Chapter 10: The Assassin in the Shadows (No. 10) 4
Quickly walked to the fire hydrant, opened the cabinet door to check the equipment inside, it seems that no one has touched the things in this cabinet, or it should be said that no one has moved the door, after seeing it, Xia Lu was stunned for a moment, forgetting his fear of this environment, from the outside, the fire hydrant that is not too big is almost one meter five deep, and the stuffed inside is even more dumbfounded, the orange teak butt clearly marks the name of this gun, Dragonov semi-automatic sniper rifle, The standard sniper rifle made in the former Soviet Union, with an effective range of 600 meters, is a good semi-automatic sniper rifle, and the Izmash company has been designing quite a lot of variants for it, but Xia Lu pulled out this gun and looked at it, this gun is indeed the most primitive model, and the PSO-1 type scope on it is even a little paintless, Xia Lu is very suspicious of how this gun came here, after all, Japan did not have this building when the Admiralty was just established. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info placed this box of ammunition next to it, the standard 1,000 rounds ammunition supply box, but the box is not a neatly arranged round of bullets, but more than a dozen spare magazines that have been pressed into the bullets, Xia Lu took out one and looked at it, the bullet pressed inside is a 7N14 lead core sniper bullet, the warhead is 0.07 grams lighter than the previous 7N1 sniper bullet, this weight reduction adds a lot of accuracy attributes to this bullet, so that it can hit the target more accurately.
This is completely murderous equipment. Xia Lu thought to herself.
However, Xia Lu didn't have time to say more about this legendary former Soviet sniper rifle, and withdrew the magazine on the gun to check the loading situation inside, and after confirming that the reload was not abnormal, Xia Lu buckled the magazine back to the gun, pulled the bolt, clicked the bullet into loading, and then took two more magazines and stuffed them into the pocket of his jacket.
Holding an advanced semi-automatic sniper rifle weighing 4.3 kilograms in his hand, Xia Lu had a little bottom in his heart, and looked through the PSO-1 scope, and the tiles laid on the stairs were immediately much clearer, which was a bit like taking a magnifying glass to look at the pins on the fabric, Xia Lu heard Ye Kexin say that Ye Zifeng used to like this very much, did he take out the magnifying glass in the drawer and crawl on the bed to look at the cotton threads on the sheets, once he watched a movie with Ye Zifeng on the computer in the boys' dormitory of Newcastle College, Xia Lu still vaguely remembers that movie is called"Wanted", Ye Zifeng and Xia Lu were very happy to see it at that time, there was such a thing as the fate loom, and the name of the person was judged from the wrong line of the loom, and then assassinated. After reading it, Ye Zifeng didn't look for someone's name on his bed sheet with the magnifying glass, but immediately took the pistol to the shooting range to practice the trick of "turning bullets", but he didn't practice it after practice, so Ye Zifeng gave up.
It's a bit off-topic, but this also shows how much Xia Lu cares about Ye Zifeng now, it seems that only information about Ye Zifeng can tell you for an hour like a storytelling, but now is not the time to recall these sweet college pasts, the surrounding gloomy but still constantly invade Xia Lu, a slightly trembling finger did not dare to pull on the trigger, Xia Lu was afraid that he would accidentally pull the trigger rifle and go off. In this way, Xia Lu cautiously walked upstairs, cautiously step by step, only as soon as there was a stir, he immediately leaned his back against the wall, and his whole body was tense.
Speaking of which, the Tokyo headquarters building is not too high, only twelve floors, which can not be said to be raised in the city of Tokyo where there are many high-rise buildings, as long as the area of this building is too large, it occupies an entire block of area, which also makes Xia Lu's search work a lot more difficult, it does not take long to go upstairs, it takes two minutes on average to go up to one floor, and it takes twenty minutes to go up to twelve floors, mainly because he is used to coming out of the elevator directly to the medical room where Ye Zifeng is, and suddenly changing an exit, Xia Lu is a little uncomfortable, and the most effective way to solve this problem is to find the elevator and start from the elevator. Fortunately, the exit of the safe passage on the twelfth floor is not far from the elevator, which can be said to be directly facing the elevator door, and on both sides is a special load-bearing wall with a thickness of about five centimeters of titanium steel plate in the middle, which can be reached as long as it passes through the corridor with a length of about five meters.
The twelfth floor of the Tokyo headquarters building is a special floor for medical trials, there are five medical rooms on this floor, three laboratories and a large area of medical supplies storage warehouse and several office lounges, one of which has been converted into a simple room for Xia Lu to stay, generally speaking, the twelfth floor will not be up except for the Tokyo branch researchers in and out of the accident, but the decoration here is like a five-star hotel, and the ground is covered with a thick layer of burgundy velvet carpet, Walking on it is like walking on the clouds, and there is a feeling of fluttering.
Forcefully pushing open the safety door of the twelfth floor of the security passage, Xia Lu flashed into the twelfth floor. Just entered the twelfth floor, Xia Lu turned around gorgeously, squatted down against the corridor, and put on a standard kneeling position, even if Xia Lu didn't often train for handles, but some basic shooting training was still received.
After determining the surrounding situation, it was the same as the first floor, quiet and indescribably weird.
- No one, no one on this side, safe.
Xia Lu thought silently in her heart, after confirming the safety of the surroundings, Xia Lu relaxed, and the original stable sniper rifle couldn't help but relax slightly at this time, and the muzzle of the gun was downward, but when Xia Lu wanted to stand up, the indicator light on the elevator in front of her suddenly lit up, and the dark light seemed to be a ghost fire, and the frightened Xia Lu immediately bounced up from the ground, almost didn't scream, and ran towards the corner of the wall on the side, hiding behind the whole body tightly, not daring to probe. Between the time when it was not easy to make the elevator suddenly operated at this time can only mean one thing, someone came up.
- Is there a ghost······
This is the first thing Xia Lu thought of when she saw the running elevator, it seems that when she is afraid, her spirit will indeed be a little abnormal, especially for girls like Xia Lu who are particularly sensitive to supernatural things such as ghosts or ghosts.
The elevator will make a tinkling sound every time it goes up, it was originally a very humanized design, but at this time, it will invisibly bring a sense of fear to Xia Lu, and every ding, it means that the "ghost" in the elevator is closer to himself. Xia Lu became more and more nervous, and subconsciously clenched the Dragonov semi-automatic sniper rifle in his hand. It seems that this elevator starts from the first floor, and from the moment she saw it, Xia Lu silently counted the number of times in her heart, counting and counting to eleven, there is still one floor, and one more elevator will reach the top floor.
Xia Lu kept praying in her heart that the last sound would not sound, but the last ding sound made Xia Lu's illusion burst like a bubble without a trace, and the elevator door had to stop for two seconds before it opened, waiting for the people inside to come out and suddenly attack, it was better to put up a posture and wait for the people inside to come out. Taking two deep breaths to calm down a little too fast heartbeat, Xia Lu realized that she was already in a cold sweat at this time, but she didn't gradually care about these trivial matters, no matter what factors in sniping at such a close range, it has little impact on the result of the sniper, the muzzle velocity of the warhead is 828 meters per second, like this corridor with a straight distance of less than seven meters, it is entirely possible for the bullet to hit the target in one hundred and thirty-eighth seconds, The bullet, which can penetrate a ten-millimeter-thick Grade-2P steel plate, kills at gunpoint no matter what's in the elevator.
Xia Lu concentrated, the center of gravity was concentrated on the upper legs, the waist was violently forced, and the body was about to flash out from the front and back to make a half-squat posture and aim the muzzle of the gun at the elevator, ready to kill the "ghost" in the elevator with this legendary sniper rifle in his hand, but Xia Lu's series of actions were only halfway through, a big hand quietly circled Xia Lu's mouth from behind Xia Lu, and pulled it back, Xia Lu's eyes immediately widened, and she wanted to scream, but her mouth was covered tightly by the hand handed out behind her, and she couldn't make a sound. The Dragunov sniper rifle also came out of Xia Lu's surprise and fell the ground on the side, but because of the thick carpet on the ground, the gun did not make a loud noise when it fell to the ground, but the loose parts inside collided with each other and made a soft clicking sound, which was not very clear.
Xia Lu kept kicking her legs and struggled out of this hand first, but this hand was too powerful, no matter how Xia Lu struggled, there was no slackness.
"Don't make a fuss! It's me! A voice that had been pressed to an extremely low point sounded from behind Xia Lu, and the vibration of the vocal cords was barely audible, just with the gasping airflow. After hearing this voice, Xia Lu was stunned for a moment, and her feet, which were originally struggling to keep kicking the ground, also stopped, opened her closed eyes, and looked at who was the person who knocked herself down.
A round face full of seriousness appeared in front of Xia Lu, and it was easy to identify who the person with such a face was. The owner of the face let go of the hand covering Xia Lu's mouth, and Xia Lu gasped deeply.
Yamamoto ······ Sir, how do you ·······" Xia Lu looked at Keiichi Yamamoto suspiciously, but she still didn't forget to hang the sniper rifle lying on the ground on the side, aiming the muzzle at the corner.
"No need to point out, there's no one in the elevator." Keiichi Yamamoto lowered the muzzle of the sniper rifle in Xia Lu's hand, "This is not the place to speak. ”
Keiichi Yamamoto raised his head and looked around cautiously, and the light in his eyes was as sharp as a cunning rabbit peeping at the enemy. After confirming that there was nothing abnormal around him, Keiichi Yamamoto breathed a sigh of relief.
"Come with me, it's not peaceful here." As he spoke, Keiichi Yamamoto pulled up Xia Lu, who was still lying on the ground.
"But, but Zifeng ······ him" Xia Lu looked at the direction where Ye Zifeng's medical room was located with some hesitation, her brows furrowed slightly, and she was unwilling to move.
"Don't worry, Sir Ye Zifeng, you don't have to worry, now the door has been set to the highest level of combination lock, it can't be opened without the authority of the three S-level, and the tempered door material is 88mm anti-tank howitzer can't be opened by any level of shells below the 88mm anti-tank howitzer, and the glass window outside has also been treated with special technology, and the strength is equivalent to the floor-to-ceiling observation window in the bridge of a battleship, but I haven't really seen the appearance of the floor-to-ceiling observation window, I just heard about it, But the big names in the fleet like you, sir, should know. Keiichi Yamamoto ignored Natsuro's hesitation, and just walked forward on his own, with a PKK-1990 "Magnon" pistol hanging from the holster on his waist and four spare magazines, at least on the surface, there was no armament.
While listening to Keiichi Yamamoto's explanation, Xia Lu relieved her mind and hurriedly followed Keiichi Yamamoto's pace and walked towards the other side. In this direction, Ye Zifeng's medical room was getting farther and farther away, although Xia Lu still had a little worry in her heart, but it was not as strong as before.
Following Yamamoto Keiichi turned left and right, Xia Lu didn't get lost before he passed, at this time Xia Lu was amazed in his heart that the twelfth floor was so big, and on both sides of the corridor were some unknown storage rooms marked with "XXX Warehouse Warehouse" or "XXX Warehouse Warehouse", and there were even a few doors with warning signs with biochemical warnings, nuclear radiation warnings, poison gas warnings, explosives warnings, which made Xia Lu full of goosebumps, but soon, Yamamoto Keiichi stopped in front of a double-door room and began to enter the password on the password disk on the side. Taking advantage of this, Xia Lu looked at the sign on the door, "Twelfth Stage".
Twelve-floor meeting room? What did you bring me here for? A slight alertness rose in Xia Lu's heart, and she subconsciously took a step back. Keiichi Yamamoto, who had his back to Xia Lu, didn't notice Xia Lu's small action, and still entered the password on the password disk, it seems that this password is very long, and Keiichi Yamamoto entered it for nearly five or six seconds without finishing it. Xia Lu began to try to see this Keiichi Yamamoto in front of him in her heart to see what kind of intentions he had.
"There's a conference room on the twelfth floor, I don't even know." Xia Lu pretended not to notice anything and scratched the back of her head, "What are you bringing me here for?" ”
"Someone wants to see you." Keiichi Yamamoto still didn't look back, Xia Lu didn't know the expression on his face, but the vigilance in Xia Lu's heart became deeper and deeper, and he would think of the serious expression on Keiichi Yamamoto's smiling round face that would never appear before, Xia Lu took a step back again, and at the same time took off the Dragonov who was rushing on his shoulder, and opened the insurance that was closed before.
"Who is it that wants to see me?" Xia Lu was cautious and cautious, and quietly retreated back again and again, widening the distance between herself and Keiichi Yamamoto.
As if he heard something, and as if he felt something, Keiichi Yamamoto stopped entering the password, and after stopping entering it for two seconds, all the passwords he entered before would be reset, which may be the reason why Keiichi Yamamoto didn't finish entering the password for so long. Turning around slowly, Keiichi Yamamoto's face no longer had the expression that everyone would smile at in the past, this smile did not disappear even when he was reprimanded by Officer Lu Zi, but now there is no trace of it. Xia Lu finally determined that there was a problem with this Keiichi Yamamoto in front of him, and there was definitely a problem.
"Who are you? You're not Mr. Yamamoto. Natsuro picked up her sniper rifle and aimed it at Keiichi Yamamoto's eyebrows, and put her finger on the trigger.
"My instincts are very sharp, so I don't like to be enemies of women." Keiichi Yamamoto's voice changed completely, and his slightly hoarse voice reminded Xia Lu all the time that the person in front of him was not Keiichi Yamamoto.
"Damn it!" Xia Lu cursed quietly, then quickly turned the head of the gun, and when the person in front of him had not yet reacted, he aimed the muzzle of the gun at the holster he pinned to his waist, and quickly pulled the trigger. The extremely fast initial velocity made the "Yamamoto Keiichi" in front of him absolutely no time to dodge, and the bullet penetrated the PKK-1990 "McGnon" pistol hanging on the waist of "Keiichi Yamamoto" in less than a fraction of a second, with a loud bang, the lead core bullet of the 7N14 sniper bullet passed through the plastic holster of the pistol and left a trace on the wall behind "Keiichi Yamamoto", and the wall skin around the trace produced radioactive cracks, and some of the fragments of the wall skin that really could not be hung on the wall fell off, In addition, there were a lot of cement debris scattered everywhere.
However, even if a very lethal sniper bullet grazed and destroyed the self-defense weapon on his body from less than a centimeter away from his body, the expression of "Yamamoto Keiichi" still did not change in any way, it was still so cold, still so deep, Xia Lu was a little flustered, obviously he had unloaded the opponent's armament, but the other party seemed to be full of confidence, which made Xia Lu have a great sense of crisis, and his feet began to fall backwards again, and at the same time pulled the bolt and withdrew a five-centimeter-long bullet case. The cartridge case spun and flew out of the chamber and landed on the burgundy carpet, while the next bullet was pushed into the chamber with a click, the firing pin was pulled apart, and the bullet was fired as soon as Xia Lu pulled the trigger.
"It's very good, it's quite accurate." "Keiichi Yamamoto" not only did not panic, but looked at Xia Lu and clapped his hands, "But I don't have time for you to spend here, tell me your Admiralty account number and password, I can consider leaving you a whole corpse." ”
"Do you think it's possible?" Xia Lu tried to calm down, and she felt an invisible pressure coming towards her like a tide, what kind of feeling is this, this is the disparity caused by the difference in strength, even if the other party does not have any weapons and equipment, but Xia Lu still keeps retreating, although each step is not big, but this retreat has not stopped.
"Don't be afraid, I'm just here for one thing, I originally set up some interesting traps for you, but it doesn't seem to be needed." "Keiichi Yamamoto" also began to approach Xia **, always raising his hand to tear off the mask on his face, to Xia Lu's surprise, under the mask was not a fat face but a thin and slightly pale face, and a short silver and black hair rested on this person's head and was slightly long.
"It's useless, I advise you to put down the gun in your hand, you can't hit me." The person on the other side whispered.
"How do you know if you don't try!" Xia Lu shouted, aimed Dragonov at the man's eyebrows, and pulled the trigger, the distance between the two was less than half a meter, at such a distance, it only took a thousandth of a second to penetrate his brain, and then his head would be shattered like the previous pistol, but unexpectedly, a light and shadow flashed in front of him, and then there was no follow-up, and the lead core bullet that shot out disappeared, and Xia Lu only saw a trace of sparks explode in front of his eyes.
"What's going on!" Xia Lu was amazed, but the training she received made Xia Lu subconsciously want to pull the bolt again, but someone was one step faster than him, a bang in the distance of the corridor accompanied by the sound of glass breaking, a white light pierced straight over, this speed is absolutely invisible to the naked eye, Xia Lu has no time to react at all, when he just saw the white light flashing, there was a strong sense of vibration in his hand, as if every heavy iron anchor hit him head-on, the thrust from the gun made Xia Lu turn around, After the shock, the strong paralyzing feeling also made Xia Lu unable to hold the gun in his hand, Gragonov got out of his hand and fell to the ground again, while Xia Lu pulled Dragunov to the ground, and was hit hard in the chest, pinned in the trachea in one breath, making Xia Lu cough violently.
"Looks like it's game over, little girl." He reached into the pocket of his upper suit, and pulled out a pitch-black unknown object from it, but after pressing a button on it, there was a crisp snap, a silver light flashed, and the blade popped out, and the EmersonCommanderBTS flashed with a cold light, and the blade was pointed at Xia Lu.
"Unfortunately, it looks like you're going to say goodbye to the world." He turned Xia Lu's collar, turned Xia Lu over hard, and kept panting tightly against his chest, it seems that Xia Lu has not eased up from the heavy blow just now. Gently putting the blade of the bullet stab on Xia Lu's neck, he smiled grimly, as if this was not to kill people, but to watch a magic show, and the bloody scene that would definitely appear afterwards was nothing more than a prop stunt.
Xia Lu didn't struggle, nor did she shout loudly, Dragonov on the side obviously couldn't help, there was now a hole on the black and shiny barrel that almost broke the barrel, and the black paint on the outside had been shaken off, revealing the silver-white stainless steel barrel inside.
"I'll give you three seconds at the end, if there's any last word to say, I won't remember it anyway." He spoke again, as if Xia Lu's performance at this time made him not satisfied enough, and if he didn't see the expression of horror and crying for mercy, this magic show would be a lot more disappointing, he stared at Xia Lu's calm face, waiting for the scene he had imagined before to appear.
But he's going to be disappointed.
"Your words, it's too much." Xia Lu said this sentence calmly, his originally slightly closed eyes opened suddenly, his left arm suddenly raised, and with a soft snap, a silver streamer crossed his arm with a knife on Xia Lu's neck. Suddenly in pain, he couldn't help but withdraw his hand, and Xia Lu took advantage of the moment when the blade left his neck, rolled out of this position, and then bounced up.
Looking at the cut arm, he was slightly surprised, but he was not like others, he couldn't hold the bullet because of the pain, and he didn't even tremble in the slightest, and the white skin under the suit was overflowing with blood, and the white shirt underneath it became blood-red.
"It's weird, when did you get that knife out?" He looked up at Xia Lu and handed the bullet in his hand to his left hand.
"I didn't take it out when, I never took it back." Xia Lu had a serious expression and stared at him closely.
"It seems that you can't stay, even if there is no order from the master, I will kill you." He shook his head, gripped the bullet spike in his left hand, and turned his body towards Xia Lu. Xia Lu was tense all over, and anyone who encountered a close-quarters white-knuckle battle like this would be nervous from the bottom of his heart.
"Rest assured, my knife is fast." He smiled slightly, then stepped on the ground with his feet, and rushed towards Xia Lu quickly, holding the hilt of the knife with both hands, leaning forward, guarding the dagger in his abdomen, and handing it out violently after approaching Xia Lu, the dagger with a cold light stabbed towards Xia Lu with a sound that pierced the air, and the tip of the knife was aimed at Xia Lu's heart, which was a fatal knife.
Of course, Xia Lu will not be restrained, no matter how nervous he is, he must not forget the training he has received, and immediately turned to one side, about to avoid it, and then slashed the dagger in his hand from the bottom left to the right up, with a 45-degree oblique angle, which is a standard left cut, Xia Lu used the dagger to use a move in Japanese kendo.
The blades of the two daggers collided, and a spark burst out, but only for a moment, a force was exerted on the dagger that was advancing straight from the side, and it was easy to spread out the fatal knife he stabbed, and Xia Lu then turned around and rotated in place by inertia, letting him go, and then used a knife in his back that was completely opposite to the previous one. Reverse robe,From the top left to the right down the knife,In fact, Xia Lu doesn't know these Japanese kendo,But he still knows a little about the names of these moves,The reverse robe in Japanese kendo is not easy to defend,A knife with great offensive power,Not to mention the knife to the opponent's back。
However, he did not panic, unhurriedly stabilized his body and then turned around sharply, the dagger slashed horizontally in front of him, and the blades of the two daggers collided again, and a few more sparks burst out.
Constantly stabbing and defending, the two started a white-knuckle battle in the not too wide corridor as before, but both of them are elites, although they have no way to take each other for a while, they can only catch the flaws exposed when the other party attacks, and take the opportunity to attack, but such attacks are always dodged by the other party's turn or a somersault. In other words, this white-knuckle battle can't distinguish the high ground level for a while, but it can be seen that the movements of both sides point to the other party's death and resurrection, and the knives are stabbed out of the key points, as long as one is not careful, he will be hit. However, it cannot be said that the two sides were not injured in this white-knuckle battle, there will always be a knife that is not completely dodged, and then the jacket is cut and left a knife wound on the body. With the passage of time, the wounds on both sides of the body are constantly increasing, in general, Xia Lu's side is not dominant, after all, he is a fleet commander who relies on his brain, and he will not be arranged to combat training even if he has a training plan, these techniques were taught to her by Ye Kexin, so she is not skilled in the opposite side, and Xia Lu can't dodge some too fast blows at all.
With a bang, the dagger in his hand cut through Xia Lu's sleeve, leaving a three-centimeter-long wound on his arm, which made Xia Lu can't help but cover the wound and retreat again and again, avoiding the other party's fierce pursuit, but the other party doesn't seem to give Xia Lu this opportunity, taking advantage of Xia Lu's hand, he hurriedly followed, raised the dagger high above his head, and slashed at Xia Lu's head, Xia Lu's backward speed could not catch up with the speed of his advance, so he could only pick up the dagger in his hand and take the blow hard, But Xia Lu, whose arm was already injured, was already at a disadvantage in terms of strength, such a heavy blow did not come down at all, the dagger was naturally bounced away, and Xia Lu tripped on the carpet under his feet, fell backwards, and with a bang, Xia Lu fell to the ground, and he took the opportunity to ride on Xia Lu's stomach, and the dagger in his hand was added to Xia Lu's neck again.
"You're very good at fighting." He stretched out his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth that had been cut by Xia Lu, and a trace of blood flowed out of his mouth was licked into his mouth.
Xia Lu, who was clamped by the neck, couldn't speak, so she could only stare at him fiercely on top of her, clenching her fists unwillingly.
"In order for you to die more clearly, I'll tell you my name." He slowly exerted his strength, and the sharp blade easily cut through the delicate skin on Xia Lu's neck, and the blood flowed down Xia Lu's neck to the burgundy carpet, dyeing the carpet black, "Assassin, remember, my name is Assassin." ”
After saying that, the left arm was forced, and then there was a thud, and blood splattered everywhere.
The dagger caught Xia Lu's neck fell to the ground with a bang, and the hot blood splashed on Xia Lu's face, and Xia Lu couldn't help but close her eyes.
The Assassin stood up in surprise and retreated, a bright gunshot wound on his left shoulder, I don't know if it was an illusion or reality, it actually slightly emitted white smoke, blood flowed out of the wound, staining a silver suit blood red.
"What's going on! That bunch of garbage, how could it be ······" The assassin judged in his heart, and after confirming that the current situation was not in his favor, he gritted his teeth tightly, "You wait, I will, I will come back." ”
With that, the Assassin turned and ran towards the window not far behind, it was a gunshot, and a white light hit the corner of the glass window accurately, the glass window shattered, and granular glass shards splashed on the floor, and the Assassin jumped up and jumped out of the shattered window.
Xia Lu lay on the ground, motionless, the wound on her neck did not endanger Xia Lu's life, but this wound was a little too close to the carotid artery, once it moved, it was likely to break the carotid artery, Xia Lu did not catch a cold.
Hurried footsteps came, and an obese figure ran to Xia Lu's side, his round face with four dishes and one soup was furrowed, but the curvature of the smile at the corner of his mouth still did not disappear.
"The injury is not serious, but don't move, I'll call the doctor." The real Yamamoto Keiichi couldn't help but be a little worried when he looked at Xia Lu lying on the ground, immediately took out his mobile phone from his pocket, dialed a call, shouted a few times in Japanese that Xia Lu didn't understand, and then stuffed the phone back into his pocket, "I heard the gunshots and rushed over immediately, I'm really sorry, I'm a little late." ”
"Why don't you shoot, you can shoot again." Xia Lu pointed to the window, which was without glass in the distance, and Keiichi Yamamoto smiled bitterly, withdrew the magazine in the pistol, and then pulled the sleeve of the pistol again, and no bullets ejected.
"I'm out of bullets."
"I see." Xia Lu was also helpless and closed her eyes.
Two days later, Tokyo, Japan, the Tokyo headquarters building of the Japanese branch of the Admiralty Security Council.
"A while ago, the fleet sent us a notice that the crash incident was almost resolved, and that we could lower the alert level." Keiichi Yamamoto stood beside Natsuru's bed and read the news received from the fleet to Natsuro, and Natsuru, who was wearing a neck guard, leaned against the head of the bed, eating oranges while listening to Keiichi Yamamoto read out the contents of the notice.
"yes, I see." Xia Lu couldn't nod, so she pointed to the seat next to her, "Thank you so much for coming to see me, Mr. Yamamoto, I don't really care about what the fleet says, but I care a lot about what happened that day, can you explain it to me in detail." ”
"It's fine." Kei Yamamoto nodded, sat in his seat, and put aside the report typed out on printer paper in his hand, "Seven days ago, I received a text message from you, and after receiving it, I immediately asked the people in the logistics department to distribute firearms, but it was too late, and the commissioner who asked for it met the team before he arrived at the logistics department, and in the end there were only more than twenty people gathered. These people seem to be very familiar with the internal structure of the building, and they are specially guarded on the road to the logistics department, which cuts off the road of the commissioners, and then breaks them one by one to give us a real headache, but fortunately they are not for the purpose of killing, so that we have no personnel losses, we are guarding the armory of the logistics department and fighting with them, but these people seem to be looking for something, the number of people who are fighting with us is only six, and the other five people are all scattered, I am a little worried, so I will also disperse the commissioners, So the dozen was five days. Five days later, in the morning, I received a report from a commissioner, saying that the other party had all retreated, I thought that things would not be so simple, so I did not rush to attack, but sent the commissioner to search in the building in a group of three, this search lasted until about eight o'clock in the evening, half past eight is my designated meeting time, but after the commissioners came back, I found that there were two groups of people missing, I had to be suspicious and thought that you did not come back, so I sent a text message to tell you not to come back, I was worried that other people came in this building, But you came back, but I didn't know it at the time, I was still searching the building for the whereabouts of the two groups, and while I was looking for them, I heard gunshots, and after judging the direction, I rushed over, and you will know what happened after that. ”
Xia Lu quietly listened to the story told by Keiichi Yamamoto, and did not interject, and kept breaking the orange in her hand and stuffing it into her mouth, frowning slightly.
"What are these people looking for? Can you determine what they're looking for? Xia Lu swallowed the orange petal in her mouth and asked Keiichi Yamamoto.
"It's been counted, and nothing is missing." Keiichi Yamamoto shook his head, "They may be looking for someone, but after that, it was clear that no one was missing, and Chief Ye Zifeng was also safe in the medical room." ”
"It's really unpredictable." Xia Lu thought for a moment.
"If there's nothing to ask, I'll leave first, you can rest first, and call me if you need anything." Keiichi Yamamoto stood up and said to Natsuru.
"Oh, by the way, can you give me the Dragunov, if you can?" Xia Lu showed an embarrassed smile and raised her hand to scratch the back of her head.
"This, no problem, that one is my private collection, if you want it, I can send it to you, I have sent it to the logistics department to let them replace the broken parts."
"Thank you so much." Xia Lu waved her hand at Kei Yamamoto, who turned to leave.
So, this matter passed without danger, why didn't the assassin kill Xia Lu, if you want to blame him, you can blame him for talking too much. Although the Admiralty has calmed down on the surface, it is still in a state of turmoil, and headache-inducing withdrawal applications have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the members of the Admiralty have become a little tired of this life of worrying every day, and they want to leave and go home to live an ordinary life. However, what is strange is that this is an important moment to strike at the Admiralty, the "Shadow" side is like evaporating from the world, there is no trace of action at all, even the strongholds that were originally arranged in various cities are now calm, there is no action on either side, there are too many things that have happened in this month, first Ye Zifeng was seriously injured and comatose and the Admiralty lost its secret core, and then the "Holy Grail Project" caused a major loss to the volume, and then there is the asteroid ring shadow event and the Tokyo fall incident, Then there is the invasion of the Bermuda Research Institute, too many events happen in a short period of time, and everyone will feel breathless.
But then there was an eerie calm, the world wanted to return to its normal trajectory, everyone calmed down, daily life returned to peace, and the secret struggle between the Admiralty and the "Shadows" all stopped, as if it was colluding, and there were no attacks on one side against the other, and there were no casualties during this time.
The smell of unrest from the seemingly peaceful life made the Admiralty high-level nervous all the time, and there was nothing to do during the period when the fleet was in charge of resisting the invasion of the Pilgrims, and the original annual battle for the defense of the solar system was stopped for a year, and the Pilgrims seemed to have lost interest in the earth, and they did not send a fleet to invade for a year.
The sudden calm of the year gave the Admiralty a respite, but the torrent in the shadows did not stop because of this, as long as the Admiralty still existed, it would not stop, and the war would always come, it was only a matter of time.
