My Avatar is Becoming the Ultimate BOSS

Chapter 266: Salvation Society's Officer, the Warden



[Black Cocoon: How do you know I'm investigating the Light-Eating Bee? I have a collaborator very interested in intelligence on the Light-Eating Bee. Mr. Blue Arc, do you have any leads?]

[Gu Qiye: Seems like you don't know, otherwise you wouldn't be so enigmatic.]

[Gu Qiye: Don't contact me for a while, and don't appear by my side.]

Gu Wenyu raised his eyebrows helplessly, wanting to complain, but then thought that his brother just joined Rainbow Wings and indeed needs to be more vigilant so as not to reveal any hints.

"Brother, can you really manage without me?"

As he was about to send another message, he saw a familiar exclamation mark pop up on the message interface.

[Notice: You have been blocked by the other party.]

"All right then." Gu Wenyu sighed, sprawling on the bed, turning his head to look out the window.

Outside the hotel was a dilapidated alley, with colorful graffiti covering the walls, hip-hop voices laughing and chatting, seemingly recording a TikTok video, sounding noisy, accompanied by the rustling of spray paint. It seemed like some local New York punks were engaging in street art.

Gu Wenyu used the restraint belt to shut the window tightly, then picked up the remote control by the table to turn on the air conditioner. The restraint belt wriggled like a small black snake, slowly returning to his sleeve.

He glanced at the restraint incarnation shrunk in the wardrobe, slowly closed his eyes, and switched his consciousness to the perspective of the second unit.

.....

.....

On the other side, Hokkaido.

As night deepened, the JR express train was about to arrive at Sapporo City, Hokkaido. From the window, the outline of the Sapporo TV Tower was already visible.

Under the pitch-black night sky, the 147-meter-long tower bloomed with a blue halo, sometimes transitioning to silver and purple; afar, Tanuki Koji Shopping Street hung rows of lanterns, the bright lights of the street resembling a warm orange dragon in the night.

Ayase Origami had her head drooped. She had just been awakened by Xia Pingzhou, still feeling a bit sleepy.

Xia Pingzhou withdrew his gaze from the window views, his phone receiving a message.

[Hacker: I and the Bloodline folks have arrived in Hokkaido, where are you guys?]

[Xia Pingzhou: Almost there.]

[Hacker: I'm amazed by you guys; I just saw the big miss's deeds online, now the whole world knows our brigade is back in Japan again, which isn't favorable for our upcoming prison break action.]

[Xia Pingzhou: Doesn't matter, combined we are several Catastrophe Levels, who can stop us?]

[Hacker: Just don't let the Japanese officials invite Rainbow Wings people over, that would be amusing.]

[Xia Pingzhou: Don't jinx it.]

[Hacker: But for now, let's not talk about Rainbow Wings, the opponent this time was already not simple. The superpower user prison in Hokkaido seems to be located in Japan, but its main defense actually comes from abroad, so the prison management belongs to foreign countries.]

[Xia Pingzhou: After all, superpower criminals from around the world are sent to that prison, and since the prison is built on Japanese soil, they have to bear extra risks. Other countries sending higher-level defense personnel is a sort of mutual cooperation.]

[Hacker: Who knows, anyway I found out, the "warden" is a Catastrophe-level superpower user from Germany. From what I understand, in the current prison defense force, only he is Catastrophe Level, all others are small fry.]

[Xia Pingzhou: Catastrophe Level?]

[Hacker: Yes, this is his picture, during the operation, remember to avoid him a bit, leave him to Bloodline and the big miss to handle. They just got the Royal Court treasure, they both probably want to find a well-matched enemy to test their skills.]

Xia Pingzhou was about to type a reply when the photo that popped up on the screen halted his right hand from touching the virtual keyboard, his pupils slightly contracting.

"This is..." he murmured, "Salvation Society member?"

The person captured in his gaze was a man dressed in German military uniform, wearing a military hat. The man wore a bushy mustache, his features constricted and solemn, his eyes bright but seeming somewhat gloomy and stern, cast by the shadow of his hat brim.

Undoubtedly, this was a character who once appeared in the Salvation Society base.

Ji Minghuan hadn't seen this person for a while. Ever since his mentor realized that force and persuasion couldn't make him comply, this "officer" was no longer sent to play the tough guy in front of him.

He remembers his early days at Salvation Society, the officer would often yell and punish him with push-ups in the detention room.

However, no matter what, he simply ignored the opponent, maintaining a fearless attitude.

His mentor contrasted this by adopting a soft approach, attempting to make Ji Minghuan open up to him, akin to training a dog with a whip and candy, but ultimately it was all in vain.

"Salvation Society's officer, turns out to be the warden of the Hokkaido superpower prison?" Ji Minghuan thought, "Didn't expect to bump into him again in this place."

For some unknown reason, Ji Minghuan felt a hint of excitement.

He thought that currently, the Salvation Society was still unaware that the White Crow Travel Brigade had significantly boosted their combat strength in a short period. So even if the mentor predicted the brigade's jailbreak plan, they would likely be able to cause the Salvation Society to lose one or two generals.

In order to successfully jailbreak this time, officers naturally present a barrier that Brigade members must overcome. Capturing him alive would be best, allowing Black Cocoon to extract the Salvation Society base location from him.

With this thought, Ji Minghuan synchronized his consciousness with No. 3 "Yaguba".

Cezar had already carried Yaguba back to the room; the phone that Urushibara Osamu had given him was placed on the bed.

This phone was undoubtedly under hacker surveillance; thus, Yaguba reminded Cezar that it wasn't necessary to carry it when going out. Unexpectedly, it proved useful at this moment.

Yaguba leapt from Cezar's pocket, drifting on black waves, soared in mid-air, dashed over to pick up the phone with its fin, opened the contacts, found Urushibara Osamu's number, and clicked dial.

It placed the phone against its ear, listening to the "beep-beep——" sound on the other end.

"Yaguba, what are you doing?" Cezar was dumbfounded by the small shark's sudden action.

Yaguba raised its fin, putting it in front of its mouth, signaling Cezar to be quiet.

Cezar was momentarily stunned, sat down without speaking, just blinked with curiosity at it.

Soon, a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Are you... the Prince?"

"No, I am Shark-Shark, Yaguba," Yaguba said. "Urushibara Osamu, Shark-Shark's friend is looking for you about something."

Urushibara Osamu pondered: "What's the matter?"

"The Big Fluttering Moth told me your White Crow Travel Brigade is plotting a jailbreak; the target is to rescue prisoners from the Hokkaido superpower user prison."

"The Big Fluttering Moth... Black Cocoon?"

"Yes, that's him." Yaguba nodded, "He also told Shark-Shark to pass on this: if you can spare the warden's life and capture him alive, the Big Fluttering Moth will definitely reward you heavily and can be found for help when needed in the future."

"I see, he's already aware of our plan to that extent." Urushibara Osamu said. His tone didn't convey surprise or shock, as if he had already accepted Black Cocoon's ability to foresee.

"Do you accept this deal or not? Don't waste Shark-Shark's time." Yaguba raised its eyebrows.

"It depends on the situation; the opponent is a Catastrophe-level superpower user after all. Even if we have the upper hand in combat, capturing him alive won't be easy." Urushibara Osamu said calmly. "If we forcefully meet Black Cocoon's requirements, we might not succeed and instead lose one or two members."

Yaguba said, "Alright, you do your best. I'll relay today's conversation to the Big Fluttering Moth."

"Then help me ask him: besides the warden, are there other Catastrophe-level experts in the prison?"

"No," Yaguba cut in, "The Big Fluttering Moth said you can charge in without concern! Capturing the warden is best; if not, it doesn't matter, aim to cut that guy into pieces."

A long time later, Urushibara Osamu's voice came through, still deep and calm, resembling his enigmatic eyes.

"Alright, I'm hanging up."

As soon as he finished, Urushibara Osamu unilaterally hung up the phone. The little shark used black tides to wrap the phone, handing it to the side of Cezar.

Cezar was shocked by this scene and quickly said, "Don't soak the phone in water! The phone will get sick if it does, and then it won't work!"

"Oh, oh, Shark-Shark forgot, is there really such a thing?" Yaguba said casually, yet repeatedly testing the phone's durability.

Cezar sighed, took the phone, and the black tides surrounding the phone dispersed instantly.

Meanwhile, Yaguba rode the black tides back to Cezar's jacket pocket, nestled its head inside again, and pondered deeply.

First, it can be confirmed that Black Cocoon should not directly participate in matters related to the Salvation Society; this way, it can avoid suspicion. But whether it and Cezar should fly to the far side of Japan is another matter, as the Salvation Society still doesn't know the relationship between the 300-meter shark and Ji Minghuan.

"So, was what you said just now true?" Cezar quietly asked, "Did Mr. Black Cocoon really secretly tell you all that?"

"Of course it's true; it's all secretly told to me by the Big Fluttering Moth." Yaguba said lightly, "Cezar, you'll know these secrets when you grow up."

"Alright," Cezar nodded, "Let's sleep. You must be tired flying from China to America, right?"

"Indeed tired, Shark-Shark is collapsing!" Yaguba said, closing its eyes from the pocket, "Good night, Cezar."

"Good night, Yaguba." Cezar glanced outside the window, smiled slightly, walked over, and drew the curtains closed, "Though it's still broad daylight now."

He stretched, fell to his side onto the bed, and slowly closed his eyes.

Soon, both the person and shark fell into a deep sleep.
