stand-in creed

"The enemy's ability is very similar to mine, except that what the opponent controls is not liquid, but "iron element". "

"Control the iron element?"

Apache was taken aback.

Nero nodded, then lightly clenched his fists.

Although the strength is still strong, the feeling of "weakness" cannot be concealed from Nero's perception.Nero felt that his strength had weakened.

"The blades used by the enemy to attack are not made 'out of thin air' but require raw materials.And this raw material is the iron element contained in the body of the attacked target!The iron element in the body becomes a blade and leaves the body. In other words, the iron element in the body loses a lot, which of course will cause a terrible result——

"Breathing gets weaker.

"The ripple method is derived from the power of breathing. When the breathing becomes weaker, my ripples will naturally also become weaker."

"This……"

Everyone was a little nervous.

This is not good news by any means.Not only that, but Nero looked down at Naples through the glass window.

"The enemy's range is unknown.

"Not only that, I didn't observe any omens when the enemy launched a stand-in attack. It can be said to be an attack in the shape of a tiger and with the sound of a rose.

"And under this premise, Naples has a population of "hundreds of thousands"!If such an enemy is hiding in the crowd, how to find him out?What's more important is that if you take the same trick "twice" before finding out the opponent, it's not just a matter of weakening your strength.

"It is very likely that the whole person will suffocate to death due to iron deficiency!"

Nero felt the pressure for a long time.

These days, from the so-and-so "handicrafts" to this moment, Nero finally felt the heavy pressure.

Apache took a deep breath.

"How about leading the other party to a place where there is no one?As long as someone gets close, Sugimoto-san's substitute will be able to spot it! "

"Not very feasible.

"Suzumi's stand-in ability has been exposed. The enemy—I think it is very likely to be the captain of the assassination team, Risut Nero, there is no evidence, just intuition-can control the number of stand-ins like Proxiet and Gaciu. As a messenger, he is by no means a brave man.

"He will never be alone with us.

"Under the circumstances that we don't know his true face and Suzumi's double cannot be traced, the tens of thousands of people in Naples are his natural means of hiding!"

Apache became more and more nervous.

"If it's really the captain of the assassination squad, it's no wonder he was able to reach this position.

"If this kind of ability is used for assassination in the city, it is simply "invincible"! "

Nero shook his head.

But even so, Nero still gradually raised a smile on his face.

Nero taught Apache earnestly: "You must learn to take a long way, Apache.Don't dislike trouble, sometimes you will find that the long way is the real shortcut when you reach the end after a long circle! "

"...a detour?"

Apache was puzzled.

Nero explained seriously: "We have uncovered the tip of the iceberg of the enemy's abilities, and there may be other "unknown tricks" that have not been revealed.But at this moment, the biggest challenge we face does not come from the ability of the other party, but from how to find the other party-is this thing really difficult for you? "

"!"

Apache's eyes lit up.

Nero looked at Apache seriously: "Next, I will return to Rome, return to the battlefield last night and let your melancholy blues replay "Prosciutto".They are a squad that must have met in the past "short time"!Find Risut the same way we plan to find Hot Boss. "

Speaking of it.

Nero touched the corner of his mouth lightly, his fingers were stained with bright red blood.

"Will it be too much of a fuss?" Apache couldn't help but asked.

"You know what my favorite line is, Apache? It's that line from The Godfather—it's so often the case in this world that the most insignificant man, if he keeps his eyes open, always A chance to avenge those who were invincible.

"So from now on, let's take a long detour."

Apache nodded.

Immediately, the pitch-black car turned its head in the air and flew straight towards the direction of Rome.

Chapter 75 Giotto IV

Probably because one person is named Nero and the other is named Nero, the choices of Nero and Risut at this moment are somewhat similar——

Not urgent.

Most of the battles between stand-in messengers last only a few minutes from the end of the battle, but at this moment, the two sides have not even formally said a word, and they are all ready for a protracted battle.

This is destined to be a difficult battle.

"What would Nero Zeppelin do?"

Sitting in the restaurant, Risut seriously thought about the countermeasures.

Although Risut didn't have any serious education, the experience accumulated over the years has already made him understand the truth of "seeing things from the enemy's point of view".At this moment, Risut is trying to put himself into Nero's perspective, thinking about the other party's next actions.

"He will definitely try to find out my real body. As for the method of finding out my real body, I figured it out as early as when Jiaqiu got the double ability of that Japanese woman. First, I played back a certain member of the team with blues— —The closest ones to Naples are Prosciutto and Bessie in Rome. After that, I will confirm my appearance and track it down.

"The last assassination squad meeting was the day before yesterday——

"Sicily on the night of March [-]th.

"This method is very time-consuming. Even if "Melancholy Blues" can be played fast, Nero Zeppelin still needs to complete the two journeys of "Naples to Rome" and "Rome to Sicily" at least, and the fastest time is [-]:[-] p.m. , Around nine o'clock.

"Ambush near the stronghold? Impossible. The stronghold is in a villa on the outskirts of Sicily, and the surrounding area can be said to be inaccessible. And the "range distance" of my metal products is ten meters. If you want to get the maximum lethality, you must be within five meters!That being the case, they can only ambush on the "road".

"The issue is--

"I don't know the exact trajectory of their activities in Proshout at all."

This is also impossible.

In the entire assassination team, except for Bessie, who is a baby boy who needs his mother to watch over, when the others report to him, they always say "Captain, where did I go to perform the mission", "Captain, I have completed the mission, take over Come down and go to the stronghold to meet" or "Captain, when will you share the money" and the like.

Risut will never let the team members report to him in detail which intersection they turned, which alley they took, which main road they took, and which store they ate in the morning, noon and evening, even if it was Bei West is the same.

Even if one's own mother asks such a question, it can drive people crazy.

What's more, although Bessie is a mother boy, his mother in the team is Proxiet, not him Risut.

"..."

Thinking of this, Risut frowned more and more.

"what should I do?

"Conservatively, Nero Zeppelin still has "eight hours" to determine my real body.At that time, I will be unable to recover from being locked by the radar, so within these eight hours, what should I do to turn the tide of the battle?

"In the next eight hours, the only place where I can be sure that Nero Zeppelin will definitely appear is the stronghold in Sicily.

"Is it only there to meet it?

"But how to deal with it? In order to ensure concealment, the team deliberately chose the villa with few people around it... Wait!"

Risut's eyes lit up.

There is a way.

Putting down a quarter of the pizza left, Risut strode out of the restaurant.

A way to turn the tide of battle has been found.

Risut took out his phone on the spot.

"Boss, I remember being enthusiastic about investing in the film and television industry, right?"

"...?"

Diablo couldn't keep up with Risut's brain circuits.

Didn't you go to fight Qi Beilin? Why did you suddenly ask about this?

"Yes, for adults."

Diablo said as a matter of course.

Although the income is not as much as that of drug trafficking, it was not only an important source of funding for the organization when the enthusiasm was first started, but it is still an important source of income for the organization even today.

Risut was not surprised.

Enthusiasm is an organization that gambles and drugs, how could there be no pornography?

Risut said decisively: "Immediately pull a team of people to the "Assassin Squad's stronghold in Sicily" to shoot a film, the more people the better!Directors, scene managers, photographers, assistants, men, women... fill up the bases.Between now and tomorrow, I demand that the room be full! "

"?"

Do not understand.

Diablo couldn't understand what Risut was thinking at all.

And Risut took a deep breath.

"A few hours later, Nero Zeppelin will track down my stronghold. That is the only place where I can "accurately" confirm the location of Nero Zeppelin in the next period of time.After all, unless the other party is driving in a normal way in order to save energy, once it flies like this, it is impossible to locate his position in real time with the intelligence team's ability, right?

"Intel teams are trash."

"..."

Diablo wasn't angry because he felt the same way.

Risut continued to explain: "At that time, he will use the ability of "Melancholy Blues" in the villa to find my appearance. Not only that, the Japanese woman next to him will be "As long as I remember my appearance, no matter where I hide in the ends of the earth, I will be there." An intelligence system stand-in messenger who can lock you..."

"What did you say?!"

Diablo's voice suddenly rose an octave.

Immediately after a "bang", there was a sound of something knocked over from the microphone, which made Risut stunned.

"boss?"

There was no sound on the phone.

Risut's voice became louder: "Boss...?"

"I'm here."

Diablo responded.

The corner of Risut's mouth slowly raised—you are really nervous, boss!

"...Risut, you said "Japanese woman", remember the face, right?Instead of Nero Zeppelin remember looks? "

"That's right, what's the problem, boss?"

Although Risut pretended not to think there was a problem with this sentence, in fact Risut had an extra thought.

Listening to the meaning of the boss's words, has he met Nero?

Diablo did meet Nero.

Strictly speaking, it was Diablo's other personality, Tobio, who had seen it.That was when he got the "arrow" more than ten years ago and returned to Italy. On a rainy night, Tobio accidentally dropped the arrow to the ground in order to save a unicorn that was about to be crushed by a wheel.

The person who picked up the arrow and was cut by it was Nero Zeppelin.

At first Diablo didn't know who it was.But after Nero Zeppelin's reputation became more and more famous in the underground world, and Diablo gradually listed the SPW consortium as an imaginary enemy, Diablo, who got his information and photos, recognized him at a glance .

Recently, Diablo has realized more clearly that Nero's incomparably tricky substitute "Stairway to Heaven" is a gift he personally gave Nero.

"I'm just asking.

"So what exactly is your plan, Risut?"

Diablo calmly dealt with Risut.

Risut raised his head: "I will mix with these people, so that after Nero Zeppelin steps into my stronghold, he can't lock me in the first place, after all, the investigation of "Melancholy Blues" takes time.As long as these people can delay for me for a few seconds at the first time, I have the confidence to rip his throat open! "

"...Are you sure that Nero won't directly blow up your stronghold?"

"As long as there are innocent people around, he won't do this, at most he will beat everyone! But even so, there is enough time!"

Diablo hung up the phone.

And after Risut sent the address of the assassination team's stronghold, a series of instructions were sent from Diablo——
