Chapter 270: Fox's Infernal Affairs

The Golden-haired Fox Girl leaned against the railing of the rooftop.

The engine of the armed helicopter roared behind her, and the fox mask seemed to reflect the neatly arranged rocket pod on the pylon, as well as the two menacing missile pylons beside it.

At this moment, the Fox Girl wearing an Inari mask looked like the ultimate BOSS, and the uncontrollable smile on her lips made Hyacinth even more terrified.

“You…you’re joking, right? Where did you get…?”

“So many questions, Miss Hyacinth.”

The Golden Fox interrupted Hyacinth’s monologue, raised her hand with a smile, and gave an attack signal to the Pink-haired Rabbit Girl in the cockpit.

“Rabbit is really looking forward to this fight with you, Hyacinth~”

In an instant, the mall rooftop transformed into a brutal battlefield.

Facing the terrifying firepower of the 30mm autocannon and rockets, Hyacinth was sent scurrying for cover, clutching her head, as her Glock was utterly incapable of inflicting any damage on the armed helicopter piloted by Cheshire Rabbit.

Su Tianqing watched this delightful scene with pleasure, but she couldn't help but glance at the helicopter in the sky, relentlessly pursuing Hyacinth.

…Honestly, when she first saw that thing, her expression was the same as Hyacinth’s.

That night, Catcat Rabbitrabbit and Doggy, the three of them, raided the arms trafficker's cargo ship, dismantling a shocking arms smuggling case, and even received commendation from the Hong Kong Hero Association.

“Thank you three for your help! We’ve been troubled by these smugglers’ firepower for a long time, and thanks to you, we were able to recover so much weaponry!”

The on-duty Hero said this to the three of Catcat, praising them so much that they felt a bit embarrassed, and quickly handed over some scattered equipment they had secretly hidden under their skirts.

But for villains, how could these good things pass through their hands without the saying of 'a wild goose plucking its feathers as it passes'?

Two crates of assault rifles and various accessories, five or six Browning heavy machine guns and M60 machine guns, and the two most significant heavy weapons:

The armed helicopter that Cheshire Rabbit was piloting while cackling and chasing Hyacinth, and another mysterious weapon that was far from its debut.

“Where did arms traffickers get this kind of firepower? Are you sure you didn’t smash a regular base?”

Su Tianqing once posed such a soul-searching question to the three of Catcat, but they had indeed raided an ocean-going cargo ship, so the true source of these heavy weapons remained unknown.

The Golden-haired Fox Girl even felt that if it weren’t for the limited size of the cargo ship, Catcat and the others might have brought back some mysterious things that could only take off and land at an airport.

“Well then, let Rabbit and Hyacinth play for a while.”

Su Tianqing’s gaze turned towards the building to the north, a cunning arc forming at the corner of her lips.

This battle on the mall rooftop was a surprise for Hyacinth, and the long-range sniping from the M14 rifle just now had laid the groundwork for another “surprise” she anticipated.

“Since it’s a police and gangster blockbuster, besides rooftop gunfights and explosions, how can we miss another super interesting iconic scene?”

Murmuring to herself, Su Tianqing strolled to the railing of the northern rooftop, looking towards the office building to the north.

Meanwhile, inside the office building.

Zi Ying Shi followed closely behind Red Zircon.

The former carried an M1014 shotgun, with Zi Ying Shi’s M200 sniper rifle slung over her shoulder, and the two walked forward, vigilant of all movements around them.

She didn't know exactly which sniper positions the Maisui Squad had ambushed,

But from the trajectory intelligence Zi Ying Shi had gathered just now, the person who sniped her was definitely on the upper floors of this office building, and it was highly likely to be the mole who had infiltrated the Maisui Squad!

Only by rooting out the mole could all threats be eliminated in the upcoming Xin Yuehu interception battle…

“Click.”

As they pushed open a door, both simultaneously heard an extremely faint click from behind it.

Red Zircon almost immediately slammed the door shut with a backhand, and Zi Ying Shi stepped back to give her space, dodging like lightning!

“BOOM!!”

A deafening explosion.

The booby trap hidden behind the door exploded, sending out countless dust and sparks. Red Zircon immediately unleashed her magic to disperse the dust obstructing her vision, raised her shotgun, and fired continuously at the fleeting figure in the distant hallway!

Seven gunshots.

The figure moved extremely fast, agilely dodging the dense buckshot barrage, and sprinted upstairs.

“Quick! Catch her!”

Red Zircon reloaded her shotgun with magical bullets while motioning for Zi Ying Shi to keep up.

The two quickly darted into the stairwell, firing continuously at the figure on the spiral staircase above, trying to stop her with a barrage of bullets.

But the opponent was completely unaffected by the shotgun's firepower, returning fire with her M14 rifle set to full-auto mode while running, the terrifying firepower making it impossible for Red Zircon and her companion to raise their heads for a moment.

“Zi Ying Shi! Think of something!”

Red Zircon, while struggling to maintain suppressive fire with her shotgun, blocked several 7.62mm full-power rounds that might have hit her, grimacing as she spoke to her companion behind her.

As a close-combat type, Red Zircon’s physical strength after transformation was comparable to Hai Lan Shi's,

And perhaps even better at taking a beating due to her long-standing role of drawing Monster aggro for the team, reaching Hyacinth's level.

But even so, taking several full-power, large-caliber magic bullets would still cause her pain.

Zi Ying Shi did not disappoint Red Zircon’s expectations,

Seizing the moment the M14 rifle was raised to fire, Zi Ying Shi raised her sniper rifle and fired a precise shot, hitting the rifle’s bolt!

In an instant, countless bolt parts exploded, instantly rendering the powerful rifle useless!

“Well done! Excellent work!”

Red Zircon loudly praised her companion's excellent marksmanship.

The chase up the spiral staircase didn't last too long; soon, all three almost simultaneously reached the top floor.

“Click!”

Red Zircon emerged from the stairwell, immediately alert to her surroundings.

The rooftop appeared open, but central air conditioning units and pipe networks were everywhere, and towering water towers obstructed the view, making the rooftop fraught with danger.

The two of them, one in front and one behind, returned to their previous formation from when they were searching inside the building.

The mole was on this rooftop,

As long as it was caught, it would surely…

But just as she rounded a corner, Red Zircon glimpsed a curved green object in the corner of her vision and almost instinctively shoved Zi Ying Shi away!

“Watch out! There’s a land—”

“BOOM!!!”

The Claymore mine detonated.

Red Zircon was sent flying, falling to the ground, her shotgun landing not far away, and she instantly lost consciousness.

“Red Zircon! …Damn it! …”

Zi Ying Shi subconsciously cried out, but then immediately noticed the figure behind the corner, clutching a remote detonator, aiming a gun at her!

“Don’t move! Drop your weapon!”

The purple Magic Girl raised the rifle in her hand, her side-mounted red dot sight locked onto the forehead beneath the opponent’s hood.

But the mole’s subtle smile made Zi Ying Shi feel a little uneasy.

“Hehehe…”

“To be able to push me to such a desperate situation, well done, Miss Zi Ying Shi.”

“…”

Zi Ying Shi said nothing, intently watching as the other party removed her hood.

Wheat-colored hair, clothing wrapped beneath the hood, plus those strange azure fox eyes, were enough to prove the identity of the person before her:

She was the mole in the team, Xin Yuehu’s familiar disguised as “Mai Sui”!

“It really is you.”

Zi Ying Shi said calmly.

It was a crucial moment for exposing the mole, so why did she seem so calm?

Zi Ying Shi couldn't quite understand, but it seemed she didn't need to understand it clearly at this moment.

Just pull the trigger, eliminate the familiar in front of her, and the mole familiar that had troubled everyone for days would completely disappear—

—Was that truly the case?

As if seeing through Zi Ying Shi’s inner thoughts, “Mai Sui” revealed a cunning smile, raised her hand in front of Zi Ying Shi, and snapped her fingers.

The girl watched the scene before her in astonishment:

Twisted magic power emerged from the original “Mai Sui”’s body, and after a brief transformation, her appearance had undergone a huge change,

Another herself, another “Zi Ying Shi”, stood before her!

“You! You’re…!”

“Hehehe, how do you feel now that you see another you, Miss Zi Ying Shi?”

Zi Ying Shi’s mind was in a jumble, but a terrifying thought quietly emerged in her mind,

If the mole could change shape, did that mean…

The two “Zi Ying Shi” looked at each other.

One gritted her teeth, aiming her gun at the other’s head, while the other revealed a calm smile, watching each other on the rooftop.

Infernal Affairs.

After a brief silence, a gunshot rang out, and one “Zi Ying Shi” fell in response, dissipating into magical particles.

But the Zi Ying Shi holding the rifle slumped to the ground powerlessly, as if she had realized a terrifying answer.

She had eliminated the real mole,

But in the eyes of others…who exactly was the “mole”?
