Luoshui, illuminated by the afterglow of the setting sun, looks like a quiet and gentle girl. The ripples of the microwave are filled with soft golden light. The lights on the tower in the distance are flashing, like a naughty little girl.
The child blinked his eyes mischievously, looking forward to the coming of night.
The evening breeze blows through the embankment, and the willows on the riverside flutter gently. The leisurely old people strolling by the river, the passionate lovers whispering under the flowers, and the playful children playing on the embankment... add a warmth and warmth of dusk to the Luoshui River.
Romance, leisure and nature.
Ye Feng was sitting in a tavern on the shore, drinking wine leisurely. The few dishes on the wooden table had lost their heat, and most of the Dukang wine in the bottle had gone down.
Ye Feng put down the bamboo chopsticks in his hands and looked at the dinner plate opposite the wooden table. The pair of bamboo chopsticks on the dinner plate were neatly placed, and the wrapping paper on the outside was not even opened. Ye Feng smiled and picked up the chopsticks.
The wine glass on the table was drained in one gulp.
Mu Ningyan, who was sitting across from the wooden table, did not move at all. She was like a beautiful statue, sitting there motionless.
Mu Ningyan has been here for a long time. After Ye Feng walked into this tavern, Mu Ningyan walked in.
Mu Ningyan walked into the tavern and did not speak. She just waved her hand and signaled Xu Lu to leave with her bodyguards. Xu Lu frowned in surprise, but still did not disobey Mu Ningyan's order and slowly led the bodyguards.
After leaving. Mu Ningyan looked at the retreating figures of her men, walked to the opposite side of the wooden table, and sat down.
Ye Feng didn't speak, and Mu Ningyan didn't speak either. The two of them just sat face to face. Except for the bartender who brought the tableware to Mu Ningyan, and Mu Ningyan nodded, the rest of the time, Mu Ningyan remained motionless.
Sitting and moving.
Mu Ningyan was waiting for Ye Feng to speak. Long-term business experience made Mu Ningyan well aware of the key points of negotiation. Only by taking the initiative can she be more advantageous. Mu Ningyan asked Ye Feng for help and followed Ye Feng's request.
Come to meet each other, all these made Mu Ningyan feel a little passive. Facing Ye Feng, Mu Ningyan did not make any move. She was waiting for Ye Feng to speak, so that she could regain this somewhat passive situation.
Ye Feng was also waiting for Mu Ningyan to speak. From the moment Mu Ningyan walked into this inconspicuous tavern, Ye Feng had a vague feeling that Mu Ningyan was a terrible opponent. Those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters. Such a noble status
That a woman could condescend to come to this tavern to meet him was a testament to the power of her methods. Although Ye Feng didn't understand why this woman met him, he still felt the strong pressure from this woman.
As night fell, the evening breeze blew, and the white feathers on Mu Ningyan's black top hat were swaying in the wind. Mu Ningyan was still sitting upright, with no movement on her flawless face.
Ye Feng looked at Mu Ningyan's stunning face, shook his head and smiled, then put down the wine glass in his hand, "If you've had enough wine and food, should you continue to sit here, or go out for a walk."
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Mu Ningyan's mouth, her red lips parted slightly, "You decide."
Ye Feng spent two hours eating a dinner. But Mu Ningyan's heart did not waver at all. In one sentence, she kicked the ball back from Ye Feng. Ye Feng couldn't help but secretly thought in his heart.
I sigh, this woman is really amazing.
Ye Feng smiled slightly and stood up, "Let's go, I'll take you out for a walk."
…
On the banks of the Luoshui River, under the weeping willows dancing in the wind, Michelle leaned on the thick trunk and let the dancing branches sweep over her charming face.
Michelle felt a little depressed. What made her depressed was not that the assassination was not successful last night, but the woman next to Ye Feng.
Regarding last night's failure, Michelle didn't care in her heart. Hell Wind, this former legend in the killer world, Michelle didn't have the slightest contempt in her heart. Being able to get rid of Michelle's surveillance, she quietly left the room,
These were not beyond Michelle’s expectations.
However, when Michelle followed Ye Feng again today, she still couldn't be happy. All of this was because of the appearance of that woman.
"Hmph, he is such a romantic killer. Wherever he goes, there is always a woman by his side." Michelle seemed to have forgotten that she was also a sexy beauty and had once seduced this romantic killer in the Los Angeles Grottoes, which made her very angry now.
Michelle reluctantly leaned out from behind the trunk of the weeping willow again, and once again glanced at Mu Ningyan next to Ye Feng with eyes filled with jealousy.
Mu Ningyan's fairy-like appearance, graceful figure, and noble and generous demeanor all made Michelle feel depressed. Michelle even regretted that she had to compete with Kevin to come to China. If she had originally
If she had not come to China to look for Ye Feng, she would not have met the beauties around Ye Feng, let alone Mu Ningyan, who greatly damaged her confidence.
…
"Hey", a slight sound came.
Michelle, who was hiding behind a tree trunk and sticking her head out to spy on the target, was shocked. She had already heard the sound of a dagger being unsheathed.
Michelle's body was still tucked behind the tree trunk, and her protruding head had no time to turn around. The sound of the dagger piercing the air became clearer and clearer, and the sharp blade got closer and closer to Michelle's open back.
In the danger, Michelle calmed down. Fengyun's delicate body was like a snake wrapped around the branches, clinging to the thick weeping willow trunk. With her toes gently, she twisted her body and quickly wrapped around the trunk.
the other side of.
A flash of white light flashed, the dagger cut through the tree trunk, and sawdust flew everywhere.
Michelle clung to the tree trunk, walked around the tree trunk, and slashed the person's arm with a hand knife.
The man behind the tree trunk also moved extremely quickly. He pushed his feet on the ground and retracted his knife-wielding arm straight, avoiding Michelle's thunderous strike.
Michelle missed a hit and immediately retracted her attack and took a few steps back. Michelle looked at the tall blond man under the tree, with a hint of anger on her pretty face, "Humph, so where is your brother?
Why don’t we do it together.”
There were slight footsteps, and a tall blond man quickly walked to the foot of the tree and stood next to the blond man holding a dagger.
"Queen, why did you sabotage our operation?" Jack, who was impatient, held the dagger in his hand tightly and looked at Michelle and growled.
"What action? Jack, please don't slander me. Me coming here has nothing to do with you." Michelle bent down and pulled out the dagger from her boot, and said tit for tat.
Tom, who had a steady temperament, looked at Michelle, who was full of anger, and waved his hand at Jack.
During last night's operation, Tom only vaguely saw the figure of a woman in the telescope, but he was not sure that the figure was the queen. Most of the members of the hunting team who sneaked into Puji Temple were killed, and the two who ran out
The killer only saw a woman and a man from a distance, but he didn't know the identities of those two people. Whether they were Chinese security personnel or people from the Gold Organization, the people in the hunting team were not sure.
Due to the failure of last night's operation, the Grimm brothers and the two escaped hunting team members were severely criticized by the operation commander. This made the grumpy Jack particularly angry, stubbornly believing that this failure was due to his final appearance in the general public.
It was caused by the woman from the Ji Temple, and for this vague figure of a woman, Jack insisted that it was Michelle who had appeared at the Buddha Bone Relics Re-glorification Ceremony.
The calm Tom did not agree with his brother's judgment. In Tom's heart, he still thought that this woman was a Chinese security guard hidden in Puji Temple. However, Jack rushed out of the hotel regardless and walked on the streets of Los Angeles.
The alley was frantically looking for Michelle. As a younger brother, Tom had to follow his brother to prevent Jack from having an accident.
Hearing what Michelle blurted out, Tom was even more certain that the woman in Puji Temple was not Michelle. But Tom was also a little confused about Michelle appearing in Los Angeles at this special time, so he asked coldly,
"Michelle, please explain why you appeared in Luo City."
Michelle was very surprised by the sudden appearance of the Brothers Grimm. These two rising stars in the world of killers in the past year were usually active in Europe and America. Since they came to Los Angeles, it meant that they were on a mission.
Especially Jack's abnormal mood, which made Michelle feel that the mission of the Brothers Grimm was extraordinary.
Michelle looked thoughtfully towards the Luoshui River. Ye Feng and Mu Ningyan had disappeared. A faint smile appeared on the corner of Michelle's mouth, "Since you want to know, then I
I’m just telling you, lest you two brothers think that I sabotaged your action. I came to Luo City this time to find someone."
Michelle stopped mid-sentence and did not continue. She raised her pretty face and looked at Jack with her charming eyes.
Sure enough, the impatient Jack became a little impatient and blurted out, "Who is he? Why didn't you come earlier or later? You just came to Los Angeles at this time."
Michelle looked at Jack and smiled sweetly. She shook the dagger in her hand. The gleaming dagger made streaks of white light. Michelle bent down slightly and inserted the dagger into her boot. "Then you have to ask that person.
, he happened to come to Luocheng at this time, so I followed him to Luocheng. I followed him all the way from the Luocheng Grottoes to Puji Temple, and then he disappeared. I found out again today.
to find out his whereabouts."
Michelle spoke unhurriedly. When talking about the Luocheng Grottoes and Puji Temple, Michelle emphasized her tone. Michelle didn't know exactly what mission the Brothers Grimm came to Luocheng to perform, but
Michelle vaguely felt that these two people might be related to the gunshots last night. As a professional killer, Michelle judged from the gunshots last night that the location of the gunshots was probably at the Luocheng Grottoes and Puji Temple.
nearby.
As Michelle expected, when Jack heard about the Luocheng Grottoes and Puji Temple, his face became even more angry, and the stiff muscles on his cheeks twitched involuntarily.
Tom looked at Jack, who was looking angry, and said to Michelle, "Michelle, where is that man now?"
Michelle was very satisfied with the reaction of the two brothers, but there was no expression on her face. She spread her hands and said in a helpless tone, "I followed him here. Well, before you two attacked me,
He showed up at that place with a woman."
Jack and Tom looked in the direction of Michelle's finger.
In the distance, a pavilion by the Luoshui River has long been deserted. Only the weeping willow tree in the corner of the pavilion is swaying in the evening breeze.
