Do you like Yu-Gi-Oh even if it's like this?

She raised an eyebrow.

"...You seem to know the location of Haruka and the others' autumn outing."

I stabbed back.

"Forget it, there's no point in bickering. Do you want to go?"

"…Just in case—help me prepare the car."

“Can Tesla?”

"Even a black limousine will do."

"For example, starting today, aliens have occupied Earth, and all working-age Earthlings are forced to work fourteen hours a week."

Electric cars are very comfortable to drive - at least that's what I think.

…I would be happier if the battery remaining in the upper left corner wasn’t below 20%.

"Is your usual job to weave these fantasies?"

The lights flow smoothly through the city's traffic, and have the beauty of a child driving a big car.

"Just treat it as small talk - you really have no sense of humor."

I hope the reason she didn't notice the battery level was because she thought it was sufficient, not because her left eye was bloodshot and she couldn't see.

"...In that case, what would you like to do in a life ruled by aliens? - Except playing cards, of course."

"Overthrow the aliens."

"why?"

"I don't need a job now—I can still play cards."

"……Ugh."

She sighed, muttered "Alien Taijun, this way", and then continued:

"so."

——Then there was silence for several minutes.

...No, so what does she want to express?

"Are you asking me what I want to say?"

"Speak directly if you have anything to say."

I wasn't angry at all. Today, I can assert that this man is a good person - this is not the first time we have ridiculed each other.

"You are too strong—"

Her words sounded like a compliment, but I guess it wouldn't be wrong to call them sarcasm.

"If you like something, you will chase it; if you dislike something, you will stay away from it. You don't understand the thinking of the weak... What you know is that if you like something, you will hold it in your hands; if you dislike something, you will get rid of it and kill it."

To avoid the oncoming vehicle going the other way, she honked the horn hard, making a shrill sound, but the car's good soundproofing meant the only sound inside the car was like a duck being strangled by the neck.

"Or maybe you can be a little more arrogant, and love someone so much that you can kill everyone around him/her, leaving him/her with only you - how about this?"

He licked his lips, and there was a hint of unclear emotion in his glance.

“…It’s quite exciting.”

I didn't know how to comment on this, but then she spoke again.

"Or to put it more bluntly—"

The heating in the car stopped in an instant, and the icy cold penetrated my neck through the crack in the door.

"You were the one who killed Die's parents, right?"

..............................................................................

..............................................................................

As the battery ran out, the tram slowly stopped by the roadside.

Deng took a pipe from his pocket, took two puffs in imitation of Holmes, and then coughed up blood.

Not far away, the nine-legged spider had disappeared around the corner.

The cold wind was howling and the lamp was staring at the sky.

Where is nonsense, where is confusion... I always feel that apart from what the company can access, there are too many mysteries surrounding this group of people.

(Damn it… the information is still not enough.)

She sighed, then leaned against the car door and dialed a number.

Ultra mainstream shadows:

Chapter 143 20 Udumbara

The so-called duel...

The essence is not to listen, the means is to listen.

The essence is not to say it, the means is to say it.

Yes, it is the same as [persuasion].

When I was a kid, I thought about the strains in this botanical garden.

——After all, I grew up in this city, where snakes, insects, rats, ants and giant cockroaches are commonplace.

If I could have a poisonous plant, I could start by making containers and traps by myself, and get rid of snakes, insects, rats and ants in my home. Maybe I would feel refreshed.

...But the security of this botanical garden is quite strict. Every plant and every bush of deadly poison has a corresponding surveillance camera.

I didn't want to get into trouble, so I didn't do it in the end.

But the overwhelming surveillance is still quite impressive.

I mean, it's generally impossible to die completely silently in this botanical garden.

So, if death were to occur in a place like this...

"Did someone find a place full of rare plants to commit suicide, or did someone attempt a difficult crime?"

..........................................................................................

In the autumn outing team, Die and Yao are in a group.

——Lecia, who was originally scheduled to be in a group with the two of them, took a leave during the autumn outing and went to the embassy to get her visa extended.

"Okay, now it's free time - remember to write your essay when you get back, so be careful."

"Teacher, please don't say such discouraging words at this time..."

When some students complained, the rough-looking head teacher just shrugged his shoulders, clapped his hands and signaled for them to disperse.

The snowfall the day before had brought lower temperatures, but the two of them didn’t put on more clothes—it was the characteristic of children that they didn’t know the cold or heat.

But after all, it would be uncomfortable to stay there for too long, so I identified the direction and pointed to one of the exhibition halls from a distance.

——The tropical botanical garden not far away seemed to have good heating, so Die and Yao prepared to move over there.

"...Come to think of it, it seems like all the nearby schools are having an autumn outing today."

I saw a group of people moving towards this side, many of whom were wearing school uniforms from different schools.

"Eh? Trump?"

However, in addition to students, you can also see wonderful people from society.

Trump was dressed more formally than usual and adjusted the position of his tie with some discomfort.

"Hey!! Trump!!!"

——Tep’s face froze, and he looked around before he waved to Die and Yao amid the strange looks from the people around him.

"Why is Mr. Trump here?"

Die looked at the children around T0p and they seemed to be a class from a nearby junior high school.

"I have a friend who is bedridden. He originally asked me to substitute for his class, but there happened to be an autumn outing during my substitute teaching period..."

Trump spread his hands.

"Ah, my pleasant work-free routine..."

"Is Mr. Trump also unemployed?"

"I wasn't until I took an arrow to the knee..."

......................................................

He climbed over the fence and slipped lightly through the hole in the barbed wire.

——This is the place I once recorded, and it seems to have not changed much.

There was no entrance fee required here in the early years, but now the revenue seems to be good.

"Let me see. According to the location that guy gave me..."

I headed towards the location of the boreal plants.

"To die in such a position in such a cold weather, what a troublesome fellow."

Along the gravel road, the flow of people gradually decreased.

A chill that was slightly different from the temperature wrapped around my back, bringing a familiar feeling.

"Long time no see, nine-legged spider."

Along with an emotionless greeting, an invisible black shadow suddenly appeared in front of me.

"...Officer Udumbara, you are still the same."

The bandaged man's face was completely covered in black, and under his hood, he seemed to be hidden in shadow even in a well-lit room.

"You have become weaker - what has made you like this?"
