Chapter 438: Wall Tour
Conquer the northern coast of the sea, Troyes.
In Troyes at night, the whole city fell into silence. Somewhere in the suburbs of this dark city, in a room of a small villa near the sea, a figure was sitting inside, reading by candlelight.
Sitting on the sofa by the window, a handsome young man was reading a book in his hand in the dim light, listening to the sound of the tide outside the window, with a slight tiredness on his face.
With the ticking sound of the clock on the wall, time passed by minute by minute. As the night deepened, the young man who was reading yawned, then took out a pocket watch to check the time, closed the book and put it back into the bag on the cabinet beside him.
Then, the young man stood up from his seat, walked into the bathroom in three or two steps, washed up simply, and then returned to the room. After taking off his coat and trousers, he turned off the gas lamp in the room, lay down on the soft big bed, covered himself with the quilt, and fell into a deep sleep in the rhythmic waves outside the window.
The young man fell asleep, and the clock on the wall continued to tick. As time passed, the moon outside the window reached its zenith, and the night in Troyes became even darker.
Almost an hour after the young man fell asleep, a slight movement gradually appeared in the empty and dark room. On the originally flat wall, a strange bulge suddenly appeared. As the bulge expanded, a figure emerged from the wall.
Silently, a thin man in black clothes and a mask appeared in the room. After looking around the dark room, he focused his gaze on the other wall of the room. Then, that wall also showed a slight movement. Soon after, the wall he was looking at also moved. Another taller figure silently emerged from the wall and stood on the floor.
In a strange way, two masked men came into this house, which should have been a private space. After looking at each other, they slowly approached the bed in the room without making any sound during the process.
They came to the bedside, and one of them stared at the young man lying on the bed for a while, then took out a small bottle from his pocket. He gently put the bottle under the young man's nose and unscrewed the lid. Then a burst of white smoke came out of the bottle, and then all the white smoke was inhaled by the sleeping young man.
After seeing that the white smoke was inhaled by the young man, the man screwed on the small bottle, then waited silently for a few minutes. After looking at the time, he snapped his fingers in the man's ear. Seeing that the man did not wake up because of the snap but continued to sleep soundly, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, he has successfully entered a deep sleep." After putting away the small bottle in his hand, the thinner masked man spoke, and his companion beside him also spoke.
"It's a bit easy. Is this the guy we've been paying special attention to? It doesn't seem to be a big deal. He seems to be similar to the guy who attacked before. There's no need to send two of us here at this time."
"I am just being cautious. Someone who can buy three tons of biography in one go is probably not an ordinary Beyonder. Now it seems that you are worrying too much, sir."
The thin man responded to his companion beside him. After glancing around again, he continued speaking.
"Let's get started, quickly. After you've taken everything off his body, separate the man and the items. Don't leave anything on him."
As they were talking, the two men immediately started moving. The stronger one among them searched the young man's suitcase first, while the thinner one immediately started searching the young man's coat hanging on the hanger nearby. After searching the coat on the hanger, he even lifted the quilt and began searching the young man who was sleeping in his underwear.
"The trolley he bought is not found, and other than that there are only a pistol and some groceries. I don't see anything special. He seems like a poor guy. What about yours?" The man who was searching the suitcase with a lantern emitting an orange-yellow halo in his hand said this as he looked at the messy suitcase in front of him.
"I didn't find anything special here, but now is not the time to confirm the harvest... I'll take everything off his body and take a picture first..."
As he spoke, the man who was searching the young man began to strip off his clothes. He carefully took off the things the young man was wearing piece by piece. Finally, when he took off the young man's innermost clothes and looked at his chest, he couldn't help but frowned slightly.
“This is…”
What appeared before the young man's eyes at this time was a male body covered with many deep old wounds. There were many wounds crisscrossing on the young man's skin, some of which were even in fatal positions. After seeing these wounds, the man felt that something was wrong for a moment.
"No... There's something wrong with this guy's body. He seems..."
Before the thin man could finish his words, the young man, who should have been in a deep sleep, suddenly opened his eyes. When the man turned his head to talk, the young man suddenly sat up from his bed, stretched out his hands and hugged the thin man tightly, clamping him with such great strength that he could not move.
While being tackled, a tingling sensation spread throughout the skinny man's body. The man began to tremble uncontrollably in the pain, his eyes widened and an expression of pain emerged. However, even so, the skinny man did not lose consciousness immediately, and his struggle did not completely stop. The young man named Brandon had no choice but to use all his strength to continue to clamp him.
“Wuwuwu…”
Faced with the sudden scene, the thin man began to struggle hard, trying to get rid of the sudden clamp. However, due to the opponent's great strength, his struggle was not enough to free him from the restraints. The stronger man who was searching for something on the other side was shocked when he saw this, and immediately put down his work, pulled out a knife and planned to rush forward to help.
At this moment, the wardrobe in the room suddenly opened, and several tall corpses in different clothes came out of it. The leader of them was holding a pistol in his hand. When he saw the sturdy man preparing to help his companion, he raised his hand and fired two shots without saying a word. With a loud gunshot, the shot accurately hit the sturdy man's chest. The man who was shot fell down immediately, and then the corpses rushed out of the wardrobe one after another, grabbing the sturdy man on the ground and running away quickly.
However, what was unexpected was that the sturdy man who was shot was still able to move. Before the zombies rushed to him, he struggled to stand up and dodged the first round of attacks from the zombies in the closet.
The first round of attacks failed to capture the sturdy man, and the zombies in the closet immediately launched the next round of attack, pouncing on the sturdy man collectively, as if they wanted to trap him in the corner and capture him. Faced with this situation, the sturdy man leaned against the wall behind him and hid in the wall. For a moment, all the zombies were empty-handed.
The sturdy man disappeared in the room, but he appeared again soon. Far away from the zombies in the closet, next to Brandon who was clamping the thin man, the sturdy man rose from under the floor, holding a dagger in his hand and slashing Brandon. The sturdy man's idea was very clear, that is to kill the young man first and free his trapped teammate!
