my stealth fighter

Chapter 389
Catherine didn't know what was going on. After being woken up by her sister, she thought it was Lilith who was attacking. She picked up the cross sword standing beside the bed and followed No. 33 and Jiang Chanji to the top of the opposite building.

She drew her sword and looked around in a daze. She looked around, but she didn't see Lilith in her imagination.

She didn't dare to be careless, because if it was Lilith, she would be so fast that she could jump over and attack from another building in the blink of an eye.

"What's the matter?" she asked in a low voice.

No. 33 did not expect that both Jiang Chanji and Catherine would run out. She was standing on the edge of the roof, looking at the possibility of being blown down by a gust of wind at any moment, but she could only stand here because she thought that the peeping party was right there. A window on a certain floor.

She glanced down at the windows one by one, and said casually, "Someone is peeping."

"Peeping Tom?" Catherine obviously thought wrongly.

No. 33 didn't know how to answer, she didn't know who was peeping, and the possibility of voyeurism also existed.

It was not late at night, some residents of the apartment building and the residential building under their feet had lights on, there were still many vehicles and pedestrians in the streets and alleys, and car horns sounded occasionally.

Suddenly, there was an extremely slight sound in the night sky. It didn't come from under their feet, but from behind them. If they hadn't been concentrating on finding the enemy, they might not have noticed this small sound of breaking wind.

"who!"

Catherine has sharp eyes and quick hands, and the cross sword has the advantage of length, so she turns around and swings the sword to block the incoming object.

With a crisp ding, something like a piece of metal fell on the roof.

"Shuriken!"

Jiang Chanji exclaimed.

He saw her using this Japanese-specific hidden weapon in the battle with Kali on the 33rd, so he recognized it immediately. There are many styles of shurikens, and the one in front of him is the same as the shuriken style used by No. 33. Exactly the same, it is a special system for ninjas.

Catherine had never dealt with ninjas before, and this was the first time she saw a shuriken. This uncommon Chinese word made her unable to realize what it was for a while.

But whatever it was, at least she could tell by its sharp edge that it was some kind of ranged throwing weapon, and that it came from behind, proving the enemy came from behind too.

She held the cross sword and was ready to face the direction where the shuriken was flying, but at this time, No. 33 ran in another direction, and so did Jiang Chanji.

Catherine was taken aback for a moment, wondering what they had discovered, and hesitated whether to follow.

Jiang Chanji took a big step, stopped his body urgently, turned his head and said to Catherine: "Catherine, you go back, be careful that the other party leads the tiger away from the mountain, and wake up Yiyi by the way."

Catherine did have this kind of worry. Once all three of them left, Arabella and Chen Yiyi would be too weak.

"it is good."

She nodded and watched the two of them disappear into the night in the blink of an eye, then bent down to pick up the shuriken on the ground.

Looking down at the shape of the shuriken, she seemed to understand that such a strange shape would make the shuriken like a boomerang. Through high-speed rotation and wind resistance, it could turn itself during flight, so the shuriken struck The direction of the voyeur is not the actual location of the voyeur, but just a trick.

Perhaps when they jumped out of the window, the peepers hidden in the dark had quietly thrown the shuriken, and when they fell to the roof, the shuriken just circled around.

The voyeurs have a delicate mind, and they respond quickly when they are discovered, and they have calculated their location correctly.

Due to inexperience, she had never seen such a weird oriental hidden weapon before, so Catherine was fooled, but No. 33 and Jiang Chanji were not fooled.

The light in Chen Yiyi's room was on, and she probably woke up when she heard the crisp sound of the shuriken colliding with the cross sword.

Arabella's room was still dark because it didn't matter to her whether the lights were on or not.

Annoyed, Catherine jumped to the roof of the apartment building with her shuriken, and then went back to the room to explain the situation to Chen Yiyi and her sister.

On the 33rd, before Catherine shot down the shuriken, she had already judged that it was a shuriken through the familiar sound of breaking wind. Unfortunately, she is now wearing the school uniform of Hongye College, and there is no place to put her own hidden weapon, otherwise she can use it in her hand. The sword knocks down the shuriken.

At the same time that the shuriken was shot down, under the bright moonlight, she saw a vague light and shadow move, running towards the opposite direction from where the shuriken came.

No. 33 was finally completely sure that the other party was also a ninja.

Before the light and shadow moved, it almost perfectly blended into the shadow under the moonlight. It seemed to be leaning against an outdoor unit of an air conditioner. If she didn't move, it would be difficult for No. 33 to spot her in a short time.

But she can only move, because there are three people on the other side. As long as a carpet search is carried out on this side of the residential building, she will be found sooner or later. , running in the opposite direction.

The light and shadow were very faint. If it wasn't for the bright moonlight tonight and No. 33 being condescending, they might not be able to see this light and shadow, just like Jiang Chanji didn't see No. 33 when they met for the first time.

The ninja ran ahead, while No. 33 and Jiang Chanji were chasing after him. The other party was very cunning, and found that Jiang Chanji was very fast, so instead of jumping on the roof, he walked through the streets, shuttling between pedestrians and traffic, Although it seems that it may hit people or cars at any time, it is actually easy to do, just like swimming fish can easily avoid the rocks in the river, and sometimes stop and turn suddenly, using the eaves and tree crowns to cover their own body.

Several times, she got rid of No. 33. This is not to say that her physical fitness or anti-tracking skills are much better than No. 33, but that the escaper always takes the initiative, but Jiang Chanji is like a maggot attached to the bone. He can't get rid of it, and he is occasionally deceived by her fake moves, but the general tracking direction has always been correct, so even if she pulls him away, he will soon catch up.

No. 33 and Jiang Chanji have been jumping on the roof all the time, and gradually surrounded her from left to right, making her unable to make a turn, and could only run straight forward, and soon ran from the suburb where the apartment building is to the remote suburb where there are few people. .

In the open suburbs, pedestrians and vehicles are greatly reduced.

Jiang Chanji was full of energy, and at the same time accelerated suddenly, jumped high, drew the bow and stringed in the air, accompanied by a shrill scream, a sharp arrow pierced into the soil in front of the light and shadow, which was undoubtedly a warning to her, if Run again, the next arrow will not have eyes, although she may avoid it, but he still has a lot of arrows, she can't escape while hiding the arrows, and will be caught up soon For the dignity of both parties, it is better to stop obediently.

Sure enough, she stopped.

After the light and shadow returned to stillness, she could hardly be seen.

"Call the number!"

No. 33 held the double knives with horns backwards. She didn't want to face her colleagues with swords, but the other party made the first move, and the other party might be a potential traitor. There is nothing to be tolerant of. At the hands of the traitor, she burst into anger.

Jiang Chanji maintained the posture of bowing, standing aside and watching the changes.

"Who is she?" Ninja finally said, "And what about your Hongye Academy uniform? When I saw you on TV, I thought you didn't join Hongye Academy. Honored?"

No. 33 was slightly embarrassed. Although she had a clear conscience, it still made her uncomfortable to be criticized by her colleagues face to face.

"You don't need to worry about what clothes I wear, but I can tell you that I wear this for the convenience of mobility, and I have obtained the approval of the Suzerain in advance." No. 33 said.

"Heh~ Anyway, the suzerain's whereabouts are unknown now, why don't you just say what you want?" The other party spoke with sarcasm.

No. 33 tried hard to recall its serial number from the other party's voice. She must have heard this voice before, but they were not familiar with each other, at least they were definitely not from the same training camp.

"Believe it or not, I don't need to explain to you." No. 33 pointed at her with a short knife, "Now it's your turn to explain why you are here, why do you want to spy on me in such a sneaky way, otherwise I can only see you Punish as a traitor."

"Heh~ If you were me, wouldn't you be more careful when you saw that the most popular colleague who almost debuted in the C position in the society was wearing the uniform of another organization in private?"

The other party retorted and got to the point all of a sudden, making No. 33 speechless.

Indeed, if they transpose with each other, number 33 will also feel suspicious, and will probably observe secretly before deciding on the next move.

"As I said, I wear this clothes for the convenience of movement." Number 33 repeated, but his tone softened, "I'm sorry if I misunderstood you, but everything I said is true, my lord You already know about it in advance, and when you find the Sovereign, you can ask her personally for confirmation."

The other party snorted, and didn't continue to dwell on this question, "Who is she? Don't make me ask it a third time."

"A friend," Number 33 said simply.

"Friend?" The sarcasm in the other party's tone became stronger, "It seems that your life here is very comfortable, and you have time to make friends."

In fact, due to their erratic whereabouts, the ninjas lurked in one place to perform the task of collecting intelligence, and either returned to the country to report on their duties, or were soon sent to another place to continue to perform other tasks. They almost never showed their faces , and no time to make friends.

No. 33 was at a loss for words again. Since the suzerain disappeared, she has reflected on it countless times. She hates herself for being addicted to a comfortable life and losing her vigilance.

"Looks like I got it right, you really enjoy living here." The other party sneered, "When I saw you from a distance in front of that apartment building, I wasn't sure if you were No. 33, because you gave I felt so foreign, too foreign to be a ninja, and I suspected someone else was on TV."

"You made the anonymous call?" asked No. 33.

"Who else can it be?" The other party asked back, "I have to call to confirm. When I saw you on the phone, I was sure that you were No. 33, at least the shell of No. 33. I don't know if the contents of the shell are real or not. It's been replaced with something else."

The two of them spoke in Japanese, and Jiang Chanji didn't understand a single word, but he could tell that the tone of the two of them was not as if they were communicating in a friendly way.

"Cough!" He interrupted with a dry cough, "Can you speak Chinese?"

He knew that ninjas counted the main languages ​​accurately, so there was no reason why the other party could not understand him.

In fact, No. 33 didn't want him to intervene, or even want him to be present. After all, this was an internal matter of the Ninja Academy, but even if he was asked to go back now, he probably wouldn't listen.

"Okay, I don't mind." The other party immediately changed to Chinese and looked him up and down, "Are you a student of Hongye Academy? Or some ninja I have never met, who also wore Hongye out of some 'needs' The school uniform?"

Jiang Chanji is really not wearing a school uniform now, but listening to the other party, he guessed that the other party should have seen him during the day, and he could hear the other party's tone full of sarcasm towards No. 33, no wonder No. downwind.

"I am indeed a student of Hongye College. As for the matter of wearing a school uniform on the 33rd, your suzerain knew and agreed in advance. If you don't believe me, the teacher Li Muqin of this school can prove it for the 33rd. If necessary, the head of the school can also Li Muqin The reputation of the teacher is a guarantee, if you are willing to go to school with us, you should be able to get satisfactory results." Jiang Chanji said, "I don't know why you came here, you don't have to believe me, you don't have to believe No. 33 , but if you even question the dean’s words, then you can go home, because you won’t believe anything we say.”

This time it was the other party's turn to be at a loss for words, and it was all said and done. If she didn't believe it and refused to follow them, it would appear that she was suspicious and timid. She definitely had no right to question the authority of the head of the school.

"You can easily prove my words after the return of the suzerain, but you insist on talking about it. Is it because you don't believe that the suzerain can return safely?" No. 33 finally found a chance to fight back.

"Hmph, forget it, put this matter aside for now, let's just say I trust you." The other party's tone finally softened.

No. 33 took advantage of the victory and pursued, "You have asked me so many questions, as a courtesy, is it time to reveal your identity?"

This time the other party didn't talk nonsense.

Under the moonlight, a figure appeared out of nowhere in the air, from blurry to clear, the body reflected colorful black, like a thin layer of oily water splashing on the asphalt road, and finally turned into pure black.

It was not the first time Jiang Chanji had seen a ninja appear, and he still couldn't take his eyes off it.

The opponent is slightly taller than No. 33, and the chest shape outlined by the tight ninja suit is also taller—it’s not that he knows people by his chest, otherwise he is wrapped in black clothes from head to toe, and his figure is very well-proportioned and tight. What other features can be discerned?
No. 33 stared at the other party, and when the other party fully appeared, she also saw the secret mark on the other party's ninja suit.

"Number 22!"
