Knight Asylum

This is just theory after all.

Undead beasts cannot coexist, and rejecting the characteristics and existence of other undead beasts is an iron rule engraved in their DNA. The civilization they will nurture will never allow the existence of other undead beasts' characteristics.

And plundering the golden fruit and allowing the undead beast to possess the characteristics of other undead beasts is itself a bug.

The result of a bug is often a computer crash with no way out.

But Red himself was stuck with another bug.

Red is able to withstand the taboos brought by the golden fruit, occupy the position of the ancestor of the undead beast, allow the corresponding undead beast to evolve, and gain self.

If it were Red, he might really be able to absorb all the characteristics of the undead beasts.

But, what exactly caused this?

Kiryu Battle Rabbit has a very ominous premonition. This is not a trait that Red was born with, but an accident planned by someone at a certain moment that gave Red this trait.

And that person's plan is proceeding very smoothly. It has now taken root and is about to bear fruit.

This ominous premonition made Kiryu Sento feel terrible. He had analyzed Red's blood inside and out dozens of times.

But he couldn't find any clues or evidence.

"So, the focus now is to contain all the undead beasts. As long as we ensure that all the undead beasts and the corresponding golden fruits still exist and are not concentrated in the body of a certain person, the final golden fruit will not come. For us, this is enough," Kiryu Battle Rabbit shook his head and said slowly.

"Then we'd better get rid of those people from Meteor Academy as soon as possible," said Dao Keji. "That person is called Masato Kusaga, right? I met him. Although I defeated him temporarily, I can feel that he is now obsessed with the golden fruit of the undead beast."

Da Dao Keji narrowed his eyes slightly.

"It's a big threat. If left unchecked, there will be a big mess."

Red scratched his face, somewhat helplessly, "I know that too. It's just right. Since Battle Rabbit has analyzed the belt, it's time to ask Mr. Nishida out."

Red exhaled and slapped his face hard.

"Other high-level undead beasts are also taking action. They may have become the target of other high-level undead beasts."

Chapter 1125 Death Again

Kiyotaka Nishida is dead.

Reid and Sonoda Mari arrived at the agreed location an hour early, but after waiting for three hours, Nishida Kiyotaka still did not show up.

At first, Sonoda Mari and Red thought that after thinking it over, Nishida Kiyotaka decided not to contact them. However, as a teacher at Meteoric Academy, Nishida Kiyotaka was trusted by everyone and trusted everyone. Even if he decided not to come, he would definitely not not reply to a single message.

Then Reid and Sonoda Mari found the body of Nishida Kiyotaka, lying in the grass, his finger pointing towards the agreed meeting place, but his body was already cold.

Mari Sonoda could not bear the blow that the teacher who had taken care of her since she was a child had died. She knelt on the ground, hugged Kiyotaka Nishida's body and sobbed softly.

"Condolences——"

Reid leaned over and held Mari Sonoda's shoulders, giving a wry smile.

As a teacher at Ryuseijuku, Nishida Kiyotaka has probably also used the power of the belt.

But Red still had some hope.

What if Kiyotaka Nishida didn't use the belt?

But the result is often realistic. As a teacher trusted by the students of Meteoric Academy, how could Nishida Kiyotaka stand aside and watch his students use belts to fight undead beasts?

Therefore, the content of non-human cells in Nishida Kiyotaka's body is much higher than that in Mihara.

Reid hugged the sobbing Mari Sonoda into his arms and gently patted her back with his right hand. While waiting for Mari Sonoda to calm down, he also began to think.

This is already the second time.

Red wasn't going to wait until the third time to think this was abnormal.

Meteor Academy knows that they are in a very dangerous situation, so they will pay attention to the surrounding situation when they go out and will not act rashly.

When Red thought of the sinister look that Masato Soka sometimes revealed and his obsession with Mari Sonoda, he subconsciously suspected that it was Masato Soka who did it.

But Reid was not so arbitrary in finalizing the facts.

There are too many reasons why Ryusei Juku is being targeted right now.

The fact that they were hunting down the undead beast and had successfully obtained its golden fruit was enough to bring disaster upon themselves.

Montana, who provided the belt to Meteor Academy, is not a kind person. He might treat Meteor Academy as a leek. When the time comes, Montana may reap the harvest of Meteor Academy.

"Red, the one who did it, could it be..."

Mari Sonoda clutched Reid's clothes at the collar.

"Don't think too much, it will be fine," Reid hugged Sonoda Mari's petite body tightly, "There are still many things that are uncertain, but one thing is certain, someone is eyeing the lives of Meteor Academy members, and we can't let them interfere in the matter of the Golden Fruit."

Sonoda Mari pursed her lips and made up her mind, "Red, why don't you ask Da Dao to tie them all up."

Reid was startled and looked down in surprise to meet Sonoda Mari's slightly red eyes.

"It's better than dying inexplicably. When everything is over, they will definitely understand."

"This... Truth, I understand your idea, but Truth, think carefully. Your companions don't trust us right now, and they still have considerable power. They also know that they are being targeted, and they are not acting together. Even if you are self-restrained, it is impossible to capture all your companions in one go."

Reid raised his hands, held Mari Sonoda's face, and pulled it to both sides.

"If we still act, we might be able to catch one or two, but the others will hide deeper. What if the people who killed Mihara and Nishida take advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters, eliminate other Meteor Academy members, and frame us? What should we do?"

Sonoda Mari blinked and nodded thoughtfully, "Then what should we do?"

"Make an appointment with another person!"

"..."

"Don't make that expression."

Seeing that Mari Sonoda looked timid, Red was helpless and started to knead Mari Sonoda's slightly chubby round face like kneading dough.

"Your phone is not a Death Note. It's impossible for anyone to die if you send a message to it. But one thing is certain, someone is tracking your text messages. He received your text messages earlier and ambushed you."

"...I think it's very likely that it was Soka," Sonoda Mari stammered, mumbling in disappointment, "He is the biggest suspect."

"Although he is the biggest suspect, we have no way to prove it now, so we should be more prepared this time. Let's go to the location first and then make an appointment with people!" Reid was also a little embarrassed.

As of now, Masato Soka is the most suspicious, and... given Masato Soka's obsession with Mari Sonoda, it doesn't seem strange that he would monitor Mari Sonoda's text messages.

"Anyway, go back and let Zhantu and the others check your phone, and think about who you should date this time."

"it is good--"

Mari Sonoda nodded. Although she cheered up a little, her overall mood was still very low.

Back at the laboratory, without Red having to explain the situation, everyone present guessed the answer the moment they saw Sonoda Mari's expression.

“Hey, hey, hey—is this true? Hey—” I, Wanzhanglong, covered my mouth and exclaimed, “This doesn’t seem like something that happens occasionally.”

"Sento, please check Mari's phone. Maybe someone is tracking Mari's text messages," Reid smiled bitterly and raised his hand to hand Sonoda Mari's phone to Kiryu Sento.

Kiryuu Sento raised his eyebrows slightly, "I understand, leave it to me."

After saying that, Kiryu Battle Rabbit took the phone and turned around to connect it to the data cable.

At this moment, Sonoda Mari suddenly blushed as if she remembered something, and rubbed her hands together nervously.

"Um - there are some places that you can't look at, like the logs and stuff..."

Kiryu Sento blinked and looked at Red subconsciously. Sonoda Mari's face suddenly turned redder and she raised her hand to cover Red's face, fearing that Red would pass on information to Kiryu Sento.

"I see. We respect privacy here," Kiryuu Sento smiled.

Sonoda Mari breathed a sigh of relief.

"I don't think there's anything shameful in your journal," Red complained.

"No! How could there be something shameful!" Sonoda Mari immediately waved her hands in panic.

"Yeah?"

"really!"

……

The man was wearing a brown windbreaker, walking on the street, looking around blankly.

"who am I?"

"where am I?"

"What should I do next?"

The man held his forehead and shook his head vigorously, then tilted his head to look at the glass on the side.

An illusory figure was reflected in the glass.

It seemed to be him, but he couldn't get any sense of familiarity from that face at all, he just felt it was extremely strange.

He had been awake for several hours, but his mind was still full of doubts.

"What on earth am I..."

"Ah—it's the savior of mankind!"

The little girl's surprised call came from behind the man.

The man was stunned and turned his head to look over. The little girl was pointing in his direction excitedly.

"I am... the savior of mankind?"

Chapter 1126 Aikawa Hajime

The man sat on the sofa. Although his expression was natural, his movements were extremely stiff. The awkward reaction made the little girl's mother very embarrassed. She kept pinching the little girl's right hand under the table, hoping that her daughter could calm down.

The man looked exactly like U, the supreme commander of Selvi Turria who often appeared in the news and was known as the savior of mankind.

But they just look exactly the same.

U always has a hunched back, dark circles under his eyes that seem to never go away, and fatigue that is visibly visible to the naked eye. His face is like a mask, and no emotion can be seen from it.

The man in front of him had the exact same face, but his body was straight and he looked very healthy. Although he had no expression on his face, he seemed to just not understand emotions and sometimes had a confused look on his face.

It's a pity that the little girl completely ignored her mother's hints and reminders, and still excitedly pulled the man's hand and asked questions. Even if the man directly answered that he didn't know, the little girl would not be disappointed, and would even show an understanding expression that "this is a matter concerning all mankind after all, it must not be said."

"Oh, by the way, my name is Tianyin! Kurihara Tianyin! What's your real name? Please - I won't tell anyone!" The little girl clasped her hands together.

"Tianyin! This is not okay no matter how you put it."

This time the mother couldn't help it and raised her voice a little. Kurihara Tianyin also realized that she had gone too far. She stuck out her tongue and sat back, but still muttered unwillingly in a low voice.

"I'm just curious about something that the whole world is curious about."

"I'm sorry, my daughter has caused you trouble," the mother patted the little girl's head helplessly and bent down towards the man.

"No - I'm not bothered," the man shook his head, "I'm sorry, I'm probably not the person you know, and I don't know who I am."

"Hey - have you lost your memory?" Kurihara Tianyin covered her mouth and exclaimed, "You must have encountered an attack while protecting the world! Mom! Let's send him to Selvi Tulia quickly!"

The mother poked Kurihara Tianyin's head helplessly, "Tianyin, this is impossible."

"Hmph - Sylvie Tulia is not a terrorist. They protected so many people! It's just some bad guys who are slandering them!" Kurihara Tianyin crossed her arms and muttered in dissatisfaction, "I saw that big brother remember to protect the streets during the battle. He is not a terrorist!"

"Sylvie Tullia...?"

The man covered his forehead and shook his head from side to side, then felt in his pocket, pulled out a wallet and flipped through it.

This was what he had put in his pocket when he woke up, but he instinctively didn't want to touch it, as if there was something dangerous hidden in it that would make him no longer like himself.

But it is not a good idea to keep avoiding it.

At this moment, a business card slipped out. The man hesitated and did not touch it. This also gave Kurihara Tianyin an opportunity. Kurihara Tianyin picked up the business card directly despite her mother's obstruction.

"Eh... Aikawa Hajime? Hajime? Is that your name? And your occupation is, a photographer?"

The man was stunned. For some reason, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't hate the name at all.

"Aren't you U?" Kurihara Tianyin lay on the table like a deflated balloon, exhaled a long breath, and swayed her calves gently back and forth.

"That's right~"

"I'm sorry, my daughter is always like this," the mother said helplessly.

"No, it's okay—"

The man turned his head, and the glass cabinet reflected his face at the moment.

Maybe it was because of the name, but he suddenly felt that this face was not so strange and uncomfortable.

"Beginning... huh? My name is probably Aikawa Hajime."
