The sky and the earth are all white, and the cold air seems to freeze everything.
The cold wind blew, and a ball of snow suddenly slipped from the branches and fell next to Jing Baiye. He subconsciously looked up.
There were only a few crows in the field of vision, and they flew together from the branches. This kind of creature is active all year round, and there is never a time to rest. Accompanied by a few squawking sounds, those few black shadows passed over the white snow, and soon
It disappeared without a trace.
Jie Baiye withdrew his gaze and landed on the system map floating beside him. The red dot of the target person Yamao Keisuke was still moving forward without any change in speed. It was obvious that he had no idea that he was being followed.
But there was a slight problem on the Scotland side. Nakata left the wooden house and went to the reservoir to wander. He had to notify Scotland after the phone call ended.
There was no other movement around, and Apello's voice came from the other end of the phone.
In addition to his persistent pursuit of beauty, he was also a reliable partner during the mission. At least he never acted like the Riddler and made his plans clear in the most concise words.
"...That's it."
As Jing Baiye expected, Apello's plan had nothing to do with bombs.
He is indeed the best demolition expert, but that doesn't mean he can only use bombs, especially because of the special geographical environment here. A slightly louder movement can easily cause an avalanche. In this mission, they recovered the bombs made by Apero and cleaned up the stolen ones.
The bomber did not come to carry out a general purge of the people here. Apero, who grew up here, would definitely use other methods with less impact.
For example...use the special environment here to achieve an "accident".
"are you sure?"
After hearing what the other party said, Jing Baiye asked hesitantly.
"You...hate him so much?"
With countless lives on his hands, he was not afraid of Apero's suggestion, and he would not be repelled if he really wanted to take action. He was just a little surprised.
There was a sound of the car door opening and the car starting from Apero's side, but this did not hide the low sneer in his voice.
"Just do as I say, Angstra."
"——The betrayers should be punished with the cruelest sanctions."
"You, who have executed betrayers in the past, should understand my feelings best..."
————
Zhu Fu Jingguang stopped at the intersection and suddenly felt a chill on his back.
This kind of coolness came too suddenly and was too shocking, as if something was reminding him from somewhere. Before Zhu Fu Jingguang's stiff body could relax, a cold feeling fell on his cheeks.
He raised his hand and wiped it, his fingertips were wet. He looked up and saw light snow falling again in the sky.
...Is the coolness just now because of the snow?
The sky is gloomy and gray. Niigata Prefecture is much colder than Tokyo and more like his hometown Nagano Prefecture. Before arriving, Kagemitsu Morofushi made a lot of preparations to understand the climate and geographical environment here, and was sure that this was just a quick game.
The light snow will stop.
He was carrying a small backpack, which contained a rifle modified by Angostela that could be quickly disassembled and assembled. In addition to the gun, there were also field survival tools. He also carefully covered the strange yellow cloak on top.
Just open the bag and pull it out easily.
Angstra gave him the cloak by Lake Sawajiri, and then the two separated. Angstra went to the woods where it was more dangerous and might be infested with wild animals to carry out killing missions, while he, as an adult,
He went to do a relatively safer job, and he was even warned before they parted that if there was an accident, he would come immediately to help him.
If it was last year, Zhu Fu Jingguang would still feel uncomfortable; but after more than half a year of getting along, he gradually got used to Angostela's... almost captive protection.
He walked alone along this common tourist route to the reservoir. It is not known whether it was because the explosion in the hotel scared the tourists, or because the New Taipei Ze Village was about to start its fifth anniversary event, so there were only a few visitors to the reservoir.
As soon as he looked away, he saw several tourists coming from the front.
They looked to be in their early twenties, and their appearance and temperament were very much like those of inexperienced college students. One of the young girls complained to the boy next to them: "Really, we made our trip in vain."
"Next time, come back after you have done your homework!" A fat boy said with sweat all over his head.
"How do I know that the reservoir is not open today? The website clearly states that it is only closed on holidays!" The boy who was complained by his companions one after another couldn't help but raise his voice.
Another girl touched her chin: "Probably because of the fifth anniversary event, some reservoir employees went down. There were fewer cars in the parking lot than when I last went there. Due to lack of manpower, the tour was temporarily closed to tourists. That sign
It was obviously put up temporarily..."
As they chatted, they walked past Zhu Fu Jingguang. Zhu Fu Jingguang looked back at them, and after confirming that they were just ordinary tourists, he continued walking forward.
After walking for about 5 minutes, when he looked up again, he saw a wooden house standing quietly among the white snow.
This is the destination of his trip.
…
The snow gradually stopped.
Zhu Fu Jingguang walked towards this wooden house not far from the reservoir. As he walked, he cleared the footprints he left while paying attention to his surroundings. After making sure that there was no one around, he went to the window and carefully hid his figure and leaned there.
Go and listen to what's going on inside.
The sound insulation effect of the wooden house was average. After listening for a while, he found the sound of people moving or talking in the house, but it seemed that no one was inside.
...Did he go out? Or did he go to the forest with Yamao Keisuke?
Zhu Fu Jingguang slowly stood up straight. He leaned against the window and boldly took a look inside - there was no one inside.
The fire in the fireplace was not extinguished, and the firelight illuminated this dim wooden house. The furnishings in the wooden house are quite simple, with a single bed in the corner and a hammock tied between the pillars not far away. There are indeed people living here.
Two people.
Various tools were placed on the wooden shelf, and Zhu Fu Jingguang glanced at the bottom two shelves of the wooden shelf. Before setting off, Angstra showed him a photo of Apero's lost bomb, and he recognized it at a glance.
Recognize the bomb made by Apero.
Those bombs were not large in size, similar in size to the bomb at the subway opening ceremony, and about the same size as a laptop charger, but their internal structure was extremely complex, and the most troublesome thing was that they were new smart bombs.
Zhu Fu Jingguang counted the number of bombs on it and gradually frowned.
Angstra said that Apero lost a lot of bombs. In addition to these and the ones found in the subway yesterday, the number obviously does not match...
At this moment, he felt the cell phone in his pocket used for internal communication within the organization vibrate.
He looked inside the room, then around, and quickly answered the phone.
"Scotland! Nakata has run away. The bomb he installed in the wooden house is about to explode - run!!"
