In the restroom on the third floor of the club.
Soran stood in front of the mirror, adjusting his rabbit mask. The faucet was running with water, covering up the noise coming from outside the corridor.
The vent passages were dirty.
He had just gone in to conduct a reconnaissance, and his clothes were now covered in dust. Fortunately, Soran had been prepared and had prepared a new set of clothes in the bathroom in advance.
Thinking of the scene he had just seen when he was hiding in the vent, Soran felt more and more that something was not right.
[There is something wrong with Sheng Cheng.]
[what happens?]
Mist replied quickly from the other side of the optical computer.
Soran turned off the tap and typed quickly: [The target, Sheldon, was talking to Sheng Cheng in a blind spot of the surveillance camera. Although I didn't hear what they said, Sheldon was very respectful to Sheng Cheng, not like he was treating an ordinary member.]
[knew.]
The computer screen paused for a while before Mist sent a message with a brief and clear command: [Look for an opportunity to arrest Sheng Cheng.]
A line of words came into view.
Soran put away his computer, made some adjustments, and walked out of the bathroom.
On the way, he met three astronomical enthusiasts who were discussing astronomical galaxies fiercely. They were shouting and arguing as they walked, and their ears were red and their necks were thick. Soran slightly turned sideways to make way for them, and then walked to the blind spot where he had just bumped into Sheng Cheng and Sheldon.
It was already empty. Soran took the elevator down to the first floor without any surprise. It was still early, and Sheng Cheng should not be able to leave the club.
To be on the safe side, he needed to wait on the first floor, wait for Sheng Cheng to leave, and then arrest him without arousing suspicion.
It doesn’t matter if Sheng Cheng has already left the club, Mist will also have a solution.
Soran came out of the elevator calmly.
The first floor was still in chaos.
The men and women, wearing only a few pieces of cloth on their bodies, were dancing closely on the stage, attracting a lot of attention. Many people were cheering in the audience. Soran mixed into the crowd, clapping and whistling from time to time, as if he was immersed in this visual feast, but in fact his attention was always focused on the movement of the elevator.
Near dawn, the thin and frail civilian officer Sheng Cheng finally walked out of the elevator alone.
His facial muscles were relaxed and his expression was normal, just like any other ordinary officer who came to the club to relax after work.
Soran waited for the other party to leave the club for about a minute, observed the surroundings unnoticeably, and after making sure that no one was secretly protecting Sheng Cheng, he naturally left the crowd.
Soran's target was clear: Sheng Cheng who was heading to the parking lot.
At that time, Sheng Cheng had not noticed anything wrong.
It takes some walking to get to the club's parking lot, and part of the road is a blind spot for surveillance. When passing the forest nearby, Sheng Cheng cursed Sherdo in his heart, but as he was thinking about going back to work overtime, he couldn't help but quicken his pace.
Just now, he and Sheldon had been testing each other, but had gained nothing. Until now, Sheng Chengdu was still very unhappy.
The blind man Sheldon looks easy to bully, but he is actually very cunning and has a hidden ulterior motive.
Even if the other party has not betrayed the organization, he must deal with it carefully, otherwise it is very likely that Sheldon will get a lot of information from him without knowing it.
If you can just let the other person drink your blood, would you still need to go through so much trouble
Just as Sheng Cheng was complaining in his heart and was about to walk into the surveillance range, a stone suddenly shot towards him.
Sheng Cheng only had time to catch a glimpse of a shadow as fast as silver light. Before he could move, the computer screen on his wrist was shattered. There was a crackling sound and the screen went black and crashed in an instant.
The small stone was firmly embedded in the computer. It was obvious that it could not have been accidentally flicked over by some naughty kid.
Sheng Cheng subconsciously felt a chill down his spine and wanted to run away.
But before he could move, a sickle was stuck in the ground, blocking his way. The sharp blade was just a few millimeters away from his feet. If he had run a few more steps forward, the sickle would have sunk into his body without hesitation.
Shit, what the hell is going on?!
Sheng Cheng's legs went weak as he looked at the familiar sickle in front of him, and a name emerged in his mind.
Sauron.
Why did Qin Qi's adjutant appear here? And why did he suddenly target him
—He shouldn’t have been exposed.
This is also what the system huddled aside wanted to ask: How did Sauron find out that Sheng Cheng was an undercover
It wiped its reading glasses and put them on, looking at the scene in front of it blankly, and did not forget to tell Yaxiao about the progress here.
[Sauron is stopping Sheng Cheng now! ]
Sheng Cheng's face turned pale. Countless possibilities flashed through his mind in an instant. Before he could come to a conclusion, a cold male voice suddenly reached his ears:
"Don't try to escape. I won't kill you."
"Adjutant Soran, what do you mean?"
Sheng Cheng suppressed his anxiety, his face pale, as if he didn't know what happened. He said nervously, "Why did you suddenly attack me? Is there a new rule in the base that does not allow officers to attend entertainment venues privately?"
He looked at the man who suddenly appeared behind him. The other party was wearing a heavy gas mask. As expected, the person who stopped him was Qin Qi's adjutant, Sauron.
Sheng Cheng's heart sank.
Soran did not answer the other person's question, but walked to his side and motioned for him to raise his hand.
"What on earth are you trying to do?"
Sheng Cheng forced a smile and did not move for a long time.
Soran looked at the other person with cold eyes: "Don't talk nonsense."
Sheng Cheng looked at the other party's reaction, gritting his teeth in hatred, and raised his hand hesitantly.
"Adjutant Soran, I need an explanation from you about this matter."
Sauron still pretended not to hear, and quickly searched Sheng Cheng for the black gun. He then pulled out the sickle he had stuck in the ground and put it away. Then he looked at Sheng Cheng again and said, "Stretch out your hand."
Sheng Cheng took two steps back, but he knew that he could not beat Sauron at all, and resistance would only lead to death. He lowered his head, stretched out his hands, and let the other party handcuff his hands in front of him.
His mind was still spinning at full speed.
By now, Soran must have discovered that something was wrong with him. The only way for him to be exposed was in the club. So, were the matters of the club and the organization exposed
After seeing Sauron leading him away from surveillance and entering the grove, Sheng Cheng's eyes, which were covered by his hair, flashed a hint of darkness, and he understood in his heart.
There is a high probability that the organization can no longer hide it.
Was it Sheldon who informed on him
Or did the Sixth Base know from the beginning that there was something wrong with the club
No matter what, this matter must be told to the adults as soon as possible!
With his wrists locked in shackles, Sheng Cheng staggered behind Sauron. He suppressed the murderous intent in his heart, scratched his palms with his nails, and lowered his head to pretend to be disheartened.
His own fighting power was not high, and in everyone's eyes, he was weaker than Sauron, and no one would be wary of those who were weaker than themselves.
This was his chance.
Sheng Cheng lowered his head, and his sinister eyes calmed down. His parents had taught him to be patient and wait for the opportunity, and he must not lose his composure before escaping.
Soran took Sheng Cheng with him and kept a vigilant eye on the movements around him.
The hovercraft stopped deep in the woods. This place was not within the club's territory, so the club's security would naturally not appear nearby. Until the hovercraft was found safely, Soran paused, relaxed a little, released his hand that was holding Sheng Cheng, and took out the key from his trouser pocket.
It's now!!!
A hint of ecstasy flashed in Sheng Cheng's eyes, and he instantly pinched his nails into the flesh. Dark red blood flowed into the cracks between his nails like a stream. He quickly licked the bleeding palm with his tongue, and his eyeballs, which had more white than eyes, were instantly covered with a layer of scarlet.
In an instant, the nails that had become extremely sharp in the blink of an eye had already rushed forward, and Soran, who had his back to him, had not even noticed it.
Sheng Cheng's scarlet eyes became fanatical.
In his eyes, time suddenly seemed to be infinitely stretched, and even the falling leaves slowed down.
Seeing his arm about to pierce into Sauron's heart, Sheng Cheng couldn't help but grin.
However, the next second, his wrist was suddenly grabbed by a white hand, and his arm froze in mid-air, unable to move forward at all.
At the same time, a clear, pleasant, yet familiar and terrifying male voice suddenly rang in my ears:
"Don't hurt people from behind, Sheng Cheng."
Sheng Cheng’s body stiffened.
Soran suddenly heard some movement behind him and instantly retreated to the top of the hovercraft. He waved his hand and the retracted sickle was instantly clenched in front of him.
Through the gas mask, Soran looked over vigilantly. After seeing the scene clearly, he tightened his fingers and his pupils shrank slightly.
When did this person appear?!
His eyes moved to Sheng Cheng who was restrained by the young man, and Soran frowned.
Sheng Cheng's condition is not right.
His nails were extremely long, his spine was arched, his eyes were bloodshot, and his saliva kept dripping onto the ground. He looked exactly like the assassin who had appeared at Victoria's birthday party.
It was obvious that the other party wanted to kill him.
If there was no mysterious man, according to the situation just now, even if he didn't die, he would definitely be injured.
Soran's back was tense, still alert, but he did not appear to be in an attacking posture in order to avoid causing displeasure to the mysterious man.
"You are Crow... Crowstep..."
Sheng Cheng looked in the direction of the arm. Affected by the blood, saliva flowed uncontrollably from the corners of his mouth. He looked at the clown mask and spoke incoherently, like an ugly and pitiful beast that could not control itself.
Crow Step, Crow Step, it’s actually Crow Step? !
Even if the other person was wearing a strange clown mask, Sheng Cheng could still recognize the other person's voice.
This person must be Yabu! Why is he here?! No, how can that idiot Yabu be so powerful?!
The important thing is, isn't he a survivor of the Seventh Base?! Why is he helping the Sixth Base!
Could it be that he was an undercover agent planted by the Sixth Base in the organization from the beginning? Many questions suddenly popped up in Sheng Cheng's mind, but none of them mattered. He had already drunk the blood, but had not yet managed to escape, and the best opportunity had been missed.
If you want to leave now, you have to fight hard!
"Hey, Sheng Cheng, you can actually recognize me?"
The young man seemed a little surprised. He didn't expect that even though he was wearing his favorite mask, Sheng Cheng would still discover his true identity. He couldn't help but feel touched: "Sheng Cheng, you actually like me so much. I'm so happy."
Sheng Cheng: …
I was so angry. At this time, this bastard was actually still making fun of me?!
He twisted his body, and the hand that was not clamped quickly stabbed towards the young man's white neck.
Crow step
Soran suddenly heard this name and quickly remembered that when they were eavesdropping on the conversation between Ariel and Sheldon, in addition to Sheng Cheng, the two also mentioned a new member of the Seventh Base.
The mysterious man actually joined their organization? But why did he save me
Seeing Sheng Cheng suddenly attack the young man, Soran subconsciously took a step forward, wanting to help the other party. However, before he could do anything, the mysterious man had already followed Sheng Cheng's attack, moved his feet, and kicked the other party's arm.
When he came back to his senses, Sauron only saw Sheng Cheng lying on the ground in a mess, while the mysterious young man wearing a mask was stepping on Sheng Cheng's hands with a relaxed manner, as if Sheng Cheng was just playing around in his eyes.
"Sheng Cheng, it was very dangerous just now."
Yaxiao thought about the thrilling scene just now, and his voice became more serious: "I'm sorry, I almost hurt you just now."
Sheng Cheng: ...Fuck
This person is very strong.
Soran realized this fact again. At least Sheng Cheng, who had fallen into a frenzy, should not be someone who could be dealt with so easily.
The young man squatting on the ground raised his face after saying this, and the clown mask with a weird smile on it turned towards Soran.
Soran's muscles tensed instantly, and he said very cautiously: "Thank you for saving me just now."
The mysterious man's purpose is unclear, but at least this much is true.
"fine."
"Yes."
Soran clenched the sickle in his hand and carefully observed the mysterious man's reaction, worried that the other party would prevent him from taking Sheng Cheng away.
It was his mission to take Sheng Cheng away. Even if he had to become an enemy of his savior, he had to complete the task. Of course, Sauron knew that the other party was much stronger than himself.
If Crowstep wanted to kill him, he would have no chance to resist.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll knock him out."
Yaxiao had no idea what Soran was thinking about. He nodded and handed over his club's boss without hesitation.
Because he was worried that Sheng Cheng might have drunk something dirty on the road, and that he might make a scene and kill Sauron, Yaxiao decided to do it in one go. He controlled the strength and gently patted Sheng Cheng's head.
Sheng Cheng, with a look of horror on his face, felt his head buzzing, and the next second he lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
Soran breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and was about to raise his foot to pull Sheng Cheng over and stuff him into the hovercraft.
Then the black-haired young man with scorpion braids and a mask on his face waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute."
Soran stopped and watched as the other party found a thick rope from somewhere and tied up Sheng, who had fainted on the ground.
"Okay! You can take him away now!"
Yaxiao clapped his hands and stepped back a few steps to make it easier for Soran to carry him onto the hovercraft.
Looking at Sheng Cheng who was tangled like a caterpillar, Soran was silent for a moment, then turned to look at the young man who was about the same height as him.
He realized that Crowstep had no ill will towards them and was no longer as nervous as before.
"Why do you want to help us?" Soran asked hesitantly. This "help" naturally included the previous two events.
The forest was quiet.
The atmosphere fell into a long-lost silence. The clown mask worn by the young man had an exaggerated smile painted on it, making it impossible to discern his true emotions.
As time passed, Soran's hands began to sweat slightly. In fact, he had no expectation of whether the young man was willing to answer his questions. This inquiry was just a test.
Test the youth's attitude towards the Sixth Base.
A few seconds later, Soran heard the mysterious young man's voice with a hint of laughter: "Because I like Marshal Qin very much, I am happy to help you. You don't have to take this matter to heart."
Like Marshal
Soran was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask in detail, but in the blink of an eye, the figure in front of him disappeared.
The only one left was Sheng Cheng, who was lying unconscious on the ground with ropes tied around his feet and mouth.
Soran put away the sickle, without thinking any more, he picked up Sheng Cheng and threw him into the car.
Whether it was Sheng Cheng's weird behavior or the mysterious man who suddenly appeared, too many things happened tonight, and he would report them all to the marshal.
At the same time, Yaxiao did not go back to his room directly, but stood on a tree not far away. He took off the mask on his face only after Soran took Sheng Cheng and disappeared in the hovercraft.
[Host, the crisis is finally over. ]
The system was somewhat relieved. It did not expect that in the original plot, the plot point of Sauron's death would be today.
In fact, when Sauron took Sheng Cheng out of the club, Yaxiao had already followed them. But seeing that Sauron had tied up Sheng Cheng, he did not show up for the time being and followed them all the way to the depths of the grove. Who would have thought that he would have witnessed the scene just now.
The system breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the host successfully rescued Sauron without any accidents.
[Yes.]
Yaxiao nodded thoughtfully, [However, the truth does not seem to be as Sheng Cheng explained in the plot, Sauron lost control, and he killed Sauron just to protect himself. ]
In contrast, it is more likely that Sheng Cheng attacked Soran in order to escape arrest.
After killing Soran, he disguised him as being out of control and then began his escape.
The Sixth Base also began to send people to hunt down Sheng Cheng.
[what a pity.]
The system was a little confused when it heard what the host said: [What a pity? ]
Yaxiao clenched his fists, his tone somewhat reluctant: [From now on, I have lost a capable subordinate. ]
He could no longer assign tasks to Sheng Cheng, and could no longer see Sheng Cheng's painful expression, which made the devil very uncomfortable.
system:…
Host, this was not the attitude you had when you sold Sheng Cheng just now.
However, the system also understood the host's reasoning, and it comforted him tactfully: "Host, think positively, you have also lost a boss who would serve you tea and water."
[Yes.]
Yaxiao was instantly happy. He wagged his tail, and his attitude changed so quickly that it made people doubt whether he was celebrating this matter from the beginning.
When the system saw the smile on the host's face, it couldn't help but feel happy for Yaxiao.
Although Sheng Cheng became the host's boss just the day before yesterday, and the host hardly stayed in the club these two days, the two of them hardly met, but it was still a good thing to send Sheng Cheng away!
[Host, do you want to go to the club now? ]
[no thanks.]
Yaxiao shook his head, looking at the tall building with bright lights and night life from afar, and said obediently: [With Shengcheng gone, the organization is a bit boring. I will come and take a look tomorrow. ]
Upon hearing this, the system immediately said: [Then the host should go to bed early tonight. I wish you a good dream. ]
Yaxiao bowed when he heard that, thanked him, and told his fourth uncle to go to bed early as well.
Sheng Cheng was taken away by the Sixth Base, and Fourth Uncle no longer had to stay up late to monitor him and could return to his retirement life.
Yaxiao raised the corner of his mouth and started on his way back to his room.
On the other side, Soran quickly brought Sheng Cheng back to the temporary residence. Because the presence of an undercover agent inside the base was a very serious matter, Mist had prepared the basement in advance and locked up the unconscious Sheng Cheng.
After the matter was resolved, the two adjutants went to the marshal's room together.
It was already four o'clock in the morning.
Qin Qi, who was awakened, did not show any displeasure. His expression was cold and there was no sign of fatigue in his eyes.
"marshal."
Soran did not keep anyone in suspense and directly revealed everything that happened tonight, including the mysterious young man who joined the hostile organization.
Qin Qi's eyes darkened slightly, and he remained silent for the time being.
Even though Mist, who was standing next to him, had been mentally prepared, he still showed a shocked expression.
He had never expected things to turn out like this, and when he heard that Sheng Cheng went berserk and Sauron was nearly injured, Mist's heart skipped a beat.
Fortunately, a mysterious man appeared.
While Mist breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but feel grateful to the young man named Crowstep.
"Crowstep said that he helped us because he liked the marshal." When Soran said this, his tone was a little vague.
The Marshal seems to be very popular recently.
When Mist heard this, he remembered Yaxiao who didn't want to leave the Marshal before, and his expression couldn't help but look a little strange.
However, that powerful mysterious man is different from the straightforward and simple Yaxiao. His love for him may not be true love, and he may have ulterior motives.
"We have extracted blood from Sheng Cheng's body." Mist reported from the side: "The research team is conducting tests. Sheng Cheng is currently in a coma. We will question him as soon as he wakes up."
Qin Qi raised his eyelids and hummed.
"Marshal, what should we do next?"
Soran asked out loud.
At present, the club does not know about Sheng Cheng’s detention, but if Sheng Cheng suddenly stops going to the club, there is no guarantee that those people will not think too much.
"Rectify military discipline and identify undercover agents."
Upon hearing this, Adjutant Soran immediately agreed. If such a thing happened again inside the base, it would be a slap in their faces. Even if the marshal didn't say it, he would definitely check the information of everyone in the base from top to bottom.
Qin Qi's dark eyes were gloomy. After a moment's silence, he said calmly, "Spread the news that the Sixth Base has rectified military discipline. Don't pay attention to the club for the time being."
Spread the news about rectifying military discipline
Doesn't that mean that Sheng Cheng's affairs will be spread to all bases? What if the club gets the news and everyone runs away
Soran and Mist looked at each other, both a little puzzled. They looked at the marshal who gave this order for some reason and hesitated.
Qin Qi looked back at them with a dark gaze.
The two men stood up straight in an instant and responded.
The marshal must have his own considerations, and as his subordinates, all you need to do is to execute them.
Qin Qi saw the confusion of his adjutants, but had no intention of explaining. He sat in the chair, rubbing his simulated eyeballs, and his eyelashes covered the emotions surging in his eyes.
—In the basement of the temporary residence
Sheng Cheng, who was knocked unconscious by Crow Step ruthlessly, was immersed in a long-lost dream with ups and downs in his mood. His expression was sometimes frightened and sometimes happy, and his face looked a little distorted.
In his dream, he was about to return from the club to his temporary residence at the Sixth Base. At this moment, a familiar scene happened. Soran stopped him with his sickle again.
Everything that happened after that was almost the same as what happened in reality, however the difference was that the arm that should have been stopped by Crowstep did not stop in the dream, but passed through Soran's chest as expected.
Blood continued to drip down his arm.
Soaked the black soil.
Sauron is not dead yet.
Ha, but so what
The weak Sheng Cheng could not defeat the strong Soran, but Sheng Cheng, who was empowered by the powerful blood, could easily kill the seriously injured adjutant.
Sheng Cheng was breathing rapidly, with two blushes on his face, as if he was drunk. Every cell in his body was telling of his inner excitement.
He looked down at Soran spitting blood and groping for his weapon with trembling hands.
Poor Sauron, he should find a good master in his next life.
The saliva in Sheng Cheng's mouth flowed uncontrollably from the corners of his upturned mouth. His eyes were bloodshot. He raised his hand to wipe away the saliva, walked over, and ruthlessly cut off the other person's artery.
Blood splattered on his face.
Sheng Cheng raised his hand and took off Soran's gas mask. The handsome man had already died, but his eyes were still open before he died. The hateful eyes seemed to still regret not being able to take him away from the world. Sheng Cheng looked at him and grinned again.
Everything in the dream was so cool.
Before Sheng Cheng could dream of what was to come, he regained consciousness the next second. He sat up, and everything around him was pitch black. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his whole body was cold.
Why is it always like this
It seemed that from a certain point on, his life had completely changed. The difference between dreams and reality was too tragic. Sheng Cheng grabbed his hair and trembled all over.
—Crowstep
He was the one who knocked himself unconscious. If he didn't have the Crow Step, he would have been able to escape instead of being captured by the people from the Sixth Base.
A strong murderous intent emerged in Sheng Cheng's eyes.
When he gets out, we must kill Crowstep!!!
Calm down, calm down first, Sheng Cheng kept reminding himself. He bit his fingers, and he must live until that adult contacts him.
That adult will definitely rescue me.
Sheng Cheng's chest heaved, he breathed heavily, and his eyes revealed madness and trust.
Even if he couldn't kill Yabu, he would definitely make that man cut Yabu into pieces!!!
