Chapter 189 Arakawa

"First of all -" Zhe Lukui hugged her shoulders habitually, leaned forward and glared at Hui Yuanchu, saying with a dissatisfied expression, "Although the matter has passed, what should be investigated still needs to be investigated - you, again Lost the keyhole.”

"Ah, hahaha..." Hui Yuanchu looked away guiltily.

Hui Yuan's current body is a new body regenerated from a drop of blood.The keyhole was still installed on the old body that was buried in the basement of the old Rose Hall.

So, more than just missing the keyhole.He has lost the whole body with the keyhole...

"Xiao Hui, do you know that the keyhole is the highest crystallization of the group's technical capabilities, so the cost is very expensive."

"How expensive?"

"Anyway, if you calculate it based on the average hourly wage, you will probably have to work for me for the rest of your life and you won't even be able to pay it back."

Hui Yuanchu clasped his fingers and counted the number of keyholes he had thrown away: "So, I owe you two lifetimes now?"

"Ah."

"Then how about I make it together for three lives and three lifetimes..."

"I haven't finished talking yet. The only thing worth three lifetimes is the cost of the hardware for the keyhole. And if I install it myself, including the service fee that I care about, it's probably worth 3 lifetimes."

"..."

"So, Xiao Hui, I just hope that you can repay me with a hundred times your efforts in this life." Zhe Lukui said seriously.

Then he quickly changed to a look of disgust and waved his hand: "As for the next life, you idiot Wang Jiang, don't follow me anymore."

Huiyuan felt a little hurt at first.

"I understand, I promise not to lose it next time." He pouted.

I am just joking.For him, he doesn't have to worry about having too many debts anyway...and he doesn't believe that Oroku Aoi would really care about such a trivial matter.

Sure enough, Oroku Kui went on to get back to the topic: "Yesterday, Mana sent a message saying that they had finally cleaned up the site of the old Rose Hall, so your body was finally dug out."

After a pause, she couldn't help but sarcastically said: "A huge harem of dolls was also unearthed."

Hui Yuan pretended not to hear the second half of the sentence.

"Asano Eimi" is indeed very enthusiastic about him in every sense, and I don't know if it is Asano Eimi's character or the craftsman's own character.

"How to deal with it?" Fortunately, Zhe Lukui didn't intend to catch him and just continued to ask.

Huiyuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's just burn it, right?"

"Huh?" Zhe Lukui raised his eyebrows, "On that body... are there any key points related to your power that cannot be discovered by others?"

"Not really. There shouldn't be anything wrong with the body itself. What I left behind were only coordinates and not strength, so no matter what method I use, it's just a ball of lifeless flesh. But the biggest problem is..." Huiyuan Chulao He said honestly, "If you leave it alone, it will rot."

Zhe Lukui's expression was a little subtle: "...Anyway, rot is none of your business, right?"

"That's what I said, but..." Hui Yuanchu's expression was also very subtle, "If you imagine that your half-eaten bento was left in the trash can for a full month, and even maggots were born... There is a kind of It’s your responsibility, so you have to deal with it, right?”

"No, it's worse than that, because the bento won't have my own face..."

Zhe Lukui probably really imagined it, and her expression suddenly froze.

She shook her head quickly, as if she wanted to expel the scene, and then said coldly: "This problem won't happen, because I just moved it yesterday and sent it to the cold storage..."

Then she exhaled heavily and continued: "Anyway, I will continue to save it like this, so that if I encounter a situation where I need it in the future..."

"...how do you want to use it?"

"I don't know, I haven't thought of it yet, but with such a good material, I feel like it can do a lot of things." Zhe Lukui smiled like a scientific researcher.

Hui Yuanchu shuddered.

But now that the words had come to this, Hui Yuanchu raised his consciousness to the center of the cross and sensed the body.

The coordinates are indeed still there.

Although the body was stabbed hundreds of times by the doll and was crushed under the collapsed building, the body is now in a miserable state... But before it rots, he should still be able to sink to it at any time and perform a revitalization in an instant Radiant regeneration.

But after glancing at the state of the corpse, Hui Yuanchu was stunned again.

"Miss Zhe."

"what's up?"

"Where did my head go... Was it the excavator that was cleaning up the site? Did the shovel go down and smash my head into pieces?" Hui Yuan initially looked at the state of his body and head, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became.

The head of the corpse seemed to have been injured by some kind of rough and brute force, and most of it was gone.Only the broken part below the lower jaw was left.

But this kind of damage is unlikely to be caused by a puppet.

Nor was it crushed by the debris of the building.Because when the old rose hall collapsed, he had already been buried by a doll.

...No, Hui Yuanchu frowned.The analysis of the cicada group told him that this form of damage did not come from the outside world, but was more like a "bomb" explosion from within.In the outside world, Zhe Lukui also sighed and said: "This is exactly what I originally planned to tell you... That injury was caused by the self-explosion of the keyhole."

"Self-explosion???"

"The keyhole itself is the crystallization of the group's technical capabilities, and it is also the physical interface into the group's E system. In addition, those who install the keyhole are often important figures in the group. Therefore, the keyhole itself must contain some kind of anti-leakage mechanism. It's a very normal demand." Zhe Lukui finished speaking businesslikely like a technician, and then shut up.

Hui Yuanchu suddenly thought of two things.

The first thing was during the Yukinoshita Saya incident, when Oro Aoi installed a keyhole for him for the first time.

Although Hui Yuan initially suspected that the keyhole also contained eavesdropping, he did not expect that the thing could blow up his head at any time... After all, judging from the size, it was really unimaginable that the gadget had such power. .

However, it was impossible for Oroku Aoi not to know about this, but she deliberately concealed it at the time.

It can only be believed that she originally had the subjective intention to use the function of "keyhole detonation" as some kind of secret trump card against Hui Yuanchu.

After all, at that stage, even if Hui Yuan Chu can regenerate, he still needs to actively issue this order through consciousness... Therefore, if the organ that produces consciousness - that is, the brain - is destroyed directly in an instant, can Hui Yuan Chu be able to "send regeneration"? "What if I was killed before I realized this?"Hui Yuanchu didn't know either.

The second thing was her emotion after the Yukinoshita Saya incident ended and after she learned that he had obtained the power of the "Cross Center" that consolidated the existence of consciousness.

——"Now, I really can't kill you."

That's right, Hui Yuanchu only now understood the true meaning of her emotion.

She was lamenting that from that moment on, even the keyhole bomb in her head no longer had any possibility of killing Hui Yuanchu.

"I see." Hui Yuan thought seriously and then came to the conclusion, "...So, you have really seriously considered 'how to kill me', right?"

Zhe Lukui just stared at him without answering.

Hui Yuanchu waited patiently.

After ten seconds, Zhe Lukui said a word: "Yes."

Then, there was silence between the two for nearly half a minute.

In the end, Zhe Lukui sighed and said, "Xiao Hui, aren't you angry?"

"No." Hui Yuan first confirmed his inner emotions again and shook his head.

Without knowing it, he was coaxed into planting a bomb in his head, and his life was threatened... If he were a normal person, he would definitely be so angry that he couldn't help himself if he was treated like this.

But Huiyuan's first feeling was - "Ah, this is just right."

It's only normal for a person like Zhe Lukui to do this.If she hadn't done such a thing, Hui Yuanchu would have been wary of whether she had done something more terrifying.

In most cases, anger arises from the betrayal of some expectation.Regardless of whether that expectation is for people or things...

But Hui Yuan had never had such expectations for Zulu Kui.

From the first meeting, Haiyuanchu realized clearly that Oro Aoi was a person with an extremely bad personality.Judging from what she has done in the past, isn't it normal to do this now?

Without expectations, there would be no betrayal, and there would be no anger.

Because the love he had in the first place did not originate from this, this kind of anticipated event would naturally not affect his love for her.

"I'm still waiting to be torn into pieces in an instant by you who are so angry." Zhe Lukui said softly.

"I won't, because I'm not angry."

"Really?"

"real."

Zhe Lukui frowned and observed his expression, and finally said to herself in disbelief: "...It seems that you are really not angry."

"trust me."

"Then you are really a weirdo." Zhe Lukui showed a somewhat complicated expression: "... Fortunately, I have prepared more means, and I plan to have a good talk with you about this matter."

"for example?"

"For example, I deployed snipers equipped with anti-materiel rifles. It only takes one shot to completely crush your head."

"...But I can regenerate."

"I know, so I said, this method is just a means, but the purpose is to 'have a good talk with you'. You can't attack me when you are reborn, but at the same time, your consciousness can hear me, right?" Lu Kui made a shooting gesture and said slowly, "Just like this, I will continue to smash your head one by one until what I want to say is finished and conveyed to you completely."

Hui Yuan was a little curious: "So, how did you originally want to convince me? There is no need to smash my head now, I will listen carefully."

"It's not about 'persuasion'." Orukui wrote lightly, "I'm just going to tell all the truth and beg for your understanding."

"Tell me, I'm very curious." Hui Yuanchu requested again.

"Okay... first of all, although it is true that the keyhole will explode, I did not intend to use it to threaten you, because it does not have that function at all. From the beginning, the keyhole was not for enemies, but for enemies. It's a yoke designed for the group itself." Orokui pointed at her head again, "——All the group's senior leaders and those in power must be buried in the keyhole in advance, including me. In my head , also equipped with a bomb called a keyhole."
