Chapter 080 Killer Simulator
The hospital was a little haunted after the clearance. The green escape exit sign was dimly lit, and the rubbing sound of fabric was small and quick. Ji Xu stood by the window. He turned his head and looked over in the direction of the crisis in the distance. The sniper who was ambushing in the distance was startled, and inexplicable panic lingered in his heart. The risk of suspected exposure made him turn over and change position. The young man with his eyes covered with gauze was still staring at the original open space, as if he was unaware of the shifting dangerous atmosphere.
The sniper who changed his position was confused.
Can he...see?
The young man on the balcony of the hospital seemed to be tired of the cold wind. He raised his hand and exerted force. The curtains were pulled shut suddenly, blocking the view of the sniper scope.
Ji Xu turned around and walked to the bedside, pulled out the small suitcase underneath, first placed the crystal ball at the bottom of the suitcase on top, then took out his commonly used Grok pistol, took out the bullets from the medicine box, and slowly stuffed them into the magazine one by one.
Two hours ago, No. 8 sent the information. Ji Xu in the hospital put on the Bluetooth headset to listen to the content of the file. The bartender who was driving out found the former client chatting on the roadside, stepped on the accelerator and knocked the man three meters away. He took the excuse of apologizing to the ward opposite Ji Xu. The former client was really impressed by Ji Xu's face. While strolling around, he accidentally ran into the young killer who was resting opposite him, and he was so scared that he changed hospitals without stopping.
The bartender who had hidden his fame and talent paid the bill and left early. The former client had an argument in the corridor with the doctor who had been trying hard to persuade him. Ji Xu listened calmly to the visitor information in the headphones. The channel that was broadcasting the evening news happened to explode. The studio adjusted it for a long time and switched to the backup camera. The audience was forced to watch a black screen for five minutes. The maintenance personnel who rushed to the scene found a spliced threatening note - everyone was very busy in just half an hour.
Now no one had time to persuade and relocate the people, and the entire hospital was forced to be evacuated urgently. Except for a few warehouses that would cause huge property losses if the power was unplugged, they were still in operation. Even the lights in the corridors were turned off by the frugal doctors when they evacuated.
At this time, the footsteps in Ji Xu's senses seemed very haunted.
The moment the protective device arranged by No. 8 sounded, he stood up and fired two shots. The man rolled to the other side of the partition screen. The size and position of the screen were fixed. He waited patiently for a moment, and when he realized that he was being watched, he fired a shot accompanied by the sound of the tree hole.
The tree hole was surprised: "Hit it!"
Then he realized, "You memorized the layout? Doesn't that mean you won't need me at all?"
The sounds of running and breathing became louder. Ji Xu walked over and picked up the infrared night vision goggles on the ground. He had destroyed the light tubes in the room earlier. A killer without night vision goggles was no different from a blind man. The blind man responded in his heart: "There is an error in determining the position by sound. It's up to you to adjust."
The tree hole suddenly became solemn: "Got it!"
He was at ease in confronting the blind killer at close range, and the furniture in the luxurious ward became a bargaining chip for the two of them. However, Ji Xu played the role of a patient who "had the strength to fight back but was seriously injured". Realizing that the man was trying to rip off the curtains at the risk of having his neck cut by Ji Xu, Ji Xu stopped his subconscious dodging steps and took a prepared shot from a distance.
In order to test Ji Xu, the sniper shot slightly backwards. In front of him was the killer who was fighting with Ji Xu, and behind him was a wide and flat open space. The red dot that appeared clearly would be subconsciously avoided by the person involved as long as he was not blind.
Ji Xu is blind, but he can feel.
He endured it.
The bullet grazed his shoulder in a flash. Ji Xu covered the wound, grabbed a bandage and wrapped it around it a few times, then kicked the killer on the opposite side in the leg with a cold face. He picked up the man and held him in front of him to block the sniper's view. After the creepy sense of crisis in the distance disappeared, he raised his hand and shot the man in the shoulder at the same position. With a muffled scream of pain, Ji Xu pulled out the blocker on the slide track, opened the window and threw the man out.
It would be best if he didn't lose more than he gained.
Ji Xu was rarely angry. He felt the real medicine mixed in the bullets, found the painkillers in the reminder sound of the tree hole, picked out a few pills and stuffed them into his mouth, then changed to a clean ward and closed his eyes to rest.
The second half of the night was peaceful and uneventful. Perhaps because he felt that Ji Xu's skills had declined - he fought back and forth with an ordinary killer, and he had not yet avoided a sniper from a distance - he spent three days recovering safely. There was a kitchen and frozen food in the ward, which he could heat up in the microwave. When he was wondering who put the junk food in there, the second wave of tests came.
This time he got through it safely. Ji Xu's microwave was broken, and the kitchen and living room were in a terrible state, with no place to step. He stood silently in the middle of the ruins of the second destroyed ward, not knowing which way to go without obstacles, so he dialed number eight.
The moment the call was connected, Ji Xu said logically and reasonably, "The cruise ship will only dock in two days. I need time to prepare the tools and get familiar with my physical condition after my eyesight has recovered. Besides, the test is enough. If I leave now, they will think that I am being disturbed and annoyed."
Number 8: "You don't need to make excuses, you just feel annoyed."
Having said that, Ji Xu successfully persuaded him, and No. 8 drove over to take him to evacuate secretly. Ji Xu sat in the back seat and took Blue Enchantress. After opening his eyes, he saw No. 8 curiously peeking out. He pointed to the glaring sun outside and the car accident scene in front of him. After going around to watch the lively scene, he asked No. 8: "Do you want it?"
Number 8 pondered for a full half hour, and before parking the car, he said to him solemnly, "Were you an employee of the Citong Group before? I have heard that cactus can invigorate blood circulation, detoxify, reduce swelling and stop bleeding, but I have never heard that soaking cactus can cure all diseases. The product that claims this effect in marketing accounts is usually wolfberry."
Ji Xu put on the sunglasses he handed over to block out the glaring light. He said expressionlessly, "Please be respectful to my pet. If it has these effects, it won't be trash."
No one heard the sound of Shudong struggling: "...I'm just a chat assistant."
Number 8 sneered: "I don't believe it unless you put the crystal ball on the ground and let it roll twice."
He closed the door, found a travel guide that could be found everywhere in convenience stores on the street, tore open an inconspicuous layer, revealing a metal invitation.
"Cruise invitation." Number 8 showed him the open pages of the book, then raised his hand and pointed to the coffee table, "And your fake identity."
The phone was like it had just been snatched back, the address book and chat apps were full of people, the photo album was full of
"I should have told you that one of the few ways to crack a cruise invitation is to combine the two. The invitation is real, but the holder is fake. Compared to the huge workload of forging an invitation, it is more convenient to create an unknown fake person. This information has at least five or six years of real life. You can even get his grocery shopping and work schedule by asking his neighbors. I deliberately picked someone who is similar to your age."
So, scalpers haven’t been eliminated in the simulator, right?
Ji Xu took a quick look and found no problem. He found the contact information that the bartender had stuffed into the suitcase and ordered a single-person inflatable boat and escape tools.
Although he went up there for assassination, Ji Xu had a strange sixth sense.
This ship is probably going to sink.
Number Eight knew this very well. When Ji Xu called him, he held back for a long time before making a sarcastic remark. Why would a rookie killer who was the center of everyone's attention need assassination props? These were clearly tools for survival at sea.
The last two days passed quickly. Ji Xu took a plane to the dock and successfully boarded the cruise ship. He didn't know what tricks the casino had in mind, but the stopover location was actually Crow Island. Returning to the old place, Ji Xu leaned on the deck to admire the scenery. The destroyed sea highway had not yet been repaired, and half of the wreckage was crawling on the sea, like a snake that had been cut off.
Passersby were also watching, and their whispers were carried by the sea breeze to Ji Xu's ears, "Did the casino choose this location because it wanted to attract business for its partners?"
"I don't know if business is picking up, but anyway, many wealthy people who wanted to get on the ship were scared away. The casino has it every month, but who knows if the killer is on the island."
There were too many meaningless topics and people around them joined in unconsciously. Ji Xu stood alone and was somewhat conspicuous. He moved to a new place to see the scenery. Waiters wandered among the bustling crowd with fine wines. The cruise ship sounded its horn and set sail. The familiar island was getting farther and farther away. Gradually, the crowd, who had been full of energy just now, couldn't stand the boring sea breeze and moved indoors to party.
I don't know how many hours have passed. The vast sea can no longer see the edge. Ji Xu lowered his head to adjust his watch. The sharp-eyed waiter came forward and asked, "Guest, would you like to order some food? There are entertainment projects on the first and second floors. You can try them anytime when you are bored. The first 20 million chips are free to redeem."
Ji Xu shook his head.
His knowledge of gambling was limited to Landlord and Mahjong. He also had to worry about whether he could play three-with-two with two different cards, because the rules were different each time according to his classmates, and the situation depended on the number of people who voted on the spot.
...It's hard not to admit that he left the gold-throwing casino for last because of some kind of procrastination.
Number 8 had told him that since there was no way to learn from the movies and use superb gambling skills to force the organizer to appease the people, he could only wait until the cruise ship returned in a week, when the person in charge of the Gold Throwing Casino would go on stage to give a speech.
I don't want to choose either of the two seasons.
He was adept at creating chaos, so there was no need for him to follow a route planned by others.
He straightened up: "Take me back to the room."
The waiter politely led the guest who knew nothing about gambling back to the room and through the scene of decadence. He had just opened the door and invited the guest in when the cruise ship suddenly shook violently and he was almost thrown into the air. Fortunately, Ji Xu pulled him.
The banquet hall not far away was in chaos. The high piles of chips fell on the carpet. The lights flickered on and off. The sound of the champagne tower collapsing was accompanied by the screams of the crowd. Someone shouted loudly:
"The bottom cabin exploded!!!"
