After a night of hustle and bustle, Houtu Square has just woken up from the shift. Tired night merchants and cram school students gathered on the crowded bus. The sultry carriage was filled with the aroma of breakfast. When they returned to the empty station, they were surrounded by their colleagues.
Food stall. Tired people slept with their heads against the car windows. Today they are still living as usual. For most people, today is just an ordinary Saturday.
The evacuated shops did not usher in peace. The merchants who belonged to the day took over the handover baton and lit the first fire of the day in the early morning prelude of the rolling shutter. Different from the past, today they ushered in a batch of people.
Decent guests.
"Boss, I want three egg-filled pancakes!"
"Is there any soybean gluten?! I want to add it to the soy milk!"
“Three bowls of hot dry noodles, don’t make them spicy!!”
"Let's fight for a table. I didn't expect that I wouldn't even be able to get a seat this year, haha!"
This group of customers in professional attire looked unusually out of place among a group of netizens with dark circles under their eyes, but the old merchants here showed knowing smiles and greeted the old customers who they saw once a year.
Wearing a kimono thinned the boundaries of clothing, and the same clean face showed the same smile.
Lin Shuwen, dressed in a black suit with his hair covered in hair gel on his back, staggered as his colleagues rushed left and right. He protected Mei'er in his arms with one hand and finally found a stall with space.
"Two big bowls of tofu noodles are packed in one bowl. They don't want to be spicy. Can you give me a small bowl as well? I want to feed this child."
"Young man, are you a newcomer this year? No problem! Hurry up and sit on that empty seat! Otherwise it will be taken by your seniors soon, haha!"
"Oh, thank you!!"
"Hahaha! Go quickly!"
Lin Shuwen quickly ran to the only empty seat and sat down on the bench. The big man opposite suddenly knocked on the table, and the frightened Lin Shuwen suddenly stood up.
"I'm sorry! I didn't know there was anyone here..."
"Hahaha! There is no one, no one, my little junior brother is so scared, hahaha!!"
"Huh? Senior Brother Lin Wu?"
Lin Wu, who was across the table, laughed and pulled Lin Shuwen back to his seat. Several handsome guys who were traveling with him also laughed together.
"Yes, please be polite, hahaha!!"
"Well……"
Lin Shuwen scratched his cheek in embarrassment and rearranged his sitting posture, but just as he was about to speak, Lin Wu tapped him on the shoulder.
"Relax, we are not outsiders."
"Um……"
Lin Shuwen nodded, and held the yawning Meier in his arms on his lap, waiting for breakfast to arrive. Lin Wu looked at his shy junior brother up and down and suddenly took out his mobile phone.
"I forgot Kato Shin in my rush last time. Here, here is my QR code."
"Okay...ok!"
Lin Shuwen hurriedly took out his mobile phone and added him to Lin Wu's suppressed smile. Lin Wu's online name was "The Medal on the Shoulder", and his avatar was a panoramic photo of the Heroes Square of China. And Lin Shuwen's online name
He is called "Fox Slave" and his avatar is Meier's photo.
"Just use "Lin Wu" for my notes. I'm not as troublesome as you."
Lin Wu modified Lin Shuwen's remark name and sent his name to Lin Shuwen, who was struggling with the remark name. At the same time, there was also a McDull hello emoticon package.
"Is this conversation better now?"
"well?!"
Lin Shuwen looked at the chat message sent by Lin Wu and looked up at his senior brother in surprise. His anxious mood gradually calmed down. He put down his phone in Lin Wu's sight and opened his mouth.
"Here comes the tofu noodles~Here! It's not spicy and there's a small bowl too!"
“Boss!!!”
"Boss, you came on time!"
Lin Wu and Lin Shuwen laughed bitterly at the same time and complained about the boss who looked confused. Then they looked at each other and laughed away together.
"Hahaha! Eat first!"
"good!"
This is a food stall where there is no need to hawk. Busy shopkeepers are sweating profusely in the winter mornings, joking with the regular customers who see them once a year. Occasionally, the bosses will call out some names who have not yet arrived, and then use them for various reasons.
The prepared ingredients were poured out.
Several years have passed, and those regular customers who have not come due to discipline, dismissal, illness, marriage, childbirth, etc. may not come again in the future.
In the motorcycle gathering area outside the square, a dozen young people with their companions interrupted the chat of the masters. After parking their cars, they gathered around the central office building and found the graffiti of children according to someone's instructions.
The location. They were also hungry and did not gather together to eat like the target. Instead, they lit various cigarettes and had their first meal of the day with beer.
"They've arrived."
"I know"
Half an hour later, a group of vicious men with unkind expressions approached the empty shopping mall hall. The suits that should have been close-fitting were a bit bloated on their bodies. If you focus on the collars, you will easily find that they are well-equipped.
bulletproof suit.
"Everything is as planned. When the commotion starts below, you just wait and see on the third floor from the bottom."
"Will they really come down? I remember there is a helipad on the roof of the building, and yesterday the special helicopters for people from various organizations were on standby at the nearby helipad."
The leader of the middle-aged man has a black and white haircut, a height of 1.85 meters, a burly figure, and a scar on his forehead that symbolizes experience. However, the team members he leads are not of the same figure as him, except for the people around him.
Except for the man wearing an OK bandage, the others were all different in height, fat and thin. The only thing they had in common was the ferocity and cunning that they revealed from time to time.
"In the current Shadow Kill, those who run upward may not all be the same scum like you, but those who will rush towards the disaster-stricken area must be the opponents we want to eliminate this time."
The team led by the middle-aged man is the "Xing" underlined by Dimon. They are experts in charge of prison-related matters. During the riots twenty years ago, Dimon supported this man named Ouyang Xing to seize the
The status of his brother, Ouyang Su, the then leader of "Xing". Since then, the policy of "Xing" has changed. From the beginning, it only recruited repentant strangers to recruiting all people with special abilities in the prison, regardless of character.
Whether good or bad, as long as you are obedient, "Xing" will be reused. Although after Ye Yuan came to power, "Xing"'s behavior has slightly restrained, but judging from the return of Damon, the talent market for this "Shadow Hunter" is still "
The population is prosperous.”
"Uncle, do we really want to rebel?"
The short-haired young man next to Ouyang Xing was named Ouyang Yi, and he was the son of Ouyang Su, the leader who had been seized by Ouyang Xing. At this time, he was looking at the camera in the distance. After a pause of tens of seconds, he bit
tooth.
"Change of political power, the iron rule of the world, is nothing more than handing over shadow killing to more talented people."
"I still can't agree with it!"
"Hmph, it seems that confinement for a few days is too lenient. Now get out of here and run away if you want to live. If we see you again, you will end up like your father!"
"You don't have to ask!"
Ouyang Yi turned around and left. Five or six well-built men and women gradually walked out of the crowd and followed Ouyang Yi out of the central office building.
"Lord Xing, let him go like this?!"
"As a matter of benevolence, you go and notify the people waiting nearby to bring the traitor to justice."
Just do it. Be careful to hide."
"Got the order!"
The shopping mall that opened early was seeing people in suits and leather shoes pouring in from all directions. Lin Shuwen broke away from the "Sword" team while Lin Wu wasn't paying attention, and arrived in advance at the control room where Feng Xuyuan had led him to a better place the day before yesterday.
You Ling, who is wearing headphones and sitting with the "veteran" security personnel stationed there, can easily see two familiar figures from the screen she is looking at: Mo Yunfei, who is dressed as a security guard at the main gate, and the security guard who is on the third floor from the bottom.
Ling Jiu from the reception staff.
"Num, tofu noodles, you take the time to eat it."
"Thank you, Master."
"Just call me "Feng" from now on."
Lin Shuwen took out the bowl and chopsticks from the shadow, pushed the second bowl of tofu noodles packed in his hand to You Ling, and looked for suspicious people on the screen.
"If you are looking for "sword" and "blade", they are here and here respectively."
The "veteran" intelligence captain who had met the day before yesterday: Li Xiaozheng pointed to two screens for Lin Shuwen. Lin Shuwen nodded to him to thank him and quickly checked the number of people in each team.
"Currently, there are 35 and 36 people respectively. Most of these are old faces. You can see that Ren Ming is still yawning non-stop as before."
Li Shi smiled slightly and pointed at the leader of the "Blade" team. Yan Ming, who was about thirty years old, wore a white coat over a suit. His weird appearance and untrimmed chicken coop were impressive.
"If Damon comes, we will be completely blind here. How about the people who are pretending to be everywhere?"
"I have set up three psychics on each of the upper three floors, and they are ready to communicate at any time."
"Well...that's all we can do, huh?"
Lin Shuwen noticed the "Xing" team that was having a dispute. He pointed at Ouyang Yi and his group who had left the team and asked Li Shi about their identities.
"That one is the son of the former leader of Xing. He seems to have always been dissatisfied with his uncle's actions."
"What happened to the former leader of Xing?"
"He was killed in the riot twenty years ago, and then his younger brother Ouyang Xing took over the position of leader."
"They've been feuding for a long time, right?"
"Well, according to our intelligence, they started to openly disagree with each other since Ouyang Yi was promoted to second in command, but it wasn't until around October this year that the blood started to show up."
"Since we have been feuding for a long time, why do you want to make such a big move at this sensitive time? If you want to show off in front of outsiders, you should be forbearing... You Ling, split the screen of that camera and rewind to the beginning of the dispute."
"good."
Lin Shuwen stared at one side of the split screen. Finally, he and Ouyang Yi were staring at each other for dozens of seconds.
"He is sending a signal! Li Xiao, focus on "Xing"! If nothing else happens, they will be part of this enemy attack!"
"I see"
Lin Shuwen quickly browsed every camera and finally found Ouyang Yi and his group at Port A of the underground parking lot. He turned around suddenly and rushed out the door.
Inside the main entrance, security guard Mo Yunfei, who was patrolling around, suddenly saw the big boss passing by. He stood up suddenly and rushed out following Lin Shuwen.
"Master Yi..."
"If someone in Shadow Kill can detect my signal and escape this disaster, it would be a good idea to be a loyal dog."
In the underground parking lot, Ouyang Yi and his group got into their red car. With the echo of the engine, several high beam lights came on from the exit and around the car. Ouyang Yi lit a cigarette and put his hand on the car.
Outside the car window.
"drive."
The screeching sound of tires screeching echoed underground, kicking off the storm.
