The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

In fact, even the others had not received any news before this.

But compared to the two people who already knew some of the truth, their attitude seemed a little indifferent.

Before they could think about it, the door of the room was opened from the outside, and He Xiu Jishi, wearing a white director's uniform and a crimson bow tie, walked in.

Everyone stood up from their seats in unison, clenched their right fists, placed their forearms horizontally below their chests, and saluted.

It's just different from the previous respect that came from the heart.

At this moment, the looks that Shinohara Yukinori and Marutesai showed towards the white figure also became somewhat complicated.

Without noticing the subtle looks from the two, after looking around, He Xiuji said calmly:

"It seems that everyone except Arima has arrived? Then the special meeting will begin now--"

Not much was said about Arima Takamasa's pigeon behavior.

Following He Xiu Jishi's order, the large screen above everyone's heads and the slanted display in front of them lit up at the same time.

What appeared before everyone was a distribution map of Tokyo's 23 wards, but the Tokyo Bay area was highlighted.

"As you all know, four months ago, the Bronze Tree took over District 11 with great force, and then used it as the center to unify the ghouls in other districts."

"The first direct battle with CCG was the campaign against the Tsukiyama family three months ago. According to our interrogation of Tsukiyama Kanmu, it was she who spent a large sum of money to hire Bronze Tree."

"After being silent for a while, the Bronze Tree attacked Kuquelia, released all the ghouls and Amazons inside, and committed the unforgivable crime of slaughtering all 214 employees inside."

"And after the addition of Kukuelia's ghouls and Red Superman, the power of the Bronze Tree has expanded unprecedentedly, and now it has seriously threatened the safety of the citizens..."

While listing the heinous crimes of Bronze Tree one by one, Watsukichi did not notice the clenched fists of Shinohara Yukinori and Marutesai.

The sins of the Bronze Tree are undeniable, but the ones who truly killed everyone inside were you, the V Organization in your hands, and Xiu Jishi!

But now is not the time to attack, we still have to be patient...

"According to the intelligence we received, the leader of the Bronze Tree has changed from Owl to Red Superman. This is also the reason why their action patterns are so different before and after."

"We don't know what kind of fight took place between them, but unfortunately, the ideal situation where two tigers fight and one of them is injured did not happen."

"After the change of leaders, we don't know what their purpose is, but the crimes of Bronze Tree, Owl and Red Superman are already too numerous to list."

"Now, the base of the bronze tree has been found - the "Ryujima" in Tokyo Bay!"

He sternly accused the Bronze Tree of its crimes, and at this time a part of the map lit up in time, turning a glaring blood red.

The location is Liudao.

As he finished speaking, the expressions of the people present varied, some frowned, some breathed a sigh of relief.

There is no doubt that what awaits them next is bound to be a tough battle.

Neither the One-Eyed Owl nor the Red Superman are targets that can be easily controlled, and it is almost certain that there will be huge casualties in this battle.

Anura Kiyoko frowned and said, "But forgive me for being blunt, Director Shu. There are many people who support Bronze Tree among the people. In addition, the former Prime Minister was assassinated. If we attack Bronze Tree at this time, I am afraid there will be a lot of public opinion that is unfavorable to us."

"Lady An Pu, that's why we need to get rid of the bronze tree as soon as possible~"

With a long tail tone, without waiting for Shuji to speak, Tanakamaru Motomoto said.

Kazuki Shu nodded calmly, agreeing with Tanaka Maru Motomoto's statement.

"As Wang Yuan said, if we continue, no one knows what will happen. The best way is to act decisively."

Then he turned to look at the silent Marutesai: "Amaru, what do you think?"

"Eh? Me?"

"Well, I noticed that you looked unhappy during the meeting. Have you thought of any problem?"

"No, this is not really a problem..."

He scratched his head, his vision a little erratic, but in order to prevent the other party from noticing the flaw, he still asked a question casually.

"I just wonder... Could Liudao be a trap set by the Bronze Tree?"

His words made the others frown.

It must be admitted that although this idea is a bit pessimistic, it is indeed not impossible.

Liudao itself is a small island, and you must take a boat or helicopter to go there or leave.

Therefore, if this really is a trap, it would be difficult for them to escape unscathed.

only.....

"Please rest assured about this. I have already sent someone to investigate and confirmed that the news is true."

What he said to Xiu Jishi dispelled other people's concerns.

In fact, he was also surprised after receiving the news from Mustard Seed. He asked the other party to send someone to confirm it again, and then hurriedly convened a special meeting.

To him, the bronze tree now was obviously no longer the enemy that he used to support and protect himself.

Instead, he is a traitor who has the ability to drag the Xiu family to hell together!

Although this can be quite small, it is better to reduce it to zero if possible.

"Does anyone have any other questions or suggestions?"

Looking around, everyone present shook their heads.

"Then I will form a force directly under my command later to specifically defeat Owl and Red Superman."

"Considering the importance of this operation, we may have to deal with Owl and Red Superman at the same time. In order to make up for the shortage of manpower, CCG will also activate the previously suspended Sigma plan."

"Our hunting targets are Owl, Red Superman and Bronze Tree!"

"There is only one goal—"

As Kazushige opened his eyes, calm but murderous words came out of his mouth.

"Destroy them all!"

At this point, the prelude to the Ryukyu Island Battle, with everyone's own ulterior motives, begins...

Chapter 139: Zhenhu Wuxu Returns to the Battlefield...Failed

From the moment the Ryujima Operation was confirmed, a gloomy atmosphere enveloped the CCG headquarters and its various branches.

Almost everyone had an expression of deep sorrow on their face.

CCG attaches great importance to the upcoming Ryudo Battle.

Except for a small number of investigators who were left to barely maintain order, almost all the combat forces were put into it.

And there is only one thing these investigators have to face first.

——Suicide note.

Something common in movies and TV shows.

Frankly speaking, most investigators are familiar with this thing, after all, it is not the first time they have written about it.

Many people had already written about it once before, during the campaign against the Tsukiyama clan.

But unfortunately, those who only write once will often never have the chance to write a second time.

Although being an investigator is a job that requires one's head to be on the line, how many people can remain calm in the face of death?

Moreover, the nature of this operation is very different from the recent campaign against the Tsukiyama family.

Although the Yueshan family is a century-old family, they are still just merchants after all.

Although he has a large number of ghouls under his command, they are, after all, just a bunch of office workers and not very threatening.

If it weren't for Qingtongshu's later intervention, it might have become an example of the largest case solved with the least casualties in the past half century.

But now, they have to face the bronze tree.

One-eyed Owl.....Red Superman.....

The casualties caused by the first and second Xiao crusades ten years ago are still vivid in people's minds, and have become an indelible shadow for many people.

Although the latter did not cause too many casualties, the terrible damage it caused in Kuquelia cannot be underestimated.

What’s worse is that two SSS-level people in the world are gathered together at the same time.

There is no doubt that what awaits them next is an extremely arduous and even life-threatening battle.

After realizing this, I felt depressed wherever I went.

Almost all the investigators sitting in the office remained silent.

Even though today is a workday and there is a lot of work to do, most people just sit at their desks in silence and stare blankly.

No one would blame them.

On the desks of the people in charge of each branch, written suicide notes were neatly placed there.

There are many tear marks formed by tears dripping on them and then drying them...

But again - no one would blame them.

However, mixed in with the suicide note placed in front of Yukinori Shinohara was a different kind of...petition.

Although I don't mean to be disparaging, in this situation, most people would be happy just to be chosen to stay and avoid going to the front line.

What idiot would do something that is tantamount to committing suicide?

Unless there is some deep hatred.

Looking at the petition in front of him and the person standing in front of him with his eyes almost popping out, Shinohara Yukinori felt a headache.

"Mado, you should know that no matter how many times you come, I will never agree."

He sighed and pushed the petition back on the table.

This was the nth time the other party had contacted him today.

Frankly speaking, he was naturally very happy to see his friend who had been in a coma for many days wake up.

But as soon as he woke up, he wanted to go to the front line, which made him very worried.

"Shinohara..."

"Don't talk about it. Everything else is fine, but this is the only thing that cannot be discussed."

He rejected the other party's request in an unquestionable tone.

To a certain extent, he understood why the other party made such a choice.

After the tragic death of his wife Mado Wei, his daughter Mado Akira became his only support.

As his partner and disciple, Kotaro Amon is his most promising junior and is regarded as his successor.

But now, both of them were "killed in battle" in Kuquelia.

No one can accept the blow of waking up and losing everything they cherish.

It just so happens that the one who did it was the same person—the One-Eyed Owl...and Superman Red.

New and old grudges come together, no one can bear it!

But no means no.

He shook his head, looked at the crutches in front of him, and said seriously:

"I understand how you feel, Mado, but the doctor should have told you about your medical condition before you were discharged."

"You are now out of breath even with just ordinary exercise, let alone fighting."

This is also the fundamental reason why he rejected the other party.

After all, no matter how strong an investigator is, muscle atrophy is inevitable after being in bed and in a coma for three months.

——Letting him go to the battlefield in this state would simply be a suicide mission and would even be a burden to others.

Although it is not impossible to recover, it will take time.

But as mortal humans, no matter how hard we try, it is impossible to recover before the final battle.

Just when he was still thinking about how to refuse the other party, he saw that the much thinner Zhenhu Wuxu directly threw the crutches in his hand aside.
