Chapter 513 In the Dark
Although Lin Yu did not know the specific stage of the factional struggle in the Shenglan family at this moment and what the situation was, but since entering the Evernight City, Lin Yu had heard a lot about the "family meeting" of the Shenglan family.
The Shenglan family's "battle for the legitimate inheritance" must have reached a certain intense stage now.
Then the relationship between the eldest son Sheng Lanlai and the third son Sheng Lankui must have reached a certain point of indifference.
Lin Yu did not find the "assassination" commission about the Shenglan family, but he clearly remembered that before accepting the C-77 commission, he also heard the content of an "A-06 commission".
The content of this commission is to protect the steward of the third son of the Shenglan family from being assassinated when the family council of the Shenglan family is convened in a week.
If there is no possibility of being assassinated, why is this mission issued?

Therefore, someone must be eyeing this housekeeper.
Hearing Lin Yu's shouting, Sheng Lankui also reacted.
"You losers... watch the housekeeper!"
"Barry, are you okay?"
Sheng Lankui shouted, but Evernight Huole quickly reminded loudly: "Don't make any noise, Barry - stay quiet."
The restaurant is now very dimly lit.
For the sake of landscape, this garden restaurant almost uses a completely transparent ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows.
Although the lights are all turned off at this moment and it is pitch black, the neon light from outside can be reflected in.
Coupled with the several flashlights turned on by the bodyguards, it is not difficult to see the five fingers.
But in this low-light environment, everyone still turned into blurry silhouettes and outlines, and it was easy to identify who was who.
In such an environment, even with night vision equipment, it is difficult to find a specific person.
Lin Yu was a little surprised when he heard Wuyetian Huole's words.
"You and Sheng Lankui should be considered opposites... You should be supporting Sheng Lanlai, right?"
Evernight Huole nodded: "Yes."
"Then why do you want to remind Sheng Lankui that his heart is pure and kind?"
"Because from the perspective of Sheng Lanlai's interests, this housekeeper cannot die now," Wuyetian Huole said calmly, "This guy used to be a close associate of Sheng Lanlai. After betraying his master, he took refuge in Sheng Lankui... …”
"Then doesn't he deserve to die more?"
"It's useless if he dies. All the evidence he has has been handed over to Sheng Lankui. Killing him now will only become another impeachment stain at the family meeting." Evernight Huole breathed out, "Sheng Lankui Lan is different from the other four noble families. Because the main sphere of influence of the Sheng Lan family is in the Evernight City Council and the Executive Yuan, they have higher requirements for 'glossy appearance'... This butler must be killed, but there must also be a family meeting Kill after it’s over!”
"Sheng Lanlai is not an idiot, he still understands this truth!"
"If someone wants to kill him, it can only be the third person besides Sheng Lanlai and Sheng Lankui... After all, although the remaining people are not as likely to win as the two of them, they are not completely hopeless."
Wuyetian Huole analyzed and said, Lin Yu nodded.
"I understand. Killing one person can attack two factions at the same time, so he is indeed a popular assassination target..."
It seems that the higher you climb in the city that never sleeps, the more dangerous it becomes.
Being born into a noble family does not mean that you have peace of mind.
Be it the butler named "Barry" or Art Mercury, their lives themselves have become a kind of bet.
"So, you want me to keep this guy?"
Lin Yu asked, and Wuye Tianhuole replied: "It's best not to let him die here..."
But after a pause, Wuye Tianhuole said again: "But you should give priority to ensuring your own safety - the power has not been restored yet, which shows that the other party is well prepared."
As Wuyetian Huole said, Lin Yu also nodded.
"It's a little strange...not only has the power not been restored, but there's also no movement."
No one broke windows, no one screamed, which meant no intruders and no victims.
There was no sound of explosions or fighting, which meant that no one was fighting with the bodyguards.
At this moment, Lin Yu even had an idea...
"Could it really be just an ordinary power outage? Are we scaring ourselves?"
After all, considering that he had just teamed up with Baron Coleman to blow up the largest energy supply system in the entire Evernight City, the entire Evernight City is now equivalent to using the backup energy system of the previous generation to support and continue to build it. New energy supply network…
It doesn't seem impossible that something could go wrong with the current power system.
Of course, this possibility is a small probability event after all.
So considering that there is really an assassin who caused the blackout, there is probably only one reason why there is no movement yet...
This is a very patient hunter.
And he has been secretly waiting for the opportunity.
"Stay here and don't move."
Lin Yu said, patted the Evernight Sky Fire Music, stood up and walked towards the direction of the Evernight Sky Fire Tree and Sheng Lankui.
"What are you going to do?"
Evernight Huole stood up, looked at Lin Yu, and spoke in surprise.
"Hey, it's very dangerous now, don't move around."
Evernight Huole looked at Lin Yu, who was paying no attention, and then looked at the bodyguard next to him: "Stop Forpolo!"
She said, and the two bodyguards immediately walked towards Forpolo's direction.
"Mr. Forboluo, please..."
But as soon as the words fell, the two bodyguards were stunned.
In the Never-Sleeping City, anyone who has a relationship with the five nobles is basically the best and the top.
Those who can serve as bodyguards for the royal nobles are the emperors among bodyguards and the pinnacle of the security industry.
They are all professionals, and they will basically not waver, especially they will not show their helpless side to their employers.
But this time the situation is too special.
"Respected Mr. Forboluo, he disappeared!"
In the darkness, Lin Yu's figure suddenly disappeared.
Buyetian Huo Le was also surprised-because she also witnessed the whole process of Lin Yu's disappearance.
It seemed that a shadow appeared on his hand, and then disappeared!
"It looks like the [Corner of Shadows] in Lab 6," Huo Le of the Nightless Sky thought in shock, "but... wasn't this thing shelved before it was put into production because of the high cost? There should only be one prototype!"
"Did Paris give it to him?"
"Or is it his other means as a visitor from another world?"
But no matter what, this is the first time that Huo Le of the Nightless Sky has seen "Forbolo" have such means.
And...
"What on earth do you want to do, Forbolo?!"
