Vol 2 Chapter 278: Cleanup

The night continues.
Two figures appeared on a remote street in White Rock City-Somen and Mu Ke Ni.
The two talked in a low voice while walking.
Mu Ke Ni voiced, complained a little: "Let me say that what you did to the auctioneer before is completely superfluous."
"That's to ensure the accuracy of the information." Suomendao.
"But the problem is that the information received is of no value-all we have guessed-the book of "confidential grade", the auction house did give it to the kid, but I don’t know how, and was lost by the kid. Only."
"..." Somen was silent, and there was a loud noise. "Anyway, pay attention to this matter. I will report the situation when I finish today's task."
"As for such a fuss?" Mu Ke Ni rolled his eyes, very disdainful.
"It's not a fuss, it's the organization's regulations." Sormen said. "Although I know that many of the people above are formal, even if I report it, they don't necessarily read it. But I do my job well. Well, if something goes wrong, they won’t be able to trouble me.

"Anyway." Mu Ke Ni shrugged, glancing at the front. "Eh, yes, is it somewhere? The goal is in this house, right?"
Talking, Mu Ke Ni stopped in front of a small courtyard built by Bai Shilei.
Suomen stopped, looked at the courtyard, and nodded. "Well, it is."
"That's good, get things done early and rest early." Mu Ke Ni said, stepping closer to the courtyard door, knocked on the door.
...
In the courtyard, a large study room is lit with many candles, which are brightly lit.
In the middle of the room, there is a table with many gears, foils, wires and other parts.
An old man with a wrinkled face now rickets his body and fiddles with these parts. As he fiddled, a fist-sized precision machine gradually took shape.
After a while, the old man put the assembly of the machine on the table. I don’t know where I pressed it. The many gears on the machine turned and made a "click-click" sound.
"call--"
The wrinkled old man looked at the mechanic and exhaled with a satisfied expression. At this moment, the courtyard door was knocked outside.
"Bang Bang! Bang Bang Bang!"
"Huh?" The old man's eyes flashed, puzzled, not knowing how late it was, how could anyone come to him.
Glancing at the stable machinery, the old man could not guess the identity and intention of the knocker, frowned and pushed open the door, and walked out.
As he walked to the door of the courtyard, the old man opened the door with a squeak, looked out, and saw the darkness and desertion of the remote street.
The old man frowned, closed the courtyard door, and murmured and walked back to the study.
"Really, now the children are getting more and more annoying. They are still sleeping late, knocking on the door and making mischief." The old man said, and walked into the study, "that is, I was not caught, otherwise it must be Spank very hard... quack!"
The old man's words came to an abrupt halt, because he saw two people inexplicably in the study, one man and one woman.
Among them, the woman was holding the machine he assembled slightly curiously, while the man was unkindly rummaging through the things in his room.
"You guys!" The old man's eyes widened, and he felt some blood rising, yelling out loud, "When did you two thieves come in! Hurry... hurry, get out! You... you , Don’t touch my baby, and you guy, don’t turn over my books and scrolls."
The old man shouted loudly, but the man and the woman were unmoved at all, and continued to do their own thing, not looking at him at all.
The old man was angry, glanced at his eyes, and saw a black wooden walking stick in the corner of the wall, copied it, and hit the woman viciously. At this moment, the old man didn't have any feeling of pitying Xiangxixiyu, but wanted to knock down the woman who dared to touch his baby and grab the baby back.
But he held down the wooden walking stick, and the woman stretched out her hand and waved it gently. With a clatter, the wooden walking stick broke in the air.
"You! This!" The old man's eyes were round, holding the little wooden stick left in his hand, looking at the woman, and then the man, and realized what was happening, "You are... wizards?"
No one answered his words.
The man turned over the bookshelf to find several scrolls of papyrus, walked over, opened and swayed in front of his eyes, and asked aloud: "The content on this scroll is what you are studying?"
"amount……"
"That's good." The man shook his hand, and the scroll disappeared without a trace.
At this time, the woman holding the mechanical creation made a chuckle, and with one hand, the machine in her hand suddenly deformed. The gears, wires, and other parts that were perfectly embedded in the machine were flying in all directions.
"No!" The old man saw it, glaring at him, trembling all over, not knowing whether it was anger or fear, watching the men and women yelling, "Who the are you?! Why do you do this?!"
The man finally answered: "We are the ones who killed you. As for why, it is very simple, because... well, some things, some people should not appear in this world."
"but……"
"No, goodbye," the man said, stepping up and walking up to the old man, gently touching the old man's eyebrows.
The old man shook suddenly, his body fell backwards straight, slammed on the ground, a blood hole appeared in the center of his eyebrows, and there was a continuous flow of blood.
The man looked at it, shook his head gently, extended his finger in the air, and a golden flame burst out.
At the next moment, a finger flicked, the flame flew out, suspended in midair, and burned quietly.
"Leave." The man said to the woman~EbookFREE.me~ got it. The woman made a noise, walked out of the study, and left the courtyard with the man.
It didn't take long for flames several meters high to rise from the courtyard and burn down the entire courtyard. The fire could be seen clearly across thousands of kilometers.
...
"Brush!"
Two black shadows flew by in the night, landing on the street, looking at the burning courtyard, eyes narrowed.
"Anything else happened." The first black figure shook his head and sighed.
"It's not quite flat lately." The second black figure echoed, and his voice was solemn. "Some people in the city seem to need to beat and beat."
"I hope this time, don't be fooled by those people." The first shadow said worried.
"Weird things can't be stopped, we can do our own thing well." The second shadow looked a little bit off. "Okay, the situation is not serious. Let the rest investigate slowly and we can leave."
"Well." The first black shadow nodded, and the second black shadow turned around and left.
As a result, just a few steps away, the second black figure suddenly thought of something, suddenly turned around, and slapped his head: "Ah, I almost forgot."
With a wave of his hand, a silvery white light flew out and shot into the burning flame.
A cherry-sized ice core was wrapped in the silver-white light, and it exploded as soon as it touched the flame. With the sound of "bang", the whole courtyard was fluttered with goose feather-like snowflakes, which caused the temperature to decrease rapidly, the flame was pressed down and extinguished, and a thin layer of ice formed on the ground of the entire courtyard.
The second black figure looked at it and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, it should be fine now, you can really go."
"amount……"
"Brush!"
The two shadows leapt into the air and flew towards the distance in the night.
