Chapter 1127 Night Rain
At the same time as the Imperial Capital Conference was being held, the arrests in Europe took a huge turn for the better.
In a small town in a remote city in Italy, Qiangwei has brought people to monitor the entire town.
Now, every move of this small town has been monitored by the Scarlet Rose killer, who is just waiting for the target to fall into the trap.
The church bell tower in the town is the tallest building in the town. From here you can overlook the entire town and take in all the activity around you.
Qiangwei stood in front of the window, quietly looking at the buildings below. A cool breeze blew over her hair, making her originally cold face look a little gentle.
At this time, footsteps were heard and Mudan, dressed in casual clothes, walked in.
"Chief, the entire town is now under our surveillance. Will the target really come here?"
There was a hint of doubt in Mudan's tone.
Because the news that Qu Chunrun would appear here was not found out by them or Enzo, but conveyed by the Twelve Zodiac Animals.
As the second-ranked killer organization in the dark world, the entire Scarlet Rose actually does not submit to the Twelve Zodiac Signs.
The other four levels of killers, Tiandi Xuanhuang, are still easy to deal with, but the gap between them and the Twelve Zodiac Signs is too big, so they have no right to disobey.
But Mudan and other shadow assassins don't think so.
They always thought that the Twelve Zodiac Signs might be a little stronger than them in individual combat, but to judge the strength of an organization, one must look at its overall strength.
The ten shadow assassins may not be able to defeat the twelve zodiac animals, but together with killers of other levels, it is definitely enough.
It is precisely because of this idea that they have always been dissatisfied with the Twelve Zodiac Signs, even though both parties are now working under Lu Feng.
Qiangwei has led the organization for so many years, so of course she knows what her subordinate and others are thinking. Thinking of the sense of crisis she felt from Chen Long yesterday, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Peony, I know what you're thinking, but I want to tell you that we and the Twelve Zodiac Signs are now on the same side. Put away your competitive spirit."
"Besides, in the past, during our peak period, we were always outshined by the Twelve Zodiac Signs."
"Although we have recovered from this period, we still have a long way to go before we can return to our peak. What makes you think we are still qualified to compete with the Twelve Zodiac Signs?!"
A calm interspersed with sharp words scolded Mudan, leaving her speechless.
Although she was extremely dissatisfied in her heart, she also understood that her leader was telling the truth.
If the Scarlet Rose at its peak in the past still had a chance to compete with the Twelve Zodiac Signs, then the Scarlet Rose, whose strength is now only one tenth of what it was, is not even worthy of carrying the shoes of the Twelve Zodiac Signs.
She lowered her head and stopped talking, looking a little depressed.
Seeing her like this, Qiangwei, who was leaning against the window, sighed slightly.
As the leader and strongest of the Scarlet Rose, she also wants to take first place and lead the Scarlet Rose to the top.
But dreams are dreams and reality is reality. Others can fantasize, but she, as the leader, must remain calm and not have any fantasy.
She walked up to Mudan and patted her shoulder gently:
"Keep working hard, we are still young and there may be opportunities in the future."
"You're right. Even if the Twelve Zodiac Signs are strong, there are only twelve of them. But we, the Scarlet Rose, are different."
"Now that we have the support of the master, we can develop rapidly. In the future, we may even have a chance to take a seat at the top assassin organization in the dark world."
After saying this, Rose's expression returned to its usual coldness.
"But you must remember, from now on the Twelve Zodiac Signs will be our comrades. I don't want to hear those doubts again. If there's a next time, you will go to the Penalty Office and receive the punishment of three cuts and six holes!"
Mudan, who was originally a little depressed, reacted immediately when she heard about the punishment of three knives and six holes.
"Yes, Chief, I know I was wrong!"
"Ah."
Qiangwei nodded without saying anything, but waved her hand to signal her to leave.
Time flies and it is eight o'clock in the evening.
Because it is not a city, there is not much nightlife here, and many residents have already lay in bed and started enjoying the quiet night.
Suddenly.
A torrential downpour hit.
A flash of lightning streaked across the dark night sky, as if to tear a hole in the darkness.
The sudden appearance of heavy rain seemed to add a touch of danger to this restless night.
In the darkness of the night, only the killers hidden in the shadows were quietly watching their own jurisdiction.
The rose stood alone on the edge of the church's top terrace.
The cold raindrops were swept by the strong wind and lashed fiercely at her cold metal mask and tight combat uniform, outlining sharp lines.
She seemed like a sculpture blending into the rainy night. Only her eyes, sharp as an eagle's, peered through the mask, piercing through the heavy rain curtains and scanning the town swallowed by darkness and rainstorms.
"Crash-"
The sound of rain was deafening, drowning out most of the sounds in the world.
Seeing this, Qiangwei murmured softly, her voice almost inaudible due to the wind and rain: "This rain...comes at the perfect time."
"The cold rain can wash away many traces, whether it's blood or other things that shouldn't be there."
The moment the words fell!
Without a single warning, Qiangwei's body moved! Without even turning back, she swung her right arm backward like a whip!
A cold light tore through the rain curtain, and with a sharp sound of breaking through the air, it pierced straight behind him!
Less than three meters behind her, a slender figure that almost blended into the darkness emerged like a ghost!
Faced with this sudden and deadly flying knife, the figure displayed amazing flexibility and speed.
Her body twisted and bent suddenly at strange angles that were unimaginable to humans, like a soft snake without bones, narrowly avoiding the cold light that brushed past her waist!
The flying knife made a "snap" sound and deeply penetrated the stone pillar behind her.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
Crisp applause rang out amid the sound of wind and rain, with a hint of laziness and playfulness.
"As expected of the Rose Leader, this level of vigilance is truly astonishing."
A female voice came with a hint of coldness in its charming voice.
Rose turned around slowly.
With the occasional pale flash of lightning that streaked across the sky, she could clearly see the person coming.
The other person was also wearing a tight black nightgown, which perfectly wrapped her delicate body with breathtaking curves that could make any man's blood boil. Even in this cold and rainy night, it was difficult to conceal the fatal temptation and surging waves.
She wore a strangely shaped mask on her face—it was a coiled, head-raised venomous snake, with two dots of faint green light embedded in the snake's eyes, flashing a frightening cold light in the darkness.
It was the Snake we had met before!
