"Hehe... Mr. Koizumi, you'd better worry about yourself. I'm the captain of the Imperial Capital Guard, and you're a wanted criminal, right? Why are you suddenly showing up in front of me, the captain of the Imperial Capital Guard?"
If the person in front of him was a complete stranger, Sailu would definitely attack without hesitation.
But Seryuu knew very well that Koizumi was not a bad person, but also his friend.
Compared to the empire's wanted order, Seleu trusts his own heart and the judgment of his own eyes more.
Moreover, he had already gone against his own heart once before because of his master's order, and ended up regretting it. General Bud also said that his master was a sinner and punished him. So, Gu Quan was actually framed by his master.
Although he told General Bud that Gu Quan might have been framed, General Bud said that Gu Quan was causing a big disturbance in the imperial capital and even attacked him, the general. This was enough for him to arrest him.
In short, it comes down to one word – catch!
Sailu always felt that General Bud seemed very determined to arrest Koizumi and the other two, and would not allow any objection, which made Sailu very confused.
However, that is General Bud's approach, and I have my own approach.
Sailu had already regretted it once, and this time he couldn't do it again no matter what.
Chapter 105 Dialogue
Honestly, Koizumi had imagined what it would be like if he and Sero met again.
He had thought that they would fight as soon as they met, and he had also thought that they would break off all ties as soon as they met, but he had never expected someone to tease him in such a joking way. After all, Koizumi felt that he was a little sorry for Cell this time.
Even though it was Celia who led the team to his shop and caused this, Celia's original intention was good. If Celia hadn't made such a fuss, Koizumi might still be doing business now, unaware that the two servants in [NIGHT RAID] might have been accidentally recruited by the Empire, and now he and Serenity would be enemies.
It's a possibility, isn't it? After all, Baimao and Jingyi are both from Night Raid.
If the Empire becomes Night Raid's enemy, then Koizumi will also become Night Raid's enemy, which will make things very difficult for Koizumi.
So at least the current situation isn't a bad thing, so strictly speaking, Koizumi should thank Sairu.
Furthermore, after Cellhu made such a fuss, he and Ouka fought each other, and then Koizumi also gained his own power.
If it weren't for the battle with Ouka, Koizumi didn't know when he would be able to gain strength.
After hearing what Saiyu said, Koizumi just smiled slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
It seems that Sailu doesn't treat himself as an enemy because of the so-called wanted order.
Being able to maintain this attitude is something that should be thankful for. At least, Koizumi cannot accept engaging in a life-and-death fight with his former friend. If a fight really breaks out, Koizumi will seem restrained.
It would be difficult for Reimu and Qin Xin to kill Sailu. At most, they could knock Sailu unconscious and never see him again.
"It seems like you don't plan to arrest me, otherwise... Xiaobi would have done it a long time ago."
As he said this, Koizumi glanced fearfully at the pet-dog-like Kobito.
In fact, Kobi has the same Imperial Tool as Susanoo, an Imperial Tool that can be continuously restored. Koizumi doesn't want to fight with him, it's too troublesome. Of course, if he releases a large-scale barrage attack, then the problem can be solved.
Reimu had fought with Hibi briefly before, and could have killed Hibi in one fell swoop with a barrage of attacks.
But because Xiaobi is a Celestial Emperor, and there are people and houses all around, Reimu's barrage attack is limited. No matter what, she can't beat the imperial capital into a mess...
Saiyu glanced at Xiaobi beside him, then smiled slightly and slowly walked to Koizumi's side.
There was a strong determination in Sailu's eyes, as if something had changed. Although he didn't know what it was, he was sure that the determination in her eyes was probably related to him. As for what it was, Koizumi really didn't know.
"It's very simple. Although I don't know why General Bud insisted on arresting Mr. Koizumi and the others, my justice sensor tells me that Mr. Koizumi, Miss Reimu, and Miss Qinxin are not evil people. General Bud wants to arrest Mr. Koizumi and the others, probably for some other reason. After all, without solid evidence, it cannot be proved that Mr. Koizumi and the others are evil!" Sailu had a confident smile on her face. In her opinion, the reason why Koizumi, Reimu, and Qinxin caused trouble in the imperial capital was because of her evil master, not because of Mr. Koizumi and the others.
Moreover, Miss Reimu attacked General Bud in order to escape from the Imperial Capital. If they did not escape at that time, Mr. Koizumi and the others would be imprisoned because of Captain Ouka's frame-up. At that time, General Bud would have no reason to interfere in the affairs of the Imperial Capital Guard, and no one would expose Captain Ouka's crimes. Then, Mr. Koizumi and the other two would be in trouble.
Well, actually, Cell is also a logic genius, but Koizumi also found it strange to hear this.
It's really strange why General Bud cares so much about the three of them.
Think about what Reimu said before, there is a faint aura of a Servant on Bud, but Bud is obviously a human, and it is indeed very strange that a human has a faint aura of a Servant.
Can this be understood as, that there is indeed something distorted in this imperial capital, and Bud is trying to protect this distortion from being repaired, and then he wants to go against Koizumi and the other two. When he saw that Reimu was a Servant, he didn't intend to let her go, so he wanted to capture Reimu, himself, and Qin Xin together?
Huh?! This reason actually sounds really reasonable!
At least Koizumi thought this reason was plausible, and at least it could explain why General Bud cared so much about him.
Of course, it's also possible that Bud was bored and felt that Gu Quan was a threat to the empire, so he wanted to do this. However, this possibility is a bit low. After all, knowing that such a powerful force is there, everyone would want to win it over.
It's also possible that General Budd has a low IQ and is old-fashioned, believing that imperial power is inviolable, so he wants to kill Koizumi and the other two to bolster the emperor's power. Considering what Najeshitan had said about Budd's personality, this reason seems to make sense and is very reasonable.
Well, since I haven't met that great general, Bud, Koizumi can't tell yet, so let's get down to business first.
"Justice sensor? When did you start wearing something like that?"
Koizumi couldn't help but look at Sailu in amusement, an inexplicable glint flickering in his eyes.
"By the way, there are quite a few Imperial Capital Guard members patrolling outside. Apparently, it's because of me. How are you? Are you okay? Are you not exhausted? If you can't hold on, then you have to tell me. Don't exhaust yourself just for some justice!"
Koizumi's worry made Sairu's lips curl slightly, and a little warmth rose in his heart.
But then she remembered Koizumi's current situation—you're being too arrogant in the Imperial Capital Guard Base! If you get caught, I won't be able to protect you!
"Mr. Koizumi, you need to leave the Imperial Capital immediately! You can see the streets are full of Imperial Capital police. If you stay here, you'll be caught sooner or later. Leave now! I know you can fly! If you soar into the sky, they won't be able to catch you!"
Koizumi could see Seryuu's anxiety, but who said flying into the sky was enough? What if that Bud launched a thunder-attribute bombardment at the sky? Who could withstand it...
Koizumi smiled faintly, grabbed Sairu's right hand, and spoke slowly.
"You can leave, but before that, you have to go somewhere with me first!"
Chapter 106 The Real Sin of the Imperial Capital (Part 1)
I have to admit, those bastards under Bud's command are pretty vigilant. At least when Koizumi was darting through the streets, he was nearly spotted several times... As expected, I'm still not good at stealth and assassination.
Assassination and stealth are Assassin's specialties, but unfortunately, Koizumi has currently put all his skill points into gun mastery.
There's nothing we can do about it. After all, the first power Koizumi awakened was Lancer Remlia's. If it was an Assassin, Koizumi would have already put all his skill points into assassination and stealth, and he wouldn't be in such an awkward situation now.
Forget it. Even if I regret clicking the wrong skill now, it's useless. I can only wait and wait to summon Assassin's servant, and then inherit Assassin's ability myself. But then again, it seems that the contract with Tranquility cannot feedback Tranquility's power to me. At first, I just thought that it has not awakened yet, but suddenly I remembered that this power is not sealed, but hidden in my body, so the passive skill of Poison Body should be in me.
However, Akame, Chelsea, Seryu and others who had come into contact with his body were not affected by the poisonous body.
Therefore, Koizumi judged that this feedback power was probably not the power of the contract between the Servant and the Master, but was fixed to certain Servants.
It is possible that the contract between oneself and the servants of Gensokyo can give back some power to oneself.
If this is true, then it will be a bit of a headache. I can't always summon the heroic spirits from Gensokyo.
They say that besides compatibility, the bond between Heroic Spirits and their Masters is also called "fate." He has at least formed a "fate" with Serenity and the people in this singularity. Whenever he summons a Heroic Spirit like Akame or Chelsea, Koizumi doesn't find it strange. But why he summoned Reimu and the others is quite strange.
Koizumi truly had no idea when his connection with Gensokyo began.
Forget it, maybe when I regain my memory in the future, I will know why... Maybe it has something to do with my previous self before I lost my memory.
Although, it seems that Reimu and the other people in Gensokyo are seeing their appearance for the first time.
Back to the point, at this moment, Koizumi was leading Sero through the streets, while keeping a vigilant eye on all around.
Chelsea, transformed into a kitten, stood on Koizumi's shoulder, looking very quiet. She didn't dare to make a sound.
If you accidentally attract the Imperial Capital Guard because of a cat's meow, it will be no small matter.
So Chelsea tried her best to be very careful, and as a professional killer, she knew very well what she should do.
On the other hand, Sairu was very surprised by Koizumi at this moment. She didn't understand why Koizumi was so skilled in stealth.
Could it be that Mr. Koizumi is really an undercover agent planted by Anning Dao in the imperial capital? Sailu felt a vague sense of unease.
Although in order to avoid regrets, Sailu tried her best to act according to her inner thoughts, it did not mean that she did not have any doubts about Koizumi, such as Reimu's abilities and why Qin Xin was surrounded by masks?
All this and more made Saiyu curious about Koizumi and the others, but he didn't think too much about it.
She believed that as a friend, Koizumi would tell her sooner or later, but the current situation...
She didn't know whether she should ask or not, after all, the ability Koizumi was currently displaying was truly puzzling.
With his brows slightly furrowed, Saiyu glanced at Koizumi in front of him, but didn't say anything.
Since I've already followed Koizumi out, I might as well see where Koizumi wants to take me.
Although he suspected that something was wrong with Koizumi, Sairu was sure of one thing: Koizumi would not hurt him.
Arriving in front of Reas's mansion, Koizumi breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had overestimated the people in the army.
Seryuu was slightly taken aback. Why would Koizumi choose to come to a place like this? This seemed to be the home of the noble Reas.
Could it be that this nobleman took Mr. Koizumi in? That's possible. I've heard that Noble Reas is a representative of elegant nobility, often taking in outsiders from outside the imperial capital, especially women, seemingly for the purpose of courtship.
This is also normal. Everyone loves beauty, not to mention that the noble Reas is such an elegant noble.
It is normal for an outstanding man to have many women. This world is a polygamous world.
It looks like Mr. Koizumi is planning to bring me here to familiarize myself with the place. I guess I'm just overthinking it...
The reason why they chose to use that stealth method was to avoid the members of the Imperial Capital Guard, which is normal.
"Mr. Koizumi, are you staying at the home of the noble Reas? Mr. Reas is truly a good man."
A smile appeared on the corner of Sero's mouth. He felt relieved that Mr. Koizumi was in the house of the nobles of Reas.
At least the nobleman Reas that Seleu knew was a man of good temper.
However, the noble Reas she knew was only what Reas wanted to show in front of everyone.
"No, but I want to show you something..." Koizumi's tone turned a little gloomy as he said this.
There's no way around it. Gu Quan has a new definition for the nobles of the imperial capital: they are extremely ugly.
"What is it?" There was a deep sense of doubt in Sailu's eyes.
Although she was surprised by Koizumi's statement that he didn't live in Reas's house, she was more concerned about what Koizumi said.
You don't live here, but why did you bring yourself here? Is there anything worth seeing here?
"You'll understand once you get in. Come with me, Seryu... Tonight you'll see the true darkness and true evil of this empire..."
There was a gleam of light in Koizumi's eyes, as if he wanted to convey something through them.
Saiyu tilted his head slightly, as if he didn't understand what Koizumi meant.
True darkness? True evil? Could it be that Mr. Koizumi is referring to the nobles of this empire?
But the nobles of the empire clearly have a good reputation, so why would Mr. Koizumi say that?
Subconsciously, Seryuu turned his gaze towards the Reas family in front of him.
This is a very large villa, and against the backdrop of night, the overall picture appears quite gloomy.
For some reason, Sairu had a very strange feeling in his heart, as if what he saw tonight would reshape his worldview... After having this feeling, Sairu didn't know whether he should follow Koizumi in.
With a slight sigh, Sailu shook off the shadow in his heart. Now was not the time to think about these things.
Since Mr. Guquan said he wanted to show me the true evils of the imperial capital, I might as well go and take a look!
What exactly is the true sin that Mr. Koizumi is talking about?
Chapter 107 The Real Evil of the Imperial Capital (Part 2)
Chelsea turned into a small fly and flew inside. She was looking for a special corner where she could clear out these guards. This was the task assigned to her by Koizumi. Originally, Koizumi was going to sneak in with Celia, but since he could deal with these guys, he might as well leave it to Chelsea, and then Koizumi would walk in openly with Celia.
To be honest, it would be better to walk in openly than to sneak in.
Rather than sneaking around, Koizumi actually prefers to just charge forward, which saves him a lot of trouble.
"As expected, I'm not cut out to be an assassin... If I were to assign a job, Lancer would be more suitable."
Koizumi muttered to himself, hiding silently aside, while Sailu squatted beside Koizumi.
Both of them were hiding in a haystack, quietly looking at the mansion of the noble Reas in front of them.
Sailu was still curious as to why Koizumi didn't take him in. He had already come to the gate, but he just wouldn't go in.
However, what made Saiyu even more curious was that the little cat on Koizumi's shoulder actually left on its own, as if it could read people's minds.
What happened to that little cat? Why did it suddenly sneak in and why hasn't there been any movement since then?
Saiyu frowned slightly, and after glancing at Koizumi, he silently stared at the interior of Reas's mansion.
However, because it was too dark, there hadn't been any special changes inside the Reas Mansion so far. No, it should be said that Seryu hadn't seen any special changes so far. To be honest, he had been staying here all the time and couldn't see any movement inside. He couldn't even see the guards clearly, so it was really hard to observe.
This is not a problem of eyesight at all, it is simply affected by the night.
The wind blew against the two people in the bushes. Koizumi wasn't affected at all, but Sailu couldn't help but tremble slightly.
There was no way. It was already so late, and Seryu wasn't wearing anything very warm, so it was inevitable that he would feel a little cold.
Koizumi is a man, and a vampire at that, so he's basically unaffected by the outside temperature.
Unless he was facing the sun, this little bit of cold wind wouldn't make Koizumi shiver or anything like that.
