The barrage lasted for a full two minutes before the group slowly stopped firing, but they still kept their weapons warily aimed at the area where Si Shou and the others were.

This time, there was no such thing as the "smoke without harm" theorem. After the dust slowly settled, the shadowy team brought by Shitte and Hiruko had completely disappeared without a trace.

However, Si Shou is still alive.

"He's still alive?!"

Upon seeing this, everyone showed expressions of shock.

"This guy is really tenacious."

Moriarty returned to Fujimaru Ritsuka's side and was somewhat surprised to see that she had survived such a barrage of fire.

Then, he asked Fujimaru Ritsuka:

"Should I take action next?"

She shook her head and said:

"Not for now, let's see how things go first."

"Ok."

So Moriarty stepped back behind her and stood still, then suddenly grumbled softly:

"Come to think of it, it seems like I haven't had any opportunities to show my abilities so far, even though I finally got here."

"Could it be that I've already been laid off?"

"Didn't you already show that when we were at the guesthouse? You were really good, Professor."

Fujimaru Ritsuka casually replied to him, still keeping her eyes fixed on the four hands on the field.

Although Four Hands survived the bombardment, his current condition shows that he is not as invulnerable as Shinpei and the others remembered.

At the very least, it can be said with certainty that their attack was indeed effective.

Four hands fell to the ground.

Seemingly for the purpose of thorough defense, his original limbs disappeared, turning into a completely black sphere.

Even so, after being bombarded by firepower, his fleshy body had become a pitted and broken mess. The black substance that was originally as hard as iron on his body had now fallen off like mud, revealing the human flesh underneath.

At the same time, Hiruko also emerged from the black mud on the abdomen of the four hands, apparently protecting the other party by hiding her inside her body.

"Are you OK?!"

Hiruko lay beside him and asked worriedly.

"I guess I'm still barely alive."

He replied with a single sentence.

For him, the barrage of bullets was indeed unbearable, but what really dealt him a heavy blow was the countless grenades that Fujimaru Ritsuka threw.

On the other side, everyone's gaze sharpened when they saw the human limbs protruding from beneath the four-armed black mud body.

really.

In fact, they were not too surprised by this result.

Because in their previous battle with Four Hands, they discovered that their attacks could not harm Four Hands' shadow, and that only Four Hands maintained the alien appearance, unlike the other shadows which maintained human form.

Therefore, they speculated that the four hands might not be shadows, but rather people with some special abilities.

And this person is most likely someone they all know.

That's why the other party deliberately maintained the appearance of an alien and even intentionally changed his voice, just so they wouldn't guess his true identity.

Seeing that the four hands seemed to be extremely weak, the group slowly approached with their weapons raised.

Looking at the four hands, Nanfang Rihe bluntly laid his cards on the table:

"It really is you, Karikiri Masato."

"Is this the only way to keep it a secret?"

Upon hearing this, Shishou—no, Karakiri Masato—no longer concealed himself; the black mud on his body writhed, revealing a face familiar to everyone.

Karigiri Masato is the chief priest of Hito Shrine on Hito Island, the highest representative of the shrine.

Shinpei Amagi wasn't unfamiliar with him, as the other party was his adoptive father, the father of Ushio and Mio, a good friend of Alan Kozue, and the one who presided over Ushio Kozue's funeral.

Should I say "long time no see" or "nice to meet you"?

After making a joke, Masato Karikiri then asked:

"However, you said 'as expected'? Did you already guess my true identity beforehand?"

Shen Ping, the online agent, replied:

"After all, we already know that the Hiruko-no-Kami enshrined at Nichito Shrine is actually Nami-no-Ichi, so how could you, as the chief priest of Nichito Shrine, not arouse suspicion?"

Sakura Kagiri laughed:

"Is that so? That makes sense."

On the other side, Nanfang Rihe continued:

"Besides, you have a strong, repulsive odor that you can't hide in a turtle shell."

"The way you speak is as hurtful as ever, Rihe."

Masato Karikiri made a lighthearted joke, seemingly unconcerned about his injuries.

As he spoke, the black mud on his body surged again, reforming into a shrunken body that clung tightly to his body. Although his combat power was greatly reduced, it at least allowed him to stand up from the ground again.

Seeing this, everyone immediately raised their guns and pointed them at him warily. Netease Shinpei questioned him:

"Mr. Yanqie, since you are also human, why do you cooperate with the shadow?!"

"Because you still know too little."

Instead of answering his question directly, Karikiri Masato smiled and said:

"However, I actually have quite a few questions I'd like to ask, for example—"

"Where did you get these weapons from?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze turned icy.

These firearms, which appeared out of nowhere, were the key reason for his defeat and the thing he couldn't understand the most.

Because such a large quantity of firearms is simply not something ordinary people could possess, let alone appear on Ridu Island;

Furthermore, Wang Daishinping and his group had never been equipped with these weapons before, unless they deliberately hid them until now.

However, this possibility is extremely low;

Moreover, in the previous cycle, he had used Nezu Ginjiro's sniper rifle to shoot and kill Amishiro Shinpei in the gymnasium, even though they didn't have those weapons at the time.

But after this time rewind, these firearms seemed to appear out of thin air in their hands.

I can’t figure it out, I really can’t figure it out!

This incomprehensible feeling, like an unknown terror appearing before him, made him extremely irritable and uneasy.

另外

He scanned everyone in front of him, finally fixing his gaze on the three people, including Fujimaru Ritsuka, whom he had never seen before.

"Speaking of which, who are these people I've never seen before? Are they Shinpei-kun's newly recruited companions? Or..."

"Could they be the ones supplying the weapons?"

"Shouldn't I be asking you now?"

Neta Shinpei did not answer his question, nor did his expression change.

However, not everyone on the team was as calm as him.

"It seems that's indeed the case."

Seeing the shocked expression on Masato's face through the diamond-shaped window, he realized his guess was correct and laughed.

Then, his gaze fixed on Fujimaru Ritsuka, and he spoke:

"May I ask, who exactly are you people?"

"How about we satisfy the curiosity of a loser before he dies?"

Of course, while saying this might be partly out of curiosity, it was mostly a delaying tactic. The goal was simply to find a way to get the rice...

"Clan members."

At this moment, Bo Dao, who was standing next to him, suddenly spoke up and murmured.

When Masato Karikiri looked at her, he found that Nagare was already in tears, staring blankly at Ritsuka Fujimaru opposite her.

"Bo Dao, you...?"

Karikiri Masato was puzzled, but the next moment, to everyone's astonishment, Hata suddenly left his side and rushed towards Fujimaru Ritsuka without regard for anything else!

What a day it is today! Everyone is so enthusiastic about voting for monthly tickets!

I was originally planning to ask for monthly votes, but I've completely lost it.

"Bo Dao?! Come back quickly!"

Seeing that Ina had suddenly acted on her own for some unknown reason, Masato Karikiri hurriedly called her name, trying to stop her, but to no avail.
