On the island, where the charity gala is held, in the northeast corner of the castle.
In the darkness, a secret door in a room was pushed open, and Eric carefully slipped out of the door.
This is an independent room with almost no furnishings. There is only a huge old cabinet covering one of the walls, and the secret door behind the wall is the entrance to the underground secret passage.
Not surprisingly, this room was also dark.
Eric couldn't help but frown. When he entered the underground secret passage from here, everything was still normal in the room, and the wall lamps in the room could still be used normally.
Obviously, there is a power outage here, just like in the secret passage.
Qin Fei asked him to take a look at the dark cell of the castle. Unexpectedly, when he was walking back through the tunnel and about to reach the secret door, there was a sudden power outage and the entire tunnel was shrouded in darkness.
Eric did not carry night vision goggles because they were kept with Yuri for safekeeping.
However, even when he was unable to see his fingers, Eric was still not too worried about his eyesight. As an assassin, operating in the dark was what he was best at.
From the age of 7, Eric began to receive training in various assassination techniques. One of the trainings was to be locked in a huge dark room without any light. The instructor would drive him in and then lock him up without hesitation.
Death chamber door.
At first, the instructor told them that there was a hare in the house and that he had to catch the hare in the dark to complete the training.
After Eric was able to easily catch hares in the dark, the instructor would put a very hungry dog in the dark room for the next training session...
In the end, it's the wolf...
This is an unbearable memory.
As he got older, Eric no longer faced animals when he entered the dark room, but living people.
Ten people went in, and two people came out alive.
This is an inhumane and almost crazy elimination training, which also taps the potential of the human body in killing skills to the greatest extent.
In the dark, Eric's pupils will naturally begin to dilate, three times larger than usual, allowing the eyeballs to collect as much subtle light as possible in the darkness.
Now even without night vision goggles, he can walk freely in the dark without bumping around.
He pulled out his Glock 17 and gently installed the silencer.
A sudden power outage means a sudden change, so be careful about everything. This is Eric's habit as an assassin.
"Boss, do you hear me?" Hiding behind the door, he began to call Qin Fei through the radio channel in a low voice.
The agent's earphones were silent, without any echo.
"Did anyone hear me?" Eric felt a little bad and called several times. He realized that the communication had been cut off.
problem occurs.
This was the first thought that flashed through his mind.
It seems that the good show is here tonight. If it were me, if I wanted to enter the castle to assassinate Charlotte under such tight security, my first choice would be to cut off communications and power.
However, he and Qin Fei had already considered this, so four bodyguards had been deployed to guard the power distribution room. If a gunfight broke out, people nearby would come to support them. How could they be cut off without warning?
electricity?
Walking slowly forward along the long corridor, getting closer and closer to the ancient dark prison, Eric raised his pistol and pointed it at the doors he passed.
Suddenly, the power system seemed to be restored.
Snapped--
The lights are bright!
Eric was like a clown on stage covered by a beam of light, his whole body exposed in the middle of the empty corridor.
"Fake!"
Ta-ta-ta--
There were clear sounds of footsteps coming from the corner of the corridor ahead, and someone was walking towards the black cell.
Except for a few pillars, there is almost no place to hide!
Under the bright light, hiding behind a pillar that is only half a person thick is definitely not a good choice, and turning around and running to the corner at the other end to hide is not enough time.
…
In less than three seconds, three guys in black bodyguard suits appeared from the corner at the end of the corridor and walked straight towards the door of the black cell.
The entire corridor was empty, except for the footsteps of three people echoing continuously.
However, the three of them did not notice that at the top of the corridor, which was more than three meters high, at the junction between the pillars and the dome, a gecko-like black figure huddled behind the pillars, watching them quietly.
"A bodyguard from GMT Company?" Eric, who was hiding on the top of the pillar after seeing the person's clothes clearly, was a little surprised. He almost jumped down and asked these people what happened.
It stands to reason that the GMT bodyguards are one of our own. They were hired by Crown Prince Hassan through the elite association to protect his sister Charlotte, and they are considered his own group.
But for some reason, a strange intuition prevented Eric from going down to say hello to these people.
He finally decided to continue and have a look before talking.
One of the three bodyguards had a large black Ma Gaixian shoulder bag on his shoulder. Judging from the bodyguard's walking pace and the extent to which the shoulder strap was embedded in the shoulder pads of his suit, the contents inside seemed to have a certain weight.
"I wonder what happened to Qin Fei and the others..."
Eric now has two choices. One is to wait for the three people to enter the dark cell and then go down to the banquet hall to find Qin Fei and his teammates. The other is to find out what these people are doing in the dark cell?
According to the information obtained when the communication was still open, there should be Swedish police guarding two idiot-like killers.
However, Eric quickly made a choice and decided to stay here to find out what happened.
Qin Fei and others have enough ability to deal with any emergencies, and if something happens inside the castle, they will definitely choose to evacuate from the secret passage. It would be better to wait for him here.
Eric had just made up his mind when three GMT company bodyguards walked to the door of the black cell and knocked on the door.
The thick wooden door opened with a creak, and Eric looked down from the top of the pillars, only to see a man wearing a silicone mask appearing in the room.
"Why is the work so slow?" The masked man seemed a little unhappy.
"There was a gun battle in the direction of the lobby just now, and we were delayed a little bit." The bodyguard said, "The situation has changed somewhat."
"Come in and talk." The masked man let the three of them in and closed the door with a bang.
Quietness returned to the corridor once again, but as he stared at Eric who was lurking on the corridor, it felt like an earth-shattering tsunami had occurred in his heart.
The voice of the masked man...
Even though it was only a few words, he was so familiar and very familiar that Eric would recognize who he was even if he heard just a few words, let alone a few words!
impossible!
Eric felt that his heartbeat had reached the highest speed in an instant, and countless pores on his body were opening one by one, and a dense layer of cold sweat oozed out.
