Chapter24

Two days was enough for Lang Chen to calm down and think clearly about what she was about to do and what it meant.

In the early morning of the third day, Lang Chen dialed Hu Xun's channel——

She felt that she couldn't just use Hu Xun's invitation to do bad things so vaguely, she had to make it clear with Hu Xun first.

"Lang Chen? Why did you message me at this time? You won't tell me that you're going to miss the appointment tonight, right?"

"Hu Xun, I have something that I must tell you first."

Lang Chen raised his head and glanced at the huge red crescent moon sculpture on the roof of Yuemang Building, "I'm downstairs right now."

There was silence for a moment, and after the last sentence of "wait a moment", the communication channel was cut off.

Hu Xun's heart was beating hard: before sending out the invitation to Lang Chen on Christmas Eve, she had already conceived an assassination plan. Of course, inviting Lang Chen was only a part of the assassination.

In these short three days, she didn't do anything, but she polished her plan thousands of times, and no mistakes, omissions and flaws were allowed——

And the most important part of the plan was that she had to let Lang Chen come to her room.

Because of guilty conscience, Hu Xun tried his best to imitate the wording in various situations many times——

Or on the brightly lit Christmas Eve, before the ball started, she dressed up sexy and coquettishly and said to Lang Chen, "Lang Chen, I have a gift for you, are you coming?"

Or in the middle of the dance, everyone was drunk, and Lang Chen was already slightly tipsy.Hu Xun held Lang Chen's hand and said to her solemnly: "I have a secret to tell you, there are too many people here, come with me, okay?"

Or in the middle of the night after the dance party, everyone went back to their homes one after another.Hu Xun took Lang Chen's hand, stood on tiptoe and whispered in her ear softly: "Sister, don't leave tonight, okay?"

But no matter how imitated, this series of scenarios made Hu Xun feel awkward and stiff.

She was troubled by this, but she didn't think that the most important part of this plan was proposed by Lang Chen himself.

This coincidence made Hu Xun extremely uneasy, but it made her feel a lot less guilty:

"Lang Chen himself wanted to deliver it to her door," Hu Xun told himself in his heart, "I didn't deceive her."

Hu Xun put on his uniform jacket, tidied himself up, and went downstairs along the elevator.

When she saw Lang Chen's figure through the revolving glass door downstairs, the paleness on her pointed face was immediately replaced by a bright and pleasant smile, and Hu Xun walked down quickly: "Hey, Lang Chen , Roberta!"

When he saw Roberta in a shabby green robe, Hu Xun felt his left eyelid twitch for no reason——

Although this Roberta was Lang Chen's friend, Hu Xun didn't expect Lang Chen to bring her along on this occasion.

Furthermore, Hu Xun was keenly aware that Roberta didn't like him, and even had a vague hostility towards him.

Lang Chen stepped forward, grabbed Hu Xun's wrist, and at the same time bent down, his voice was very soft: "Hu Xun, I have something very important to tell you, is it convenient for you to talk now?"

There was some itch in the neck, and Hu Xun resisted the urge to shrink his neck: "Of course it's convenient. Lang Chen, come with me."

She held Lang Chen's hand back as she spoke, and giggled: "But I have to tell you first that you are not allowed to bring any weapons into the building."

Lang Chen and Roberta looked at each other: "Of course, you can rest assured about this."

Hu Xun pulled Lang Chen forward, and Roberta followed behind, staggering a shoulder distance from them.

Walking to the front desk on the first floor, Hu Xun walked up quickly, negotiated a few words with the front desk in a low voice, and at the same time led them through a long inspection channel and took the elevator.

"Miss Fox," in the elevator, Roberta stared with interest at the constantly jumping numbers on the elevator's LCD screen, "how did you tell the lady at the front desk?"

"I told her you guys are my friends I invited to Christmas Eve tonight."

Just finished speaking, the elevator stopped on the 176th floor, and Lang Chen and Roberta went through the registration and inspection channel again, and took the leveling elevator to enter the H area.

When I got out of the elevator, I happened to run into Liu Xixun.

Liu Xixun glanced at Lang Chen and Roberta, and couldn't help asking: "Fox, your friend?"

Before Hu Xun could answer, Liu Xixun yelled, "You evil bastard, you actually invited two dance partners!"

Sikong felt that Liu Xixun was an idiot who could only yell, so he frowned slightly, and stood beside Lang Chen.

Hu Xun didn't take it seriously at all: "What's the matter? Liu Xixun, didn't your Deputy Director Nightingale invite you in advance?"

"She didn't at all!" Liu Xixun shook his head, "She ignored me for several days, I don't know what she was up to."

Hu Xun opened the door and let Langchen and Sikong walk in.

At a glance, Lang Chen saw the monitor and radio flashing a faint red light in the corner of the roof.

Hu Xun didn't say anything, she walked to a corner of the wall and pressed a white button next to the switch of the crystal chandelier.

With a soft "click", the wall slowly opened, revealing a white door.

Hu Xun stopped opening the door: "Lang Chen, does what you want to tell me have anything to do with Roberta?"

Lang Chen immediately understood the meaning of the other party's words, so he turned to look at Sikong: "Robeta, you stay here first, okay?"

Roberta nodded in agreement.

The door opened, Hu Xun pulled Lang Chen, quickly dodged in, and closed the door again.

"These cabinets are filled with weapons from my collection."

In the center of the room was a particularly large black square table surrounded by a chair and several machines of strange shapes. Apart from that, the walls were surrounded by tall safes.

As Hu Xun spoke, he opened several safe doors at random—firearms, all kinds of firearms, and only a special three-sided blade chain knife.

The knife immediately attracted Lang Chen's attention, and she stopped in front of him: "Can I have a look at it?"

"of course can."

Lang Chen picked up the knife and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but admire: "It's really a good knife."

Such a sharp and flexible knife is indeed very suitable for surprise attacks.Hu Xun is good at weapons, so most of the arsenal is guns; but Hu Xun is also very cunning, and this knife is also very suitable for her.

"Hey, Lang Chen!"

A call interrupted Lang Chen's contemplation, and she subconsciously turned her head to look.

Hu Xun was slowly picking up a special AUG, tilted his head slightly, and aimed at Langchen.

Lang Chen's face appeared in the lens, her expression was still calm, her eyes were bright and smiling, and she didn't realize that this was a dangerous temptation from Hu Xun——

Or to put it another way, she completely trusted Hu Xun at the moment, so she didn't think about it at all?

Hu Xun's heart ached, and she put down the gun.

You can't shoot, Hu Xun thought to himself, it's not the time yet, she has to proceed according to the plan - then, it's not too late to listen to what Lang Chen has to say.

Seeing Hu Xun approaching, Lang Chen also understood what she meant.

She gently put the three-sided blade back into the safe, looked around again, and finally her gaze fell into Hu Xun's eyes:

"Fox Xun, I don't want to hide it from you, I..."

Hu Xun felt that the needle in her heart was starting to work again. She lowered her eyes, leaned casually on the safe, and pointed to the table in front of her: "Please sit down and talk, Langchen, the table and chairs are all OK, as you please."

Lang Chen leaned back a little, leaning his hands on the edge of the table on both sides. This is a relaxed posture:

"I want to kill someone tonight, so I need a legitimate reason to enter the Moon Mansion. It just so happens that you invited me at this time, and I immediately agreed."

Hu Xun was a little surprised, she stared at Langchen with burning eyes: "Kill who? You mean, did you use me? Do you want to apologize for this?"

"It doesn't matter who it is, but it must be at least a second lieutenant."

Lang Chen turned his head away, the black hair on the temples fell down, blocking her smooth side face, "I'm sorry, Hu Xun, I..."

Lang Chen knew that she had used Hu Xun, but she had reasons why she had to do it.

Under such a dilemma, Lang Chen felt that it was difficult to say every word. Every apology she made to Hu Xun made her feel that it was a shameless rebuttal. Lang Chen couldn't speak anymore, and the space fell into a stiff space silence.

After a while, Hu Xun's crisp voice sounded, echoing in the empty room like a wind chime:

"Then I have to recommend Nightingale to you, because I have long since disliked that guy.

She is a serious captain. As far as her three-legged cat is concerned, you can guarantee that it will not take any effort to kill her. "

"But Lang Chen, can you tell me why you did this? What faction did you join? The Iron Rose or the Blue Rose? Or Hegula's Imperial Palace?"

Lang Chen was silent for a moment, and then she admitted generously: "This is just a temporary deal with Tie Qiangwei."

"Then Langchen, what if I say," Hu Xun calmly took a few steps back to the right until his body could move freely, "I'm only doing it for a forced transaction?"

In an instant, she threw two smoke bombs with lightning speed.

The fog was everywhere, and Lang Chen was shocked. He vaguely saw that Hu Xun had picked up the AUG and aimed at her.

Boom!

The sound of shooting seemed to ring in her ears. Lang Chen had already stepped behind the machine next to the square table in two steps, but soon she was surprised to find that the gunshots did not come from Hu Xun's direction.

Immediately afterwards, there was a hasty knock on the door, and Sikong shouted loudly: "Miss Lang Chen!"

Then there was her horrified and shrill scream. The door of the gun room was violently dismantled from the outside, and a group of people were fully armed and filed in.

"Bah! Who put the smoke?"

The tall woman in the lead cursed and took off her hat, revealing her signature blond hair.

Her blue pupils showed a high-spirited expression. Nightingale flung the handcuffs smartly. With a soft "click", she looked at Hu Xun provocatively, but she spoke to Lang Chen:

"Miss Langchen, you have been arrested."
