The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"Huh... this kid bought so much food in one go. I'm afraid most of it will have to be put in the refrigerator after I go back."

As agreed, Mikael put a lot of food back into the car. He closed the car door softly. The sunset had already exited the stage, and the night had completely fallen. A ray of cold wind rushed along the street, raising the broken hair on Mikael's forehead a little.

However, the wind is not just chilly, it is also mixed with many things - not to mention the different smells of food in each household, the sound alone is enough to be called uneven, and some people have already used up their food. Rice, running water and dishes collide fiercely. Some families have just started cooking. The explosion of fire and oil, and the fight between pots and shovels are endless. Some have already turned on the TV, and the family is sitting together and enjoying themselves. The child was crying hysterically, as if the sky would collapse.

Michael looked up at the starless night sky again, and then laughed:

"Alright alright."

Like he's talking to himself, or maybe not, who knows?

He walked slowly, like a social animal slowly walking home after work, rather than a driver and bodyguard who still had a job.

It took him about five minutes to walk back to the intersection where he and Mei Yi separated, and it took almost the same amount of time to find the ramen shop.

Mikael opened the door and entered the store. Like the previous stall, there were not many people in the store. After all, most of the residents here were left-behind elderly people and children. There was little traffic and low spending power.

Precisely because there were few people, Mikael just took a glance and realized that Mei Yi was not here.

"Hello, master."

He walked slowly to the counter and greeted the idle ramen chef.

"Hello! Would you like a bowl of noodles?"

Seeing Mikael shake his head, the ramen master grimaced again.

"I just want to ask, have you ever seen a girl with long purple hair and a black peaked cap?"

Hearing Mikael's question, the ramen chef immediately showed a vigilant look - the man in front of him was wearing something suspicious combined with his temperament. In addition, this kind of behavior of deliberately inquiring about other people's whereabouts, could it be something bad? A member of the club, right?

Fortunately, Mikael doesn't have the habit of reading other people's hearts at will, although this is not difficult, otherwise he would be somewhat dumbfounded. After half a day, apart from Mei, I had only greeted two humans, and both of them regarded him as a member of a delinquent society. Is he that scary...

With that vague vigilance, the ramen master tilted his head and thought carefully, then shook his head like a rattle.

"never seen it."

"Huh? Really not?"

"No, there are only a few diners in our store, and there are only so many people hanging around in front of our eyes all year round. If there are new faces, there is no way I won't remember them."

Before he finished speaking, Mikael turned around and walked out. He had already sensed that there was indeed no trace of Mei's presence in the store.

Seeing this man appearing and leaving talking to himself, the ramen chef glanced at him in confusion.

Mikael pursed his lips tightly and endured it until he walked out of the ramen shop, then the corners of his mouth slowly raised.

"It's interesting. You finally couldn't help showing off your flaws? But, you dare to rob me? You are very confident!"

…………

"Da da……"

Mei Yi stepped forward step by step. She swallowed the non-existent saliva and rolled her eyes, trying to see her current position clearly.

But everything around him was dimmed by the dark night. No matter how hard he tried, all he could see was one building after another that was almost copied and pasted.

"What's going on? Is he my father's competitor? Did he follow me all the way? Where is Mikael? Is Mikael working with these people?"

Meiyi was thinking wildly in her mind, and her steps couldn't help but slow down a little. A cold and hard tube-like object immediately pressed against her lower back.

"Let's go! Stop playing tricks!"

Meiyi instinctively turned her head, and her waist was quickly hit by the pistol again.

"Be honest! Don't turn your head!"

Mei Yi took a deep breath and took another trembling step forward.

Considering the special situation of her family, Mei Yi has not been taught what to do if she is kidnapped since she was a child.

The first thing is to stay calm, try not to have verbal or physical conflicts with the kidnappers, and don't try to resist.

Secondly, you can use language to test and attract the other party's attention.

There are many more things to note later, but unfortunately, except for the first point, this whole set of teachings is of no use at all.

She never saw the face of her kidnapper, but she was walking on the way to the ramen shop when someone suddenly put a pistol on her waist.

Recalling the shadow under the streetlight before, the other person was a girl about the same height as her. From the sound of her voice, she might be between her and Mikael in age. But this girl, or the team behind her, was obviously extremely sophisticated and didn't give Mei any chance to take advantage of her.

She was asked to walk at a pace one step per second, so that she would not be stuck in place, nor would she be able to speed up and escape when she encountered a shadow that obscured her vision.

Her head was not allowed to move, and her already dim sight was further restricted. Coupled with the fact that she was wandering around in the alley, she had no idea where she was now.

As for the so-called attracting attention with words, Meiyi certainly tried it, but no matter what she said, the other party would not answer. And if she spoke in a louder voice, the muzzle of the gun would immediately come up as a warning.

Since the other party adopted the method of kidnapping, they must use her as a hostage to seek something from her father, who is the president of ME Club. Therefore, from an absolutely rational perspective, the pistol is actually a meaningless threat.

Since he wanted to kill her, just shoot her in the street. Wouldn't it be unnecessary to kill her after kidnapping her?

But she couldn't rely on this to provoke unscrupulously. People who could do things like kidnapping were generally not rational people. If she offended them, even if it didn't kill her, it would still be harmless to shoot her limbs.

Therefore, occasionally stopping for a step or two and showing weak resistance was the only struggle she could do.

Although this only delayed a little bit of time, no matter how powerful Mikael was, he couldn't catch up... Ugh!

Meiyi's footsteps stopped in place again, and as expected, the pistol was unceremoniously pressed against her waist again.

But this time, the girl behind him didn't urge her.

The sound of footsteps came from the shadows of the alley ahead, getting closer and closer.

The alley is narrow and can barely accommodate two people walking side by side. Mei Yi's shoulders were held down, and then she was pushed to the left.

It seemed that the girl behind her was trying to avoid the pedestrian in front of her. Leaning to the right not only allows you to get out of the way and reduce the other party's attention, but also hides the pistol held in your right hand.

But the strange thing is that when the footsteps were only two or three meters away from the two of them, the owner of the footsteps stood still.

Tonight is a new moon, and the light conditions are not good. There are no street lights in the alley, and the abandoned high-rise buildings on both sides of the alley cast shadows. In addition, the only light source is that the new moon is covered by dark clouds. Even though With her eyes widened, the girl who was the kidnapper could only vaguely see a tall, but not particularly strong, figure.

She swallowed, already expecting something.

Mei Yi also opened her jaw and slowly exhaled.

The next moment, the moonlight fell through the gap in the dark clouds, and the whole world became slightly brighter for a moment.

"Snapped!"

The silencer made the sound of the gun low. It was not even as loud as the sound of the bullet hitting the cement wall, but it was enough to echo in the long alley for a long time.

The girl looked in front of her in disbelief. Just as she pulled the trigger, the man in front of her completed the series of actions of pulling Mei away, holding the silencer of the pistol, and fastening it to her waist.

Yes, when a pistol appears in a story, it must be fired, but firing does not mean a hit.

The bullet scratched the fabric on the waist side of the man's suit, and maybe even scratched his flesh, but that didn't matter at all, it was just a scratch at most.

Although the girl is young, she is also a mercenary with many years of mission experience. Seeing this situation, she did not try to wrestle with the man in front of her, let alone blindly pull the trigger to empty the magazine out of nervousness. Her response, at least to her It seems perfect to me——

She released the pistol immediately and wasted less than a tenth of a second pressing the magazine release button. The magazine fell freely and was held in her palm. She quickly backed away and with her left hand pulled out another pistol fastened to her lower back - due to length restrictions, this one was not equipped with a silencer, which was somewhat troublesome. But of course this will cause headaches for others.

So far, she had just heard the first beat of the second hand on the watch on her right hand. Next, as long as she holds the gun at her waist, she can knock down the man with the experience of countless shootings.

And what does the other party have in his hand? She had observed it for a long time before, and judging from the situation of this guy when he paid the bill, he should not be carrying any firearms. The only risk was the gun she left behind. Although the magazine was removed, there was still a bullet waiting to be fired in the chamber.

But the girl was not afraid. She also wore a bulletproof insert in her jacket. From this distance, she could easily block the Parabellum bullet weakened by the silencer. And she had led the eldest daughter of ME Club around for so long. If he could catch up, his breath must have been scattered, not to mention her heartbeat. In addition, with such dim light, she did not think that the other party would target parts other than her torso.

But the reality was not what she expected. She did draw the gun, but before she could point it at the man in front of her, the latter threw the gun shell she left behind as if he had expected it, hitting her for the first time. Two guns.

"Snapped--"

The two guns collided together, and the girl couldn't hold it at all. She could only watch desperately in the corner of her eye as the two guns turned into two black lines and flashed away.

When she tried to raise her knees again and used her right hand to pull out the dagger in her boots, it was already too late. The opponent had already slid forward and kicked her right in the abdomen, sending her flying instantly.

"Walk!"

It seems that the other party did not intend to kill her all. Instead, as soon as he repelled her, he took the eldest lady of the ME club and ran away together.

"whispering sound!"

After half a minute, the girl regained her composure and pulled herself out of the garbage pile - "Hey... this guy is really merciful..."

If Mikael didn't kick her to the garbage pile aside, but let her fly ten or twenty meters in the air, she would definitely have broken several bones.

"Tsk! I lost to...him again."

The girl opened the hood that had been on her head, and her blood-red eyes were particularly bright in the watery moonlight.

She tapped her watch and then spoke directly:

"Bad news, the target was rescued by the opponent's bodyguard. Ural Silver Wolf, the next step is left to you."

"Don't worry, I won't miss it."

Listening to the other party's confident tone, Natasha suddenly laughed silently.

…………

Running wildly, she just followed the figure in front of her. At first, Mei Yi still had the strength to look back from time to time to see if the girl had caught up. But after only two minutes, the whole world in her ears seemed to be filled with only the sound of gasping. .

There was a smell of blood in her throat, and the trachea further down seemed to have been cut with countless cuts by blades, and her lungs felt deeply numb. She even felt in a daze that her alveoli were exploding one by one. .

Mikael just pulled her and ran for almost a kilometer without hesitation. Only then did the two of them see the exit of the alley, which was as complicated and lengthy as a sheep's intestines.

"嚓——"

Mikael's feet almost scratched sparks on the ground and stopped three meters away from the entrance of the alley.

Meiyi relied on her inertia and wanted to continue rushing out, but was pulled back by Mikael. The two of them had their backs against the rough and cold wall, but Meiyi could no longer hold on after only two or three seconds. Her legs and feet became weak, and her whole body kept sliding along the wall. The night in her sight also became brighter. Although it was not as bright as day, everything she saw was rimmed with white light, and after a while there were countless tiny mayflies floating around. stand up.

"Take a deep breath! Open your mouth wide-"

In a daze, she heard Mikael shouting from the side.

She trembled and opened her mouth. Unexpectedly, whether it was an illusion or not, a large amount of blue wind poured into her lungs. After only half a minute, the heavy burden on the respiratory system caused by the vigorous running was completely gone. It’s not that her legs and feet were so weak that she couldn’t move forward, it’s unimaginable that she had sprinted for two consecutive minutes at a speed far exceeding her own 100-meter sprint speed just now!

"This...what is this?"

She raised her head, but only saw Mikael's side face stained by the moonlight.

Even after running at such a high speed, Mikael's chest almost didn't rise and fall, as if he didn't need to breathe. At this time, he was leaning against the wall and looking outside warily.

"I'll explain this to you later. Let me talk about the current situation first - there is a fifty-story high-rise building at five o'clock. The terrain center of Changkong City is low-lying. From here all the way to Yamate's Raiden Mansion, standing on the top of that building is... You can see it clearly. If I were the other party and set up a sniper rifle there, the sniper range could reach Sakuragi Town. If the sniper is high enough, it is not impossible to block the bridge leading to the DC area."

Mei looked at Mikael blankly. He outlined the nearby terrain clearly in just a few words. He was completely different from the new driver who had to take a long way to come to the gym.

But Yayi had no time to comprehend, so she quickly asked:

"Then what should I do now? How about I call dad..."

"Need not."

Mikael turned his head and showed a relaxed smile.

"It's just a small problem, just wait for a minute."

Meiyi didn't understand what he meant, but since the other party had such plans, judging from his previous performance, she naturally chose to believe him.

Time passed by minute by second, and with the roar of the engine, Meiyi raised his eyebrows at first, and then became a little frightened - it couldn't be wrong! The sound of the engine was the same car that took her to and from school every day. She couldn't hear it wrong!

But... isn't the driver beside her?

She suddenly grabbed Mikael's arm tightly.

"Um?"

The other party snorted in confusion.

Meiyi quickly let go of her hand. The shock she received was a bit big. She just confirmed that the other person was indeed a real person with warmth, and not just a ghost.

"Stab-"

The wheels left a long black trail on the cement road, which was extremely clear even at night.

The back seat door opened towards the entrance of the alley, and before Mei could react, Mikael held her in his arms.

"When you get in, lie down and don't show your head!"

Without waiting for her answer, with a "Let's go", she flew directly to the back seat, and the door magically closed automatically.

Mei held her head and curled up in the back seat as Mikael ordered. As if she thought of something, her curiosity suddenly overcame her fear. She raised herself up with her arms and looked at the driver's seat ahead——

Empty.

In other words, the car drove here by itself?

She rubbed her eyes, and when she opened them again, Mikael was already sitting in the driver's seat. He stepped on the clutch, shifted gears, and stepped on the accelerator in one go, and the car sped away.

"That's not right...just now...there was no sound of the door opening or closing..."

Meiyi felt dizzy and everything was unreal until her hand touched something. She lowered her head and saw that the food she bought earlier fell into the car due to the sudden braking.

…………

"Tsk! It's so difficult to deal with...heh...what the hell!"

On the fifty-story building named by Mikael, the girl known as the Ural Silver Wolf stared at the scene in front of her in stunned silence.

"Raven, are you sure your information is correct? There is only one bodyguard and driver around the target?"

"What do you mean? Are you doubting that I can't count? I'm not old enough to be blind yet!"

"You're right, but the car just drove over by itself."

"ha?"

"The license plate is the same as the one just now. The driver doesn't seem to have gotten into the car. Can you catch up and take a look?"

While complaining, Bronya moved the scope of the sniper rifle to Sakurashita Town, but there was a high flow of people there, so she quickly moved to the bridge southeast of Sakurashita Town.

She turned the bolt and slowly inserted a special bullet.

At that distance, it was impossible to hit the people in the high-speed car, but she could try to hit the car itself.

But before she could wait for the car to show up, a stern and helpless voice sounded in her earphones:

"Forget it, this mission failed, you two should come back first."
