Dragon Raja: I practiced Naruto ninjutsu next to Lu Mingfei.

The long street was blocked off, and medical staff carried out one body after another from inside; there were no living people, only dead ones.

Reporters have indicated that the death toll exceeds one hundred, and further casualty reports are still being verified. However, many people appear to have been drugged and passed out. Further details are pending from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Gu Ran's shadow clone was stunned after reading the news. It wasn't until the cars behind him kept honking that he came to his senses and started driving.

Zhang Qiong also noticed the news and asked Gu Ran, "Did you do this?"

Her expression was somewhat displeased. Hybrids should avoid causing injuries or deaths to ordinary people as much as possible and should pay attention to their public impact; this is a consensus in the entire underworld.

Although Zhang Qiong had just finished off those who might become Deadpool on the street, she knew that the place had been sealed off and ordinary people had been dispersed by the other side, which is why she did it.

Tang Shishi also used her powers of speech on the street, but it was raining at the time, and it's normal for there to be thunder in the rain, so no one would associate it with superpowers.

Although Zhang Qiong usually acts somewhat recklessly, the fact that she caused the deaths and injuries of more than a hundred ordinary people at once was too sensational.

If a place experiences an accident that results in the deaths of hundreds of people for no apparent reason, it will make international news.

“Those people are definitely bad people, not good people. Gu Ran wouldn’t kill people randomly,” Su Xiaoqiang said, speaking up for her fiancé.

"Do you think we're all born killers?" The shadow clone took a deep breath to calm himself down. "I originally only planned to have Lu Mingfei retreat. The person who did this was most likely Erii. She must have been frightened at the time, otherwise she wouldn't have acted unless absolutely necessary."

After listening, Zhang Qiong pondered for a moment. She also believed that her son was sensible and wouldn't do such a thing.

The shadow clone, somewhat annoyed, stepped on the gas, and the modified Civic sped through the traffic.

He couldn't understand how such a thing could have happened.

Mingming had clearly prepared beforehand and had already thrown a bag of guns to Lu Mingfei for self-defense.

Didn't Lu Mingfei notice the bag of guns?

Gu Ran had used that gun holster at Mambo Internet Cafe, and Lu Mingfei had seen it before. The holster contained UZIs that could be used with one hand and were quite lethal.

Considering that Lu Mingfei might not dare to kill, he was equipped with Frigga bullets, and a note was left indicating that they were Frigga bullets, so that he could use them without worry.

Gu Ran equipped him with a full three hundred rounds of Frigga ammunition, which was more than enough for him to deal with the group of bikers, given his shooting skills.

Could it be that some other unexpected event has occurred?

"I'll leave you here. I need to go see what's wrong." The shadow clone parked the car at a highway rest stop.

He said goodbye to the two of them.

"Be careful," Zhang Qiong and Su Xiaoqiang said at the same time.

"Don't worry, everything is still under control." The shadow clone waved goodbye to the two. After the car left, he found a secluded spot, dispelled the shadow clone, and returned all the collected information to his main body.

Gu Ran's true form was having a late-night snack at a ramen restaurant in Saitama Prefecture.

He brought Zhou Xinqing and Tang Shishi here and had the Liu family pick them up.

Even before setting off today, Gu Ran had Zhang Qiong and the others pack their luggage so they could leave amidst the chaos. Genjiro and Tachibana Masamune were too preoccupied with Erii's affairs to bother looking for them.

As things drew to a close, they could no longer remain in Tokyo. Once they were in a safe place, Gu Ran could act more freely.

A light rain was falling in Saitama. It was strange that the rain that was falling all the time in Japan was like this. It had been pouring rain in the Tokyo area, but as soon as we drove away from Tokyo, the rain gradually subsided.

When we arrived in Saitama Prefecture, it was just drizzling, unlike the torrential rain in Tokyo that kept falling.

The information from the shadow clone was then relayed back to the main body. Gu Ran frowned slightly, then took out his phone to browse the news online.

His previous driving route avoided the city center and kept driving in the suburbs, so he didn't notice this.

The information online is more comprehensive, including videos taken by individuals and news reports. On the long street, modified motorcycles are burning, and videos taken by individuals can also show human tissue scattered all over the ground.

Gu Ran only watched two-thirds of the video before it was blocked and taken down.

It seems that Princess Kaguya is trying to mitigate the impact on the internet.

However, the mainstream news media did not delete the reports about Princess Kaguya. These interviews and reports were strictly controlled by the Snake Clan, with every word being reviewed and the interviewees being controlled by the Snake Clan.

In the interview footage, a reporter asks a surviving survivor, "How exactly did this happen?"

The survivor had a broken leg, but thankfully he didn't die. He stammered on the stretcher, "It was speeding, we were speeding, and it caused a serious traffic accident..."

After saying that, the thug kept looking outwards. If he wasn't mistaken, there were probably people from the Snake Clan watching over there. If he said anything wrong, he probably wouldn't be alive.

The Snake Clan's strategy was simple: just wait for things to pass, since humans are always forgetful.

Once this storm passes, this matter will be forgotten. After all, in the information age, much information is driven by emotions, and once those emotions subside, it will soon be forgotten.

However, news media have confirmed the number of people involved in the accident as 120.

"There are too many people." Gu Ran frowned slightly, noticing the problem, and left immediately after finishing the last sip of ramen soup.

He had to go back to find Lu Mingfei and see what had happened.

……

Lu Mingfei had a dream that he got married.

The bride was a very beautiful girl named Erii. Erii, wearing her wedding dress, looked like a pure white angel; she was truly beautiful.

The pastor asked Lu Mingfei if he was willing to marry Erii. Lu Mingfei said yes, yes. The pastor then asked Erii, and Erii also said yes.

Just as the two were about to exchange rings, someone suddenly asked him from the darkness, "Are you sure?"

Lu Mingfei was completely baffled. "Are you sure about what?"

Just as he was wondering, the bridesmaid and the other guests said they were going to perform a ceremony to burn the puppet. Lu Mingfei was very surprised that there were actually puppets burned at weddings in this world.

He watched as the puppet was placed on the enormous cross, and at that moment he saw the puppet's appearance clearly... it was Nono!

"No!" Lu Mingfei rushed over. Erii tried to grab his hand, but she couldn't hold him back. Lu Mingfei broke free, and the ring he had been holding fell to the ground.

Lu Mingfei looked back and suddenly realized that Erii had lost her life and turned into a doll.

He then realized that she was also a puppet, and that he would die if she left his side...

Just then, Lu Mingfei suddenly woke up and got out of bed.

It was still raining heavily outside, and it was still dark. He remembered that he had been seriously injured and should have died from blood loss.

However, he is not dead now, which must be because his "Don't die" incantation has taken effect.

He didn't know how he got back to the love hotel. His last memory was of Erii looking down at him, like a cold empress, her shining golden eyes filled with unparalleled majesty and a cold indifference that said, "Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things as straw dogs."

"Nono..." Lu Mingfei couldn't quite understand why she appeared in his dream as a puppet, and what this meant.

He hadn't thought about Nuonuo for a long time. She was already engaged to Caesar, and he couldn't possibly do what the little devil said and secretly kill Caesar.

However, Nuonuo has been missing for so long. She said to others that she went on a mission for an internship, but it wasn't that secret. Lu Mingfei was a little worried.

After lost in thought for a while, Lu Mingfei felt a little thirsty and was about to go to the refrigerator to get some water.

Although tap water in Japan is drinkable, Lu Mingfei has been reading online these past few days about how Japanese public intellectuals say the water quality in Japan is very poor and suggest that every household install a water purifier...

He had just gotten out of bed when he suddenly woke up with a start. How did he end up in bed? For the past few days, he'd been sleeping in the bathtub…

He immediately realized that Erii was gone.

He endured the pain and was about to get dressed to go out and search when he noticed a faint light coming from under the bathroom door and the faint sound of a television.

Lu Mingfei slowly pushed open the door and finally saw Erii soaking in the bathtub, while the TV was showing "Ultraman Tiga," a classic childhood memory for many people in China.

These tokusatsu shows actually get boring when you're older; the plots are all the same: a monster appears, the GUTS team arrives in their Flying Swallow 1 and Flying Swallow 2 to fight it! Shinjo's plane crashes! Humanity is doomed because they can't beat them! But then Ultraman appears! Ultraman and the monster fight, Ultraman runs out of time, Ultraman unleashes his ultimate attack, the monster dies, and Ultraman is gone.

Despite the incredibly boring plot, Lu Mingfei found it fascinating when he was a child.

Erii is now staring intently at the television screen.

She huddled in the corner, her golden pupils unusually bright in the darkness. These were the dazzling golden eyes that only high-blooded mixed-race individuals possessed. If this were at a Chicago auction, Erii's golden eyes would be enough to overshadow everyone else's, making all the eyes combined as bright as hers.

This is a symbol of status, and also a symbol of power and strength.

But Lu Mingfei didn't see power and strength in Erii's eyes; he only saw her weakness, pitifulness, and helplessness.

Her bright golden eyes held an unspeakable fear; she huddled in the corner of the bathtub like a frightened little mouse, trembling with fear.

Chapter 456 Embrace Between Monsters

Lu Mingfei had been too embarrassed to look at the bathtub, but then he suddenly noticed that Erii was still wearing her blue-purple tulle princess dress, which was covered in bloodstains. The bloodstains had spread and turned a light red color in the water, and the bloodstains had also stained the water in the bathtub red.

He then realized that Erii's emotions were probably very unstable.

She was a killer, but before she had only killed corpse guards and dead servants. But this time... In short, she must have been feeling terrible. Both her body and mind were in an extremely unstable state.

"Alright, alright, it's alright, it's alright." Lu Mingfei carefully reached out to Erii in the bathtub.

Erii looked at him warily, clutching a pillow that was already soaked with water.

"Don't be afraid, it's just you and me here, no one will hurt you. I, I will protect you, don't be afraid," Lu Mingfei said dryly, unable to think of any words to coax the girl.

Suddenly, he saw the little yellow duck floating on the bathtub. It looked like the same duck that Erii had given him in the sea. So he immediately picked it up and slowly pushed the little yellow duck floating on the water in front of Erii.

The bathtubs in the love hotel were designed to be very large because they were intended for intimate activities. The little yellow duck, propelled by the water's surface, slowly swam towards Erii. Their eyes followed the little yellow duck's movement until their gazes finally met.

Just like back in the ocean, when Erii met Lu Mingfei's gaze, the murderous intent in her eyes instantly vanished. Now, Erii's eyes regained some of their sparkle. She slowly moved from the other side of the bathtub to Lu Mingfei's side and wrapped her arms around his neck.

She was still curled up, like a weak and pitiful kitten. Lu Mingfei held her, no longer thinking about whether she was a monster. Her skin was so cold because the water in the bathtub was cold. She hadn't turned on the hot water to wash away the bloodstains on her body.

After embracing her for a while, her body temperature returned to normal. Suddenly, a dazzling light shone through the side window. Lu Mingfei glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and saw that it was the Tokyo Skytree, which was now lit up.

Tokyo Skytree, also known as the Tokyo Skytree, is the broadcasting tower for various television stations in Tokyo. This tall tower stands out from the crowd, radiating a pinkish glow. The soft pink color evokes a sense of warmth, like the Virgin Mary bestowing holy light to show mercy to the two children.

At this moment, Ultraman on the TV had already defeated the monster. The monster was pierced by the finishing beam and exploded, finally disappearing from sight.

"We are all little monsters, and one day we will be killed by the righteous Ultraman." Erii whispered in Lu Mingfei's ear.

Lu Mingfei's body trembled slightly, and a feeling of tenderness welled up from the bottom of his heart.

It turns out that she always knew she was different from others. She knew she was a monster, so she firmly believed that one day she would be killed by the righteous Ultraman.

The monsters that Ultraman shot down with his beams were herself. For Erii, this childhood masterpiece, "Ultraman Tiga," was likely just a childhood trauma.

She was waiting for the day she would be killed.

Lu Mingfei's eyes inexplicably became moist, his nose felt slightly sore, and he hugged her even tighter. His heart was filled with nothing but pity, devoid of any romantic thoughts.

"Years later, Lu Mingfei will probably remember that a girl loved him, although I'm not sure if it was love or just a case of feeling the same way." Gu Ran put down her binoculars at a hotel not far away and stopped looking at the love hotel's floor-to-ceiling windows.

Caesar and Chu Zihang also put down their binoculars.

The light from the Tokyo Tree shines through the windows, allowing people outside to see inside.

Caesar said, "I'm a little reluctant to send that little girl away."
