Mygo, New Tokyo Black Girl

"Su Shi... have you gone to look for Xiao Xiang?"
"No!" Nagasaki Suyo quickly denied it, her voice different from usual, more sharp and flustered.
Takamatsu Deng blinked and easily determined that Nagasaki Suyo was lying.
Su Shi avoided looking away, her fingers unconsciously gripping the pillow.
And...Takamatsu Deng also felt something else from Nagasaki Suyo.
When Nagasaki Suyo was getting emotional because of Takamatsu Deng's accurate judgment, Takamatsu Deng keenly caught a hint of something strange, a fluctuation that gave people a strong sense of presence.
For Takamatsu Deng, this feeling was like the clear humming of bees' wings.
It’s a mental image!
The power of Nagasaki Suyo's mental imagery was exposed to Takamatsu Touma.
Upon realizing this conclusion, Gao Songdeng was also shocked.
However... since Nagasaki Suyo was unwilling to say more, Takamatsu Deng did not continue to ask.
Takamatsu Deng simply continued to sit on the sofa, quietly accompanying Nagasaki Suyo.
The two watched together the big news about the Harbor District fire that needed to make the front page headlines in various media outlets.
When the news broadcast was about to end, the two people's mobile phones suddenly rang with a notification sound.
Gao Songdeng immediately picked up his phone to check it.
It turned out that in the group of five people in the Lost Group, Shiina Riki was typing and speaking in the group, inviting the remaining members to go to RING's conference room to discuss the action plan.
Gao Songdeng saw this news and immediately said to Su Shi:
"Su Shi, shall we go over too?"
Then, Takamatsu Deng waited silently for Nagasaki Suyo's response.
Nagasaki Suyo took a deep breath and after hesitating for a while, she agreed to Takamatsu Deng's request.
Nagasaki Suyo stood up, collected herself, and said softly, "Let's go, Xiao Deng."
Rebellious Doll: Chapter 136: Following the Clues
Chihaya Aine came to RING's meeting room with curiosity.
Not long after the Lost Group raided the Tendo Society's industrial park and seized the serum, Shiina Riki unexpectedly made a new reunion request so quickly.
Chihaya Aine walked into the meeting room and saw that the other members of the Lost Group had all arrived. She waved and greeted the four of them:
"Hi, Tokyo Aine is here!"
Looking around, Chihaya Aine found that the atmosphere in the conference room was actually quite solemn.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? What's going on?" Although Chihaya Aine had expected that this gathering would be just an ordinary party, but looking at the faces of her companions, she was afraid that this time there might be some big commotion.
This time, the person sitting in the conference room and giving the main lecture was Tatsuki Shiina.
Since it was Shiina Riki who invited everyone to the gathering, it was natural for her to preside over this meeting.
Shiina Riki nodded to Chihaya Aine, who arrived at the meeting room last. After Chihaya Aine pulled out a chair and sat down, Shiina Riki began to talk about the content of this meeting.
"This time it's mainly about Lenna." Shiina Riki started the topic concisely and directly.
"As everyone knows, Le Na was a member of the Ninja Organization before, and she has been investigating things related to her grandmother."
The other four members of the Lost Group knew a little more about this matter. After all, Yaro Nai had mentioned these things when he was talking about the serum of the Tendo Society with the members of the Lost Group before.
Including the source of Lenai's mental image, Lenai's [Unbound Arrow] was also successfully awakened after her grandmother injected her with the serum.
"Are there any new clues in the matter that Lenai wants to investigate?" Chihaya Aine asked directly.
Whenever he has free time, Lenai usually wanders around New Tokyo, looking for clues about the destruction of "space".
"Yeah." Shiina Riki turned to look at Kaname Rakuna, indicating that she should tell about what happened in the port area of New Tokyo.
Afterwards, Kaname briefly recounted to his companions how he had encountered and fought with a master-level ninja with superb skills who came from nowhere in the harbor area.
Kaname Lenai not only encountered a ninja in the Harbor District but also a ninja that was quite rare in the entire New Tokyo. This incident also had an important premise, that is, Kaname Lenai met this ninja with unknown purpose when he went to the Harbor District after obtaining relevant clues.
"Harbor District?" Chihaya Aine, who was most concerned about current affairs in the Lost Group, responded immediately.
"Isn't that the place that's on fire now?" Chihaya Aine raised her eyebrows, and the chaotic scene in the harbor area that she had seen in various media and the unresolved fire crisis emerged in her mind.
Amidst the overwhelming coverage, the misalignment and failure of the harbor district fire protection system and related fire departments, municipal personnel, public service departments, and insurance companies are always emphasized.
Even someone like Chihaya Aine, who doesn't have a strong sense of morality, can feel the absurdity and sadness of such bizarre natural and man-made disasters.
Chihaya Aine unconsciously began to construct a picture of the harbor area in her mind, imagining the chaos and crisis there.
"Um, so we're going to go to the harbor area and help people with vacant houses collect their unwanted belongings?"
Chihaya Aine proposed a course of action that was not very reliable.
In theory, the owners of fire-damaged homes in the Harbor District wouldn't be too eager to abandon their belongings.
However, there is a long-standing phrase called "taking advantage of the fire to rob", and combined with the very popular modern "zero-dollar shopping" activity in New Tokyo, some New Tokyo citizens are indeed more keen to go to the scene of the fire to help the homeowners to rescue the valuables left in the house.
Of course, the property obtained through this kind of "rescue" will definitely not be returned to the original owner at this time.
Perhaps those items can be quickly sold at a relatively low price in various second-hand markets or material recycling points in New Tokyo.
Of course, the money from the sale will naturally be used as compensation for the hard work of the enthusiastic people who rescued the property.
"Hmm, it doesn't seem to work..." Chihaya Aine immediately realized that this action plan was not particularly appropriate.
After all, the news reports have been public for a long time now, and the valuables that are easily accessible at the fire scene have probably been cleaned up by volunteers.
As for the remaining things, you will probably have to risk being roasted by the flames by going deep into the fire to get them, and the only things left are metal products that are not easily destroyed by fire.
"How about we sell fire-fighting equipment? After all, this is what this place lacks most right now." Chihaya Aine made another relatively practical suggestion.
"What's going on?" Shiina Riki glared at Chihaya Aine. Aine was still making jokes at this time.
"The key point is that we have to investigate the hidden information behind the fire in the harbor area, okay?" Shiina Riki explained helplessly.
"Ahaha, I was just joking." Chihaya Aine smiled embarrassedly, realizing that she had gone too far in her joke.
"Then where do we start?" Chihaya Aine gathered her thoughts and said, "Those insurance companies that withdrew their coverage during the disaster?"
This idea coincides with Shiina Riki's thinking. Before this fire, the insurance company in the harbor area had already withdrawn the fire insurance of many local residents in advance by creating defaults.
Perhaps this is a viable line of inquiry?
Shiina Riki nodded in agreement.
Li Xi said: "They usually keep a lot of details in the insurance contract, and may even know some abnormal conditions before the fire."
In this case, if we continue investigating those abnormal situations, we may be able to uncover the truth behind this disaster. Combined with the clues about "space" that Lena already has, we should be able to locate more information and find out more about the truth behind the ninja organization.
"Isn't it... a bit too complicated?" Takamatsu Deng, who had been listening silently, spoke at this time.
"Investigating in this direction seems a bit like... peeling back the layers of an onion. In the end, we might not find anything."
After all, the things hidden behind the "Harbor District Fire" incident may not necessarily have any inevitable connection with the destruction of "space".
Rebellious Dolls: Chapter 137: Hot Land
"Dengdeng, you're wrong to say that!" Chihaya Aine directly pointed out that although Takamatsu Deng's concerns were not unreasonable, they did not have much significance for the direction of the Lost Group's actions.
"Now that no one has any substantial clues about the matter Lenai wants to investigate, having this line of inquiry is already quite good. What other options are there?"
"And... Lenai won't miss any possible clues, right?" Chihaya Aine turned to Lenai and asked.
"Yeah." Yao Le Nai agreed softly and nodded slightly. It had always been Yao Le Nai's long-cherished wish to investigate the demise of the "space" organization and the news about her grandmother who had disappeared without a trace.
Regardless of whether the so-called "clues" can truly reveal the truth of the entire incident, or just reveal a corner of the curtain behind the incident, Yaro Nai will not give up investigating.
Even if it is proven that the investigation into the Harbor District incident was a futile effort after everything is settled, Lenai will definitely not give up easily when there is no hope of finding out what he has been pursuing.
Even if all his companions do not support Yao Lenai, Yao Lenai intends to investigate all the people and things related to it on his own.
What's more, how could the other four members of the Lost Group allow Le Nai to get involved alone in the harbor area with its complicated interests and endless mysteries?
That fire in the harbor area, I wonder how many people’s hearts have been burned at this moment?
How many people intend to take advantage of this chaos to gain benefits?
Oh, just the betting odds about how many acres of land would be affected by this fire suddenly popped up like mushrooms overnight.
Many people in other areas of New Tokyo or even in the local harbor area are waiting for this opportunity to make a fortune from the disaster!
This is a feast that can tempt the appetite of countless people.
Chaos is the ladder for ambitious people to climb up. There is never a shortage of greedy vultures and hyenas that feed on corpses and carrion in New Tokyo!
Although the specific action plan that the Lost Group wants to use to investigate the events behind the fire in the Harbor District still needs to be considered in the long term, even from the perspective of being the most dynamic gang society group in New Tokyo, it is naturally impossible for the Lost Group to miss such a major event that has attracted great attention from the entire society.
However, Takamatsu Deng's question actually makes some sense. After all, the clues that Lenai has only point to a geographical location like the harbor area.
"Anyway, let's go to the harbor area together to investigate first?" Chihaya Aine suggested to her companions.
On this issue, the five members of the Lost Child Group reached a consensus.
Compared to the various forces competing for interests in the harbor area, such as insurance companies and private fire brigades, which have their own interests, it is more appropriate to start with an on-site investigation of the actual situation of that scorching land.
After all, when Lenai was investigating before, he encountered a ninja and fought with it and was injured. He was forced to give up the investigation and return to Toshima District.
Now the five members of the Lost Group are heading to the harbor area to investigate not only for safety reasons, but they may also find new information that Yoru Nai was unable to continue investigating because of his previous battle with the old ninja.
Finally, at this moment, Nagasaki Suyo, who had not participated in the action plan discussion at this meeting, spoke up: "Since everyone agrees, let's set off as soon as possible... Also, I have something I want to tell you."
At this time, the three people in the lost group except Takamatsu Deng turned their eyes to her, waiting for her next words.
Nagasaki Suyo paused for a moment, then spoke calmly, as if discussing something quite ordinary:
"My mind image awakening is also complete."
"Huh?!" Shiina Riki reacted most strongly, while Chihaya Aine and Kaname Rakuna also widened their eyes slightly. Nagasaki Suyo's eyes revealed a firmness, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.
Chihaya Aine was genuinely happy that Nagasaki Suyo was also able to gain the power of mind imagery, while Kaname Rakuna nodded thoughtfully.
As for Shiina Riki, she also looks pretty normal.
"It's pretty good..." Shiina Riki said with emotion.
Nagasaki Suyo briefly described to several teammates in the Lost Group some of the things she could do after obtaining the mind image [Heart Rain Wheel Talisman], such as using the power of mind image to impact the enemy's mind to form a mental loophole and control people.
There are also applications such as using some psychological principles to stimulate mental images to make the other party unconsciously ignore Nagasaki Soyo's presence under appropriate conditions.
"How magical!" Chihaya Aine exclaimed. When these mental imagery abilities of Nagasaki Motoyo are used, they can satisfy all people's imaginations of the profession of "hypnotist", which is often shrouded in mystery.
Girls like Chihaya Aine, who are good at magic skills and always consider themselves a magician, are particularly fond of Nagasaki Soyo's unique ability of mental imagery.
Then again, words like "magician" and "hypnotist" sound like they belong to people working in some circus with fantasy elements.
Now that the decision had been made, the five members of the Lost Group immediately packed up their equipment and prepared to head to the harbor area.
The five members of the Lost Group rode in a heavily armored car driven by Nagasaki Motoyo and drove along the road towards the harbor area.
Outside the car window, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the ground, casting a golden red light and shadow.
As the vehicle gradually approached the harbor area, the clouds in the sky were gradually replaced by billowing black smoke.
The brilliant sunlight dimmed, and was replaced by a violent, blood-red flame that shone on everyone's faces.
The trees on the side of the road were swaying like ghosts in the firelight.
it's very windy.
The wind howled, carrying with it the crackling sound of flames burning through buildings.
The outskirts of the harbor district are in ruins, with rubble and charred marks covering the ground among the broken walls.
There are ashes everywhere and smoke everywhere.
There were even electric poles that were burned down by the fire and blown directly into the air by the strong wind.
At first glance, it looked like an aerial cross with fire at its base.
What a beautiful harbor area.
It looked like a doomsday scene where the world was destroyed by fire from heaven.
Even though the five members of the Lost Group were experienced gang members who had experienced life-and-death battles, they were still quite shocked by the scene of the entire city turning into a red-hot place with wind and fire.
