Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 851: 518, Cloud gas

“Xiao Zhenji, how did you meet your master?” Yang Yang held the little girl’s hand, soaring through the sky.

“My grandma and I run a small hot spring inn in Shirakawa Village, then my master booked a month,” Jinguji Maki answered seriously, cautiously glancing at Yang Yang: “Are you really my master’s wife?”

Seeing her so pure, Yang Yang sighed and said, “Of course. We even had a child together, but she was unfortunately stolen. If she were still here, she’d be about your age.”

“Ah?!” Xiao Zhenji froze, unable to handle the bizarre Yang Yang, naturally believing her: “Did you try to find your child afterwards?”

Yang Yang’s expression grew sorrowful: “I did, but couldn’t find her. So your master has always had a knot in his heart, arguing with me. Now that he’s taken you as his apprentice, maybe that knot has been untied.”

Jinguji Maki’s little head was in chaos, not knowing how this “master’s wife” casually joked like it was nothing.

The little girl only thought that her master was also a person with a bitter fate. After reuniting with him, she must behave well.

Yang Yang, seeing the serious expression on the little girl’s face, almost burst into internal laughter.

“Master’s wife, what kind of person is my master?” Jinguji Maki curiously asked.

Yang Yang thought and said, “A mysterious person.”

“Then how did you meet him?” Xiao Zhenji asked again.

Yang Yang recalled the figure in the firelight on Laojun Mountain: “Children shouldn’t ask too many questions.”

“When will we reach Hokkaido?”

“We’ll be there soon, I fly very fast.”

“But we’ve already gotten lost twice.”

“Just say if we’re fast or not.”

At this moment, the coastline’s silhouette appeared in the distance.

They could see the ferry they needed to take to get to Hokkaido.

This showed that they were heading in the right direction this time.

Yang Yang looked down at the ground, unexpectedly seeing a black convoy slowly boarding the ferry’s deck. It was the Mysterious Business Department’s convoy!

After all 12 cars drove onto the ferry deck, dozens of armed Mysterious Business Department members started patrolling, a killing aura filling the atmosphere.

A man in white hunting clothes was sitting in one of the cars.

Yang Yang quickly increased her flight altitude to avoid being noticed.

The ferry launched, and after arriving in Hokkaido, the convoy sped to Sapporo, lying in ambush near Jinguji Maki’s mother’s house.

She frowned: “I need to tell your master that he didn’t manage to lure the entire Mysterious Business Department away. It seems the people he killed before weren’t important enough, the commotion wasn’t big enough.”

Seeing Xiao Zhenji meeting her mom, the crucial point was not just that one look, but what to do after ensuring her mom wouldn’t be implicated.

If she couldn’t achieve this, Yang Yang could only take the little girl and continue to wait until the Mysterious Business Department gave up completely.

“What do we do now?” Xiao Zhenji asked.

Yang Yang thought, her eyes suddenly brightening: “I’ll take you to an internet café to play some games. I’m really good at mid lane.”

Back then, it was this girl who compared some Awakeners to wild monsters, apparently all stemming from her personal experience.

…

…

Outside Osaka City Hall.

A black convoy was about to enter the lockdown area, while outside the lockdown area, a cosplay event was taking place, with all kinds of colorful characters. Among them, a green little dinosaur was particularly odd, not interacting with other characters, just quietly watching the convoy drive by.

When the convoy appeared outside the press conference site, the reporters hurriedly surrounded the cars as they entered.

At this moment, Qing Chen received a text message from Yang Yang: “Found a Mysterious Business Department convoy heading to Hokkaido, lying in ambush near Xiao Zhenji’s mother’s house. I think their target might be Xiao Zhenji as she’s too important to Jindai. I’m nearby keeping an eye on them; if they attempt to kidnap Xiao Zhenji’s mom, I’ll take action. One of the ambushers is wearing a white hunting suit, suspected to be Jindai Yunlo based on our intelligence.”

Qing Chen frowned deeply, he hadn’t expected that after killing people in public, the Mysterious Business Department would still send reinforcements to Hokkaido.

Was Jindai Yunlo anticipating his plan? But if that’s the case, why not directly abduct Xiao Zhenji’s mother to threaten Xiao Zhenji into appearing?

Now they’re just lying in ambush nearby, not fitting the Mysterious Business Department’s usual disregard for human life.

Strange, where did it go wrong?

What is their intention?

Qing Chen pondered for a moment, he couldn’t just watch anymore. Regardless of what the other party planned to do, he had to take action.

After the convoy entered Osaka City Hall, security personnel began checking reporters’ IDs one by one, letting all media reporters through the security gates.

Qing Chen turned and walked inside, calmly opening his arms for the security personnel to check.

The taboo item truly is a divine artifact for traveling, assassinating, and arson; carrying a bunch of weapons, yet hardly noticeable during checks.

The security personnel took out two third-order Rubik’s Cubes from his pocket: “Why do you have two Rubik’s Cubes?”

Qing Chen smiled: “I’m an enthusiast.”

Saying that, he quickly scrambled the Rubik’s Cube, and in just over three seconds, solved it.

The security personnel suspiciously put them on the conveyor belt: “Check if there’s any issue with the Rubik’s Cubes.”

After the cubes went through security again, the security personnel monitoring the screens shook their heads: “No problem.”

The security personnel in front of Qing Chen said coldly: “These two Rubik’s Cubes are to be deposited here, you can collect them after the press conference.”

“Alright,” Qing Chen didn’t mind, they were just ordinary cubes he bought at a roadside shop for fun.

Walking inside, suddenly someone shouted behind him: “Tojo Kazuo!”

Qing Chen stopped—it was the identity he was disguising as now.

Turning his head, a middle-aged woman with a cameraman walked over.

The woman wore a beige suit, exuding elegance. Although already fifty, she still had a certain charm.

She smiled, scrutinizing Qing Chen: “Weren’t you transferred to the regional station by the president? How come you have the chance to cover such high-level news?”

Understood, she was here to kick someone when they’re down.

Qing Chen calmly said: “Others happen to be busy.”

“A University of Tokyo top student, ended up at a regional station as a small reporter, such a pity,” the middle-aged woman smiled kindly, but her words were far from pleasant.

Qing Chen thought what luck, he specifically chose a regional station, a small reporter who had published left-wing comments, yet still encountered acquaintances.

Qing Chen asked: “Anything else? If not, I’ll go to the hall.”

The woman followed him inside and even sat beside Qing Chen in the hall.

The next moment, under the cover of the table, the woman tried to put her palm on Qing Chen’s thigh: “Going to the regional station, didn’t you learn a lesson yet? There’s an internal transfer quota in the bureau this year, if you…”

Qing Chen raised his eyebrows, pushing her hand away: “Show some respect, I’m here to cover the news.”

The woman smiled: “Who still watches regional station reports? You just need to go through the motions…”

The table had prepared paper and pencils for reporters, Qing Chen calmly tore the paper into very small pieces.

At this moment, members of the Mysterious Business Department, all dressed in black suits, entered the hall. Outside the hall, hundreds of soldiers wearing special combat uniforms, bulletproof helmets, and bulletproof vests were guarding.

Under these people’s escort, the Mysterious Business Department’s spokesperson walked up to the podium.

Flashbulbs kept flashing, the spokesperson calmly arranged his documents.

Qing Chen glanced around, strange—the original speaker should have been Jindai Yunxiu, but was replaced.

The spokesperson calmly said: “Recently, the Mysterious Business Department has faced malicious attacks on the internet from certain individuals, and…”

The middle-aged woman ignored the official rhetoric, instead focusing her attention on Qing Chen again, her hand moving back.

“Ah!” A scream came from below the stage, interrupting the spokesperson’s statement.

Everyone turned to the source of the sound, seeing a young man clutching a woman’s wrist, causing her to slide off her chair and kneel on the floor in pain.

Qing Chen smiled and explained: “Sorry, I couldn’t hold back.”

While everyone was puzzled, Qing Chen suddenly released the woman’s hand, walking briskly towards the stage.

He flipped his hand, revealing a pencil that flew straight into the spokesperson’s forehead.

The fallen woman opened her eyes wide in horror.

Security personnel flooded in from the eight large hall doors like ants, but they saw the killer who just revealed countless shredded paper pieces from his palm.

The killer blew forcefully, a mouthful of white cloud gas surged like a tide!

The shredded paper, like snow, surged towards the rushing Mysterious Business Department members.

As soon as they touched, the sharp paper pieces, like a metal storm, penetrated each member’s body, bursting out blood mist.

Some papers stuck to the walls, and a journalist zoomed in with his camera, seeing “Osaka City Hall” logo on the paper.

This was not some meticulously prepared weapon, but the ordinary papers every reporter had!

No one expected that these papers could be used as such lethal weapons!

The security checkpoint process was totally ineffective!

…

…

Outside Osaka City Hall, a green little dinosaur shakily ran over, looking particularly comical.

The little dinosaur held a black box in its short hands, contents unknown.

A security personnel blocked its path: “Who are you?”

But the little dinosaur suddenly accelerated, leaping two meters forward, flying over the security personnel’s head.

Without exerting much force, the black box directly flew over a hundred meters, smashing a window and flying inside.

With a loud bang, countless windows shattered from the explosion, huge smoke rising inside.

The little dinosaur shouted in clumsy Japanese: “National hero Zard is here!”

Security personnel were stunned, watching the shakily fleeing green little dinosaur: “Catch him, quick!”
