Chapter 2342 2354 [Vodka's Victory]
"What now?"
Vodka's brain began to work more actively than ever before:
"First of all, it might be Wuzo's intention to murder me, but he definitely wasn't the one who carried it out... This is a blessing in disguise for me! The enemy I need to face directly is not Wuzo, but the cruel 'Villa Destroyer'. Even if that guy is influenced by Wuzo, he won't be able to react as quickly as Wuzo - I still have a chance, I haven't lost yet!"
Realizing this, Vodka felt relieved: Although being targeted by the villa vandal was not a good thing, it sounded much safer than "being an enemy of Uzo".
"Then the next question is how to escape from danger." Vodka pushed up his sunglasses again and began to secretly observe the surrounding environment:
"Bypass the trap and leave? But since that guy has set his sights on me, I'm afraid he won't let me go easily. If he has a gun or a crossbow or something like that, and sees me trying to run away and hides in the bushes and shoots at me, things will be troublesome."
"If you walk slowly, you might be attacked by the villa destroyers, but if you walk fast, you might not have time to observe and run into other truly deadly traps. I saw two traps in a row after only a few steps. Who knows how many more are hidden behind them? This is really too risky."
A series of countermeasures flashed through my mind, but were eliminated one by one.
Suddenly, he had an idea and found a way that might be useful.
Vodka began to ponder.
Vodka looked conflicted.
Vodka's expression gradually became firm, as if he had made up his mind.
…
At the same time, in the bushes.
The dark figure who was peeking through the gap held his breath and looked at the scene with a frown, his heart slightly hanging in his throat: "..." I didn't expect that this big guy looked stupid, but his observation ability was so sharp. It really shows that you can't judge a person by his appearance.
"He actually discovered two of my traps in succession." The dark figure began to sweat profusely. "This guy suddenly showed such a determined expression. What is he going to do? ... Did he find out where I am and plan to pounce on me and take me out for a confrontation?"
"This won't do." The dark figure clenched the knife in his hand, hesitating a little, "Should I stab him to death when he comes over, or take a gamble and walk out without a weapon, pretending that I'm just passing by?"
"I don't know how good this guy is at fighting. But judging from the fact that he got stuck in the suspension bridge, he's probably not a top martial arts expert. But given his size, he looks pretty strong. If we fight..."
The balance in the dark figure's heart went back and forth, and finally gradually tilted towards one end.
He gritted his teeth, his eyes showing a fierce look: "No, I can't be lucky! - If I remember correctly, even Jiang Xia admired this big guy. To be admired by a famous detective, it can be seen that although this 'Mr. Yamada' is unknown, he must have a talent for detective.
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to fool him by pretending to be innocent. If he pretends to trust me and then exposes me in one fell swoop when he returns to the crowd, I will be surrounded by so many people and I will have no chance of completing my plan.
"Rather than falling into such a passive situation, it is better to take advantage of the fact that he is alone and get rid of him in one fell swoop - being physically strong doesn't mean anything, maybe this guy is just a useless figure.
"Besides, he is in the open and I am in the dark. I have the advantage. As long as I wait for him to come over and aim more accurately, I can launch a sudden surprise attack. It won't be difficult to keep him here forever."
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind, and the dark figure suddenly showed murderous intent and clenched the knife in his hand.
He lay prone, getting into the most convenient position for exerting force, ready to stab "Mr. Yamada" in the vitals as soon as he came over.
However, after waiting for a long time, no one came near.
"……?"
The dark figure remembered the experience of hearing footsteps but not finding anyone not long ago, and couldn't help but move closer to the bushes again, looking through the gap in the direction of "Mr. Yamada".
The good news is that "Mr. Yamada" still stood there with a determined look on his face, and did not suddenly disappear like the previous series of strange footsteps.
The news, whether it is good or bad, is...
thump--
Under the gaze of the dark figure, "Mr. Yamada" suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground with a thud.
The dark figure: “……?”
I've only heard of falling on flat ground, but this guy wasn't walking, so how could he suddenly fall?
He was feeling somewhat confused, but suddenly a magical sound pierced his brain -
The fallen “Mr. Yamada” hugged his ankle, took a deep breath, and suddenly shouted with all his strength: “Help! There is a trap in the woods——!!”
Dark figure: “?!!”
The powerful sound waves spread from the forest, passed through the fresh air in the blink of an eye, and vaguely floated to the villa and the lake.
And this is not over yet. "Mr. Yamada" shouted again: "Be careful of the trap--!!"
Too loud noise can scare away wild animals and also make humans feel uneasy.
The dark figure was frightened by the loud roar in the quiet woods, his heart rate accelerated, his blood pressure rose, and murderous intent surged.
His forehead twitched wildly and he silently clenched the knife in his hand.
Then a second later, he sighed, let go of the knife as if resigned to his fate, turned around and walked away quietly.
"I'd better leave before he sees me." The dark figure quickly took a small path to the villa to create the illusion that he had stayed in the villa all the time, while he couldn't help cursing:
"If I was hiding in the bushes and he came looking for me, I could definitely use a surprise attack to kill him.
“But now he is squatting in the open space under the tree. If I go to find him, he will be able to see where I am coming from at a glance… It would be fine if I could kill him with one strike, but if his ankle sprain is fake, I’m afraid I won’t be able to kill him in a short time.
"If I delay for a moment, others will be attracted by his shouting, and I will be surrounded again... It's really dangerous. Fortunately, I didn't act impulsively. By the way, this 'Mr. Yamada' looks inconspicuous, but he is actually too insidious!"
"At this point, we have no choice but to retreat... Damn it, what's wrong with these people from Tokyo? None of them play by the rules!"
The dark figure left angrily.
Behind him, where he couldn't see, Vodka's ears twitched slightly, and he suddenly turned his head to look in the direction he left.
Vodka: “…” There seems to be some movement over there… There was indeed someone nearby!
"It sounds like that person has left... Fortunately, I acted decisively and made the right choice!" He loosened his intact ankle, wiped the cold sweat from his head, and suddenly realized, "As long as I use my lower limit to break Wu Zuo's lower limit, I can catch a glimmer of hope!"
