mygo, but Cthulhu

"It's simple. I'm going to negotiate with Xian Juanxin tomorrow, but to prevent her from doing anything bad to me, I need you to protect my safety in secret. If anything goes wrong, you will escort me away immediately. How about that? That should be a very good offer, right?"

Mizono Watari explained softly, and Kurata Mashiro also glanced at his pocket and asked with a puzzled expression.

"You said this piece of flesh and blood is very powerful, why don't you just use it to protect you?"

"Because I can't afford the risk of it getting out of control. Anyone who uses it in battle is either crazy or stupid, and I don't think I'm either."

Sanyuan Duguang spread his hands helplessly, but continued to persuade him in a louder voice.

"And I promise that you only need to protect me this once. As long as the negotiations are completed, regardless of whether anything unexpected happens, I will hand it over to you. If you're lucky, you can get it without any effort. I think you should have no reason to refuse, right?"

"Now that you've said that, I'm sure something unexpected will happen."

Kurata Mashiro sighed, then turned and looked at Shiraishi Chisei. They thought for a long time and finally nodded.

"But I'm afraid we have no choice but to agree to this... I hope you can keep your promise, otherwise we will take it from you even if it gets out of control."

"Don't worry, I always keep my word."

Chapter 317 Ruomai's Deal

"Yoshiki, can you help me check if my collar is neat?"

Tamate Chiyu stared at herself in the mirror for a moment, turned to look at her friend and asked softly, while Sato Masuki pursed his lips, glanced at her and nodded slightly.

"No problem, and I think you don't need to worry about this. Your aura is enough to prove your identity."

"Momentum alone is not enough. No matter how powerful a beggar is, he will still be seen as inferior to a coward in fancy clothes."

Zhu Shouzhiyou shook her head and responded calmly and softly,

"Because reality is like this. It doesn't care about your pursuits and dreams, it only cares about your strength and power... I only regret that I realized this too late. If I had learned this earlier, then Pareo might not have died."

"...Zhiyou, I hope you won't blame yourself anymore. You've changed so quickly lately that I'm even starting to feel a little strange about you."

After a moment of silence, Sato Mashiki sighed and spoke softly, turning his head to look at the city outside the window.

"And you even ordered your employees to only save paying VIPs, yet you ordered them to leave people dying on the side of the road alone. Honestly, I don't understand why. Pareo was killed by a scumbag who only cared about money, so why did you..."

"Even if Pareo hadn't been killed by that guy, as long as I remained that naive and foolish, she would definitely have died because of me... The one who killed her was that ridiculous me called Chu?"

Tamate Chiyu interrupted her softly, and Sato Masuki couldn't help but frowned. She wanted to continue to say something with disapproval, but the dark pink-haired girl

But he had already turned around. When she reached the door, he stopped, looked back at her and whispered a word.

"I'll go alone to negotiate. You, Rui, and Rikka stay here. We have ample defenses here. As long as Mygo and Mujica don't attack together, you'll be safe."

"How can this be? Ruiyi and Liuhua, who are powerless, can stay here, but I must go with you. My marksmanship can help you, definitely..."

"This isn't a request. This is my notice. From now on, you can't leave here even a step. You can only be free when I return."

Tamate Chiyu interrupted her softly with an expressionless face, then turned and walked out of the room. Sato Mashiki was stunned for a moment and wanted to chase him angrily, but was stopped at the door by the tall bodyguard.

"Ms. Sato, Miss Tamade has given us a death order. I hope you won't make things difficult for us."

"Get out of here!"

Sato Mashiki was annoyed and wanted to swing her fist, but the people standing in front of her were all top-notch soldiers that Tamade Chiyu had spent a lot of money to recruit. As soon as she raised her hand, her body was directly controlled. She tried to break free desperately but couldn't. She could only look at Tamade Chiyu's back anxiously and incomprehensibly, and roared angrily.

"Zhiyou! Tell them to let me go! I must go with you, Zhiyou!"

However, no matter how she shouted, Tamate Chiyu's steps did not hesitate at all. She ignored Masuki's voice and got directly into her private car. Sato Masuki could only helplessly watch the convoy escorting her go away, and was forcibly locked back in the house by the bodyguards.

"Let me out! Do you hear me?! Let me out!"

Sato Masuki angrily pounded the hard special door panel, but even if she shouted desperately, she could not change the reality. In the end, she could only kneel on the ground exhausted, staring at the ground in a daze.

"Yoshiki...are you okay?"

At this time, Hezo Ruiyi brought the ice pack over and applied ice to her red and swollen knuckles while asking her softly. Yimu was silent for a long time and could only sigh helplessly.

"Rui... I don't understand. I don't understand why Zhiyou has become like this. No matter how much I comfort her, she still insists that her pareo is the reason for her death... She now has a huge power, but the Chu I knew? I can't find her anymore... Why did everything turn out like this?"

"Masuki..."

Rui Yi didn't know what to say for a moment, and just as the atmosphere was about to fall silent, Asahi Rikka suddenly rushed over with a cell phone in her hand, and handed it to Masuki while panting.

"Yoshiki, take a look. Someone named Ghost suddenly sent me a message. She said she was Yutenji Wakami from Mujica."

After hearing her words, Sato Masuki was stunned for a moment and quickly took the phone. At the same time, the phone rang and the phone number displayed on it was a series of zeros.

After hesitating for a moment, Yimu touched the call and answered it, and a calm female voice soon came from the other end.

"Hello everyone from RAS, now you are all trapped in this safe cage by your friends. You want to leave here, but you are powerless, right?"

"You're right, but let's get straight to the point. There are surveillance cameras everywhere here. I'm afraid those bodyguards have already discovered us..."

"They found nothing. The surveillance footage they saw showed you all in good condition. This level of tampering is easy for me."

Ruomai interrupted her softly, his tone without any fluctuation.

"Now, I need to discuss a deal with you. Tamade Chiyu recently purchased a lot of advanced technology from Xian Juanxin. She locked the USB drive in the safe in her room. The password is the date of Pareo's death. I hope you can take it out and plug it into the computer."

"You want these technologies, right? Sure, as long as your compensation is satisfactory to us."

Sato Mashiki responded in a deep voice, and Ruomai had anticipated her request. A virtual map of the house and marked networked devices soon appeared on the phone screen.

"I can give you a chance to escape. The life monitors on your bodies are connected to the internet. I can make them send out false signals, making the bodyguards think you're dying. Then they'll rush in immediately."

"Even so, we alone can't break out of their encirclement. There are thousands of elite troops here. Even if we can leave this house, we won't be able to escape the encirclement."

"There are also automatic defense systems in the house. They can help you hold out for five minutes. In the meantime, I will take over the Sanyuan Consortium's military laboratory and control the autonomous vehicles they are tentatively producing. The small missiles carried by the vehicles can help you create a breach. Then it will depend on whether you can seize this opportunity."

Wakamai finished explaining softly, and Sato Mashiki couldn't help but blink blankly, looking at the phone in confusion.

"You can control anything connected to the internet? Even the most powerful hacker wouldn't be able to do this, right? Who are you?"

"I'm a self-aware AI, so this kind of operation isn't difficult for me... So, are you willing to agree to this deal?"

"...We'll plug the USB into the computer, but we don't need you making such a big fuss."

After thinking silently for a while, Sato Masuki sighed helplessly.

"As much as I want to accompany Zhiyou, when I calm down and think about it carefully, my fighting ability is really not worth mentioning compared to the guards around her... Even if we rush out recklessly, we may not be able to help her, and may even cause her trouble."

"so?"

"So all you need to do is send her the recording of our conversation. Although she's changed a lot, she still cares about us. Now that she knows you exist, she won't trust us to stay in this house filled with intelligent defense systems... She'll definitely rush back to see us. I've already figured out how to persuade her then."

Sato Mashiki responded calmly and softly, and Ruomai also imitated the sound of exhaling thoughtfully, with a hint of emotion in his tone.

"I understand. Because she loves you, she will come back to make sure you're safe as soon as she knows there's a threat to you. Even if she knows it's unnecessary, her emotions will still make her do it."

"Human emotions are universal, and I seem to be gaining a deeper understanding of love... Thank you for allowing me to learn this. Well, then, the deal is done."

Chapter 318: Minato Yukina's Revenge

"Let's get started now,"

After all three parties were seated, Xian Juanxin spoke calmly and softly, then turned her gaze to the man in front of her who was smiling peacefully.

"Mizono Watari, you deliberately instigated a protest against the Genmaki Group and even had your men attack my classmates, resulting in the death of one of them... How do you intend to explain this?"

"This is just a return gift, Genmakishin. Take Marina and Rinrinko's return gift as a gift for your friend."

Sanyuan Duguang smiled and explained calmly and softly, but Xianjuanxin couldn't help but frown at this time.

"So, you're just resorting to this method? I think this is actually a signal for a declaration of war, right?

If you want, I can also let my army take action directly, what do you think?"

As she spoke these words, the guards from three different parties tensed up at the same time. They watched each other and were ready to attack at any time. After a moment of silence, Zhu Shouzhiyou spoke softly with an expressionless face.

"Since we're all sitting here, I assume you two, like me, have no intention or preparation for an all-out war. We haven't even completely divided up the interests of this city yet. Isn't it a bit premature to discuss this now?"

"Yes, Miss Zhu Shou is right. I have no intention of starting a war. When those resistance organizations were wiped out by Miss Xian Juan, I did not take any further action."

Sanzono Tokou nodded slightly, but Xianjuanxin was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. She coldly threw an agreement in front of him, her voice calm and firm.

"No matter what, you're at a complete disadvantage right now. I don't have time to argue with you over such a small profit. Either sign it or go to war with me. Your choice."

"Isn't this a bit too extreme, Miss Xianjuan?"

Before Mizono Tokou could answer, Tamate Chiyu couldn't help but frown and spoke softly, turning to look at the blonde girl with a serious expression.

"Is there anything more important than the negotiations between us? The agreement should have been the result of trial and error, not such a hardline one..."

"This is my decision. Although the Trauma Team is developing rapidly, I think it still has a long way to go to catch up with the String Scroll Group. So your suggestion doesn't mean much to me."

Xian Juanxin interrupted her softly, and Zhu Shou Zhiyou pursed her lips and said nothing more. Sanyuan Duguan did not seem to be as annoyed as Xian Juanxin had expected. He did not open the agreement, but looked down at his watch. After confirming the time, he could not help but curled the corners of his mouth.

"Ms. Genjumaki, I want to ask you a question. This building is now heavily guarded by our three forces. It can be said to be the safest place in Tokyo... So, do you think we will be attacked?"

"……what do you mean?"

Xian Juanxin was silent for a moment and then slowly squeezed out a voice with extreme caution. At the same time, she quickly looked at the virtual map on her mobile phone. After discovering that the people from the Sanyuan Group did not make any moves, she couldn't help but be stunned.

And five minutes ago, the scene where Genmaki Shin whispered the word "start" was also displayed on the spell screen. Minato Yukina looked at this scene expressionlessly, and after thinking for a moment, she turned to look at Hikawa Sayo beside her.

"Saya, are you ready?"

"I'm ready here. My energy has been accumulated to the limit. I can cooperate with you in a sniper attack at any time."

Saya nodded calmly, and Minato Yukina also slowly exhaled. She felt the pain in her throat, but her eyes were fixed on Tamade Chiyu on the screen.

She and Saya were currently thirty kilometers away from the meeting place. Even if the troops were on high alert, there would be no more checks here, because ordinary weapons could not launch an attack from this distance.

Of course, if it was a conventional missile or something like that, it would be intercepted soon after launch. What Minato Yuki was going to use was the residual sound in his body. With the help of Saya, it would condense into a note that instantly crossed the distance and directly penetrated Tamade Chiyu's head.

Normally, Zhu Shou Zhiyou is always surrounded by heavy protection and shelter. Only at this moment can they determine her location, so now is the opportunity they must not miss.

"Minato Yukina, I hope you can think calmly for a moment."

But the next moment, a voice suddenly sounded. Minato Tomokina was stunned for a moment and then turned back subconsciously. At this time, Bai Lu Qiansheng had also walked out of the portal. She shook her head slightly at Tomokina, her voice full of sincere persuasion.

"Although the current order is very bad, Tokyo has regained its order after all. If you kill Tamade Chiyu now, the balance of power between companies will be broken, you will trigger a war, and many people will die."

"What does this have to do with me? I just want revenge... She killed Lisa, and I must make her pay for it."

Minato Yukina responded through gritted teeth, and Shirasagi Chisei also continued to speak seriously at this time.

"What if I say I can bring your Lisa back?"

"……What did you say?"

Minato Yukina was stunned for a moment, then opened her eyes wide in confusion. She subconsciously asked the question in a low voice, and when Shirasagi Chisei was about to explain, Hikawa Sayo's anxious voice suddenly sounded.

"Yukina, it seems that Tamade Chiyu has received some news and is now preparing to leave the negotiation venue. Her guards are ready to protect her!"

"Then do it now!"

After hesitating for a moment, Minato Yukina gritted her teeth and responded in a deep voice. She looked deeply at Shirasagi Chisei, turned around and prepared to kill Tamade Chiyu first, and then ask her about what she had just said.

"Don't……"

Bai Lu Qiansheng subconsciously wanted to stop her, but her spell was intercepted by Kurata Mashiro who suddenly appeared. She turned her head in surprise and looked at the white-haired girl, who just gave her a cold look.

"Sanzono Tokou only asked us to protect him. Since her target is Tamade Chiyu, let her go. Don't bring us hatred out of your so-called kindness. It will ruin our plan."

Bailu Qiansheng fell into hesitation, and at the same time the musical note had condensed and burst out. Under Saya's power, it flew over thirty kilometers in the blink of an eye, and then came in front of Zhute Zhiyu, expanding and about to pierce her head.

"I'm sorry, but she needs to be alive right now. I'm not ready for war yet."

But at the same time, Sanzono Tokou suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of Minato Yukina and whispered something. A tiny part of the flesh and blood in his pocket split off and flew towards Tamade Chiyu. When her head was torn open by the musical notes, it merged into the wound, causing her flesh and blood to expand rapidly, constantly repairing and offsetting the crazy cutting of the musical notes.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

At this moment, Zhu Shou Zhiyou first felt indescribable pain, and then, she seemed to see a constantly surging mouth and scarlet flesh in an instant, and the chaotic and horrible pollution covered everything about her.

Her body screamed in pain as it trembled, and her spirit was torn into countless pieces. Pursued by the pollution, the girl, covered in blood, ran desperately in her own spiritual world. She was surrounded by her memories, but now they were all swallowed up by the pollution. She was powerless to do anything about it and could only keep fleeing.

A wave of flesh and blood quickly approached her, but Zhiyou Tamade pushed open the last door before being completely swallowed up. The severe pain made her consciousness clear instantly. At the same time, the memories of music that she had deliberately forgotten flashed through her mind uncontrollably, repeating with the influence of the notes. Her former love and persistence appeared in front of her again and again, making Zhiyou open her eyes wide.

"No... please stop all this... I don't want to think about this..."

She couldn't help but tremble and sob. Her consciousness, which had remained calm even when being pursued by flesh and blood, was now easily shattered by these soft memories. She fell to her knees powerlessly and tried desperately to cover her ears, but the melodies of RAS still rushed into her mind, causing her tearful pupils to shrink to the extreme.

This was her music, the music she had vowed to devote her life to. It had been her pride, but now she felt only deep fear.

And pain... because they were all evidence of her killing Pareo.

The girl who always thought of her, the girl who always offered her beef jerky, now lay in a pool of blood. All she could do was cry helplessly and wail in agony... She hated herself, so she killed her. But why did this music that belonged to her torture her like this?!

"Stop it! Stop it! Aa ...

Chiyu Tamade could no longer bear it and screamed hysterically, and the next moment, waves of flesh and blood suddenly broke open the door. They drowned out the musical notes and assimilated and transformed them. The melody in Chiyu Tamade's ears finally disappeared, and she fell heavily to the ground exhausted. As she was about to close her eyes, a familiar head suddenly appeared in her eyes, with a brilliant smile on her face.

"Chu? Sir, are you okay?"
