Chapter 265 Ling Under the Moon
Chapter 266: Ling Under the Moon

boom! ! ! !

Soon, not long after Shiho and I climbed up the chimney, a loud explosion sounded in the room. At the same time, I supported myself with one hand and two feet while I was climbing up, and I used one hand to hold Shiho in my arms. The explosion range of the grenade was not large, but the strong liquor around it would produce a huge air wave when it burned. This air wave mixed with high temperature rushed straight to the chimney, forcing me to stop and protect Shiho.

"Ice...them."

"Shh..." I interrupted Shiho and whispered in her ear, "Hold on to me and hold your breath."

"Yeah." Shiho responded softly, and then she grabbed me tightly and hung on me. With one hand free, I took out the gun from the necklace and aimed downward. If there was any movement below, I would definitely shoot without hesitation. As long as... that person was not Ling.

Tsk, tsk. Tsk.

"Ahem... Brother. Pisco is dead!" Soon after the sound of a fire extinguisher, I heard a rough voice along the chimney. It was Vodka's voice. He said that, which proved that Gin was here at this time.

"Humph, this old thing was killed." After Vodka finished speaking, Gin's cold voice came over. "It seems that the woman came prepared. Hey, are you sure it's that woman?"

"Haha, don't ask me if I'm sure first. Ask you first if you will believe it?" A charming female voice came over.

"Hmph." Gin snorted coldly and gave an order. "Retreat. With such a loud explosion, the police will be here soon. You deal with Pisco's body." After that, there was only the sound of footsteps, and then the room became quiet.

"Sister Bei..." I frowned. Judging from what she just said, Shiho might have been exposed. If that was the case... Never mind, let's get out of here first. The explosion of the grenade will definitely attract the police, and we can't meet the police at this time. So I waited in the fireplace for about three minutes, and then I continued to climb up.

"Bing...have I been exposed?" Shiho saw that I was moving, so she asked me worriedly.

"I don't know. It depends on whether Vermouth's mysticism can continue." I gave Shiho an ambiguous answer. "Anyway, we'll do our best and leave the rest to fate. If it doesn't work... I'll just..."

"What about Ling?" Shiho asked the question that hit home directly.

"Well...if we can save Ling while killing Gin and the others, then there's no harm in telling her the truth. But the problem is. We can't reveal our whereabouts to others. Otherwise, no matter who we encounter, everyone present must be killed."

"Gin, Vodka, Vermouth. Plus Ling... If I'm really exposed, you'll have to face these four enemies at the same time, not to mention the involvement of other subordinates." Shiho said worriedly. "Bing, if this really happens, just leave me and run away. The farther the better, at least you can still... Um... What are you doing! It hurts!" Before Shiho finished her words, I had already opened my mouth and gently bit her lips.

"Bite off what you are going to say, so you don't have to say anything extra." I licked my lips. "Let's go. At least we are safe now. If we are really exposed, I will fight the organization to the death even if I have to use all my trump cards. Don't forget, I am the Ice Demon who was once ranked one of the best in the organization. Even if my body has become smaller, I am still the IceWine with a 100% mission success rate!"

————The scent of orchids, the scent of lavender, the scent of home & the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians————

Boom. Boom!!!

After a loud noise, I flipped the chimney cover over, and Shiho and I climbed out of the chimney one after the other. What caught my eye was a white expanse of snow, and the snow was flying all over the sky. It should be the top floor of the old building.

"Hu...Hu...Bing, I..."

"Shh..." Shiho's breath was still not even. I stretched out my finger and pressed it on her lips. "They are coming." With the dim light from the top platform, I gently read to Shiho with lip language. After that, I held Shiho behind me and pulled the gun to the hall. I lowered my voice so that others could not distinguish it. "Come out! I know you are here!"

. . . . . .

However, all I got was silence. No one answered.

"From now on, don't call my name." I continued to say to Shiho using lip language. Then I hid the necklace in my clothes, pulled out a smoke bomb from it, and threw it straight ahead.

boom! Ding!
The smoke bomb had just landed and had not exploded yet, when a bullet fired from a silencer pistol accurately hit it, and in an instant, the entire smoke bomb exploded. Under the influence of the heavy snow, the smoke gradually dissipated in less than half a minute. At the moment the smoke dissipated. Several figures appeared at the door of the top floor of the old building. The next second, boundless murderous aura enveloped me. At the same time, there was also that cold laughter.

"Hehehe... Long time no see, Sherry!" "Gin..." Shiho stared at the person opposite her with a cold gaze. She subconsciously grabbed my clothes.

"Didn't expect that we would meet here?" Gin's face was grim. "I let you go last time, which was considered as repaying that kid's favor. This time. Hehehe..."

"Haha, it's a pity that the bomb below didn't kill you." Shiho said coldly. "But you guys are really amazing. You can guess that I escaped from here."

"Hmph, don't underestimate the organization's gold medal." Gin said fiercely. "Just in time, while your mouth can still move, I have something to ask you. How did you escape from the secret room of the organization? I asked Vodka to..."

"Gin, please restrain yourself for a moment. You are not the protagonist this time." Before Gin could finish her words, a slender figure slowly walked out from the shadows and interrupted her.

"Vermouth!" Shiho said coldly. "Haha, I didn't expect that in order to catch me, they actually mobilized the two gold medals in the organization. I am really proud of myself." Seeing the appearance of Gin and Vermouth, Shiho also knew how to face them at this moment, without revealing any information about me.

"Sherry, long time no see." Vermouth sneered. "But you wasted the hope that Bing gave you. Ala, is this person next to you your new knight?" Vermouth turned his gaze to me next to Shiho, and the murderous intent in his eyes continued to spread. "Is this also his arrangement?"

"..." I didn't say anything, but raised my momentum to the extreme, staring at the gun that Gin pointed at Shiho, and at the same time, my heart also slowed down a little. Great, Sister Bei had the intention to kill me, which proved that she didn't find out my identity. And from what Gin said, Sister Bei didn't tell Gin about Shiho. This is a good thing, but also a bad thing, because maybe next, I will have to face the two top gold medal killers in the organization. Helplessly, maybe this time, I have to have an absolute killing intention against Gin and Vermouth to have a chance to survive.

I gently pushed Shiho behind me, gradually bent my knees, and slowly lowered my center of gravity, ready to fight my first battle after becoming bigger. However, just before my murderous intent was about to explode, somehow, the pressure that Vermouth had given me suddenly disappeared, replaced by her light laughter.

“Hehe~ That boy is really amazing.” Vermouth suddenly laughed out loud. No wonder, no wonder... So that’s how it is.

"What are you laughing at, bitch." Gin glanced at Vermouth beside him, and then turned his eyes to me, because at this moment, he didn't have the energy to be distracted. Vermouth restrained her killing intent, Gin could feel it, facing a powerful enemy, he dared not let down his guard. He just intensified his attention again, staring at me intently. At the same time, he spoke coldly to Vermouth. "It seems that you haven't told me something."

"Ala, this has nothing to do with you." Vermouth spread his hands and put on a cold expression. "This is between me and IceWine."

"Hmph, what else can we talk about with a dead man?" Gin sneered, "But you have a point, I am not the protagonist of this duel." As he spoke, that hideous smile appeared on Gin's face again, but the difference was that this time there was more excitement in the smile. "Hey! How long do you want to see? Annihilation Angel!"

"..."

After Gin's words, there was silence. After a long while, the unique tapping sound of a pair of small leather shoes on the snow was heard. Looking at the sound, I saw a figure walking out of the darkness step by step above Gin and others' heads and behind them on the eaves. The sound of the footsteps was very peaceful, but it made people feel cold.

... Step... Step... Step.

The footsteps were very rhythmic, and even the sounds made when stepping on the snow were consistent. The sound of the footsteps was enough to prove that the person's body balance could be maintained very steadily on the snow.

Soon, a beautiful figure slowly appeared on the eaves of the top floor. At the same time, the moon, which was covered by dark clouds, also showed a corner, as if it appeared specially for this lotus-like girl. The heavy snow gradually stopped, and the moonlight also sprinkled through the gaps in the dark clouds, shining directly on the girl, making her beautiful figure slowly reflected in everyone's eyes.

The lavender hair fluttered in the wind. The face like the bright moon was cold. The black and white Gothic skirt swayed gently. In the biting cold wind, the skirt made of special fabrics not only did not feel cold, but also highlighted the cold temperament of her owner. Under the skirt, there was a pair of slightly cute black leather shoes. In the breeze, the leather shoes were hidden by the skirt and sometimes appeared. In a trance, you can still see the slender but explosive jade legs. The same color as the leather shoes, there was another cold moon in her hand, a huge red and black war sickle, as if it had no weight, held in the hand of her owner. Under the reflection of the moonlight and snow, there were scattered dots of cold light. At this moment, time seemed to stop, and the world seemed to be stagnant. Only in a high and low position, two pairs of lavender eyes looked at each other.

"Ling..." The moonlight revealed the figure of the person opposite, and my heart was lifted. "Ling... is she here after all?" Looking at the girl with a peaceful face high above, I couldn't help but frown, and at the same time, I shook my hair slightly, letting the pale golden hair cover my face a little more.

"Sherry..." That unique sound of nature once again rang in my ears, but the difference was that this time, the voice no longer had the original sense of dependence on me and the intimacy with my family. There was only coldness and loneliness. In the context, the faint murderous intent towards Shiho made me wonder what the organization had said to her. Or what Ling herself was thinking.

"Sherry, we haven't seen each other for several months. I didn't expect that we would meet again under such circumstances." On the high platform, Ling looked down at Shiho and me, her eyes expressionless.

"Ling..." Shiho frowned. Ling's appearance made her a little confused. Subconsciously, Shiho grabbed my clothes.

"Hehe, interesting." Gin slowly put down the gun in his hand. His murderous aura gradually subsided. But his eyes never left me. "Well... the protagonist has already appeared. Next, let me see how you solve this problem... IceWine!"

"!!!"
