Chapter 254: Bureau
readx;? It's a living room that's not too big or too small. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
There was a long table in the hall, on which was placed a quaint oil lamp, and at this time the wick was emitting a fine light, which was not dazzling, but it was enough to illuminate the living room.
There were three men and two women sitting on the seats on the right side of the long table, and four men sitting on the left side, several of them had expressionless faces and grim expressions, and there was a faint trace of killing intent flowing from the depths of their eyes.
In a corner of the living room, a young man squatted on the ground with his legs folded, looking up at the flickering wick in the oil lamp, stunned, not knowing what he was thinking.
This young man's appearance can be described as very ordinary, and can even be described as "inconspicuous", he has long purple hair, his eyes look slightly dull, there is a meniscus-like scar in the center of his eyebrows, the pupil of his right eye is a strange dark purple, and the pupil of his left eye is dull and dull, without any look, obviously blind.
"Brother, Daddy. ”
"Brother, Daddy. ”
"Brother, Daddy. ”
“”
The young man's mouth kept repeating these four words, and his tone was cold, without the slightest emotion, like a machine.
His voice was soft, but because of the silence in the living room, it reached the ears of everyone present.
However, no one paid attention to the boy's words, as if they had long been accustomed to his strange behavior.
On the main seat of the long table sat a man with a disheveled head, his left hand pressed against the long sword placed on the table, and his right hand clenched into a fist to support his chin, and his face was also expressionless.
This person is one of the seven major organizations in the Shenzhou Continent, a member of the Killer Organization Shadow, Di Kui Xing, and Ink Snake!
And this hall is one of Shadow's secret bases.
"Why hasn't Number Three come back yet?"
The ink snake suddenly spoke: "Five minutes have passed since the appointed time. ”
"Your Excellency. The man sitting in the first seat on the right said respectfully, "Do you want me to leave?"
"Not at the moment. The ink snake glanced at the man and said, "Wait another ten minutes, if the third doesn't come back, you're moving, two." ”
"Understood. The man, codenamed "Two," nodded and stopped talking.
The living room was quiet again, and in the dim light, only the soft whisper of the boy echoed through the room.
A few minutes later, a man with a long sword hanging from his waist pushed the door in, then stood at the long table, bowed his head slightly to the ink snake, and said, "My lord, I'm back." ”
The ink snake didn't raise his head, and responded indifferently: "Number three, give me an explanation." ”
He didn't say what he needed to explain, but Number Three understood and immediately said, "There was a bit of an unexpected situation, so it was delayed for a few minutes." ”
Ink Snake asked, "What's the situation?"
A solemn look appeared on No. 3's face, and he said, "There is one more element of uncertainty in this assassination operation. ”
The ink snake frowned slightly, and said, "Go on." ”
"Next to the assassination target Li Wan'er, there is a powerful warrior. A trace of horror flowed in No. 3's eyes, and then he said with a somewhat flustered face: "That martial artist is one of the eight sages in the world, with a sword in his hand, Wu Chen. ”
As soon as the words fell, except for the young man squatting in the corner, the faces of everyone present changed.
"Number three, are you sure?" Huo Ran, a woman sitting on the right side of the long table, stood up, slapped her hands on the long table, and said in shock: "This kind of thing can't be a joke. ”
"You can't be wrong. ”
Number Three turned to the woman and said, "It was the old man who admitted it himself, I don't think anyone would dare to pretend to be the Eight Sages, and there is no need for him to do so." ”
"What's going on? Why would Wu Chen, one of the Eight Sages, protect a singer?" The woman looked excited and exclaimed in disbelief: "Li Wan'er is just a girl born in a poor family, this matter has been verified by the organization several times, and there will definitely be no mistake!
"That's enough, One. The ink snake interrupted her words, then removed the shocked look on her face and said, "As a killer, your emotions are too volatile, sit down." ”
"Yes, sir. Number One immediately realized his gaffe and hurriedly sat back in his seat.
"My lord, what should we do next?" No. 3 asked, "With a martial artist of Wu Chen's level, it is almost impossible to succeed in this assassination of Li Wan'er. ”
Instead of responding to Three's words, Ink Snake said, "There's one thing I'm confused about, and I need you to explain it to me clearly. ”
No. 3 was slightly stunned and said, "What's the matter?"
The ink snake tapped his fingers on the table and said slowly: "If the old man in your mouth is really Wu Chen, the sword in your hand, then do you think he will not notice that you have blended into the security guards?
Hearing this, Three's face instantly turned extremely pale.
"There are only two possibilities. The ink snake continued: "One, he is not Wu Chen at all. Two, he's already discovered your true identity, and"
Before he finished speaking, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he pulled out the long sword on the table with a thud.
Almost at the same time, the purple-haired young man who was squatting in the corner suddenly raised his head, and his right eye revealed a fierce killing intent.
The rest of the people followed the gaze of the ink snake, and their hearts were cold, like falling into an ice cave.
An old man stood at the door at some point, quietly looking at the people sitting at the long table, with a faint smile on his old face.
"What!" The moment he saw this old man, No. 3 shook violently and lost his voice: "Why are you here!?"
"What a strange question, didn't you bring me here?" said the old man with a smile, "The use of such an ancient thing as an oil lamp during the meeting, the killer of the shadow organization, is really unexpectedly emotional." ”
"You did deliberately let Three go. The ink snake smiled coldly and said, "Wu Chen, who is really worthy of being one of the eight sages." ”
The old man was none other than Wu Chen.
"I can't even hide my killing intent" His eyes fell on No. 3 with a shocked look on his face, Wu Chen shook his head and said: "Sending such an unqualified killer can only be said that the shadow is not as good as before." ”
"It was really my mistake. The ink snake narrowed his eyes and said, "Then I want to ask Elder Wu, in your eyes, what kind of killer can be considered qualified?"
Wu Chen said with a smile: "Naturally, he is a killer who can get close to the enemy silently. ”
"You've got a point. ”
It wasn't the ink snake who said this.
A slender figure suddenly appeared behind Wu Chen.
This figure wore a strange look on its face
Black Mask!
