January 2nd, afternoon.
Time goes back to the present when Zi Sui has just collected the rubbing copy of the first volume of "Soul, Body, Psychic Power".
“Dee-dee-dee…dee-dee-dee…”
He smoothed out the "wrinkles" in the air that appeared when the alien space was opened.
Then I heard a subtle, rhythmic knocking sound coming from the window behind me.
The moment he turned around, the feather powder penetrated the wall through the folding of space and completely surrounded the window where the sound came from.
After confirming what was outside, Zi Sui slowly pushed open the frosted glass window.
“Squeak—”
The moment the black shadow peeked out of the window, Zi Sui stretched out his hand and grabbed the other person's throat with a "whoosh".
Then drag it into the window in an instant.
“Click!”
The windows were closed, surrounded by feather powder, and the space was isolated again.
“Coo…Coo…”
Zi Sui held the gray pigeon in his hand. The pigeon struggled for a while and then stopped moving.
Immediately afterwards, two pairs of blood-red eyes looked at each other.
Strangely, he felt the words "My life is over" from the pigeon's eyes, which were not even as big as green beans.
"Carrier pigeon?"
Just in case, he still held the pigeon, but loosened his grip slightly.
The pigeon felt as if it could live again, so it plucked up the courage to speak.
"Gu... The traitors are making unusual moves. I'm afraid they'll set out tomorrow to usurp the Bo Xi family. Bo Xigan will take a boat south to Huanshui tonight."
Zi Sui listened calmly, squeezed the pigeon in his hand, and said, "Send the message back that Bo Xigan can't get on the boat tonight."
After saying that, he opened the window and threw the pigeon from Bo Xiwan out.
"Gu! Gugugugu!"
Ignoring the mournful cries of the fleeing pigeons, Zi Sui put on his shoes, fastened his hood, and walked straight out the door.
Since the target has taken the initiative to leave Shengtian Public School, there is no need to hesitate.
It’s just right. After I finish killing people, I’ll wait for the chaos to start tomorrow and then go explore the library.
…
In the evening, the wind blew across the water, and the ripples were swallowed up by the waves.
Zi Sui stood outside the harbor and looked out, watching the orange-red sunset gradually touch the farthest horizon.
“Duwu——”
The sound of the cruise ship's whistle before departure was heard from the dock, and the last boat of the day heading to Huanshui Noon Market was also ready to depart.
The next direct boat to noon, which is also the last one, will be in three hours.
Zi Sui's footsteps only stopped for a moment, and after a moment, he started walking again.
Jogging along the pier, he was just like the other pedestrians around him who were out for exercise in the evening.
The dock is very large, with many containers, machines, ships and workers mixed together inside.
The outer perimeter is surrounded by iron fences, trees and nearby residents.
It is undoubtedly difficult to sneak in quietly, assassinate, and finally leave without a trace.
Bo Xigan, who was about to usurp power, was well aware of his situation.
Therefore, he would not leave Shengtian Public School on a daily basis. Even if he left, he would spend most of his time in the relatively safe carriage.
Therefore, before boarding the ship, he would most likely not leave the carriage with the protective shield.
This means that the opportunities Bo Xigan will find when he goes out will be even fewer than when he was in Shengtian Public School.
However, there are pros and cons.
If we kill him at Shengtian Public School, we also have to consider the issue of evacuation.
Zi Sui's thoughts were wandering, and before the sun sank into the ocean, he had already figured out the general terrain and buildings around him.
He turned around, jogged into a fork in the road, and then began to gradually reduce his presence.
Until he passed by a building facing the pier, his presence disappeared silently among the crowd.
The next moment, Zi Sui, wearing a hood, appeared on the roof of the building.
The only remaining ray of setting sun shone on the pure black clothes, gradually darkening and disappearing, as if being swallowed up.
Scarlet eyes emerged from the darkness, staring intently at the still busy dock in the distance, quietly waiting for the opportunity to come.
…
“Gurgle…Gurgle…”
The wheels, which were twice as large as those of an ordinary carriage, kicked up some dust on the road.
A large lacquered wood and gilded carriage passed by, pulled by six of the finest horses with orcish blood.
The golden threads outlined strange patterns on the car body, and faintly, spiritual energy fluctuations emanated from the patterns.
At this moment, Bo Xigan and several classmates who were also from aristocratic families were sitting quietly in the carriage.
No one spoke, and everyone let the atmosphere condense in this small space.
After all, they were not going on a spring outing, but to seize power.
This time, it's either victory or death, but no one is in the mood to be clever at this time.
“Ouch—”
The carriage slowly came to a stop, and then the driver's respectful voice came from the front of the carriage: "Master, we have arrived at the dock."
"Go and ask how long it will take for the boat to sail."
"yes."
Bo Xigan spoke only after the driver's footsteps disappeared.
"Everyone, once you get off the car, you will be out of the protection range of the shield."
"Be sure to board the ship promptly and do not linger in port."
"Everyone should have brought food and drinks. Once you're on board, go into your room and don't come out again."
After listening, everyone around nodded, indicating that they understood.
This was all they could do to prevent an assassination attempt before meeting with the members of the lunch meeting.
After a while, footsteps were heard outside the carriage again. It was the coachman returning.
"Master, there are still five minutes before the official boarding time, but someone has said hello, so you can board the ship early."
