Chapter 39: The Lethal Scream

  Kawano Ryoko's body shuddered as she inserted the hardware, her roots throbbing with a dull ache, and for an instant, she lost control, almost letting out a loud cry. Only by crying out could her muscles shift from contraction to exhilarating expansion, releasing the pent-up hormones that had been bottled up for so long.

  However, Huo Ya choked up. Because this deadly cool cry had once cost him a heavy price.

  One year ago, he was the leader of a special task force in Dai Nippon Yamaichi Special High School. He received an order from the headquarters of Tenkō to carry out the assassination of "Shinchi 1" with Phoenix, who was dispatched by the headquarters.

  This was the golden duo that had successfully completed assassination missions many times, and Tōyama Kagekazu shook his head and said "Yoshi" several times in a row. He thought that the head of "Shinji 1st" had fallen like dust floating in the air. The Imperial Japanese Army's plan to attack Shanxi would be implemented ahead of schedule due to the success of Operation "Fengtian", and it would be unstoppable.

  "Phoenix Fire" disguised as a newlywed couple, obtained all the necessary documents for ordinary merchants in Manzhouli to go out, and went to a luxury hotel in Taiyuan to hide. This is where "Shanxi No. 1" and Xiao Wu often meet secretly, and the Special High Police have already locked it down.

  A lonely man and a widow have been alone in the same room for three whole days and nights, but their target has yet to appear. Every time Huo Ya sees Feng Huang, he can't help but think that if only they could pretend to be together for real, how great it would be! But Feng Huang never looks at him with serious eyes, what a one-sided love!

  Kuroba's strong competitive spirit, knowing difficulty and rising to the challenge, allowed him to go from a humble farm boy to becoming an excellent spy for the Empire of Japan. His success was largely due to his own wise mind, but also partly due to the courage sparked by his competitive spirit.

  Since he started, he has been searching for her weaknesses with a calm mind and finally found the breakthrough. Feng Huang is just the opposite of Kawano Ryoko, who likes money, not excluding valuable items.

  That afternoon, when the two were strolling through a shopping mall together, Feng Huang's legs stuck together as soon as she saw a pair of chicken blood jade bangles.

  The shopkeeper looked up and glanced at the two men, seeing that they were wealthy outsiders, he was delighted in his heart. He took aim at Feng Huang's every move, nodded and bowed to them: "Honorable guests, honorable guests, today when I opened my shop door, the auspicious magpie was chirping on the tree opposite, I thought there must be noble guests visiting, and it really did!"

  Huojia had long had the idea of making a move on Feng Huang, and was just thinking about how to win her over without losing too much face when the shopkeeper lent him a helping hand.

  "Give me the package," Huo Ya said, reaching into his pocket for money, but his hand was caught by Feng Huang. He was startled, thinking that although he had found her weakness, he had misjudged the breakthrough point, and turned to look at her.

  The phoenix grasped the fire crow's hand, pulled him in, and pressed her body tightly against his, even giving him a flirtatious glance.

  "Good eyes, madam! You truly have a discerning eye, and spotted the treasure at a glance." The shopkeeper continued to attack Feng Huang with sugary words, pointing at the chicken blood jade bangle and chattering incessantly: "This treasure comes from Xi'an, and is an ornament of Emperor Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty, worth a whole city!"

  "What's with all this nonsense? Hurry up and pack it for me." Huo Ya stopped the shopkeeper with great disgust.

  "Good." The shopkeeper wrapped the chicken blood jade bangle in red silk and handed it to Huo Que's hands with trembling hands, then flattered: "Madam is lucky to have such a generous husband, that's the blessing of your past life!"

  "Feng Huang smiled and said, 'You don't know, sir. My master is normally very stingy, but today he's willing to spend a lot of money, all because of the great Tang Dynasty Empress Wu Zetian, and also because of your mouth that can talk so eloquently like Ji Xiaolan.'"

  At this time, the sky was near dusk, and it had arrived at "Jin Di No. 1" to finish military affairs and go to the inn for a stroll.

  Huā yā wasn't interested in chatting with the shopkeeper, so he put away the chicken blood jade bangle and took Phoenix's hand back to the inn. As usual, he searched around but didn't find any trace of "Jīn Dì 1st", then went downstairs to eat with Phoenix.

  "To celebrate our beautiful and lovely phoenix, no, the heroine of the Tang Dynasty, Wu Zetian, who obtained a priceless treasure." Huo Ya looked at Feng Huang, took out a red silk handkerchief from his pocket, slowly unwrapped it, and took out a chicken blood jade bracelet to wear on her snowy white wrist. He then said: "Let's celebrate with wine."

  "Come on!" The phoenix took the chicken blood jade bangle in her hand, and then continuously tapped a few mouthfuls on the face of Huo Luan, before beckoning to the shopkeeper to bring up wine.

  Good mood, good wine. The two of them drank until they were tipsy and then went upstairs hugging each other. After opening the door, they both glanced at the two beds, feeling that one of them was like a third person staring at them, so they kicked that bed with their feet, and then hugged each other onto the more pleasing one.

  At this time, a group of plainclothes suddenly blocked all the passages, and "Jin Di 1 Hao" arrived with Xiao Wu in the midst of the crowd. The two of them went upstairs shoulder to shoulder, heading towards the VIP room that was specially prepared for them.

  "Ah!"

  "Ah!"

  A happy shout of a man and a woman came from the room, and plainclothesmen flew in from all sides like hornets.

  The fire crow and phoenix may have three heads and six arms, but they cannot withdraw in a short time unless they strip themselves bare.

  The two men were captured and awaited the verdict of "Jin Di No. 1".

  "What's for dinner?"

  "Having an affair."

  "Whose side is he on? Whose?"

  "Feng Huang hastily replied: 'Whichever side is stronger in this original city, we will surrender to them.'"

  "This is the largest fetal movement in Yuan Cheng's belly, you can go and cast your votes."

  "As soon as the words 'Jin Di No. 1' were spoken, his subordinates immediately tore off the bedding from the bed, ripped it into ropes and bound the radiant fire crow and phoenix together, preparing to throw them down from the building."

  "We are law-abiding small traders from Manzhouli, with all our documents in order. How can you treat outsiders like this?"

  Slow!

  "Jin Di No. 1" was a man who thought thrice about everything, and he felt that the young couple's honeymoon and their happy cries were not much louder than Xiao Wu's cries. Just for this, the Shanxi Army police guard had someone die, which was indeed somewhat unjust. So, he waved his hand and said: "Let them go. Let them roll far away, out of sight, out of mind."

  The two men's hearty laughter turned the assassination plot carefully planned by the Fengtian Special Agency into a bubble. As the first choice for the captain of the Crow Team, Huo Ya lost his chance to get promoted and rich, Mei Zhizi was appointed in an emergency from Manzhouli to Datong. The phoenix will make amends for its crime, using its beauty to infiltrate the Datong Security Police Station, capturing the pockmarked police chief and becoming his concubine.

  After parting with Kawano Ryoko halfway, and she went to meet the upper beak again, Huo Ya thought of his happy and painful past with Feng Huang, and his heart was always owed.

  At this time, Huo Luan couldn't help but think of Feng Huang. He yearned to see her, perhaps for the last time in this life.
