Chapter 271: Swordsman (3rd Watch)

"Is it the guy who used a wandering soul to monitor No. 1 Black Street?"

"Or the guy who has been here for a long time, ready to fish in troubled waters?"

The thought in his heart made Qin Ran rush in at a faster speed.

Shi Qi didn't make a sound. After checking the scratches on the lock of the courtyard door, he took out his gun and followed Qin Ran into the two-and-a-half-story building in front of him.

Although he knew that guns might not work when facing some people on the mysterious side.

But it's better than bare hands, right?

However, as soon as Shi Qi entered the corridor, he saw Qin Ran squatting in front of a dead body, examining it.

"One step too late!"

"There are no living people here!"

Qin Ran stood up and walked towards another corpse.

In the building in front of me, there were three corpses, all of which were wounded by a knife in the neck.

It was not a sneak attack, but a frontal attack.

Entering the field of view of [Tracking], Kieran could clearly see the attacker's footprints in the corridor, and thus make an accurate judgment.

"The other party pried open the courtyard door, dispelled the magic trap at the door, and then rushed into it at an extremely fast speed. Before the three left behind could react, they killed each of them with one knife!"

"The speed of the opponent and the speed of the knife are very fast!"

"It's almost time for the two gunmen to draw their guns!"

Qin Ran frowned slightly as he thought of the pistol that the second corpse held tightly to the handle but had no chance to draw it out.

Because he thought he couldn't do it to such a degree.

At least, not with 【Arrogant Words】!

Unless the three people who attacked were very close.

However, the distance between the three corpses was not close. Two corpses were in the hall and corridor downstairs, while the other one was at the stairs on the second floor.

Looking at the footprints left on the sofa, Kieran immediately imagined that after the assailant killed the left behind people on the first floor one after another, he leaped towards the third left behind who had just appeared at the stairs on the second floor. Before he could react, he cut the opponent's throat with a knife.

Clean and tidy, leaving no room for life.

It gave Qin Ran an extremely professional feeling.

"What a fast knife!"

After a quick check, Shi Qi's expression changed drastically.

In fact, Shi Qi was more able to appreciate the horror of this swordsman than Qin Ran.

Because, he brought himself into the attacked.

Either way, he didn't seem to be able to pull out his gun smoothly.

Moreover, he recognized two gunmen who had their throats cut.

All famous guys.

"These two guys are well-known gunmen on the west coast, known for their speed, and disappeared without a trace about half a year ago! I thought they were ambushed by someone! I didn't expect that they were all thrown into the curse society!"

Shi Qi pointed to the bodies of the two gunmen.

"What about this guy?"

Qin Ran pointed to the corpse at the stairs on the second floor.

"have no idea!"

"I haven't seen him before, he should be a newcomer to the Curse Society!"

After carefully looking at the corpse for a long time, Shi Qi shook his head.

"is that so?"

Qin Ran pondered.

The other party was wearing casual clothes and walked out from the second floor. There were two left behind on the first floor. No matter how you look at it, their identities should be more important than the identities of the two so-called famous gunmen that Shi Qi said.

However, Shi Qi has not seen each other.

And there were no traces of more training on the opponent.

The palm and the back of the hand are very smooth.

"Could it be the caster?"

Qin Ran guessed, then waved at Shi Qi.

"follow me!"

"Help me check this guy, I always feel that there is a secret!"

While telling Shi Qi, Qin Ran walked towards the end of the second floor, where there was a decorative table with vases, and the afterglow of the setting sun was shining into it.

The white vase has an orange-red color, which is very similar to the paint color of the decorative table below.

But in the field of view of [Tracking], the most conspicuous thing is the half glove print on the vase, and the attacker's footprints in front of the decoration table,

After a little inspection, Qin Ran raised his hand and placed it on the vase, exerting a little force.

Click!

With the rotation of the vase, a door appeared on one side of the wall amidst the crisp sound of the machine spring,

After the door was pushed open, a downward passage appeared.

Qin Ran went down first.

After about thirty steps down, a secret room with the door opened appeared in front of Qin Ran.

Qin Ran looked at the secret room behind the door, and at the same time gestured to Shi Qi for safety.

"When did the members of the Curse Club build such a secret room?"

Shi Qi, who came down, looked around curiously.

From his puzzled tone, Qin Ran was sure that there was no secret room at 100 Ceylon Street before, and Shi Qi was very familiar with it.

"For any mysterious side organization that comes into our field of vision, we investigate as much as possible - the Cursed Society is no exception! When they bought No. 100 Ceylon Street, there was already a picture of the house structure here. Appeared on my desk!"

Shi Qi took the initiative to explain without waiting for Qin Ran to ask.

"It can be seen that your work is not thorough!"

Facing Qin Ran's evaluation, Shi Qi immediately showed a wry smile

After Kieran scanned the dozens of books and many potions, alchemy, and spell-casting materials piled up in the secret room, his eyes locked on a table.

Judging from the table placement and the three surrounding chairs, this should be a conference table.

In the field of vision of [Tracking], the footprints left by the assailant, after entering this secret room, went straight to this table.

Obviously, there should be something on this table.

It's a pity that the things on the table are long gone.

But still leave some information for Qin Ran.

"The other party is far more familiar with this place than imagined!"

"The purpose is also extremely clear!"

"Are you an acquaintance from the Curse Club?"

Qin Ran thought about it and asked Shi Qi: "Among the people who have a good or bad relationship with the Cursing Society, is there a person who is about 1.8 meters tall, has a vigorous body, and is good at using knives?"

"No!"

"Actually, there's no such thing on the entire West Coast—professional killers, gangster thugs, I count them all."

"Of course, it's also possible that our work is not thorough enough!"

Shi Qi said with certainty.

However, immediately thinking of the secret room he was in, our Sergeant Shi Qi immediately added a self-deprecating sentence.

Qin Ran didn't answer, he looked around the table in front of him.

Hope to find something useful.

But unfortunately, the attacker was more cautious than he imagined, and did not leave anything of value behind.

Similarly, Shi Qi didn't find anything either.

"We should call my colleagues."

"Although what happens here is under my control, some reports are still necessary!"

"Also, if there are more people, I think it will be easier for us to search the entire house! Maybe we will find something!"

Shi Qi said.

"etc!"

Qin Ran stopped it directly.

He, found something.
