Chapter 840 Your Heartbeat Is Too Fast
Although Dadatis did not tell Zhang Heng where to put the gifts he left, fortunately, this question is not difficult to guess. The old Persian trainer is very cautious. The two of them usually meet at night and have never been there. Several places can be found by elimination method.
So after seeing Dadatis off, Zhang Heng turned directly to a small bathhouse. This small bathhouse was very close to where he lived and it was only open during the day, so it was chosen by the old trainer for temporary training of the two. The field was also Zhang Heng's calculation as the most likely place to hide the gift.
Zhang Heng was already familiar with this place. He climbed over the wall and went in, bypassing the place where the guard slept.
The bathing area is not large, but there are still many places where things can be hidden. However, considering the possibility that he could not find it in a short time, the things must not be placed in a place where ordinary people would find them, so Zhang Heng directly screened them out. Places that guests who come to bathe are likely to reach and come into contact with.
After that, the first thing he thought of was the locker. Ordinary guests store their clothes in the locker, but the storage time is usually only one day. When the bathhouse closes, the things will definitely be cleared out. However, if you are a regular guest and don't need money, If so, you can rent a long-term locker yourself.
Zhang Heng walked to the long-term locker and checked the name posted on it. However, to his surprise, he could not find Dadatis or his own name. To be on the safe side, he opened the door and checked again. It was finally confirmed that Dadatis' gift was indeed not placed here.
So Zhang Heng could only continue to consider other possibilities. He walked around the bathhouse. When he walked to the cold water bathhouse, he noticed the twelve pillars there. Eight of them supported the roof, and the other four The roots serve as decoration.
Zhang Heng tried to move his steps, but found a crack on the top of a decorative column.
"Oh, at such an age, you can't be so dissatisfied with old age, right?"
Zhang Heng tested the firmness of the pillar, then used his hands and feet to climb up and put his hand into the crack. The next moment, a system prompt rang in his ears.
[Discovered game prop—Heart of Creus (unidentified)]
After Zhang Heng got the item, he slid down the pillar. Then he looked at the fingernail-sized sapphire in his palm. Although it had not been appraised yet, Zhang Heng actually already knew about this prop when he landed. Because with his now keen five senses, he could clearly detect that the sound of his landing this time was much softer than before, and his breathing was almost inaudible.
If nothing else, the function of this thing should be to hide the movement of the wearer when moving and hiding. Should I say that he is worthy of being the God of Assassins? This equipment is a perfect match for assassins.
Then Zhang Heng unfolded the small papyrus note that wrapped the Heart of Cleois.
There is only one sentence on it, "Now you believe it."
Zhang Heng smiled. After so many rounds of games, he has become more and more understanding of the nature of gods. Rather than saying that gods created humans, it is better to say that humans created gods to satisfy their various needs. In the early days when productivity was not so developed, many people worshiped gods in order to strengthen the royal power, or out of fear of death and disease, and to ensure the stability of the social structure.
The existence of gods can explain many unknown phenomena. With the development of productivity and the spread of popular culture, more and more mysterious things in the past can be explained by science. Human beings no longer rely on prayer to win a battle. After a war or a good harvest, a group of ancient gods began to weaken. In contrast, new gods rose, such as the God of Technology that Zhang Heng allegedly encountered in the Apollo copy, and the Lego behind the Lego copy. god...
However, Zhang Heng did not expect that such an unpopular existence as Cleois could successfully become a god. It can only be said that there seemed to be more assassins in ancient Rome than imagined.
Zhang Heng put away the gift given to him by the old Persian trainer, and then left the small bathing place.
…………
The patrol team's integration of the bottom forces continues.
While Soap stopped repairing, the anti-patrol alliance on the other side was developing in full swing. Therefore, during this period, the small forces in this area began to take sides either actively or passively. The result was that the security situation worsened. Sometimes two groups of people start fighting for no apparent reason on the street.
However, Zhang Heng did not control this situation. Instead, he took advantage of the conflict between the two sides to secretly eliminate some unstable factors that needed to be eliminated, so that his own people could better control their own power.
His plan had been going smoothly, even faster than expected, but an accident happened in the second week.
Zhang Heng and Marcus suddenly received news while patrolling the street. A patrol member who was on vacation was blocked by a group of masked men while buying bread in a bakery. However, the patrol member at this time He was no longer a soft persimmon who could be manipulated by others. When he saw this, he immediately threw away the bread and drew out the weapon he carried.
However, despite his heroic performance, the opponent had an absolute advantage in numbers.
Several people rushed up together and quickly snatched away his weapon. After that, several people began to beat the patrol member together. After Zhang Heng and Marcus got the news, they also put down what they were doing, and on the second Rush there in no time.
When they arrived at the scene of the incident, Zhang Heng and Marcus found that the bakery was surrounded by passers-by.
So Marcus went in front, Zhang Heng followed and got into the crowd, trying their best to squeeze forward.
As a result, at this moment, a dagger silently stabbed Zhang Heng in the back of the heart.
At this moment, Zhang Heng was surrounded by people, with their bodies touching each other, and the surrounding environment was very noisy. Logically speaking, he would neither realize nor be able to prepare for this fatal blow.
The assassin was obviously very satisfied with his sword. In his opinion, the target was certain to die. He had been an assassin for so many years and had almost never failed. He was confident enough in his own strength. He originally wanted to attack the target directly. , but his employer repeatedly emphasized that he should be careful, so he finally made this plan.
In terms of controlling the environment and target psychology alone, it can be said to be perfect.
However, what he didn't expect was that this perfect knife failed in the end.
One second Zhang Heng was still in front of him, the next second he lost sight of the other person, and then his wrist hurt, and the dagger was transferred to Zhang Heng's hand.
"Who was your teacher? Didn't he teach you not to keep staring at the target before taking action? All your intentions were exposed, and your heartbeat was too fast when you took out the knife."
