Chapter 130 Tell me, brother, where is your sister-in-law?
Deep underground in Genji Heavy Industries, deeper than the Ganliu Research Institute and the Iron Dome Temple, the sound of water splashing in the pipes can be heard constantly.
The faint sound of the ventilation fan quietly lingered in the empty and dark hall. Apart from that, there was no other sound, as if some indescribable monster was lurking here, frightening all the villains.
The elevator door opened, and a tall dark figure walked into the pitch-black silence.
“Tap, tap, tap…”
The sound of steady footsteps echoed in the hall, and the wall in front suddenly lit up. A huge wall about seven or eight meters high emitted a faint blue light.
The blue light illuminated the true appearance of the black shadow, which was a solemn-looking white-haired old man dressed in a black kimono. His every move and gesture exuded the aura of a gangster giant.
However, underworld bosses generally do not kill people themselves to silence them or destroy the bodies.
The white-haired old man was carrying a long, large black bag and stopped in front of the "wall" emitting blue light.
This wall is actually a glass wall on the side of a huge water tank. It is made up of hundreds of pieces of glass of approximately one square meter in size, connected to each other by metal frames.
"In my hometown lives a lovely girl, her name is Erica~ She is my dearest one, she brings me luck, Erica..."
The white-haired old man seemed to be in a good mood. There was visible satisfaction on his wrinkled face. He was humming "Erika", a ballad widely sung among the German people and the army during World War II.
His singing voice sounded full of energy and emotion for Erica.
The black body bag was opened, revealing a pretty face with pale complexion and lifeless eyes. The old man reached out and touched the face, which still had some warmth, with a bit of pity in his eyes, as if he was lamenting why beautiful things always pass away so quickly.
The zipper was unzipped, revealing a naked young woman with bite marks and various unsightly marks all over her beautiful body, exposed to the damp and cold air.
She just lay quietly in the body bag, her lifeless eyes devoid of any light, only reflecting the endless darkness.
The singing paused, the old man took out a dagger from his arms, cut off a strand of the girl's straight long hair, and put it away carefully in his arms.
He reached out and touched the almost purple palm print on the girl's neck, with a look of regret on his face: "What a pity! I originally wanted to give them another companion."
The sound of water splashing came from deep within the giant water tank. The voice of the white-haired old man and the sudden light startled the creatures hiding in the tank, and they were approaching rapidly.
They are large aquatic animals that swim at high speed in a giant fish tank comparable to an aquarium, leaving behind a series of whirlpools with their long tails.
It was a school of fish, a school of big fish, a school of fish with snake tails and human faces.
These human-faced fish swam to the glass wall, and their pale faces like floating corpses stuck to it, staring at the white-haired old man and the seductive female corpse in his hand with a pair of red-gold eyes.
"Don't worry, she will be back to accompany you soon." The old man seemed to be comforting a hungry child to be patient, carrying the female corpse to the back of the hall.
Soon, a huge splash of water appeared in the giant water tank where the human-faced fish were kept. The female corpse carrying the genetic genes of two people fell into the school of fish and was instantly covered by countless pale shadows.
The white-haired old man quietly admired the scene of the fish eating. The bright red blood spread like ink in the water tank. Countless long tails were swaying, as if a naughty child was cleaning a wolf hair brush that was full of stray hair and solidified pigment in the pool.
A severed finger was thrown out from the red ink halo. It was a ring finger, and there were traces of a ring worn for a long time on the fingertip.
This is an engaged girl who is on a spontaneous romantic trip with her lover, but she obviously has no idea that her life will come to an abrupt end on this single journey.
“Crack!”
A human-faced fish discovered the food residue, stepped forward and grabbed it into its mouth. Its shark-like sharp teeth easily crushed the finger bones and swallowed it whole.
"Eat, eat. New food will be here soon."
The old man chuckled, turned around and walked away at a leisurely pace, humming the song again: "A small flower blooms in the wilderness, her name is Erica~ Thousands of small bees compete to fly to Erica..."
The elevator door closed, and the blue lights on the glass wall gradually dimmed. The only sound in the dark space was the teeth-grinding crunching of bones breaking.
…
"I have a question."
Old Tang raised his hand, like a good student speaking politely in class, and pointed at the gleaming "Takamagahara" sign across the street and said loudly:
"Aren't we going to fuck the Sheqi Eight Clan? Why are we here in a gigolo parlor?"
Although America is open and has many blooming daisies, his sexual orientation is very normal.
Moreover, during the most difficult period of his life, he never considered selling his chastity for the sake of pleasure.
"Don't get excited. This is currently the most suitable passage to enter Genji Heavy Industries from the outside." Lu Mingfei hid in the shadows, checked his equipment again, and strode forward.
In order to avoid any further complications, Lu Mingfei decided to take the initiative and take his wife into his hands first.
No matter what means are used, everything will be fine as long as the person is in our hands.
They had already encountered an assassination attempt. Everyone in the Eight Clans of Sheqi knew that the things around their necks were not just for decoration. They all knew to step up their guard to prevent their distinguished guests from being kidnapped by fierce ghosts like Tang Monk.
Unfortunately, the distinguished guest has legs and feet and can walk.
Lu Mingfei and the other two used Jiude Mai's Word Spirit, the Dark Illumination, to avoid the spies arranged by the Sheqi Eight Clan near the Peninsula Hotel and slipped out from under their noses in a swagger.
The Peninsula Hotel where they were staying was located in Chiyoda, a bit far from Genji Heavy Industries. It might take until late at night to get there from the sewers.
According to Mai Shude's previous investigation, she found that the most suitable sewer entrance was located under a gigolo club.
It was said that the gigolo shop was too extravagant and wasteful, making money far less than it spent, and the owner owed huge debts and was on the verge of bankruptcy.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Lu Mingfei. They are just here to pass through, not to do charity.
And even if it's for charity, who the hell would show their love in a gigolo bar?
The Takamagahara nightclub was magnificent and grand. Two extremely flamboyantly dressed waiters stood at the door to welcome the distinguished guests. Their voices were full of magnetism that tempted people to commit crimes.
Lu Mingfei and his three companions were lurking in the dark realm. Just before they approached the gate of Takama-ga-hara, the lights at the door suddenly flickered wildly.
The two waiters hurried to check if there was anything wrong with the line, while Lu Mingfei and his friends took the opportunity to walk into the nightclub which was filled with laughter.
Their attire at that moment was not suitable for walking in openly, as it would easily cause panic among the gigolos.
Old Tang took a look at the women in the booths who were dressed brightly and chatting and laughing with the handsome gigolos, and found that there were many young and beautiful girls, mature and intellectual ladies, and even wealthy ladies who were older but well-maintained.
"It's different from what I imagined. I thought they would hug each other and chew on it."
Mai Jiude, who was walking in the front, chuckled when she heard this: "We usually call that kind of place a bar or nightclub, not a nightclub. For a place as large as Takamagahara, selling art instead of body is the basic principle."
"No take-out service?" Old Tang was curious. In the United States, no matter how high-end the club is, it is still a service industry. As long as you pay enough money, you can waste the night as you like.
Even if the club doesn’t allow it, you can still take it home and enjoy it slowly.
As soon as he said this, he immediately received Lu Mingfei's attention: "Why do you still want to bring a gigolo back with you?"
"How is that possible? I'm just curious!"
"If you're curious, you can consider applying for a job here and experience it for yourself." Jiude Mai pressed the elevator button and walked in first.
"Forget it, I'm not cut out for that." Old Tang shook his head. He had indeed learned a lot from those brothers when they were hanging out in bars.
But nightclubs in Brooklyn's slums are usually straightforward, and sometimes a fight can start in the back alley just by making eye contact. If he used his little ability to pick up girls on these love-starved women, he would easily be fired on the spot.
Ordinary elevators can only reach the first underground floor, but freight elevators can reach the second underground floor.
The door opened, and a long-abandoned, dry smell filled the dark underground space.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Lu Mingfei turned on the flashlight and illuminated the statue of the Virgin Mary that had been covered in dust for many years.
"What's going on? Do gigolos need to hold regular services and masses?" Old Tang looked around the second underground floor and found that apart from the statue of the Virgin Mary, the most eye-catching thing was the giant cross that was almost five meters high.
The discolored clergy robes were hung above, and in the corners were piled up parts of an organ and a pulpit.
"How rare! Who says gigolos can't believe in religion? Maybe they can do some cosplay." Lu Mingfei said casually and followed Jiude Mai to the corner of the hall.
There is a manhole here, and the old cast iron manhole cover covers the manhole tightly. Jiude Mai glanced at him and said, "Do you want to do it or should I?"
She had moved it before. This thing was ten centimeters thick and so heavy that it made people grimace in dismay.
"Let me try." Lu Mingfei stepped forward. After awakening his bloodline, he felt that his body was undergoing new changes every day. Now, even he himself could not be sure to what extent his body had been strengthened.
To be on the safe side, he grabbed the rusty cast iron manhole cover with both hands, concentrated his energy on his dantian, united his waist and horse, and with a shout, he immediately lifted the manhole cover.
"It's okay, not too heavy." Lu Mingfei put it aside and leaned over to look at the gurgling water in the dark.
They walked down the iron ladder into the sewer, where they saw a semicircular old pipe paved with mossy brick walls, a canal in the middle and narrow paths on both sides for walking. They walked slowly in this slippery path.
"This place is much more shabby than that damn Iron Dome Temple." Old Tang muttered. He thought this place would be as clean and tidy as the water purification system in the basement of Genji Heavy Industries.
"Rome wasn't built in a day, and the sewers weren't built in one go. We're now in an antique sewer that's a hundred years old." Jiude Mai raised her mask and said in a light voice:
"The Shinjuku subway station is one mile ahead. There is a giant turbine there. We will enter the Iron Dome Temple after passing through the turbine hole."
The giant turbine with a diameter of more than three meters looked very scary, but no one was worried about how to pass through it safely. Jiude Mai had already explained all the precautions to them.
After waiting for the turbine to stop running, they quickly passed through the duct and entered the Iron Dome Temple.
In the pitch-black environment, with the cover of the Dark Illumination Realm, the four people were like entering an empty space.
Neither the guards patrolling the Iron Dome Temple nor the half-breeds armed to the teeth standing guard at the entrance of the Rock Flow Research Institute were able to discover that there was a group of people hiding in the shadows and secretly spying on them.
Soon, a miniature submarine broke through the turbulent water. It was the vehicle used by the Sheqi Eight Clan to transport contraband items.
"The timing is very accurate." Lu Mingfei gave Jiude Mai a thumbs up. While the guards from the Sheqi Eight Families were directing the unloading, the four of them quietly approached the airtight door on the pipe wall.
After the white coats who came out to receive the goods began to disinfect, the four of them climbed up the stairs and passed through the airtight door, easily sneaking into Genji Heavy Industries.
The infiltration process was smooth and easy, as if the Fengling Yueying modifier was turned on.
As a high-level player, Lu Mingfei always looks down on cheating, but Earth OnLine is an exception.
This is not the road that we took to visit the Rock Flow Research Institute during the day, but it is undoubtedly an inner area, and the elevator can be used freely in the building.
"Pick a lucky number, male guest." Jiude Mai released the Word Spirit: Dark Illumination and crossed her arms to signal Lu Mingfei to randomly select a floor from the more than fifty buttons.
Subconsciously, Lu Mingfei was about to reach out to call for orders, but at this moment his phone suddenly vibrated, and a new message popped up on the iPhone that had been silent for a long time.
"Brother, although I don't know when you found your crush, I must remind you that this elevator cannot reach your crush's room."
Lu Mingfei was slightly stunned when he saw the message, then he pressed the close button and quickly typed a reply: "Do you know where your sister-in-law is?"
This kid Aze has disappeared since I hugged him that night. I don’t know if he is shy or for some other reason, but he just hides himself and refuses to see anyone. No matter how I call him, he doesn’t respond.
He suddenly popped up today, obviously not just to prove that he was still alive.
Moreover, he knew where Eri was, but Su Enxi and Jude Mai didn't know much about Genji Heavy Industries, so they had to sneak in personally.
This means that the kid is likely to have some ability to ignore space and environment, and there are many things he is hiding and unwilling to say directly.
Didn't the brat study in Gotham? Why not learn the Riddler? Be careful that Batman will put you in Arkham...
Never mind, he's still a child, he shouldn't have committed such a crime.
Soon, the phone received a new reply: a distorted letter that looked very mysterious.
But because it was too mysterious, Lu Mingfei couldn't understand it at all.
He handed the phone to Lao Tang and received a funny confused emoticon in return.
Jiude Mai held her forehead and leaned over to take a look: "The Greek letter, pronounced 'kesi', usually represents a random number in mathematics - that is, something uncertain."
“As expected of someone who has been to university, you have a wealth of knowledge.” Lu Mingfei gave a thumbs up and was about to look for a letter similar to “ξ” among more than fifty buttons when the elevator car suddenly trembled slightly and he felt an imperceptible sense of overweight.
Someone is calling for the elevator upstairs! Noticing something was wrong, Old Tang's first reaction was to grab his gun and take someone hostage to lead the way, but Lu Mingfei held him down and pressed the twentieth floor.
ξ, Unsure of the floor? I'll take the safe passage and search up floor by floor!
