Chapter 426: Mystery in the Metropolis (XII)

"So, you just hit him with your umbrella?"

Benjamin looked at Lionel's body. He could clearly see that there was a deep bruise on Lionel's jaw, which looked like it was caused by a blow, which was consistent with Schiller's description.

After blurting out the key points of the conversation with Lionel, Schiller briefly explained the communication process between him and Lionel. At the end, he said: "After knocking him down, I planned to leave directly, but before leaving, I saw that there seemed to be a shadow near the window..."

"Shadow?" Benjamin frowned and glanced at the people in the field, but to his surprise, Selena was the first to speak.

"I had my midnight snack and wanted to go out for a walk, but it was snowing outside and there were agents everywhere in the corridor, so I just jumped off the balcony."

Benjamin stared at Selena's beautiful face. There was no doubt that her facial features were delicate and she had a charm that made people unable to look away, but no matter how you looked at it, Selena was more like a socialite who should appear on the dance floor, rather than a female agent who could jump up and down on the surface of the building.

Benjamin was about to refute her when he felt a cool breeze on his face. With a "whoosh" sound, he turned around and saw a hairpin embedded in the brick seam of the wall behind him. Selena retracted her hand and raised her eyebrows. She said, "Don't ask me how I did it, just listen."

As Selena narrated, time slowly went back again, back to when Schiller knocked Lionel to the ground.

When Schiller turned to leave, he glanced at the French window behind him and saw a looming black shadow.

Schiller left the reception room without stopping. After the door of the reception room was closed, a figure crept in through the window. It was Selina who was about to install a bug.

Coincidentally, Selina and Bruce's room was right above the reception room. For Selina, this was the easiest target location to reach.

Moreover, there were many advantages to choosing the reception room as the first target. For example, if someone saw it, you could say that you were invited here.

"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"

But what Selina didn't expect was that as soon as she came in, she saw someone lying on the ground, and the murderer looked like he had just left. Seeing that Lionel was still moving, Selina looked at him curiously.

At this moment, Lionel finally recovered. He covered his chin with a grin, and tried to get up from the ground, and then saw Selina looking at him curiously.

Lionel shook his head. The moment he saw Selina's face, he was a little dazed, and then he remembered that this seemed to be Bruce's female companion.

He thought of what Schiller said about Selina, and then he spent some time to connect her identity, appearance and evaluation together.

At this moment, Selina suddenly realized that she seemed to be doing something bad, and Lionel was one of the organizers of this banquet.

So she turned around and wanted to run, but before she turned around, she saw that Lionel had a gun in his hand. At the moment Lionel stood up, Selina rolled to the side, and with a "bang", the dull sound of a silencer pistol sounded.

Lionel's suppressed emotions burst out in an instant. He kept shooting at Selina with a burst pistol, his eyes full of malice.

Lionel's shooting skills had not been specially trained, and his accuracy dropped rapidly as the target distance increased and his movement accelerated. There were only a few bullets in the pistol magazine. As he kept pulling the trigger as if to vent his emotions, the bullets were soon exhausted.

At this time, Selena stood up from behind the sofa, gathered her hair, put her hands on her hips, looked at Lionel and said, "We should have no grudges, right? I don't remember stealing anything from the Luther family."

Selena's tone was very light, because this was really a small scene for her.

At the beginning, when the four major gangs in the East District fought, and guns and bullets rained down, it did not stop her from stealing things.

Falcone and the Twelve Families governed the North District like an iron barrel, but they did not stop her from coming and going like the wind. The amount of exercise just now was not even a prelude to warming up for Selena.

But it was this attitude that completely angered Lionel. Originally, the image of Selena in his mind was just a useless socialite.

Lionel, who was rich enough to rival a country, had only ever seen these socialites trying to please him in every possible way. But now, Selena looked at him as if she was looking at a kid who went to a shooting camp and couldn't even hit the target.

Lionel had been stimulated too many times that night, and even the strongest psychological defenses collapsed.

He cursed loudly, using all the insulting words he could think of, and threw them at Selena.

If Selena was really a socialite, or the kind of rich ladies and wives that were common at dinner parties, they would be so angry that their faces would turn red, and they would curse in a low voice with harmless words like "hooligan", and then stamp their feet in anger until they turned around and ran away.

But Selena was not that kind of person. She grew up in the East District and lived in rap concerts almost every day. When it comes to the vocabulary of dirty words, Lionel, who grew up in the metropolis, could never be her opponent.

The first few words that Lionel spoke were insults to Selena's appearance and figure. Selena didn't care at all. But then, Lionel started to talk about her mother, and Selena immediately became furious. .

She stood there and blurted out a series of extremely intense and insulting curse words.

In the next two minutes, she didn't even need to stop to breathe. All kinds of insulting metaphors, English slang, and insulting jokes came out of her mouth. Three minutes after Lionel turned off the engine, Sai Lina was still scolding.

Knowing that there were no bullets in Lionel's gun, Selina simply walked over from behind the sofa, came to Lionel, pointed at his nose and cursed.

Her rapping skills, honed at the bottom of Gotham East, are not to be underestimated. Selena's witticisms lasted for more than ten minutes before she stopped.

She picked up a glass of wine from the table next to her, drank it down, wiped her mouth and said, "Thank you for this stupid old groundhog who looks like Joe's lace underwear. I haven’t had this much fun since Wayne Manor.”

Lionel's face turned red because he had never heard so many curse words in his life.

In the end, he couldn't help it anymore, completely gave up all the pretense of kindness, and completely tore off the gentleman's mask. He stretched out his hands, rushed towards Selina like a zombie, and waved his fists to hit her.

Selina bent down lightly to avoid his punch, then stood up again, picked up a vase from the decorative table next to her and swung it hard. With a "bang", the vase hit Leone directly. With blood splattering on Er's face, he fell to the ground.

Selina put one hand on her waist, threw the mouth of the vase on the ground, spat at Lyonel, turned and walked towards the window.

Halfway through, she seemed to have remembered something and ran back to Lionel's side, staring at his chest for a while.

Selina breathed a sigh of relief when she found that he was still breathing. If Bruce knew that she was killing someone here, and it was the party organizer, he would definitely be very angry.

After confirming that Lionel was not dead, Selina left with peace of mind. Her route back was the same as the route she took here, which was from outside the building. When she returned to the balcony of the room, she suddenly I heard some noise in the house.

Selena hurriedly leaned to the side and hid on the side of the balcony. At this time, she heard Benjamin's voice coming from the room.

"To sum up, it is very likely that Philby gave this list to his former colleagues or students. What I said in the hall before is that the list is likely to appear on the East Coast. This is indeed true, but Not specific..."

"From what we've seen, it's most likely in Gotham."

The room was quiet for a while, and Bruce's reply came: "Really?...Then you go check it out. Why are you looking for me?"

Benjamin was silent. What he was going to say next was not easy to say, but Bruce had no intention of continuing. Benjamin saw that Bruce was leaning on the bed, looking decadent, as if he had just taken a cigarette. It's like being addicted to medicine.

Benjamin's eyes fell on the pile of wine bottles. He frowned, and then he had to say straight to the point: "We need your help. Our agents once went to Gotham to investigate, but..."

Benjamin seemed to have remembered something, and his face became very ugly. When he looked at Bruce again, his attitude softened a little.

After all, compared with the contents of the reports of the agents who went to Gotham to investigate, Bruce was considered harmless.

Bruce snorted disdainfully and said, "You can't handle Gotham at all, right? This is the foresight of the Wayne family ancestors. You nasty agents... are like shit that you can't get rid of..."

Benjamin's face was a bit ugly, but he remained as patient as possible and explained to Bruce: "It is very likely that there is a Soviet agent of the same level as Kim Philby lurking in Gotham City, which is also important to the Wayne Group. There is no benefit, maybe, he may be planning to steal your group's secrets..."

"Stealing secrets?" Bruce snorted coldly and said, "You are really just a stupid agent. With a body as big as the Wayne Group, there are no secrets to steal..."

"I can let you experience my life for a day and inspect any factory in Weiwei Group. You can also make all the information you get public. I don't care at all..."

"Mr. Wayne, I don't know why you have so much malice towards agents, but I must emphasize the seriousness of this matter to you."

"Oh oh oh! It's the same thing again, everyone is telling me this, this thing is serious, that thing is serious too, please, can't you relax a little? Look what time it is now, it's already late at night !”

Bruce covered his eyes with his arms and said, "What's the difference between locking me here and asking questions and kidnapping me? I don't want to hear this!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Selina walked in at the right time. When she saw Benjamin, she was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said very dissatisfied: "Dear, what's going on? How could that be?" Are there any outsiders in our room?"

Bruce quickly jumped up from the bed, put his arm around Selina's waist, and said, "I can't help it. Who makes these flies-like agents always like to buzz outside?"

The two of them were already hugging each other, and Benjamin really couldn't stay any longer. He turned around with a dark face and walked out of the room.

"It seems that you didn't cause fatal harm to Mr. Luther."

In the reception room, Schiller looked into Selina's eyes. Selina lifted her hair and said, "I just wanted to give him a taste of color, not to kill him."

Said, Schiller turned his head to Benjamin again and said:

"Officer, if you want to get some help from us, you'd better show some sincerity, right?"
