When Hillier received an urgent text message from Caius, he and Marcus were investigating the disappearance of the head of the branch under the leadership of Liu Man.From the moment they got off the plane, everything had been taken care of by Liu Man. Liu Man's high efficiency made Hillier understand why Ah Luo promoted him to be one of the seven leaders.

After staying in Liu Man's territory for two days, Hillier and Marcus understood the basic situation.In the correspondence between Liu Man and Nakiya, they didn't find any clues.But this is also within their expectations, Hillier said early on that Liu Man had nothing to do with the disappearance case.

Seeing that he was removed from the list of suspects in the disappearance case, Liu Man couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. He was most worried that he would be wronged for no reason and thus lose A Luo's trust.It would be fine if he was just dismissed, but he was even more worried that if he was targeted and lost his life, his secret would no longer be kept.

When the investigation got bogged down, Marcus suggested that they should visit Nakia's territory.So on the second day after making this decision, they flew to St. Petersburg, Russia by private plane.

St. Petersburg is located in the north, and the cold wind in early spring whistled in their ears, making people's ears hurt.There was still a thin layer of snow on the side of the street, and the pedestrians around were wrapped in heavy coats, walking hurriedly on the street with their heads down.The whole city was covered with snow, and the beautiful scenery in front of me just added a bit of romance and relaxation to this "business trip".

Hillier looked around curiously, counting Liu Man's hometown, this is the fourth country he has been to.Vampires are creatures that are not afraid of severe cold, and their body temperature can even compete with the freezer of a refrigerator.But in order to keep a low profile, Hillier and Marcus still had to wear winter clothes.

Hillier's face was buried in a soft scarf, and the long and thick scarf covered half of his face, revealing a head of blond hair and a pair of dripping eyes.The vibration of the phone pulled him back from tourist mode, he took out his phone from the inside of his coat, and looked down at the lit phone screen.

It's a pity that most of Hillier's face was blocked by the scarf, and the phone couldn't recognize its owner's face.Hillier, who failed to brush his face, could only reach out and pull down the scarf, revealing his handsome face with difficulty.

The sender of the text message is Caius, and the content of the text message is also very Caius style, which is both concise and arrogant.Looking at this short and cold text message, Hillier could only curl his lips, complaining childishly that his father had no love.It wasn't until he saw the last sentence of exhortation that he faintly felt the awkward father's love in the text.

However, the lively expression on his face soon collapsed, and the content of the text message made him fall into deep thought.

Marcus glanced at Hillier silently, and he noticed his little movements when he took out his mobile phone.However, Marcus did not rush to ask or blame, he moved silently in front of Hillier, and used his tall body to protect the unsuspecting Hillier who was focused on "playing with the phone".

They had just come out of Nakiya's house, and they were standing on the side of the road waiting for the black car to pick them up. The guards behind them were holding two large boxes of materials brought out from Nakia's office and residence.

Nakia lives in the Vasileostrovsky district, not far from the center of St. Petersburg.Nakia's family is actually from the Middle East, but since she left the Middle East and came to Russia, she has been living in St. Petersburg.In order to integrate into Russia, she gave herself a down-to-earth name: Tatyana.

I don't know if it's to cover up her tracks, but Nakiya's residence is actually in the civilian area of ​​human beings, and she even rents the house itself.The indoor area of ​​the house is not large, it probably looks like two bedrooms and one living room.When Marcus and others entered Nakia's house in a more civilized way (picking the lock), Marcus immediately noticed the unusually neat layout.

It seems that no one has visited Nakiya's house for a long time, and there is already a thin layer of dust on the cabinet in the entrance.Opening the shoe cabinet, pairs of shoes were placed neatly and orderly inside, all black high heels as far as the eye could see.

Marcus waved his hand and asked everyone to scatter to check the situation inside the house, hoping to find any clues.But after they checked all the items in the house, they were surprised to find that Nakia's personal items were either put away or disappeared.Except for Nakia's personal belongings, there is no trace of the second person's life in the house.

Although Nakiya's personal connections are intricate, it is strange that she has never had a fixed partner, so she has been living alone for a long time.Marcus knew this information before, and didn't have any doubts about Nakiya living alone at the beginning. In his opinion, what's so special about a vampire who likes to walk alone? He hasn't seen anything in his life for thousands of years. Pass?

In addition, Nakia's appearance is considered ordinary among vampires, but the characteristics of vampires make her more charming than ordinary humans.Few human beings can resist the innate attraction of vampires. As for whether the result of being attracted is good or bad, everyone has their own fate.

There were not many clues about Nakia's house, so they could only reluctantly search the contents of Nakia's house carefully and carefully, and finally went out reluctantly, locked the door again and went downstairs.

Marcus stood quietly in the cold wind thinking about Nakia, obviously this too "clean" room made him feel weird, he always felt like Nakia himself or something else People quietly erased the clues in advance.Right now, he can only find a few suspects among Nakia's many relationships, and then follow the vines to investigate, and he can always find some clues.

Liu Man stood beside Marcus with his eyes downcast. He and Nakiya tacitly kept out of each other's affairs, so he seldom set foot in Russia, and he didn't know much about Russia than Marcus and others.Behind him stands a Russian-speaking guard who acts as a follower and translator.

The trip to Russia this time was in a hurry, Liu Man just dealt with all the big things in his hands in a hurry, and was anxious to accompany the boss to investigate the disappearance case, and he could only let his subordinates do those trivial things.However, without his check, there were still flaws in the arrangements made by his subordinates.

A group of people have been standing on the street for 10 minutes facing the cold wind in early spring. Standing in the cold wind and waiting for the bus is not a pleasant experience—even if none of these people are afraid of the cold.This difficult 10 minutes made Liu Man a little frustrated. He is a perfectionist, and it is obviously not in his habit to lose the chain.

Marcus stood there patiently waiting for the car, his face pale from the cold.He clasped his hands and hung in front of him.Although Marcus has a gentle and polite personality, he exudes an air of superiority all over him. He keeps quiet, which makes others afraid to speak casually.

And Hillier didn't care about the 10 minutes of silence at all, he was completely distracted by the text message in his hand.He stared blankly at the toes of his shoes, wondering what he was thinking.

Wherever this group of well-dressed men in black stood, it was a sight to be noticed, especially this group of people were still unfamiliar faces.Although Nakia's house was far enough away, enthusiastic St. Petersburg residents still couldn't bear to report.

While several people were standing on the side of the road waiting for the bus, two tall and strong JCs approached them silently.Marcus is the kind of person who doesn't panic even when a disaster is imminent. He watched indifferently as the two strong bear-like jcs walked towards him fiercely.

"Откудаты Чтотыздесьделаешь (Where did you come from? What are you doing here?)"

Seeing that the visitor was not friendly, Liu Man frowned and signaled the guard who could speak Russian to come forward to communicate with him.But it seems that Marcus does not need an interpreter, he has already talked with this St. Petersburg jc with a northern accent.

"We're here on a business trip." Marcus replied lightly, his size was not inferior to these northern black bears, "What's wrong?"

The well-dressed Marcus made the two jcs let go of their wariness, especially his special aristocratic accent made jc wonder if he had offended a big shot.Thinking of it this way, even their tone of voice became better.

"Some residents reported to us that your behavior was suspicious. Let us take a look. You are new faces in this area. There was another murder case in this area some time ago. Please cooperate with our questioning."

"Murder case?"

"Well, in the past few weeks, people have reported that corpses were found near this residential area. I suggest that you do not go out when it is dark." One of the jcs warned with good professional ethics road.

Marcus keenly grasped the key words in their mouths, and he felt that this might be a good entry point, so he pretended to be worried and continued: "Has this serial killer been caught?"

As soon as one of the jcs was about to speak, he realized something was wrong, so he opened his mouth, and finally tried to cover up the topic vaguely: "You misunderstood, these few incidents were not the work of serial killers. In a few of them we have It is confirmed that it is zs, and we preliminarily conclude that the others are wild animal attacks."

After that, he glanced at the box in the guard's hand again, and said loudly, "Although these cases should be accidents, please cooperate with our investigation just to be on the safe side."

"Understood, this is your duty."

Marcus nodded as if approachable, but he had already obtained the information he should have, so there was no need to waste time on it.Seeing that the two jcs seemed to want to check the contents of the box, he frowned without leaving a trace, and planned to take something out of his pocket to stop them.

"Master Volturi."

Several black imported cars drove over from the side of the street, and an elderly man stepped out of the car. He was wearing a gray hat and a coat of the same color.The two jcs immediately changed their attitudes when they saw this man.

"Mr. Lebedev."

"Haha, who did I think it was? It turned out to be Sergey and Ilya." The man laughed and patted the two of them, then asked suspiciously, "What are you doing?"

"We received a report from the residents, so we came to patrol and take a look." Sergey replied with a smile.

"It's such a cold day, thank you for your hard work." Lebedev sighed, "These are my invited guests. They haven't been to St. Petersburg yet. I'll show them around."

"Okay, okay." Sergey and Ilya broke into a cold sweat when they heard this, and they immediately put on smiles on their faces and said politely to Marcus: "Welcome to St. Petersburg, I wish you all the best in your journey! joy!"

"Thank you." Marcus nodded at them reservedly, and led Hillier into the car.

The two people, the people, the public, and the servants looked at the black cars going away, and thought to themselves that it's a good thing they didn't mess around just now, they didn't expect these people to be so powerful.

……

The heating temperature in the car was just right, Hillier took off the scarf and took a breath.After saying hello to Lebedev tactfully, he turned his head out of the window and looked at the street scene of St. Petersburg. He didn't have any complaints about Lebedev's late arrival, after all, he thought things were the same whether in the car or in the latrine.

The Lebedev family is very famous in St. Petersburg, not only because they are an old-fashioned wealthy family, but also because they have an ambiguous relationship with the military.Beyond this layer, the Lebedevs had been Volturi informants for generations.

The man in front of him was named Maxim Lebedev. After his father retired, he officially became the new generation of Volturi's informant, and he had been in the business for decades.Maxim took out a few business cards from his pocket and gave them to Marcus, saying that if someone made things difficult for them in St. Petersburg in the future, he would just take out these business cards.

Seeing Maxim's aging appearance, Marcus couldn't help showing a bit of nostalgia, but he didn't say anything, just chatting with Maxim with a smile.

"Maxim, I heard that you had a grandson in your arms a while ago?"

"Hehehe, I didn't expect the young master to know." Maxim's face was full of joy, he coughed a few times, and sighed: "I'm getting old, and it's almost time to retire, and the stage should be handed over to the next generation." For a lifetime."

"Time flies so fast, you're already a grandpa."

"No, I was honored to meet the master once when I was young. You really look alike to your grandfather, young master, even the majestic demeanor is exactly the same... Sigh, I didn't expect to see the Volturi family in my lifetime." My lord, it's my luck."

Marcus didn't react when he heard this, but Hillier suddenly turned to look at Marcus in doubt, as if he didn't understand the conversation between the two.

"We conceal our identities in our activities in human society, so even Maxim doesn't know our real identities. I forgot to tell you, this time I pretended to be my own grandson. As for you...your identity It's my nephew, don't get me wrong."

Marcus squinted his eyes and explained softly to Hillier, and then looked at Hillier who was dazzled by seniority as a prank.

"Nephew, what did you say in that text message?"

Hillier glanced at Marcus, who had already entered the role, and lowered his voice helplessly and asked, "Is it convenient to say it here?"

"Don't worry, there are no outsiders."

Hillier quietly glanced at Maxim who was sitting in the front seat. The other party didn't seem to notice anything wrong, but just looked at Marcus with a smile, like an elder who loves the younger generation.

Looking at the old Maxim in front of him, Hillier suddenly thought maliciously: "Maybe Marcus hugged Maxim when he was a child a few years ago."

Hillier shook his head to drive away those unconstrained imaginations, and said to Marcus seriously: "I just received a text message from my father, something happened at the headquarters, I have to go to do other things at night, I may not be able to continue this Side investigation."

"So suddenly? Is it serious?" Marcus asked worriedly.

"I don't know yet." Hillier shook his head. "I need some time to investigate, but it's urgent."

"Are you going alone?" Marcus asked, raising an eyebrow.In his opinion, no matter how capable Hillier is, he is still just a child, and how can Caius rest assured that Hillier can do the task by himself, so it must be his own decision for Hillier to go by himself.

"...I can only solve this urgent problem by doing it myself." Hillier replied thinking about the content of the text message.

Caius' text message only briefly explained the situation and asked Hillier to speculate on Alice's location, but Hillier believes that Alice's action trajectory is changeable. When he uses his ability, Alice may also predict His actions, he had to find Alice one step ahead of her prediction.

It's like playing a game of chess, and it's like running a race.

Now he is in a passive position, and he has already lost the wind at this time.The only advantage is that he is still hiding in the dark, but he won't be able to hide in the dark for long.If you want to win, you must either take a shortcut and reach the finish line first, or you can only defeat your opponent...

Hillier immediately realized that the battle had begun, and it would be a duel of superpowers between him and Alice.Let's see if Alice's prophecy is stronger, or Hillier's sixth sense is stronger.

"But of course I won't be alone, as long as you don't mind me bringing my father's two cronies with me."

The author has something to say: I don’t know Russian, so I translate all the Russian languages ​​by Google (crying and laughing)

I've been thinking about how to end it, I want to be bald...
