Thinking of this, Wesley couldn't help but turn on his computer. According to Sloan's information, he found the news about his father dying on the top floor of the Metropolis Building yesterday morning.
He really treated Mr. X as his father now. His eyes glistened with tears as he gritted his teeth and said, "I will avenge you, Father."
But thinking that he was just an ordinary person with no money and no ability, Wesley couldn't help but sob softly. His fingers stroked the mosaic corpse on the monitor.
"You, you, how could you just leave me with the code name X? You didn't even have the time to tell me your real name before you passed away, Father."
.....
Let's not talk about the sad and painful Wesley. Back to the morning of the second day after Wesley's separation, William, who was sleeping on the yacht, was woken up by Sunday. "Sir, the Spider Robot sent a message. Mr. X just woke up. According to the schedule, you should wake up too, lest you arrive at the Metropolis Building later than X."
"Got it." William stretched and got out of bed in a daze.
After parting with Wesley yesterday, he found it troublesome to stay on the yacht. He took off his pajamas and walked into the bathroom. As he took a shower, he asked, "Has Winston found the cannon fodder?"
"Mr. Winston found four American soldiers who retired less than two years ago. According to the plan, the four of them disguised themselves as construction workers last night and waited on the top floor of the Metropolis Building.
Ms. Thelma's office is facing the top floor of the Metropolis Building. I've already informed Mr. Carlos of the Cross to get ready. "
"Okay, got it." After spending some time washing up, William drove back to the yacht club. As soon as he got off the boat, he saw the manager of the yacht club, Martin Tanner, driving his car directly to the side of the yacht.
"Good morning, Mr. Devonshire. If you're in a hurry, a convenient breakfast is already prepared in the car."
"Thank you." Taking the car keys from Martin, Might smiled and patted him on the shoulder. "I heard your wife is pregnant again. Congratulations, Martin."
Then he covered his ears and said to Sunday, "Help me give Mr. Tanner's wife a gift."
"Okay, SRI."
Although Martin Tanner did not know who William had instructed to hold the gift, it was normal for rich people to have some high-tech items that he had never seen before. "Thank you. Thank you for your gift. Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Devonshire."
"You're welcome, Martin. Ambrosius has mentioned it to me many times. She's very satisfied with your work attitude and attentiveness, so you deserve it. See you tonight."
"See you tonight, sir." Martin opened the car door for William and watched the car disappear. Then, he jumped up excitedly and whispered, "Yes."
Driving and wearing the smart glasses, Mr. X's movements immediately appeared in William's eyes.
In order to better monitor all the members of the Assassin Brotherhood, William had released more than a dozen Black Bee UAVs over the past few days. More than a hundred Black Bees had been taking turns to monitor the textile factory and New York City 24/7.
Therefore, from the moment Mr. X left the textile factory, he was monitored by the Black Bees in the sky, the Spider Robots under the car, and the surveillance cameras in every street.
Fortunately, as William remembered, X went to the Metropolitan Building to look for Thelma.
Half an hour later, William walked to the top floor of a building 200 meters away from the Metropolitan Building. X's car appeared on the main road of this street.
After X parked the car, he walked into the building where Thelma was with a cautious and serious expression. Sunday reported.
"Sir, as you expected, the Assassin Brotherhood is lying in ambush nearby. Do you need me to send the Spider Robots to deal with these people?"
"Haha, it would be strange if they didn't come." William squinted at the Brotherhood's members shown on Sunday's smart glasses and laughed softly. "As long as they don't hinder us from killing X, we don't care about them."
"Okay, sir."
A few minutes later, X took the elevator to the 22nd floor and walked into Thelma's office.
Thelma, who was on the phone with a client, saw X coming in and could not help but show a terrified expression. She was not in the mood to care about the client on the phone.
"Don't worry, your name did not appear on the Loom of Fate. Otherwise, you would have met God long ago."
X ignored the nervous Thelma and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window in the office and stared at the top floor of the Metropolitan Building opposite the building.
Thelma heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that X was not looking for trouble. Thinking about it, if X really wanted to kill her, he would not talk so much nonsense.
Seeing that X was staring at the construction workers opposite, Thelma hung up the phone. "Don't worry, the Metropolitan Building submitted a maintenance application last week. Those workers leave at 9 a.m. every day and only start work at night."
After hearing this, X saw that the workers were indeed packing up their tools and were ready to get off work. Then, he turned around and took out a warhead from his pocket and placed it on Thelma's desk.
"Help me check the source of this warhead."
After saying this, X instinctively hid in the corner to avoid any possible shooting angles.
Thelma did not care about X's cautiousness and picked up the warhead and a magnifying glass to examine it carefully. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw it.
She looked at the warhead with an ugly expression and cursed, "Damn it, this warhead has a straight line."
"What do you mean?" X asked hurriedly.
"What I mean is, just based on the markings of this warhead, it was shot from a musket. In this world, the only people who still use a musket as a sniper rifle are the Crosshairs, Crosshairs, and Crosshairs."
"Get down." A ray of reflected light suddenly flashed through X's eyes who was hiding in the corner. X immediately understood that the workers opposite the building were assassins.
Unfortunately, he was still too late. "Puchi." Thelma, who was looking up, was shot in the head and fell to the ground with a plop.
"F * ck." Seeing that Thelma was dead, X revealed half of his face and glanced at the building opposite.
Then, there was a series of "puchi, puchi, puchi."
X lowered his body and rushed out of Thelma's office. However, unlike William's memory, he did not use his superpower to jump out of the building and kill the assassins opposite.
Instead, he wanted to take the elevator downstairs.
This surprised William, who was on the rooftop of another building 200 meters away. It only took a second for him to understand that what was happening now was different from what he remembered.
X glanced at the building and knew that Carlos of the Cross was not in the building opposite. He was not an idiot. He could tell that these assassins were bait to lure him into a trap.
However, before the elevator reached the 22nd floor, there was a sudden "puchi." A bullet hit the wall half a meter away from X. This made X instinctively lower his head.
"Puchi, puchi." There were two more sounds of bullets hitting the wall.
“FK”。
X turned his head and looked. From this angle, he could no longer see the top floor of the metropolis. He immediately misunderstood that the three shots were fired by Carlos of the Cross. If he did not dodge in time, the last shot would have hit him.
