On the deserted street, William Marshall, wearing a thick coat, walked alone.
He still wore the sunglasses from that day, and his expression was still extremely serious.
There were only a few people on the street, except for William Marshall, and the reason why he came to this deserted place was because of the letter Miria exchanged with the Gate Threshold Society.
Since it was a letter, William could find out the address to which the letter was sent, so he followed the existing clues and went to the postal department and telegraph office, and found this suspicious place from a pile of complicated information.
The few people are right. In William's view, the mastermind behind the scenes will definitely choose a hidden place to engage in political movements that subvert the country.
Although it is hidden, it still requires basic transportation and cannot be located in deep mountains and forests, otherwise communication between hostile organizations will lag behind.
Therefore, the area of this industrial factory is just right. Most of the places are abandoned and bankrupt factories. There are few people and enough space. It is quite convenient whether it is stacking materials or illegal gatherings.
However, William's perception soon changed. As he entered a deeper area, he suddenly heard someone speaking.
There was more than one person making those voices, it was like an organized crowd gathering in front.
William frowned and stood beside the road, leaning against the wall to block his body. Then, a faint shadow floated out of his body.
The silhouette of the phantom was a skeleton wearing a cloak. It floated into the sky and observed the road ahead from an overlooking perspective.
In that direction, many uniformed people surrounded a factory.
By observing the equipment inside, William judged that it should be an illegal brewery.
Those who surrounded the winery, judging by their attire, were neither from the Prohibition Bureau, the Inspection Bureau, or any other bureau, but from the White Crown...
William's lich form is located high up, unnoticed by anyone in the night.
He just quietly observed the people below, and continued to judge from the details of the badges on the other party's uniforms, and learned that these guys were directly under the National Security Council.
Warren Galilean, William knew that person, and he was considered the highest administrator responsible for national defense and security in the entire country.
Why did his people appear here? Did they discover something?
The lich stared down coldly, and then quickly returned to William's physical body.
The Minister of Anti-Suppression opened his eyes and fell into thinking.
On the surface, it seems that people from the National Defense and Security Council have sealed off the brewery in question and are preparing for it.
But William was keenly aware that things might not be as simple as they seemed.
…
The location of the brewery was exactly the destination of William's trip, but now it was blocked by National Security Council guards. William had to use some other means to get in.
It seems that this so-called seizure is protecting this place...
He was thinking in his mind, and then a whirlwind suddenly rose on the road, blowing sand and dust all over the ground.
The guards lowered their hats to cover their mouths and noses, looking for cover to avoid the strange sand and dust blowing from nowhere.
They couldn't stop it, and they couldn't notice that some sand blew into the brewery along with the wind, sneaked into the house through the gap in the window, and condensed into shape in a certain room.
The place where William reappeared happened to be the office of this small brewery, where many key items were stored, such as an order form on the desktop.
The environment in the room was unexpectedly clean. It could be seen that either there were people working here recently, or it had just been closed down by the National Security Council.
William picked up the order form and found that there were several more at the bottom. It can be imagined that this factory has a wide range of sales channels.
Although illegal brewing was carried out under Prohibition, they were working in hiding in this abandoned factory area, but in broad daylight, they did not take the Prohibition Bureau seriously.
"Luxi Investment Bank?"
William stared at the payment of the order. There were several purchases made by this company.
The secret message communicated with Miria was sent from this area, but why was it the brewery...
William recalled Trini Mark's words and suddenly felt unbelievable.
"Is it true that the threshold wound was tampered with in the wine as he said?"
Not long ago, Trini Mark revealed a key clue to William, saying that there is something called the Bone of the Earth, which can allow ordinary people in a drunken state to enter the secret house.
William was dubious at the time, but after seeing this brewery, he became somewhat convinced.
But can ordinary wine do the trick? William doesn’t think so, that would be too unsolvable.
He rather suspected that something else was added to the wine produced by this brewery, and it was those additions that helped the masterminds behind the scenes complete their conspiracy.
So, William put down the order form in his hand, turned to the production line, took a scoop out of the barrel and tasted it.
Just as he was savoring it carefully, his expression suddenly changed and he turned to look behind him.
There was a figure on the shelf over there, and the other person immediately threw a bright light in William's direction.
William didn't even try to dodge, the thing stabbed him directly in the shoulder, it was a flying knife.
"You should practice your skills..." William stared coldly at his attacker.
The other party let out a cold laugh: "It doesn't matter, I have always killed people so casually, because it is just a link between you and me..."
After saying that, he suddenly took out another dagger and stabbed it into his shoulder!
When William saw this scene, he immediately frowned.
The guy who attacked him grunted, and then the pained groan turned into a sinister smile as if his plot was successful.
"See, the same position..." He pointed to his bleeding shoulder, "So from now on, the two of us are connected together, and you are about to bear all the pain I have endured. The difference is... I
He won’t die! Hehe!”
After saying that, he pulled out the dagger and stabbed himself in the stomach.
"Uh~~!"
As he was in pain, William found that blood was also flowing out of his stomach, and there was a terrible wound there for no reason.
Following his stunned expression, the assassin pulled out his dagger again and stabbed his left and right chests, as well as his lower abdomen.
In an instant, he had four fatal wounds on his body, and blood was flowing wildly.
But the strange thing is that the attacker did not die, but vomited blood while taunting William below.
William's body also had these terrible wounds and was bleeding profusely. But strangely, like the perpetrator, he was not dead. He was still standing there peacefully, and his expression was even more relaxed.
It's unimaginable to be so seriously injured and still stand calmly.
Two seconds later, the assailant's laughter stopped. He froze on the spot, looking at William below in disbelief.
"I am not dead because of my secret transmission ability. Your physical body is riddled with holes. Even the knower should die. Why..."
William raised his head helplessly and looked up with contempt.
"Before exposing yourself, it is best to find out the origin and identity of the enemy...otherwise this will happen..."
After saying that, William actually put his hand into the terrible wound on his chest, and then opened his own chest in front of the other person!
An extremely bloody and terrifying scene was shockingly displayed in front of the attacker, and when the man discovered that there were no internal organs in William's body, his face turned pale.
