Chapter 533 Building 33 (1/2)
Two days ago, in the middle of the night, in an old, dim warehouse in the eastern suburb of the White Capital, three people appeared out of nowhere when there was usually hardly anyone.
The three of them wore black robes that had no logos on them. They hid their faces under the hood. Under the dim light, their masks under the hood could be faintly seen.
”Let's wait for a while. The Purple Crow will be here soon.” The leader's voice was gentle and deep under the voice-modulating sh.e.l.l. The other two persons stood there without saying a thing as they waited patiently. Soon, another four people appeared in the warehouse. The four of them were dressed the same as the three. They were wearing black robes with hoods and masks of different designs on their faces.
”Alright, since everyone is here, let's get straight to business,” the gentle voice was heard again.
Among the Purple Crow members, the man standing on the second left spoke, ”What I heard is that the Union Government has brought Gong Sunhai and Lu Yuan to Building 33, but I'm not sure which floor they're on. n.o.body knows that at the moment.” His voice was also deep but was huskier than the leader's voice.
”In reality, aside from the first floor, we have no idea where the remaining 32 floors are at.”
Building 33 was the Union Government's underground department that was scattered everywhere in 33 different locations beneath the White Capital. Although the depths of the levels were different, the floors were not arranged according to the depth of ground but to the build order instead. Aside from the first floor that was under the Union Government's office building, the remaining 32 floors were scattered everywhere under the White Capital where n.o.body can pinpoint. Only some of the top management in the Union Government know where the exact locations of the 32 floors are and a couple of them were privy to where the bodies of the two Saints elders were hidden.
”That's not a problem. We've found someone who knows the locations of Building 33 these few days. It's not difficult to get him to tell us the building's exact location. I'll try to find out which floor the two elders are on,” the gentle voice spoke and looked at the four of them.
”Have you guys tracked the number of guardians?”
”Yes, there are six of them on imperial-level in the White Capital now. However, aside from the six families including the Shangguan and the Li families that we know of, there are at least two powerful humans of the same level. Therefore, there are at least eight imperial-level guardians in the White Capital and that's just an estimation.” It was a voice that was slightly high-pitched. Although the person used a voice-modulating sh.e.l.l, it was not difficult to distinguish that it was a lady.
”I heard that the one guarding Building 33 are their director, Zhou Xiong, and deputy director, Wu Sheng. I'll try to distract two of the eight imperial-level humans these two days. But the most I can take care of are those two, or else, the Union Government might suspect that something is wrong,” the husky voice added.
”Do you mean Zhou Xiong and Wu Sheng…” The gentle voice trailed off with a sigh.
”Why? Do you know them?” The husky voice asked.
”Nothing. I heard that Zhou Hou is powerful, so it might be tough.” The man with the gentle voice shook his head.
”Zhou Xiong is really powerful. Even if we get the exact location, it's inevitable that we will face him when we get to Building 33. One of us will have to go in while the other one would have to watch the entrance,” the husky voice said in all seriousness. He was clearly one of the leaders in the Purple Crow with strong power.
”Then, you'll stay at the entrance and I'll go in. I'd like to see what the forensic room in Building 33 looks like,” the man with the gentle voice decided without thinking twice.
”As long as you don't take too long, or else, I'll leave you behind,” the husky voice from the Purple Crow warned.
