Chapter 1173: The Targeted King

Chapter 1173: The Targeted King

Sakata Ryo, a former technical employee of Kaiba Corp, was responsible for the daily operation and maintenance of Momentum.

Judging from his resume, he was definitely an old employee. He has worked diligently in the company and has not made any major mistakes for many years, but he was fired by the new president for insignificant reasons half a year ago.

The editing records of each of the several entries just searched in the Kaiba Corp server had this person's name.

What does this mean?

Did this guy delete all the information about Yuei Vu, Kaiba, and others? Or is there something else going on?

Maybe he could ask for answers to these questions in person.

Sakata Ryo's personal information was detailed in the Kaiba Corp server. His education, job search experience, and personal life were all clearly recorded, including his current address.

That was also the next stop for Yuei Vu and Yusei tonight.

Well, that's what he said, but in fact, the work of rushing was basically given to Yusei. Yuei Vu even felt that Yusei was like his tool man, helping him run errands and do work, and maybe even playing cards for him when necessary...

But he had no choice, after all, he was bound to Yusei's duel disk for no reason. As a spirit, Yuei Vu's current state with Brother Crabhead was similar to the legendary "one heart and one body", and he couldn't act alone.

Fortunately, he was lucky, and Brother Crabhead was quite easy to talk to.

Of course, this may be related to Yuei Vu's gorgeous halo of "the strongest duel king of all generations", and no duelist could remain indifferent to such a title.

In addition, Yuei Vu saved Brother Crabhead from the police when he first appeared. If he hadn't appeared at the right time, Brother Crabhead would probably still be in the detention center.

Yusei Fudo was the one who valued ​​companions and bonds the most among all the protagonists in history. His emphasis on brotherhood may be second only to Li Xunhuan, who even gave up his wife and property to his friend. Brother Crabhead never forgot anyone who has done him a favor, and he would not hesitate to help the other person.

In a moment, they arrived at Sakata Ryo's address.

Considering that Yusei was still a wanted criminal, it was obviously not feasible to enter through the main gate. This era was different from the past. The gates of all residential areas were connected to the Internet. If a fugitive tried to sneak in, he would be discovered immediately by the gatekeeper.

However, for Yuei Vu who could summon spirits, there was no difficulty.

Yusei parked his D-Wheel in a hidden place nearby, and then Yuei Vu directly summoned the Dark Magician Girl. Under the cover of black magic to conceal his tracks, he took Yusei and landed directly on the balcony of the target floor.

Yusei, who was still a newbie, was quite surprised by this.

Although he firmly believed that cards were alive like the protagonists of previous generations, it was obvious that Yusei was not as close to the predecessors in the previous two games in terms of affinity with spirits.

He had never thought that a Duel Monster could actually be summoned like this, and even carry a duelist into the air, sneak in with a duelist in stealth... and even pick locks!

But soon they found out that they were wrong.

This was not a good sign.

At this time, the two of them actually had a vague premonition that they were about to find something here.

They walked through the bedroom, followed the corridor to the living room, and successfully found the owner of the house they were looking for.

Sakata Ryo, the operator who was fired from the Kaiba Corp.

At this moment, he – or more precisely, his body – was lying on the floor. It had begun to rot, and the stench of the corpse came from this.

And the cause of death... Yuei Vu thought it was quite obvious.

Because the corpse still had a duel disk on its arm, and a bunch of cards were scattered on the floor.

It was very obvious that he died from playing cards.

After a short silence, Yusei said: "Mr. Yuei Vu, do you smell anything?"

Yuei Vu pointed at himself: "Do you think I can smell anything in this state?"

Yusei glanced at Yuei Vu in ghost form, thought about it, and seemed to think that what he said made sense, so he said directly: "I smell a strong smell, a bit like... like some kind of oil."

"Oil?"

"Yeah, very obvious."

Yusei hesitated for a moment, his eyes quickly swept across the living room, and his sight quickly fell on the lighter thrown on the table.

"Maybe..."

He picked up the lighter, lit the flame, and brought it close to a wall in the living room.

Soon, some kind of fuel on the wall was ignited by the flame of the lighter. The flame extended along the trajectory that had been planned long ago, like an invisible pen writing on this wall.

Soon, a line of words outlined by burning flames appeared on the wall.

"Jack Atlas will die tonight."
