The Puppeteer of Academy City

Chapter 696: encounter bandits

In every corner around the alley, multiple figures suddenly appeared.

"Wow... Is this kind of development serious?" Hitomi Shiranui complained in a low voice, but there was no tension in her expression.

"Speaking of which, there are too many such remote alleys in Academy City?" Ling Xingye couldn't help muttering, "This classic drama happens every time in this kind of place..."

When the two were talking in low voices, they saw a few tall men surrounding them, each of them was fierce and full of flesh, wishing to engrave the word "bad guy" on their foreheads, for fear that others would not know.

They wore nondescript metal earrings and necklaces, their hair was dyed in various colors, and their clothes were of the same color scheme, as if they were deliberately emphasizing the "bad" attributes.

"You two don't move! Yes, that's you," one of them said loudly, "Can you understand Japanese? Don't move!"

As he spoke, he pointed at him with the sharpened water pipe in his hand. Several other people also held murder weapons and stepped forward.

Ling Xingye frowned, subconsciously protecting Hitomi Shiranui in his arms.

"What... what are you going to do?" Hitomi Shiranui asked in extremely stiff Japanese with a frightened look.

It's like a foreigner who just learned Japanese.

Ling Xingye looked down in surprise, but saw the girl playfully blinked her left eye at him.

"You two, if you see something you shouldn't see, go over there!"

Another person holding a mace next to him spoke in English, and pointed back to a fork in the road behind him.

Ling Xingye looked down at Hitomi Shiranui again, and after making eye contact, he curled his lips helplessly, and walked obediently with the gang.

Entering the fork, it is a more remote alley.

There were already people inside—four blond-haired, blue-eyed guys covered in various Academy City memorabilia.

These four real tourists are being threatened and blackmailed, and five unscrupulous strong men are staring at them.

"It seems that we have seen the scene of their robbery." Hitomi Shiranui's voice sounded in his mind.

Ling Xingye remained calm, observing the situation carefully.

"Is this bad society under Xingye's subordinates?" Shiranui Hitomi asked again.

Although Ling Xingye dominated the underground world of Academy City and became the group of armed incompetents, that is, the leader of all bad associations; but the real darkness and evil cannot just disappear.

Even if Ling Xingye pulls the original "darkness" into the "light", or at least the "grey" area, there will still be new "darkness".

There is a high probability that this group of people is not a member of the "group" right now?

Ling Xingye shook his head slightly, and replied in his heart: "Of course not, I even wonder if they are ordinary bad guys."

After his observation, although these people were holding simple weapons such as water pipes, short knives, or nailed baseball bats, judging from the occasional outlines of their clothes, it was obvious that there were guns hidden inside.

Furthermore, these people's intentional efforts to pretend to be "bad boys" are a bit too much, and their words and deeds will reveal a bit of well-trained ability, which is really not like street gangsters.

"You guys, hand over the money!"

A man with a knife came over: "Hand over your mobile phone too, don't call the police!"

Shiranuo Tong suddenly screamed, hugged Ling Xingye as if frightened, and buried his face in his arms.

"Hey...don't play any more."

"Cooperate with me, cooperate with me!" Hitomi Shiranui urged repeatedly, "I learned something interesting just now."

Ling Xingye had to reluctantly hand over his wallet and mobile phone.

Under the urging and threats of the other party, Hitomi Shiranui also handed over her wallet and mobile phone.

Then the two were driven over to join the previous four tourists.

"Sure enough, it wasn't a real robbery." Ling Xingye nodded secretly, "I just took away my wallet and mobile phone, and didn't do a further search. I even left these people's necklaces and watches. It's a bit perfunctory."

Maybe the average gangster would be satisfied with the reward of grabbing the wallet, but those guys would leave quickly after grabbing things instead of continuing to detain the victim.

"Damn it! Why haven't you come yet? Go rush it!" A man who looks like a leader muttered in a foreign language, "You, find a few more hostages, remember, foreign tourists are needed! The devil knows those local brats There will be some weird abilities..."

"...It's Russian." Hitomi Shiranui said, while providing simultaneous translation for Ling Xingye.

"Oh, is it an external force again? The interesting thing you said just now is this?" Ling Xingye looked at the commemorative jacket on his body, "It seems that we are on guard against those with abilities, we were mistaken for foreign tourists. "

"Well, it seems that there is another big plan." Hitomi Shiranui nodded, "Cover me, I will continue to investigate."

Hitomi Shiranui carefully adjusted the angle of view, and finally met the eyes of the boss who spoke just now.

"I see." After a while, Hitomi Shiranui looked away, "It's a group of professional mercenaries."

According to the information obtained by Shiranui Hitomi, these people are professional mercenaries, or "commercial spies".

Entrusted by their employer, they obtained a batch of biological samples in Academy City, but they were unable to transport them out. Moreover, the previous actions also attracted the attention of Academy City, and the situation became more and more urgent.

In desperation, they finally came up with a way-fishing in troubled waters, using other criminal activities to cover up their true purpose.

"Next, they are going to rob the safe of Lisheng Bank," Shiranui Hitomi said, "but not to rob things, but to hide the obtained biological samples in the safe. And trigger the bank's emergency mechanism-in the event of a security incident, the The vault was moved to another branch. The nearest branch of Lisheng Bank is outside Academy City."

Since the bank vault involves many aspects of privacy and secrecy, the police will not be allowed to check the specific contents inside. As long as the things left Academy City smoothly, with the employer's ability, it would be a breeze to take them away.

As for the hostages - it is the necessary element to make things big ~lightnovelpub.net~ and mix up the water.

"In addition, they are planning to use us as scapegoats so that they can escape their shells."

Just as he was talking, he saw the gangsters coming over, forcing the hostages to wear hoods and changing into the same clothes as them.

At this point, they stopped covering up and drew their pistols to strengthen their "persuasion".

A few minutes later, the gangsters found five more unlucky foreign tourists, making up a similar number.

Then, a van drove into the alley, and all the hostages were herded into the vehicle and threatened with explosive neck collars.

But at the first moment, Ling Xingye cut off and destroyed all the neck rings, and then connected them with silk threads, pretending to be intact.

"The action begins!" Hitomi Shiranui and the bandits announced together.

Then, together with Ling Xingye, enter the "watching a play" mode.
