Chapter 367: The Masked Man in Black

The sound is intermittent, and if you don't listen carefully, you can't notice it at all. (viii) (i) Ω Chinese .81.

Listening to the frequency of this sound, it is not like a cat or a dog breaking in, but more like a human who touches in at night.

"Is it a thief?" I wondered if I should go out and see who it was, when suddenly a thought crossed my mind that made me startled: "Could it be an assassin?" ”

I remember not long ago, I offended Charles, not only embarrassed him, but also killed two of his men.

Harold once told me that people like Charles are prone to holding grudges, and asked me to strengthen my precautions at home.

Although I listened to his words in my ears and took them to heart, it was not so easy to fortify, and the most difficult question was where to fortify.

People are active, but defenses are immobile, as long as you find a way to bypass or destroy the defense, you can easily infiltrate.

And if you want to make that kind of impregnable defense facilities, first, there are no professional designers, and second, there is not enough money to support them.

Therefore, ideas are ideas, and as soon as they are acted, they are miscarried.

If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't sleep today, I probably wouldn't have broken in at all.

I didn't wake up the sleeping Jackson, his snoring was so loud that it was likely to be heard clearly by the people outside, and if the snoring changed, the Assassins outside would most likely flee quickly.

He took out the straight knife, held the handle of the knife in his hand, walked slowly to the door, put his ear to it, and listened.

The sound is still the same, not far away, not close, intermittent.

I slowly pushed the gate open a small slit, and through the slit, I looked into the courtyard in the direction where the sound came from.

By the moonlight, I saw a man in black wearing a mask, sitting on the wall of my yard, holding a small pebble in his hand, scratching back and forth.

However, with each stroke, he would raise the hand holding the stone, stretch it forward, and fall to the starting point of the previous rowing path, and then row down vigorously again.

It kept repeating, and while repeating, his legs kept shaking, like a child kicking water.

The distance between the courtyard wall and my door is almost ten meters away, and with my explosive power, I can almost kill it in about two seconds, so I am afraid that the person in front of me will be prepared and turn over and lower the wall at the same time as I rush out, which will be a little troublesome.

Seeing that he just kept repeating this action, and didn't make any other moves, I gave up on startling the snakes, but slowly pushed them away, and walked out in a bright light.

Although my movements are calm, however, the knife still has to be carried, this is not only a guy for self-defense, but also a sharp weapon to kill the opponent at any time.

When the people on the wall saw me coming out slowly, they did not flee over the wall, but threw away the stone in their hands, waved their hands at me, and then turned over and jumped off the wall.

I thought about it, and then climbed the wall, and glanced at the wall, there were no ambushes or traps, and at the same time, the black-clad masked man was standing under the wall, waving at me.

I jumped down and stood in front of him, about two meters away from him.

This distance is my best defense distance, and it is also my best attack distance, and I am confident that I can dodge any hidden weapon from the man in black in front of me, and I can also cut off his head in the blink of an eye.

My hand rested casually on the handle of the Naota knife, and there was no expression on my face.

"Why are you so nervous?"

The masked man in black spoke, his voice was soft and nice, it was a woman.

"Who are you?" I asked solemnly.

"It's so cold," the black-clothed masked man laughed coquettishly: "Don't you remember my voice?" ”

This voice is indeed not unfamiliar, I thought about it carefully, and sat down one by one the people I had met and the voices I had heard, and soon, I had a number, but I still remained silent and said, "What are you talking about?" ”

She snorted lightly, as if she was in a little temper: "I remember everything, and I have to pretend that I don't remember, you men are really, all of them are not honest." ”

Since she has broken it, I will no longer pretend to be stupid, and ask directly: "What are you doing at my house?" ”

"I came to your house, of course, to find you," she leaned against the wall, fiddling with something she didn't know.

"What are you looking for me to do?" I asked.

She looked up, met me with a pair of shining eyes, and said, "You really don't know anything?" ”

"Know what?" I frowned slightly, puzzled.

"It seems that you are only good at fighting, but you are weak in other aspects."

"What are you trying to say?" I didn't like to go around in circles, and I was a little upset and said, "If you're just here to taunt me, then you can go back." ”

"Really, you're not a gentleman at all," she snorted.

I stared at her fiddling hands, and said in a lukewarm tone: "I'm not a gentleman, and there's no need to pretend to be a gentleman, if you want to do anything, just say it, and when it's over, I'll go back and rest." ”

Her gasps grew slightly louder, and I felt as if she was holding her breath.

Two minutes later, I didn't say anything, jumped up, jumped directly to the courtyard wall, and was about to go back to the house to rest, but I heard the black-clothed masked man behind me: "Do you really not listen?" This is a matter of great urgency, and it may be at stake for the lives of your companions. ”

I paused, stopped at the top of the wall, thought for a moment, and then jumped down again, and said in an unusually serious voice, "What do you mean by that?" ”

She returned to her tsundere nature again, and I said, "Want to know? Ask me, ask me, and I will tell you. ”

I gritted my teeth, and the knife in my hand was pulled out sharply, flashed, and then quickly retracted again, the whole process was amazingly fast, even I couldn't see clearly, only the phantom flashed.

The black-clothed masked man was stunned for a moment, and then, her headscarf, slowly parted from the middle, like a light veil, slid to the ground, and her hair was black, scattered down, and draped over her shoulders.

Her hands were pointed, not Terran, and her cheeks were thin and elf-like, but I still couldn't tell if she was really an elf.

"One more time, it won't be your headscarf cut off," I said coldly.

There was not the slightest fear in her eyes, but full of anger: "Why, next time you will cut off my head!" Don't forget, I saved your life in the dungeon! Do you treat your savior like this? ”

I listened to her words quietly, the corners of my mouth hooked, and I smiled slightly: "When did I say that I was going to cut off your head, I will just cut off your face and expose your true face in front of me." ”

After saying that, I raised my head, looked at the stars in the sky, and said calmly: "Moreover, even if you don't shoot that arrow that time, I won't be killed by that Rausch Chief's combat skills, at most I will be injured, so, for this, I want to thank you." ”
