Chapter 211 False Stealth Master
The setting sun gradually sets, and the warm orange light shines on the vermilion torii gate, and even the falling cherry blossoms in the center of the shrine have a hint of red.
The priests in white robes walked around the shrine in a certain pattern, muttering words as if they were praying.
However, these priests of the eight Sheqi families are not good people. They were all extremely evil criminals and were punished to guard the spiritual places of their ancestors in the shrine.
Hidden under the loose robes are large-caliber pistols and daggers. If the shrine is invaded, they will immediately turn into thugs again.
If someone who doesn't know the inside story sees this scene, they will definitely be surprised. Why is it so tightly guarded for a family shrine?
There was no important meeting today, and all the parents left early after hearing that school director Lu was not coming. These priests patrol so seriously, are they still afraid of intruders?
When the huge sun disk sank behind Mount Fuji, in the dim light, an inconspicuous black mist passed by the priest, not even a breeze carried it.
Yes, there are really thieves today.
Mai Shutoku sighed secretly, she was not a little thief, she was a righteous thief today.
In ancient China, people like Chu Liuxiang were good thieves.
Well, she is the messenger of justice, at least today.
"Long legs, long legs, are you in?"
The voice of Potato Chip Girl came from Shuutoku Mai's headset, which made her tremble. She had just passed by a priest.
The sound focusing effect of the headset is very good, but these priests are all excellent hybrids. She was dancing on the tip of the knife, but her teammates were still kicking the handle below!
Fortunately, the priest was a little tired after patrolling all afternoon. At this time, he was preparing to "get off work" and have dinner. He was in a relatively relaxed state. He only looked back with some doubts and left after seeing nothing unusual.
Mai Shutoku was so angry that she didn't dare to say anything. After the priest left, she quickly entered the shrine, found a hidden corner and said angrily: "Potato chips, are you trying to kill me?"
"It's okay, it's just a shrine. How can it be rare to house the world's number one female ninja?"
Su Enxi had just returned to the Peninsula Hotel in Tokyo and was admiring the sunset in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. She was holding an unopened bag of potato chips in her hand. She was so leisurely and contented.
"Do you think that licking me can make up for the crime you just committed! These are all dangerous people, okay?"
Shutoku Mai said angrily.
"Tsk tsk, I mean long legs. Recently I was playing a game recommended by my boss called Assassin's Creed. After playing it, I discovered a truth. I think you ninjas should learn what it means to be a true master of stealth."
Su Enxi changed the topic.
"What? That game also teaches people stealth skills?"
Mai Shutoku was stunned for a moment, she didn't play games.
"That's necessary. Assassin's Creed is a good game. You'll understand after playing it. The so-called true master of stealth is to prevent any enemy from discovering you, send out an alarm signal, and achieve perfect stealth."
Su Enxi smiled strangely in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
"Isn't this nonsense? Being discovered as a ninja during a infiltration operation is a failure."
Mai Jutoku felt that Su Enxi was undoubtedly taking the wrong medicine when she wanted to teach her about stealth.
"No, no, no, Long Legs, you haven't understood the true meaning of stealth. In my opinion, if our super little white rabbit comes over, it can easily achieve perfect stealth."
Su Enxi retorted.
Mai Shutoku was even more confused, "It's not that I look down on Super White Rabbit. He is indeed unparalleled in frontal combat, but when it comes to stealth operations, he can't compare with me."
Su Enxi smiled and said: "So, Long Legs, you haven't realized the true meaning of stealth. As long as you kill everyone who sees you, doesn't that mean that no one has discovered you? The real master of stealth relies entirely on Wushuang." ah!"
Mai Shutoku:......
The person who designed this game must be crazy, this can be called stealth! ?
You are clearly insulting us ninjas!
However... there seems to be some truth to it.
"Did you find something?"
Su Enxi asked in a low voice when she saw that Jiude Mai didn't move.
"No, I don't know where the old guy's stuff is. The boss only said it was in the back hall of the shrine."
Mai Shutoku walked into the front hall and saw an ink screen. She carefully searched the area and found no mechanism or safe place to hide things.
After dodging two more patrolling priests, she walked into the apse. The walls of the apse were covered with pale and mottled ancient paintings. This mural was obviously peeled off from other places and placed here, because there was no such thing as the one in front. story.
The picture shows the day when the blood of the White King ruled the world. The White Emperor was sitting on a large chariot carried by hundreds of people. His footprints passed through the ocean and Europe to the plateau at the end of the earth, covered with copper and gold. The attendants raised long banners for her that covered the sky and the sun. The enemy's blood splashed on those long banners that towered into the clouds, and it took three days to flow to the ground.
Wherever He went, he built cities with the withered bones of the untouchables as foundations. All the cities were connected to huge impenetrable walls. To the south of the huge wall was His kingdom, and all the conquered races were exiled to the north of the huge wall. , wailing in the ice and snow.
The name of this ancient painting is "Hell Transformation", which is an ancient prophecy among the eight families of Sheqi, the coming of God, and a nightmare.
Mai Shutoku carefully rummaged around the temple. Theoretically, that thing should be hidden here, but it was really difficult to find it during the patrols of the priests.
About three hours later, it was completely dark. The white magic lamp was lit inside the shrine, illuminating the space with dense light.
Mai Shutoku finally found an opportunity and climbed onto the beam above the temple. She didn't boast. In the field of ninja, she was indeed the number one person in the world today.
Such a big movement, but there was no movement at all, and the wind did not even lift it. The priest not far away twisted his aching neck in some distress and continued to stare at the empty hall.
Mai Shutoku moved lightly from the beam, approaching the "Hell Transformation". The mural was indeed perfectly embedded in the back wall, but she still observed some subtle abnormalities from above.
When the white emperor raised his head and roared to declare his majesty, there was a slight bulge on the wall where the dragon eyes were focused.
Mai Shutoku drew out her short blade and looked at the patrolling priests below, waiting for an opportunity. A qualified ninja always has good patience.
Waiting until it was close to twelve o'clock, taking advantage of the brief moment when the priest below yawned, she quickly reached out her hand, pulled the trigger, silently pulled out the secret cabinet from the wall, and took out one thing inside. Then he quickly and lightly restored the mechanism.
It’s hard to imagine how steady a hand and strong psychological quality is required to do all this.
Mai Shutoku looked at what she had got, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously. She was found by my mother.
It was a wooden box with gold paint, and the keyhole was oddly shaped. It was obviously a specially made key, but how could this be so rare for the world's number one female ninja?
Mai Shutoku opened the box effortlessly. Inside the box was a quartz glass tube cooled and preserved by liquid nitrogen. Inside the tube was a semi-solidified black-red liquid.
The ancient dragon's fetal blood, compared to the mild leeches and the King's depraved defective products, is the most powerful evolutionary medicine in the world.
Mai Shutoku took out another tube of "blood" that looked exactly the same, which she had prepared in advance. Every time her boss sent her to do such a job, she felt a little helpless.
You obviously know where the things are and what they look like, so why do you have to ask me to make another trip?
But workers can't complain about their boss. Mai Shutoku locked the box again, saw the right moment and put the box back into the distance, and calmly left the Jaki Hakka Shrine.
"call--"
Mai Shukutori breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the shrine. The job this time was relatively simple, but it was a bit depressing.
"Long legs, long legs, have you got the goods?"
Su Enxi's voice came. She knew that the other party had entered a nervous latent state after seeing that Jiude Mai had stopped speaking. Although she was a bit bold, she also knew when to chat with the other party.
"I got it. You said that the old guy kept this thing. It should have been used by Yuan Zhisheng depending on the situation. We stole it in advance, and we don't know if anything will happen."
Mai Shutoku walked through the mountains and forests without even disturbing the birds.
"The boss's plans are always reliable. Isn't this just for our monster dating plan?"
Su Enxi sighed, "Who makes us the strongest assisting team? Send the Buddha to the West. The bride can't even leave her brother at the wedding scene. Besides, the boss is also worried that the super white rabbit will be there after being disgusted. Japan went on a killing spree.”
"I finally discovered that it's hard for anyone to do this job as a nanny. It's too difficult for me."
Mai Shutoku vomited her bitterness and said: "You don't know, last time I worked very hard to assist Super White Rabbit and the others, doing everything, but in the end, I was almost hacked to death after my identity was exposed."
"Aren't you living a good life? Facts have proved that our super little white rabbit still knows how to cherish the beauty."
Su Enxi joked.
Mai Shutoku complained: "That's not a pity. Later I figured out that Super Little White Rabbit is not a simple reckless man. He is a thief. If he didn't ask me to open the door, he would probably have mastered all kinds of martial arts." "
"Oh, babysitting is not easy. We work hard at night, while the young lovers are playing escape rooms. It's not balanced when you think about it. No, we must apply for a vacation after this Japanese operation is over!"
Su Enxi made a fist with one hand as if trying hard, and then stuffed another mouthful of potato chips.
"Go to the nudist beach in France. As a big creditor of the Sheqi Ba family, you can also threaten Yuan Zhisheng to accompany you and enjoy the sunscreen oil service of the underworld young master."
Mai Shutoku suggested.
"Oh, I do think so, but after this period of time passes, he won't want to go to France for a while."
Su Enxi added: "Besides, don't think of me as a nymphomaniac. I am also being pursued."
"who?"
Mai Shutoku was a little surprised.
"...Well, no."
…………
The time went back to six o'clock in the afternoon. Hui Liyi and Lu Chen followed the push information from the poster and came to a relatively remote business district.
When they walked to the building, Lu Chen was a little confused and looked at the building in front of him.
The building has a total of eighteen floors, which is a rare number of floors. It is also a bit out of place among nearby buildings. There is a large poster hanging on the upper floor, which is the same as the push he received on his mobile phone before.
At the entrance downstairs, there was a female receptionist. After seeing Lu Chen and Eri Yi, she waved enthusiastically and said, "You two couples, our newly opened large-scale escape room project has a limited time offer. Do you want to try it?" Try it."
Lu Chen walked to the counter with Eri Yi, then looked up at the building, thinking that this escape room... was too big, could it still be called a secret room? ?
He heard from Fingel that there was one of the scariest haunted houses in Japan and recommended him to try it. It was said to be renovated from an abandoned hospital. He didn't know whether it was scary or not, but he thought it was quite grand.
But the escape room project in front of him, covering an entire building, was even more outrageous.
He glanced at the flyer on the counter. It was the same as what was written on his phone before. One ticket was 100,000 yen. It seemed quite expensive, but this escape room project was limited to two people, and according to the description of people online, one person The show took a long time, about six hours.
In other words, this merchant can only receive two groups of customers a day. How many years and months will it take to make back the cost of renovating and renovating the building?
has a problem.
Lu Chen was no longer a fool now. He looked at the woman in front of the counter suspiciously. She was wearing standard work clothes, a white shirt and a black hip skirt. She looked more like an OL working in the building than a ticket salesperson.
"Godzilla, what's wrong?"
Eriki asked doubtfully. She looked at the building in front of her expectantly, looking very interesting.
"It's okay, I'll ask later."
Lu Chen shook his head.
However, before he could say anything, the conductor lady said attentively: "Oh, guests, don't be too expensive. We have always praised our place. The six-hour long experience is definitely an escape room experience you have never had before."
As she spoke, she pursed her lips and looked at Eriki, "Besides, your beautiful girlfriend can't wait any longer."
Lu Chen stared at the conductor lady, which made her feel panicked, but she still had to smile, but she was secretly complaining that this was really a high-risk job.
"You... don't have any staff like a haunted house, right?"
Lu Chen decided to ask just to be on the safe side.
After the battle at Mount Fuji last time, he and Eri went to Disney again and played in another haunted house. The staff there were very dedicated, so much so that Lu Chen felt sweaty for him.
Eriki held her tightly with her little hands and almost screamed.
Lu Chen felt that the staff were really dancing on the tip of a knife, frantically testing on the verge of death. That is, when he followed Eriyi, Eriyi felt more at ease. If the situation was different, Eriyi screamed...
The haunted house at the back will probably be horrific.
