The Goddess Shines on America

Kyoto is an inland city located in the southern part of Kinki, Kyoto Prefecture in western Japan. It is the eighth most populous city in Japan. Kyoto City also forms the Kyoto metropolitan area together with southern Kyoto Prefecture, western Shiga Prefecture and parts of Osaka Prefecture. Its population is about 2.56 million, and it is also part of the "Keihanshin Metropolitan Area".

The service industry is the industry that accounts for the largest proportion of the city's economy, among which commerce and tourism are the most developed, and its rich sightseeing resources are mainly concentrated in the local ancient capital landscape. In Kyoto City, there are at least nineteen famous ancient temples alone, and oil-paper umbrellas and a high-grade silk textile are also highly produced here. For many foreigners, traveling to Kyoto is like returning to Japan a hundred years ago.

Taking advantage of the perfect season in November, Alice and Shiho Miyano came to Kyoto to enjoy the bright red maple leaves.

The weather happened to be a bit cool, and there was still a breeze. The red leaves all over the stone road were gently blown from time to time, and the maple trees on both sides were rattling non-stop. There are few pedestrians on the road, and at the end of the road is a traditional ancient temple. A quiet atmosphere that is absolutely different from Tokyo surrounds everyone here, which makes people feel naturally calm.

"Your parents chose the laboratory here, it really couldn't be more suitable." Alice said with emotion again: "An ancient cultural capital, a famous academic city, looking at the whole of Japan, which city is more suitable than Kyoto?"

"It's just that the distance from Tokyo is a little farther away. It's nearly 300 kilometers away, and it takes a while to take the Shinkansen."

"You are hypocritical, three hundred kilometers, my dear, just from my Los Angeles to San Jose, that is more than five hundred kilometers away. You still have the Shinkansen as a means of transportation here, and I count the plane there The time of take-off and landing is much more time-consuming than this delay."

"Yes, yes, America is such a big territory~"

Miyano is dressed very ladylikely today, wearing a pair of brown low-heeled leather boots, denim trousers and a beige European windbreaker, and a brand-name bag in his hand. Even on this road, he can enjoy a super high rate of return . In contrast, Alice, who was only wearing a coat, looked much simpler, but that energetic temperament was not something that Miyano could casually imitate.

The two came to Kyoto for a trip, thanks to the reminder from the boy surnamed Ito, it's a pity that there is nothing wrong with him when two women travel together. Yesterday, they visited the anti-cancer project laboratory established by the Miyano couple. As a department of the umbrella company, Alice invested 50 million US dollars in a short period of time. With sufficient funds, it will not be difficult to recruit personnel and purchase experimental equipment, and everything will soon be on the right track.

However, although Alice has reason to believe that the I virus can help to develop specific anti-cancer drugs, and even directly produce anti-AIDS specific drugs, but now is not the time to reveal the truth to these people. The establishment of a new post is not a one-day or three-day effort, even if her relationship with Miyano has been warming up in the past few months, there is absolutely no reason to easily confess this kind of secret.

So on the second day after the visit, the two walked together in Kyoto. There are too many ancient temples and shrines to visit here, and November happens to be a good time to enjoy the maple leaves. No matter what you do, it is far wiser than staying in the laboratory.

However, it is destined that there will always be some people who don't like to let others live a peaceful life.

"Wait a moment."

Alice stopped suddenly.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing her friend's expression, Miyano felt uneasy, because of a strange feeling, the hairs all over her body stood up. Is it because of Alice's expression, is it because of her, or did something suddenly appear around her, and she just discovered it in advance? In an instant, Miyano began to think wildly, because she could really feel the feeling of the hairs all over her body.

"We... seem to be being followed."

Alice didn't rush to release the mental power scan, but just the most basic state is enough to give her a sensory ability far beyond ordinary people. It's not just one, there is always a shadow of something running around, following her, absolutely unmistakable, Alice recalled, it seemed that the first time she vaguely felt them... was when she just walked out of the hotel.

Miyano didn't understand so many causes and consequences, but seeing Alice's serious expression, she said nervously, "Stalking? Could it be that there are idiots walking around? This is a public place in broad daylight. Who would be so bold?"

"It should be... just because it is a public place in broad daylight, it can be followed wantonly."

"...you feel it?"

Alice couldn't help laughing. That's right, the acquaintance time is limited, and Miyano doesn't know his abilities at all, so I really can't explain the relevant details to her. However, the feeling of being followed became more and more obvious. It seemed that the other party was a little aggressive because he was not found along the way.

"Zhibao, my Blackwater Security Company has nearly 3,000 elite special force soldiers. Believe me, that's right~"

Alice walked around. Finding someone in a less populated area is as difficult as searching in an area full of people. Although there are too many obstacles in the latter, if the scene itself is sparsely populated and there are few targets for observation, it will certainly not be easy to find someone.

I didn't want to search directly with mental power, and I didn't want to look around to let the other party know that I was exposed. After a brief look, I didn't find the target. Alice took Miyano's hand and said: "Let's find a more suitable place, we should be able to find the target there. Hook each other out."

Miyano really couldn't calm down anymore, what was going on? I was going for a good walk, but my friend suddenly said that I was being followed? Well, as a mere 18-year-old billionaire, Alice Wang did have a hundred reasons for being followed. Is she involved in some wealthy fight? No, the United States is not Japan, that is, some companies want to assassinate their competitors, no, no, it is the plutocratic conspiracy theory that is prevalent in Japan, and the US should be the government, right?

Alice walked quickly. She didn't know that her friend was thinking about these things, but even if she knew, she would just laugh it off.

Soon, the two of them bypassed the current road leading to the main entrance of the temple, and headed towards a side road. Now is the time when office workers are working hard, and this street is not a place frequented by tourists, let alone residential buildings, so there are almost no people on the street. It is definitely a place suitable for stalking, and it is also a good location to deal with the off-tail man. Alice has memorized the map of Kyoto very clearly.

But Miyano couldn't calm down.

"What exactly is going on?"

"Are you sure that we were followed? By whom? Could it be that you and the Yamaguchi-gumi angered the Inagawa Kai? It doesn't make sense... Is it just a simple Okino? You should give me an explanation."

"You said that you fired your second house. Could it be that someone hated you and wanted to kidnap you for ransom? On the contrary, there are many people who want to kidnap you for ransom. Maybe it's not easy to meet in the United States. But in Japanese..."

After being nagged a lot, Alice snapped back angrily: "I'll find out in five minutes, what are you talking about."

"I know...you have practiced martial arts?"

Well, although I was a little too panicked at the moment, a girl with a high IQ is smart. Although this answer is somewhat far from the truth, it just let Alice know what to do.

At a corner with a good location, both of them stopped.

Miyano didn't intend to be a human shield or a vanguard. Regardless of whether Alice's so-called feeling was reliable, she hid far away in the middle of the road. This is a street with a normal width, and there are several-storey office buildings on both sides. This place is really good. Even if Alice can't deal with the so-called trailing men, as long as she yells a little, she will definitely be able to attract many heroes. Bar?

Everything is very quiet here. The atmosphere of the ancient city of Kyoto is famous all over the country, and the loudest noise is nothing more than temple rituals. If there is really a trailing man following all the way, someone with good ears may really notice it.

The two of them didn't have to wait long, when there was a sound of footsteps approaching.

Miyano raised her eyebrows, and she could hear them very clearly. This kind of footsteps were obviously running away, which is definitely not what normal people should have!

She looked at Alice. The latter was constantly moving her hands, ankles and wrists. It seemed that she was going to have a big fight?

Then, quickly, three figures appeared in succession at the same time!

Miyano: "Oh my god..."

"boom!"

However, before she finished exclaiming in surprise, Alice directly hit the first person's neck firmly with a palm knife!

"Damn it, she found out!"

It was actually in Cantonese, Alice raised her eyebrows, the knife in her hand was like light and electricity, and easily knocked down the second person!

However, the third man actually pulled out a pistol!

It was useless, Alice just swept his fingers across his wrist, and the man suddenly felt a tingling pain in his nerves, the pistol fell naturally, and then Alice held it in her hand.

Then hold the knife!

In less than ten seconds, three adult men who were a head taller than the two girls were all murdered by Alice!

"Ah...it looks a bit complicated..."

Alice looked at Miyano, who was dumbfounded.

"What are you... What's the situation with us? Kidnapped? That man still has a gun?"

Miyano was already confused by the sudden series of events. Alice swept the three people on the floor and knocked them unconscious with a knife.

"I think... I have some clues, Shiho, please help the porters. We need to interrogate them."

"……What?"
