There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game Chapter 190
Chapter 190: Chapter 182: Striking Down My Teammate Chapter 190: Chapter 182: Striking Down My Teammate The aide-de-camp remained silent, his eyes slightly narrowed as he sized up the person in front of him.
In the darkness of the hotel without any lights, only a faint glow from the window above the public restroom sketched out the outlines of two people and a corpse.
The dagger that was just in the other person’s hand was now stuffed into his trouser pocket, with only a dark grey handle showing.
The man’s right knee was half-kneeling on the ground, and the sheathless dagger, pressed against the outline of his thigh by his tight-fitting trousers, made the aide-de-camp touch his own neck uneasily.
Compared to having his throat cut, he felt that the danger just now had not co from this.
The aide-de-camp looked at him and spoke quickly, “The Capital Commandant seed to have suspected you from the start, so it’s not worth wasting ti here.”
The reason he rushed here imdiately was because he was prepared.
The main power switch for the hotel was in the second-floor utility room; if not for the chaos in the lobby that could have hindered him, the Capital Commandant would most certainly have co up to the second floor, whether to investigate the restroom victim or the situation in the utility room.
...
Xu Shuo had already shifted his gaze and continued to check the victim’s features until they basically matched the information of the contact he had received, only then he stopped.
It seems Dr.
Chen Chu is skilled in more than just treating psychological illnesses.
But his contact was indeed no more.
Xu Shuo stood up, turned his head with a smile, and said, “The mont you chose to co here with , we had already wasted ti, and now we can’t leave.”
Upon hearing this, the aide-de-camp involuntarily glanced at the restroom’s window above.
Xu Shuo took out a short cane shortened to ten centiters and said leisurely, “Forget about it.
As soon as the hotel beca surrounded, the sniper positions on surrounding buildings were all set up.
Climbing out would only get you locked in imdiately.”
“Impossible!
From the Commandant Mansion to the hotel, he was right beside the entire ti!” the aide-de-camp blurted out.
“Oh?
So can you be certain that you were together at all tis?” Xu Shuo curled the corner of his lips and tapped the short cane against the wall beside him.
The aide-de-camp intended to say sothing but stopped himself, his complexion growing increasingly unpleasant.
Indeed, not at all tis.
During the ti it took to travel from the hotel back to the Commandant Mansion, he was not present.
And…
No wonder after the hotel was sealed off, the Capital Commandant never went to search the guests imdiately—a ploy to buy ti!
At that ti, the hotel was already surrounded by the military; surely, leaving through the main entrance was not feasible, so the only option left was a side exit.
If anyone had indeed tried to climb out the window at that ti…
That would have been walking right into a trap.
The aide-de-camp frowned, “He never trusted from the start.”
Otherwise, as his duty as an aide-de-camp, he would have known about other contingencies arranged around the hotel.
Xu Shuo retracted the cane, looked towards the restroom entrance with a smile, and said, “What a coincidence, I also didn’t trust you.”
The aide-de-camp didn’t respond to those words, his gaze sharply intensifying, as his hand reached behind and drew out a key, and then a small, neat blade sprang out.
The thing that hit the dagger earlier was probably this.
Xu Shuo also drew his own dagger from his trouser pocket.
The gleaming dagger, although it had just slit the throats of two people, was still spotless and strikingly cold, without a trace of blood.
In fact, his skill had already been activated when he had touched the aide-de-camp at the restroom door monts earlier.
But—[One-Click Kill MISS].
This ant that the aide-de-camp’s rank and strength were at least above his own.
Great, it looks like the bug wasn’t fixed.
However, playing above one’s level ant that with his current strength he could only handle so of the lesser fighters; he would be constrained when facing higher-level players.
Therefore, Xu Shuo very proactively made a “please” gesture towards the aide-de-camp.
The aide-de-camp took out several keys, twisted the chanism to turn them into finger spikes, and slid them onto his fingers one after another, then looked at the man in front of him, who was brimming with smiles, and remained silent.
He knew that he had to gain trust before he could get his hands on that map.
After all, he was the one who had killed the contact.
The soundless stride of soone walking along the corridor was drawing near; the aide-de-camp abruptly charged out of the restroom, rolled nimbly, and his Finger Knife struck towards that shadowy figure!
“Bang!”
A huge gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit the wall.
Imdiately afterward, a whip kick swept toward the stunned adjutant, who quickly blocked the kick, his arms going numb from the impact.
At that mont, a deep laughter ca from the restroom.
Slightly mocking.
The adjutant’s face darkened as his left hand swiftly drew the gun holstered at his waist.
“Bang!”
The person who was close at hand tilted their head in a flash, avoiding the bullet.
The sll of gunpowder lingered around the nostrils as the flash of the gunshot montarily illuminated Capital Commandant’s expressionless face.
Then, the shocking sounds of gunfire continued to echo through the corridor.
The adjutant had thought it would be a close-quarters fight, but his opponent, without saying a word, had drawn a gun!
In the four-ter-wide dark corridor, the vision of both n seed unaffected as they rapidly dodged each other’s attacks and fired simultaneously, while the screams from the servants in the nearby office mingled with the explosive gunshots!
The last soldier on the second floor ran out from the office, but just as he raised his rifle, a person who suddenly appeared slit his throat with a knife!
Blood sprayed out, carrying a fragrant scent.
“Bang!
Bang!”
Two gunshots followed, but this ti one of the bullets was heading toward the restroom area.
Xu Shuo stepped back lightly, and the bullet only hit the soldier falling backward, another stream of bright red liquid blossoming like a flower in an instant.
His face bore a twisted smile that seed sowhat abnormal, his hand playing with a blood-dripping dagger, unstained, as he turned to look in that direction.
Capital Commandant held guns in both hands and discarded the one that had been emptied after the initial shooting.
But the adjutant’s gun was now empty.
There were only seven bullets in total.
He was being pointed at by an expressionless Capital Commandant with a gun barrel.
Although their exchange just now was brief, the intense gunfire had already attracted the attention of the third floor, and the sound of running footsteps ca from both sides of the corridor.
The adjutant stared tightly at the gun barrel before him, his face, usually frivolous with a smirk, now devoid of any superfluous expression.
From beginning to end, Capital Commandant hadn’t said a word, seeming to have no thoughts on his adjutant committing such an act, nor any desire to understand.
Xu Shuo took two tablets from his left trouser pocket, checked his own ti, and then turned to walk toward the right side of the corridor.
Adjutant: “???”
I’m here in a life-and-death standoff, and you just turn and walk away?
“Hey…”
He couldn’t help but speak out, his eyes glancing over there from the corner of his view.
Xu Shuo, avoiding the bloodstains on the ground, calmly said, “You guys keep fighting, I’m heading to the other side.”
The next mont, Capital Commandant fiercely turned the gun barrel toward him, sparks flew, and the bullet whizzed out!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The three quick successive shots ca speeding through, and Xu Shuo, who was facing away from them, leaned his body to the side and kept retreating until his back was against the wall.
“Enemy attack!”
Shouts ca from the darkness.
Soon after, dense gunfire erupted as several bullets were fired from the end of the right corridor, recklessly whizzing up and down the four-ter-wide passage!
Capital Commandant and his adjutant, who had been standing in the middle of the corridor, were startled and quickly dropped to the ground!
Then, other soldiers’ shouts ca from the left side of the corridor.
“Don’t shoot!
It’s us!”
However, bullets that had already been fired couldn’t be stopped, and the people caught off guard on the opposite side were hit, collapsing with screams.
Sudden chaos erupted in the darkness.
Xu Shuo leaned against the wall, laughing softly to himself.
