Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 156: Thunder and the Watcher (66)

Dragon Raja 5

The operation was not completed until the early morning. The girl’s physical condition was very strong and she struggled back from the brink of death. When the old nurse went in to tell the young man, the young man, who was like a taut bow, suddenly relaxed, showed a tired smile, and solemnly thanked the nurse.

The old nurse went out to get him a glass of water, and in those few minutes, the young man disappeared.

It was assumed he left through a window, but that window was at least 20 meters off the ground. How did he manage to get down there? Spider-Man? One of the guards, a former member of the Self-Defense Forces’ special counter-terrorism unit, declared it impossible, saying it was impossible for a human to do.

The young man left five bundles of non-consecutive US dollars, probably to pay for medical expenses, and left a note thanking the hospital for its help. Someone would come to pick the girl up from the hospital, but until then, the hospital must keep the secret.

At the end of the note was a stamp with a gentian pattern. After reading it, the dean nodded and told the doctors and nurses involved in the treatment not to tell anyone.

The dean had heard of this emblem and knew that even among the underworld clan this emblem had a special status. Genji, the leader’s Genji.

The Genji clan never misused their emblem, especially as a seal. Could it be that the person who came was the head of the Genji clan?

This was indeed a misunderstanding on the part of the dean. No matter how close his relationship with Minamoto Chisei was, he couldn’t possibly possess the ring with the crest of the Minamoto clan. However, the pair of short-curved swords were a gift from the Eight Snake Clans, and the Minamoto clan’s crest was engraved on the handles. Lu Mingfei had stamped this mark for the people who would came to pick up Nuonuo to see.

He didn’t dare to hand Nono over to the Crane Group because he didn’t dare to fully trust them. Tokyo used to be one of his home bases, but now almost all of the people who had fought alongside him were dead.

“She’s a very stubborn girl, isn’t she?” The old nurse covered Nuonuo with a blanket and sighed softly.

Even though she was seriously injured, she kept clenching his fists tightly, as if he wanted to hold on to someone tightly.

The antique sports car raced down the highway, and Lu Mingfei overtook it like a swimming fish. They were indeed in a hurry. The Crane Group members said that under the powerful EVA network offensive, Kaguya-sama couldn’t hold out for much longer and would be breached within a few hours.

The moment Kaguya is breached, EVA’s electronic tentacles will penetrate all major networks in Japan at the speed of light, monitoring email, bank accounts, transportation systems, and even customs. She could even turn the cameras everywhere in the streets and alleys into her own eyes, making Tokyo, a forest of steel and concrete, transparent to her.

Therefore, they must leave the country before Kaguya is conquered. After last night’s incident, all ports are under strict surveillance by the Coast Guard. The airport was a safer option. Buy two international tickets to anywhere and take off before EVA invades Japan. Kaguya will immediately delete their exit records and they will become invisible again.

Lu Mingfei hasn’t figured out what to do next, or he’s simply too lazy to think about it. He’ll just cut a path through the mountains and build bridges across the rivers. He placed a small flag on the map on his phone near the sea in northern Siberia, and he’ll go there even if it rains knives from the sky.

Lu Mingfei slammed on the brakes and the sports car slowed down abruptly. There was a traffic jam ahead. All he could see were red taillights and all he could hear were car horns.

This is very unusual. Japanese people consider honking their horns in the street to be extremely impolite. Although Tokyo is a place with very congested traffic, it is still rare for the highways to be completely blocked.

They were less than two kilometers away from the airport, but they were stuck here.

Lu Mingfei patted Chu Zihang on the shoulder and said, “Go ahead and see why the traffic is blocked.”

Chu Zihang came back quickly, “At the intersection where we exit the highway ahead, all the lights are red, and all the cars are stuck.”

No wonder even the Japanese honked their horns angrily. They thought there was something wrong with the traffic signal system. It was really unreasonable that such a failure occurred during the morning rush hour.

But Lu Mingfei knew what was going on. The traffic police weren’t to blame; they were probably frantically trying to find a solution in the monitoring room, but they couldn’t find the problem. Within Tokyo, every traffic light at every intersection would flash red, paralyzing traffic throughout the city because EVA had successfully hacked into the traffic signal system. Compared to other networks, traffic signal systems were the easiest to hack into, a fact he had learned in class at Cassel Academy. Kaguya’s firewall was collapsing, and EVA was well aware of their current movements. She hadn’t yet been able to monitor the airport and docks, so she’d first paralyzed the traffic lines leading to them.

There was no doubt that a new hunting group was on their way. They had little time left, and if they didn’t leave Japan, they would be trapped in this transparent forest.

Did they mean running to the airport? A few kilometers wouldn’t be a problem for him and Chu Zihang, but even if they ran to the airport and booked the earliest departing flight, they would still need to go through security and wait. Kaguya’s firewall was already starting to collapse. Would that be enough time for them to board the plane?
