The Demon's Menu-Chapter 1085: The Rules Changed Again!

"What?"

Ryosuke exclaimed in shock.

However, the woman’s voice on the other end of the phone line did not respond any further and simply hung up.

"Hello, hello?"

Ryosuke repeatedly called out, but it was no use.

Click.

After placing the receiver back on the cradle, Ryosuke furrowed his brows, speculating about the truthfulness of what the woman’s voice had just said.

Then, swiftly, Ryosuke picked up the phone again.

"Hello, this is Ryosuke."

"I just called to speak with Chief Miyamoto, something happened."

Ryosuke didn’t conceal anything and recounted his recent experience in full detail.

In those brief few seconds, Ryosuke had already thought things through clearly.

Whether the woman’s voice spoke the truth or not, it had ’nothing to do with him’.

He just needed to report the facts as they were.

As for the rest?

If it was false, he would continue as planned.

If it was true?

Ryosuke looked at Urashima.

Urashima had also heard the voice through the handset just moments ago.

This young police officer clearly wasn’t prepared and seemed unsure of what to do next.

Now, faced with Ryosuke’s gaze, Urashima stated resolutely.

"I leave it in your hands, Chief Ryosuke."

"I will follow your lead."

"Hmm."

"If it’s really as I suspect... maybe, our opportunity has arrived."

Ryosuke said this.

Urashima looked puzzled, he semi-understood but, upon further thought, was again perplexed.

"Do you think the person who killed Miyamoto will only kill Miyamoto?"

Ryosuke asked in a lowered voice.

"Of course!"

"She probably had a grudge against Miyamoto and will flee after killing him!"

The young man nodded assertively.

"No!"

"She won’t!"

"She’s targeting the entire ’Blossom Cherry’!"

Ryosuke shook his head firmly and declared.

Seeing Ryosuke’s demeanor, Urashima finally understood.

Hiss!

He sucked in a breath of cold air.

"Chief, isn’t this too dangerous?"

Urashima’s voice was extremely low.

At that moment, he almost wished he possessed a secret technique that would allow him to transmit his voice silently.

Because he had figured out what his chief was planning to do.

It was utterly insane!

One false move would mean utter destruction.

"It is."

"But I’m willing to take that risk!"

Determination shone in Ryosuke’s eyes.

Although he still did not know why Miyamoto was killed, he knew this was his chance.

A chance to resolve the issue in the most straightforward and decisive manner possible.

Very dangerous!

But worth taking the risk!

Seeing the determination in Ryosuke’s eyes, Urashima helplessly shook his head.

He knew Ryosuke all too well.

This Ryosuke, once determined, was beyond any dissuasion.

Since that’s the case...

He joined.

That was his initial thought, after all.

He just didn’t expect it to be so dangerous.

But no matter how dangerous, for Urashima, it was not a reason to back out.

"Count me in."

Urashima said this.

"Thank you, I..."

Ryosuke looked at his young assistant, feeling a surge of emotion. He knew how dangerous the plan was, and Urashima’s complete trust in him warmed the middle-aged man’s heart.

He was even somewhat at a loss for words.

"Let’s get started."

"Time waits for no one."

"First, we pick a target."

Urashima was eager to get going.

"Okay."

Ryosuke nodded.

...

A tall woman dressed in black put down the phone in her hand.

Seeing her companion put down the phone, another lady couldn’t help but say,

"Hui Lixiang, doing this could expose you."

The lady’s voice contained no resentment, but rather a sense of regret,

As if she had missed out on some fun.

"At least it’s better than introducing yourself voluntarily—don’t think I don’t know. If Hui Lixiang hadn’t grabbed the phone first, you would have definitely been the first to pick it up and announce who you are!"

At this moment, the last lady in the room spoke.

Her voice was soft and gentle, yet there was a sense of firmness in her tone.

"Kaoru, how can you say that about me?"

"I would never do that!"

"Xin, am I right?"

The lady whose inner thoughts were revealed immediately hugged the woman with a gentle voice, started to use the facial cleanser, and turned her head to look at Hui Lixiang.

Before Hui Lijing could speak, the hugged lady’s face turned red instantly.

"Stop it!"

"Let me go!"

"Yuli, you fool!"

The lady known as Kaoru said this while twisting her wrist, throwing off the lady who was hugging her.

But the lady named Yuli, who was thrown out, did not fall to the ground. Instead, with Agility, she flipped and stood firmly on the ground.

"Kaoru, you actually want to hit me, and I was even thinking of sharing my snacks with you later."

Facing her friend’s words, the woman named Kaoru didn’t care at all and just scoffed.

At this time, it was Hui Lixiang who stepped in.

"Alright, we need to leave."

"Those guys might be fools, but they’re not idiots."

"They will act soon."

Hui Lixiang continued while walking towards the exit. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

"What does it matter?"

"With my Strength, no matter how many come, I can send them flying!"

Yuli said with full energy.

"Be careful."

"According to the current information, ’Blossom Cherry’ is much stronger than we thought."

"They just hid their capabilities."

The calm Kaoru reminded.

"Yes, hiding."

"So..."

"That’s why we have to make them all expose themselves."

Hui Lijing said this and went to the window, leaping out.

Yuli and Kaoru, who were accompanying her, also leapt out.

The former touched her toes to the ground repeatedly, each time steady and Swift.
