Chapter 103 Mirror World, Double Auction
Chapter 103 Mirror World, Double Auction (asking for monthly ticket)
July 17, Tokyo, 5 a.m. Japan time, an empty coastal highway.
Black Pupa sat on a public bench, his arms resting on the back of the chair, his head lowered, and his occasional snoring was muffled by the restraints wrapped around his cheeks.
Early this morning, he was squatting here again.
The cold sea breeze blew, causing the restraints on his body to open and close slightly like scales.
After sleeping for a while, he shook his head and stood up from the public bench with his shoulders hugged, like a homeless person sleeping on the street.
"I'd rather die……"
Speaking of the first auspicious words in the morning, he yawned, and while the nine members of the auction's core bodyguard team had not yet arrived at the scene, he pulled his body upwards with the help of the restraints and sneaked into the villa.
As always, Black Pupa leaned against the railing on the second floor, still in the discolored form of his restraints, and fell into a deep sleep.
Not long after, Blue Arc arrived as expected with his earth-shaking roar.
As if to refute what Ke Qirui had teased him about yesterday, saying that he was "the fastest but arrived the slowest", he arrived the fastest today.
The black pupa's head, which was leaning against the railing, shook slightly and hit the gap in the railing.
"Damn it, brother! Can't you let me sleep properly? It's a good thing the Chinese people haven't complained about you disturbing the public..."
He came to his senses, muttered to himself, took out his cell phone, wrapped it with a restraint, and then relied on the restraint's senses to see the contents of the screen clearly, and used the restraint to type and send.
[Black Pupa: Good morning, Mr. Blue Arc.]
[Blue Arc: Just how bad is your taste? You enjoy spying on others so much?]
[Black Pupa: After all, I have to ensure your safety. The safety of my partners has always been my top priority.]
[Blue Arc: Don't get caught. This isn't my territory. I can't save you.]
[Black Pupa: Mr. Blue Arc has a real sense of humor. He makes it sound like you would save me if I were in China.]
[Blue Arc: What is your relationship with Ke Zinan and Ke Qirui?]
[Black Pupa: Partnership. I will ensure that both of them survive this auction, just like you. But don't be jealous. Our partnership is my top priority.]
He thought to himself, "Without you, how am I supposed to start the main storyline related to Rainbow Wing? Is it all up to Dad?"
[Blue Arc: Let me ask you a question. Who is that girl named Conan? I think she's weird.]
[Black Pupa: It's not a hero's job to pry into a woman's privacy. You'll find out sooner or later.]
The text message exchange between the two ended here, and figures gradually walked in from outside the villa and gathered in the magnificent first-floor hall.
Looking down from the second floor, the crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling divides the nine figures into two groups:
Blue Arc stood in the middle, with the Japanese Guards and Ghost Train Regiment on the left and right respectively.
"Today, let's discuss the specific arrangements for the auction," Yingwu said. "First, let's talk about the abilities of our 'Mirror Guardian'. As you can see, he's an exorcist. Yesterday, I introduced his Sky Exorcist, which is a mirror."
She paused. “And this mirror can replicate any venue he has seen.”
"Duplicate the venue?" Blue Arc raised an eyebrow. "How exactly do you copy it?"
Ke Qirui crossed his arms and offered a suggestion: "Ms. Yingwu, instead of introducing him verbally, why not let us see his abilities with our own eyes? That would be more efficient."
"Of course, that's what we came here for."
As he spoke, Yingwu held the hilt of the sword and looked sideways at Jingshou.
Jing Shou, dressed in Onmyoji attire, summoned Tianqu, and a palm-sized dressing mirror appeared in his right hand.
He opened his folding fan, held the mirror in his hand, and walked towards the wall of the villa, then gently placed the mirror on the wall. The mirror body was stuck to the wall as if it were glued with super glue, and it did not move.
Then, under everyone's gaze, the entire mirror continued to expand. After two or three seconds, the expansion ceased, and its size was now comparable to a mirror twice its size. From a distance, it looked like a door, large enough for any human to enter.
"Come in...everyone." Jing Shou said as he covered the lower half of his face with a folding fan and glanced sideways at everyone.
Then he stepped into the mirror. It was as if the mirror concealed a swamp, and the figure of the mirror guardian was sucked into it, leaving only a ripple of light.
"Captain, do we have to go into that mirror too?" Su Zimai approached Ke Qirui and asked suspiciously.
Ke Qirui did not respond, but turned his head to look at the three Japanese people.
Yingwu, Fuyuyama Nobunaga and Haihara Ritsu walked in one after another, as if they wanted to dispel the concerns of these Chinese foreign players.
Seeing this, Ke Qirui and Lan Hu entered the mirror one after another; the people from the Ghost Train Group followed closely behind.
Black Pupa looked at the scene and narrowed his eyes slightly. "What's going on? I can't possibly go into the mirror with them. These Japanese are not fishing, are they trying to catch me? I can't be fooled. I need to be more focused."
So he used his concentration like an old monk in meditation, lay on his side on the floor, and played Minesweeper without paying attention to the world.
At this moment, in the mirror world, Ke Qirui was slightly stunned, then raised his eyes from under the brim of his hat and scanned the world in the mirror.
This is a space that is exactly the same as the villa just now. The difference is that when looking out the window, there is no coastal highway or the vast ocean. All that comes into view is nothingness and desolation, as if it is the end of the world.
After thinking for a while, Ke Qirui looked up at Jing Shou and said slowly:
"I see. You plan to use the Mirror Guardian's ability to replicate the auction venue. This will effectively create two separate auction venues, effectively confusing the White Crow Brigade."
Yingwu nodded. "In a few days, we plan to have the Mirror Guardians replicate the auction scene, and then have the guests of the Yakuza Family hold a real auction in the mirror world." Yingwu paused. "And the auction in the real world is a cover... a cover to lure the White Crow Brigade into taking the bait."
Ke Qirui thought for a moment and said, "You plan to have the Mafia's bodyguards disguise themselves as guests and wait for the White Crow Brigade to arrive at the real-world auction house. The real guests, on the other hand, will hide within the mirror world. This way, you can ignore any possible risks and proceed with the auction safely."
Yingwu nodded again.
"Ms. Ke is indeed smart." Huihara Ritsu adjusted the round-frame glasses on his face, put his hands behind his back and smiled.
Lan Hu was silent for a moment. "Uh... I agree with your idea, but the problem is that the auction site and this villa are not the same size."
He paused and looked at Jing Shou. "Comrade, are you sure you can perfectly replicate an auction scene and accommodate all the guests?"
Jing Shou nodded, raised his eyes from his folding fan, and uttered a soft, snake-like voice:
"You don't have to worry about that. I personally tested it last night. If you don't want to believe it, we can try it again at the auction. But that would easily alert the enemy. I went there last night when the streets were deserted."
"I trust your abilities. This is a great proposal, very imaginative." Blue Arc looked at Mirror Guardian, then turned to look at the Ghost Train members. "Ghost Train members, what do you think?"
"The Japanese are still somewhat useful." Xu Sanyan said coldly.
Lin Zhengquan nodded. "This is indeed a good plan. It can ensure the safety of our guests while allowing us to fully fight the enemy at the auction venue in the real world."
Yingwu crossed his arms and glanced at the crowd, "So, when the time comes, we'll wait for the White Crow Brigade in the real world, while the guests can bid for the goods in the replica mirror auction house. Should everyone have reached an agreement?"
Ke Qirui shook his head. "No, Miss Yingwu, just in case, we need to arrange bodyguards inside the Mirror World as well. Otherwise, if the White Crow Brigade finds a channel to the Mirror World, wouldn't it be like entering an empty land for them?"
As she spoke, she pulled a pipe from her pocket and teased, "It's no surprise that there are people with special abilities within the White Crow Brigade. We must remain cautious, for the safety of our clients. Those gangsters wouldn't last more than half a second in the hands of the White Crow Brigade without bodyguards."
Ying Wu thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "You're right. We will temporarily divide the core bodyguard team into two groups. One group will stay in the real world, and the other group will stay in the mirror world. If they find any trace of the White Crow Brigade, the other group will immediately rush to support the attacked party."
"I don't know if I should ask this, but I have one last question." Lan Hu hugged his shoulders and thought for a moment before speaking.
Ying Wu turned to look at him: "What's the problem? Just tell me, Mr. Blue Arc."
"If Jing Shou dies, what will happen to the mirror world?" Blue Arc said, looking up at the man in Onmyoji garb. "If he dies, the mirror world will instantly collapse. Will the guests in the mirror disappear with him, or will they return to the real world?"
The Mirror Guard replied, "Please rest assured about this. Even if I die, the mirror world will last for at least half a day. Guests can leave the mirror auction venue in an orderly manner and return to the real world before the mirror world collapses."
Blue Arc sighed and looked up at Mirror Guardian.
He said: "I don't mean to be aggressive, but I think this issue is very important, so... how can I believe what you say?"
Jing Shou slowly removed the folding fan that was covering the lower half of his face and met Lan Hu's gaze.
He said, "Mr. Blue Arc said so, but I can't die here and there to prove that the mirror world can continue after my death. My understanding of Sky Drive is entirely based on the understanding gained through years of practice. Based on this understanding, I believe that even if I die, the mirror world will continue to exist for a while."
He paused and said, "Whether you are willing to believe me or not is up to you... Otherwise, our cooperation can end here."
Blue Arc remained silent.
After a long while, Ke Qirui beside him spoke up, "Mr. Lan Hu, after weighing the pros and cons, I believe that even if there's a risk of the mirror world collapsing, it's better than having those mafia elders attend the auction in the real world. Otherwise, they'd be caught in our fight and have a greater than 90% chance of dying on the spot."
"Then just listen to Miss Ke." Lan Hu smiled.
Ying Wu said in a relaxed tone, "Okay, now that we've reached a consensus, we will notify the guests one day before the auction begins, telling them that the real auction will take place in the mirror world."
She took a deep breath and said, "Then... we will intercept the White Crow Brigade outside the mirror and capture them all."
A moment later, Hei Pupa, who was playing with his mobile phone on the second floor of the villa, suddenly stood up from the floor, put away his phone, supported his head with his hands, and looked down at the villa hall.
From the mirror, Lan Hu's figure was the first to walk out.
He immediately used his restraints to type and sent a text message to Gu Qinye.
[Black Pupa: Hi, hi, hi, Mr. Blue Arc, could you please tell me what you were talking about in there? There was no sound coming from that mirror from beginning to end. I almost suspected you were dead in there.]
[Blue Arc: Tell me your true identity, and I will tell you what we talked about.]
【Black Pupa: Gu, Zhuo, An. 】
【Blue Arc: Farewell.】
