I weave fate in parallel time and space

Chapter 541 Infiltrate
Night gradually enveloped the sky, and no stars or moon could be seen.

The dense fog shrouded this imperial capital with hundreds of years of history, making the city even more hazy, like an ink painting-like cityscape, full of mystery.In a daze, Xia Ya seemed to see what the imperial capital looked like hundreds of years ago.

However, compared to the darkness of the imperial capital at the moment, the palace seemed brightly lit.

So far, their purpose now is not to catch the murderer of the serial murder case, their purpose is to stop this plan.

Judging from the current situation, the murderer even found a helper in order to complete this plan, so this unblocking ceremony is time-limited.

In order to avoid any accidents, Mycroft enhanced the security of the entire palace to ensure the safety of the city.

There are many searchlights set up on the roof of the imperial capital to explore the lawns, and there are also many people in black suits patrolling many must-pass places.

These are all members of Britannia's secret intelligence agency. Their predecessors were either members of the special forces or soldiers who have experienced battlefields and have undergone the most professional training. The people they deal with are all terrorists and spies. , dealing with a serial killer is really a bit of a fuss.

But although the serial killer is not important, the existence behind him is very important.

It is undeniable that the palace is indeed huge.And due to historical reasons, there are many unknown secret passages inside the palace. Even people in the current Britannian government don't know if they have found all the secret passages.

However, people who are not members of the royal family will most likely not know these secret passages, so what should be considered is the intricate corridors and terrain of the palace.

The starless night and the dense fog shrouding the city also made the screening more difficult.

Perhaps the murderer was aware of the gradually increasing guarding of the palace and did not choose to leave for a long time.

In a secret room on the underground floor of the palace.

Mycroft sat in front of an office chair and looked at the screens in front of him. However, these screens were very thick and quite backward compared to those LCD screens that would be used in the 21st century.But in this day and age, these thick-looking screens are already very advanced.

Through the screen, he could see several thermal imaging surveillance cameras installed in the imperial capital, watching the scene in the courtyard.

Of course, the image quality of thermal imaging surveillance in this era was very poor, in a black and white color on the screen, and only a truly professionally trained person could tell the difference.

There are many radio communication devices around Mycroft. All agents patrolling a specific place will report to Mycroft every 10 minutes through this device.

"Zizzi~Zone A is normal."

"Zi~Zone C is normal."

"This is~ Area F is normal."

After a round of reporting, a voice appeared in the communication channel.

"Sir, will the target give up on tonight's operation?"

According to Sherlock's guess, the murderer risked being exposed and looked for a second person to help so urgently, which meant that he was in a hurry.And tonight happens to be a foggy day, which is the best weather for diving. ,

The killer is smart and proud, and he clearly has no fear of these agents.With his ability and his urgency, he won't miss the opportunity tonight.

"Don't let your guard down." Mycroft continued to give orders.

"Yes."

Soon, a voice came from the communication channel.

"Sir, some traces were found in Area B."

"Huh?" Mycroft's face showed a hint of interest, and he began to search for the location of Area B on the topographic map placed on the table.

That's the main entrance to the palace.

"Let me guess, is it the sewer?" Mycroft said.

"Yes, there are signs of looseness. He must have taken advantage of our patrol to hide in the palace. The target must have been observing us nearby for a long time. He is really a cunning fox."

"No matter how cunning he is, he will fall into our trap?" Mycroft whispered softly.

The person on the communication channel smiled disdainfully, "Does this guy think we are ordinary policemen? He actually dares to come in." Mycroft said nothing, but continued to stare at the surveillance channel in front of him.

In the seemingly intensive patrols of the palace, there are actually still some flaws, and most of these "flaws" are traps they set out deliberately to lure the target into a specific space.

At this time, the special forces hidden in the inner rooms of the palace also began to take action.

In the dark corridor, they couldn't see anything, but the night vision equipment of this era was not very advanced, so they couldn't see clearly.

However, after professional training, they can sense everything around them through the rest of their senses even in the dark.They lined up in two lines, sticking to the wall respectively, one person holding the other person's shoulder and moving forward slowly.

Finally, they separated at a crossroads and each stood in front of a gate.

They turned on the flashlights above their heads in perfect agreement, and the dark corridor began to light up again. Many beams of light illuminated the place very brightly.

But even so, they did not rush into the room immediately, but waited for orders from the special forces outside.

They stood on both sides of the door, adjusting their breathing. There was silence in the corridor, and you could hear a pin drop.

Soon, Mycroft's voice came from the communication channel on their ears.

"Go!"

The special forces on both sides of the door suddenly stood up and kicked the door open with their feet. At the same time, there was the sound of broken glass.

The special forces outside also broke through the window and rushed in and landed on the ground. They raised their guns together.

"Don't move!"

The dazzling light of the searchlights above the heads of the special forces illuminated the room.

And in the center of these lights, a bearded man looked at the special forces around him in panic, holding an unconscious man in his hands.Both of them looked a little dirty, as if they had just crawled out of the sewer.

The man reacted very quickly and directly picked up the unconscious man. He took out a gun from his waist and put it against his forehead. He shouted excitedly, "Don't come here. If you come here again, I will kill him." !”

The leader of the special forces said to Mycroft in the communication channel, "Sir, the target has taken a hostage and requests to be killed."

Mycroft's voice continued, "It's best to keep the hostages alive while ensuring their safety. We can kill them when necessary."

"Yes."

The special forces soldier raised his head and looked at the man. The dazzling searchlight made him unable to open his eyes.

His complexion was very poor, with thick dark circles and sunken eye sockets, his face was pale, as if he had not slept for many days, and his lips had no color.

Suddenly, the man grinned a slightly ferocious smile for no apparent reason, and actually raised the pistol in his hand and pointed it at the special forces soldier in front of him.

"Peng!"

With the sound of a gunshot, the special forces soldier on the other side chose to shoot directly. The bullet easily passed through his head, and the headshot was shot. The brain mixed with blood was splashed on the ground.

He opened his eyes slightly and fell straight to the ground, completely lifeless.

But even so, these special forces did not relax their vigilance at all. Instead, they approached slowly with guns, and then touched him lightly with their feet. After confirming that he was completely dead, the leading special forces reported to Mycroft.

"Sir, the target has been killed and the hostages have been rescued."

In the secret room, Mycroft looked at the surveillance system in front of him. He held his chin with the fingers of his hands intertwined, thinking quietly.In the dim space, a pair of bright eyes are particularly obvious.
There was no look of joy on his face, just an expression of not being surprised.

He silently took out a pack of cigarettes from his coat pocket, took one out and held it in his mouth, then he held it in his mouth.

"I see."
