In the study room on the second floor of the villa, a tall and handsome man code-named "Snake" spread out an ancient parchment on the desk.
Beside him, another person who looked full of the aura of a dog-legged boy carefully glanced at the parchment. He had no idea what the ghostly symbols on it meant. He could only barely understand the round platform painted in the middle and the decoration in the basement.
The altar is very similar.
He had not been a member of the organization for long, and he only knew that it was an organization code-named after various animals.
Most of the important members are well-known killers, such as the Spider who operates around the world. The Snake in front of me is one of the few ordinary people who have gone through qualifications to get a code name, which makes the younger brother feel that he is the target of his study.
His first mission after joining the organization was to kidnap teenage minors, bring them to the altar in order of one male and one female, and kill them to remove their hearts.
It is said to be an ancient sacrificial ritual, in which the hearts of ten pairs of boys and girls are sacrificed in order to seek immortality.
In fact, I think this kind of sacrifice is quite funny. It is more ridiculous than finding a gem that is said to make people immortal. It was much easier to catch people and sacrifice them in ancient times than in modern times. If this ancient ritual is really effective, why haven't we seen it before?
Did people survive forever since then?
...However, he could only complain in his heart and did not dare to complain in person. As a younger brother, he could just accept the task honestly.
The new sacrifice is the girl he caught outside the hot spring hotel last night. He hopes the police will come to the door later. In modern society, many minors have disappeared inexplicably, and their bodies were found with their hearts cut out. Such vicious cases are absolutely
It will cause social panic and the police will attach great importance to it.
Besides the girl, there is also a treasure hunter.
The woman seemed to be familiar with the Sansui Kichiemon house, and they planned to let her lead the way to find the Nioh Stone there.
"Mr. Snake, we..."
Before the younger brother finished speaking, there was a loud noise downstairs, followed by a gunshot.
Snake's expression changed greatly, and he immediately rolled up the parchment and put it in his arms, took out his pistol, and asked his younger brother to go out with him to check.
There were only two of them on the second floor. They quickly ran down the stairs to the first floor, only to find that it was surprisingly quiet here.
The younger brother panicked instantly. This was the first time he had encountered this kind of thing. When he went upstairs just now, he had greeted a brother nearby. Why did everyone disappear all of a sudden? There was no sound at all...
His fingers holding the gun curled up, and he subconsciously turned to look at the bearded man next to him: "Mr. Snake..."
Snake was much calmer than him. He glanced around coldly and immediately noticed something unusual.
"Go to the dining room." He ordered coldly.
The younger brother was stunned for a moment, looked in the direction of the dining room, and finally understood.
Except during meal times, the dining room of this villa is usually closed, but at this time, the door was wide open, as if waiting to invite others to enter.
"Go and have a look in the dining room," Snake repeated.
"Eh?"
The younger brother didn't react. When he turned around, the gun in Snake's hand was pressed against the center of his forehead.
"I said." Snake stared at him and ordered word by word, "——Let you go over there to check the situation."
…
The younger brother insulted his unscrupulous boss in his heart, but with a gun pointed at his back, he could only grit his teeth and go to the dining room to check the situation.
The dining room was at the end of the corridor, opposite a half-open window. The sunlight fell through the glass window and scattered light spots on the ground. It was obviously a quiet and beautiful scene that could be called literature and art. The closer he got, the more uneasy he felt.
.
...tick.
The younger brother paused and looked around suspiciously.
This place is far away from the kitchen and shower room, how could he hear the sound of water dripping?
Tick tock.
"Don't stop!!"
Behind him, the roar of the garbage boss mixed with the sound of water.
"..." Damn it, don't expose that there's someone outside!
The younger brother roared loudly in his heart and asked about his boss's ancestors.
He walked to the dining room, did not go in immediately, and leaned against the door quietly. He checked the gun in his hand, and the moment his ear was pressed against the wall, he heard the clearer sound of water.
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock... At the same time, there was the smell of blood that was so strong that it was nauseating.
The younger brother swallowed his saliva. Although he was new to the organization, he had already realized what was happening. He was heartbroken, raised his gun and turned around suddenly. He didn't even have time to see the situation in the room clearly, and he aimed it at the company inside.
Fire several shots.
He didn't know how many shots he fired. It wasn't until the magazine was empty that he cautiously opened his eyes.
The room was in a mess, the chairs around the dining table were overturned, and several bodies were lying nearby.
At a glance, the younger brother saw the good friend who had greeted him an hour ago - he was stabbed through the ribs with a samurai sword and nailed to the opposite wall. His body was swaying, his feet were dangling from the ground, and his blood was dripping.
This man was still alive. He saw his younger brother coming in and yelled with dizzy eyes: "Run!!"
Apart from him, there was a headless corpse blocking the dining table. There were several bloody holes in the upper body. Several bullets shot by the younger brother just now landed on his body. His arm moved, and his body suddenly tilted to the side, revealing the man who put his body.
Someone who uses it as a shield.
That's a woman.
The woman with black hair and red eyes was biting a lollipop in her mouth. The white stick moved up and down as she licked it in her mouth. She leaned on the dining table.
She took off the candy with her right hand, picked up the Western knife on the table with her left hand, and threw it away.
A silver light that was almost impossible to catch with the naked eye flashed past, and the blade pierced the left eye of the man who was nailed to the wall, splashing a bunch of blood. He could not let out any screams, and his head slowly hung down.
The little brother stood there stupidly, his legs were glued to the ground as if they were filled with lead, and he couldn't move a step.
The woman stood up straight, looked over at him, and suddenly smiled at him.
A white shadow flashed past the little brother's eyes like a ghost, and his mind went blank for a moment. In the next second, his vision turned scarlet.
The world was spinning, and time seemed to have stopped. In his shaking vision, I saw a new, extremely familiar headless body. The hands of the body were in a shooting posture, standing at the door of the dining room...
That's his body.
"!!!"
Snake in the distance tightened his grip on his gun. He turned around and wanted to run away, regardless of his younger brother's head rolling to the side.
But the white shadow instantly reached his feet, crawled quickly along his clothes, entangled his legs and arms, and tore outwards forcefully——
“Ahhh!!!!”
Ligaments were broken, joints fell off, and his limbs were torn off from his body, leaving only a layer of surface flesh that barely maintained the connection.
Snake fell to the ground, the severe pain making him confused, and he saw a woman wandering out of the dining room.
She was biting candy in her mouth and looked in a good mood.

After Jing Baiye confirmed that the man at his feet had no attack power, he checked the system map again to determine whether there were other red dots in the villa and nearby areas.
He brutally killed more than a dozen people without any guilt in his heart, just as relaxed as eating a few pieces of cake for a midnight snack.
——Don’t be soft-hearted towards the enemy and clean them up as quickly as possible.
This is what Panno said to him.
He once gave him some things from the system store, including a palm-sized monitor that, like his system map, could show a floor plan of the nearby area and the distribution of enemies and teammates.
Soon after Panno got it, they had a mission to clean up dozens of traitors in the Marseille branch who were secretly colluding with other gangs.
Before going in, Pannuo held the instrument with a strange expression on his face. It seemed that he was feeling novel about using this kind of machine for the first time, and he seemed to be thinking of something unhappy, and his brows were slightly wrinkled.
Jing Baiye stepped forward and poked him. The blond mixed-race man finally came to his senses and turned his head to remind him.
"Don't be soft-hearted towards the enemy. When we get in, we can clean it up as quickly as possible..." He paused for a moment and tightened his grip on the gun in his hand. "This is responsible for the mission, teammates and ourselves."
"Why are you reminding me of this?" Jing Baiye asked strangely.
Panno was silent.
The door not far away opened with a clang, and loud music came from inside. The bar was still busy at 2 o'clock in the morning, and someone walked out, but no one noticed them.
"You are only thirteen years old." After the man left, Pan Nuo said, "You really... shouldn't stay in this dark night."
The last sentence was said so softly that if it weren't for Jing Baiye's good hearing, he wouldn't have been able to see clearly.
He thought he disliked his young age and might be holding him back, making him a little unhappy, but when he saw that perfect face and the shiny hair under the light, he couldn't get angry at all.
"I'll prove it to you." Jing Baiye added, then grabbed Pan Nuo's clothes and shook them, "Let's compare. If I kill more and faster, you have to treat me to the restaurant in District 4."
King cake and shell cake, I want two cakes."
"…………"
Pan Nuo looked at him steadily, his blue eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and he seemed sad.
After a long time, Pan Nuo picked up the instrument again. As the elder of the two people, he once again warned Jing Baiye, who was ten years younger than him: "Go ahead. Kill the red dots when you see them. Don't leave them behind."
Live mouth."
——Kill the red dots when you see them, don’t leave them alive.
Jing Baiye did this twice before.
One time was to prove oneself to Pan Nuo, and the other time was to kill Pan Nuo, who was one of the red dots - both times he did not relent, both times he solved it as quickly as possible, and both times he... did not leave anything behind.
A living mouth.
He put his hands in the pockets of his coat, stepped on the man's body with his feet, raised his toes, and made him roll over on the ground, only to find that he had fainted.
While killing other people, Jing Baiye learned that they were members of the zoo organization.
Thinking of Jerez Brandy, who was about to become a fourth-level undercover agent, he wanted to lend a hand to help this unlucky colleague, and by the way, he asked for news about Teacher Kuroba Toichi.
But this is not a good place to ask questions. He has to rescue that important millionaire girl first - he can't forget the real purpose of coming here - and then find a safe place to ask questions slowly.
