497 Blockade in small town
Lei Rui's judgment is not untargeted, but has a good reason.
Shida's thirst for Logan's mutation ability, no matter what concerns he had about Rogen and the paradise island behind Logan, at the moment of his death, it would be overshadowed by his strong desire to live.
And those who have a great interest in the business consortium founded by Shida will also take action at this critical moment.
Logan immediately understood Lei Rui's words, and smiled happily. Anyway, for him, this tortured day is finally coming to an end.
After getting into the car, Logan and Lei Rui consciously kept silent. When they were on the way, they met Xue Xu, who rushed over, and under the leadership of Xue Xu, they rushed all the way to the castle.
In the small town in front of the mountain, which must be passed to reach the castle in the mountains, things are clearly not right. This town used to be a normal looking town, and there were many local residents in the town, but tonight, it was pitch black and there was no light.
The creaking sound of the sudden brakes of the car in front of Xuexu was sharp and piercing, and there were bursts of green smoke rising from the rear of the car because of the braking too quickly. Lei Rui also stepped on the brakes, and the anti-lock braking system worked, causing the whole car to move forward, as if it was shaking.
Through the lamppost at the front of the car, it is easy to see that the road leading to the castle has been blocked by concrete piers!
"What's going on?" Lei Rui got out of the car and shouted at Xue Xu, who got out of the car in front of him.
At this time, Logan wants to respect his identity, so if there is anything, it is Lei Rui's assistant who will come forward.
Xue Xu's face turned pale, and he replied confidently: "The road is blocked!" Don't worry, I've informed the people in the castle. ”
Xue Xu's outfit tonight was obviously unusual, every time I saw her before, she was wearing a short skirt, but this time, she was wearing a navy blue tight-fitting combat suit, and two katana with long hilts on her back.
Her identity was originally the adopted daughter and personal bodyguard of Shida.
While talking to Lei Rui, Xue Xu walked over, opened the trunk of the car, and asked Lei Rui, "What weapon do you need?" ”
Lei Rui walked over unceremoniously and took a look, good guy, the trunk was full of weapons, mostly katanas, and a few pistols. Lei Rui didn't say a word, picked up two pistols, several magazines, and a katana, which could be said to be armed to the teeth.
But this move made Xue Xu look down on him a little, a samurai who uses a katana can't use a firearm! That's the pride and principle of being a samurai!
But she just muttered in her heart, and didn't stop it. In fact, she prepared a pistol in the trunk of the car, which was for Lei Rui. Because she knew very well that Logan didn't need these weapons, not even katanas!
The town was still dark and quiet, no one came out to give an explanation for the road closure, and Xue Xu just stood by the car, looking very confident. After a short time, a lamppost appeared from the direction of the castle, which was a car driving from the castle, and there were quite a few of them.
"Don't worry! It's our reinforcements that have arrived. Xue Xu turned around and comforted Lei Rui.
She was worried that Lei Rui was nervous, but in fact, Lei Rui was not nervous at all, and she didn't agree with what she said at all. These people who came may not be Xuexu's so-called reinforcements, but they are just the ones who closed the road!
Logan was still sitting firmly in the car, Lei Rui and Xue Xu chatted with each other, and the convoy out of the castle soon stopped on the other side of the road, and a group of people who got out of the car were all dressed in samurai uniforms and covered their faces with black cloths, revealing only two eyes and the handle of the katana on their backs.
The leader is Shishida's grandson, Shishida Xinxuan, his face was solemn, his eyes were a little ruthless, he came straight to Xuexu, and asked sharply, "What's the matter?" ”
Xue Xu pointed to the cement pier that blocked the road and said, "Someone deliberately blocked the road like this......"
"That's for the safety of the castle!" Shida Shingen impatiently interrupted Xue Xu's words, "It's just to prevent outsiders from entering the castle!" I'm asking you what's going on? Why bring outsiders into the castle?! ”
Xue Xu was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth all of a sudden, and suddenly shouted as if she understood: "Xinxuan! What do you want?! This is the order of your grandfather, Mr. Shida, who wants to see this Mr. Logan! ”
"Xue Xu! You're so bold! Shida Shinxuan snorted, "Grandfather is dying, what we need to do is to let him leave peacefully, instead of bringing outsiders into the castle!" Someone! Arrest them! ”
Lei Rui sighed secretly in his heart, this Shishida Xinxuan obviously didn't know Logan's identity at all, and the person who instructed him to do this either didn't know Logan's identity at all, or he was ready to borrow Rogan's hand to kill this grandson of Shida!
At this moment, the driver of the previous car suddenly got down, and when she got out of the car, even though she was wearing a peaked cap, Lei Rui's eyes immediately shrank and recognized her.
The driver who drove for Xue Xu turned out to be Mariko, the great-granddaughter of Shishida! And at this moment, she was holding a small silver pistol, against her temple, and shouted at Shida Shingen: "This Mr. Logan is the honored guest that my great-grandfather wants to see on his deathbed!" You can't just follow your grandfather's orders and stop your great-grandfather from seeing who he wants to see! ”
"Mariko!" Zhizhi Tian Xinxuan was furious, the green tendons on his neck rose up, and he roared angrily, "What are you doing here!" Put the gun down! ”
"Nope! If you don't let us go, I'll die in front of you!" Mariko shouted resolutely.
Shida Shingen wanted to go crazy for a while, but he obviously didn't know what to do! At this moment, Lei Rui's eyes shrank again, looking at the town in the dark, and then with a bang, a feathered arrow slid out of the darkness and passed through Mariko's arm with great precision.
Between Lei Rui and Mariko, there are more than ten steps apart, and there are people in the middle, such as Shida Shingen and Xue Xu, even if they have the heart, they can't rescue Mariko at this time.
But in an instant, when Shida Shingen and Xue Xu were still stunned, he had already lifted the katana in his hand, but with a scabbard.
In the darkness, the buzzing sound sounded like a life-threatening note, sounding intensively, and the sound of the sigh flew over with a breathtaking magic.
"Mariko!" Yukio pulled out the katana on his back and rushed towards Mariko, who fell to the ground with an arrow in a frenzy!
