Hunting Game [Interstellar]

Chapter 33 [Return of the ghost house]

The girl was tall and slender, wearing a pure black night combat uniform like the other assassins, and holding a lightsaber.She didn't wear a mask, but covered her mouth and nose with a black veil, revealing a pair of black and cold eyes, quietly watching Sissy Tranze, who was protected behind by a female bodyguard.

Su Shichuan recognized her voice, and also recognized her eyes.

I haven't seen her in three months, not to mention that this little girl has been reborn, and her aura is completely different from that at the garrison base that day.

Opposite her, Cisse's personal bodyguard pulled out a metal wire from his waist, wrapped it around a few times with his left hand, and then tightened it suddenly.Under the dim light, the piece of metal wire was thin and sharp, glowing with a faint blue light, and one could tell at a glance that the deadly poison had been cured in advance.

With the completion of the pre-battle action, Su Shichuan noticed a detail. The female bodyguard only wore cut-resistant gloves on her left hand to control strangling weapons, while her right hand was naked. It seemed unintentional, but it was done in advance. Ready, it hangs impartially on the slightly raised right leg side of the skirt - there should be a tactical leg bag hidden there.

He is a close-combat killer, and he is left-handed, Su Shichuan quickly made a judgment.

As the crown prince, Cisse must be someone who can be carried close to him by someone who is not a mediocre person. This woman was cut off halfway, but she didn't show any panic at all, and she looked at the assassin with a little bit of "wait and see what happens, don't want to make chaos" It means that it is not so much a sneak attack, but more like being fully prepared and waiting for the other party to show up!

This idea broke into his brain for no reason, Su Shichuan couldn't help being slightly stunned, and suddenly remembered something that he had explained to Aning before.

——At the garrison base that day, they all saw that Ji Yue was a rookie but had extraordinary skills.Aning investigated her background privately, and after the report came up, he was the one who specifically told him to thoroughly investigate the suburban church that adopted the girl.

Could it be that Aning did find out the clues, so the bodyguards around Cisse were already prepared for this?

But if that's the case...

Su Shichuan's fingers holding the lightsaber were unconsciously clenched, and the meridians on the back of his hand burst out with force, and his knuckles bled and turned white.

Then this gold-plated hall is a cage with its doors open, and the crown prince who has not been escorted out for a long time is the bait to lure the enemy into the bait!

No wonder!Su Xingchuan's mind became clear, and what he thought was weird before was instantly explained—no wonder Xifa acted so calmly in the face of his father and elder brother who might encounter unexpected events when the assassin appeared, and only said "they have imperial guards "Protect" and wanted to keep him, now it seems that he probably already knew what would happen tonight!

If that's the case, it's really too troublesome...

In just a few seconds while he was fascinated by the analysis, the two confronting each other not far away had already fought.

Although Ji Yue is young, every attack is decisive and sharp, and his attacks are very sturdy.Compared with her, the female bodyguard in a dress is like a very slippery fish, with an erratic figure and tricky movements, controlling the metal filament in her hand within the slightest. She never confronts directly, but Skillfully defuse Ji Yue's storm-like offensive, and then detour back behind her, catching her off guard.

At this moment, several men in black turned up to the main stage.With a flick of Jiyue's long sword, he blocked the strangling poisonous thread, and commanded sharply: "Kill Xi Sai!"

No matter how skillful the female bodyguard was, she couldn't resist the opponent's attack.Su Shichuan was eager to confirm the guess in his heart, and he raised his sword and joined the battle without hesitation.

The two lightsabers were biting fiercely, and the swords were full of electric current. Su Shichuan stood in front of the female bodyguard, took the frontal blow for her, and said without turning his head: "You go to protect the crown prince, and she will leave it to me!"

The voice fell, and there were two sounds of "咻咻" in the distance, and the hidden weapon was released.

Su Shichuan was extremely sensitive to this sound, and immediately looked towards the source of the sound.

Two bright arcs of light shot from the second floor to the atrium. Su Shichuan narrowed his eyes and almost caught the flashing shadow in the shadowed corridor.

"Don't move around." Cang Xingyun's voice came from the headset, agitating the eardrums, he said, "Concealed weapons are poisonous, my hands are very accurate, but I can't guarantee that I won't be hit by you."

There are people around, Su Shichuan is inconvenient to speak, there is no second choice right now, he has to do his best to play the imperial major general who has dedicated himself to the crown prince.Su Shichuan gave up blocking the approaching lightsaber, twisted his back and tapped the ground, and in an instant came to Sisai, the lightsaber in his hand flicked left and right, and at the last moment, cut off two surprise flying flying arrows. knife.

The next moment, Ji Yue was already close, and the bright blue lightsaber rubbed against Su Shichuan's left shoulder, stabbing at Crown Prince Cisse who was behind him.

The scorching high temperature melted the clothing and burned the flesh. Su Shichuan's shoulders were bleeding profusely, and his eyebrows were tightened. He clasped Jiyue's sword-holding wrist with his bare hands, and groped for the joint with his thumb and pressed it forcefully.All of a sudden, Ji Yue felt that his whole arm was sore and numb, and the lightsaber was almost out of his hand.However, before she could react, Su Shichuan had already leaned forward and reminded with a voice that only each other could hear: "You shouldn't come."

Ji Yue was stunned when she heard the words, and couldn't help but slow down her attack.Su Shichuan grasped her dazed kung fu, and kicked his knees decisively into the opponent's abdomen with one side of his body.With such force and force, Ji Yue's eyes turned black from the pain, she staggered a few steps back, bowed and spit out a mouthful of black blood.Su Shichuan didn't give her any room to breathe, he followed her body like a shadow, and kicked her off the main stage.

Finally distanced himself from the people behind him, Su Shichuan jumped down, held down the headset and said, "Xingyun, listen to me. This is very strange tonight. I suspect it is a trap. I suggest retreating immediately." After finishing speaking, the communication channel was still quiet, only the occasional faint sound of electric current showed that the call was not interrupted.Su Shichuan looked up to the second floor of the gold-plated hall, and Cang Xingyun was obviously no longer there.

Jiyue stood up in embarrassment, her chest heaving violently. Facing Su Shichuan, she clenched the handle of the lightsaber with both hands, and repositioned her standing posture: "You have already seen that I have a problem?" She stared at Su Shichuan without blinking. Chuan's eyes were dark and gloomy, "That's why you dismissed me from the special warfare major?"

"I still say the same thing." Su Shichuan said calmly, "Really excellent agents often know how to hide their strength. I don't want you, just because you are too eager for quick success."

"Really?" Ji Yue sneered, "Get out of the way, or I'll kill you!"

"Why did you assassinate the Crown Prince?" Su Shichuan said, "Who are you working for?"

"For myself!" After the words were closed, Ji Yue Yizheng made a bold move with his sword.

Su Shichuan took the attack calmly, unceremoniously lowered the blade head-on, and looked into Ji Yue's eyes through the hot arc light: "Listen to the teacher, and go!"

At the same time, the female bodyguard on the main stage captured the last man in black alive, pierced his shoulder blade with a lightsaber, and nailed him to the ground.The part pierced by the lightsaber was blackened and carbonized in an instant, but it was not fatal. The man hissed and screamed in pain, unable to move his body, and could only endure the pain of being scorched alive bit by bit.

The female bodyguard shook off the blood beads hanging on the wire, turned around and was about to return to Cisse.

It was also at this time that a ghostly figure silently hung from the dome of the hall.

Not far from the main stage, Ji Yue raised his eyelashes slightly, and looked behind Su Shichuan's face.The moment his eyes were misaligned, Su Shichuan instantly realized that something was going to happen in the future. He maintained the posture of touching her lightsaber and looked back——the hanging assassin had completely loosened the steel wire. He reached for his waist and took out a He held a unique diamond-shaped concealed weapon, and with the other hand clenched the dagger behind his back, and before making the move, he cast an inexplicable look in the direction of Su Shichuan.

"Thank you for the reminder," Cang Xingyun's voice sounded in the communication channel, "Leave as soon as you get it."

After the words were lost, the assassin threw out the concealed weapon in an orderly manner, and Sissy Tranze, who was directly below him, froze immediately, a streak of black blood spilled out of his forehead, and slowly sank into the edge of the metal mask.Only then did the female bodyguard raise her head belatedly, and saw a section of steel wire swaying slightly. The assassin who was supposed to be hanging there disappeared, and a black shadow had just climbed over the fence of the corridor on the second floor. Hide into the lounge directly opposite.

"Finally found it..." She slowly raised the corners of her mouth, and two seconds later her voice suddenly increased, "His Royal Highness was assassinated!"

"—From now on, shoot and kill the invading assassins, and leave no one alive!"

Su Shichuan watched the crown prince fall in a daze, and the lingering sense of weirdness in his heart was even stronger.After a while, he looked at Ji Yue in front of him again, loosened his five fingers that were originally clasped on her wrist, and said in a low voice, "Go quickly."

Ji Yue didn't expect that the other party would let her go so easily. She stared into Su Xingchuan's eyes with an extremely complicated expression, then hastily withdrew her lightsaber and ran away.

If all this was premeditated, and Su Shichuan turned to look at the chaotic main stage, then everything has just begun.

Xisai's body was surrounded by the rushing emergency personnel. The female bodyguard did not stay with the owner, but jumped off the main stage and walked towards Su Shichuan.She looked down at the wound on Su Shichuan's shoulder, and said in a very polite voice: "Major General Su has worked hard, and the rest will be handled by the military. You can rest temporarily and let the medical soldiers take care of it for you. Wound."

"His Royal Highness..." Su Shichuan looked at the busy emergency personnel on the main stage.

Other people here may not know it, but he is very clear about the identity of the assassin who shot. Cang Xingyun's hidden weapon is quenched with shark blood. If there is not enough shark oil right now, Xi Sai will definitely die!It's just - he looked at the woman in front of him again, why wasn't she in a hurry?

"Don't worry," the female bodyguard said with a smile, "His Royal Highness is safe and sound, that's just a substitute."

Su Shichuan was stunned, and on the surface pretended to be a false alarm and let out a sigh of relief: "You all knew that there would be an assassination operation tonight?"

"Speaking of which, I have to thank you." The female bodyguard said, "Anyway, the previous invitation from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still counts. Please do not leave the gilded hall and wait for the summoning later." She opened her sleeves to check the time, and Su passed away. Chuan noticed that her communicator was worn on her right wrist.

"I still have things to deal with, so I'll excuse you first." She bowed to Su Shichuan, turned around and returned to the main stage, while pressing the headset.

Su Shichuan heard her say: "I marked a female assassin, the coordinates have been shared, and I told the reinforcements of the military department that Your Highness wants to catch her alive."

At this time, it was only ten minutes before the assassin broke into the gilded hall, and it was confirmed that the crown prince was dead. The surviving assassin no longer wanted to fight, and escaped from the hall through the broken window.

Su Shichuan was stunned by the order given by the female bodyguard for half a second, and a bone-chilling chill could not help creeping up his spine.When the other party was far away, he put away his lightsaber and turned around and went straight to the side door of the hall. At the same time, he pressed the headset button and connected seventeen, and said anxiously: "The military department has now obtained an encrypted message, which should be the coordinates returned by the tracker. one time."

"Yes." Seventeen replied immediately.

"Have you guys gone back?" Su Shichuan asked.

"Still on the way." Seventeen spoke quickly, and the communication channel kept ringing with keyboard tapping, "Master, how is the situation on your side?"

Su Shichuan: "It's not very good. I guess tonight's banquet was set up by Cisse. They knew that someone would be assassinated. The emperor and others didn't come to the scene at all, and they all used substitutes. Now there is an important assassin among the assassins." The person was planted with a tracker, and the military may wait until she joins up with the others before taking all of them."

Shi Qi was startled, fearing that his master would be caught in an accident by a deep-sea fish pit, he said anxiously: "Then do you want me to—"

Before he finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by Su Shichuan.Su Shichuan said: "You need it, you hurry up and send the doctor back to the theater, and then monitor the news network inside the military department for me, and report back as soon as there is any situation."

"Understood, then be careful yourself." Seventeen said, "I'm still looking into it. Their channel encryption method is a bit complicated and it will take time."

Su Shichuan: "It's okay, you decipher slowly."

After finishing the last sentence, Su Shichuan maintained the single connection with Seventeen, temporarily blocked his voice from him, then turned to Cang Xingyun and asked, "Xingyun, where are you?"

The rose garden surrounding the gilded hall was empty, and the surroundings were so quiet that even half of the imperial guards could not be seen.Su Shichuan felt that it was too strange. This kind of clearing behavior was very abnormal, which usually meant that the military might use a lethal attack, but this is the imperial court of the Double Moon Palace after all. Will it really do that?

Suddenly, the communicator on the wrist vibrated.

Su Shichuan was eager to find Cang Xingyun, originally he didn't want to distract his attention at this time, but considering the special situation, those who can be found right now should have nothing to do.

Sure enough, Su Shichuan turned on the light screen and noticed that the source of the news was displayed as "Xifa", and the content was: [Teacher, if you are still in the Gilded Hall, please stay inside and don't come out. 】

Su Shichuan had a faint guess in his heart, and started to reply: 【What is the arrangement for tonight? 】

Xifa: 【About a month ago, the second brother got a message that someone planned to sneak into the Double Moon Palace on the night of National Day to carry out an assassination operation.He planned to use this opportunity to capture the mastermind alive, so he discussed with his father and decided that the dinner party would be held as scheduled, but heavy guards were arranged around the Double Moon Hall.You saw the crow before, but in fact, the military department closed the example protective shield over the Temple of Double Moons to facilitate the intervention of the mecha air force. 】

Su Shichuan raised his head and looked at the star-studded night sky above him, and suddenly understood everything—he was the one who caused all this, and Aning was from Xisai, so Xisai had the channel to know the news that Jiyue attacked tonight .In the last life, after Cisse lured him to teach in the military academy, this life was affected by this, and this time was greatly advanced.

Another message came, and Xifa said: [Now they have adjusted the range of the protective shield, completely isolating the southeast area of ​​the Double Moon Hall, ensuring that no one can come out alive, and the Gilded Hall is the only bombing vacuum there. 】

Su Shichuan: [Understood, don't worry, the teacher is fine. 】

At this time, the feedback of encrypted information came, Seventeen said: "I found the signal band returned by the tracker, and I have connected to your communicator."

"Okay." Su Shichuan said, "I'll contact you later."

After speaking, he ended the call and clicked on the receiving address sent by Seventeen - the floor plan of the entire Shuangyue Temple unfolded on the light screen, and the red dot representing the tracking target kept moving.

Su Shichuan checked the coordinates to find out the direction, and found that Jiyue was approaching the east gate.After confirming the position, he released the lightsaber again. Before he moved, he saw the flowers not far away swaying slightly, Cang Xingyun appeared from the dark place, and quietly blocked Su Shichuan.

"I have been looking for you." Su Shichuan said.

"You're too persistent." Cang Xingyun said, "I'm just an assassin, and I'm used to being alone. What I do is to collect money and drink blood. I have no feelings or heart. Personal allegiance. Su Shichuan, I admit that you are special, but unfortunately, if you choose me, it means that you have chosen the wrong partner."

This is correct, Cang Xingyun is rebellious by nature, he is an unfamiliar wolf, the reason why he has stayed until now is entirely because of the marked bomb in his body.

Su Xingchuan knew very well that he didn't want to waste time arguing here. Instead of responding to Cang Xingyun's words, he raised his wrist to show him the tracking coordinates on the light screen, and said indifferently: "Ji Yue is talking to Xi Sai's bodyguard. During the fight, the opponent planted a tracking device, and I only came to you because of this."

Cang Xingyun suddenly froze.

Su Xingchuan curled his lips slightly sarcastically, and said with a sneer: "Don't you like to owe favors to others, how do you plan to pay back?"

Cang Xingyun was noncommittal, and after a long silence, he said: "I will pay it back."

"Also." Su Xingchuan said, "In order to eliminate the assassins tonight, the military department has completely isolated the southeast area of ​​the Double Moon Hall. You can't go anywhere, and you can only wait to be captured alive." , Su Shichuan paused for a while, walked up to Cang Xingyun, stared at the eyes hidden behind the mask expressionlessly, and said calmly, "I am standing here now, whether to cooperate or not, I will give the initiative to you." Here you go, you choose."

"However, we have agreed on some things in advance. This time, you asked for me. Once we reach a cooperation, the nature of our relationship will completely change. Xingyun, what I like is your ability and your background without camp. What I originally wanted to give you was absolutely fair and respectful cooperation, but unfortunately, you failed my trust."

"Now that opportunity is gone. I am not a saint who doesn't care about gains and losses. On the contrary, I am very greedy. What I want is the allegiance for the rest of my life that you can't give."

"I can not pursue your unauthorized actions tonight, or I can assume that you will never betray me a second time in the future." Su Shichuan said with a half-smile, "This is an unequal condition. If you want me to help you , just use the rest of your own life in exchange, otherwise I don’t mind watching you all die here.”

"You..." Cang Xingyun hesitated.

Su Shichuan smiled, his attitude was very sincere, but this smile fell into Cang Xingyun's eyes, but it somehow carried a bit of sinister and cunning taste.

Su Xingchuan: "There is a kind of people in this world that cannot be easily provoked, otherwise it is easy to get burned, because they are difficult to tame, and they claim to have no feelings or hearts—" Cang Xingyun looked at him sideways, without speaking, Su Shichuan fell silent. After a few seconds, Fu said again, "I know you are such a person, but I also said that we are the same kind."

Cang Xingyun smiled.

"There is not much time left for you." Su Shichuan reminded lightly, "The reinforcements sent by the military department will arrive soon. To be honest, I don't understand the deployment of this sting operation, and I am not fully sure to take you all out. But what is certain is that for every minute you delay, my certainty will decrease by one point accordingly."

As the time approached zero, the silvery splendor of the two full moons receded above the night, and was gradually stained with a strange red color. Even the White Rose Garden under the night seemed to have been stained with blood.

"Okay." Finally, Cang Xingyu let go, "Deal."

Seeing that the cooperation was achieved, Su Shichuan couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

This step was so difficult, he clearly knew that Cang Xingyun had selfish intentions, but he still took the risk to let him enter the Shuangyue Palace tonight.Up to now, hijacking Dr. Yunus has completely become a cover for them to test each other—Cang Xingyun used this time to find out Su Shichuan's bottom line, and Su Shichuan used this time to find out Cang Xingyun's purpose, but Dao is one foot tall and devil is ten feet high. Su Shichuan didn't care so much about the assassin's purpose. He just wanted to keep him by his side and use him completely for his own use.

However, at this moment, there was a loud noise in the night sky, and several uniformly painted standard mechas faded from their protective colors, revealing their original shapes.

At the same time, a pitch-black humanoid mecha leapt forward, and the six light wings behind it spread out. The electronic eyes of the mecha's escaping fluorescence emitted an ominous blood color, looking like a demon crawling out of hell, condescending , staring at the world beneath his feet.

Su Shichuan was stunned when his eyes touched the black gold giant who had been late.

"Who is that?" Cang Xingyun narrowed his eyes, he could feel the chilling pressure carried by that special mech.

"Mecha ghost, I didn't expect Feng Chen to come back." Su Shichuan smiled indistinctly, then turned his head to look at Cang Xingyun, "I want to fight with him, Xingyun, today's favor is not you You can pay it off by selling yourself."
