Chapter 12
Welcome to my darkside
After the message was delivered,
Split Four gracefully saluted and his figure once again disappeared into the
darkness.
Ichiyo Higuchi licked the corners of his somewhat dry mouth and said
in a lowered voice, "Boss, the words just now ...."
"Of course I heard everything."Ogai
Mori voice came from the headset, "I never had any doubts about the fact that
Ms. Tokisaki could complete the mission, in the end the purpose of this mission
was simply to find out what she was capable of, I originally thought that we
would get nothing tonight, but now it seems that we are still lucky."
"She just said please make a
handover with the main body, does that mean that the one that just appeared in
front of us was a doppelganger?"
"That's probably it, vanish into
the shadows, move instantly, read memories, and create a doppelganger, so far
Ms. Tokisaki has shown four different abilities."Ogai Mori said with interest, "Just
what kind of psychic ability is it that can grant a psychic these four almost
unrelated abilities? Or is she just making it up?"
By this time, Ichiyo Higuchi had
also dispelled her inner suspicion of Tokisaki Kurumi.
She also didn't feel that the
doppelganger that had just appeared was lying, after all, she was going to make
a personal trip to the factory next, so lying was simply useless.
Taking a deep breath, Ichiyo
Higuchi took a step and carefully walked towards the factory.
Dark moon and windy night.
Heavy leaden clouds blocked the
silver light cast by the curved moon, plunging the entire land into darkness.
The outskirts of Yokohama were
lifeless, like an abandoned and deserted place, filled with deadness and
coldness.
The biting night wind that blew
in through the collar was like being cut by the scythe of death, taking away
the slightest bit of life's heat.
In the darkness, Higuchi almost
lost sight of what was in front of him, so he took out the flashlight he had
brought along with him before he could see the road again.
Arriving at the factory gate, Ichiyo
Higuchi saw a stunning young girl in a gorgeous dress standing quietly at the
door, waiting for her arrival.
"Ms. Higuchi, I have
investigated the information you wanted."
Tokisaki Kurumi looked as
elegant as ever, not seeing the slightest bit of fatigue or wretchedness, not
like someone who had just completed a mission.
Behind her, the sound of
something heavy being dragged came.
Ichiyo Higuchi slightly raised
her flashlight and let the light into the factory, barely providing some vision.
When she looked behind Tokisaki Kurumi,
her pupils couldn't help but contract slightly.
Inside the factory, four people
who looked exactly like Tokisaki Kurumi were dragging the people in the
factory, making them put their backs against the wall and clearing a path.
However, these people did not
resist in the slightest, as if they had fainted.
"Care much for them?"
Seemingly noticing Ichiyo
Higuchi line of sight, Tokisaki Kurumi said indifferently, "These people are
all employees in this factory, so you port mafia can just deal with them."
"I understand, we will interrogate them."
"Interrogate? There's no need, I
already have all the information."Tokisaki Kurumi shook his head, "This is a
gang from Kansai, a stronghold set up by the Konoha Alliance in Yokohama, it is
also a factory for the production of drugs, they want to expand their business
here, and this factory is their first test."
Afterwards, Tokisaki Kurumi
handed over some information in her hand, "These are the addresses of the small
drug trafficking strongholds in Yokohama, as well as evidence of some
organizations that have private dealings with the Konohagakure Alliance, and I'm
confident that you'll be able to deal with what comes next."
"Ms. Tokisaki, you've done an
excellent job of investigating, so leave the next matters to us."Ichiyo Higuchi
glanced at Tokisaki Kurumi in slight surprise, "Drug trafficking in Yokohama
only leads to death, this is one of the iron rules of the port mafia, and we
won't allow anything that jeopardizes the city."
"After all, fighting against the
black forces as black forces is the duty of the harbor mafia then."Tokisaki Kurumi
nodded in understanding, "Then, I'll leave the next matter to you."
"Of course, since we already
know the information we need, they have no value."Ichiyo Higuchi said indifferently, "We'll send someone to kill them afterward, you don't need to dirty your hands."
"Dirty ....my hands?"
At those words, a wacky smile
appeared at the corner of Tokisaki Kurumi's mouth.
A low chuckle also came from the
Bluetooth headset linked to Mori outside.
Ichiyo Higuchi's insides
tightened, wondering what he had said wrong.
"Hear that, us?"
Tokisaki Kurumi twisted his head
to look at the doppelgangers in the factory, the corners of his mouth lifting up in an unconcealed smile, "Hear that? Ms. Higuchi said we don't need to dirty our hands."
Behind Tokisaki Kurumi, those
equally poised young girls couldn't help but let out a light laugh as well.
That laughter was clearly clear
and moving, as if it was a clear spring in a valley, instinctively soothing the restless hearts of others.
But for some reason, when their
laughter was intertwined together, it was as if it was endowed with the power to freeze the soul, making Ichiyo Higuchi feel like falling into an ice cave.
The noble and elegant maidens
were transformed into ghosts and monsters who killed people for fun in the darkness at this moment, conveying a playful gaze to each other.
The leaden clouds in the sky
that blocked the moonlight slowly moved away, letting the meager silver light
spill out onto the earth.
As a result, Higuchi Ichiyo saw
strands of white hair moving in the wind under the moonlight, as well as an old
and dried up corpse that looked like a human stem.
It was like a legendary monster
that had been drained of its life and essence, and all that was left was this twilight body.
When Higuchi Ichiyo got a clear
view of the factory, her pupils contracted violently and she couldn't help but
take a step back.
She felt as if she had intruded
into a vampire's lair, a pair of bright red and golden eyes lit up in the
darkness, staring at her as if they would pounce on her at any moment to suck
her, the lamb, into oblivion.
At this moment, Ichiyo Higuchi
finally realized what Ogai Mori had said.
They weren't some kind of young
ladies who grew up in an ivory tower, they were clearly the embodiment of evil,
the purest evil in this world!
Monsters worse than Akutagawa
Ryunosuke!
Real monsters!
"What's wrong, Ms. Higuchi, your
face doesn't look very good."
With a strong sense of concern, Tokisaki
Kurumi took a step closer to her, as if to check her condition more closely.
Ichiyo Higuchi face stiffened and she forced a few words out from between her teeth, "I ....I'm fine ...."
How could she not understand what mistake she had made?
This innocent and concerned expression was merely Tokisaki Kurumi' disguise, underneath this charming skin, there was a bloodthirsty and brutal monster hidden.
And himself, he actually spent so much time with such a monster in a closed car?
Even treating her as a young girl and worrying about her future?
Thinking back to the smile that showed at the corner of Tokisaki Kurumi mouth in the car, I'm afraid that it wasn't out of politeness, but rather a smile filled with mockery and playfulness.
Ichiyo Higuchi body went cold all over.
"Really, that's good."Tokisaki Kurumi
said with a faint smile, "My mission ends here, so please tell Mr. Mori for mm that I will meet him at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
And Ichiyo Higuchi didn't say a word, she was already dominated by fear, and to still be able to stand her ground was an amazing feat of perseverance.
"Then let's go."
Communicating instructions to the doppelgangers inside the factory, the doppelgangers drilled into Tokisaki Kurumi
shadow one by one.
"I'll leave the debriefing to you, I'm sure you can tell Mr. Mori what happened here, right?"
Seeing Ichiyo Higuchi nod stiffly, Tokisaki Kurumi then smiled, "That would be great, see you next time,Ms. Higuchi."
Owing slightly, Tokisaki Kurumi bid her farewell and disappeared.
When she was gone, the heavy air eased only slightly, and Ichiyo Higuchi fell to her knees as she breathed in the cold air with a big gulp.
The cold wind of the night had taken away almost every bit of warmth from her body, leaving her cold and shivering slightly.
But the wariness that came from
her soul did not come from the cold.
Over the headphones, Ogai Mori compassionate words came.
"It's really hard on you."
