[4. You are now the agent of the manager of District Three, Maura Garno. This identity will bring you some benefits, but exposure will bring endless dangers. It's not just the council members who can threaten you, but also other agents and ability users. 】
When Lu Ning got into the taxi, she discovered that there was one more personal secret in her phone.
Can this thing be added temporarily?
To her, the identity of an agent was better than nothing. The protection provided by Moura was probably a landmine. Triggering it once was about the same as revealing her identity, but generally speaking, it should have a certain effect of avoiding death.
After weighing the pros and cons for a while, Lu Ning put aside the matter and turned to thinking about the tenth district.
Dr.D is probably the "doctor", but it's still unclear what kind of weird abilities this doctor has. Since I have a clue that can directly connect to a certain member of the Heavenly Kingdom Council, to be fair, other tourists probably also have it, and there are probably not a few who have triggered secrets such as agents.
After learning the news, she had to re-evaluate the situation of Guo Mengyu's three tourists.
The identities of these three people are not imposed, but are part of the scene. Now it seems that the identity of the agent is a bit subtle. If every council member has one, is Guo Mengyu also the agent?
Lu Ning was basically certain that the other party had concealed some key information. Compared to the ordinary purpose of revenge, some people may be exposed to some major secrets, the kind that go straight to the core of the entire city.
It was already past seven o'clock when she returned to the villa area. When Lu Ning walked towards her house, she also checked on her mobile phone whether the surveillance around the house was functioning normally. After confirming that nothing went wrong, I opened the door and returned home.
At this moment, she suddenly began to understand the psychology of those who said they lived in a big house but felt scared.
Lu Ning walked to the kitchen and started cooking with some of the remaining ingredients, but she was mentally alert to her surroundings. She didn't doubt that Maura said the killer would come back tonight, so she wouldn't feel at ease until the matter was resolved.
Until I finished cooking, there was still no change. Lu Ning loaded the food on two plates and returned to the dining room, sat down and started eating. At night, the villa area was so quiet that only the birds chirped, and the surrounding houses were also deserted.
During the meal, Lu Ning used her mobile phone to open the HELLSPEED website and took a glance at it. She found that there were indeed many new bounties on it, and most of them were for serial killers. However, if you browse carefully, there was also a "material recycling" in it. Task.
Just as she was checking this task, there was a sudden noise upstairs, which seemed to be the sound of a heavy object falling on the wooden board.
Lu Ning sat motionless in her seat, and there was no movement upstairs.
================
Morrison quietly opened the back door from the backyard and walked into the house.
His teacher didn't have much time to deal with the matter, so Morrison volunteered to take over the task. For a killer who has successfully carried out four missions and is about to "make his debut", killing a seventeen-year-old girl living alone is as easy as picking off a flower.
The preset mechanism upstairs has already started. I'm afraid the noise has made this girl a little panicked. Although the teacher mentioned that this girl had the courage to go to Districts 10 and 4 to investigate alone, investigation and facing death are two different concepts.
He took out a silenced pistol from his pocket. Given the distance between the buildings in this villa area, shooting in one house and in other houses would never hear anything.
As a killer, Morrison still doesn't have the bad habit of toying with his prey. Now he only needs to send the bullet into the brain of the distracted target, not the heart, which is the "predetermined" cargo.
When he walked through the short corridor and touched the glass door of the restaurant, he did not see the other party's figure in the lighted restaurant.
Hiding?
Morrison frowned. If it was the target this time, there might be such a twist. His eyes scanned the surrounding area. Apart from some cupboards, there was no place to hide people in the restaurant. Instead, there was a sliding door leading to the yard. The door was slightly open at the moment.
He ran pretty fast...
Morrison raised his gun on alert, reached out a hand and grabbed the groove on the door frame, intending to open the door and chase outside, but at this moment, his fingertips felt a slight pain, as if they had been cut by something sharp. Broken finger.
"You don't look like a veteran."
A voice sounded behind him, and Morrison was startled. Regardless of the pain in his hand, he turned his head and pointed his gun behind him, but he did not see the other person.
Lu Ning stood behind the wall outside the restaurant.
"I originally thought that some assassination veteran came to attack tonight and arranged some extra things...but that's okay."
She looked at her phone. The death-avoidance count had reached three, and the assassin's assassination had been independently counted.
"you……"
Morrison could already feel the numbness in his arms, and the sharp pain spread rapidly along his fingertips to his whole body. His heart was beating violently, and he tried his best to save the life that was about to pass away.
"At least it has been verified that the poison is genuine. I will keep your pistol. Good night."
The young killer's body fell heavily to the ground, still twitching. The pistol was thrown to the ground two meters away when he fell, but he was unable to crawl over.
"One minute and eight seconds." Lu Ning pressed the timer switch on her mobile phone. "The death rate is not particularly fast, probably due to the dose, but...it's not bad."
"Material collection" was a covert order directed at Lu Ning. It came from District 10. Issuer No. 112 issued an assassination list with a reward for seeking scarce organ sources, and ensured that a team would recover the body within three hours after the killing. , and there are even requirements for the location of organs that cannot be harmed.
Lu Ning could not see the specific list because he had not received it, but his name was probably on it. As long as he took a little inducement on this basis, an easy target would certainly attract the plots of many killers.
It's troublesome...
Lu Ning glanced at the corpse on the ground and turned through everything on him as usual. However, this time the person was obviously a lot more professional. There was no identification or communication method. He didn't carry anything except a silenced pistol and a serrated dagger. It seemed that someone had the consciousness to cut off the line.
After checking to no avail, Lu Ning stood up helplessly. At this moment, a thorny feeling appeared behind her.
"Um?"
When Lu Ning heard the sound, he turned around and fired. The bullet came out of the chamber, but hit a spark on an iron folding fan that opened instantly.
Standing behind was a petite woman wearing a black coat with moon patterns. She opened a dark gray metal folding fan in her right hand and held a tachi in her left hand.
"So it's not this person." Lu Ning pointed his pistol at the opponent. The distance between the two sides happened to be such that the opponent could not use melee weapons to attack.
"I feel like I've been discovered." The woman moved her fan slightly, revealing a pretty face. Her words had a slightly uncoordinated accent, as if they were not her native language.
"This place is not suitable for you to rush in." Lu Ning motioned to the dining table between the two of them, "Did you also receive the mission to come and kill me tonight?"
"Huh? So you are also a member of that website?" The woman stood still and said, "What kind of high school student lives alone? That website also engages in fraud?"
The other party is really not afraid of the gun in her hand.
"In that case, you should also understand the difficulty of this mission, right?"
"Ah, but if you go back without doing anything, you will still get scolded. It's better to work hard here." The corner of the woman's mouth curled up slightly, "How about I give it a try? Little girl..."
There were two soft sounds, accompanied by sparks from the muzzle. The woman had already expected it. She bent her body slightly and raised her fan to block. She flipped the sword upwards and picked up the table. At the same time, she moved quickly laterally and swept across the table. !
The man and the table were cut open with a knife, and blood spilled out, but not much fell in the direction of the woman due to the obstruction of the table.
"It feels...wrong."
The woman frowned slightly, and when the table fell, she realized that the body of the unlucky killer had just been chopped open by her, and Lu Ning had disappeared!
For a moment, there was a feeling behind him.
Even though she reacted based on experience, she still couldn't dodge the sword's close-fitting bullet. Her coat and the clothes underneath were instantly cut open, leaving a wound several centimeters long.
"poison."
Lu Ning only said one word, and the woman stopped preparing to fight back, jumped a step away, reached out and touched the wound, and the blood flowing out was still red.
"You lied to me!"
"Just stopping for a moment, what's your number?"
"678...Why should I tell you this?" the woman replied subconsciously, then stared, "Do you have super powers? Why did you suddenly disappear from my eyes!"
"Are you a crow?"
Lu Ning did not answer her question, but asked a sentence that tourists often ask among themselves.
Sure enough, the woman was stunned for a moment and twitched the corner of her mouth: "You too?"
It took Jumonji Yana some time to accept that the assassination target was a tourist.
It also took Lu Ning a little time to figure out what kind of situation Jumonmon Yena was.
There really are people who follow the rules and complete the tasks step by step. Over the past week, the person in front of me has really been working hard to complete tasks to accumulate points and level up, without even paying attention to the hidden information behind the task prompts.
"You...are on a mission to avoid death?"
"Isn't it just to put yourself in danger and then escape? I'm almost done."
Lu Ning suddenly found that he seemed to be in a corner for some reason.
"Sacrificial Club?"
"I searched online and went there. I found three places, all of which were traps. I completed a few of the first missions by the way."
"Then the serial murderer's mission..."
Jumonmon Yana's face turned bitter.
"I've collected several bounties and completed them, but they still don't count as completed! This is the only mission I have no clue about!"
Lu Ning almost wanted to hold her forehead.
In the promotion test, she cooperated with a group of teammates who made eye contact, and then met a group of calculating teams in this scene. She almost forgot that there were still some tourists who did not have such strong analytical and judgment skills, and the scene was also different. It may leave these players desperate.
Just like Jumonmon Yana, who is obsessed with progress, I am afraid that in some aspects, she is faster than someone like her who is investigating carefully.
"Your name is Lu Ning? Sorry, I don't know many tourists, so I don't know you... Since you are a tourist, I will give up this mission. Although I am not very good at making friends, I am not prepared to fight with other tourists. Enemy." Jumonmonji Ye Nai was open-minded and soon stopped worrying about that.
"Well...how about doing me a favor?"
Lu Ning found out that Jumonji's giving up was not attributed to avoiding death, and her mood was a bit subtle. But when the other party wanted to leave, she was still prepared to try to talk.
"Say, if you can do it."
"It's no trouble, just don't give up on the mission."
"You want me to chop you here?" Jumonji looked at her with confusion.
"No, the task receiving mode on that website is that unless the previous batch fails, no new executor can receive it. So as long as you are stuck on the task, I will not have more people coming to hunt you down, and I will It will save you a lot of trouble.”
"It's easy to say." Jumonji said cheerfully, "Then just consider it an apology, and I will keep it until the deadline. But it's probably not safe for you to do this. It's best to change places or identities quickly. By the way, what you just said Is it a supernatural ability? In this scene?”
"Well, yes, you can get it here, but it probably can't be copied."
"That's great news! I'm afraid that the serial killer mission requires the target to have super powers. I'm worried about that! Thanks, Lu Ning!"
Jumonji jumped open the sliding door and left quickly from the yard. Judging from the speed of her departure, the wound did not affect her actions much. Fortunately, the other party was not hostile to tourists, so a fierce battle was avoided.
Lu Ning looked at the messy restaurant and the bodies on the ground.
"It doesn't feel right" - this word that Jumonji blurted out just now also gave her a better understanding of experienced warriors. At least the next time such a replacement should be more subtle.
Lu Ning turned around and flipped through the phone book and found the number of the Mortuary Bureau. This department was responsible for cleaning up corpses in Sin City. Lu Ning hung up the phone and asked them to come over and clean up the house. She took her backpack, money and necessary things and left the villa area overnight.
Tomorrow is Sunday, and she still has one day to investigate the clues in her hands. For now, Dr.D’s clues should be put aside for now. Tomorrow, I’m going to the Ninth District Pedestrian Street to look for news about the White Butterfly Killer. In addition, Jiangshanluo’s aerobics class is at 9 o’clock tomorrow morning. If everything goes well, I can exchange a lot with him. information.
And a safe place to spend the night is exactly what Lu Ning needs most. In Sin City, there is no place where it is easier to hide a person than in the Seventh District.
