1284 Return of the Assassin
After the old man spoke, the room fell into silence for a moment.
"What do you mean?"
Lin Chi stood on the right side of the door panel, waiting for the other party's answer. Seeing that Shen Wenchong was about to draw his sword, he once again stopped the guard's actions.
Generally speaking, except for some special guys, the NPCs in the game cannot tell the difference between players and other natives.
But now, the leader of the Yanfeng City Intelligence Agency said something surprising to Lin Chi. Could it be...
"You are not the waste in the past."
The old man expressed the fact that all the NPCs around Lin Chi had said in an extremely straightforward way: "Don't think I can't see... the so-called 'Young Master' is dead, and now the owner of this body has been replaced."
"It's nonsense." Shen Wenchong's tone was quiet: "Lord, please allow me to teach him a good lesson!"
"Forget it, it's also necessary to respect the elderly." Lin Chi waved his hand and ordered Shen Wenchong: "You go outside the house and wait. I have something to say to him alone."
After these days, Shen Wenchong knew that it would be useless to say more, so he could only nod and said, "Please be sure to pay attention to safety."
Watching Shen Wen rush down the stairs, after hearing the sound of the door closing downstairs, Lin Chi reached out and knocked on the door panel, and said softly: "Now there are only two of us left."
"So what?" The old man's voice was not friendly.
"You can tell that I am an 'outsider', right?" Lin Chi was also very straightforward when there was "no one" nearby, completely ignored the audience watching the live broadcast and asked, "You still have that part of your memory, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the old man's breathing suddenly became rapid:
"How did you know?"
"I have contacted the 'relevant departments'." Lin Chi smiled: "Can you open the door? I prefer face-to-face chat."
According to War Observer, many of the NPCs in this game were former rebels. After being brainwashed by the designer with modules, they threw them into this map for "public execution".
The operation of the program is always more or less biased. Among these NPCs who were rebels, some guys seem to have not been completely brainwashed, and still have some memories of the past.
As the leader of the Yanfeng City Intelligence Agency, the old man is the lucky one who has left his memory.
However, to some extent, the residual memory should be said to be a torture because-
"Hmm? What's going on?"
The coach who was watching Lin Chi's live view, the view was suddenly cut to another player. He tried to return to his original view, but found that the name "countercurrent" had turned into an unselectable gray.
Since the moment the young master of Yanfeng City entered the room, the conversations that could be heard from the live view have been intermittent, and there was no picture at this time.
If this had happened decades ago, the reason for this situation would have been attributed to the simple "bad signal". However, in live broadcasts of intrabrain imaging games, signal problems are impossible.
"Is it..."
Thinking back to the time when I was saved, the coach who was wandering in the virtual world made non-existent laughter.
"This kid still likes to make trouble as always."
...
Shen Wenchong stood beside the black wall, lowered his head irritably, and kicked a stone at his feet.
Since he was rescued by himself, the young master has indeed changed. Not only did he do his best in urban construction, but he also seemed to be hiding something from himself.
He was obviously the young master's personal guard, but now he could only be responsible for guarding outside. This kind of thing has happened more than once, making Shen Wenchong increasingly irritable.
Even if the young master wears a mechanical device, he still needs to be extra careful when facing the elderly in the intelligence agency. If that guy suddenly attacks, he will not have time to protect the young master outside the house.
In addition, although he knew that he shouldn't think about it, Shen Wenchong began to think quickly:
The old man just said, "The Young Master is no longer the person in the past." Although his words are very disrespectful, they still have some credibility:
The young master who was rescued by himself and then ascended the throne again, except that his appearance and voice had not changed much, was indeed completely different from his past.
Of course, Shen Wenchong knew that after returning from the brink of death, many people's personalities would change. But the changes in the young master are a bit too big now.
Is the old man's words "the body master has been replaced" true? If this is true, who is the person he is loyal to?
"ah……"
Shen Wenchong covered his forehead that was vaguely aching and focused his eyes on the crowded streets.
Then, he noticed something seemed wrong:
This is a commercial area in Yanfeng City, and it is natural to be more lively. But among the bustling crowd, there seem to be some guys with ulterior motives.
Before joining the guard, Shen Wenchong was once a reconnaissance force under General Qin and had some experience in surveillance in infiltrating enemy territory.
If you want to disguise yourself as a passerby on the street, it is not possible to solve the problem by changing clothes. You must also work hard on your behavior.
Since most of the time they perform tasks of sneaking into the enemy camp, Shen Wenchong is not a master in "street lurking". However, among the passers-by in his sight, some people seemed to have gone too far and seemed very amateur.
——Not mentioning the few sneaky hooded men standing on the street, the guys on the street who were in a hurry and seemed to be rushing to attend the funeral were also incompatible with the situation of the commercial street.
Shen Wenchong's eyes accidentally passed by those guys and found that those people seemed to be staring at him, and several of them were still whispering.
He was sure that these people were not members of the Guard. That is to say...
Realizing that these people were probably coming for the young master, Shen Wenchong immediately drew his sword without saying a word and slashed at a woman passing by in front of him.
"Die!" He let out a wild roar.
Seeing someone trying to kill people in the street, passers-by on the street immediately began to run away. Shen Wenchong's blade did not touch the woman, and the other party had already rolled and crawled and ran away.
With his sudden intimidation, the passers-by on the street suddenly fell into chaos, and the assassins mixed in the crowd were also pushed away by the crowd.
Taking advantage of the opportunity that the assassins were blocked, Shen Wenchong rushed into the room quickly, rushed up the stairs in three steps, and grabbed the arm of the boy standing in front of the wooden door.
"There are assassins! We must leave!" he shouted.
