Chapter 19: Despair After the Fire
"Oh? What do you want to know? The afterimage reached out and touched the crack on the mask, and said in a flat tone, because he was wearing a mask, Zheng Hanfei didn't know that a strange smile was covered under the mask.
"Your true face." Zheng Hanfei pointed to the mask of the afterimage, and said slowly, "I want to know the true face of you hidden in the mask, this is what I want to know, there is still a minute and a half, I hope you don't waste time." ”
The afterimage was stunned, originally he thought that Zheng Hanfei would ask him about the organization or his own background, who would have thought that Zheng Hanfei would be interested in his identity, and looked at Zheng Hanfei with a puzzled eye for a while, as if asking why he wanted to know this kind of thing.
"There's no why." Reading the language in the eyes of the afterimage, Zheng Hanfei moved his wrist, removed the bandages that wrapped his hands, and saw the wound in his palm split, he couldn't help but smack his lips, and said casually, "To be honest, it's useless if I ask about memory or organization, I don't have a mobile phone, I can't tell anyone at all, I can only die with the news, so I think it's better to understand some real problems, if I haven't even seen the true face of defeating the thief, will this death be a little unwilling?" ”
"I'm sorry, I really can't agree to this request, the time has not come, it's better not to show my true colors to others." The afterimage covered his mask and laughed a few times, and slowly spoke, "Even those who are dying can!" But...... Detective, if you can do me a favor, I can assure you that one day in the future, you will be the first to see me for what I really am. ”
"So you're trying to break the agreement?" Zheng Hanfei frowned, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, and he said sarcastically: "I didn't expect that the famous Ding Ding thief would not abide by the agreement, I really don't know what others will think when this news is heard." ”
"Not keeping the promise?! NO! NO! NO! Detective, you seem to have gotten one thing wrong, when did I say you won? Did you really touch the corner of my clothes? The afterimage shook his finger, his eyes narrowing, and a playful smile curled under his mask.
Hearing this, Zheng Hanfei suddenly became anxious, and just wanted to point to the crack on the afterimage mask and say a few words, he was stunned, only the surface of the mask was white and flawless, not to mention the cracks, not to mention the cracks, even a trace of dust could not be seen, as if the cracks that came out before were just hallucinations, and in the hands of the afterimage, he was holding a transparent sticker with some sparse lines drawn on it, seeing this, Zheng Hanfei immediately understood what was going on.
"I lost." Zheng Hanfei smiled helplessly, feeling that the blow he had just now had no effect at all, but the afterimage looked at him pitiful, and cooperated, he still believed it, it was really a joke in front of the enemy, no, it should be a temporary friend.
"Detective, you're doing a good job." The afterimage threw the sticker in his hand behind him, not only did he deliberately but also coincidentally, the sticker was completely pasted on the glass of the passenger cabin, and an obvious crack immediately appeared on the glass, "The previous warm-up exercise was just a practice technique. In the real competition, the flying cards, the warm-up movement is basically the same attack to obfuscate me, the most important blow is the two cards with a huge C-arc to confuse the opponent, and the one that almost hit my mask, if I guessed correctly, in fact, you deliberately did not aim at me, not because of a mistake. ”
"You're right." Zheng Hanfei smiled, and then said with the afterimage's words, "Use that rapid playing card to hit two playing cards that confuse you with a huge C-shaped arc, so as to change direction and hit you from behind, just in case, I also used two playing cards, but unfortunately I just temporarily sharpened the gun, although it was successful, but the angle was still a little problematic, it didn't hit your mask, it was a mistake!" Okay, whatever you want, what do you want? ”
"Do me a favor." The afterimage didn't talk nonsense, and cut straight to the point, "But don't worry, the previous words still count, and when the time comes, I will let you be the first to see my true face, of course, I can also reward you, you can ask me a question about the organization or about your background." ”
"Help?! You're not mistaken?! Zheng Hanfei blinked, stared at the afterimage with a fool's eye, and said with a smile, "We have less than a minute left in our lives, what can you ask me to help?" ”
"Just say you can't help? I don't force you! Probably knowing that there was not much time left, the afterimage didn't explain too much, just looked at Zheng Hanfei and said in an extremely dignified tone, "If I don't help, the competition just now will be the most exciting thing in my life." ”
Seeing that the afterimage didn't look like a joke, Zheng Hanfei couldn't say anything, one word! Help! You can't be a man of your word, if you don't understand this truth, Zheng Hanfei doesn't have to be a detective.
"That's good! Since you agreed, then I'll tell you what the hell to help! The afterimage nodded, and his voice gradually decreased, if Zheng Hanfei hadn't pricked up his ears and listened carefully, he might not have heard what the afterimage was saying at all, "As long as you ......"
"How is that possible?!" After listening to the afterimage's request, Zheng Hanfei shouted and looked at the afterimage in disbelief, "It's not that I can't help you with this kind of thing, but at this critical juncture, how can you let me help?" If we can get out of the explosion and stay alive, I'll say yes! ”
"Perhaps...... We're really going to get out of danger. The afterimage looked up at the starry sky again and said lightly.
"What do you mean?" Zheng Hanfei frowned, he was very curious about what the afterimage said, but unfortunately no matter how he asked, the afterimage didn't speak, just looked at the beautiful starry sky, although it was covered by a white mask, Zheng Hanfei could feel that he had a happy smile on his face all the time, as if he was thinking of something.
That's it, since you don't talk about me, I don't bother to ask! Zheng Hanfei stretched his waist and sat on the cold iron sheet, there was still half a minute before the explosion time, he just had to enjoy the last moment of his life.
The starry sky is so beautiful. Looking up at the sky, there was a hint of bitterness at the corner of Zheng Hanfei's mouth, such a beautiful scenery, he would never see it again in the future, but if he saw such a beautiful scenery before he died, why should he die? He's happier already.
……
"Hoo-ha-ha-ha! It's all your fault, Ouyang Xiu, I have to wait for Inspector Zhou Zheng, it's good now, it's still half a minute away, we just arrived at the London Eye, what do you say next! Nan Ruoxun panted and held on to the railing, looked at the time, and began to complain to Ouyang Xiu, "You president who has dropped the chain." ”
"Hey, what are you complaining about, aren't we here!" Ouyang Xiu, who had waited for a long time and didn't see Zhou Zheng come over to gather, was on fire, and when he heard Nan Ruoxun say this, the fire broke out directly and began to argue with her, "Also, what should I do to drop the chain, why do I push everything on me!" ”
"Isn't it?! We've been all the way! Nan Ruoxun's fist tightened slightly, and smashed directly into the handrail beside him, and when he slammed, the originally straight armrest was directly recessed into a piece, and the faces of the other people who watched it were a little pale, especially Ouyang Xiu, who subconsciously swallowed and spit, he now regretted arguing with Nan Ruoxun, which was obviously an unwise choice.
"Okay, okay, don't make any noise!" Qu Menghan couldn't stand it anymore, stood between the two of them, and persuaded, "Why is it starting infighting now, don't forget the purpose of our coming here, and don't forget that we are a group, while there is still some time, hurry up to the No. 13 cabin......"
Before she finished speaking, the explosion directly drowned out her voice, and everyone heard the sound and found that the No. 13 cabin had turned into a sea of fire, and countless paper ashes were flying all over the sky.
"Look, what's that?!" Di Luo pointed to the ground in front of him and shouted, everyone's attention was directly attracted by Di Luo's voice, Nan Ruoxun and Qu Menghan, who suddenly felt uneasy in their hearts, ran over as soon as possible, and when they saw that thing, the two women were stunned, their brains buzzed, and their bodies fell to the ground involuntarily.
Syllable! Gu Jie's eyes quickly caught the two women who were about to fall to the ground, slowly put them on the ground, and picked up the object on the ground, which was a burned out watch, there seemed to be some handwriting on the reverse side of the surface, although it was blurred, but Gu Jie could still make out it, it was a big "Zheng" character.
Won't it ...... No way! That guy won't die so easily! Gu Jie subconsciously held the watch, his eyes were blank, his teeth were clenched, and two tears couldn't help but flow from the corners of his eyes......
The warm flame brings only despair and helplessness!
