Mugino Shizuri had always felt uncomfortable with this third-place opponent and longed for an opportunity to defeat him and take the third position, but this was far from the right time! For the moment, she had no choice but to back down and said in a deep voice, "Railgun, I have no grudge against you! Now that I'm killing someone for money, you won't stop me, will you?"
"No, no, no, no! I really did come here to stop you!"
Misaka Mikoto smiled, and with a "whoosh," she jumped down from the fifth floor, standing coldly beside Chu Xing!
Looking at the injured Chu Xing, she immediately raised her eyebrows, widened her almond eyes, and said sarcastically, "Chu Xing, you're really something. Getting two LV5 espers to join forces with you makes me feel like even if you get beaten to death here, you might still become famous throughout Academy City!"
"No, no, I want to live longer. Misaka, how did you find out about me?" Chu Xing chuckled dryly and immediately changed the subject!
"I put a tracking device on you a couple of days ago that can measure your heart rate. You keep disappearing for a month and a half at a time, it's terrifying. I have to put something on you!" Misaka Mikoto said in a manner that seemed perfectly reasonable!
"Uh…"
Chu Xing was immediately embarrassed. Was having a friend like Misaka Mikoto a good thing or a bad thing? Putting GPS trackers on people all the time—was that something a normal person should do?
However, there's no time for these things now, as Mugino Shizuri and Shokuhou Misaki, who were hiding in the shadows, have both stepped forward!
It seems we don't need to look for the employer of the [props] anymore; she has already obediently stepped forward on her own!
Actually, Misaki Shokuhou really didn't want to expose herself, but Mugino Shizuri's inability to subdue Chu Xing in half a day made her panic. She was afraid that if Mugino Shizuri couldn't handle it and was forced to reveal that she had hired him, then even if she was a queen, she would have to bear certain consequences!
As a result, her move was detected by two people who had a way to counter her abilities!
Misaki Shokuhou felt that the world had become too cruel. The two people who could restrain her abilities were actually here! Was this some kind of joke?
Given the current situation, Misaki Shokuhou has no choice but to grit her teeth and charge forward! She can only hope to defeat Chu Xing and Misaka Mikoto!
Mugino Shizuri didn't treat the fifth person next to her as a human being. Her face became even more ferocious and cruel as she said, "Takitsubo, give me the Body Crystal!"
Takitsubo Riko didn't dare to resist at all and obediently handed over a small bottle!
When Chu Xing saw the bottle, he recalled a scene from an anime. He curled his finger and released a shockwave, saying to Misaka Mikoto beside him, "Don't let her eat it! Otherwise, we'll be in trouble!"
Misaka Mikoto nodded, instantly understanding Chu Xing's meaning. She tossed a coin, intending to unleash her signature move—the Railgun!
"Zi!"
Misaki Shokuhou's brain immediately unleashed its extremely strong computing power, and the heavily injured low-level espers lying behind her all got up and surrounded Misaka Mikoto!
"what!"
Misaka Mikoto screamed. These low-level ability users, covered in blood and looking like zombies, were wandering around in front of her, which was truly chilling!
In order to prevent these ability users from getting close, Misaka Mikoto had no choice but to turn them into beings emitting blue smoke!
"Gudu!"
In that short period of time, Mugino Shizuri swallowed several body crystals in one gulp!
Chu Xing ran very fast, but in the end he was still a step too slow!
Brush brush!
Mugino Shizuri unleashed an atomic collapse ray, this time a 365-degree, all-encompassing burst! And it wasn't a brief attack anymore, but a continuous beam of light!
With Mugino Shizuri so close and Misaka Mikoto more than ten meters away, there was no chance to deploy a protective shield to protect the two of them! But Chu Xing had other methods!
"Protect me!"
Chu Xing's mind raced, and in an instant, he unleashed his full power! A twisted force capable of instantly obliterating a three-story villa of 900 square meters enveloped Mugino Shizuri!
Is this an attempt to kill Mugino Shizuri?
Chu Xing doesn't have that ability yet. The villa is an inanimate object that can't release much energy. But Mugino Shizuri is different. The power she's releasing at this moment could destroy countless villas like that!
It's simply impossible for Chu Xing to eliminate Mugino Shenli!
Therefore, Chu Xing was also aware of the situation and did not intend to eliminate Mugino Shenli, but rather to protect her, providing a safety net for this crazy old woman!
###44, A lose-lose situation... Yeah, right.###
boom!
Tens of millions of atomic collapses bombarded the distortion energy shield that was only half a meter away from Mugino Shizuri's body, making the shield instantly shine like the sun, so bright that it was impossible to look directly at it, illuminating the surrounding area as if it were daytime!
Chu Xing's face turned deathly pale at that moment, because he simply couldn't control this power! It wasn't even within the range that he could control with effort!
"Run!"
Knowing there was no chance, Chu Xing immediately turned around, grabbed Misaka Mikoto who was still covering her eyes with her hands, and ran away!
Boom boom boom!
Chu Xing's meticulously crafted protective case for Maiye Shenli shattered in the next moment!
Although Chu Xing and Misaka Mikoto started first, with Shokuhou Misaki following closely behind, no one could escape!
Although the atomic disintegration began to dissipate in that short time, the destructive shockwave, like that of a nuclear explosion, was irresistible! Everyone lost consciousness!
A moment later, a burly man with a shiny head, along with his gang of henchmen, cautiously arrived at the location!
...
After an unknown amount of time, Chu Xing slowly woke up. Misaka Mikoto was lying on his bed, sleeping soundly with steady breathing!
"He must have slept for a long time again."
Chu Xing muttered to himself. He was not only hit by the shockwave of the explosion, but also overused his ability, which left his brain in a state of extreme fatigue. That's why Misaka Mikoto had already woken up and was sitting by his bedside, while Chu Xing had just woken up!
To keep track of the time precisely, Chu Xing silently picked up his phone and glanced at the date on it!
"Thank goodness, only two days have passed!" Chu Xing breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid he might have dreamt of a thousand years! He glanced again at Misaka Mikoto, who was still sleeping soundly, then activated his ability and moved upstairs!
According to the building's layout, the room above Chu Xing's is right above where the bald man imprisons other gang leaders!
Meanwhile, the people who are the "tools" and Misaki Shokuhou are also here. Unlike Chu Xing, they don't have a place to sleep. They are all tied to large iron pillars and have IV drips attached to them to keep them alive!
At this moment, the bald man saw Du Chuxing suddenly appear and quickly came up to him, saying, "Brother Chuxing, what should we do with these people? We absolutely can't leave them here. Level 5 is too important to this city. Several teams have come to scout ahead, and I'm afraid they'll attack us soon!"
Although only two days have passed since that battle, the video of the three Level 5s clashing has already been seen by countless people, and their location is also known. If it weren't for the fear of damaging certain things, they would really like to rush in and take the person away!
"It's impossible to leave them all here! How are you? Can you wake up yet?" Chu Xing ignored these questions and continued to scrutinize the group.
Two LV5s and three LV4s, even if they can't be used by him, they're still very valuable!
"It's almost done!"
The bald man quickly replied, "However, just in case, I still injected them with a large amount of sedatives. After all, such a strategic weapon could potentially blow up our company in an instant if we're not careful!"
“That’s true, it’s always good to be vigilant! But I want them to come to their senses now, is that alright?” Chu Xing asked with a smile.
"Uh... okay!" The bald man felt quite uncomfortable with the smile. He agreed first, then ordered his men to prepare several buckets of water to pour over the girls!
Wow!
It's so hot, you must be wearing very little clothing, right? So what happens after we pour water on it? This kind of fan service needs no further explanation, right?
"We must suppress it!"
Chu Xing bit his tongue to steady himself and suppress his brother's anger!
After a while, perhaps due to the ice water or the sedative's failure, all the girls shivered and woke up!
Affected by the previous shockwave, they opened their eyes in confusion, and it took them a while to realize their current predicament!
"Chu Xing, we have no grudge against each other. I was just doing this for money! It doesn't have to be this way!" Mugino Shenli said with a sullen face after realizing that he could no longer use his abilities.
Normally, it would be impossible for her to act like this, but now that she is Muye Shenli, the so-called fourth person is just a fish on a chopping board, and Chu Xing can do whatever he wants with her!
"I didn't believe your lies! You wretched, wicked woman!"
Chu Xing scoffed at such words. How old is he, still spouting such useless nonsense? If it weren't for his strength, he would probably have been blown into countless fragments by the atomic collapse by now.
Chu Xing pinched Mugino Shizuri's mouth shut, silencing him, her smile bright and cheerful: "Now that you're in my hands, Mugino Shizuri, you need to understand one thing: you mean nothing to me now! I can torture you at will! So don't talk to me like that, we're not on equal footing now!"
After saying that, Chu Xing turned away from her rather beautiful face and walked up to another Level 5 ability user, smiling in the same way as before, and said, "Shokuhou Misaki, you didn't expect this, did you? To be honest, I didn't expect it either. I don't remember you coming to bother me over something so trivial, so... do you have anything to say?"
Misaki Shokuhou was actually calmer and more composed than Shizuri Mugino, the older woman. Her face remained expressionless as she said, "No, I just wanted to kill you! Who told you to embarrass me in front of so many people?"
"That's it?"
"Otherwise, what else could be the reason I'd spend so much money to take action against you?"
"Oh, that makes sense!"
Chu Xing pinched his chin with one hand, accepting the reason... Yeah, right! Chu Xing didn't believe it at all. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that the information he had received a while ago, about Shokuhou Misaki going to Kiyama Harumi to inquire about brain development, was probably about Kamijou Touma!
After another conversation, Chu Xing could be 100% certain that the reason the [item] attacked him was partly due to Touma Kamijou!
Previously, [Tools] did indeed come to suppress illegal and powerless gathering points, including Big Baldy's stronghold. However, after it was transformed into Big Light Security Company, [Tools] had no reason to take action! It should have ended there!
The "tool" that was wandering around here just happened to run into Misaki Shokuhou, who had discovered Chu Xing's secret, and that's how this series of events unfolded!
Chu Xing sighed inwardly, "I really should stay away from this womanizer. I should never mess with him, he's just too much trouble!"
Even though she was already so far away from him and had hardly any contact with him, she still got shot. Luckily, Misaka Mikoto came to her aid this time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable! Chu Xing is probably really going to be gone!
###45, Negotiation###
"Okay, okay, that's settled then!"
After learning the whole story, Chu Xing could only sigh inwardly. He then put those thoughts aside and smiled again. He was about to move on to the second step!
"Come on, you should have thought it through before you attack me. How much compensation did you give me if the plan failed? Don't say that things will change in the future. I only care about the present. For example, I might kill you for this moment of comfort, without considering what I might face in the future!" Chu Xing paced back and forth, a hint of greed flashing in his eyes!
Everyone here is a wealthy tycoon. Any small amount of money they could scrape together would be several times more than what he earns at Daguang Security Company. In fact, two of the young ladies here are incredibly rich!
Under that gaze, Mugino Shizuri felt goosebumps rise on her skin. She said, "Just tell me what you want. As long as I can give it to you, I will! Don't tell me to keep half of it!"
"Okay, I like your straightforward personality!"
Chu Xing clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "I don't need much, 30 billion will do! I know you're a rich man, Mai Ye, 30 billion is no problem for you, right?"
"it is good!"
Mugino Shizuri agreed without hesitation. She was originally a wealthy heiress who had made a fortune in Academy City in recent years. Although 30 billion was a huge sum, she could barely afford it!
Chu Xing felt a pang of regret upon hearing Mugino Shinori's decisive agreement. He wondered if he hadn't asked for more. Should he have just asked for 100 billion yuan? After all, they were both big spenders; the difference between 30 billion and 100 billion shouldn't have been that significant, right?
But there's no rush. Chu Xing turned to Takitsubo Riko and Kinuhata Saiai, these girls who were also [props] personnel, and said, "So, do you still need these friends of yours? If so, one billion... no! 15 billion!"
Faced with such an outrageous demand, Mugino Shizuri's willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed slightly, but what could she do now? She had no choice but to compromise, saying, "So, the total is 75 billion? Okay, I'm willing!"
"Wait, all you need to do is give me 60 billion."
