Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 935: 577. A Leap

“Boss, where do you think Yangyang went?” Jiang Mubei asked, “Did she not see us?”

Xu Linsen sighed while escaping, “Don’t struggle, she saw us, it’s just that saving the other person is comparatively more important…”

Jiang Mubei: “…”

This result is really hard to accept.

Clearly, she’s part of the Spades Organization, yet when she sees the boss, she doesn’t save him, instead saves an outsider.

“It seems Guo Huchan’s gossip was true,” Jiang Mubei said, “Yangyang and that Daytime Boss are indeed a bit suspicious.”

Xu Linsen glanced at him, “What gossip did Guo Huchan spill?”

Jiang Mubei whispered, “Isn’t Guo Huchan with those Time Travelers from the Freemasonry? They opened up a small settlement for wildlings in the southern wilderness. A while ago, Guo Huchan told me that Yangyang once said in the Outer World that she went on a honeymoon with someone…”

“Pfft,” even someone as composed as Xu Linsen couldn’t hold back, “Is that really true?”

“So boss, do you think this counts as a marriage alliance with Daytime?” Jiang Mubei frowned, “Helping them attract attention tonight isn’t considered helping in vain, is it?”

“You don’t need to overthink it…”

Tonight, the spectacular fight between two A-Class experts has already disturbed the entire 22nd City, the PCE Security Management Committee is all heading to the Fourth District, having no time to pay attention to the lower Third District.

“By the way, I wonder how many organizations they can swallow in this chaos? At least a dozen, right?” Jiang Mubei said.

“Don’t think about these things now, let’s focus on evacuating,” Xu Linsen said.

From afar, they already heard a cacophony of sirens.

However, at this moment, the manhole cover at their feet was suddenly pushed open from the inside, and Zhang Mengchan poked his head out, saying, “Over here!”

Xu Linsen and Jiang Mubei were both stunned, why was this little boy waiting for them here?

Both jumped into the manhole, only to see the little boy holding a flashlight and a hand-drawn map, detailing the entire pipeline layout of the 22nd City, with their escape route marked.

Zhang Mengchan stepped through the water, guiding the way with the map.

Xu Linsen asked curiously, “Who told you to wait for us here?”

Zhang Mengchan casually replied, “My boss, he said the Jindai Consortium is very strict now, they’ll surely use nearby hovercrafts and armed helicopters. You won’t get away with normal evacuation, don’t underestimate the Jindai.”

Xu Linsen was speechless for a while, “So, he knew what we were going to do and even planned an escape route for us in advance? How considerate…”

In fact, he wanted to say, he’s definitely been played…

They even arranged when you’d act, when you’d retreat, how you’d retreat, all in clear detail!

In the wide sewer, Xu Linsen suddenly turned to Jiang Mubei behind him, “Who suggested we attack Jindai Yunlo?”

“Chen Sui!” Jiang Mubei said.

Moreover, when they first arrived at the Black Swan Restaurant, ‘Chen Sui’ was still inside, and in the blink of an eye, ‘Chen Sui’ disappeared!

Furthermore, Zhang Mengchan, this little boy, seemed to have a peculiar standing within the organization; although he’s just a young boy, all core members were courteous to him.

Yet this little boy intentionally paired himself with that fool Zhang Qinghuan.

So actually, Zhang Mengchan is not following Zhang Qinghuan, but that ‘Chen Sui’.

No, to be precise, not Chen Sui, but that Daytime Boss.

Nowadays, many know the Daytime Boss is skilled at disguises; Jindai Yunxiu and the others’ operational report in Osaka already exposed this, and that Daytime Boss even has the odd title of Thousand-faced God within Jindai.

Thus, disguising as Chen Sui isn’t difficult at all.

Jiang Mubei suddenly stopped, “Boss, we might have said a lot of things we shouldn’t have right in front of him…”

“You shut up first, let me think…” Xu Linsen said expressionlessly.

They planned to break into the core circle right in front of the Daytime Boss.

They said they’d help Yangyang assess the opponent right in front of the Daytime Boss.

And the most crucial part, they applied to join the art organization, and that Chen Sui immediately followed along; clearly recognized them, and used their identity to go to the ‘Under the Neon Lights We Take Off Pants To Fart’ bar to kill Takahashi Masaru.

Two big figures from Spades, conspiring infiltration right in front of him…

Jiang Mubei said, “Boss, why don’t we leave the 22nd City? I don’t want to return to this city anymore…”

Xu Linsen sighed, “Let’s head back to the organization and talk then.”

At this moment, Zhang Mengchan laughed, “Don’t worry, the boss welcomes you. He said if you guess his identity, let me tell him, he can act like he didn’t hear anything.”

Jiang Mubei felt nauseous, are they still executing public humiliation again?

Xu Linsen looked at Zhang Mengchan’s back, the desire to kill surged suddenly.

Xiao Mengqiu turned back, alarmed, “What’s up, no need to kill to keep the secret!”

Xu Linsen mused, “When someone wanted to kill Zhang Qinghuan before, I noticed your awareness was very sharp. I didn’t think much of it then; now I realize it’s strange.”

“The boss says I have a sixth sense,” Zhang Mengchan laughed.

“Sixth sense,” Xu Linsen asked, “After things here end, why don’t you come with me.”

This Spades A, contemplated poaching him.

As an A-Class, he knows very well the sixth sense isn’t a human’s innate perceptive capability, but a special ability that slowly emerges in the process of consciousness merging with the world.

In other words, Zhang Mengchan is still an ordinary person now, but his consciousness has already started to integrate with the world.

This is why Xu Linsen is so tempted.

Moreover, he noticed these days that Zhang Mengchan, this little boy, is particularly smart and has principles and limits. There are too many reckless ones in Spades like Jiang Mubei and Guo Huchan; they really need someone like Zhang Mengchan who knows how to handle things.

“Come with me to the Southwest Snow Mountain, I’m sure you can change your destiny,” Xu Linsen said seriously.

Zhang Mengchan glanced back at him: “I’m not going; you’re not as capable as my boss.”

Xu Linsen: “…”

Spades A personally invited a little ordinary kid, but got rejected?!

No way, he has to find a way to take this child.

…

Inside the building of the Fourth District, Qing Chen quickly climbed upwards through the safety passage.

Yet, when he reached the 17th floor, the window he passed by suddenly shattered, and two pitch-black war robots lunged in, clamping Qing Chen’s arms tightly.

Amidst the rupturing noise, there seemed to be infrasonic waves inaudible to human ears, destroying his internal organs.

This infrasonic wave weapon, at frequencies lower than 20 Hz, is an excellent configuration for war robots. Certain frequencies even resonate with human organ frequencies, severely damaging internal organs, leading to death.

Being made of steel, war robots are completely unafraid of these infrasonic waves.

Infrasonic weapons have now become standard equipment in Federation urban warfare, with extremely long wavelengths, ignoring large obstacles.

Qing Chen is in unbearable agony; he has an ace up his sleeve to restrain these war machines, yet he does not wish to use it right now!

“Get off!” Qing Chen fiercely swung his arms, cruelly tossing the two war robots out the shattered window.

The war robot arms bent, firing anchors that latched onto the external wall of the building. Once they stabilized their forms on the wall, they began climbing upwards again.

Qing Chen took a deep breath, enduring the burning sensation inside his organs, not lingering to fight, and ran for the rooftop.

A few streets away, Jindai Yunhe sat in a chair, in front of him was a matrix of monitors displaying first-person views from all the combat robots.

Jindai Yunhe’s thigh was strapped with a tourniquet; he watched calmly, as if the one with the broken leg was not him.

Subordinates repeatedly urged him to go to the hospital, but he must watch as this Daytime Boss gets caught!

“Give me the radar anomaly report,” Jindai Yunhe said coldly.

“No abnormal flying vehicles nearby, no air hover cars, hover airships, or armed helicopters.”

“Looks like there’s no escape, finally caught you,” Jindai Yunhe sneered, “The hover airship and armed helicopter from the second assault team are expected to arrive on the battlefield in two minutes. All war robots, don’t engage inside the building, go to the rooftop to intercept him. This time, he has no place to flee.”

Meanwhile, there are dozens of war robots climbing the outer wall of the building, each with capabilities comparable to B-Class Genetic Warriors!

This time, they’re not attempting to block within the building, but directly heading for the top floor, planning to seal Qing Chen’s last escape route.

While sprinting up the stairs, Qing Chen silently calculated the speed of the war robots.

At each stair landing, he kicked the wall for leverage.

Every area he borrowed strength from showed slight indentation.

“Buying time for Xu Linsen and the others to withdraw, hopefully won’t end up in trouble…” Qing Chen humorously mused to himself.

He calculated the time.

He couldn’t wait any longer, but it wasn’t the agreed time yet. The one he’s waiting for isn’t above the building!

Qing Chen burst through the iron door of the rooftop; the rooftop was empty, he could even hear the metallic clattering of war robots climbing below.

Can’t wait any longer!

Qing Chen sprinted to the rooftop edge, behind him were pursuers, in front was a void abyss-like sky; he spread his arms and leapt!

Qing Chen did not carry a parachute or a glider.

Just falling downward, like suicide!

Along the rooftop edge, war robots attached to the walls like climbers, seeing Qing Chen leap out, they too jumped out one after another!

The black war robots stretched their bodies forcefully in the sky, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t catch up to Qing Chen’s speed.

“Something’s not right… open fire,” Jindai Yunhe snarled, “Leave no survivors, kill on sight.”

The components that had originally clung together on the war robots’ right arms retreated backward, revealing the artillery hidden within their forearms.

But at this moment, all war robots were suspended in mid-air, no longer falling, and this violation of physical laws caused all their aiming reticles to deviate. The 40-caliber grenade launchers in their forearms all shot into the building opposite!

Qing Chen continued to fall, the wind howled beside him, he was getting closer and closer to the ground!

Yet in the dark night, a graceful figure shot forward, catching Qing Chen in mid-air before he hit the ground, then flew away at low altitude, going further and further.

Jindai Yunhe sat silently before the monitors for two seconds, then suddenly opened fire, smashing all the monitor screens.
