The Naming of the Night

"Qing Chen, how did you get through your most difficult days?" Yang Yang sat by the Amstel River, feeling the biting wind. "After I rented your house, I heard many stories about you from my classmates."

"The hardships that your classmates know about are probably not the most difficult things in your life," Yang Yang said calmly. "So I'm very curious. Logically speaking, you should be a psychologically extreme and cynical person, but in fact you are calmer than most people I have met, and you do not have an antisocial personality."

Qing Chen sat calmly on the stone embankment of the Amstel River and said, "I didn't get out of that time; it just passed by on its own."

He continued, "Even now that I'm older, I can't help but feel envious when I see people talking about their fathers with such pride. So I'm not as calm as you might think; I just know what choices I need to make."

No one expected that the person who caused the chaos among Amsterdam Time Walker would come to the riverbank and enjoy the Nordic scenery after causing the trouble.

Yang Yang's complexion has become much rosier.

Kabri, meanwhile, stood not far behind the two, bundled up tightly, her mind in turmoil.

He personally used Spartan Spears to bombard Kamishiro and Kashima, and he was well aware of the consequences of doing so.

At that moment, Kabri wanted to stop, but he felt as if his body no longer belonged to him. A force like a rule bound him, draining his mental energy and sending all eighteen Spartan Spears hurtling out...

Kabri felt very weak at that moment...

After he finished up the mess, Kabri thought Qing Chen would hide away and wait for things to escalate, but he didn't expect the other party to be so calm.

This Black friend kept hoping that someone would find the two guys and call W and Mike from the Future Organization to kill them!

In this way, he can regain his freedom!

However, things didn't go as planned. After Qing Chen controlled Kabri to bomb Kamishiro and Kashima, all the Time Walker simultaneously gathered their forces.

Instead of continuing to search for Qing Chen in Amsterdam, people gathered together to prevent further attacks or to eliminate their scattered individuals one by one.

So Kabri's hopes were dashed.

Qing Chen swaggered through the streets and alleys without anyone noticing.

At one point, Kabri recalled what had happened before. They thought Qing Chen would cause trouble in Amsterdam, but he ended up going to the Barents Sea.

They thought the other would appear in the Barents Sea, but the other went surfing in the Greenland Sea instead.

This young man seems to have mastered psychological warfare to the extreme, always managing to lead everyone by the nose!

Yang Yang asked curiously, "Bombing them with Kabri will at most make them suspicious of the Future Organization. Kabri is an open card, too obvious, which is why it might cause problems."

Because everyone immediately realized who had made the Spartan Spears spear, they began to feel that something was amiss.

Even if the Future Organization, it should be more thorough, more cautious, and more covert.

Or, more directly, let Mike take action and wipe out Kamishiro and Kashima in the shortest possible time with overwhelming force.

Unless He Jinqiu intervenes, Mike has no rivals in Northern Europe.

Qing Chen's current approach feels crude and inadequate to everyone.

After listening to Yang Yang's words, Kabri thought to himself, "Yes! What you said makes perfect sense!"

However, Qing Chen laughed and said, "No rush. The process of stirring up trouble has only just begun. From now on, we need to do one thing after another to keep them from calming down. As long as they can't calm down, that's enough."

Yang Yang tilted her head. "Also, there's a flaw in this whole thing. You pretended to be from the Future Organization and attacked Kamishiro and Kashima, but you didn't attack Jiuzhou. This makes everyone wonder if Jiuzhou turned Kabri or something."

Kabri, standing behind them, suddenly realized, "Yeah, the girl is absolutely right!"

Qing Chen just smiled and said, "This is not a flaw. How can we not involve someone as powerful Boss He? If they want to target Jiuzhou, then this is just right."

Kabri was shocked. This guy was so wicked that he even schemed against his own people!

It's not that Kabri has a lot of mental activity; it's just that he only has mental activity left now, and he can't do anything else he wants to do.

Just then, Kabri heard the sound of leather shoes approaching from afar and then passing by him.

Kabri watched the tall, slender figure walk up to Qing Chen, leaning on a black scepter, and said with a smile, "So it really was you who did this. But could you also bomb Jiuzhou? Now everyone suspects me and the Future Organization. I really don't want to be banned from entering the remaining Nordic countries as well. I don't want to start a massacre."

At this moment, the only one that hasn't gathered its forces back is Jiuzhou.

Qing Chen was a little embarrassed when he saw the person in question come to his door, "Hahahaha, we are all compatriots, how can you lay a hand on a compatriot? Chinese people don't fight Chinese people."

Kabri thought to herself, "That's not what you just said..."

He Jinqiu laughed and said, "You've met Boss Zheng, haven't you? It's truly disheartening. Aren't you also a member of Jiuzhou? Why didn't you come to Jiuzhou when something happened, but instead went to Kunlun, who has no roots overseas? Isn't this a clear indication that you don't trust Jiuzhou?"

Qing Chen was even more embarrassed. "Boss He, you've misunderstood. I just didn't know Jiuzhou's phone number, otherwise I would have definitely called you."

"It's alright," He Jinqiu said with a smile. "I didn't come here to cause trouble. I just wanted to tell you that Jiuzhou overseas will always be the best partner for all Chinese citizens. You can use me to incite war, no problem. At worst, I'll just fight my way back to China. I've done that before."

Qing Chen knew that behind those words lay an overwhelming aura of bloodshed.

Some people online say that dozens of members of Jiuzhou were trapped in the Middle East by the Future Organization, and that He Jinqiu fought his way out and then led more people back.

Everyone said it was just a rumor, but Qing Chen believed it was true.

Just then, He Jinqiu looked at Yang Yang curiously and asked, "I wonder if you would be willing to join Jiuzhou? Perhaps in the Inner World, the Hu Corporation Intelligence Agency can have more cooperation with Spade."

Yang Yang smiled and said, "Okay!"

He Jinqiu felt a mix of emotions. "He really is just like that kid. Oh well."

After finishing his speech, Boss He. He left, leaning on his black scepter, looking just like a true English gentleman.

Yang Yang looked at Qing Chen: "What are the plans next?"

Qing Chen thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait for the wind to come."

In a safe house somewhere in Amsterdam, Kamiyo Kura inspects all the firearms in the armory.

A subordinate standing behind him reported, "Boss, it's confirmed. Jiuzhou was indeed not attacked."

Kamiyo Kura's expression turned cold. "Even so, it's possible that this was intentional in the future, designed to make us doubt Jiuzhou. Therefore, we cannot confirm the truth of the matter at present."

"So what do we do?"

"Go to the headquarters of the Future Organization yourself," Kamiyo Kura said. "Right now, regardless of whether it's the Future Organization or not, we need to face the problem head-on and calm the chaos down. So, I only need you to do one thing: tell the Future that we are currently willing to believe that what Kabri did has nothing to do with them, and hope that we will not escalate the conflict."

"But what if it's the Future Organization causing trouble?" the subordinate asked.

"If we make a statement and their personnel changes are still very strange, then it means that they really did it. I will send someone to contact Kashima and Jiuzhou."

"Jiuzhou?" his subordinate Heikawaito, asked in confusion. "Isn't that our enemy?"

Kamiyo Kura sneered, "If Kamishiro and Kashima are gone, who will join him in restraining the Future Organization in Europe? He Jinqiu won't just watch us all get crushed by the Future. If all that's left in Europe is Jiuzhou and the Future, even Jiuzhou can't hold on, He Jinqiu won't be able to either."

"Understood," Heikawaito said. "I'll head over to the future headquarters in Amsterdam now."

Kamiyo Kura glanced at him and said, "Remember not to bring weapons, so as to show our sincerity for peace. Also, don't bring too many followers, or it will look like we're going to swagger around."

Heikawaito was stunned for a moment. What if he, a key member of the Shindai organization, went and the Future Organization simply killed him without hesitation?

However, he could not disobey Kamiyo Kura's orders.

The safe house in the Shindai is 5 kilometers away from the headquarters of the Future Organization.

However, just halfway there, the tire suddenly burst with a loud bang.

Heikawaito frowned. "What's going on?"

There were only him and the driver in the car. The driver quickly got out and said, "Sir, this is a new car. There shouldn't be anything wrong with the tires. It must have been punctured by some nail on the road."

Heikawaito suddenly felt uneasy. "Then hurry up and change to the spare tire."

As he waited in the car, he became increasingly uneasy. If there were snipers here, wouldn't he be a target to be shot at while sitting in the car?

With that thought in mind, Heikawaito got out of the car and prepared to walk to a used car shop on the street to wait for the spare tire to be changed.

It's not that he's being cautious; the atmosphere these past two days has been just too tense, so he has no choice but to be careful.

However, just as he got out of the car, a young passerby brushed past him.

In that instant, Heikawaito felt as if something had been wrapped around his wrist, and then his body stiffened.

The next second, he watched as he turned around and calmly said to the driver, "You can fix the car here. I can't wait any longer. I'll walk to the future headquarters myself."

The driver was taken aback. "Sir, there are still two kilometers to go."

Heikawaito heard "himself" say, "It's alright, it's very close."

When all of this happened, he was like an observer, able to hear what he was saying and feel what he was doing, but his body was completely out of his control.

Like a puppet.

Heikawaito was terrified. He felt like he had become someone else's Puppet Master, filled with extreme fear, yet unable to scream.

As this key member of the Divine Era organization in Europe slowly walked towards the Future Headquarters, two security personnel from the Future Organization stopped him when he arrived in front of the villa.

"Heikawaito? What are you doing here?" the future security guard asked.

Heikawaito said, "I represent the Kamishiro organization and I need to see W or Mike."

The security guard frowned. "What brings you to see these two bosses all of a sudden?"

As they were talking, the group stepped forward to begin searching him.

However, at that moment, the tall, white man, W, pushed open the door, dismissed the security personnel, and approached Heikawaito: "I regret what happened to the Kamishiro Organization in the past two days, but our Future Organization would also like to clarify in person that we did not do that. After Kabri returned to Amsterdam, he did not rejoin the Future Organization. If possible, the Future Organization is willing to provide the Kamishiro Organization with a new headquarters as a token of our sincerity."

W has made the right gesture.

Because he also knew very well that the more chaotic things were at this time, the worse it would be.

As an A-level expert, Mike could boast that he could wipe out Kamishiro, Kashima, and Jiuzhou all at once.

However, W, as the Future Organization, must remain calm.

He knew that if things really got chaotic, it was hard to say who would have the last laugh.

At that moment, W looked sincerely at Heikawaito.

Heikawaito: "Oh!"

A mouthful of saliva sprayed onto W's right eye socket.

It wasn't that W couldn't avoid it, but rather that she genuinely didn't expect Heikawaito to do something like this...

W slowly wiped the drool off his face. "I understand you're angry..."

"Terrible!"

W: "..."

At that moment, W suddenly shouted, as if remembering something, "Mike, don't move..."

Before the words had even finished, dozens of red rays appeared to slash through Heikawaito's body from a window on the second floor of the villa.

They killed Heikawaito by force.

The future headquarters is located in a bustling downtown area, with tourists coming and going at the entrance.

When Mike made his move, everyone screamed and scattered in all directions. No one noticed that a strange young man was also running away with a smile on his lips.

W shouted angrily, "How can we kill him now?! Even if it's just for show, we have to let him go back!"

Mike chewed his gum nonchalantly and said, "So what if they're killed? The Gods' Generation organization's power in Europe is negligible. We'll wipe them out sooner or later."

W lamented, "Even if we're going to kill them, we should at least have a plan to wipe them all out! What kind of nonsense is this, killing just one envoy?! We should be gentlemen, not vicious thugs!"

Mike paused for a moment, then asked, "Is there a difference?"

W responded, "One is getting into a street fight, the other is all smiles on the surface but secretly plotting to kill someone's entire family. Don't you think there's a difference?"

Mike shrugged. "It seems the latter one is definitely more exciting. I'll keep that in mind next time."

Just then, Heikawaito's driver arrived after finishing repairs, only to witness Mike kill Heikawaito.

Sitting in his car, he shakily made a phone call to Kamiyo Kura, "Boss, the Future Organization has directly killed Commander Kurokawa..."

A Kamiyo Kura came through the phone. "What?! You beasts! Those bastards from the Future Organization, they really are declaring war! Come back right now... Hello?!"

Before the driver could even reverse, he had already been located by the Future Organization's mole.

This time, W didn't hesitate. Since the first one had already been killed, there was no point in keeping the second one alive. "Kill him."

W sighed as he looked at Heikawaito's corpse. He knew that from this moment on, even if he wanted to avoid war in the future, it would be impossible.

The Shindai are an extremely vengeful organization; they will not let the killing of the other party's envoy go unpunished.

However, there was one thing W couldn't understand.

They came to Amsterdam, clearly wanting to watch the Time Walker organizations from several Eastern countries fight amongst themselves, and then they would reap the rewards from the sidelines.

How did things suddenly change, and how did they become the first to be drawn into the center of the struggle?

What exactly went wrong?

W murmured, "Kabri... the key lies with Kabri. Finding Kabri might make everything clear."

After saying that, he turned to Abby, the black man in the villa, and said, "Abby, I want you to personally lead a team to track down Kabri's whereabouts."

Abby asked, "Don't I need to participate in the battle? Mike killed Heikawaito today, and I feel like a major battle is about to break out."

W shook his head. "Finding Kabri is a more important matter. I need to know who's behind this."

He looked at the now empty street in front of the future headquarters.

Suddenly, I felt that somewhere in Amsterdam, a mysterious Joker was hiding, toying with and mocking everyone.

W looked at Mike: "Have your people keep an eye on the safe houses in Kamishiro and Kashima as soon as possible. Oh, and don't miss the ones in Jiuzhou either."

Mike's eyes lit up. "W, are you finally going to wage war against them?!"

W thought for a moment and said, "You have to be careful of He Jinqiu. Don't let him get close to you. I have a feeling that this person is more dangerous than I think. We failed to kill him in the Middle East, so we can't let him get away this time."

Mike laughed, "So you finally decided you didn't want to hide it anymore. Don't worry, with us working together, all of Europe will be ours."

Just then, a subordinate said, "Boss, we just received news that Kabri has attacked Kamishiro's safe house again..."

W: "..."

At this moment, He Jinqiu stood alone atop a clock tower in Amsterdam, smiling as she looked down at the bustling city below.

The voice of a member from Jiuzhou came through his Bluetooth headset. "Boss, Mirai and Kamishiro are preparing for war. Kamiyo Kura has disappeared without a trace. On Future Organization's side, hundreds of members are rushing from all over Europe. It looks like Amsterdam will become the main battlefield."

He Jinqiu smiled and said, "Although I don't know how Qing Chen did it, things are developing in a positive direction."

"What do we do now?" the Jiuzhou member asked.

"Do nothing. Just keep an eye on the house. I want to see what Qing Chen is up to."
