated, they will naturally give up the action. It sounds simple, doesn't it?"

Ke Yinzhi yawned, lowered his head, and spoke casually while flipping through the pages of a book.

The tone was flat, as if he was chatting with the other person about daily matters.

Ke Xiaomo was silent for a moment and took a deep breath.

He said in a cold voice: "That's it, since they want to attack Qiu Wu, there is no reason for us to back down."

As he spoke, he removed the bandage on his arm and instead covered the wound with a shadow. Then he pulled down the sleeves of his hospital gown, lifted the quilt, got out of bed, and put on his slippers.

"Wow, you recovered faster than I thought." Ke Yinzhi raised his eyebrows and murmured, "I thought that with your injuries, you would not be able to get out of bed for a while... Is it due to your improved control over the shadows?"

"Almost." Ke Xiaomo did not comment. "I'll go change my clothes, then go home and have a meeting with them."

"We have to have a meeting. Let's go."

Ke Yinzhi closed the book, stood up from the swivel chair, and held the black leather book in his hand.

The two walked slowly out of the ward and into the shadows of the corridor.

　Asking for a monthly ticket!
