Chapter 19: The Attack of the Night
It's night.
In the guest room on the top floor of this big post station, Lu Fan was lying on his bed, seemingly looking at the ceiling, but in fact, in the field of vision of his eyes, he was checking his system panel.
The ball in the backpack has a little more experience, it seems that even if it is not a battle, it will still increase the gain of experience, but Lu Fan has not yet understood the mechanism of experience acquisition.
On the bed next to her, Akane was sitting on the edge of the bed, combing her long black hair, which was still wet after washing.
There's nothing like a hair dryer in this world, and long hair is really a problem.
Seeing that long wet hair, Lu Fan was thinking about whether to combine a fireball technique and an anemolodo to form a hot air to try to dry her hair.
It's going to blow into an exploding head......
"I always feel that my husband is thinking about something very rude......
Akane's voice interrupted Lu Fan's brain, accompanied by Akane's projected gaze.
Shaking his hand with a smile, Lu Fan, who was about to explain something, suddenly had a thought.
There is movement.
There was the sound of several people walking on the roof, and although the sound was very subtle, it was still discovered by itself.
Picking up the wooden stick placed next to the bed, Lu Fan jumped out of bed, put his body in front of the door, and started the detection technique.
When Qian saw Lu Fan like this, she naturally guessed that things were not ordinary, so she didn't make a sound, and quietly got out of bed.
After turning on the detection technique, he had more access to sound, and Lu Fan immediately heard the footsteps of about 7 or 8 people on the roof of the building.
What kind of person, sneaky on the rooftop?
Lu Fan thought that the two of them who were also on the top floor were Cheng Moyin, her guards and two regiment commanders.
"Who?!"
I was about to go out to warn him, when I suddenly heard a loud roar from next door, and then there was the sound of the window opening next door, and then someone climbed out of the window and jumped on the roof.
It seems that Captain Potter and they have also discovered the abnormality, considering Akane's safety, Lu Fan did not continue to act, and continued to listen to the movement of the roof.
And with Potter's loud roar, the entire post station instantly lit up, and a sound of footsteps came, accompanied by the shouts of the mercenaries.
And at this time, there was also a voice from upstairs.
"As the head of Potter, I feel really sharp. ”
"Less nonsense, who are you and why are you sneaking around on our rooftops?"
This loud voice is Algi as soon as you hear it.
However, he was answered by a scimitar that slashed at his neck in an instant.
With the sound of a bell, Potter had stepped forward to hold the scimitar.
"I've heard for a long time that Captain Potter is good at wielding double knives, and this time he really understands it. ”
"You're not bad either. ”
The two separated again in an instant, and Potter retreated to Alge's side, reminding Alge in a whisper:
"Don't take it lightly, this man is just like me. ”
When Alge heard Potter's reminder, he understood that the person in front of him was also a level 6 powerhouse, and he held the axe he was holding tighter, although he could still see the speed of the knife just now, but he couldn't keep up, but fortunately, Potter saved him.
At this moment, the surrounding rooftops climbed up one after another to the mercenaries, surrounding several black-clothed people.
"Hey, the trash fish are pretty fast. "The man in black in the lead saw that the whereabouts of himself and the others were completely exposed, and he knew that there was no hope tonight.
"Who the hell are you here, and what are your goals here?" asked Potter as he saw his men surrounding them.
"Hmph, Captain Potter, we'll see you next time. The leader did not answer.
"Don't you want to run with so many of us?" Algi stepped forward and flung his axe over.
However, before the axe could fly, clouds of smoke rose from the black-clothed people in front of them.
"Smoke bombs!"
By the time the smoke had cleared, the men in black had long since disappeared.
......
......
"They didn't explain their intentions?" Under the light in the room, Cheng Moyin looked at Potter who was standing by the door, and the guard Uncle Zhong was also standing beside her.
Potter shook his twin knives in his hands as he spoke: "Yes, this is a very organized group, after we fought with them, except for the leader who spoke and fought with each other, no one else moved, and there was no information at all, and if it weren't for the sound from his men, I guess we wouldn't have found them so quickly." ”
"Yes, Miss, I heard them too, but for your safety, I didn't take part in the battle on the rooftop. Uncle Zhong on the side also responded.
"Miss Cheng, do you have any clues, for this group of people. Potter continued.
Cheng Moyin shook her head, she just followed her family's orders, and there was no special situation before the patriarch's grandfather left.
"Then we won't bother Miss Cheng anymore. With that, Potter opened the door and walked out.
"Miss, I'm out too, I'm just outside the door, and I'm called for something at any time. ”
After Uncle Zhong went out, Cheng Moyin was still sitting in the house, thinking about why there was such a group of people.
At this time, in a position that many people did not pay attention to, a person was lying silently by the window on the side of the top floor.
It was the man in black who had been here before, and when plan 1 failed, he offered to come back and carry out the previous plan.
As a person with only level 5 strength, he once had the experience of successfully poisoning a target under the protection of a level 7 powerhouse.
The reason is his unique light work. As a secret book of Yuan Li that I don't know from which wife's grandfather's relics were found. He has the ability to move even if he is only a level 5 powerhouse, and he has the ability to easily detect a level 7 powerhouse, as well as an exclusive wall climbing technique.
Let me assassinate you in the house.
He was a bold artist, so he naturally crawled by the window without any scruples.
However, just as he had climbed past the first window, he was still two rooms away from his target.
"Why is this room so stuffy?"
The window next to him suddenly opened and slammed into his fingers......
Looking at the unlucky guy who fell to the bottom of the building screaming and was caught by the mercenaries who had not dispersed, Lu Fan shook his head helplessly.
"What happened?" The black-haired girl who was still sitting on the bed looked at Lu Fan who suddenly opened the window suspiciously.
"Nothing, it's just a little hot, open a window to breathe, it's really late, it's time to sleep. Lu Fan smiled and walked back to his bedside.
The black-haired girl tilted her head and stared at Lu Fan for a while, and Lu Fan was a little uncomfortable before she withdrew her gaze.
This unlucky ghost was discovered by himself when he came before, and now he dares to come back when he didn't turn off the detection technique.
I just overheard what was being discussed next door, and before I could turn off my skills, I heard the movement outside the building.
I opened the window with my hand, but I used a little bit of effort.
"Number Three missed. It was still that dark corner, the leader said in a low voice. "As a member of us, you also know what it means to miss, the enemy's strength is higher than ours, the plan is temporarily shelved, and we will continue to operate when subsequent reinforcements arrive. ”
"Yes!"
......
......
Early the next morning
"That man killed himself?" Potter looked at his men, scratching his head.
"Yes, sir, we smoked him all night, and when it was almost dawn, he took a little rest, and when he didn't pay attention, he committed suicide by breaking through his own heart. ”
"Didn't give anything all night?" Algi asked, too.
"Yes, not only did he say nothing, but he didn't have anything on him to prove his identity. ”
...... Potter looked down and thought for a moment, Algi was about to speak, but Potter stretched out his hand to interrupt him: "Needless to say, I probably have a guess, just like you think." ”
And Lu Fan also stretched his waist and walked out of the post station. Akane followed him.
Alji saw Lu Fan at this time, beckoned, and walked over: "Yo! Brother Lu woke up, how did you sleep last night? Huh?
"Oh! I was a little unwell a few days ago, so I have been on crutches, and now I am almost recovering, thank you for the concern of the deputy head of the regiment, I heard a lot of noise outside last night, what happened?"
Looking at Lu Fan, who was talking nonsense with her eyes open, the black-haired girl rolled her eyes helplessly, but there was no squeak.
Attention was immediately sucked back from his lap to the black-clothed man's Alge, but he didn't hide anything, after all, the mercenary who was the client was not a combatant yet, and he really should know what was going on.
“...... That's the way it is, the man in black who died is really unlucky, it seems that he was knocked down by a window on our first floor, and it seems to be ...... Brother Lu's window. Algi was reminiscing about this question when it suddenly occurred to him.
"Ah...... That's because ......" Lu Fan didn't expect to be mentioned suddenly, and he was still thinking about the reason.
"Because I was woken up by the sound outside the voice, Mr. opened the window to see who was arguing, it should have just knocked that person down, right?" The black-haired girl suddenly helped Lu Fan out of the siege.
"Oh oh! it was very noisy last night, and that's a coincidence!" Algi didn't think much of it, laughed a few times, and turned back to order the rest of his men to pack their bags.
Looking at Lu Fan's grateful gaze, the girl pursed her lips, not looking very appreciative.
It seems that the reasons for her series of actions last night have been seen through by her again.
Lu Fan touched his nose in embarrassment, but he was also shocked when he heard the news of the death of the man in black.
Dead man, it seems that it is not a good stubble to target this client, Miss Cheng, I hope it will not affect Qian.
Looking at the girl in front of him who left a small back of his head for himself, Lu Fan smiled and quickened his pace to follow.
The team is still moving forward and is about to enter the Twin Peaks Canyon.
Still on the truck behind the team, looking at the black-haired girl who twisted her head and ignored her, Lu Fan felt very painful.
I seem to have done something wrong, but I don't seem to know very well, I'm really not good at communicating with girls, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten along with Ah Yin for two years and still be a virgin.
Looking at Lu Fan, who was embarrassed and didn't know where to put his hands and feet there, Qian finally couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud.
"Sir, if there is anything next time, just tell me directly, don't hide it from others anymore, okay?"
Scratching his head, Lu Fan probably understood.
The little girl was dissatisfied with herself and often didn't tell her what happened in order to protect her.
It's really kind.
