But even so, he just stared, pressed his hand directly on the opponent's head, pressed him to the ground, and raised one of his knees to press down the opponent's palm that was trying to push him away.

His other hand also tightly grasped the opponent's wrist, and with brute force, he made the tip of the dagger point towards the opponent's heart little by little.

In this pure contest of strength, his advantage was fully utilized, allowing the sharp tip of the knife to penetrate the thick clothing and sink into the flesh, causing the middle-aged man's life to disappear bit by bit with the flowing blood.

"Do not worry."

Seeing that the other person's eyes had begun to become somewhat distracted, Ji Hui slowly spoke.

"You died in battle with the extraterritorial demons. Now you can be proud when you reunite with your family."

The last words that reached his ears made him tremble slightly as if he had a last burst of energy, and a hint of relief slowly appeared on his originally stiff face.

After seeing the other party's life signs completely disappear, Ji Hui also stood up and looked at the area that had become a mess in the conflict, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.

It’s not that they don’t know the situation or the overall situation.

They can fight fearlessly on dangerous battlefields for more innocent people.

They can deliberately reduce the scale of their actions in order to avoid implicating others.

In order to influence other relatives, they can first separate Ji Hui from others and then slowly settle the score.

They also knew that they might be different from those demons from outside the domain, and it was unreasonable that all the sins they had committed in the past were now completely weighed down on them.

But no matter how much they knew all this, hatred and pain still entangled them, making it impossible for them to accept the fact that they had to cooperate with an extraterritorial demon.

It is a contradiction, an inevitable contradiction that is destined to be stuck at the moment of transition.

Words and empathy cannot solve the problem, nor can shelving and tolerance. Some conflicts are ultimately unavoidable.

So at least in the end, letting them die at the hands of this alien demon is far better than dying in a fight with their compatriots.

If I have to say, this is the last bit of respect I give them.

However, this is only limited to people like them, who, even when they are almost crazy or insane, are still unwilling to drag the people around them into the water.

So, Ji Hui slowly took off his glasses, and while making the obstacles transparent, he saw another group of beings hidden in the building.

Chapter 393 Two requirements

boom--

Amidst the violent tremors, the people who were placing the bombs were also startled. The scene looked like an earthquake, and the wall that was almost touching their scalps was peeling off.

"Could it be that we have been discovered?"

One of them couldn't help but ask, causing the other to shake his head hesitantly.

"That shouldn't happen. After all, we came here to infiltrate Karaman's group. Duncan's group's attention is basically all on them right now. They should be completely unaware of our situation."

"not to mention"

As he spoke, he glanced down at the bomb placed on the pipe.

"It doesn't matter even if we're discovered. The worst that can happen is we'll die together. We don't plan on returning alive anyway."

"What the hell is this Dark Mace Garden? I joined here to avenge my wife and daughter, and now they have the nerve to add an extraterritorial demon into the mix. What's next? Are you going to negotiate peace with the damn Broken Star Palace? I can't stand this."

With that resentment in his heart, he couldn't help but curse, causing the others to nod in agreement.

"That's right. Since they don't have the ability to do this, then we can do it ourselves. Who's afraid of who? If we die, we die. It's worth it to be able to take away these scum who bow down to the extraterritorial demons."

However, the next moment, a sound suddenly came from above their heads, as if some kind of laser was cutting something, causing all of their pupils to shrink instantly.

For those who have fought alongside magical girls for a long time, the meaning of that voice is all too clear.

That's why they were not shocked at all about being discovered, and their actions became faster.

"Hurry, hurry, they're coming in soon, set the bomb!"

"Don't worry about the power, just adjust it to the maximum and drag as many people as possible with you."

It was as if the time of the entire world, except for himself, had moved forward several seconds.

In the blink of an eye, the scene before their eyes changed, causing their pupils to shrink instantly.

At some point, the ceiling disappeared, revealing a large crack that looked as if it had been torn apart. The night sky, which had become blurred by the city lights, was revealed.

Behind them, Ji Hui was already standing at the edge of the huge hole.

Judging from the traces at the back, it seemed that he used something huge to rise directly from the bottom up, knocked open the ceiling, and then jumped directly up.

However, the question of how he got here is no longer important.

"Outlander Demon——!"

Almost the moment they saw him, those people erupted in roars of extreme resentment.

Some of them rushed directly towards him, while others rushed towards the bomb, ready to detonate it directly at zero distance, thus destroying the entire building and them along with it.

However, the beam of light that fell from the sky turned the arm of the man who first touched the bomb into powder.

More blades of light fell, like wedges, nailing them all to the ground. They struggled and wailed in pain as their hands and feet were pierced.

Many members of the Dark Mace Garden jumped down from the edge of the cave entrance and began to tie up those people tightly with their weapons. Several other magical girls also flew down and cooperated with their actions to remove the bombs placed here and in other areas.

One of them seemed to be the leading magical girl and rushed over, forcing a smile on her ashen face.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ji Hui, you just arrived in Starfall City, and something like this happened. I'm truly sorry."

Ji Hui did not answer, but only looked at the people being escorted behind her before slowly asking.

"Those people, are you going to deal with them yourselves?"

It seemed that he was also angry about their behavior, and his expression became even worse.

"I understand your dissatisfaction and concerns. Please believe me, my disdain and disgust for them is no less than yours. Therefore, regarding their handling, we will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

As she spoke, she glanced at the magical girls passing by in the sky and casting curious glances at them.

"However, this isn't an execution ground after all. We can't hold a one-stop trial here, from trial to execution. I hope you can understand this."

"I have two requests."

Wu Jihui said calmly, causing the magical girl to nod slightly.

"You said, we will do our best to satisfy you."

"I have to be there when you kill them. If you don't agree, I will kill them right here and now."

"Yes, that's absolutely fine."

The magical girl nodded without any hesitation, and at the same time felt a little relieved in her heart.

"Secondly, all the property of that group was divided among the surviving relatives of another group of people who were fighting underground with guns."

His words made the magical girl silent for a while, and then she slowly replied.

"I'm sorry, but they have no living relatives."

"Then give the money to people who are in the same situation as them."

"I understand."

Her expression grew more serious and she nodded solemnly.

"As for Mr. Ji Hui, you should return to the hotel and rest. The other members should take you to a new hotel."

"Ah."

Ji Hui didn't say much. After a brief response, he started walking towards the hotel.

"that"

However, before he left completely, the magical girl called him hesitantly.

"Thank you."

She also spoke slowly in a complicated tone.

"You're welcome."

Ji Hui didn't look back. After leaving these words, he walked away.

The magical girl took a deep breath, regained her spirit, and flew out of the hole in the ground.

"Alright, alright, stop standing around, it's over. Please don't interfere with our work. If you want to participate, please apply for the mission in advance."

For this Starfall City, which has basically maintained peace and rarely seen major events, this explosion was like a sudden burst of fireworks, attracting the attention of the people here.

People who already had a vague premonition of such an event, after the explosion and conflict actually occurred, their uneasiness and palpitations began to ferment into a deeper tension, making them even more restless.

And that conflict, like a signal, reminded everyone here that a unique extraterritorial demon had arrived at the headquarters of Dark Mace Garden and officially began to push the originally unchanging situation into an unknown direction.

Chapter 394: Change of Mindset

As soon as they arrived here, a large wave of people came. While reminding Ji Hui and others of the dangers here, it also shocked many people who originally lived and worked here.

Although there are indeed many people who are strongly dissatisfied with Ji Hui and others, their ideas are still just ideas. When it comes to what they actually want to do, they still maintain basic rationality.

It was precisely because of this that the actions of those extremists had truly frightened them all about the long-awaited conflict in the Starfall City, and they no longer dared to harbor any hope of luck.

After all, in their perception, even if something happens, it will take at least a few days to deal with it, and the conflict should basically take the form of mutual dissatisfaction, starting with cursing at each other, and then fighting.

Obviously, after discovering that there really were a group of lunatics who would rather take the entire building with them to bury them than avenge Ji Hui and others, even those who harbored dissatisfaction began to realize the dangers of some overly extreme existences, making those security measures that were difficult to judge because of the extraterritorial demons fully play a role.

The most direct thing is that the presence of Ji Hui and others is no longer as secretive as before, and the security measures around their new residence have also been upgraded by several levels.

"This is in line with the strength of Starfall City."

When he saw at the very beginning that they were actually strolling around the city like ordinary tourists, he felt something was not right. Even if they had deliberately kept a low profile, it would not have been to that extent.

Thinking about it now, I'm afraid some people must have known about their plan to secretly attack me and others, but simply remained silent. That's why they succeeded and appeared harmless at first.

As for how those people were persuaded, and whether they were fooled by those lunatics and didn't know that they actually planned to blow up the entire building, it had nothing to do with them.

The incident is over. Instead of thinking about it, it is better to think carefully about what you will face in the future.

"Although we were attacked, in a sense, it should be considered a good thing."

Sean, with a few more bandages on his body, smiled, trying to ease the tense atmosphere caused by the previous attack.

Especially since this floor has been booked out and there are only a few of them in the restaurant, it would be an exaggeration to call it a dinner party.

After all, there are some magical girls standing guard at places like the door, which looks more like prison life no matter how you look at it.

"At least, for many people who originally held some resistance, the actions of those lunatics have made it easier for them to calm down and improve their attitudes. The staff on duty will also be more focused on checking if there are any problems."

"By improving your attitude, do you mean showing some pity to the Outer Realm Demon?"

However, Ji Hui's words made Sean suddenly stand there in an awkward position, and the action of using tongs to pick up the fried noodles in the thermos pot was slightly stuck.

And Chizuru Yuzen, who was next to Ji Hui, couldn't help but pat Ji Hui's shoulder gently, with a slight reproach and helplessness in her eyes.

After all, Sean is responsible for protecting their safety. Not long ago, he risked his life to protect them. Even if they are angry, they should not vent it on him.

Ji Hui, who also noticed some problems in his words, shook his head slightly and his tone became softer.

"I'm sorry, my tone was a bit harsh, but it wasn't directed at you."

"However, I really don't expect those people to treat me well just because a bunch of lunatics tried to take the building with them."

"Their guilt is probably only directed at the other innocent companions in the building. We are just incidental."

"As for whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, it's hard to say. After all, these lunatics' bombing will certainly scare a lot of people. But at the same time, some people who were already ready to act might become even bolder after seeing this precedent, and start to imitate their actions, hiding deeper and using more ruthless methods."

他的话语,也9让肖0恩的表情4一并变得严肃8了许多,点着4头说道。2《9°05★

"I understand, and we will do our best to prevent this from happening again."

"Is it"

However, Ji Hui didn't seem to have any hope for this, and just looked down at the drink in the cup.

Although it was just a paranoid thought, in the kitchen, maybe the original chef had already been secretly replaced.

It seems that the current security measures are indeed very strict, but that is only a temporary confusion caused by the news of the recent bombing.

By the time some people come to their senses, these so-called strict security measures may become gaps on another level.
