"So, why are you staying in a place like this? You're the host of the Honkai Will, yet you're staying in a place like this?"
It was too much to make her stay in such a cramped space!
Did they want to force a landing during the flight and make her fall into the sea?
"My mission this time is to cover them from outside, to prevent targets outside of the mission from appearing. And don't forget the identity of the crimson moon; as soon as I appear at the airport, the military will definitely discover me."
This was all because of her past fame; Inaba Tsukiyo had performed missions in Russia before.
She and Bronya were both on the Russian government's wanted list, but there were no specific facial features, only that they were both girls and both very petite.
To prevent herself from being exposed, which would lead to the Russian government discovering Schicksal's Valkyrie here, Inaba Tsukiyo could only stay in the landing gear bay, and then be dropped off during the plane's flight.
After all, Russia is a neutral country, and Schicksal already has an agreement with these neutral countries not to allow any military or Valkyrie to appear in their territory.
However, if one entered Russia as an individual, the government would mostly not care too much, turning a blind eye.
Moreover, Fu Hua and Kiana would wear qipaos this time, making them look less like Valkyries on a mission and more like ordinary students.
(fuhai: Divine Realm Immortal! I ask you, are you afraid!?)
Of course, Fu Hua was not yet very clear about Otto's purpose in sending Kiana this time, but Fu Hua was already preparing to use Kiana as bait to attract the attention of the guards.
Kiana's personality made it hard to associate her with being a Schicksal Valkyrie, and the mission location this time was the Queen Hotel. Kiana would surely be happy to see something like public expense dining.
However, this was tough on Inaba Tsukiyo; she couldn't stay in the cabin and had to hide in this cramped space, unable to let others discover her whereabouts.
Actually, not going to the cabin wasn't the main issue; the crucial point was that the landing gear bay had no soundproofing, and Inaba Tsukiyo's keen hearing could very clearly pick up the propeller's sound.
If she hadn't desperately endured, this plane would probably have been destroyed by her and fallen into the sea before it even reached its destination.
"Oh~ the crimson moon, I certainly know about that. But for you, with your strength, to still bully those humans… those guys are really something, to have a trump card like you for dealing with them."
This feeling was like facing a three-on-one situation and feeling underestimated, so one just played a Joker bomb.
"Anyway, don't you also have a so-called safe house in Russia? You can just use the power of the Herrscher of the Void to teleport directly there. With your power, it should be very easy to do, right?"
Sirin's power allows her to open a space gate, capable of teleporting herself and other objects to any location, but teleportation requires stamina.
Inaba Tsukiyo happened to have no shortage of stamina, so even long-distance teleportation was not an issue.
"I know, we haven't reached Russian territory yet. I need to wait until the plane is closer before I can teleport. By the way, using a space gate shouldn't affect the plane's flight, right?"
If opening a space gate caused the plane's landing to become an emergency landing, then things would be terrible.
"Tch. These humans have installed anti-Honkai Energy equipment on the plane. Even if you use a space gate, it won't have much impact."
Most planes nowadays are equipped with anti-Honkai Energy devices; it's just spatial teleportation, how could anything happen?
The plane slowly headed towards Russian territory. As it was about to reach the local airport in Russia, Inaba Tsukiyo, who was in the landing gear bay, was suddenly sucked into a space gate.
A short while later, in a room in an apartment building in Russia, a space gate suddenly appeared, and Inaba Tsukiyo emerged from it.
This is the safe house she arranged in Russia to carry out her mission. It seems that those guys in the government have not discovered the existence of the safe house.
There is nothing else in this safe house. Besides a bed, there is only a bedside table.
Opening the bedside table, you can also see unused energy bars inside, which are her emergency rations.
"Is this where Sister Tsukiyo used to stay when she was a mercenary? There's nothing here."
Because she hasn't been back for several years, the entire house is covered with a thick layer of dust. Just taking a step will stir up a cloud of dust.
"It's just a safe house. As a mercenary, it's impossible to stay in one place for too long."
"Then how did Sister Tsukiyo buy this house in the first place? Even if Sister Tsukiyo is rich, it shouldn't be easy to buy this kind of house, right?"
Under the circumstances of being wanted by the Russian government, and not being able to use her real identity to register, how could she buy this relatively safe house?
"Part of it was obtained through missions, and the other part... just like this."
Her index finger kept rubbing her thumb, the meaning self-evident.
As long as you have money, even if you are an international criminal, those guys who want money will help you get a legal identity to buy a house, and you don't need to worry about the other party selling you out afterwards.
As [crimson moon], Inaba Tsukiyo's reputation still exists, at least those ordinary people dare not be presumptuous in front of Inaba Tsukiyo.
Seele smiled and flew around the room while Inaba Tsukiyo was preparing, looking at the room where Inaba Tsukiyo once lived.
There is really nothing special about it. The only special thing is that there is nothing in this room.
Empty, it doesn't look like anyone has ever lived here, just like an uninhabited apartment.
'Before coming to the orphanage, what kind of life did Sister Tsukiyo and Bronya live?'
Seele thought she was very familiar with everything about Bronya and Inaba Tsukiyo, but after entering Inaba Tsukiyo's body, she realized that she didn't understand Inaba Tsukiyo at all, and could even be called unfamiliar.
"What's wrong? Seele. Hurry up, we need to get to the Queen Hotel as soon as possible. We still have a mission to carry out."
"Eh? Ah! I got it! Wait for me, Sister Tsukiyo."
'Forget it, what's the use of thinking about these things now? It's all in the past, now just focus on the future.'
The past is already in the past, what's the point of caring about those things now? It's better to go with Inaba Tsukiyo and the others to pursue an unknown future.
The Queen Hotel is a very luxurious hotel. Although it is not the luxurious level of eighty stars, it still has five stars.
Fu Hua and Kiana had already entered the hotel before Inaba Tsukiyo arrived. If she guessed correctly, Kiana is eating something now, and Fu Hua went to perform the mission alone.
The last time she went to Jiuyou to perform a mission, Kiana almost ate up the funds for their operation in the restaurant.
"So the result is that I'm here gnawing on chocolate, and they're eating in a five-star hotel? I kind of want to hit someone, Seele."
At first, she didn't feel anything, but when she thought that Kiana was eating and drinking inside, while she was blowing the cold wind outside, this treatment didn't seem fair no matter how she thought about it.
"There's no way, who told Sister Tsukiyo that your mission is to prevent Anti-Entropy people from suddenly appearing. And Seele doesn't think the food in the restaurant is as good as what Sister Tsukiyo makes."
"You're just saying nice things, how can my cooking compare with those chefs. You think too highly of me, Seele."
Shaking her head, Inaba Tsukiyo turned to look at the Queen Hotel building.
Suddenly, a violent explosion occurred somewhere in the building. From the place of the explosion, a small figure could be seen jumping out before the explosion.
"That's... Class Monitor? Isn't she on a mission? Why did she jump out of the hotel? And..."
Inaba Tsukiyo narrowed her eyes. Although the distance was far, she could clearly see that Fu Hua was not wearing the blue cheongsam, but a men's shirt and a dark blue jacket.
Of course, the most important thing is not why Fu Hua's clothes were changed to men's clothes, but that this guy's lower body was not wearing anything at all.
This is a bit interesting. What exactly did this guy experience in the few hours she was away? So exciting?
Inaba Tsukiyo glanced at Seele, Seele nodded, her body turned into particles and disappeared in place, and soon returned to Inaba Tsukiyo's side.
It's just that when she came back, Seele had an obvious blush on her face, as if she had seen something shy.
"Just like what Sister Tsukiyo thought, Sister Fu Hua she... really didn't wear... However, her face seems to be injured, it should be the result of a battle."
"I see... I understand. Is it deliberately being caught, and then extracting information from the enemy's mouth?"
This approach is a bit like a special agent deliberately being caught in order to obtain information from the enemy, and then obtaining information from the other party's mouth while being tortured.
I remember... it seems that there is a guy with the code name 'Black Widow' who likes to use this trick very much. It seems that Fu Hua also likes it very much.
It's just that the guy who interrogated Fu Hua this time seems to like taking off other people's clothes.
"Huh?"
Just as Inaba Tsukiyo was about to join Fu Hua, she suddenly noticed something, stopped, and turned to look behind her.
The crowd behind Inaba Tsukiyo was attracted by the explosion at the Queen Hotel, and there was nothing worth paying attention to.
It's just that she clearly noticed just now that someone was watching her nearby, but the other party was also very vigilant and was not discovered by her.
After thinking for a while, Inaba Tsukiyo ran quickly towards the alley behind the Queen Hotel.
After she left a certain distance, a middle-aged man with white hair hiding in the crowd ran towards the direction Inaba Tsukiyo left.
Soon, the man found that Inaba Tsukiyo had disappeared from his sight.
"Was I discovered? I originally planned to use the noise from the crowd as cover, but she still escaped?"
Got the news about Inaba Tsukiyo from the conservative faction of Anti-Entropy. She is very sensitive to sound. General tracking can easily expose her position.
As a result, she was still discovered. I originally planned to have a good talk in a place where no one was around.
"Who are you talking about escaping? Mr. Stalker."
