The sky is overcast, there is a faint thunder, and there are three days left until Chinese New Year's Eve. The weather suddenly turned cloudy at this time, and the light rain began to fall non-stop from the night, but this still could not stop the festive atmosphere. The sudden cooling caused thunderstorms even in the cold winter, and the city, which has countless stories, seems to be in a state of flux......

"Chen Mo!"

A coquettish cry pulled me back to reality. I turned my head and saw Chen Ke with his hands on his hips, looking at me with a small face full of unhappiness, and I almost pouted.

"What's wrong, Coco?"

"Okay, we will go to Beijing to pick up my sister yesterday, your words don't count!"

"It's not ...... Something happened suddenly? ”

"Something? Is it for your first love, or for that vixen? ”

I silently lowered my head and sighed, I don't know what prompted me to stay in Gusu for two more days. Even in the past two days, I have not stepped out of the hotel.

"My sister said that you are sick when you have nothing to do, which is really true!"

I looked at her in amazement, "What's sick?" ”

Just then my phone rang, and it was a call from the front desk saying that someone had sent me a courier.

Before going to the restaurant, I picked up the courier at the front desk, and then I pondered with Chen Ke in the restaurant. I looked at the periphery of the box, and there was no sending address, only a label full of English, as if it was sent from abroad. There are only four big Chinese words on the box that say 'Happy Birthday'.

"Who gave you your birthday present?"

I shook my head and said I didn't know, "But it's my birthday in more than ten days." Can you understand what these small English words mean? ”

Coco looked at it for a long time, frowned and said, "This is not logistics information, it seems to be a ...... Prayers? LineInTheDark，,EveryIsPermitted.”

I was surprised and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Chen Ke's face was solemn, and his brows became tighter and tighter, "Walking in the night, serving the light, everything is empty, and everything is allowed......"

As soon as the words fell, Chen Ke's pupils shrank sharply, and he threw up a kick to kick the box away, and at the same time pulled my collar and threw himself directly to the ground, covering my back with his body......

Rumble! A monstrous bang shook my whole head, and the whole restaurant was immediately filled with gunsmoke, I coughed and turned over, and Chen Ke, who was lying on my back, had lost consciousness, and I saw that her back was bloody and blurred......

……

In the hospital, Chen Kezheng was lying on the bed and asked the nurse to change the medicine on her back, fortunately, the wound was not deep and did not hurt the vital point, but I am afraid that she will have to say goodbye to the backless outfit in the summer.

Cooperate with the patrol to make a record, but fortunately, it was not early at that time, there was no one else in the whole restaurant, and the bomb was not very powerful. My external identity is that of the chairman of a multinational trading group, so it is preliminarily determined that it is a vendetta against me by foreign forces, and it is difficult for the local police to do anything like this.

Chen Ke told me that that sentence was the dogma of the Assassin League, which meant that the people who wanted to kill me were from the West.

This made me a little surprised, "Could it be that someone else deliberately wrote it this way to confuse the public?" ”

Chen Ke thought for a moment, "I can't rule out this possibility, but the Assassin Alliance is originally a very loose organization, and it is more of an academy than an organization, and there is nothing to blame." ”

I muttered, "Let's go back to Wanhua City early, we've been here for a long time." ”

Tan Dongbao came to the hospital to meet me after getting the news, "Gusu is the territory of the Su family, and if you want to investigate, you need the support of the Su family." ”

I shook my head, "Forget it, I don't believe in Su Jinhui, an old fox, and I can't rule out his suspicion." Whether it is the Su family, Sun Rucai, or someone else, since they didn't succeed the first time, they will definitely continue, and I will solve my affairs by myself. ”

"Are you going back?"

I nodded, "You help me take care of the Bai family, especially that ......"

Tan Dongbao readily agreed, "I will explain to the person in charge here, I will also go to Wanhua City after deploying the layout here, and I will see you again when the time comes." ”

"When I owe you a personal favor."

Saying goodbye to Tan Dongbao, Chen Ke almost finished treating his wounds, and we went to meet Xiao Lizi and them, and among their people were experts in explosives, named Vader. After my accident, Vader came over and collected the remains of the explosives.

Vader was a tall, thin man in his thirties with curly blonde hair and a lot of personality.

"Did you find anything?" I asked him.

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Boss, to be honest, if you get blown up by this thing, it's really too weak." I'm willing to bet my twenty-year blasting career that the one who does this is definitely the layman's layman. Usually such people are apprentices in the League of Assassins. ”

Xiao Lizi added, "The success rate of the first assassination is the highest, because that is when the target is the most lax, so the killer will use what he is best at." I suspect that those people are not from the Assassin League at all, and the standard is too poor. ”

"How far can you go if you put a bomb in a box as big as this?" I casually asked Vader.

He laughed twice, "There's no pressure to blow up two or three walls." Boss, if you can get me some CL20, I'll be able to blow up the whole floor. ”

I bowed my head and groaned, and a plan to lure the snake out of the hole slowly emerged in my mind.

……

In the evening, I sat in a bar on some unfinished street, where I waited for my prey to come to my door in the afternoon. There are very few people in this bar, and even the boss was taken away by me at this time, leaving me and Chen Ke.

"Are you sure they're coming?" Chen Ke asked me.

"I'll go back to Wanhua City tomorrow, and tonight is their last chance."

As I expected, the door of the bar was pushed open at almost eight o'clock, and a little girl who was a few years younger than Chen Kedu walked in. She was wearing a black gothic skirt, and her long silver-white hair was not dyed, and she was a real little girl from the Shabai Kingdom.

The little Lolita-style girl saluted me with her skirt and said, "Mr. Chen, someone hired me to kill you." ”

I asked, "You're from the Alliance?" ”

"I yearn for it, but people like us can't get in." As she spoke, she took off a thick, long, cylindrical thing on her back, wrapped in a cloth bag.

Actually, when she came in, I was quite surprised what the weapon was that didn't match her smaller body.

But when she took the bag off...... I can't laugh, that Gatling gun!

Without saying a word, Chen Ke turned over and jumped into the bar, then grabbed me by the collar and pulled me in.

As soon as we lay down close to the ground, the sound of machine gun fire rang out outside! It was the sound of metal bursting angrily, and the entire bar was instantly filled with smoke and sparks. The sound of bullet casings hitting the ground, the sound of wine bottles bursting, and the sound of bullets passing through the bar and passing me all together in a symphony called death.

When you are really close to death, you can't even care about fear, and there is only excitement in my body at this time! I yelled at Little Plum and them into the headphones, "! Don't worry about what you plan or not, that killer is a madman! Hurry up and get rid of her for me! ”

Originally, I wanted to confirm that the comer was a killer, and then let Xiao Lizi, who was ambushed around, cooperate with Chen Ke to capture him alive and torture the employer behind it. And now in such a crazy situation, it is obvious that there are not so many cares!

As soon as I finished speaking, the machine gun stopped firing, and the whole space fell silent. I was a little curious about what the other party was going to do next. I saw a little firelight lit up, followed by a 'bang'. I looked up at the source of the sound, and there was already an RPG warhead on the wine rack above my head......

This is no longer an assassination!
