130. Late night call

Private courtyard in Ota District.

There are several small tables placed in the exquisite Japanese courtyard, and each table is equipped with a small electric stove, and the pot is steaming.

Yin Sabel and Victoria looked at each other, and several other commissioners also looked blankly at the small pot in front of them.

The Watchers arrived in Tokyo and convened their group's first official meeting.

Before that, they had just made a mistake, using light and heavy weapons to almost level a street, but they only glanced at the naked butt of their prey...

So they were all uneasy when they came, but they didn't expect that Lancelot was treating them to something similar to hot pot.

"This is a kind of food that the Japanese call sukiyaki. It's actually boiling various ingredients with beef soup. It's called in restaurants outside. Let's try it." Lancelot said with a smile.

Susie glanced at him approvingly.

This is indeed Lancelot's style, always calm and composed, like an invisible halo surrounding his companions, making people involuntarily trust him.

If this was an ancient army, then Susie would be the vanguard to take the heads of thousands of troops, and only Lancelot would be worthy of taking the position of commander-in-chief of the army, just like Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang.

But the next moment, the Chinese general encountered an embarrassment because he tried to use his tachyon to pick out a piece of cooked tofu from the pot of soup.

Susie smiled and took out the disobedient piece of tofu and put it into the small bowl filled with egg liquid in front of him.

Everyone present laughed, and the tense atmosphere naturally relaxed.

Lancelot is a man who is very particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation. He said he ordered it from a restaurant outside, like takeout, but in fact that restaurant is a famous sukiyaki restaurant with a long history and uses the best ingredients.

Marbled beef is cooked in a pan, mixed with egg liquid and eaten, and you will feel happy after just a few bites.

"All of us are here tonight, and the mission can officially begin." Lancelot raised the white porcelain wine glass, which contained fine sake.

Everyone raised their glasses to the young team leader. Some of them were familiar with Lancelot, while others had only heard of his code name.

A quarter of an hour ago, these young people were at a loss to capture the Dragon King-level target, but now they suddenly had inexplicable confidence.

"Commissioner Lancelot, I wonder if I can ask you about your next plan." Fujiwara Shinnosuke said in a respectful tone. He is also considered a non-staff member of this hunting team.

"Wait for the prey to appear and capture it. It's that simple." Lancelot said.

Fujiwara Shinnosuke shook his head, "This is Tokyo, without the help of EVA or the Sheqi Hachi family. Looking for someone here is almost like looking for a needle in a haystack."

Lancelot smiled and said, "Mr. Fujiwara, let's imagine this is an ordinary hunting. If we already know that the prey is in a large forest, but we don't have enough manpower, what should we do?"

Fujiwara Shinnosuke was stunned and turned his eyes to the people next to him in confusion, but the others were just as confused as him.

"Set the woods on fire," Victoria said.

This is not a difficult question. Human beings have been hunting like this since primitive times, but it is not easy for people who do not hunt to think of it.

"Perfect answer." Lancelot nodded.

"Shall we burn down Tokyo?" Fujiwara Shinnosuke's eyes widened.

"No, the purpose of lighting the woods is to alarm the prey. When the prey runs around, it is a good opportunity to hunt them. We don't need to burn Tokyo, we just need our prey to run." Lancelot said slowly: "

When they start running, their whereabouts will be exposed and they will scatter."

"How to make them run?" Yin Sabel asked: "They have received exactly the same training as us and know how to hide themselves."

"It will move, because what Lu Mingfei is really afraid of is not us." Lancelot paused, "but himself."

"He's afraid of himself?" Yin Sabel thought thoughtfully.

"He is full of doubts about himself, and he is afraid of the unknown self. In this mood, even the Dragon King is not invincible!" When Lancelot said this, his eyes became sharp.

As a leader, his strengths are not limited to his calmness. He is so calm precisely because he has the strength to match.

The courtyard became quiet for a while, and the only sound was the sound of gud gud gud in the pot.

"Alert! An unauthorized target is approaching the safe house! No weapons detected by the target!" At this time, a voice came from Lancelot's mobile phone on the table.

Everyone became nervous in unison and stretched their hands to different parts of their bodies - even if it was a party, they were fully armed.

Lancelot picked up his cell phone and took a look. The image captured by the infrared camera outside the door had been transmitted to his cell phone. There was a lonely person standing in front of the house.

The visitor was not sneaky, but came to visit in a dignified manner, ringing the doorbell repeatedly.

Lancelot signaled with his eyes that Commissioner Gonzalez got up and went out to answer the door. After a while, he brought back a business card.

"The prey is already on the move. Mr. Zuo Bolongji, acting director of the Japanese Executive Bureau, is here to visit."



In the bookstore on the corner, Lu Mingfei was sitting in the corner, drinking a cup of warm hot chocolate.

It was late at night, but the bookstore was open 24 hours a day, and there were many people leaning on the bookshelves to read, but they were all immersed in their own books.

Lu Mingfei has been analyzing the drawings for several days, and the mysterious port still seems to be shrouded in thick fog.

The huge project, which requires an astonishing cost to build in the polar regions, has continued to operate for decades, but in a country like the Soviet Union where the KGB was rampant, it was hardly noticed or questioned.

There are too many doubts. It seems like a place of fate and curse, and it seems like it exists in an alien space.

Lu Mingfei's mind was filled with these drawings. One night he even dreamed that he was walking in those long corridors, surrounded by rows of pipes. He was shivering from the cold. He tried shouting loudly, but no one responded.

he.

Including Gu Chen who could always pull him out of his nightmares.

In the dream, the port was as quiet as a tomb, and he could not hear the echo of Gu Chun.

There were a few times when he almost couldn't help but let Gu Chen and Nuonuo analyze it together. There would be a vague feeling of fear in analyzing this maze alone.

It was the same tonight. The more I analyzed and calculated, the more uneasy I felt. There was still no clear conclusion. If they didn't go back, Gu Chen and Nuonuo would become more suspicious. Lu Mingfei thought that he should leave.

Just as he was rolling up the drawings, the phone rang.

It was an old-fashioned telephone with a dial, not far from him. At first, Lu Mingfei thought it was just a decoration bought from a bookstore somewhere, but he didn't expect that it was actually still in use.

The ringing tone of the old-fashioned telephone is very loud, a bit harsh.

Lu Mingfei was carrying his bag and passed by the phone.

He suddenly stopped because he noticed something very strange. Apart from him, there were seven or eight people reading in the bookstore, but no one responded to the harsh ringing of the phone. The clerk on duty was also in front of the door.

He was lying on the counter reading a book, but he had no intention of answering the phone.

This was a very strange feeling, as if he was the only one in the whole bookstore who could hear the piercing ringtone of the phone.

The phone kept ringing, and the caller seemed patient, or confident that someone would pick up the phone.

Lu Mingfei shuddered hard because he suddenly realized that this call was made to him. Although this idea was illogical, he completely believed it.

He took a few deep breaths, slowly reached out and pressed the phone, suppressed his trembling, picked up the phone, and put it to his ear.

He didn't dare to speak or even breathe, he just waited silently.

"Mingfei, I know you are listening, I am dad."
