Chapter Twenty-Five: Assassination
"The target 'Silver Wolf' has been confirmed, is it sniping?" A man in a black combat uniform has a sniper rifle set up on the roof of the building, ready to shoot.
"No, wait, I want to see the accuracy of the information, what kind of ability will the people sent by the CARN company to do the protection be?" The commander of this operation replied.
This time is the night after the end of the military parade in the East Asian People's Republic, and it is also the new technology conference of CARN, and this release of "psychotropic inducing or blocking drugs" will be used to treat mental illness, as well as to eliminate the memory of human psychological panic, but the real effect is for SLM carriers, to be precise, it is a drug specifically used to treat the psychosis of SLM carriers.
The person in charge of the project was the man known as the "Silver Wolf" by the assassination group, and he was also a high-ranking official in the East Asian People's Republic, whose real name was Neil Lowe. He was also one of the parties to the Tianhe-1 incident, that is, one of the enemies that Xiyu Fürth has always considered.
This assassination group was not sent by the Society of Martyrs, but the anti-government elements that have been lurking in the East Asian People's Republic, and they also have a lot of heavyweight weapons and equipment, and if they want to gather a combat force in a short time, then they can gather nearly three rounds of armed personnel.
Although this is not enough to bring the East Asian government to its knees, the attacks have not stopped for more than a decade, and the government has nothing to do with them, and this time the East Asian anti-government group is targeting Neil, a senior official who participated in the press conference.
Neil is also one of the objects that CARN has entrusted to protect in the city, he went to Fipoulos a few months ago, and then returned a few days after the Philippoulos crisis.
The CARN headquarters building has 70 floors and a height of more than 300 meters. It is also very tall in the buildings of Beihua City, although the location is not the center of Beihua City, but because of CARN, the area around this area is also as lively as the city center.
The anti-government sniper followed the instructions and repeatedly checked his surroundings, and when he realized that the man who had been standing near Neil had disappeared, he knew that something was wrong, and subconsciously turned his head to look.
All he was waiting for was a gunshot that shot him was shot in the head or even pierced through his entire head. Ke Cheng looked at the man with a pool of blood on the roof of the high-rise building with an expressionless face, he turned around and picked up the little girl who had been following and left, not wanting to dispose of the body at all, this sniper never dreamed of why he would be discovered, and finally got his identity and the required information to enter the blockade area, and finally got the equipment in his hands, and came to this blind spot of surveillance, just because of the hesitation of the upper echelons and lost the opportunity, and also lost his life.
At first, Kecheng also thought that this blockade area was impregnable, and it was impossible for anyone to have a chance to assassinate him, but he was able to find out only because of Bai's sudden words, she was holding Kecheng's hand tightly: "There is malice shrouded here." Then she suddenly looked at the building, and Cosa quickly understood what was going on and immediately went straight to the building to stop it from happening.
Kecheng took Shiro downstairs, he observed this person who was no different from a 12-year-old girl, and thought: "Could it be that Neil is right, the artificial new human plan is not an ordinary SLM carrier, but something different from the SLM carrier, although there is no reproductive isolation from ordinary humans, but Shiro's ability is too incredible, it turns out that not only can sense the existence and location of SLM carriers, but also perceive the impending crisis, and can accurately judge the location." ”
Now Kecheng didn't dare to use SLM inhibitors on this little girl easily, and he was a little afraid that Bai's ability would be discovered and then used as a weapon. Besides, if Shiro is cloned illegally, or if humanity is allowed to re-execute the "New Humanity Project", then the world will be in chaos.
This can't help but make Kecheng think of whether the "black" replicant of the Martyrs Association will also have that kind of ability to be white, and now Kecheng doesn't know, he doesn't want Black to have this ability, otherwise it will be used by the people of the Martyrs' Association, so it is not as simple as a simple confrontation with non-governmental groups.
Bai is now like a superpower, and his ability to predict danger is even stronger than that of SLM carriers, and his other personality makes Kecheng a little afraid to face it. He takes Shiro back to Neil's area and finds a place to sit with him, and Shiro quickly switches back to his normal personality.
"Uncle Kecheng, why did you leave Sister Xiyu alone in the hotel?"
"Not to leave her there, but to let her go somewhere else, but only not to be with us tonight." Kecheng carefully replied to Shiro's words, he was afraid that talking nonsense would irritate Shiro.
The reason why Kecheng didn't bring Xiyu to this place was that he couldn't expose his hidden identity and the safety of Neil, a high-ranking East Asian official, because Xiyu always thought that Neil was an enemy and would definitely attack him impulsively, and then things would be even more difficult, so Kecheng had to find an excuse to let her go out and walk around.
CARN's technology conference also ended quickly, and Neil came to the place where Kecheng was located after confirming the matter, and they can be said to be old friends, not the kind of ordinary friend relationship, but the tacit relationship between the bodyguard and the employer.
The two of them were drinking in the basement bar on the basement floor of the company, chatting like two old friends, while Shiro was playing with Neil's other bodyguards, just talking to Shiro and telling stories to be exact.
"Cocheng, you want that drug? Isn't your illness already cured? Neil looked at Kecheng incredulously, "Or are you going to use it for that little girl over there?" ”
"Her name is Bai, if you say that she wants to be an SLM carrier, she is in a very bad mental condition, and in some cases she will switch personalities, and Bai is left behind by a good friend of mine." Corsew began to make up stories again, but he didn't make it up on key issues.
Neil quickly agreed to Coop's request, believing in Cos, and after continuing to talk about something else, he left the bar. Kecheng also quickly took Shiro away, he wasn't sure if he was being targeted, but according to what Neil said, Kecheng knew that someone was going to hit him or Shiro's attention.
Now at half past eleven o'clock in the evening, the prosperity here is not comparable to that of Fipolos, but this time is also as brightly lit as Fipolos, and it is also very lively, but it is only in the city center and some neighborhoods, and some streets in other places have even been extinguished.
The two of them walked on the street where no one walked, Kecheng was always vigilant around now, but when he saw Bai's normal situation, he quickly relaxed, after all, Bai Baisheng's ability to detect danger was much stronger than him. If Lian Bai didn't sense anything, then there was no need for him to be so nervous, Kecheng thought.
"Let's go find the person who bothers you, Uncle Cocheng." Shiro suddenly stopped on the sidewalk, turned to Kecheng and proposed.
Kecheng was just trying to understand what she said at first, and his first thought was that she was Shiyu Fürth, because she did cause a lot of trouble to herself, but after thinking about it, he knew that Shiro's personality had switched, and she was actually going to find the killer who was tracking her hidden in the shadows.
He discovered a characteristic of the white personality switch, that is, the pupils will dilate, which is obviously not caused by the external environment of light, but by SLM, at least according to the current view of the city.
The man zipped up his coat and felt for the pistol in his pocket, which he had used to kill the sniper on the roof of the building at the press conference. Now this pistol, Kecheng is going to take it for self-defense, or anti-sneak attack.
Kecheng remembered the distorted education he received in the E department, and he had to be ruthless if he wanted to survive, but Kecheng has always resisted, which is why the brainwashing of the E department has not worked on him, and even the five years of madness were only caused by him personally.
"You shouldn't do this kind of thing, if it's just for me, then I can consider not killing you, but if you want to hurt innocent people and are white, I can't forgive you." Kecheng kicked a man to the ground in the shadows of an alley, "The rest of your companions have been killed by me, you can die in peace." ”
The man shot again, the bullets of the pistol were just used up, and all the assassins Bai said were killed by Kecheng, and she just turned around and didn't look at the scene of gunfire and bloodshed waiting for the next shot, this kind of killing Kecheng has not been done for a long time, but for these rebels who have resisted for more than ten years, they have no help, these terrorist attacks for more than ten years have hurt I don't know how many innocent people, which is enough for them to die, but this time it was planted in Kecheng's hands.
It took more than an hour for Kecheng to kill all the assassins he was tracking, and although he didn't know why the purpose of these assassinations was, he knew that he couldn't let them go, and the easiest way was to kill them after obtaining all the information about them.
He took Shiro back to the hotel where Xiyu was before, and just after settling down, he just wanted to go downstairs when he bumped into Xiyu Fürth, who was carrying something upstairs, and the two met but didn't say anything, just looked at each other for a second and left.
Su Qinyao waited until Kecheng came back before falling asleep, she still cared about her son, and Kecheng always said that she didn't want her to worry, but she often made her unhappy. Kecheng is also very self-reproachful, and he doesn't want others to be innocently hurt for him, whether it is physical or mental, this is something he doesn't want to see.
Just like the situation in the past, Su Qinyao asked him countless times when he returned late: "Why did you come back at this time, I don't know if anyone is worried about you, even if everyone is far away from you, but I won't." And Kecheng was usually silent and didn't answer, but this time he chose to talk to his mother.
"I'm sorry, I'll just pay attention, I'll let you know before I get back." Cocheng reluctantly replied in a soft voice. Su Qinyao didn't ask anything more, she just watched Kecheng slowly walk into the bedroom, and then went to pour two glasses of warm water alone, according to the past, Kecheng would come out and drink a cup of hot water before going to rest.
As Su Qinyao expected, Kecheng dragged his heavy body to the sofa and sat there, picked up the quilt with water on the guest table and drank it, and then leaned against the wall, he didn't talk to his mother, just sat there and was silent for a while before going back.
After the events of this night, Kecheng understood that there would be all kinds of assassinations waiting for him in the future, and he also understood that the retribution for his killing would definitely come, and his hands full of blood, whether it was the blood of sinners or ordinary people, he was destined to be unable to clear his evil thoughts, and from the first time he shot and killed, he was doomed to be unable to turn back.
It is often said that if you, as a soldier, shoot a murderous bullet on the battlefield or in another place, sooner or later you will have to face it.
In fact, he sometimes looked forward to the day when he would judge himself. He was soon separated from Shiyu Fürth for the next month, and she needed to return to Fipulos, and according to the agreement, Cocheng would return the favor to her when she returned to Fipulos. Three months later, Kojo and Shiro travel between the East Asian People's Republic and the United Nations in the Pacific, searching for all the information about the "New Humanity Project" and helping Shiro recover his pre-frozen memories.
In the past three months, he had no contact with E Branch and other institutions, until one day Kecheng suddenly received an encrypted message, which finally shattered his leisurely life.
