In the evening, the sky was dark in the downtown area, and the afterglow of the setting sun left only dim light in the sky, which was not enough to illuminate the streets.
Therefore, the task of lighting fell on the street lamps on both sides and various shop signs.
On the road where cans and flyers are discarded everywhere, people in strange clothes come and go, some in groups of three or five, some walking alone.
The loud electronic music in the shops, the horns of passing vehicles, and people talking loudly or quietly make the streets noisy and deafening.
Tianyang, wearing a cloak, walked out of a dim alley, scared away a few stray wolves, cats and dogs, passed by a few unemployed vagrants squatting at the entrance of the alley with gloomy faces, and entered the street.
Above the boy’s head is a huge sign full of ambiguous hints. Under the flashing neon lights, it desperately outputs certain associations to passers-by.
In addition, attracted by the girls nearby who were dressed in flashy and even revealing clothes, men passing by would occasionally follow these girls into dim alleys or into houses with flashing cold lights.
Suddenly, there were screams and curses from the front, and a figure rushed across the street quickly, and gunshots were heard, startling passers-by.
But soon, the streets returned to normal and everyone had forgotten what had just happened.
People in the downtown area are very forgetful.
Tianyang walked along the street, familiar with the route, and arrived at the assembly warehouse.
This time, he came very early.
Except Liu Guang, no one else has arrived yet.
Candles were lit in the warehouse, and a streamer was sitting on a wooden box, holding a plate full of food and a goblet filled with fine wine next to it.
He is enjoying his dinner.
"You're here really early."
Seeing Tianyang, Liuguang jumped off the wooden box and picked up the wine glass: "Would you like a drink? I just poured it, and I haven't drunk it yet."
Tianyang shook his head. He kept in mind the character of Ghost Face and didn't say much, or even make any unnecessary movements. He was restrained in his emotions and aura, like a shadow, throwing himself into an empty and dark corner.
Liuguang shrugged, didn't force it, and continued to finish his dinner.
"Ghost Face, where are you from? Well, the only information I got was your photo and a brief comment like 'cold and aloof'."
Liuguang said, taking a sip of wine: "It tastes pretty good. As far as the Lower City is concerned, this should be the best wine I can get."
In the dark corner, Tianyang lowered his eyes so that Liu Guang couldn't see his expression clearly.
The boy let his thoughts fly.
Liuguang didn’t know any information about Guimian, so I was able to sneak in easily without arousing his suspicion.
But it's also possible that he was testing me.
Tianyang made a decision quickly. He silently formed a Mist Ghost Blade in his cloak and used it to slash the ground.
Although the text was written backwards, Liuguang still read it easily: "I don't want to talk about the past?"
"Yes, I understand. People like us always have some memories in the past that we don't want to mention."
Liuguang tapped himself on the head gently: "Forgive me for asking such a stupid question."
"What's the problem? Can I hear it?"
Someone walked in from outside. It was Jianfeng. This casual man did not carry a wine jug today.
His sword was still on his shoulder, his clothes were still loose, his eyes were sleepy as if he had just woken up, and he was holding the sword in one hand and touching his chin with the other.
Liuguang chuckled and replied, "Nothing. I asked about Ghost Face's past, but he didn't want to talk about it."
"Ghost Face is here? Why didn't I sense him? I thought I was the first to arrive."
It was only with Liuguang's reminder that Jianfeng discovered Tianyang in the corner.
"You're really here! How did you do that? I can't sense your presence at all. How scary! You must be a natural assassin."
Jianfeng was very noisy, and he was used to it. He had no awareness of disturbing others, so he walked towards Tianyang naturally.
Then he was stopped by a long and narrow knife tip.
"What a cold fellow."
Jianfeng shook his head, stepped back, and sat down in a window seat.
Tieshi and Hei Tong arrived one after another, and at this time, Liuguang had finished his dinner. He simply cleaned up the tableware, drank the remaining wine, threw all the things into the trash can behind the warehouse, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and then took out a few electronic boards and handed them to Tianyang and the other three.
"Shadow will have a big move tonight."
Liuguang did not hide anything or beat around the bush and just said it directly.
Big move
There seemed to be a flash of lightning in Tianyang's eyes behind the mask.
Is the Shadow finally going to take action against other organizations
Should we declare war on one of them, or just clear out the Red Chimney and the Hunger Ball
If it were me, I would declare war on both sides at the same time. If I don’t have this kind of courage, how can I be qualified to dominate the underground world.
In addition, even if only one side is chosen to declare war, there is no guarantee that the other side will not choose to support the attacked party in order to protect itself.
This would be no different from declaring war on both sides at the same time.
No wonder Wuying chose this time to take action. Such a big scene, not to mention Ms. Shadow.
I'm afraid that other shadow deacons will also be present.
It seems that Wuying was quite restrained and only chose Lady Shadow to attack. I think they have done a detailed investigation and know that Lady Shadow is easier to kill.
Does Wuying want to use this action to officially enter the underground stage of Skyfort
wrong.
This is not in line with Wuying's style. I guess Liuguang will probably mislead people about this matter and make them speculate about the Red Chimney or the Hunger Ball.
But I have already laid the groundwork, Shadow may already know the existence of the 'Shadowless' organization.
It doesn't matter if you don't know. According to my "script", these two organizations are bound to have some intersection, and in the near future!
Confidence comes from adequate preparation, hmm.
Although Ghost Face seemed silent and indifferent on the surface, his heart was filled with emotion. Liuguang continued, "Our official hunting time will be after Shadow's operation is over."
"At that time, Lady Shadow's alert will be at its lowest, and it will also be the moment when we are most likely to succeed."
"At that time, Hei Tong will set up the illusion and create an environment that is favorable to us."
"Iron Lion will be in charge of the main attack, and Sword Wind will assist. As for Ghost Face, I need you to harass and interrupt Lady Shadow's elemental abilities. Also, be prepared for any possible support."
"And until then, Ghostface, I need you to keep an eye on Lady Shadow so she doesn't change her route."
Tianyang nodded slightly and thought to himself, Wuying is really powerful. He actually knows Ms. Shadow's route of movement.
"The current location of Lady Shadow and related information are already on your electronic board."
Tianyang took a look and was surprised that Lady Shadow was actually...
"If there is no problem, Ghost Face, you can move now."
As soon as Liuguang finished speaking, Tianyang left the corner. He walked past Tieshi and the others normally, without deliberately showing off himself. He walked out of the warehouse in a normal way and went to the electronic board.
The location provided.
"Ghost Face has a secret."
After Tianyang left, Liuguang said with a smile: "I even suspect that he is not the original Ghost Face."
Tieshi seemed to have met a kindred spirit, and said loudly, "I have suspected this for a long time. This guy has been so secretive for so long, and he still refuses to take off his mask!"
"There must be something wrong with him."
"He can't join the hunt tonight."
"that."
Hei Tong raised his hands timidly and said, "Mr. Ghost Face helped me several times in the secret realm. If he is not one of us, why would he help me?"
Jianfeng touched his chin and said, "I have worked with Guimian before. He is a very capable person. Although he is very cold, he has no hostility towards me..."
Tieshi said impatiently: "You two want to say that Liuguang and I guessed wrong?"
Liuguang quickly tried to smooth things over: "Tieshi, don't get excited. I'm just suspicious. There's nothing I can do. Compared to other people, the information sent to me by the higher-ups about 'Ghost Face' is not much."
"Such situations often mean that the member's value is limited, so the organization believes that he is not important and does not need to be excessively investigated."
"But such a person was able to survive in the secret realm, so I am a little suspicious."
"It just so happens that I can observe Ghost Face during this operation tonight. However, even if he is a substitute, it's not a big problem."
"As long as he does not do anything that harms the organization, we do not refuse to recruit strong people to join us."
Tieshi sneered and said, "I'm afraid that what we absorbed is not a strong man, but a time bomb."
Liuguang did not continue the discussion: "Anyway, let's talk about it after tonight. Let's prepare well."
... ... ...
After leaving the warehouse, Tianyang removed the fog ghost amulet in an empty corner, opened the crack door, and returned to the apartment in the upper city.
When he reappeared, he had already shown his true appearance, but in disguise.
He was wearing the common work clothes in the downtown area, which were patched and stained with oil.
Tianyang's hair has turned jet black. This was part of his preparations for tonight, a dye he bought not long ago.
He put on his hat again and his goggles to make himself look like a teenager working in a downtown factory.
He hadn't had dinner yet, so he bought a fast food meal when he passed by a restaurant.
Finally, Tianyang came to the address provided on the electronic board, a bar that provided special services.
At the door of this bar named "Yingse", there are many bright and attractive girls standing. Their enthusiasm can melt even the coldest person.
Tianyang ate fast food silently and had some thoughts in his mind.
Liuguang, are you starting to doubt yourself
Is Lady Shadow the owner of this bar? This bar, which offers special services, has been open in the downtown area for a long time.
Tianyang still remembers that one time when he was passing by with his mother, he looked at those women out of curiosity, and was pulled away by his mother by the ear.
In a place like this, how could Ghostface, dressed like that, enter the bar without attracting attention and stare at his target
Liuguang deliberately gave himself a difficult problem in order to verify a certain idea.
While eating cheap fast food, Tianyang had made a decision.
Tonight, Lady Shadow must not die by her own hands. At least, not directly by her own hands.
If Ghost Face is powerful enough to kill a Level 6 Elemental Heart, then unless Liuguang is blind, he will definitely become suspicious!
PS: This month's monthly ticket is really bad. I hope there will be support from any big guys in the future
