Of course, it was done independently without the FBI's involvement.
After all, changing one's mind is really outrageous. He is very worried that if the FBI obtains this technology, whether mankind will still have a future.
No one else knew about his investigation into the Phantom Thieves of Hearts except himself.
So, when Hondou Eikai just gave a brief account of Shido Masayoshi's situation and Furuya Rei's reaction, he caught the fleeting flash of inspiration.
Shi Tong Zhengyi has changed his mind!
And Rei Furuya has already had a very in-depth understanding of the intelligence of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts!
Otherwise, the Japanese public security officer who was wary of everyone would never make a judgment on Shido Zhengyi's situation so easily, and even hinted at his own "undercover" identity.
"You can't go back to the organization. I'll give you an address. You can go there to take shelter first." Akai Shuichi gave Hondou Eikai an address.
That was the 'FBI safe house' known only to him and James.
He had originally planned to move to that "safe house" immediately once the Kudo residence was exposed.
But in the current situation, Hondou Eikai needs that safe house more than he does.
"I have a gunshot wound." said Hondou Eikai.
"There are all kinds of medicines in that safe house. You should be able to treat your wounds on your own." Akai Shuichi used a narrative tone, but expressed the experience that made Hondou Eikai feel like he was being scolded by his father.
"Don't contact anyone for now. A familiar face will come to see you later, and you will just follow his orders." After saying that, Shuichi Akai hung up the phone without waiting for Hondou Eikai to reply.
Turning around, Shuichi Akai took out his mobile phone, contacted James, and informed him of the situation on Hondou Eikai's side.
"What's your judgment?" James keenly noticed that Shuichi Akai had already made a decision, so he took the initiative to ask.
"If nothing unexpected happens, Bourbon should have reached a cooperative relationship with Shido Masayoshi, who became the third in command. Then what they need to do next is to eliminate Kiel, the only 'mouth' present." Akai Shuichi replied, "Kil has completely lost the possibility of returning to the organization to continue his undercover work."
"Contact the CIA and ask them to pick him up."
"It would be best to arrange for someone Hondou Eikai also knows."
"...Shuichi, you can trust me completely." James realized that Shuichi Akai was hiding something.
That was not the kind of 'concealment' that was intended to play a game with oneself, but a 'concealment' in a state of distrust.
It has been a long time since James felt this kind of distrust from Shuichi Akai.
"Old James, have your senses deteriorated?" Shuichi Akai's tone didn't change at all. He just hung up the phone after saying this.
"…but you've never explained anything about this before." Looking at the phone in his hand, James was silent for a moment before muttering to himself.
James's eyes turned slightly and fell on a few photos next to the coffee table.
The photo shows Masumi Sera walking into Teitan High School wearing a student uniform.
After Mary entered the scene, the FBI was also busy.
Although the senior MI6 executive was not seen, her whereabouts were not concealed too much.
This photo was also brought to him by Judy yesterday.
Judy didn't know much about Shuichi Akai, so she naturally didn't know who the girl in the photo was.
But James is different.
He is the one in the FBI who knows Shuichi Akai's family background best.
Naturally, I know the meaning of the surname "Shiliang".
Especially since this 'Sera' entered Japan almost on the same day as the head of MI6.
"I hope it's not what I think, Shuichi." James looked at the photo without any fluctuation in his eyes, "Otherwise, I will have no choice but to bury you with my own hands."
Well, old James now suspects that Shuichi Akai is planning to go back to his mother's family.
……
Sakura Futaba: I have lost my position as Shido Justice now!
Sakamoto Ryuji: Huh? What's going on?
Yukinoshita Yukino: Lost... Does this mean that you have been monitoring Shido Masayoshi's whereabouts?
Sakura Futaba: He is the big boss after all, so checking his location coordinates at any time is my daily must.
Sakura Futaba: But today when I checked as usual, I found that his information was completely gone from the Internet. His location was also completely lost.
Sakamoto Ryuji: This doesn't look like repentance at all! Could it be that our operation has failed?
Shinjima: That's impossible! We have undoubtedly defeated Shido Masayoshi and brought out his 'secret treasure'! The change of heart should have been completed!
Yuigahama Yui: Could it be that because the palace was destroyed by the monster? What went wrong in the process and the change of heart failed?
Amamiya Ren: This may be related to the sudden collapse of Shido's Hall of Justice... But now Shido's Hall of Justice has disappeared, and we can no longer do anything about it. The only thing we can do now is to wait for changes.
Yukinoshita Yukino: Maybe you can go to the Impression Space to check.
Yukinoshita Yukino: My sister said that the memory space is the only way to "peek" into other people's hearts after the hall disappears. However, we cannot be sure whether Shido Zhengyi will appear in the memory space after the hall disappears.
……
"Please! Please lend me the crystal ball temporarily! I will return it as soon as I finish the divination!"
Looking at Koizumi Hongzi who made a request to him with the most respectful attitude, Taiyi nodded in agreement without saying a word.
People knelt down and begged so sincerely.
"So, what do you want to predict?" Looking at Taiyi's back as he turned back to his room to get the crystal ball, Akane Shinjo asked curiously.
"... Maybe you don't believe it." Koizumi Hongzi hesitated for a moment before explaining, "I wanted to use the magic potion to perform a witch divination before, but I found out that the end of the world was coming."
"Before I could find out what was going on with the end of the world, the effect of the potion had already ended, and those materials could not be replenished in a short period of time, so I had no choice but to come to His Majesty and borrow the crystal ball."
"...Ah? The end of the world?" Shinjo Akane's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she looked at Koizumi Hongzi in surprise, "We just confirmed it not long ago, and you've already found out through divination?"
Chapter 213: There is no need to be ashamed to bow down and kneel for the sake of survival
"Your Majesty, please make me your subject!"
Taichi returned to the first floor with the crystal ball, and was a little confused when he saw Koizumi Hongzi in front of him, whose attitude was even lower than before.
"She came here to use the crystal ball to predict the end of the world." Akane Shinjo explained, "It should be the thing you mentioned before, Taichi, so I explained it to her briefly. And then she became like this."
Taiyi suddenly realized, and looked at Koizumi Hongzi with a deeper look.
This is a witch who knows how to make potions and use magic.
"You want to become a citizen of my private kingdom? Then first tell me what you can bring to my kingdom."
Different from the others who were invited by Taiyi to go to the new country.
Koizumi Akako is the type of person who has both ability and an extremely arrogant mentality.
This can be seen from her attitude towards the spirit of Satan, the devil from hell.
If Taichi and Akane Shinjo were not so unorthodox and could not directly interfere with the material world, Koizumi Akako would not have lowered her posture so much.
She needs to be suppressed.
"The inheritance of potions and magic." Koizumi Hongzi pressed her forehead to the ground and shouted out the only thing she could show off. "My magic and the potions I made all come from the inheritance of my ancestors. I can develop this inheritance system in the new country. Train a group of loyal and capable witches for your majesty!"
"Are you willing to contribute your family's inheritance?" Taiyi raised his eyebrows and looked at Koizumi Hongzi with some surprise and asked.
The person who guards his family heritage so tightly that he would rather die than pass it on to others will actually open up on his own initiative one day.
Taichi was shocked by Koizumi Hongzi's determination.
"Yes!" Koizumi Hongzi did not hesitate for even a minute and answered in a loud voice.
"Okay, considering your sincerity." Taiyi touched his chin, then nodded and agreed, "I will allow you to join the new country... By the way, as a reward for your voluntary contribution of family heritage, I can give you a few places to travel with you."
"However, unlike you who can obtain citizenship of a new country as soon as you enter the new country, your fellow travelers need to work in the new country and make certain contributions before they have the opportunity to obtain citizenship."
"I don't think I need to explain the benefits of citizenship. Someone will introduce the relevant content to you later."
Taichi walked over to Koizumi Hongzi, took her arm and helped her up.
"It's my honor." Koizumi Hongzi nodded with red eyes.
Koizumi Hongzi sold everything she had as capital and left with the crystal ball.
Although she had already learned the source of the end of the world from Akane Shinjo, she still wanted to find out what exactly would happen.
Otherwise, without any useful advice, she wouldn't be able to persuade a stupid and stubborn thief and his childhood sweetheart.
"How does it feel? That witch?" Taiyi suddenly turned his head and looked towards the stairs behind him and asked.
As the purple-black miasma dissipated, Tamamonomae's figure appeared there.
"She's still too young." Tamamonomae's lips curled up slightly, and she answered softly, "But she has outstanding potential. If I give her to you to train her, it will be no problem for her to be on par with the masters of spells and magic in the fairy world within ten years."
"What if I tell you that she can even pause the time of a planet if she is given time to prepare her home field in advance?" Taichi tilted his head and looked at Tamamonomae and continued.
"..." Tamamonomae's expression was a little stiff. "Then I can only say that she is a bit biased in her studies, but her potential is much greater than I expected."
"Ten years can be shortened to four years. She needs to master a lot of basic knowledge and lay a solid foundation." Tamamonomae said stubbornly.
After all, in the entire fairy world, only Princess Kaguya can manipulate magic such as time with ease.
If the human girl named Koizumi Akako can really do it, then her future may go even further than the immortals.
It's just a pity that he was a short-lived human.
In the long river of history, her glory is destined to be just like a flash in the pan, brilliant for a moment.
"It's better that you didn't deceive the Master, bug." Minamoto no Raikou's face suddenly appeared on Tamamonomae's shoulder.
Tamamonomae was so frightened that her body tensed straight.
The ones who came to Taichi's side on duty today were Tamamonomae and Minamoto no Raikou.
I don’t know what the rear court discussed to send such a combination over here.
"Speaking of which, Your Majesty. What kind of monster disaster is this on Earth? Is it like the monsters on Olympus?" Tamamonomae tried to change the subject.
"The monsters in Olympus are not worth mentioning." Taiyi shook his head and sighed, "It's hard to say, but if one of my current opponents goes to Olympus, there is a high probability that Olympus can be completely destroyed within a day."
"This is really... makes the fox curious and want to take a look." Tamamonomae stuck out his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth gently, muttering.
"Want to see it? Sure, I'll satisfy you." Taichi directly took out the ragdoll cat from Akane Shinjo's arms and threw it to Tamamonomae, "Feel the pressure this cat gives you, and then strengthen this pressure a thousand times, almost enough to compete with the person I'm going to fight next."
Tamamonomae caught the ragdoll cat thrown by Taichi with some confusion. Just when she was about to ask Taichi what he meant, the ragdoll cat in her arms suddenly meowed softly.
In an instant, the nine tails behind Tamamonomae suddenly exploded, and every hair stood on end!
Tamamonomae herself was like a frightened cat. She threw the ragdoll cat away and took several steps back until she bumped into Minamoto no Raikou's chest and was forced to stop.
The Ragdoll Cat did a backflip out of thin air and then landed steadily on the ground.
Lift up the little paw and clean it with your tongue.
"Your Majesty, what...is this cat?" Tamamonomae swallowed, wiped the cold sweat from his temples, and forced himself to control his trembling legs as he asked.
This was the first time that after receiving negative emotions, she not only did not feel "delicious", but even felt that her courage and heart were about to be crushed to death.
"It's a negative energy monster." Shinjo Akane picked up the ragdoll cat from the floor and explained to Tamamonomae with a wink, "It can only be considered a small BOSS in a unit drama, not even a level BOSS, let alone the final BOSS."
Tamamonomae didn't understand what Akane Shinjo said, but she understood it roughly.
This cat that made him feel in danger of death was not even ranked among the opponents after His Majesty.
These were nothing to be astonished about. What made Tamamonomae most curious now was... why could this girl in front of him, who had no special energy fluctuations, simply ignore the "intimidation" of this cat monster?
Chapter 214: Late but Arrived: "Taiping Customs and Local Customs"
"Ah, our eyes met." When her eyes met Akane Shinjo's, Tamamonomae couldn't help but suddenly say something that was somewhat out of her control.
The next moment, her consciousness seemed to sink into the sea... When she opened her eyes again, her perspective had changed.
There was even a voice like a 'narration' in her ears, introducing the current situation to her.
The small town in front of us is called Dujuantai...
"What's wrong with her?" Taichi poked Tamamonomae's face with his finger but got no response. Looking at Tamamonomae's eyes that had completely lost their luster, Taichi turned his head curiously and looked at Shinjo Akane and asked.
"I'm not sure either." Xin Tiao Qian scratched her cheek in confusion and replied, "After all... you know, I don't necessarily understand what strange abilities I have."
"...As expected of a high-dimensional person." Taiyi couldn't help but applaud and praised, "Same as me."
