Late at night, Shichidanzaka, Banyoda-ku, Kyoto.

It is a huge compound between high-rise buildings. It is surrounded by the residences of numerous large international companies, and in the middle, a series of buildings in the ancient style are the main ones. The wide square, the tall gatehouse, the magnificent temple, surrounded by green trees, appear mysterious and eerie, and the surrounding high-rise buildings show a huge contrast, especially in the cover of night, this contrast is particularly strong.

In Kyoto City, where every inch of land is at a premium, such a courtyard is simply a waste. But in fact, there has never been a proposal to demolish the compound to make more land available for more modern buildings that can accommodate more people.

Because this is the Dingkuni Shrine.

In the eyes of the vast majority of people, this is the representative of the national spirit of Jeppen.

The shrine was built nearly 200 years ago as the Kyoto Spiritualist Shrine to commemorate the soldiers who died trying to restore the emperor's power during the so-called Akihito Restoration. Soon after, at the request of the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Kyoto Spiritualist Shrine was renamed the Jokuni Shrine, and was specially given the status of a Bege official shrine, becoming a shrine where the emperor directly worshipped, invisibly raising the spiritual status enshrined in it to the status of "god".

After the last world war, due to pressure from the Minnesia Federation, the shrine was changed to a religious corporation, and the Goshojin Church, which lost its status as a state religion due to the separation of government and religion, was in charge of management.

However, in contrast to ordinary shrines, which are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Jokoku Shrine is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defense and has the nature of a military installation, so it is not considered a religion in the minds of the general public. Over the next 200 years, the number of shrines gradually increased. The shrines of the dead in the empire's previous foreign wars are all enshrined. A total of more than 2.5 million people.

Because of this, it has actually become a place for the souls of militarists, a sustenance and symbol of the "patriotic" spirit of many imperial citizens, and in the eyes of neighboring countries that have suffered from Jeppen's aggression, this is where the immortal abyss of Jeppen's militaristic heart lies! Especially in the 70s of the last century, after 14 Class A war criminals and more than 2,000 Class B and C war criminals in World War II were enshrined here, the Dingguo Shrine has become a place hated by all people in the world who have even a little conscience.

Damn, I've never seen such a shameless nation that worships murderers as gods, this nation is simply a disgrace to mankind! Especially those politicians who don't know shame. Every year, there is also a large-scale public worship of ghosts, which makes all neighboring countries as disgusting as if they had eaten flies.

Lei Dong lay on the windowsill of a bathroom in a building not far away, carefully observing the tower hall in the Dingguo Shrine.

Although the model building of the Dingguo Shrine was also touched during the simulation training before departure, it was not used as a place for battle in the original battle plan, and this area was only used as a general familiar location. But now, since you want to snipe Takenori Ohno here, you must re-conduct a detailed reconnaissance. Choose the right sniper point and draw up a detailed retreat route. At the same time, if given the opportunity, Lei Dong does not mind giving this militarist spiritual symbolic land. Let's do it for a moment.

As early as this afternoon, Lei Dong and Bei Shiliang dressed up as tourists and had a good "tour" in the neighborhood. In the end, the building where it is located was selected as a sniper point. This is not a special and eye-catching office building. It's relatively far away from the Dingkuni Shrine, and the view is not particularly good. There are several buildings in front of you, blocking the view, and only in this bathroom can you barely find an angle to aim at the main hall of the Seokuni Shrine.

But it is precisely for this reason that this is not the focus of security, and it will not be taken special care by the guards, and in time, it will be the guard helicopter that constantly patrols the air, and it will not notice that a sniper rifle sticks out of a certain bathroom.

The mentality of the Jiepeng people is strange, not only the family house, but even in this office building, the bathroom is extremely comfortable and elegant. The large vanities are even decorated with solid wood, and the windows are large and have good light, unlike washrooms in other countries, which are either not at all or small even if they are. This is simply too much for the thunderous mind - at least to be able to find a relatively comfortable firing position in the window.

Lei Dong gently pushed open the window of the bathroom, held the sniper rifle in his arms, put the barrel directly on the window lattice, put his eyes on the scope, and tried to aim at the main hall of the Dingkuni Shrine.

The main hall is the place where the shrine of the Heungkoku Shrine is enshrined, and the spiritual seats of the 14 Class-A war criminals are placed in the main hall, and tomorrow's worship of Kishisuke Shinzo will definitely be carried out here, because as we all know, the spiritual seat of Kishisuke Shinzo's maternal grandfather, Abe Shinun, who also served as prime minister, is enshrined in it - this old guy is also one of the 14 Class-A war criminals!

"Wind four, correction two." Bei Shiliang stretched out his hand to test the wind and reported softly. On high-rise buildings, this can be the biggest inconvenience, and the wind can have a big impact on shooting. Lei Dong grabbed the grip of the M50 with his right hand, gently put his middle finger on the trigger, exerted a slight force, and made a soft "bang" sound in his mouth.

"Good!" Lei Dong whispered to himself with satisfaction, as if he saw a bullet shot from the chamber of the gun, accurately tearing apart Takenori Ohno's chest.

Put away the M50 sniper rifle, remove the ceiling element on the top of the bathroom, and gently put the special suitcase inside. Bei Shiliang was cold, and he shivered with excitement all over his body.

Originally, Lei Dong, who was wearing a space ring on his body, had no need to make any suitcases or anything like that, but Lei Dong insisted on carrying this box, and said in a hearty manner, wouldn't it leave a little clue to the police of Jiepeng to solve the case? How inhumane that is! But if you want to leave a clue for others, why put a bomb in this box that is enough to blow a dozen people to pieces?

"Scolding Lao Tzu every day is an explosion maniac, but in fact, you are!" Beshiliang was slandered.

As if knowing what Bei Shiliang was thinking, Lei Dong patted Bei Shiliang on the shoulder. He grinned and said, "Look, I'm not going to leave some clues." That's not saving face for the police, but I'm not going to put something on it. Isn't that just not giving yourself face? The dark and bright eyes of Lei Dong gave an eerie light, and his grinning expression was completely two extremes, "Is it possible that a terrorist who can snipe a high-ranking official of the Ministry of Defense in front of a large public is so unskilled?" ”

Bei Shiliang looked at the grinning thunder and was speechless for a while. Lei Dong put his arm around Bei Shiliang's shoulders and smiled: "Okay, don't worry about this problem, let's go down!" ”

It has to be said that Kyoto City's drainage and flood control system is indeed worthy of its name, and it has been damaged so much. In less than 48 hours, the flood water has receded, and in most parts of the room, the water is less than 30 centimeters. In the area around the Nagakuni Shrine, many places have been exposed to the ground due to the high terrain.

Lei Dong and Bei Shiliang sneaked out of the office building, and ghosts generally appeared outside the gate of Dingguo Shrine.

According to the regulations of the Jeppen Imperial Guard, before the prime minister-level dignitaries go on patrol, the security forces will conduct a detailed survey of the area around the scheduled patrol location. Do all the vigilance three hours in advance. It's about two o'clock in the morning, and there are still about three hours before the security forces are dispatched, and Lei Dong and Bei Shiliang have to do it. It is to complete the reconnaissance of the inside of the Dingguo Shrine before this, find the possible focus of the security team and the parts that may be relatively negligent in defense, and add the last bit of guarantee for tomorrow's operation.

Jokoku Shrine is a traditional Jepon style courtyard. There is only a low wall on the outside, and the "Shinmon" in the middle, the shrine gate, is like a tall torii. Two large white antique lanterns hang on both sides of the gate. The buildings and halls are neatly arranged in a certain order in the courtyard of Nuoda.

During the daytime reconnaissance, Lei Dong and Bei Shiliang found that the spiritual sustenance of the Jiepeng Empire was not as heavily guarded as people imagined, and there were no cameras and other monitoring facilities on the surrounding walls. The use of oil lamps instead of lighting them has always been a tradition at the shrine and is said to be a devout worship of the deceased spirits and gods.

But now, what this dim light brings to Thunder and Beshi is only the concealment of reconnaissance.

When you enter the shrine from the "Shrine Gate", you will be greeted by a large plaza. The square is paved with hard marble and surrounded by a white marble fence. Originally, it was only a place for ordinary people to hold festivals and worship ceremonies, and at the same time to provide convenience for tourists to rest, but in recent years, as the entire folk ideology of Jiepeng has become more and more right-wing, there have been more and more parades and performances of all kinds, and the most hateful of them is the performance of disguised as devil soldiers during the war of aggression, swaggering here, and summoning the soul of militarism.

In front of the square, is a huge palace-like building "You Shu Hall", its name comes from the work of Xunzi, a representative of the famous Confucian school of Chakner, "the old gentleman must choose the hometown, and the tour must be on the soil, so the anti-evil and close to the Zhongzheng" sentence, is the largest military museum of Jiepeng, including the Dingguo Divine Consciousness History Museum, the War Museum and the Imperial Pavilion three parts, the main exhibition content is the relics of the gods, materials, and the weapons, military relics and soldier materials used by Jiepeng in the previous internal and foreign wars, a total of about 10 nights, and more than 5,000 posthumous photos of military personnel.

Bypassing the Yushokan, there is the main hall of the Jokuni Shrine, the destination of the operation, which is also the most hated place for the Republic. This tall and spacious hall houses 14 Class A war criminals and more than 2.5 million soldiers who died in the war. Small, densely packed name tags crowded the walls and spiritual platforms in the main hall.

Lei Dong and Bei Shiliang's actions were swift and hidden, and they were investigating the locations inside the Dingguo Shrine one by one. It's just that Bei Shiliang's performance is very strange, while observing around, he has a sad face, and he can't wait to look up to the sky and sigh.

Lei Dong saw at a glance what this guy had in mind, and said softly: "Damn, you still don't think about beautiful things!" Do your job well! ”

Bei Shiliang said with a bitter face: "Boss, can't you save some face for me, heroes are useless, do you know how miserable it is?" ”

Lei Dong pursed his lips and ignored him. In fact, even if Lei moves himself, why don't you want to throw a powerful bomb or something here, blow this place into ruins, and see where the little devil Nima will go to worship the ghost in the future!

But. The two of them know better that tomorrow Kishisuke Shinzo will bring a large number of cabinet members to pay homage. The security team will definitely "clean up" the place thoroughly, and maybe dig into the ground to check for suspicious items. Not to mention putting a few bombs, even if it is, it will only be discovered in minutes!

However, it is because of this that Bei Shiliang is such a ghost, this explosive maniac who thinks about putting bombs at every turn, seeing such a convenient place to carry out blasting, but he can't do it at all, and the depression in his heart can be imagined.

". It's a pity and loneliness! Bei Shiliang sighed, suddenly seemed to remember something, and his eyes lit up and said, "You said that after killing that Humpty Dumpty tomorrow, can you shoot a high-explosive bomb here?" Or, do you have any VBX gas bombs left? ”

"Get out!" Lei Dong kicked at Bei Shiliang angrily, do you think VBX is a glass ball, which can be thrown everywhere casually? Even if there is indeed a shoulder-mounted individual guided missile launcher in the space ring, which can hit the poison gas bomb in front of the main hall, but how loud is that guy when he launches it? I'm afraid that I can be locked by the realm troops in an instant. When the time comes, where will you run in broad daylight?

However, Lei Dong's foot had just left the ground. But he suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"That's not right!" Lei Dong exclaimed in a low voice, "Do you feel anything?" ”

"What?" Bei Shiliang looked around and soon realized that something was wrong. Pointing to the main hall opposite, he shouted, "There! ”

In fact, without Bei Shiliang's guidance, Lei Dong has already discovered it. Just as he was about to kick Bei Shiliang, a faint mist suddenly rose around the main hall. The mist came very suddenly, as if someone had pressed a switch, and suddenly rose from all around, and soon became thicker and thicker, covering the main hall all over the world, and then spreading rapidly in all directions.

What surprised Lei Dong even more was that under You's eyes, the same mist was rising around the entire Dingguo Shrine, and soon the entire shrine was shrouded in fog, and the originally clear scene quickly became foggy.

And this strand of mist spread and converged rapidly, and in just a moment, it merged into one, and there was no boundary, and in the mist, the aura of heaven and earth with agility and familiarity fluctuated abnormally!

Night Guard! It's Night Guardian again!

A huge sense of crisis suddenly hit Lei Dong's heart, and he shouted: "Trap! Be careful! With a wave of both hands, two guns appeared in his hands, and they fell into Bei Shiliang's arms like lightning, and in another flash, an M80 general-purpose machine gun had appeared in his hand.

"Huh? Storage rings? It's actually a storage ring! Stay for me! "A voice too old to make out of age sounded behind the fog. At the same time, a cold light had silently appeared in front of Lei Dong's body, and it was straight into Lei Dong's eyes.

"Reunion!" Thunder burst out, his head was like lightning, and he dodged the cold light when he couldn't make a move, and two high-explosive grenades were thrown out in the direction of speaking, but the M80 general-purpose machine gun fired three short shots in succession at nine o'clock, eleven o'clock, and seven o'clock behind Bei Shiliang. Three low exclamations rang out one after another at three o'clock, and then there was no sound. Beshiliang

"Boom! Rumble! The grenade exploded dozens of meters away, under the influence of the dense fog and aura of the "Night Guard", the explosion sounded a little dull, and faintly, a figure was felt in the consciousness flying up into the sky, and instantly leaped backwards more than ten meters away, which was able to avoid the air waves and the steel balls that splashed like a scoop.

Bei Shiliang rolled on the ground, and the M80 in his hand shot at Lei Dong's back, and a figure fell to the ground with a pop. The muzzle of the MP9 gun in the other hand shone with a huge ball of light, pouring bullets in all directions.

Lei waved his right hand continuously, more than a dozen grenades were smashed out in several directions around him at almost the same time, and the sound of explosions sounded one after another, and the surging air waves covered a large 'space', and then M80 continuously spat out tongues of fire, and with a flip of his left hand, a huge single soldier carrying device was thrown towards Bei Shiliang.

"Next!" Lei Dong shouted, and another MP9 appeared in his left hand, covering Bei Shiliang's flank and rear.

Lei Dong understands that in the dark night fog, people's divine consciousness and facial perception will be greatly affected, and Bei Shiliang does not have a strong divine sense cultivation like himself, fortunately, he is alert early, and before the other party launches an attack, he will take the lead and force a large number of killers lurking in the fog to dodge constantly, otherwise in just a few seconds, I am afraid that it will be enough for the enemy in the dark to launch several fatal blows to Bei Shiliang.

But as the battle progresses, the enemy will eventually have a time to stabilize his position and launch a counterattack, and in such a fog, in addition to relying on his own reminder and protection, Bei Shiliang is more to ensure continuous fire suppression in order to ensure his own safety.

This is also the reason why Lei Dong threw the carrying gear full of ammunition to Bei Shiliang at the first time. And he wants to ensure his safety before Bei Shiliang completes the rearmament!

Under the cover of Lei Dong's powerful firepower, Bei Shiliang shot while putting on his carrying gear.

In just two seconds, the mountain-like carrying gear was already firmly on Bei Shiliang's body, "Okay!" Bei Shiliang shouted, and the two guns in his hands began to spit flames desperately. (To be continued.) )
