S.C.I Mystery vol 1 Chapter 29, The Killer Training Camp 01: Dinner
I was awakened by a heavy thunderclap, opened my sleepy eyes, found the smoke thick, looked around, and realized that I had arrived in the valley of hell.
The Edge.
The dark, deep place was filled with thunderous cries, and I looked down, unable to see anything at all but the depths. - - - "Divine Comedy" - the First Level of Hell
Awakened violently by the cries and screams, and opening his eyes, it was dull darkness, and the dreadful sound was gone without a trace.
Growing a breath, he rose from the bed, briefly dazed.
Shifting to the floor-to-ceiling window, lifting his hand to pull back the heavy curtains... The sun was blinding.
Open the windows and let in the fresh, cold air to disperse the moldy, foul air in the house.
Rubbing the corner of his aching forehead, he turned around and saw the pale walls, speckled with dried blood, splendid as flowers in the sunlight... Sure enough, no matter how ugly things are, when enveloped in the sunlight, they grow holy wings.
I took a bottle of spirits, sat at the window and stared at the sun until it tilted westward, the white rays turning orange and deepening in color...
Turning back again, I saw the spots in the bloody sun, as if they had regained their vitality when they were in the cavity... They were rushing like a gush, and they were so beautiful.
The twilight was deep, and the wine had seen the bottom.
Di~~~~
The computer's display suddenly flashed and an email flew in.
Mechanically, he stood up, walked over to the computer, reached out a somewhat trembling hand to grip the mouse, and clicked on it.
Just one short line.
It's time to wake up the devil! From now on, you are no longer you!
Zhan Yao hurried out of the S City auditorium, "It's over, we are late!"
He had just finished listening to a very important lecture by the world-renowned psychologist Dr. Wilson-Brown on "Human Personality Disorder".
Dr. Wilson is an authority on the subject, and the whole speech was so good that the eager Zhan Yao forgot something important - tonight he is attending the opening dinner of the Bai Jintang Group.
The time of the dinner was 7:00 p.m. It was now 6:30 p.m. He didn't even change his clothes, "Dead ~~ the Bai Family big brother is definitely going to beat someone up!!!"
“Dr. Zhan!"
Zhan Yao, who was anxious, was unfortunately stopped by someone. When he looked up, he saw a young man in a suit coming out of the oblique stab. His looks were a bit cool, hawkish, long eyebrows, pointed chin, very white complexion, mean-spirited in his shrewdness - not recognized.
Zhan Yao faintly froze, but the man laughed: ''Is it really Dr. Zhan Yao? I've heard a lot about you!"
Politely extending his hand, "My name is Pang Yu."
"Oh ~ hello." Zhan Yao reached back and shook his hand, thinking, the name seems to have been heard somewhere, but sure don't know this person... Ignore him!
He wanted to raise his hand and walk quickly, but Pang Yu stopped him and said, "I heard your lecture last time on 'The Causes of Multiple Human Characters' and it was wonderful."
"Thank you very much..." Zhan Yao was anxious, "I'm dead, and now I see a piece of unwanted..."
Still trying to leave, Pang Yu added, "Are you here to hear Dr. Wilson speak too?"
Zhan Yao said heartily, "Nonsense, why else would I come up here? The man has nothing to say!"
He was about to say "I'm in a hurry" when a car horn sounded behind him, and he turned around...
Bai Yutang came out and shouted to him: "Cat'er!"
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry, we'll talk another time." Zhan Yao rushed past the pestering Pang Yu, turned around and charged towards the car.
"What time is it? Big Brother is going to freak out again!!!" Bai Yutang opened the car door for him and handed him a suit of indigo.
"I forgot the time, why are you so late too?" Zhan Yao closed the car door, took off his jacket and put on a suit.
"I knew you forgot when I saw your clothes were still at the station." Bai Yutang reached up and tugged at his collar, "This really isn't a human dress."
Zhan Yao looked at him sidelong, wearing a pure white suit, silver tie, and the whole thing was so white that he couldn't even be white... This rat, his personality doesn't match his looks!
The two made it to the most expensive five-star hotel in S City just before seven o'clock.
The entrance was already full of high-end cars, and the red carpet was rolled out for miles, surrounded by journalists on both sides, making it look like the Avenue of Stars.
Two people get out of the car and want to choose a more isolated and a little less dramatic path to get in.
"How did this happen?" Zhan Yao frowned, saying, "What exactly does your big brother's company do?"
"It's like a hotel." Bai Yutang scratched his head and looked around, "Where do I go?"
"Yah-ah-ah," came a sudden commotion from the crowd not far away, and a sharp shriek from the woman.
Instinctively, Bai Yutang reached for the gun and turned his head to see a blonde foreigner in a black dress walking past on the "Avenue of Stars".
"Those?" Bai Yutang whispered to Zhan Yao who was beside him.
“Yeah..." Zhan Yao shook his head, looking somewhat worriedly at the screaming female creatures in the group.
"Jon King, Hollywood star of the moment." Someone behind them spoke, an identical voice, an identical ensemble.
“Big-Ding, Little-Ding?" Bai Yutang looked back and saw the twins standing behind them with a look of contempt.
"Thought you two would be late!" The twins shrugged their shoulders, "Come on, big brother told us to get you through when you get here!"
...
Follow the twins towards the back, "Doesn't my brother operate an hotel? What's the point of bringing in some stars?" Bai Yutang was a little puzzled.
Big-Ding Little-Ding turned back with a hateful sigh, "Ugh, the Bai Group mainly deals in hotels, catering and entertainment, film and television, and today there is a signing ceremony for the film and Television Company, and that Jon King is a signed actor for the Bai Group."
"Oh~~" Bai Yutang nodded, exchanging the white eyes of the twins: "The boss is at least your own brother, how come you don't know anything about his career?"
"So Big Brother isn't in the mafia?" Zhan Yao came forward and whispered to Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang even reached out to cover his mouth: “Dead-Cat, trying to kill me?" Then, nervously, he looked up and down.
"Is the actor famous?" Zhan Yao was somewhat curious and asked the twins why he had never heard of it?
The twins pressed the top button and squinted at the two, "Don't you two usually watch TV or magazines?"
Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang thought about it and looked at the sky...
The elevator door opened outside the ultra-luxurious ballroom on the top floor of the hotel, and the hall was already filled with well-dressed socialites, although Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang didn't know each other, they could still tell that they should be celebrities... Their bodies were all shiny and shiny.
The four of them stepped out of the elevator, attracting a lot of attention, and Bai Yutang and Bai Jintang's three similar looks caused a small commotion.
A little uncomfortable with being looked at, Bai Yutang turned his face and asked the twins, "Where's my brother, I said hello to Cat'er and went back."
Zhan Yao knew that Bai Yutang disliked such annoying socializing and mingling the most, and nodded along, he had to finish yarding his book tonight, so busy!
"Dare you?" Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao instinctively craned their necks and turned their heads to see that Bai Jintang had arrived at their side at some point.
Tonight's Bai Jintang in a gorgeous black suit, that elite one! That's expensive. Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang sighed in their hearts, "See? That's the real Diamond Five! It's a diamond in the rough!
However, this "Desirable Bachelor" was accompanied by a hot beauty with champagne in one hand, curiously looking at Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao.
"You two stand to the end, too!" Bai Jintang glared.
Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao did not dare to disobey and nodded obediently.
"Which one is your brother?" The beautiful woman beside him suddenly asked.
"Both." Bai Jintang came not so gently, turning to greet a few guests who came on the doorstep, but his eyes involuntarily flicked to a corner of the hall.
Zhan Yao winked at Bai Yutang, meaning, "What happened to your brother? Bad mood, huh?"
Bai Yutang shook his head, looking puzzled at the twins beside him.
Ding Zhaohui and Ding Zhaolan nodded towards the place where Bai Jintang was looking just now, gesturing for the two to look there.
With his eyes everywhere, he saw Gong-sun, champagne in one hand, sitting elegantly on a sofa, chatting with a well-dressed woman, his usual melancholy face, a gentle smile flashing.
“Gong-sun, how come you're here too?" Bai Yutang asked Zhan Yao in astonishment.
Zhan Yao frowned and shook his head, "I clearly saw him tear up the invitation and throw it in the toilet."
Bai Yutang also nodded, "Yeah, and said he wouldn't go to a party thrown by a rich man like this..."
Big-Ding and Little-Ding huffed, just to see Bai Jintang, who had his back in front of him, turn grimly, "He really said that?"
Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang shut their mouths consciously.
"Ahhh, Cat'er ah, would you like a drink?"
"Yeah... I'm feeling a little thirsty too."
... The two men struggled to change the subject.
Bai Jintang Iron Green face turned and walked towards the crowd in the middle of the hall.
Ding Zhaolan whispered, "Gong-sun is being sold by the Bureau Chief."
"What do you mean?" The two were puzzled.
"Because the boss has gifted your police station with a full set of state-of-the-art forensic testing equipment and an intelligent temperature control system on the condition that the Bureau sends Gong-sun to this dinner tonight."
Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang looked at each other and said, "Despicable! Despicable!"
"But!" Ding Zhaohui said mysteriously, “Gong-sun made love to that lady as soon as she came!"
"And!" Zhaolan added, "They seem to be old acquaintances who haven't seen each other in years."
The two looked at each other, shook their heads, and concluded, "Stealing a chicken doesn't get you anywhere."
...
"Her name is Fang Jing." The beautiful woman beside him suddenly interjected, "My economist and the gentleman named Gong-sun are said to be old classmates."
"Oh~~" Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang looked up sympathetically at Bai Jintang, and saw him glance in that direction again...
"This is already the 23rd glance of the night." The beautiful woman with a glass of wine in her hand turned graciously and walked away.
Big-Ding and Little-Ding came up with, "Her name is Chen Jiayi, she's also a signed actress, she's in great shape, right?"
By this time, the banquet guests had almost arrived, and Zhan Yao was surprised to find that Dr. Wilson, who had been giving the afternoon lecture in the Great Hall, was among them. He was talking about something with the star on the Walk of Fame named Jon just now.
Wilson also spotted Zhan Yao and immediately nodded enthusiastically at him.
Out of respect for his elders and academic authority, Zhan Yao took the initiative to shake his hand and greet him, and the unknown Bai Yutang followed suit.
"Ah! Zhan, it's so good to see you!" Wilson, who is in his late sixties, still has that American enthusiasm and energy and is clearly impressed with Zhan Yao, shaking his hand hard and smiling with a smile on his face.
Zhan Yao was about to speak when he saw a red dot suddenly appear on Dr. Wilson's forehead...
...........
"Danger!" Beside him, Bai Yutang gave Wilson a hard shove almost as soon as the red dot appeared.
At the same time, a bloody hole appeared on the shoulder of a man behind Wilson, and red blood gushed out, and the man gave a painful cry and fell to the ground covering his shoulder.
“Ah ah ~ ~ ~" Immediately banquet hall burst of chaos, the ladies were stunned and screaming, shoving crowd running.
Bai Yutang just saw the ghostly red dot instantly climb back up onto the forehead of Jon, who had stayed where he was but was too far away from Jon himself...
"Down!" Just then, Zhaohui flew out to the side and pounced on Jon.
With another "pop", a burnt black hole appeared in the carpet, and a puff of green smoke emerged.
"Get to the wall, all of you!" Bai Yutang shouted, drawing his gun and turning around.
Just beyond the balcony, in the darkness of the night, a clear red dot flashed across the top of the building, which, to the eye, should be 50 meters or more away...
Aiming the gun at the red dot, the muzzle of the gun was then raised 45 degrees.
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out... The sound of the bullet hitting the glass was clear, and after a few seconds, a black sniper rifle fell from the roof of the building opposite, and came into contact with the ground and bounced off, shattering the bones...
