Chapter 125: Catwoman
Xie Liu checked the task paper in his hand, constantly looked at the several buildings in front of him, and finally determined that this was the place where the last signal from the previous level eight superpower was transmitted, although he didn't know if the opponent was still hiding here, Xie Liu still stepped forward very carefully.
"99 Old Street. Xie Liu saw the information given by the city from his watch, and the place where the last party disappeared was here. However, Xie Liu couldn't be sure if the enemy was still here, the only thing he could do was to take one step at a time.
Xie Liu pressed the handle of the knife and slowly approached the faΓ§ade of No. 99 mentioned in the mission, this place was already very hidden, and it was almost the end of this old alleyway. Xie Liu frowned and walked into a seemingly inconspicuous small faΓ§ade in front of him. It reads "100-year-old ancestral shop".
No matter how you look at it, it's an ordinary storefront, Xie Liu pushed open the door and went in with doubts and caution, and then saw a mannequin in a plush coat, in this narrow place, the two rows of mannequins looked very gloomy and heavy.
Xie Liu walked through the dolls with a blank face, and the sound of heavy footsteps gradually walked towards the depths of the store.
"Anyone?" Xie Liu shouted, his eyes looking around.
The quiet atmosphere made Xie Liu a little uneasy, and he kept an eye on the surrounding situation at all times to prevent a sudden attack from the enemy. Then someone answered Xie Liu.
"I'm dripping, I'm grinning, I'm here. Out of the countless dolls came a petite girl, dressed in thick clothes and looking a little bloated, perhaps because it was too cold outside, and wearing a big hat.
"Are you the boss here?" Xie Liu's hand on the knife slowly lowered, and the woman in front of him didn't look like a threat.
"No, I'm the hostess. The woman who had not yet reached Xie Liu's chest smiled, Xie Liu raised her eyebrows in surprise when she saw her face for the first time, not because of anything else, just because this girl was too young, she looked like she was only seventeen or eighteen years old, plus she was originally a thin body, if she didn't pay attention, she would be regarded as a high school student.
Seeing Xie Liu's surprise, this girl didn't seem to be surprised, and continued to ask: "Big brother, you are from outside, aren't you, it's not easy to find us here, what do you want to buy?"
This proprietress seemed to be soliciting business, but Xie Liu didn't answer immediately, after thinking about it, he whispered: "I want to buy a knife, the kind that can kill people." β
The proprietress suddenly changed her face, and then laughed, "Big brother, are you kidding, we are here in a clothing store, and we don't sell knives." Ah, look at the big brother's appearance, it's a COSER, the knife you said must be a knife for COS, this one we don't sell, if you really want it, I'll tell you a good place. β
Xie Liu interrupted this person's words and sneered, "No, what I want is a murderous knife." After speaking, Xie Liu's right hand pressed on the handle of the knife again, his thumb clasped the gauntlet, and slowly pushed away a trace of cold knife light.
"Big brother, you're too unreasonable. The female boss smiled helplessly, and slowly pushed back, inadvertently widening the distance from Xie Liu. "Our shop really doesn't sell knives, only ordinary clothes, you look at this one. She casually took out a piece of clothing from the hanger next to her, "The artistic value of this dress is very high." β
"Very high, how tall is it?" Xie Liu asked in a cold voice not very far from the boss, and the female boss smiled cutely, "It's so high for two or three floors." β
The female boss smiled, and before the words fell, at this moment, Xie Liu's knife was already out of its sheath, and the cold light appeared, stabbing directly at the proprietress .
And the proprietress reacted unhappily, with a wave of the clothes in her hand with her backhand, wrapped Xie Liu's knife, and shook it hard, throwing Xie Liu's knife aside, Xie Liu's figure followed the knife, and after turning in the air, it landed on the counter.
"Would the proprietress of an ordinary family have such good skills? I think it's really condescending to let you sell clothes. Xie Liu shook off the clothes that had been cut off the blade, and the long knife turned upside down, slowly entering the sheath, and collected the cold light in the scabbard around his waist.
After dodging Xie Liu's knife, the little girl-like proprietress in front of her knew that she had been exposed, and immediately opened the distance between her and Xie Liu, and in the fight just now, the hat on her head was thrown out, revealing a pair of fluffy cat ears on the top of her head.
At this moment, this guy was like a fried cat, grinning at Xie Liu. Xie Liu sneered, "What, don't you pretend?"
"How did you find me?" Catwoman hunched her body, as if she was going to pounce in the next moment, but she didn't move because she was afraid of the weapon in Xie Liu's hand.
Xie Liu sneered as he confronted Catwoman, "You think you hide it well, but you can't escape my eyes at all." β
"First of all, the first moment I entered the store, when you saw me. Xie Liu tapped his weapon, "Such an obvious outfit, if you are an ordinary person, you will be surprised, but you didn't show your surprise, you didn't even hesitate, you can only say, you know I'll come." β
"Second. Xie Liu stood up from the counter, "It doesn't seem to be too cold now." β
Although spring has not really arrived, the temperature outside has begun to rise, which Xie Liu knows very well, his eyes swept over the female boss's body, "You are still wearing such thick clothes, isn't it hot? β
Catwoman's face changed slightly, and she removed the coat that wrapped her with her backhand, revealing her petite body, Xie Liu saw her appearance clearly, this woman's physique is indeed very petite, but she is as strong as a leopard, at this moment she is wearing short-sleeved clothes that can only be found in summer, and the most eye-catching thing is the cat's tail sticking out from behind, fluffy, black and white.
Xie Liu let out a slur sound, "The special alliance's thing that makes people not ghosts and ghosts." The catwoman on the other side didn't expect Xie Liu's observation to be so detailed, but she still questioned, "Based on these two points alone, how can you be sure that I am the enemy?"
"Of course not. Xie Liu shook his head, "I almost understand, why the three guys in front of you fell in love with your Dao, haven't you noticed? β
"What's wrong with that?" Catwoman didn't understand what was wrong, she improvised the language of the country through a neural transmission system. The first few times she successfully concealed the few people who came to chase her, but it didn't work on this guy.
"There is a big problem. Xie Liu laughed, "The people who chased you in front of you were local citizens from the city, and they communicated with you through a translation device, so they didn't care about your accent at all." β
"But I'm different, I'm a native of this land, and your accent is the biggest flaw. Xie Liu pointed out her question, then gave a thumbs up and pointed behind her, "Also, the sign on your store says ancestral century-old shop, where does the foreign accent come from?"
Seeing that Xie Liu had already recognized her identity, Catwoman no longer spoke broken and accented Huaxia. "Can't you hunters let us go?"
Xie Liu was slightly stunned, and opened his mouth to say: "Wait, your line is wrong, shouldn't it be that you were identified by me, and then you were furious, and then made cruel words, and finally I was killed in a dashing manner?"
"How can you be a villain?" Xie Liu couldn't help but complain, and the catwoman on the other side didn't expect Xie Liu to say such strange words, and his thinking was slightly stunned, but Xie Liu immediately moved.
That's right, what kind of messy lines, that's not what Xie Liu wants to say at all, his purpose is only one, to divert the opponent's attention, and then kill with one blow. The moment he saw Catwoman's stunned, Xie Liu's knife was already out of its sheath, and Xie Liu didn't dare to use the jet boost in this downtown area, for fear of causing unnecessary panic. The knife in his hand stabbed at Catwoman silently.
"You are despicable!" Catwoman didn't expect Xie Liu's way of making a knife so unconventionally, seeing that Xie Liu's knife was in front of her, Catwoman couldn't retreat with her whole body no matter how fast she reacted.
In a hurry, she slammed the table under her feet, and with a bang, Catwoman fell to the ground full of debris, seemingly hitting her hips, and she let out a "meow" cry in pain.
Xie Liu didn't expect that the thorn had been pierced into the air, and before he could withdraw the knife, he saw that Catwoman had already rolled out of the ground, rolled all the way to the wall, and slammed the button on the wall, and then the entire store fell into darkness.
Xie Liu turned his head slightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the door of the store suddenly closed, and the clothing store fell into darkness.
Xie Liu was a little surprised by the sudden darkness, but he quickly got used to it, he just blinked, and then he got used to the darkness here. "Cat instincts?"
Thinking of this, Xie Liu's eyes swept over and saw Catwoman in the dark gently leaving her original position. The cat's night vision ability is very powerful, and such a powerful night vision ability has also been taken by the people of the Special Alliance and implanted in the body of the transformed person.
"It's effective, but I don't think it's acceptable. Although Xie Liu likes the cat-eared girl in the anime, but anime is one thing, reality is another, and when he really meets it, Xie Liu doesn't think that a pair of fluffy ears and a fluffy tail are such cute things.
In the dark, Catwoman was like a fried cat, walking back and forth around Xie Liu, as if looking for flaws, which was the cat's hunting instinct. Xie Liu's knife was already back in its scabbard, and he held it in his left hand, turning his body gently in the dark, pretending to defend against a sudden attack, Xie Liu was waiting for Catwoman to attack him, so as to kill her with a backhand. The other side will not know his eye ability, and in the dark, Xie Liu can see more clearly than this catwoman.
Catwoman stepped on small steps, circled, and gradually approached, Xie Liuming saw clearly, but pretended not to see, and aimed the knife in his hand in the wrong direction.
Catwoman's figure walks between countless pieces of clothing, like a ghost without a sound. Soon we were not far away. A smile appeared on the corner of Xie Liu's mouth, the other party had already taken the bait, Xie Liu's right hand was on the handle of the knife, just waiting for the other party's attack, he would immediately be able to cut this guy into two pieces with one knife and complete the task.
The catwoman in the dark touched Xie Liu's vicinity, showing her claws full of nails, she estimated the distance between herself and Xie Liu, and felt that she could kill with one blow, and then she didn't make a sound, pounced, and showed a fatal claw in her hand, grabbing Xie Liu's head directly!
"Zheng-" Xie Liu's knife was also unsheathed at that moment, and the cold light flashed, and Xie Liu's knife was thrown at the catwoman who pounced on her back.
"I've been deceived!" Catwoman was shocked, her reaction was not unpleasant, seeing Xie Liu's knife thrown over, she twisted her body violently in the air, and actually dodged the knife, but there was still no sword energy swept to her thigh, a trace of blood flew out, Catwoman snorted, jumped over Xie Liu's head, and hid in the clothes without a sound.
