Chapter 36: The Assassins
"Knock knock...."A series of hurried footsteps, I could hear that it was someone coming, and such a fast footstep, obviously there was a hurry, which couldn't help but make Vito very surprised, who would be in the corridor of the council hall at this time so fast, he didn't stop unconsciously, standing on the right and looking ahead, the arc corridor around the council hall echoed in front of him, but he couldn't see the figure for a while, but the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and then he looked at it, a figure in a black dress walked towards him, And they walked briskly along the inner edge of the veranda, which meant that if Vito or the other party didn't avoid it, the two would collide on top of each other.
Judging from his appearance, he should be a member of the parliament or a guest invited by the organizers to attend the banquet, but what is the urgency that makes this person who looks like he has a certain status in the corridor of the parliament building hurrying and panicking, this is obviously not a harmonious picture, the hurried figure of the person who came is strange, as for where it is strange, but it is impossible to say.
The speed of the person walking did not decrease at all, from Vito saw him, the figure of the other party was about twenty meters away from him, and after a pause, this person was about to be in front of Vito, the difference was less than five meters, and at such a distance, Vito finally saw the discordant factor, this person's left hand was behind him, only one hand shook his arm, to control the balance of the body, and then the person's eyes stared at his eyes, just to judge which part of his body Vito was looking at, Did you notice the part you wanted to hide, just when the two figures intersected, the other party suddenly moved his hand behind his back to the front of him quickly, he believed that at such an angle and such a fast speed, this person would not see what he was holding in his hand.
But he underestimated this confused person, he experienced two brain stem activations, and the brain development range exceeded 40% of the brain stem, while the general brain utilization rate of ordinary people was less than 10%, and after so many years of research and development, the utilization rate of the human brain was only about 18%. Vito himself is a synthetic biological person, and his brainstem development is completely based on external stimuli, and the program is deviated in the process of activation, inadvertently activating another part of the brainstem, so from a biological point of view, Vito is now a superbody, and his intelligence, behavioral ability, language ability and other human body functions controlled by the brain are several times or even dozens of times higher than that of ordinary humans, but he himself has no way to compare, and he doesn't know.
These functions of course include the six senses, and in this blink of an eye, Vito saw clearly the movements in the hands of the person who came in the light and the angle was tricky, and he could distinguish what the other party was holding in his hand, he was surprised, and quickly took his eyes off the person, which was the conditioned reflex of the body, and it was a subconscious protective measure.
The deliberate behavior of the two people walking in the opposite direction made them keep their movements, and quickly passed by, Vito sped up his feet, wanted to stay away from this suspicious person, keep a safe distance, such an action instead exposed his scheming, the person in the black dress suddenly subconsciously turned back, he only now noticed that Vito was wearing a police uniform, and it was not the kind of police uniform worn by ordinary police officers, which made his judgment deviate, and it also determined the decision he made, he raised his hand sideways is a shot.
The two had already passed by, but the corner of Vito's eyes kept looking at the side and back, and his feet accelerated his speed, just to follow this arc-shaped inner wall, turn the sight of the suspicious person behind him, and hide outside his shooting range, as soon as he saw the person behind him turn around, Vito suddenly felt bad, and his sharp eyes saw the other party's action of raising his arm, he immediately sensed a crisis, and his body ran a few steps towards the front of the inner wall, and a beam of photons passed through his left face, and then disappeared into the air.
This is the first time Vito has been shot after walking out of the brood, although there have been times when people have pointed a gun at the head before, but this is the first time that he is so close to death, his soul is scattered, his feet are weak, people are staggering, stumbling forward, and looking back at the movement behind him, whether people are chasing him.
He clearly saw that the man looked this way intently, raised his foot and was about to chase after him, but suddenly stopped, because there was a mixed sound of footsteps from the other end of the corridor, obviously a group of people were running towards this side, the man immediately stopped, and looked at Vito viciously, this eye seemed to be full of threats, full of warnings, more like he wanted to carve Vito's figure into his mind, firmly remember his appearance.
By the time Vito stood up against the inner wall of the porch, there was no one there, and behind him a group of guards from the state assembly came running briskly, and someone saw Vito standing against the wall, his face was as earthy as the color.
"What's wrong with you? Did someone pass by just now? The guards shouted and asked.
"He had a gun, and he raised his left hand and shot at me, wearing a black dress and a light blonde bow tie." Vito was frightened, but his mind was clear, and he succinctly described the characteristics of the gunmen's clothing, giving clues to the guards.
The guards chased after him quickly, and something happened behind him, and Vito didn't know what was going on, he had to hurry back to his team, anyway, it should be safer over there.
But when Vito almost ran back to the No. 3 lounge, everything in front of him made him even more uneasy, the entire aisle was full of guards, all loaded guns and ammunition, Lennon stood at the door of the No. 3 lounge, his brows furrowed, vigilant, his eyes full of murder,
Vito wanted to come over, but a guard stopped him and asked him about his identity, and someone scanned the code plate on his chest with a code scanner, and after verifying his identity, it was not finished, and he checked whether he was carrying a weapon, and only after confirming it, did he let Vito come over.
"What's wrong?" Vito asked Lennon urgently.
"He-Man is dead, and when I went to see him in front of the bureau, I just entered the house and saw that he had been shot and killed at close range, and the gunman ran away, and the guards chased after him, and I don't know if he caught him?"
"I saw him, he fired one shot at me, and when I was about to fire a second shot, the guards arrived, and he ran away." Vito's voice was very excited, and the door was a little high, and Du Pong rushed out of the house with one arrow: "Did you really see him?" Where is it? ”
"In the veranda of the hall, he wore a black gown and a light golden bow tie, and he looked very dignified." Vito has now come to his senses, so the return is very fluid.
Du Pong excitedly clapped his fist and said, "Great, it's great to have you as an eyewitness." ”
