According to the coordinates sent back by Deng Huailing, Yue Yesheng is hiding in a residential area on the west edge of the city, which is beyond the scope of the prosperous area.That area is a chaotic area, named for the row upon row of love hotels and nightclubs—very similar to the one once located in Tokyo, so people habitually call it "Kabukicho".

The bright red clouds filled the edge of the city, and Rosie drove in the air on a motorcycle, like a fish chasing the trajectory of the setting sun.His speed was extremely fast, and soon he was far away from the bustling area. Kabukicho came into view, and the colorful signs spread out in a sea of light under the setting sun., looking around slowly, turning her head.

Rosie glanced at the signboards. Most of the custom shops feature bionic people. The faces on the huge advertisements are male and female, extremely beautiful, but without exception, the prices are marked next to those faces, which makes him feel inexplicably weird, also touched his face.

The rest of the signs are nightclubs and hotels, and the decoration of each house is extremely ambiguous.This is a no-man's land. Although it is under the jurisdiction of the government on the surface, shops with operating licenses are mixed with black shops, and it cannot be completely supervised. Prostitutes, criminals, and black households gather together, and gang power spreads here.

Normally, Rosie felt that he would be scolded by Deng Huailing when he came here. He couldn't explain why, but he just vaguely thought so.But Deng Huailing was not here today, and no one stopped him from entering this red-light district. Rosie found a nearby rooftop and landed, drifted smoothly and braked suddenly, parked the motorcycle in the middle of a pile of debris, reached out and took off the helmet,Long hair scattered.

He got out of the car and compared the coordinates of Yue Yesheng again, which was in a room on the seventh floor.The building he was in did not belong to the central area of Kabukicho. It was a typical "hive" in which many sex workers and pimps lived, and of course there were residents engaged in ordinary businesses.It is indeed easy to hide people in places where this kind of floating population accounts for the majority.

Rosie repeated the trick she had done at Jason's apartment, climbing down the roof with her bare hands.The rough walls were easy to climb, and he broke through the window, shattering the glass.

Yue Yesheng's temporary residence was very simple and crude, apparently he had fled here in a hurry, and there were not many traces of human life.Rosie immediately saw the middle-aged man lying flat on the bed, with an external device on his face, which was the lowest-end one.

The man was still immersed in the Huanhai system, but his expression was painful and tangled. He was probably delayed by Deng Huailing and couldn't leave immediately.Rosie thought of Deng Huailing, since his administrator had fought with Yue Yesheng, he was likely to be in danger. After all, compared with the original owner of the Huanhai system, the authority of outsiders was still too weak.

Yue Yesheng must be killed immediately.The bionic man walked to the side of the bed and lowered his head, resting his fingers on the opponent's fragile neck. He has mastered all the fighting skills derived from humans in the information database, and of course he knows how to make people die without pain.

Although he valued all human life and would do everything in his power to protect it, this man was not one of them.The interests of Yue Yesheng and Deng Huailing conflicted, so they were targets that should be eliminated. Without any hesitation, he made a decisive move.

However, there was a force preventing him from attacking. Rosie was surprised to find that there was an extra person beside him. The person was like a ghost. His slender and powerful fingers grabbed his wrist, and then raised his head, revealing his pair ofHis indistinguishable eyebrows and eyes:

"Don't kill him, or you'll regret it then."

"You are..." Rosie froze, it was the first time he saw himself outside of his dream.Are you dreaming again?But the scene is so coherent and real, it's not like a dream.

"You haven't guessed who I am." The other party laughed softly, let go of his hands and sat on the edge of the bed, looked up at him, with a playful light in his eyes, "Why am I so stupid when I become a bionic person?"Woolen cloth?"

"Whether you're me or not, please don't hinder the progress of the mission, Mr. Deng is still trapped in the Magic Sea system." Rosie insisted without backing down, staring at the other party.

He wanted to bypass the person in the way and get rid of Yue Yesheng, but the person suddenly got up and grabbed his collar, and slammed toward the wall, with his forearm blocking Rosie's neck, looking at him with cold eyesLie: "Is this bounty hunter that important to you?"

Rosie thought that the other party asked an unnecessary question, and the answer was as natural as objects have inertia and the earth revolves around the sun, but he still answered: "Yes, it is more important than the sum of everything."

"Have you ever thought that it's just because of the program setting that you feel this way?" The other party seemed to have heard some joke, and said dismissively, "When you are not controlled by the program—that is, when you become me, to himIt won't feel anything."

"Impossible." Rosie said almost at the same time, "Mr. Deng will always be..."

"That kid has a wicked mind," the other party interrupted indifferently, "he just wants to fuck you."

"What do you mean?" Rosie blinked and asked blankly.

"If you don't believe me, why don't you give it a try?" The man raised the corners of his lips, reached out and pinched Rosie's jaw, and slowly stroked his cheek with his fingers, "It's because of this face that he wants to get close to you and trust you.There is also a program that is always loyal to him, and it is the same with other good-looking bionics. You will never disobey him, so he can do whatever he wants to you."

"But Mr. Deng is my administrator, and he is entitled to do anything to me."

"If he dares, he will be the first one to kill when I regain control." The other party's eyes suddenly turned a little surly, and after realizing that he was angry for Deng Huailing, he covered it up again, "... Anyway, letKnow who is your true friend, and you have only been with that bounty hunter for a few months, but you have known the Yue Ye family more than ten years ago."

Rosie couldn't understand his words: "More than ten years ago? I wasn't created then."

The other party laughed dumbly, and said helplessly: "That's right, I forgot that you are a bionic person now... It doesn't matter if you don't remember it, anyway, I can still be awake for a while, and you can't kill him in front of me."

There is not much time left. Before splitting up to carry out the task, Rosie and Deng Huailing agreed on a real ten minutes, which is four hours in the Huanhai system. Every second of delay, Deng Huailing is more dangerous.He was extremely anxious, but the man in front of him was leisurely, blocking his way, and Rosie couldn't help punching him.

"Well, that's good. I didn't expect that one day I would beat myself up for a man." The other party raised his eyebrows, and caught his fist with ease. The fighting habits, strength, and angle of the two were exactly the same, and they couldn't even say they saw each other.Instead of making moves, they expected each other's next move, which made the result lose suspense.

The fight didn't last long, and Rosie was thinking how to defeat this man who was exactly like him, when suddenly the man disappeared like mist, and he found himself lying on the floor, with a dagger flashing coldly and slashing high and low,The point of the knife was inches away from piercing his throat.

It turned out that everything that happened just now was an illusion, there was no other him in the room, and he had been dazed in reality for quite a while.During this period of wandering consciousness, the door was opened, and a girl rushed in and knocked him down, stabbing a dagger hard at his neck.

Rosie raised his hand to restrain the girl and her blade. He deliberately didn't use any force, for fear of hurting the girl's slender arm.She stared at him in horror, trembling with extreme fear, and her sharp panting filled the room.Rosie stared at her for a while, combed her messy hair with her fingers, and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid."

The black hair was parted, and he noticed a tear mole under the girl's right eye. Suddenly, a name came to mind: Tsukino Yukina.

Rosie hesitated for a moment, not understanding why he remembered this name, it clearly did not exist in his cognition, but it appeared strangely, as brand new as yesterday's memory.When he was recalling, the girl tremblingly broke away from his hand, raised the knife again, and slashed down with all her courage.

"Tsukino Yukina?" Rosie asked.He didn't dodge, and let the girl draw a dagger towards his heart.

The girl paused, and stopped the knife in surprise. The tip of the knife cut through the cloth and pierced Rosie's skin shallowly, and blue blood flowed down the edge of the knife.She withdrew the knife bewilderedly, as if she wanted to hold the wound for him, but also as if she wanted to stab him again.

"You...know my name?" Yukino Yukina asked timidly, about to cry.She knew that in front of her was a hunter sent by the government to hunt down her father, and she was determined to fight him to the death, but if she was discovered easily, the end would be extremely miserable.

But he told her not to be afraid.For a moment, she couldn't guess whether the other party was truly sympathetic, or enjoying the feeling of playing with the prey in the palm of her hand.Yue Yesheng struggled on the bed, showing faint signs of awakening, she immediately rushed over, took off the external device he was wearing, and hid in his arms: "Father!"

Tsukino Katsuki woke up and sat up, his chaotic eyes fell on Rosie.

"Are you with that bounty hunter?" He asked hoarsely, predicting the end of him and his daughter with some despair: before they could escape in time, they would all be killed by this fighting android.

"I'm his partner," Rosie said.Yue Yesheng has woken up, which means that Deng Huailing is no longer in the Huanhai system. Although he doesn't know what method he used, his administrator should not be in danger now.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and wanted to say something to the father and daughter in front of him, but his eyes suddenly turned frosty, he pulled Yue Ye Xue Nai's shoulders, and pushed her to the ground——

The girl screamed, thinking she was going to die, and then a gunshot exploded violently, and the bullets pierced into the wall behind them. Only then did she realize that someone was shooting on the opposite floor, and the bionic man didn't intend to kill her by pushing her down, but protecting her.

The whole building was suddenly cut off, and in the darkness, Tsukino Yukina felt that someone was protecting her forehead, and the sticky blood dripped down, gurgling down her face like two lines of blood tears.Rosie turned off her pain module, and felt the girl in her arms shaking like chaff, so she patted her head and said softly again, "Don't be afraid."

At this moment, the bionic man made a decision.He seldom disobeyed the administrator's wishes. One can imagine how angry Deng Huailing would be when he learned that the mission had failed, but he had an extremely clear intuition, just like the person in the hallucination said, if the father and father were killedGirl, he will regret it.
