vI'm a cornerstone, I'm here to kidnap the robin

After all, it would be somewhat dangerous to deceive the man in front of you who might be the strongest man in Pinocchio during this special period.

But when it comes to gambling with his life, Sha Jin has never lost.

Looking at Sunday who hadn't taken a single step, Sha Jin's smile became even more smug.

"Looks like we can talk about the price."

ps: There should be more later, but it will probably be as hellish as usual, so no need to wait.

Volume 58: Attacks in the Shadows

"Ms. Mockingbird, you are finally back."

In the dressing room behind the scenes of the Krok Movie Park, as soon as Robin opened the door, the waitress came up to her in a hurry and pulled her to the clothes rack without saying a word.

Looking at the robin still dressed in "Saturday" clothes, I was almost scared to tears.

"Ms. Robin, didn't you say you were just going out for a walk? It's fine that you're back so late, but why are you still wearing this dress? You're about to go on stage, this, this, this..."

"Calm down, Ella. We still have some time. The warm-up music has just started and won't be over for a while."

Waving his hand lazily, Robin signaled the waitress not to worry, picked up the performance clothes hanging on the hanger, and walked into the dressing room.

After all, this is just a warm-up concert, and its main purpose is not even to build momentum for Robin's performance on stage.

As a universal singer, Robin no longer needs to maintain her popularity in this way. Rather than relying on her own strength to overshadow the entire Pinocchio, she would rather give some unnecessary stages to talented newcomers, just like now.

"How can I stay calm? Miss Mockingbird, you've seemed a little absent-minded lately. The Harmony Festival is about to begin. If something goes wrong during the warm-up concert..."

The waitress's trembling voice reached Robin's ears through the door curtain, making her sigh helplessly.

Everyone knows that the universal singer, the robin, is famous and must always pay attention to his image, but everyone seems to have forgotten one thing.

"Don't worry, don't worry. I've long since passed the stage where I'm worried about being devastated by a single mistake. Rather, it's precisely because I want to make sure nothing goes wrong at the Harmonious Music Festival that I've been away for so long."

When the curtain of the dressing room was opened, the apprentice singer Saturday, who was as gentle as the bright moon in the sky, disappeared, and the most dazzling jewel in the crown of Pinocchio - Robin, made a grand appearance.

Sitting in front of the dressing table, letting the skilled maid apply makeup to her face, Robin watched the Saturday makeup on her face fade away little by little, and suddenly an inexplicable idea arose in her mind.

If I appeared in front of Mr. Jeremy as Saturday, dressed up as gorgeously as a robin, what kind of expression would Mr. Jeremy have?

"By the way, have the monitors I hid in the flowers responded?"

"Everything is fine, Miss Mockingbird. The gentleman you so warmly entertained seems to have been very well-behaved and has remained in the private room."

After hearing the maid's report, the robin felt a little confused.

"Really? Mr. Jeramy is so obedient?"

"After all, it's you, Miss, who's personally receiving the guests. No one should be rude to you, right?"

Hearing the waitress's compliment, Robin smiled helplessly, and the sudden change in expression almost made the skilled makeup artist fail.

"That's hard to say. After all, what kind of cage in the world can trap Mr. Jeremy? After all, he himself is the spider that is most skilled in spinning cocoons and webs."

After much thought, Mockingbird set up a timed text message on his mobile phone, which would be sent to Jeremy when he went on stage to sing the first song, in order to consolidate his proof of the simultaneous existence of "Saturday" and "Mockingbird".

[Sorry, Mr. Jeremy, there are more things to deal with than I expected. Please give me a little more time.]

After doing all this, the robin looked down at his waist, as if he saw the spider silk that had been tied around his waist when he was in the memory space.

That spider silk had pulled her out of the insect swarm more than once, allowing her to avoid being overwhelmed by the insect swarm, and even sent her out of the memory space at the last moment.

Although the spider silk that existed only in dreams had long disappeared, the robin still felt that he seemed unable to escape the pull of the spider silk.

………………

On the other hand, just as Robin had expected, Jeramy was able to stroll freely in the backstage area of ​​​​Clock Film and Television Park with his own illusion and some ether editing techniques learned from Silver Wolf.

His most skilled illusion blocked the sight of the hounds, so no one would notice him even if they passed by.

Ether editing can prevent Jeramy from being detected by any monitoring equipment.

In terms of hacking ability, Jeremy may have only reached the surface of Silver Wolf. If the Star Core Hunter can allow himself to fly freely in Pinocchio's electronic network, Jeremy can only allow the area he is in to be disturbed, and he can't even think about such a difficult operation as changing reality.

But for now, it’s enough.

Wandering freely in the Clark Film and Television Park, Jeremy was not in a hurry. He even listened with interest to the first song sung by the universal singer Miss Robin.

Although not as beautiful as Miss Saturday, it is also a rare heavenly voice.

Jeremy knew very well that he was not the only one who was anxious.

The family hounds must have received orders to be careful to look for the presence of glass, and they were even ordered to pay attention to Jeramy's actions.

At this moment, the opening ceremony has just ended, and the hounds are most excited.

The beginning and the end are the two stages that are least suitable for taking action.

They have already sharpened their claws and have the keenest sense of smell. If he takes action at this time, Jeremy will not be facing ferocious hounds, but a pack of bloodthirsty wolves.

Although Jeremy was not afraid of the guards of these families, he did not want to see blood if possible.

After all, he kidnapped the robin not for fame or fortune, but to fulfill the Amber King's revelation.

If the situation becomes difficult to resolve, it will not only go against his original intention, but will also make Miss Saturday feel embarrassed.

What's more, his plan to kidnap a robin is not as easy as he imagined.

The Oak family head valued his sister far more than Jeremy had imagined. He even accompanied her to concerts. Even Jeremy was not completely sure that he could kidnap someone when the other party was well prepared.

The ideal time to take action is when the concert is mostly going on. The quietness in the first half will allow the hounds to relax their overly tense nerves and will not make them feel nervous about the end.

If he was lucky, the head of the Oak family might also let down his guard at that time.

Fantasizing about a possibility that even he himself didn't believe in, Jeremy even leaned against the wall and took out his cell phone after feeling a vibration in his communication.

Yes, with the help of spider silk and ether editing, scouting terrain routes is such an easy task for Jeramy.

Most of the preliminary work has been completed, and Jeremy can even go back to the private room prepared for him by Miss Saturday and wait quietly for the opportunity.

Although waiting for that fleeting opportunity, which might only come once, was somewhat agonizing, unfortunately, both Kafka and Lady Emerald had taught him that as a hunter (commercial spy), the most indispensable qualities were patience and calmness.

When Jeremy opened his phone, he saw a text message from Miss Saturday.

[Sorry, Mr. Jeremy, there are more things to deal with than I expected. Please give me a little more time.]

There are even cute emoticons at the end.

Looking at this text message that seemed like a coquettish message, Jeremy couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect that the elegant and short-lived Miss Saturday would have such a lovely side behind the electronic screen.

Just as Jeremy was typing and preparing to reply to Miss Saturday's message, a purple-black shadow had quietly moved to the ceiling above Jeremy's head.

The shadow's body was covered with several huge eyeballs, and from time to time a faint purple light flashed across them.

The shadow that approached quietly seemed to ignore Jeremy's illusion and accurately located Jeremy's illusion.

I don’t know whether it’s because the insight of those eyeballs is beyond that of ordinary people, or because this strange creature that cannot be named actually does not rely on eyes at all.

But such trivial matters were of no importance at all. When Jeremy lowered his head to focus on the message on his mobile phone, a small purple-black shadow with a sharp body flashing with cold light hung down from the ceiling and silently reached towards the back of Jeremy's neck.

PS: This was written last night. I fell asleep while writing it.

Volume 59: 5 Memory Memes (k)

The sharp cold light poured down, like a meteor across the sky, flashing in the darkness.

It was a huge wing horn with eyes, purple-black light flowing on it, emitting a creepy aura.

Although its size was huge enough, the purple-black shadow did not make any sound with every move.

Not only that, but the air currents created by its massive size, the chill emanating from its sharp wings, and the shadows created by blocking the light...

All elements that might make people aware of its existence seemed to be wiped out by this purple-black shadow.

It is the most perfect assassin, wandering in the shadows. The victim can only realize that he has been killed by it at the moment of death.

The sharp wing horns did not choose to directly pierce Jeremy's spine from top to bottom like a judgment falling from the sky. Instead, for some unknown reason, they bypassed the back of Jeremy's neck and attacked his back like a scorpion's tail.

Being pierced by this bizarre weapon might not be much better than being tortured by lingchi.

The sharp cold light easily penetrated the fragile human body. The sharp and somewhat strange-shaped wing corners pierced directly into Jeremy's back and emerged from in front of his chest in an instant.

Everything happened so suddenly that the figure who was still replying to the message with his head down a second ago seemed unaware of what had happened, and a smile still remained on the corner of his mouth.

It was not until his chest was pierced by the cold light from behind, and all his internal organs including the heart were turned into a pool of meaningless blood by the strange wing horns attacking from behind, and his heart, which should have been beating strongly, was destroyed in an instant and could no longer pump even a drop of blood to the body, that the smile on the victim's face gradually froze.

The phone fell to the ground with the screen still on, and the fragile screen was covered with glass shards, and there was even a message on it that Jeremy had not yet responded to.

The purple-black shadow looked at the blue-black figure hanging on the corner of its wing with some surprise, and the several huge eyes on the corner of the wing showed some confusion.

Someone told him that the guy he was going to attack was not a simple person, and logically speaking, he shouldn't be able to succeed so easily.

In other words, the guy who assigned me the task made a wrong judgment... right?

【Fake... No, now I should say... Mirror flowers and water moons. 】

From the perspective of the purple-black eyes of the memory domain meme, cracks suddenly appeared in his vision, just like a glass window that was originally so transparent that it was almost imperceptible, but was suddenly hit by a punch. Countless of his own appearances were reflected between the cracks, making people feel an indescribable sense of unreality in a trance.

The next moment, the cracked mirror in front of him shattered, and the wings of the Memory Domain Meme hung empty in the air, unable to even touch the corner of Jeremy's clothes.

It was obvious that he was the one who launched the sneak attack, but he had already fallen into the opponent's trap before he could make a move. Such a rapid change of identity made Yiyu Meme's body pause.

The next second, the purple-black shadow suddenly shrank, and the memory meme, knowing that it had fallen into Jerami's trap, fled into the darkness.

If the attack fails, retreat quickly. Dreams are its home ground. As long as you are willing to wait, there will always be a new opportunity to attack.

As a hunter, the thing you have the most is patience.

However, some people don't intend to let it go so easily.

A jade-like luster appeared in the palm of his hand. Jeremy attached a layer of glass membrane made of foundation stone between his hands, and directly reached out to grasp the wing horn that tried to attack him but had not yet been retracted.

"Hello, what are you?"

Grabbing the strangely shaped wing corners of the Memory Domain Meme, Jeremy showed a cruel smile, and then... he exerted force with both hands and pulled the purple-black monster out of the shadows.

Although he looks a little thin, Jeramy is actually quite strong.

After all, when necessary, spiders can exert several times the strength of their normal state.

Under the sudden outburst of strange power from Jeremy, the huge body of the Memory Domain Meme was forcibly pulled out of the protection of the wall and slammed fiercely to the ground, creating spider-web-like cracks in the solid ground.

The monster that had been hiding in the shadows was completely exposed under the lights of the corridor. If Jeremy had not used the ether editor to hack the surrounding surveillance devices, perhaps everything that happened here would have attracted the attention of Pinocchio officials.

Of course, perhaps the monster's attack was planned by Pinocchio officials.

In fact, Jeramy had already noticed something was wrong long before the Memory Domain Meme took action.

After all, in the extremely busy backstage, the sudden appearance of a quiet area with no staff members is very suspicious no matter how you look at it.

There are only two reasons why this situation occurred in the backstage where it should have been noisy.

Or, the monster in front of him had already quietly killed everyone else, and this was his hunting ground.

Or, the staff who should have been here have been transferred away, and this is the battlefield created by the family specifically for themselves.

Jeremy was certain that no matter what the situation was, this purple-black monster was coming for him.

The only difference is whether its target is only itself, or whether it is just one of its hunting targets.

It was precisely to clarify this that Jeremy chose to stay here and deliberately leave a loophole.

It turns out that although this purple-black monster has strange abilities and sharp wings, its combat IQ is even more worrying than Jeremy imagined.

He was dressed in a sinister outfit, but ended up doing nothing but hiding in a deserted place playing with his phone. If Jeremy were to do this fishing method with a straight hook and salty bait, he might not even dare to take the bait if he were to do it himself.

Jeremy lowered his head and looked at the memory meme that was pulled under the light by his sudden burst of strange power. When the killer lurking in the shadows was exposed to the sunlight, the danger derived from the secret disappeared.

"Can't you speak? Then let me change the question. Can you ask the person behind you to come out and talk to me? I don't believe that something like you could be born naturally."

If it was really born naturally, then the conditions of its birth are too specific.

He happened to appear at the Robin's concert and happened to set his sights on me while I was taking action. No matter how you look at it, it was a bit of a coincidence.

Rather than viewing it as a naturally born monster that hunts indiscriminately, Jeremy is more inclined to believe that it is a weapon used by the family against him.

After all, there shouldn't be many people in Pinocchio who can see through the disguise of shallow illusions and detect his existence.

Moreover, it has almost become a routine for corporate spies to receive "warm hospitality" from their hosts when conducting covert operations.

Although Jeremy himself knew very well that the person hiding behind this monster would most likely not show up so easily.

Looking at the memory meme that had staggered up from the ground and was suspended in the air again, Jeremy clenched his fists again.

This time, the reflection of the glass attached to his hands was no longer round and smooth, but had a sharper light, and sharp barbs condensed on the back of Jeremy's fingers and hands.

Since he was using the identity of Glass, Jeramy didn't plan to use his usual venom spray gun to fight Spider Silk, and even the backhand sword was not suitable.
