Traveler, High School Student, Homeless

By the way, Marisa still has a good impression of Guming Jilian, and always uses "Kianlian" to refer to each other in her speech.

"Is her sister missing? Can you tell me exactly what happened?"

Because he didn't participate in the torture, Kamijou Touma, who only knew part of the information Jiang Ming and others got, became curious.

"I'm not interested. I've been talking about it for a long time. My time is precious!"

But it seems that Marisa already wants to slip away a little bit.

"Then I entrust you to tell me the whole story. Didn't you say that you like to accept commissions? There are still a lot of rewards I can pay."

Taking out the newly purchased mobile phone and showing Marisa the money balance displayed on it, the expression on Kamijou Touma's face became serious.

"It turned out to be a rich man. It's a pity that Reimu is not here, otherwise I would have seen her crazy. Well, forget it, I will tell you if you really want to know, but I don't care about these things very much. So not much is known.”

After counting the number of zeros on the balance, Marisa showed a rare shocked expression.

When it comes to Gu Ming and Gu Ming's love for the two sisters, one has to talk about Gensokyo, which was established by sages to accommodate monsters and other fantasy things, in order to get rid of the rapidly developing human beings who will one day completely break away from their past fantasies. An independent place built for the world.

Monsters are creatures born of human fantasy and fear. They must be remembered and feared. However, human beings are constantly developing, constantly turning the unknown into the known, and the fear of nature and everything around them is getting less and less , even fantasy things like monsters become weak.Therefore, Gensokyo, an isolated place, was established, a village specially set aside to keep humans in fear, and the rest of the place was the territory of fantasy creatures like monsters.

At the very beginning, this fantasy land was not peaceful, it was a paradise for monsters in a complete sense, and cannibalism would happen from time to time.

But later, with the efforts of the witch, Gensokyo established the rules of spell cards, and humans and monsters gradually found a way to get along well. Gensokyo became a true paradise where humans and monsters can coexist peacefully.

But the existence of the Star Alliance broke the original pattern, and the behavior of captive humans made Gensokyo judged as a harmful existence, so it was eliminated directly, and the humans among them were taken out to give assistance as victims to start a new life. .

In the beginning, monsters, gods and others in Gensokyo were able to repel or even severely injure these Star Alliance soldiers, but as the incoming Star Alliance troops became stronger and stronger, all kinds of indescribable and terrifying technologies were destroyed. After being pulled out one by one, the imaginary creatures who began to lose their strength either fled, were captured and contained, or were directly wiped out.Of course, there are also those that are considered harmless and are not dealt with much.

For example, it has become a local mascot now, and even tourists from other planets come to watch and take pictures, a natural spirit who likes frozen frogs.

And amidst the great defeat of the imaginary creatures, some dark businesses began to operate.

Monsters born in fantasy, as long as they are not too low-level, usually have a handsome appearance, and both men and women have a magical charm.And because monsters are born out of fear, they are often hostile to humans, and will attack, kill or even eat people. Therefore, the Star Alliance very straightforwardly judges all monsters born on that planet as harmful individuals, and they are completely unaffected by the Star Alliance. Legal protections, not considered human rights, can be eliminated at will.

Then, since there are no human rights, it is no problem to treat it as an item for sale, right?

Therefore, restricting cute monsters to make them harmless, and then selling them as commodities to people with special needs has become a very prosperous business.Youkai with strong combat power often have a tenacious spirit, so it is difficult to brainwash them and use them as combat power, but it is much more convenient to restrict or directly disable youkai to lose their power, and then use them as playthings.Even according to rumors, some traders have started to breed monsters in batches, conduct genetic selection according to the method of breeding animals, and enslave education to obtain more good products that can be sold at high prices.

Of course, this kind of thing was stopped immediately after being discovered by the heroes of the alliance of superpowers, and then on the bright side, the behavior of breeding monsters disappeared.But to this day, the Star Alliance has still not given the eligibility of the monster race to be a Star Alliance citizen, so the secret trading of monsters has never been banned.Even if they are discovered, the seller and the buyer will be charged with corrupting the social atmosphere at most, and they will not even need to go to jail if they lose some money.

After all, in today's Star Alliance, skinning a monster is legally no different from skinning a cat or a dog.

"Jue and Lianlian depended on each other after the destruction of Gensokyo. They originally stayed in a Chinese country. Because the Chinese country is basically willing to grant citizenship to harmless monsters, they have been living comfortably and safely for the past few years. But Well, Lianlian has always liked to run around, and because she is good-looking, she was targeted, and one day she went out and never came back. It took a long time to hire people to inquire about it, and then I found out that there is a In the underground auction, it is very likely that her sister will be auctioned off."

After Marisa finished speaking, Kamijou Touma's fist was slowly clenched.

[Ding Dong, your call has been connected]

And it was at this time that the phone call that had been blocked all the time was suddenly connected.

"Downstairs, room 2033."

Aiden's voice sounded from the communication.

Chapter 190: The caged bird and the participants

"Ugh..."

Can't speak.

Because the mouth is blocked.

The body cannot move.

Because the body is tied up.

His hands were tied firmly behind his back, and the red rope was running around his body, making the curves more obvious.The legs are tightly tied together, the shoes are taken off, and the rope is connected to the toes, binding all ten toes together.

"Ugh..."

slam-la-

As the body twisted, the chain connected to the collar around the neck made a slight sound.

These guys are really too much...

Gu Ming felt that he no longer knew how to describe his feelings.

The special rope has the effect of absorbing demon power. After being tied up by this kind of thing, she was able to move a little bit, but now she really didn't even have the strength to stand up, and could only slump on the upper side of the bedding in the cage lie down.

However, at least part of his purpose has been achieved.

"Sister? Why does my sister..."

It was a hollow girl's voice that seemed a bit surprised, and it was difficult to discern the emotions in it.

The light green and white hair hangs down slightly, and the green eyes blink slightly. Compared with Gu Ming Dijue, she is a size smaller than Gu Ming Dijue. She can already be called a young girl's younger sister, Gu Ming Dilian, at this moment. Lying beside Jue.

Of course, he was also put on a collar and tied up, the only difference being that his mouth was not gagged.

"Petite monster twins, dangerous and cute, like two roses with thorns."

Outside the cage, a man who was being dressed by a maid chanted with an intoxicated voice.

"Well, how about using this sentence as your auction words?"

Walking up to the cage, he tapped on the cage lightly. The man asked seriously with a smile on his face.

The word is simply too bad.

If he could still speak, Gu Ming would definitely say so.

"I guess you must think it sucks. Well, I still have this self-knowledge. I'm really not a great poet."

As he spoke, the man couldn't help laughing.

"I have to admit, your little trick really gave me a headache. It really gave me a headache to actually steal something from the Demon King, and it also came with an S-rank legendary mercenary from the Star Alliance. This underground auction house has established a It's the first time I've encountered such a headache in more than a year."

There was no panic in the tone, just a little emotion.

This man still seems to have the appearance of winning, but it may be just a bluff. Anyway, since he said so, it proves that his plan has worked.This place, which had been hidden in the dark and undiscovered, was now in danger of being exposed to the light.

Although unable to speak, and unable to turn around to see the expression on the man's face because his body was tied up, Gu Ming still carefully analyzed the emotions revealed in the other's voice, and constantly built a model to analyze his thinking mode in his heart.Even though she has lost any ability to resist now, the girl still hasn't stopped looking for opportunities.It can be said that it is precisely because of this character that she was able to survive the disaster that destroyed Gensokyo.

"I know you must have a lot of plans. Heh, I thought you received a good product, but it turned out to be so hot. I admit that you have some skills."

"However, because you are so capable, the auction that was supposed to be held three days later has now been moved forward to tomorrow morning."

The man reached out and patted the gleaming golden cage lightly.

"I'm very happy that although the friends you managed to attract are extraordinary, they are still following the due process honestly. And as long as the due process is passed, then I can use my contacts to drag three or four days."

"This is not a difficult task. Create a little false information, lead them to a few empty strongholds, and at the same time leave clues to make them think that they didn't go in vain. When they realize that they are being teased, I will find a Die in the arrest process for the dead ghost, so that everyone is happy, and everyone can get the desired result. Look, isn’t there a way? Little guy, this is the modern age, not the era you live in, this Such a small idea, it is impossible to hurt me at all."

"Oh, that's right, and you don't know where to find the hacker with a sense of justice. The team to solve him has already set off. A whole team of mechanical combat teams cost me a lot of money. .This is a group of things that will resolutely complete the task even if they explode themselves, and the system is completely closed, and there is no way to hack into it. Maybe your companion is still planning how to rescue you, but I advise you to die. Heart."

The more serious the emphasis is, the more stern it is.

No matter how gentle you pretend, some things can't be faked. The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. This is the reason.

After getting the information he wanted, Gu Mingjue closed his eyes, and lay quietly on the quilt, as if he was sleepy and rested, and fell asleep under the slightly worried gaze of his sister.

At this moment, the monster girl is really like a doll who can be picked by others.

"Humph……"

Unable to get the desired response, the man's voice became a little anxious.

"Take care of these two guys, don't let them do any self-destructive actions. If something goes wrong with the goods, it will be difficult for me to explain to the benefactors."

The man who said this strode away quickly.

-

At the same time, outside this small dark room, some things continued to happen.

Jiang Ming, Virgil and others had already gone to the police station to confirm the further follow-up of the incident. The police suddenly found the lost small stone and returned it to Jiang Ming and others, but they still could not restore what happened in the exhibition hall.Even after Neo came, he only came to the conclusion that the monitoring data of the exhibition hall was completely damaged and was destroyed artificially.

Such a result is obviously unsatisfactory. Although the police hoped that the few people would not pursue the matter after recovering the lost property, Jiang Ming, who clearly sensed something was wrong, chose to continue the investigation without hesitation. Soon Neo found a person through the data operation circuit. Abandoned buildings in the suburbs, a group of people are going to check the situation.

And at the same time when Jiang Ming and others were investigating, Kamijou Touma knocked on a door in a hotel.

"Mr. Pierce, you are hurt."

Marisa, who squeezed in from beside her, looked carelessly at the man sitting on the sofa inside the room and said.

"... more people came than expected."

Aiden Pierce put down his phone, looked past Marisa, and looked at Kamijou Touma behind him, and Arara Kitobu and Oshino Shinobu who followed him beside Kamijou Touma.

"Hi, I'm calling—"

Entering the house, Kamijou Touma opened his mouth and planned to introduce himself.

"Kamijou Touma, Araragi Koryo, Oshino Shinobu, I know you all, your information is kept at a high level of confidentiality in the containment control center, I can only find some peripheral data, but these are enough for me to make a judgment gone."

"I don't want to trust strangers casually, but...in this twisted new world, I am not strong enough alone. One of you has participated in extremely dangerous battles many times, and the other is accompanied by creatures that are not recognized by the Star Alliance. I hope I made the right choice."

Exhaling lightly, the man clicked something on the phone, and then a big virtual screen suddenly appeared in the room.

"Molo Sean, the biggest middleman of the underground trade organization in New Zion City, I can be sure that he is the one who sells monsters, Miss Gu Mingdijue, and her sister Gu Mingdilian must be in his hands now."

After spending some time, the man told about the information he knew about the underground auction house.

No matter in what era, there will always be people who want to pursue something that is not normally allowed by morality or law.If the rules are too strict, then they will look for alternatives, and the monster slave is a very good way.

Even in a city like New Zion, this organization still exists.It's just that because they are under the control of the law, these people usually know how to measure, and the people above accept some small favors, and even some upper-level buyers are directly buyers, so they naturally turn a blind eye. .

It's just that now, the situation in front of him is likely to touch it. Aiden is sure that this group of people will definitely change the auction time. It is very likely that they will directly sell all the slaves in their hands in an emergency auction tomorrow, and then quickly destroy everything that exists. The traces fly away.

A hacker like himself who can track down them must be the focus of destruction. Aiden has been injured and cannot continue to act. If he just collapsed here like this, he would not accept it anyway.In this case, he can only choose to rely on these people who may not be trustworthy, but at least they seem to be okay, and they do have supernatural power.

"I see. Sure enough, this kind of thing will happen no matter where I go. Don't worry, I will rescue them and eradicate this kind of organization!"

Kamijou Touma sighed softly, then raised his head and said seriously.

"Perhaps it is correct to eliminate the monsters that eat people, but to classify all monsters as harmful existences across the board, and even treat them as slaves and use them as props for killing, this kind of thing can't be called correct anyway. Even if it is due to the barriers of different races, it should never be so cruel. Not to mention, Ms. Gu Mingdijue is definitely not a villain. I saw with my own eyes that she stayed to rescue the tourists in the exhibition hall and guide them to leave safely. screen."

"If these guys think they can arbitrarily decide the life and death of others, then I will use my fist to smash their delusion to pieces!"

drop--

As if responding to the boy's words, a display screen next to the wall made a soft sound.
