Outside Tan Yi North Station, Avinash and his subordinates were waiting for the change on a safe high ground. Everyone looked at the broken vault of the station without saying a word.
They all heard Schmidt's screams, one after another, echoing in the dark corridor, from begging for mercy, to cursing, then to confession, and finally slowly weakened.
Some people in the mercury needles outside have begun to cover their faces and cry, for the poor old police inspector and for their helplessness; some people clasped their hands and prayed for Schmidt in a low voice; more people were silent and looked away, Waiting for the night to be over.
The medical team bandaged Avinash's wound. Since the bullet directly penetrated the flesh and blood and did not explode, his injury was not particularly serious. He only needed to go to the underground hospital of Tanyi Reserve Base after dawn. You no longer have to worry about wounds.
About a quarter of an hour later, the three mercury needles that had rushed to Cleyer's Farm came back.
"Why are you back...I didn't ask you to--"
"Victoria is not at Cleyer Farm!" one of them replied, "We searched the farm inside and outside, but there was no trace of her at all... By the way, Viscount Richie also——"
"Avinash!" Victoria's voice came from not far away.
Avinash raised his head and saw Victoria's team crossing the roofs and heading towards him.
That's really not the direction Cleyer Farm is headed.
Victoria's face was filled with a smile of some kind of victory, as if she had just accomplished some feat. Avinash was a little disgusted by this expression, especially at this moment.
"...What's wrong?" Victoria stopped next to Avinash. After seeing his injured arm and the ruined vault in the distance, Victoria realized something, "You are facing 'it' Have you fought before?"
Avinash didn't answer.
Victoria looked around, "Where's Inspector Schmidt? Why don't you see anyone else?"
She saw the tears on the faces of other mercury needles and realized something was possible.
"Where is he now?"
"In the station," Avinash replied. "The assassin may be inside now."
Victoria was stunned, and the smile on her face gradually faded, "...Then why are you all outside?"
Avinash stood up, "We got very clear combat images, about the assassin, it -"
Before he finished speaking, Victoria's team was already rushing towards the station.
The other mercury needles looked at Avinash, "Sir, should we also..."
"Leave the rest to them." Avinash stood up and said to the man nearby, "You go and deal with the next things with Victoria, and then report the progress to me; the rest of the people will go The police station is on standby, I am going to the reserve base now and will come over to meet you in a moment."
…
If there was anything tonight that really exceeded Avinash's expectations, it was probably only one thing:
Schmidt is still alive.
Although the old police inspector suffered unimaginable cruelty, he was still alive when Victoria arrived with people - the assassin did not cut off Schmidt's head as it predicted, it All that was left was bloodstains and mutilated limbs on the ground, and the life of the old police inspector.
Why would the assassin do this?
One guess is relatively charitable: the assassin suddenly lost interest in killing Schmidt.
Another guess is more logical: Today was not the day the assassin decided to kill Schmidt, so he didn't do it.
Victoria immediately sent the old man to the hospital for rescue, but she also understood that it was hard to say whether the rescue at this moment was really saving the old man's life, or simply prolonging his pain.
She didn't want to think about it.
From the people sent by Avinash, Victoria had a preliminary understanding of everything that happened tonight. As she listened, she immediately realized what Avinash was really doing tonight, and a surge of anger rose in her heart.
After Schmidt was pushed into the operating room, she and several colleagues slept directly in the hospital for a few hours.
They left the hospital in the early morning, and the sun on November 2 was rising slowly from the east.
Everyone realized that there was a high probability of an extremely difficult battle tonight, but no one talked about it. Recalling the tragic situation of Schmidt last night, some people were secretly frightened and felt pity, while others were completely immersed in it. In a state of excitement, the desire to fight in their blood was suddenly awakened, and they couldn't wait for it to get dark in the next second.
Victoria asked the main force of tonight's battle to go back to the apartment to rest, while she took the remaining people back to the police station to find Avinash.
…
Avinash in the police station has been waiting for her for a long time.
As soon as they met, Avinash said, "Where did you take Rishi?"
"It's an absolutely safe place, so you don't have to worry about it." Victoria replied calmly.
Avinash felt the subtle change in the other party's attitude, but he didn't care, "Thank you, I still need you to send this image back to ahgas's data analysis center as soon as possible——"
"Let me see first and then talk." Victoria interrupted him again.
Everyone turned off the lights in the conference room, and Victoria chose a seat far away from Avinash and sat down.
When last night's battle footage appeared on the screen, one of Avinash's subordinates also spoke: "After preliminary analysis of the footage last night, we estimate that the assassin's height is between 2.12 and 2.23 meters, and his weight is around 80 to 85kg. Of course, the specific data still needs to be analyzed at the scene; the assassin is left-handed, and most of his power movements are completed with his left hand. At the same time, his-"
"Quiet."
Victoria stared at the assassin on the screen, while Avinash kept studying her expression.
Obviously, Victoria was very interested in this image. Her eyes have not left the screen since just now, and her body is leaning forward slightly.
However, just ten seconds passed, and Victoria's expression slowly changed from the initial concentration to confusion.
Her brows were furrowed and her eyes were full of disbelief. Then, a moment of "epiphany" flashed between her brows. She fell back on the chair and pressed her forehead with her right hand, as if she had been hit by something. a bigger problem.
The video was not long. When the lights in the conference room came back on, Avinash heard her take a deep breath. This reaction puzzled Avinash.
He clasped his fingers together, placed them in front of him, and whispered: "What do you think? Such a picture should be enough for the base to analyze the movements."
Victoria didn't answer immediately. She covered her eyes with both hands and pressed them gently.
"...What kind of 'assassin' is this?" She stared at the screen. "This is clearly 'Doctor Jiashe'."
