Tokyo: Rabbit Police and Her Evil Partner

Chapter 347 Humanity’s Natural Enemy

The name Master Hui Sikong has its origin.

"Four Voids" refers to the four states of meditation in Buddhism: "the state of infinite space, the state of infinite consciousness, the state of nothingness, and the state of neither thought nor non-thought." "Hui" represents wisdom, meaning that the monk uses wisdom to realize the four states of emptiness. The last "Shangren" is a respectful title for monks with noble virtues and extraordinary wisdom.

These four states of concentration are progressive in sequence. They are the four goals of practice to get rid of worldly desires and all distracting thoughts. It is said that those who successfully practice the four formless concentrations will be reborn in the four formless heavens after death.

Although Master Hui Sikong gave himself this title, his realm was far from reaching the top of the four realms.

To be honest, this kind of behavior is actually a bit childish, just like Luffy who keeps saying "I will be the Pirate King" every day but won't change his name to Monkey D. Pirate King... Everyone knows that face is earned by oneself, not given by others.

But then again, monks cannot change their Buddhist names at will. They have to take whatever the abbot of their ordination says. If they accidentally take a Buddhist name like "abstinence from sex" or "purification of body", they will have to go around with this name for the rest of their lives.

Everyone has been young and frivolous. Choosing a Dharma name is just like registering a game ID. If you want to change it later, you can’t buy a name change ticket.

Master Hui Sikong has his own set of criteria for judging these four realms. There are a thousand kinds of Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand readers. Similarly, there are a thousand kinds of scriptures in the eyes of a thousand monks. He practices at his own pace, and sooner or later he will be able to achieve perfection, which is the same as the chief designer's idea.

The hardships he had experienced were countless, and slapping each other was just a piece of cake for him.

I thought Watanabe Shun was like those ignorant mortals who would surrender after two hits, but I didn't expect him to hold on until the third hit, even ignoring the risk of being beaten to death, and stood up again.

Master Hui Sikong admired him very much.

For a moment, the idea of ​​accepting a disciple came to Master Hui Sikong's mind.

There are not many people like Watanabe Shun who can transcend the terror of life and death, even rarer than the giant pandas in the zoo. If Watanabe Shun also becomes a monk and follows his footsteps to practice hard, he may have a chance to become a monk in the future.

But this thought only stayed in his mind for a second.

The next second, Watanabe Shun slapped him in the face.

He could see that Watanabe Shun had tried his best, but the force that landed on his face was not as strong as a slap in the face.

Master Hui Sikong raised his arm, and out of respect for the enlightened, he asked Watanabe Shun if he had any last words. The latter wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said something cruel:
"What's so great about relying on your body to bully others? Don't get complacent too soon. My boss is definitely better than you!"

Master Hui Sikong did not ask who the "boss" he was talking about was, as he had long since given up on worldly desires for victory or defeat. Monks do not kill, and they are compassionate and save all living beings. He held back his strength in the last slap, knocking Watanabe Shun unconscious, thus saving his life.

The arbitrator waved his hand and counted down, and after ten seconds, the bet was over.

Yuan Yuzi immediately got into the retractable belt and performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on Watanabe. The side effects of adrenaline are quite serious. If he can't survive this, he might suffer a sudden cardiac arrest and die.

The TV screen lit up with the image of a lucky cat, which was waving a fan rapidly in its hand. Its face showed a joyful expression, and it announced loudly:

"The result of the second gambling game tonight has been revealed! Now I will officially announce it. The winner is..."

The lucky cat drew out its tone, just like the host of a prize-winning guessing show, deliberately whetting the audience's appetite.

Ye Xingqi stood up early and straightened his collar complacently; Senmu Yalan held the broken pieces of the milk can, intending to make an extreme one-for-one exchange.

At this moment, a sharp noise suddenly came from the radio speakers. On the screen, the lucky cat suddenly turned around, with its back to the screen, and its body began to shake continuously.

Then, a vague electronic voice sounded: "So you are hiding here..."

The lucky cat immediately turned around and said to the camera: "It's an emergency. I will temporarily leave the game and someone else will host it."

As soon as the words fell, the small televisions in the temple went out, and the giant screen flickered for a moment, with large patches of snow and noise appearing.

Senmu Yalan was stunned. She turned her head and looked at Ye Xingqi, who also looked surprised.

When this unexpected situation occurred, Master Hui Sikong left the scene early and went to the control room to check.

At the same time, several arbitrators came over and asked Night Walker 7 how he planned to collect the chips - to put it bluntly, whether he wanted to die or live.

Ye Xingqi deliberately showed an embarrassed expression and glanced at Sen Mu Yalan. He said with a wicked smile: "Why don't you beg me... If I'm in a good mood, I might spare your life..."

Before she finished her words, Senmu Yalan suddenly jumped up, pulled out the porcelain shard, aimed it at Ye Xingqi's neck, and was about to stab him, but was grabbed by the arms by the two arbitrators on the left and right and pressed to the ground.

Fujiwara Yu originally wanted to help, but he stopped halfway. The fighting power of the cult members was not on the same level as the arbitrators. Just as the lucky cat had said when recruiting, they only wanted the elites among the elites and would never recruit small fish. If he went to help, he would only be beaten.

How to do?
What should you do if you encounter this situation?

He turned to look at Gen Yuzi, who was leaning against Watanabe Shun's chest. After hearing the faint heartbeat, he just breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and saw Sister Yalan being pinned down. He quickly raised his rifle to help.

"I just wanted to spare your life, but you actually want to kill me. I can't let you go!"

Ye Xingqi was very upset. In fact, he was thinking that the iceberg beauty was very suitable to be a silent maid. If Sen Mu Yalan was obedient enough, he could make use of her...

The two arbitrators took out their pistols and quickly loaded them. One of them pointed the gun at Yuan Yuzi, and the other pointed the gun at Morimu Yalan's head. They would pull the trigger as soon as Ye Xingqi gave the order.

Ye Xingqi raised his hand. He originally thought that Sen Mu Ya Lan was interesting, but now he was tired of playing with her. A toy that is tired of playing with will only make people bored. He was about to wave his hand and let the arbitrator to execute him when the miniature earphone in his ear suddenly rang.

Night Walker Seven was stunned for a second. He quickly signaled the arbitrator not to shoot. Then he turned his head away, muttered in a low voice, confirmed several times with the other end of the headset, and finally said in a complicated tone:

"Is that so...I understand."

"No, no, no, you are too polite..."

"It's not a matter of borrowing. What's mine is yours..."

"Okay, see you later."

He turned around, approached the arbitrator, and whispered a few words. Several arbitrators nodded, without saying much, and grabbed Moriki Yalan on the left and right, dragging her away by force. Yuan Yuzi hurriedly followed, loudly asking them where they were taking Sister Yalan. The arbitrator did not answer, and asked the medical staff to carry away Watanabe Shun. As a last resort, Yuan Yuzi planned to use force to protect Sister Yalan and Senior Watanabe.

Seeing this, Ye Xingqi signaled her to stay calm. He would not do anything bad to Moriki Yalan and Watanabe Shun for the time being. Instead, he would provide Watanabe Shun with emergency treatment.

Yuan Yuzi didn't believe that this frivolous man could have any good intentions. She continued to interrogate Night Walker 7 about his purpose with a rifle in her hand. Her tone and expression were just like Hello Kitty holding a submachine gun.

Ye Xingqi didn't intend to keep the audience in suspense. He looked around and asked everyone loudly if there were any participants who wanted to take part in the trial. Naturally, no one responded. Only the fat man who had scored 5 points raised his hand and asked how to spend the points.

"Participants who have not participated in the trial cannot use points. Even if you cheat and get points, it is useless. If you want to leave here, you can only participate in the trial. There is no point in wasting time!"

At this point, Night Walker Seven changed the subject: "But then again, it is indeed too demanding to suddenly ask a group of mortals who are obsessed with material desires to surpass themselves... Becoming the pinnacle of humanity is too illusory, right?"

The participants looked at each other, not knowing what he was talking about, and no one spoke.

Ye Xingqi put his hands behind his back, paced back and forth under Yuan Yuzi's gun, raised a finger, raised his head and said: "What kind of person can be called the strongest, most excellent, and most perfect new human being?"

"Is it intelligence? PhDs at research institutes are extremely intelligent and have a very high social status, but they still have to obey politicians and are limited by funding... From this point of view, intelligence doesn't seem to allow people to stand at the top of the pyramid!"

"Is that financial power? Every country in the world has its richest man. They have resources that ordinary people can hardly imagine. But facing the state violence machine, they seem to be fat sheep that can be slaughtered at will. They can only keep transferring assets between countries... From this point of view, financial power cannot make people stand at the top of the pyramid."

"Could it be power? But is there any unrestrained power in this world? The world has not yet been unified. Power is always competing with each other, and there will always be stronger power born... From this point of view, power also cannot allow people to stand at the top of the pyramid."

"So, what is the decisive factor in standing at the top of humanity?"

"Let me give you an analogy. Sheep eat grass, and wolves eat sheep. The ecological niche of the food chain is absolute. From this, what animal is the natural enemy of the wolf? Isn't it a bit difficult to answer? Even a tiger is afraid of a pack of wolves."

"Is there a certain kind of animal that other animals will instinctively be on guard against when they encounter it? No matter how fierce a predator is, when it encounters this kind of animal, it will not dare to attack rashly, but will instead carefully test the prey..."

"Yes, it's a person."

“What are the natural enemies of mankind?”

“Nature is the predator above humans.”

"Speaking of this, I believe you all understand, right? The decisive factor to stand at the top of the human race is instinct!"

"As long as you see it, you will feel fear, anxiety, excitement... Make people around you feel the pressure from instinct. As long as you pass countless trials, you can become the "natural enemy of mankind"!"

"Among countless 'predators', only one person reached the top!"

Night Walker 7 stopped and said solemnly: "That is the chief designer of Cat Island! The strongest carbon-based creature in history! Whether it is physical or mental, it is the most perfect of perfection!"

"Next, you will have the honor of seeing the 'strongest' take action. This will be the honor of your lifetime and will definitely completely change your view of the world—"

Night Walker became more and more excited as he spoke. He waved his hand and said loudly:

"——Yes! Someone challenged the Chief Designer! And the Chief Designer agreed to his challenge invitation, which is enough to prove that the Chief Designer believes that this person is qualified to challenge!"

"Gentlemen, you are about to witness the most exciting duel of the century!"

He walked out of the Temple of the Seven Sins quickly, and the red curtain slowly opened. On both sides of the long and narrow corridor were the doors of the trial fields. A group of arbitrators followed closely behind him and walked straight to the door at the end.

Gen Yuzi hesitated for a moment, but because she was worried about Sister Yalan and Senior Watanabe, she followed them; Fujiwara Yu stood there in a daze, and when he realized that he was the only one around, he came to his senses and hurriedly chased after them.

Everyone filed in and walked into the door at the end of the corridor.

The other participants remained where they were. They looked at each other in bewilderment. They were not aroused by Night Walker's words. Instead, they thought, "Wow, this guy is too immature", "Sure enough, he doesn't sound very old", "The strongest human being, it's so embarrassing to hear that"...

Ten minutes later, the small TV and the giant screen lit up again.

The screen was uniformly a large pure white square. In the center of the square stood a huge glass cabin that looked like a giant fish tank in an aquarium. There were portholes on the top and bottom of the cabin, and a circle of retractable belts were pulled around it. The arbitrators were guarding the surroundings with guns.

Gen Tamako, Fujiwara Hō and others stood outside the retractable belt. She opened her eyes wide and stared straight into the glass cabin.

There was only a table and two chairs inside, with two people sitting opposite each other.

The man sitting on the left is none other than Fushimi Shika.

His windbreaker was gone, and his trousers were neatly tied, with no bullet holes or bloodstains. His hair was messy, and he was wearing a sapphire shirt with sleeves that hugged his upper arms and two buttons open at the collar, looking like a Wall Street elite who had just finished a workout.

And the guy sitting opposite him is the legendary chief designer.

Fujiwara Yoshi's eyes widened, thinking that the guy was actually a woman.

She was wearing a high-necked crimson dress and had a princess-cut hairstyle. She looked dignified and noble. She was in her twenties but under thirty, but her age was hard to tell because she had the elegance of a rich lady and the demeanor of a wealthy family's mistress.

The most impressive thing is her eyes.

The tails of the eyes are upturned, large and bright, and the pupils are extremely clear, just like cat's eyes.

Yuan Yuzi was confused about the situation. She looked around and saw the arbitrator carrying a pile of round iron boxes and stuffing them in through the porthole. She didn't know what he was going to do.

Senmu Yalan regained her freedom, feeling extremely uneasy, and asked Ye Xingqi what he was going to do next. The latter explained, "Isn't it obvious enough? Of course, it's a bet."

He paused, then added with a smile: “By the way, the stakes are all your lives.”
