Chapter 15: Blending
With no electricity, the fire escape is left with a thick darkness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The flashlight was left for Xu Youran, but for Xin Yuan, it didn't affect his speed of going downstairs at all, and his powerful perception ability could easily form a three-dimensional pattern of the surrounding environment in his mind, and it didn't matter if he could see clearly or not.
Part of the reason why he chose to return to these potentially dangerous areas now is indeed the same as what he said to Xu Youran, he really needs enough information to make a more accurate judgment of the current situation, because he found that the current situation here has changed dramatically - originally he thought that the goal of this carefully planned attack was to kill the last big man - this is a comprehensive analysis of the timing of the attack, the auction arrangement, the course of the battle, etc., And now the addition of those mobs complicates the situation.
It is likely that the masterminds of the attack had prepared in advance to cover up the truth, diluting the plot of a premeditated murder into a ********-inspired riot; But again, it is difficult to say whether the attack itself was part of the riot and was intended to achieve some political end.
The two directions may look similar, but the results are likely to be very different, with the former taking the attacker to stop as soon as they have achieved their goal, while the latter could turn the situation into a widespread sabotage that would have endangered their lives in the event of a major fire.
Of course, the bigger reason is King Theodon's Stone Ghost Face, and I have to say that the chaos caused by this sudden attack has created a golden opportunity for him to obtain the Stone Ghost Face, which he must not miss.
By sending Xu Youran to a safe place and then turning back during this time, he estimated that the battle below should have a result. The attacker wins, if the target is successfully killed, then the aftermath should be started to prepare for retreat, if it is just defeated and the target escapes, then the next thing is the pursuit; And if that target wins, the best way to evacuate in the event of a riot outside is to go to the top floor and leave by helicopter instead of staying where you are. In any case, the fourth-floor auction hall is likely to turn from the initial focus of the battle to a temporary vacuum point, and this is the most appropriate opportunity to start.
The only thing to worry about is that someone will take the stone ghost noodles away or break them, but the probability of happening is not large, the actual value of this stone ghost noodles is not high, and it has been sent back to a relatively safe warehouse, and no one should notice it in a short time.
He left behind him one step at a time, and finally, there was a faint movement in front of him, and it seemed that he should be close to the target.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps at the bottom of the stairs, it was the sound of running, hurried, continuous, short.
Xin Yuan stopped, leaning against the blind corner of the staircase, quiet as a predatory beast hidden in the darkness about to launch a deadly attack.
A person, of medium height, male, short of breath, emotionally excited, unprofessionally trained, wears sandals......
Xin Yuan blinked, this information had already formed a general image in his mind, and he also had a plan to deal with it.
Seconds later, a native thug in a flower village shirt, beach pants, darkened complexion, and armed with a machete appeared in his field of vision. And this thug was still panting, indulging in the excitement of being the first to arrive at the scene of the robbery, and didn't notice Xin Yuan in the dead corner on his side, and when he suddenly felt that something was wrong, he saw a black shadow flash in the corner of his eye, and then his cheeks hurt violently, the sound of teeth cracking came one after another, and his brain was spinning, and before he came back to his senses, there was a huge pain in the back of his head, and then it was darkness, and he completely collapsed.
Seeing that only a large piece of the back of his head was left on the ground, Xin Yuan threw the rubber rod in his hand without hesitation, picked up the machete, quickly searched the other party, and found that he pinned the dagger to his belt, and then changed the other party's flower shirt to himself, his hair was messed up, and his own short stature was no different from those indigenous thugs at a rough glance in a dimly lit place.
Not long after he dressed up, there was the sound of running footsteps below, Xin Yuan lowered his head slightly and walked down, and soon ran into several thugs running up.
When those thugs saw that Xin Yuan had no suspicion at all, they just shouted a few times, and when they saw Xin Yuan "well-behaved" to the side, they laughed and said a few words of local language, and then ran past Xin Yuan's side.
In this way, after passing through several groups of thugs along the way, Xin Yuan finally reached the fourth floor.
A few floors above, he could already faintly hear the mournful cries and shouts, and when he reached the fourth floor, it became clearer, and when he entered the floor, he saw that a large group of thugs had poured in, and began to loot wantonly, and many people who failed to escape in time in the gunfight in front of him suddenly became the playthings of the thugs to vent their emotions.
Xin Yuan ignored these tragic scenes at all, he cautiously observed the surroundings, and soon noticed that the mob was mixed with some people who were acting strangely. Those people looked similar in appearance to the thugs, but they did not participate in the burning and looting, but kept looking around with cold expressions, and kept their hands in their pockets, judging from the outline, they should be holding a pistol inside.
Obviously, these were supposed to be the attackers' group, specially left for surveillance.
Fortunately, there are not many such people, Xin Yuan only saw four, and the thugs on this floor are estimated to be fifty or sixty, Xin Yuan mixed in it, and walked through the auction hall smoothly and came to the back warehouse area.
By the time they arrived, the thick door of the warehouse had been opened, and some thugs were excitedly beating up a few people in shopping mall uniforms in the corner, while the rest of the thugs were moving valuable items out of the storeroom.
Seeing Xin Yuan approaching, a middle-aged thug who seemed to be in charge of the command pointed at him and scolded. Although he couldn't understand the local dialect, from the body language that looked like a big monkey jumping up and down, Xin Yuan understood that it probably meant to let him get out, obviously the thugs here should be a gang, and when they saw Xin Yuan, an outsider, coming to "grab food", they immediately drove him away.
At this time, Xin Yuan had clearly sensed the stone ghost face, which was in the warehouse. He bowed his head slightly, and made a look of cowering but reluctant to leave, and glanced into the storeroom from time to time, as if he would slip in at any moment.
Seeing Xin Yuan like this, the middle-aged thug probably felt that his majesty had been violated, and he suddenly became angry, rushed up and kicked Xin Yuan, kicking him so that he staggered away, and the machete in his hand couldn't hold it and fell to the ground, and then scolded him again to get out of the way.
Xin Yuan seemed to be in unbearable pain, and he didn't dare to pick up the knife, but he still hesitated and refused to move, looking timid and greedy.
After cursing a few words, the middle-aged thug found that it was useless, and came up and kicked Xin Yuan away, which shows that he still refuses to leave like a hyena that smells fishy, the middle-aged thug simply cursed and kicked Xin Yuan out after walking a few steps, and the other thugs who saw this scene pointed here and laughed for a while, and then they didn't pay attention to the matter between the middle-aged thug and Xin Yuan.
One step at a time......
Slowly, after the two of them reached a corner that could block the sight of the thugs in the warehouse, the middle-aged thug was about to kick the leper dog in front of him for the last time and then returned to the warehouse, but this kick was empty, and the leper dog threw himself into his arms, and the waving hands happened to hit his chin.
The jaw hurt only slightly, but the middle-aged thug felt that it was all about his dignity, and he was about to shout and punch the bastard in front of him to teach him a deep and thorough lesson, and the qi that could start from the lungs suddenly stopped after passing through his throat - he found that he could not command his jaw at all.
In a panic, he didn't care about teaching Xin Yuan a lesson, his hands stretched back to his chin, only to feel that it was loose there, and before he could react to anything, he felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and then lowered his head in astonishment, and saw a dagger handle exposed outside his stomach.
Subconsciously looked up along the hand holding the dagger, and then he saw Xin Yuan's calm face and eyes like dark water.
Poof.
The dagger was pulled out, and the middle-aged thug felt that the strength in his body also left with the dagger, but then there was another pain, and the dagger returned to his body, but he did not bring the strength back, and then pulled it out again......
One, two, three......
The middle-aged thug watched the dagger open a hole in his stomach at random, and when his consciousness was about to disappear completely, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind - this seems to be about the same number of times I kicked him.
Then, he lost all consciousness.
