stand-in creed

"Hongcun is an omen.

"Your Evil Squadron is indeed a stand-in with excellent firepower. Although it has a destructive power beyond the ladder of heaven, it also has a fatal flaw, that is, the "bullet holes" are too small.Even if your marines hit the shard, it's just turning the shard into smaller shards.

"The 'sharp edge' of the fragments is still there,

"As long as you give it enough speed, it can still easily cut your skin!"

Puff puff puff!

Blood spattered one after another.

The tiny fragments cut one after another deep or shallow scars on Hongcun Xingzhao's body.

Seeing this scene, Hongcun Xingzhao didn't dare to hesitate at all, and he didn't dare to stay at the stairs on the second floor anymore, and ran away.

boom!

Enter the house, close the door, all in one go.

Even through the door, Hongcun Xingzhao could hear the crackling sound of those fragments hitting the wall and the floor.

Hongcun Xingzhao breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the extremely evil squadron left outside at this time found out strangely that the fragments that were originally sweeping in the air suddenly stopped at this moment.

"Stopped?

"Nero, what does he want to do?"

Hongcun Xingzhao was puzzled.

However, at the next moment, his extremely evil squadron watched helplessly as the flying fragments gradually gathered into several teams, and started to swim away like a long snake.

Or wandering on the floor.

Or close to the corner line.

Or spread in mid-air.

After only observing for two seconds, Hongcun Xingzhao felt a chill.

"This guy Nero knows that I'm hiding, hiding in a certain room!

"This is "reconnaissance"!

"He must be able to confirm the location of these fragments through his stand-in ability, so even if he doesn't need to observe with the naked eye, he can also rely on the "collision situation" of the fragments formed in the room to determine the distribution of the rooms on the second floor!

"And my Heinous Squadron has observed it, and he even left debris on every closed door to confirm the opening and closing status of the door.

"Once I want to open this door and go out, I will be pierced by overwhelming debris in the next second, just like being hit by a hail of bullets from my extremely evil squadron! Although there is also an option to hide in this room, this room has "windows"!It is by no means an iron wall like the underground safe house of the White House.

"What should I do……"

Chapter 20 Rainbow Village...Stairway to Heaven · Dark Dog

In nineteen eighty-eight.

That was the end of Japan's bubble-like golden age, 11 years ago.

At that time, Hongcun Xingzhao was a seven-year-old boy, while his younger brother Yitai was only four years old.The mother of the two brothers passed away, and the father's real estate company also went bankrupt as a matter of course under the tide of the times, and after taking on huge debts, he began to continue domestic violence against the two children.

Until one day, the father of the two brothers was found by Dio in some way, and he was given the unknown substitute ability and was also planted with granulation.Since then, with no serious job, the debt-laden family has started to make money, and the family's storage room is also full of priceless gems.

Such a good day lasted until a certain day.

Technically it was December [-], [-], the day Dior died.

With Dio's death, the granulation in his father's body began to run wild, and gradually became a disgusting swollen meat ball that could not be killed by crushing his head or cutting into pieces.After investigating a lot of things, knowing about Dio and Granny Enya, Joestar and Zebelin, and all kinds of things about doubles and bows and arrows, after confirming that his father can never be cured, Nijimura began to look for it. He became a stand-in messenger who could "kill" his father, and embarked on his own path of Shura.

"I absolutely can't stop.

"I've come this far, and I can't turn back after killing countless people! I have to find a substitute ability that can completely bury him!

"How could it be possible to stop my footsteps because of a Zeppelin ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Hongcun Xingzhao took a deep breath.

The next moment, Hongcun Xingzhao's eyes showed some kind of awareness.

"Nero Zeppelin was a watertight fellow.

"After my Apache's thermal induction was exposed, normal means can't defeat him, one must have awareness—the awareness that death must achieve the goal!

"In this case, let's compete for luck, Nero Zeppelin. You may need me alive, but for me you only need to be a dead person. Let us compare who can survive in the collapsed building." survive!

"Destroy the load-bearing columns of the building—

"——The Evil Squadron!!!"

This is a lose-lose tactic.

Maybe even a kill-it-all tactic.

But Nijimura Xingao, who is convinced that ordinary methods can never defeat Nero, decides to take a gamble that he can survive the collapse of the house, while Nero Zeppelin will be crushed to death by the ruins.

But at this moment-

"—Stairway to Heaven · Dark Dog."

Boom!

The black limousine slammed into the window and smashed a hole in the wall of the dilapidated residential building.Like a vicious dog that came out of the grass by the roadside at night, it slammed into Hongcun Xingzhao's body fiercely.

"Wow!"

moment.

Wow, Hongcun Xingzhao, who spit out a mouthful of blood, felt his body turned upside down.

The internal organs were tumbling, and even the bones were broken. It became very difficult for the whole person to lie on the ground and even stand up.

Followed by.

With a creaking sound, the black limousine flew back along the big hole it crashed into, and fell back on the road in tatters.

The clear sunlight shone into the cave and shone on Hongcun Xingzhao's body.

Under the sunlight, Hongcun Xingzhao saw a figure floating in midair.

"Look carefully at the "inside of the clothes" near the wound on your right arm, Nijimura Kataki. "

"...?!"

Hongcun Xingzhao's eyes widened, he took off his clothes and looked inside the cuffs.

Near the bloody wound cut open by the fragments, a small fragment quietly stopped inside his cuff.

"That fragment is the Beacon, Nejimura Omen.

"When the frag grenade wounds you with the first round, the fragments follow the wound and stay on the inside of your clothing. That way your Heinous Squadron won't be able to spot it, even from the outside.

"Not only that, I know that you are a guy whose intelligence far exceeds your brother Yitai. Therefore, I deliberately let those fragments wander around the second floor in a detective posture. This is also to paralyze you and make you mistakenly think that I cannot locate Your exact location."

Having said that, Hongcun Xingzhao took over the conversation.

Hongcun Xingzhao's mouth was bleeding, and he took a deep breath.

"Actually, uh, cough, cough... Actually, it not only completed the positioning of me, but also allowed me to leave the stairs and find a room to hide in. At first glance, I'm from your "Debris Storm" Escaping, but actually when I entered the room, it brought me one step closer to the "window".

"In this way, without knowing it, I entered the ideal attack range of your car attack."

Missing a move?

No, it should be said that there is no room for retaliation at all.

If I had made up my mind earlier and demolished this building earlier...

"I heard your last order to the Heinous Squadron, Nejimura.

"Could you be thinking that if you demolish the building earlier, you might still have a chance of victory? Sorry, there may be a substitute messenger who can turn back time in some corner of this world, but I guess it's not there. Duke Town.

"So for you now, where are there so many "ifs" to speak of?

"You lost, Hongcun Xingzhao.

"If I hadn't controlled the speed of the car, you would have died, right?"

"..."

Hongcun Xingzhao staggered up from the ground.

The Evil Squadron passed through the door like a ghost, marched into the room in a formation, and blocked Hongcun Xingzhao.

"……no.

"I haven't lost yet.

"Since I'm still breathing, I absolutely "must not" stop here, Nero Zeppelin.

"I've killed too many people, and I can't stop. I have to beat you here, and then go and beat Higashika Josuke to get the arrow back from his hand! Want me to admit defeat, want To make me stop, just step over my dead body!"

"...Do you want to achieve your goal even if you don't hesitate to stain your hands with sin and even sacrifice your own life?" Nero raised his eyebrows, "According to my previous habits, when encountering an enemy who has awakened like you, I will be the first Killer for a while. But you guys got me a little curious—

"—would you mind telling me what exactly you want to do?

"Even if you are thinking about how to turn defeat into victory in such a situation, maybe it is time to think about tactics and formulate strategies? Do you still think that I, Nero Zeppelin, only need a passion, accompanied by a piece of passionate background music? An opponent that can be defeated?

"Why don't you take this opportunity to talk to me about your motivation? The more you talk, the more time you have to think."

"..."

Hongcun Xingzhao stood on the ground with difficulty supporting his body.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he felt that the situation could not get worse anyway, so he simply maintained the situation and told Nero his story.

However, after listening and listening, Nero raised his eyebrows after hearing about Hongcun's father.

"You're looking in the wrong direction, Hongcun Xingzhao.

"What you need to look for is not a stand-in ability from the beginning, but the power of "ripple". "

-

Like Gigi gave the black limousine shock a name, and it's also Zeppelin's song.

"Black Dog" Led Zeppelin

Chapter 21 The Father of Rainbow Village

Hongcun Xingzhao finally gave up resistance.

Hongcun Xingzhao, who was defeated by Nero, was like a drowning victim. Even if Nero was the one who shot him down into the water, when Nero reached out to him again, he still had no choice but to Struggling to grasp the hand that was outstretched towards Nero.

Even if he would be kicked back into the water by Nero the moment he grabbed this hand, he could only admit it.But Nero obviously doesn't have such a bad taste.

After the Heinous Squadron was taken back, Nero looked at Josuke and Yitai who had finished fighting downstairs, and his eyes widened with expressions of "who am I", "where am I", and "what am I doing" Koichi Hirose.

Nero called downstairs.

"Jousuke, come up after repairing the car!"

Seeing Jousuke with a black line put the car back together, Nero nodded in satisfaction.What a convenient substitute, it would be much more convenient if there was such a substitute messenger in Cairo back then.

Next to Jousuke, the nervous Otoyasu raised his head and shouted.

"Well, where's my brother?"

"Your brother? It's just a small injury. I'm a detective and I'm very measured."

"That's good……"

Yitai breathed a sigh of relief.

However, after hearing this, Xing Zhao almost didn't recite it in one breath.

Small injury?

Try being hit by a car, who knows how many ribs you have broken!

Although Hongcun Xingzhao wanted to complain crazily in his heart, but looking at Nero who was close at hand, he still forcibly swallowed these words back into his stomach.

I can only say that I was a little scared.

And when Jousuke, Yitai, and Kang Yi came upstairs and saw Hongcun Xingzhao who was covered in distress and blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, all three of them stared wide-eyed, only Nero urged: "Take us Go see your father, Xing Zhao."
