A few hours later, on Zhangye Street.
A figure wearing a loose windbreaker walked over quickly.
There was a black car parked on the side of the road, with the driver's window slowly rolled down. Violet glanced at the figure.
Kaxiu held a box in each hand, and he was wearing a pair of iconic white gloves on the palms of his hands that were carrying the boxes.
"It seems... it was successful?" Violet turned back.
The rear door of the car was opened. Kaxiu bent down and entered the car, sat on the seat, and placed two boxes on the carpet.
"Congratulations, Boss."
Violet's voice of congratulations came from the driver's seat in front.
Kaxiu didn't answer, but just nodded. After a while, he said, "Go back to my house, no, go to the Gray Seal Martial Arts School first." He raised his right hand and glanced at the watch on his wrist.
"OK."
The car started and immediately drove towards Hongta Street.
In the back seat of the car, Kaxiu opened the box he had opened before, and inside was a pile of gloves and metal playing cards.
I took out the playing cards and looked at them. They looked very finely made and not heavy. They were scaled down so that I could carry them with me. Of course, this thing is not for showing off.
It is a sign, a deterrent sign.
Just like some big gangs, after they develop to a certain extent, they will have a unified outfit. They will even require their subordinates to shout a line before killing: "On the orders of XXX." This is actually forming a gang name card and accumulating the deterrent power of the organization.
The Spade Ace organization also has the same gang name card. The lower-level members or killers mostly have spade-shaped badges to indicate their membership. The twelve high-level members naturally have metal playing card names and swan silk white gloves on their hands.
Imagine that the top leaders of the Spade Ace organization are going to hold a meeting. Fourteen people are sitting on a long table, each of them has a serious expression and a strong aura, and they wear white gloves on their hands.
There is an inexplicable feeling of professionalism and solemnity.
Forgetting the strange image in his mind, Kaxiu opened another box, which was full of green Hongli Federation coins. A total of one million, which was given to him by Bai Niao after the meeting. It was said that it was the cost of Kaxiu's next move against the Sand Dust Organization.
Moreover, this was just a deposit. If the next operation was successful and the antique transfer warehouse of the Sand Dust Organization was destroyed, Kaxiu would be able to get another 3 million federal coins.
The operation mode of the Spade A organization is a little bit like a commercial company. Except for some special circumstances, members have to pay money when they are assigned by the organization to carry out a certain task. As the fourth in command of the assassination department, Kaxiu, the newly promoted "J of Diamonds", the price of one shot is naturally not low. The opponent is the Sand Dust Organization, which has been very popular recently, so a total of 4 million Red Lebanon Federation coins is normal.
In fact, this is still a small amount. After all, Kaxiu is working for the Spade A organization, so of course the price cannot be too high. If the Spade A organization cooperates with other forces and Kaxiu is sent there as an aid, then the benefits will be even greater.
At least double it, of course the Ace of Spades will also take a cut. But overall, the money you get is definitely more than before.
As the old saying goes, it’s nice to sit under a big tree and enjoy the shade.
Whether it is to obtain antique resources or money, Kaxiu needs the help of Spade Ace. He has his own plans in mind.
Ten minutes later, the car stopped at Hongta Street.
Kaxiu did not enter the martial arts hall, but waited at the door.
When he went to the assassination department meeting at noon, he forgot to bring the ointment. When the meeting was over, it was almost time for Phil and others to go home from school. Kaxiu simply asked Violet to drive all the way to the Gray Seal Martial Arts Hall and bring his three prospective apprentices to their new home.
It also saves you the trouble of making an extra trip back and forth.
Five minutes later, three figures appeared in the back seat of the car.
And Kaxiu sat in the passenger seat.
Tifa asked curiously: "Teacher, did you buy a car?"
Kaxiu paused for a moment and then said, "I guess so..."
Although Violet is driving this Black Cloud sedan now, it should be hers in about half an hour.
On the side of the back seat, Phil seemed to be looking at the profile of Violet in the driver's seat. He always felt that this beautiful older sister looked familiar, as if she was a friend of his brother Matthew.
"Let's go to my house." Kaxiu crossed his arms over his chest.
Half an hour later, in the yard of Kaxiu's new home.
Violet was looking at the scene in front of her in confusion. On the floor was a battered and tattered Black Cloud sedan.
"Ah? Let me drive this car back? Boss..."
She turned her head and looked at the side. Ka Zheng was leaning against another intact Black Cloud car. He had his hands folded in front of his chest, his expression was still serious and indifferent, and his right hand was raised with a thumbs up.
"You can do it." He encouraged earnestly.
"Is this a question of whether it will work or not?! The exterior of this wrecked car that flipped into the ditch is in such a state that it might stall as soon as it gets on the road. If the fuel tank is leaking, it might explode as soon as I step on the accelerator!" Violet complained crazily in her heart.
Kaxiu next to her seemed to notice Violet's little emotion.
He then said, "In fact, this Black Cloud car only looks a little shabby on the outside, but its internal structure and engine are intact. I remember that I overturned the car on Brooklyn Boulevard, and I drove back a distance of four or five kilometers."
Kaxiu paused and continued, "It's mainly because I have some trouble sending three students back today. You can't ask me to use this broken car. Or you can be patient and wait until around six or seven in the evening to send those three guys back?"
"Then I'll drive this car."
Violet decisively opened the broken door of the driver's seat and sat in. She hated being alone with lively children the most!
"Thump, thump, thump..."
The severely damaged Black Cloud sedan started to move, the rear end trembled, and the metal joints creaked. It looked like it would fall apart if it drove a few hundred meters.
Violet's face suddenly popped out from the broken car window.
"Boss, you really drove four or five kilometers without any problem?"
Kaxiu nodded: "Of course."
After a moment.
Violet drove away with a resentful look on her face.
Kaxiu closed the iron gate and immediately drove the brand new Black Cloud sedan to its original position. Then he nodded with satisfaction and turned around.
In the living room on the first floor, Phil and two other people were practicing boxing.
It was still the same basic fighting moves, but this time it was a little different from before, these basic moves came with some combos, which was equivalent to using two or three moves in a row.
Kashu has already begun to plan to teach Tifa and the others the basic wind fighting techniques step by step, and now is the time to warm up.
"ha."
Phil exhaled softly. He spread his legs to the sides to stabilize his center of gravity. His left hand clenched into a fist and hung at his side, while his right hand thrust forward straightly, using about 70% of his strength.
Keeping his arm suspended in the air, Phil took another deep breath. Suddenly he heard a bang not far away.
"What is that?" Phil couldn't help but look around.
There were no tables or chairs falling down. Kaxiu was standing not far from the three people, watching each person's punching movements.
Phil shook his head and retracted his arm. He shifted his feet and changed his posture, and was about to throw a punch.
There was another bang in my ears.
"Huh?" Phil turned his head.
“Pah.”
Suddenly, a hand patted his head, and Kaxiu appeared beside him without knowing when: "Practice boxing seriously."
"No, Master, I turned around because I heard something fall to the ground." Phil defended himself.
"That's probably a rat, don't be distracted."
Kaxiu glanced at the two people next to him and said, "Tifamilo is a very calm person. Don't stick your head out just because of a little noise."
"If you can't calm down, you can't practice any fighting skills well."
He looked at Phil and spoke earnestly.
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang..."
Inside the basement, a series of dull collision sounds came continuously, as if responding to what Kaxiu had just said.
Milotefa, who was exercising nearby, also stopped fighting and looked towards the source of the sound with curiosity.
Kaxiu's face turned visibly pale, and his thick eyebrows trembled: "They are really two dead rats!"
"You guys continue practicing, I'll go catch a mouse." Kaxiu turned and left expressionlessly, his strong right hand clenched into a fist.
In the living room, the three of them looked at each other in confusion. Half a minute later, they had just set up their weapons and were about to practice their fighting moves again when two extremely loud muffled sounds came from the basement.
“Bang! Bang!”
The sound was like the dull sound of leather colliding when a boxer wearing gloves hits a standing boxing bag with all his strength.
After a moment, the three saw Kaxiu's tall figure walking up from the basement, his hands hanging at his sides, his face expressionless.
It seemed as if some sticky liquid was dripping down the joints.
Looking closely, it looks like blood!
The three of them stared with wide eyes. Kaxiu seemed to notice the gazes they were looking at. He raised his hand and said calmly, "This basement used to be a granary. There were two fat rats causing trouble in it. But they are fine now. I killed them."
After that, he walked quickly to the bathroom.
Milo pursed his lips.
Would killing two mice cause such a big noise
He didn't know and didn't dare to ask further.
Half a minute later, Kaxiu came back after washing his hands. He immediately asked the three people to stop and then put out three small bottles of exercise ointment.
"Old rules, half an hour of ointment stimulation, take it yourself."
Time passed by little by little, and the bright sunlight outside fell below the horizon. The clouds were swept together by the wind, and there was a pale red line of fire at the bottom. The entire sky turned orange, and the light progressed inch by inch.
"It's time. I'll take you back."
Kaxiu stood at the door and glanced at his watch, then walked out, got into the new car and started it. The three of them got into the back seat.
This time, Kaxiu drove the three of them to the entrance of the Gray Seal Martial Arts School on Hongta Street. Kaxiu knew about the Phil family, but he had never asked about the Milottifa family and had never been there. Instead of wasting time driving around, it would be better to let the three of them walk home by themselves.
After all, the three of them lived near the Edelweiss Middle School district. It wouldn't take long to get there from Hongta Street.
Half an hour later, when Kaxiu came back, it was completely dark and the street lights on both sides of the street started working.
He opened the iron gate and drove the Black Cloud sedan straight in.
The car door opened with a click. Kaxiu turned back and was about to close the iron gate when he saw a beautiful woman walking in.
She was wearing a black dress that was slightly tight, which showed off her curvy figure very well. She was wearing black stockings under the dress, which made her look very fashionable and sexy.
"It's not a good idea to break into someone's house in the evening."
Kaxiu stood in the shadows, like a statue.
"Sorry." The woman apologized politely at first, then said shockingly: "You are parasitized by a shadow."
"Um?!"
Kaxiu disappeared from the spot in an instant, and appeared behind the woman like a ghost in an instant, slowly extending his right hand.
"I know you've practiced martial arts and are probably very strong. But could you please wait for me to finish what I'm saying?"
The woman raised her hands to show that she was no threat.
Ten minutes later, on the Rococo living room sofa.
The woman and Kasu sat face to face. On the coffee table between them was a cup of black tea, most of which had been drunk.
"So, you are from a secret organization called Shadowless, and you want to invite me to join. Because most members of Shadowless are humans like me who are parasitized by demonic shadows?"
Kaxiu put down the tea in his hand, sorted it out and said.
"Yes, that's right. You should know the rules of the Shadow's assimilation. There are nine chances in total. Each time you lose to the Shadow, part of your body will be assimilated. Before inviting you to join the organization, I want to ask you a question. What is your assimilation rate?"
The woman took a sip of tea and continued, "It's best not to exceed 70%. Once it exceeds that..."
"etc!"
Kaxiu suddenly interrupted the woman. He slowly raised his head and frowned, "What is the assimilation rate?"
"Ah?!" The woman also had a question mark on her face.
Five minutes later, Kaxiu finally understood everything.
My own magic shadow is completely different from ordinary magic shadows!
Others have nine chances, and they are assimilated by the demonic shadow bit by bit. I only have one chance, and if I lose, I will be replaced instantly. Each of the nine manifestations is extremely dangerous!
Ordinary people would probably despair, but fortunately Kaxiu has a plug-in that can exploit the bug and use the time difference to increase his strength.
This temporarily rendered the phantom harmless, and even treated it as a valuable resource, as a double experience gift package for Kaxiu.
I can only say that I am very lucky.
In addition, Kaxiu also roughly understood the strength of the other party's Shadowless Organization. Judging from the information currently revealed, it seems to be similar to the Sand Dust Organization, or even weaker. This is because ordinary magic shadows cannot double their power like Kaxiu.
The reward they received for defeating the Shadow was severely reduced.
Just as Kaxiu gradually fell into deep thought.
The woman in black opposite said, "Mr. Levi, please join us. I know your fighting skills are very famous in the martial arts gym near Edelweiss Middle School, and your strength is quite good. But we are facing the Demon Shadow, a group of vicious monsters."
"They are not human. They kill and eat people! The fragile human body is just prey in front of them. Even a well-trained combat expert cannot face a claw-level phantom one-on-one. This is the absolute limitation of the body structure!"
The woman in black seemed to say with some emotion: "Even the elite combat members of my Shadowless Organization cannot fight one-on-one. They can only be restrained with the help of other members' guns. So, Mr. Levi, please give up your confidence in your own strength. If you really encounter the Demon Shadow, it will only hurt you!"
On the sofa opposite, Kaxiu's expression did not change.
He took a sip of tea: "Are you done?"
The woman raised her eyebrows and couldn't help but say, "I have a piece of news I want to tell you. According to the intelligence of the Shadowless Organization, five Steel Claw-level Demon Shadows and one Red Eye-level Demon Shadow have come to Baichuan City! They are still lurking in the city, ready to hunt humans or us parasites at any time! The Demon Shadows's commotion has attracted the attention of us Shadowless People. The headquarters is planning to send half of the elite members of the six eastern counties to monitor them at any time!"
"after all… "
"That's enough power to destroy a medium-sized organization!"
"You said that there are five Steel Claw-level Demon Shadows and one Red Eye-level Demon Shadow in Baichuan City?" Kaxiu suddenly looked up and responded.
"That's right, so join our Shadowless Organization!"
The woman in black stared at Kasu, as if she wanted to see a hint of fear in his eyes.
But unfortunately, it didn’t.
"Actually... never mind... come with me."
Kaxiu stood up and suddenly said something out of the blue.
"?"
The woman was confused but still followed Kaxiu.
A basement door suddenly appeared in front of her.
