 "So, you just used an umbrella to help him?"

Benjamin looked at Lionel's body. He could clearly see that there was a deep bruise on Lionel's lower jaw, which seemed to be caused by a blow. This was consistent with Schiller's description.

After describing the key points of the conversation with Lionel, Schiller briefly explained the communication process between him and Lionel. At the end, he said: "After knocking him down, I planned to leave directly.

, but before leaving, I saw that there seemed to be a dark shadow near the window..."

"Dark shadow?" Benjamin frowned and glanced at several people in the field, but to his surprise, the person who spoke first was Selina.

"I finished my supper and wanted to go for a walk, but it was snowing outside and the corridors were full of agents, so I just jumped off the balcony."

Benjamin stared at Selena's beautiful face. There is no doubt that her facial features are very delicate and she has a charm that makes people unable to take their eyes away. However, no matter how you look at it, Selena looks more like someone who should appear.

A social butterfly on the dance floor, not a female agent who can jump up and down the surface of a building.

Just as Benjamin was about to refute her, he felt a cool breeze on his face, and with a "swish" sound, he turned around and saw a hairpin embedded between the bricks of the wall behind her. Selina took back her hand and picked it.

Raising her eyebrows, she said: "Don't ask me how I did it, just listen."

With Selina's narration, time slowly went backwards again, back to the time after Schiller knocked Lionel to the ground.

When Schiller turned to leave, his peripheral vision turned to the floor-to-ceiling window behind him, and there was a looming black figure.

Schiller left the reception room without stopping. After the door of the reception room was closed, a figure crept in through the window. It was Selina who was about to install a bug.

Coincidentally, Selina and Bruce's room is directly above the reception room. For Selina, this is the easiest target location to reach.

Moreover, there are many advantages to selecting the first target in the reception room. For example, if someone sees you, you can still say that you were invited here.

But what Selina didn't expect was that as soon as she came in, she saw someone lying on the ground, and the murderer looked like he had just left not long ago. Seeing that Onel was still moving, Selina got curious.

I went over and took a look at him.

At this moment, Lionel finally came to his senses. He grinned and covered his chin, tried hard to get up from the ground, and then saw Selina who was looking at him curiously.

Lionel shook his head. The moment he saw Selina's face, he was a little confused, and then he remembered that this seemed to be Bruce's female companion.

Schiller's evaluation of Selena came to his mind, and it took him some time to connect his identity, appearance and evaluation.

At this moment, Selina suddenly realized that she seemed to be here to do bad things, and Angnel was one of the organizers of the banquet.

So, she turned around and wanted to run away, but before she turned around, she saw that Lionel had a gun in his hand. The moment Lionel stood up, Selina rolled to the side and "bang"

With a sound, the dull sound of a silenced pistol sounded...

Lionel's suppressed emotions burst out in an instant, and he kept shooting at Selina with a repeating pistol, his eyes full of malice.

Lionel's marksmanship had not received any special training, and his accuracy dropped rapidly as the distance between the target and the movement accelerated. There were only a few bullets in the pistol's magazine, and he kept pulling the trigger as if he was venting his emotions.

, and soon, all the bullets were fired.

At this time, Selina stood up from behind the sofa, smoothed her hair, put her hands on her hips, looked at Lionel and said, "We don't have any grudges, right? I don't remember that I stole anything from Luther's house."

Selena's tone was very light, because this was really a small scene for her.

Back then, when the four major gangs in the East District were fighting each other, and there was a hail of bullets and artillery shells, it didn't stop her from stealing anything.

Falcone and the Twelve Families governed the North District like an iron barrel, and they did not stop her from coming and going like the wind. The little amount of exercise just now was not even a prelude to warm up for Selina.

But it was this attitude that completely angered Lionel. Originally, Selena's image in his mind was just a useless social butterfly.

Lionel, who is extremely wealthy, has never seen these social butterflies fawning over him. But now, Selina looked at him as if she was looking at a man who went to a shooting training camp and couldn't even hit the target.

of children.

On this night, Laonel had been stimulated too many times, and no matter how solid his psychological defense was, it collapsed.

He cursed loudly, using every insulting word he could think of, and threw it at Selina's body.

If Selena is really a social butterfly, or the kind of young ladies and ladies from wealthy families who are often seen at dinner parties, then they will be so angry that their faces will be red, and they will curse in a low voice such as "hooligan" and other harmless things.

vocabulary, and then stamped his feet in anger until he turned around and ran away.

But Selena is not that kind of person. She grew up in the East Side and attended rap concerts almost every day. When it comes to her vocabulary of swear words, there is no way that Lionel, who has lived in a big city since she was a child, is her.

opponent.

The first few words that Lionel spoke were insults to Selena's appearance and figure. Selena didn't care at all. But then, Lionel started to talk about her mother, and Selena immediately became furious.

Already.

She stood there, opened her mouth and blurted out a series of extremely intense and insulting curse words.

In the next two minutes, she didn't even need to stop to breathe. All kinds of insulting metaphors, English slang, and insulting jokes came out of her mouth. Three minutes later, after Onel turned off the engine, Sai

Lina was still scolding.

Knowing that there were no bullets in Lionel's gun, Selina simply walked over from behind the sofa, came to Lionel, pointed at his nose and cursed.

Her rapping skills, honed at the bottom of Gotham's East End, are nothing short of impressive. Selena kept up her witty lines for more than ten minutes before she stopped.

She picked up a glass of wine from the table next to her and drank it down. Then she wiped her mouth and said, "Thank you for this stupid old groundhog who looks like Joe's lace underwear. Since you moved in,

I haven’t had this much fun in a long time since Wayne Manor.”…

Laionel's face turned red because he had never heard so many swear words in his life.

In the end, he couldn't help it anymore, completely gave up all the pretense of kindness, and completely tore off the gentleman's mask. He stretched out his hands, rushed towards Selena like a zombie, and waved his fists to hit her.

Selena bent down lightly to avoid his punch, then stood up again, picked up a vase from the decorative table next to her and swung it hard. With a "bang", the vase hit Leone directly.

With blood splattering on your face, he fell to the ground.

Selina put one hand on her waist, threw the mouth of the vase on the ground, spat at Lyonel, turned and walked towards the window.

Halfway through, she seemed to have remembered something and ran back to Lionel's side, staring at his chest for a while.

Selina breathed a sigh of relief when she found that he was still breathing. If Bruce knew that she was killing someone here, and it was the party organizer, he would definitely be very angry.

After confirming that Lionel was not dead, Selina left with peace of mind. Her route back was the same as the route she took here, which was from outside the building. When she returned to the balcony of the room, she suddenly

I heard some noise in the house.

Selena hurriedly leaned to the side and hid on the side of the balcony. At this time, she heard Benjamin's voice coming from the room.

"To sum up, it is very likely that Philby gave this list to his former colleagues or students. What I said in the hall before is that the list is likely to appear on the East Coast. This is indeed true, but

Not specific..."

"According to our observation, it is likely to be in Gotham."

The room was quiet for a while, and Bruce Hanhu's answer came: "Really?...Then you go check it out, why are you looking for me?"

Benjamin was silent. What he was going to say next was not easy to say, but Bruce had no intention of continuing. Benjamin saw Bruce leaning on the bed, looking decadent, as if he had just taken drugs.

.

Benjamin's eyes fell on the pile of wine bottles. He frowned, and then he had to say straight to the point: "We need your help. Our agents once went to Gotham to investigate, but..."

Benjamin seemed to have remembered something, and his face became very ugly. When he looked at Bruce again, his attitude softened a little.

After all, compared with the contents of the reports of the agents who went to Gotham to investigate, Bruce was considered harmless.

Bruce snorted disdainfully and said: "You can't handle Gotham at all, right? This is the foresight of the Wayne family ancestors. You nasty agents... are like shit that you can't get rid of..."

Benjamin's face was a little ugly, but he remained as patient as possible and explained to Bruce: "It is very likely that there is a Soviet agent of the same level as Kim Philby lurking in Gotham City, and this will not have any impact on the Wayne Group."

The good thing is, maybe he is planning to steal your group's secrets..."

"Stealing secrets?" Bruce snorted coldly, and said, "You are really just a stupid agent. With a body like the Wayne Group, there are no secrets to steal..."...

"I can let you experience my life for a day and inspect any factory in the Wayne Group. You can also make all the information you get public. I don't care at all..."

"Mr. Wayne, I don't know why you have so much malice towards agents, but I must emphasize the seriousness of this matter to you."

"Oh oh oh! It's the same thing again, everyone is telling me this, this thing is serious, that thing is serious too, please, can't you relax a little? Look what time it is now, it's already late at night

!”

Bruce covered his eyes with his arms and said, "What's the difference between locking me here and asking questions and kidnapping me? I don't want to hear this!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Selina walked in at the right time. When she saw Benjamin, she was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said very dissatisfied: "Dear, what's going on? Why are there outsiders?

In our room?"

Bruce quickly jumped up from the bed, put his arm around Selina's waist, and said, "I can't help it. Who makes these flies-like agents always like to buzz outside?"

The two of them were already hugging each other, and Benjamin really couldn't stay any longer. He turned around with a dark face, and then walked out of the room.

"It seems that you did not cause fatal injuries to Mr. Luther."

In the reception room, Schiller looked into Selina's eyes. Selina flipped her hair and said, "I just wanted to show him some color, and I didn't want to kill anyone."

As he spoke, Schiller turned his head to Benjamin again and said:

"Officer, if you want to get some help from us, you'd better show some sincerity, right?"
