Chapter Seventy-Eight: Infiltration
Lista flies fast, and at full strength, it can even break through the speed of sound. However, in order to hide the track and prevent it from being detected by too much noise, it did not exert all its strength. It only took him about half a minute to reach the mansion where the city lord lived.
It is said to be a mansion, but it is actually bigger than the palace and much more prosperous. The high platform that rises from the ground, covers an area of 200,000 square meters, 300 meters high, and is surrounded by stone carvings with different steps and postures, fountains, neon lights, etc., which set off the identity of the owner here.
The glazed bricks and glazed tiles look unusually magnificent under the illumination of colorful lights, as if they are in another world, which makes people feel shocked and heartbroken.
Lista slowed down, observing the layout of the mansion and its defenses, looking for a breakthrough.
The mansion was guarded on all sides, wearing dark green guard uniforms, holding MP5 submachine guns in both hands, and a pistol pinned to their waists, because the distance was too far to see what model it was.
Although none of these technological weapons pose a threat to Lista, it is difficult to guarantee that they do not have RPG individual rockets, and if they are against this thing, it is really difficult to say whether they will be able to complete the mission.
Lista landed from a high altitude and landed straight onto the roof of the mansion with a light movement that was not noticed by anyone. Quietly, through a skylight, he sneaked in.
The interior is brightly lit, all the electric lights are used, the ceramic floors and walls are so smooth that they can reflect the human figures, and the decoration is very luxurious. There are many murals, but most of them are portraits of young men, in different poses, including those wearing military uniforms, suits, and baroque costumes holding a rose, and the following is marked with the appearance of the city lord in his twenties, it can be seen that the city lord here is quite narcissistic, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a narcissistic maniac.
Lista was very careful, not even touching the floor, so as not to leave a trace, and walked lightly through the corridors, sometimes having to hide on the high ceilings in order to avoid the lord's retainers, and only after they had left, did not continue to explore.
After ten minutes of exploration, Lista was a little discouraged, because the place was too big, there were many rooms, and there were no signs, and the most important thing was that there was no key yet, which was really difficult for him.
"The space teleportation magic has not yet been fully mastered, and if you use it rashly, you may be seriously injured. Alas, let's catch the maid and ask!" Lista pondered for a moment, and quickly made up his mind.
After a while, a young woman in her twenties, dressed in a pink maid costume, walked directly below.
"Actually let the maid wear pink, this city lord really has a lot of habits. Lista teased in his heart, but the movement of his hand was not slow, he descended straight without making a sound, and then from the back of the maid, his right hand covered his mouth, and his left hand grabbed his calf, and took him away.
"Woo, woo......" the maid tried to scream, but could only make a whining sound.
"No movement, no shouting. Lista let out a low growl, then took the maid in his arms and hid in a hidden corner, then took out the bright boring knife and placed it around her neck. "From now on, I will ask you a few questions, and you must answer them honestly, or I will kill you. ”
The maid was immediately frightened, her legs trembled, and she almost became incontinent, "Don't kill me, don't kill me, whatever you want to know, I'll tell you." ”
"Where's your lord's study?" Lista wanted to turn a corner and test if the maid could lie, but thinking that time was pressing, he gave up and asked the point.
"I know, I know. The maid noticed that the man in front of her had added a little more force to the boring knife, and felt the coldness and sharpness of the blade, and immediately her hair stood on end in fright, and she hurriedly replied, for fear of annoying this guy and killing herself, "Go forward from this aisle, and when you encounter the first fork, go left to the end." ”
"Take me there. "Lista wasn't going to just let her go, if she reported the guards, her next move would be in trouble.
After dodging several waves of retainers, Lista finally arrived at the city lord's study as the maid had spoken.
"Is there a key?" Lista briefly checked the structure of the door and knocked on it, but there was no movement inside, indicating that there was no one inside.
"I don't have a key, and we are not allowed to enter or leave the study without the permission of the city lord. Even if it was cleaning, it was done under the supervision of the lord of the castle. The maid hurriedly waved her hand and shook her head, and looked at Lista in fear, for fear of a violent murder.
Lista stared into the maid's eyes for a moment, made sure she wasn't lying, warned again, and then prepared to break down the door violently.
The maid was like a frightened quail, cowering in the corner and not daring to move, only daring to peek at what Lista was doing at the moment with the peripheral vision of her eyes, which immediately stunned her.
Lista pressed the tip of the boring knife next to the door lock, and then used the force of the wind to send four spiral-shaped air streams out of the tip of the knife, intertwining with each other, spinning rapidly, twisting the sawdust into a flying flake, but because of the sharpness of the air blade, it did not make much noise.
In a few moments, a circular hole the size of a fist was pierced. Lista put away the boring knife, reached inside, and unlocked the door from the inside out.
"Get in. Lista shoved the maid in, and at the same time walked in with him, and then closed the door. In order to prevent accidents, he decided to tie up the maid first, so as not to give her a chance to escape while he was rummaging through the ledger.
He took out the rope, then tied the maid to the chair with her backhand, and finally tied her legs, and then began her work.
The room of more than forty square meters was filled with all kinds of books and documents, which suddenly made Lista gasp, "There are so many, where can I find them?"
Lista flipped through some documents, but didn't find anything, "No, there must be more than one ledger, if you want to hide it, you must put it in a more secret place." ”
Lista began to think, and when he recalled that he had passed through the hallway, it suddenly occurred to him, "The distance between rooms is almost equal, but this room is far away from the other rooms, could it be that there is a secret door?"
Lista scrutinized the walls and shelves, eventually spotting a rotary switch on the back of a book, "This is it." ”
Lista turned the switch, and the bookshelf moved to the side, revealing another door.
There was no light in the dark room, but it didn't matter, Lista looked through some casually, and sure enough, they were all ledgers, densely recording the taxes they levied, as well as the stolen money they received from the rich business bosses and the underworld.
"No matter, take it all first. Lista's movements were very neat, and with a light flick of his big hand, he put away all these ledgers by himself.
"Where is your lord of the city, and take me to him. "Lista untied the maid's ropes, the ledger was in hand, and he was not afraid of being discovered.
"Probably in his own bedroom, but if I disturb him now, I will be punished. The maid thought of the usual tyranny of the city lord, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"You just have to take me there, and when you get there, you can leave on your own, I won't say that you brought me here. Lista gave the maid a reassurance, which reassured the maid a lot.
After six or seven minutes of leading the way, Lista finally arrived at the city lord's bedroom. As promised, Lista let the maid go, and he was not afraid of the maid lying, because if he told the story of entering the study and getting the ledger, then she herself would be dead.
Lista politely knocked on the door, and an angry curse rang out.
"Which bastard? Didn't I tell you, don't bother me at this time. ”
Lista wanted to have a friendly meeting, but when he heard this, he gave up. Kicked directly on the door, and suddenly, with a bang, the door was kicked out directly, and even the door frame was exploded.
"Ah......h
"Who the hell are you?" was an old man's voice.
Lista walked into the room, the light was still on, and there was a man and a woman on the bed, **** body.
The woman's appearance is okay, she looks like she is twenty or thirty years old, and she is looking at Lista in horror at the moment.
The man was in his fifties, bald, with a rare gray hair, and a disgusting beard, which was really not a good match for the woman under him.
"Who are you?" the old man was furious, grabbed the pistol from under the mattress, and loaded it with a pull, and shot it at Lista.
The bullet hit Lista in the shoulder, but it didn't leave any wounds and was thrown off the ground.
The old man was stunned and fired two more shots, with the same result.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just here to talk to you about a deal. Mr. Tannos. Lista took out a ledger, which stunned the old man.
"How did you get this?" Old man Tannos was stunned, he couldn't be more familiar with this ledger, this is his own black history, if it is spread, then he, the city lord, will not want to go now.
"You don't care how I got it, I just want to ask you if you want to go back. With a smile on her lips, Lista seemed to be at ease, using it to put pressure on the other party.
"What do you mean by this, do you want to threaten me, intimidate me, or blackmail?" said the old man Tannos, who was actually stalling for time, and he was not afraid of what this man would do to him, because he could see that this guy was asking for himself. And the gunfire just now will definitely alarm the guards outside, and then he will be able to get the initiative.
"You have to listen to what I say, don't think about delaying time, those rotten sweet potato rotten eggs outside you don't pose any threat to me at all. Lista drew his boring knife and waved his hand like a wind blade, and the large glass window was instantly shattered, and the shards and steel frame fell down with a clatter.
The old man Tannos was stunned, the other party was doing this just to designate a place for the guards, which showed that the other party had no fear.
