Chapter 3235: The Shadow of Faraines (Thirty-two)
The Pale Knight watched Bruce roll several appearance dice, and most of them were successful. He should have used the points from previous battles to choose charm-related skills. Anyway, he interacted with the woman back and forth and soon fooled her to the point where she was at a loss.
After the woman left, two or three more groups of reporters came, obviously they all smelled big news. Bruce had a pleasant chat with them and revealed old Sirtek's secrets in a few words.
His previous incitement also had a good effect. After nightfall, several figures were seen peeking at the intersection. This of course could not be hidden from the eyes of the reporters. Bruce saw several familiar figures getting into the reporters' cars.
Seeing that the time was almost up, they returned to their car. Bruce said as he packed up his equipment, "If the church wants to kill old Sirtek, tomorrow's interview is the best time. They will definitely scout the location in advance tonight."
Watching Bruce's actions, the Pale Knight said, "Are you planning on going in?"
"I'm worried if they take action," Bruce said. "It's not that I look down on the church, but if they want to create some weird incident to cover up the assassination as usual, old Sirtek, who has been prepared for a long time, will not let them succeed."
The Pale Knight nodded. He felt that what Bruce said made sense. Then he asked, "How can you be sure that the people in the church will release strange events instead of just shooting him dead?"
"The church has been doing this for decades, which makes them inertial. What I mean is that they only train people who deal with strange events, but not real killers, because compared to releasing strange events, killing people directly is dangerous and inefficient."
"Are you planning to intercept?"
"That's right. If the other party wants to take action, he must have something in his hand. I mean the kind of thing that can trigger strange events." Bruce got out of the car and the Pale Knight followed behind him.
"What do you think that would be?"
"I don't know either, but I think it should be safe before that thing is actually activated. If we can get that thing, the initiative will be in our hands."
The Pale Knight held up his gun and said, "What do you need me to do?"
Bruce walked forward, looked back at him and said, "Did you kill anyone?"
"Can you please look at who I am before asking this question?"
"Don't mind, it's just that you look more like Batman than Batman does, so I had to ask."
"All I can say is that I have killed people before, but now I won't kill unless necessary."
"Necessary means..."
"I usually only kill in self-defense. If the person does not threaten my life, I will at most knock him out."
"Got it, passive defensive type, give me the gun."
"You killed someone?" the Pale Knight looked up at him and asked.
"Whether I kill or not depends mainly on God's mood."
"What do you mean?"
"You see, in this game we roll the dice when we shoot, right?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Then whether we kill someone or not depends on the number on the dice. We fired the gun, but whether the bullet can hit the opponent's vital point actually depends on luck, right?"
"Well... that makes sense."
"Luck is determined by God." Bruce said after taking the gun, "Which means it's not me who kills people, but God."
"I see that," said the Pale Knight.
"What did you see?"
"Not only do you kill people, you are also good at making excuses."
Bruce rolled his eyes and said, "If God wants to stop me, then he should stand up. If he doesn't, then he just wants more people to accompany him. I just fulfilled God's wish. You can't simply understand this as killing."
"Can you be more shameless?" asked the Pale Knight.
"Of course, I chose the shooting skill."
"So it's almost certain to win?"
"Yes."
"Then you still say it depends on God's mood?"
"If God was in a bad mood, he should have stepped out to stop me when I clicked on the skill, but he didn't."
The Pale Knight didn't want to talk to him anymore, he even took a few quick steps, trying to stay away from Bruce.
"Well, God is too far away from me." Bruce sighed, but then he changed the subject and said, "But God's eldest son is watching me in my mind now, and he didn't do anything to stop it. You can't blame me for this, right?"
The Pale Knight saw that he seemed to be looking at something dirty. After he climbed over the wall of the TV broadcasting center, he said to Bruce, "I still have some medicine left. You can try it after the game is over. It should help your current situation."
Bruce pretended not to hear what he said, walked around the security booth with his gun in hand, turned the handle of the side door, and found that it was not locked. He opened the door a crack and squeezed in.
In order to prevent being monitored by TV stations, they had taken off their expensive clothes during the day, changed back into their original clothes, and covered their faces. This was actually mainly to deceive the church.
The TV station was not very big. Bruce led the Pale Knight around the first floor. Not finding any suspicious people, they went to the second floor window to stare. Just after midnight, a car parked stealthily in the nearby woods.
Several people got out of the car, one of them came to the main gate to attract the security guard's attention, and the other two also climbed in from the backyard.
After the security guard was led away, the last person came in pushing a small cart. The box in the cart obviously contained the things they were going to arrange.
"There are quite a lot of people coming." Bruce said, stroking the trigger of his rifle, "How many can you lead away at most?"
"It depends on their vigilance, but it seems that they are not on guard. I think there may be three of them." The Pale Knight made an assessment and said, "The remaining one may be a technician. Maybe you don't need to kill him. It's better to keep him and ask him some questions."
"I'll try my best." Bruce said, "This gun doesn't have a silencer. Once it's fired, it will definitely make a lot of noise. I'd better give it to you."
Bruce put the rifle back into the hands of the Pale Knight, and the two of them split into two groups, leading these men away separately before they met up.
The Pale Knight's operation was very successful. The two men who came in from the backyard were led away by him before they could go upstairs.
The man who attracted the security guard was a little late, and the man pushing the cart came in first. When Bruce saw this situation, he knew that they were not very professional, or they had never been on any dangerous missions, which left such an obvious flaw.
He directly hijacked the person pushing the cart, and when the person who attracted the security guard came back, he found that his companion and the cart had disappeared.
Bruce first strangled the man pushing the cart and threw him into the utility room and locked the door, then opened the box of the cart.
However, what disappointed him was that there seemed to be some props for camouflage, such as foam boards, nail guns, glue, etc., and there were no key props at first glance.
Although the church is not well prepared, it is still very cunning. It is estimated that the key prop is in the hands of another person.
After a little thought, Bruce roughly understood their thinking. It should be that using or triggering this prop requires some disguise. The two people who came in through the front door should be the disguise group, and the two people who climbed in from the backyard were the ones who carried the key props and were preparing to find a place to stay.
The Pale Rider also discovered this, because one of the two men he led away was particularly furtive, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he had something in his arms.
Originally, the Pale Knight planned to lead the people away and then get rid of them, but looking at the current situation, there must be something fishy, and he didn't intend to leave everything to Bruce to solve, so after getting rid of them, he went around and came behind them.
First, he knocked one of them unconscious while they were not prepared. When he wanted to deal with the other one, he rolled the dice but failed and the sneak attack was not successful.
Fortunately, the Pale Knight had a gun in his hand, so he left the man with the key props to be dealt with last. This guy was not a tough guy. Looking at the black muzzle of the gun, he handed over the thing in his arms helplessly.
That's a house number.
When the Pale Knight saw the doorplate, he was stunned for a moment, because he remembered that Schiller seemed to have a similar one in his hand.
So this thing is the source of the weirdness?
The Pale Knight thought it was not that simple, so he launched another surprise attack, knocked out the remaining man, searched both of them, and finally found several screws wrapped in paper in the pocket of the man holding the doorplate.
Looking at the screws and the holes on the doorplate, the Pale Knight roughly knew how this thing was used, but he did not act rashly. He dragged the two men into a remote room and locked them up.
Only after the Pale Knight and Bruce met on the second floor did they have a chance to take a closer look at the doorplate, which read "1011".
Bruce had also found clues related to the hotel when he was surfing the Internet before. Although he didn't know the situation as well as Schiller, he could roughly guess what was going on.
Bruce just asked the Pale Knight to put away the doorplate and go back to the car first. After all, it was not safe to carry such an important thing on him. He then went to the venue for the recording of tomorrow's news program.
Because the recording will start early tomorrow morning, the venue has already been set up tonight. Bruce walked around inside and finally climbed up to the ventilation duct above through the shelf behind the news background board, and then followed the ventilation duct to the ventilation duct exit on the other side of the venue.
First, I removed the fence at the exit and took a look at the field of vision. I found that there was an unobstructed sniper path leading directly to the seats. It was the golden shooting distance, and the hit rate of shooting at this distance was basically 100%.
Bruce calibrated it several times, set up the gun, and then installed the fence gate. Now there were only a few hours left before the interview started, so he just waited here.
The Pale Knight observed the situation outside. At about 4:5 in the morning, staff members began to walk into the TV station one after another. At 00:, important hosts and experts arrived.
At about 5:30, a car drove into the gate of the TV station. The surrounding reporters immediately moved and blocked the door of the TV station to ask old Sirtek, who was sitting in the car, all kinds of questions.
Looking at the familiar face, the Pale Knight felt relieved. At the same time, he saw a group of people rushing in from the side door of the TV station despite the security guards' obstruction.
They were holding all kinds of signs in their hands and had expressions of grief and anger on their faces. They were the same group of people that Bruce had instigated yesterday. Ms. Theresa took the lead and rushed forward to scratch the security guard's face. The people behind her broke through the side door and ran all the way to the venue.
When the reporters saw that they had been breached from the side, they stopped harassing the security guards at the main entrance and quickly went around them, following the protesting crowd with their cameras in hand, and rushed towards the venue in a huge crowd.
