Fatal Shot

Chapter 521 - Contest of Eyesight



Chapter 521: Contest of Eyesight

Due to the encounter with Zi Wei, everyone from the group strengthened their disguise specifically after returning to their rooms.

They had to ensure that they could not be recognized by people who were not acquainted with them.

Even Phoenix took off her red outfit, albeit very unwillingly, and put on the white casual outfit that suited activities in the hotel better.

They had no choice. Feng Luo suspected that the reason Zi Wei recognized them was due to Phoenix’s habit of liking red-colored things.

After all, a beautiful woman wearing red was not something you’d see every day in the game.

Nonetheless, though Phoenix changed her outfit this time, even putting on a wig to cover her obvious red hair, she had still made a reservation with Old John for a custom-made unique fiery-red-style female power armor set. Feng Luo still felt that it was a headache. You can’t stop a woman from trying to look good.

However, Feng Luo decided to forget about that for the moment. The most important thing right now was the mission. Feng Luo turned around and spoke to Digital Cat, who had turned on the special agent infiltration device, “Start searching. I hope we can find some clues.”

“Time left: two and a half hours. The rebel army camp players should have already checked in. Surveillance system extracting…” Digital Cat’s fingers danced quickly on the silver device’s virtual keyboard, and multiple surveillance screens were projected onto the large screen hanging on the wall.

There were hundreds of surveillance screens projected on the screen. Digital Cat’s gaze was glued to the screen showing the location where guests had to check-in and spoke calmly, “I’ve extracted two scenes. One is the live surveillance video of an important location in the hotel, and the recording of surveillance footage of a must-pass-through location when checking in to the hotel. If they have any further operations, they will definitely show us something in the live surveillance feed. However, by my calculations, their operation should only start after they meet with the NPC tonight. From that, we may not succeed if we only rely on the information gathered through this. In comparison, I feel that checking the check-in process of all guests may give us more information.”

After hearing Digital Cat’s words, Big Pineapple almost bit his tongue. “Ah? You’re going to review the check-in recording of every guest? Isn’t that too much work? The hotel has thousands of guests right now…”

Feng Luo’s original plan was to check the live surveillance feed as well as the information of the guest in an attempt to find clues. However, Digital Cat wanted to check the check-in process of every single guest. The workload was definitely going to increase by more than ten times.

“Moreover, if we’re reviewing footage from yesterday noon to today, we won’t have enough time to replay all of them before 8 pm…”

Big Pineapple paused halfway through his sentence of trying to reduce the workload.

Digital Cat had already increased the replay speed to five times, and her eyes were already fixed on the dazzling screen, beginning her search and investigation.

With a speed like that, it was absolutely possible to complete the task before 8 pm, when the target would meet up.

Big Pineapple facepalmed, then turned around to look at Feng Luo.

“I almost forgot that Digi Sis’ brain structure is not like normal people. Fine then. I guess you’re the only one who can use this method… Old Feng, let’s try searching outside. Maybe we might just meet them… No way, Old Feng, are you also going to stay here and watch?” In the end, he found Feng Luo in the same state as Digital Cat; staring at the dazzling screen recording replaying at a speed five times the normal.

Feng Luo also looked to be completely focused.

After awakening the Force, Feng Luo found that his nervous system’s activity rate had increased again. It went up to a point where his thoughts would become unbelievably fast in analyzing things as long as he focused.

Even as the video was playing at five times the normal speed, he did not find it problematic at all.

“Alright then. You two watch it. Phoenix sis, why don’t the two of us act as a couple and gather some intel…” Big Pineapple noticed that Feng Luo ignored him, so he switched his target to Phoenix.

However, just as Big Pineapple finished his sentence…

“Yeah, hold on. Replay that. CCTV number two. Replay that to ten seconds ago.” Feng Luo’s expression changed as he spoke suddenly to Digital Cat.

Digital Cat moved her fingers, and the scene quickly rolled back. Before long, a scene where a group of around ten people entering the hotel’s VIP area appeared.

Feng Luo pointed at a young man standing in the middle of the group on the scene and said, “This guy, use the device to analyze him.”

Apart from infiltration functions, the special agent department’s specialized device also had a facial recognition function. As long as the target’s face is locked, it could analyze and create images of the face.

“This one?”

“Yes.”

Digital Cat maximized the image and used the device to analyze the face. She then created ten images of the young man’s possible face.

“Holy shit, no way! Old Feng, you’ve really found it. You’re able to see his face clearly even though the scene was moving so fast?” Big Pineapple looked at one of the ten pictures, and his eyes become so wide they almost fell out of his sockets. He stared at Feng Luo as if he was looking at an alien.

Even Digital Cat looked slightly surprised, she only noticed that the group seemed suspicious after Feng Luo asked her to stop the video.

“He’s actually faster than me.” Digital Cat thought.

Earlier, she had confirmed that Feng Luo had an amazing memory like her.

However, right now, it seemed to her that even her observation skills, a skill which she had specifically trained and was related to her talent, was also in the possession of the enemy.

This made the genius girl, who was incredibly proud, feel pressured.

“It isn’t actually as hard as you imagine. If they are guilty, they will inadvertently glance at the CCTV position unconsciously. Their movement will also be unnatural. You’d be able to notice it too with just a little bit more concentration.” Feng Luo shook his head and did not give any detailed explanation.

“It’s actually that Young Master Xing. It looks like we’ve found our targets.” Onishi said after staring at and analyzing the face of the young man on the screen.

Everyone from the team had seen Young Master Xing’s face before from the image provided by Nightingale’s Legendary Grade recon meter. They naturally knew that Young Master Xing was from the rebel army camp. Moreover, he was also a member of the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group.

Now that he had put on a disguise and appeared at the hotel, the group was pretty sure that he was the target of their mission.

“The room that they booked, their identity, and the places they’ve visited after checking in…” Feng Luo said quickly.

Digital Cat instantly pulled out the information. “They checked in to emperor suite number two. There are ten of them, and they checked in at 4:35 pm. They’ve been inside the suite since checking in.”

“Emperor suite!” Big Pineapple was very jealous of them after hearing about it.

“Holy f*ck, to stay at the emperor suite while working on a mission. The reward for the mission probably can’t even cover the room fee. It’s a good thing that Cat was adamant about checking the check-in footages. Otherwise, they would have been staying inside the emperor suite which is completely separated from the other areas of the hotel. No matter how we looked, we’d never have been able to find them.” Phoenix commended Digital Cat’s decision.

“But staying at the emperor suite is also quite troublesome for us. The hotel’s emperor suites float above the top floor and the distance between the suite and the ground on top of the hotel is at least a dozen or so meters. We can only enter the suite through a passage that is activated from above. The top floor of the hotel has a lot of security guards as well. Moreover, these guys are equipped with guns. If we don’t want to cause a ruckus, there’s no way for us to get in there, not to mention getting rid of them.” Onishi frowned.

He probably stayed at the suite before, so he understood the situation very well.

“It is certainly a problem. However, there is a solution.” Digital Cat pressed a button on the device and a 3D image of the hotel’s structure appeared in mid-air. “The three emperor suites are quite far away from the top floor; moreover, the defense below the suites are quite tight, which makes it impossible to get in. However, emperor suite number one and emperor suite number two are at the same level, and the distance between the two isn’t that big. With the anchor’s strength, we could swing right over.”
