Guns and Coffee in the World of Science

Chapter 237 I’ve wanted to do this for a long time!

Night has fallen, and the lights of Tokyo illuminate this sleepless city like stars.

The tall buildings on both sides of the street look particularly brilliant against the backdrop of the night, and the streets are bustling with traffic and prosperity.

And in the heart of this city, an ancient shrine in Kudankita sits quietly, like a disgusting monster, constantly absorbing the surrounding darkness.

On the stone steps in front of the shrine, three people were waiting for an approaching luxury car.

A Rolls-Royce Phantom slowly drove over.

Its body gleams with a deep luster under the street lights, like a piece of exquisitely carved obsidian, low-key yet full of breathtaking luxury.

The wheels rolled almost silently, each turn carrying an authority and mystery that could not be ignored.

The car windows reflected everything around them, but the people inside never showed a trace, giving people a ghostly sense of mystery.

The headlights of the Rolls-Royce cast a ray of light through the night and slowly stopped at the entrance of the shrine. The exquisite gold-plated trim on the body of the car glowed dimly under the light, like a standing giant beast waiting for its owner.

The moment the car stopped, the three people at the door were obviously impatient.

The leading man, who looked a bit like a monkey and had an impatient look on his face, stepped forward and spoke impatiently.

"Why are you here so late? We have been waiting for you for a long time..."

From the left side of the Rolls-Royce, a somewhat lazy voice suddenly came: "Sorry, Lupin, the submarine encountered a cliff in the sea, and we almost couldn't get up."

The voice was full of sexiness and charm. Although it was an apology, there was no sincerity in it.

A woman stepped gracefully out of the car.

She was wearing a tight black leather jacket, and her curvy figure was particularly attractive in the moonlight.

Her brown curly hair fluttered in the wind, and the slight waves made her look feminine, yet capable and decisive.

Every step she took seemed to carry a fatal attraction.

"Ah! Fujiko-chan! You're here too!"

The moment Lupin saw her, the impatience on his face disappeared immediately, and was replaced by a dog-licking expression.

He kept circling around Mine Fujiko, completely lacking any image at all.

Lupin the Third's poor performance made Daisuke Jigen and Goemon Ishikawa next to him cover their faces. Their eyes met, full of embarrassment and anger.

However, before the two could say anything, their expressions suddenly became serious and they turned to look towards the driver's cab.

The car door slowly opened, and with a breeze, a woman exuding a cold aura walked out.

She was wearing a red cheongsam, her slender figure was well-defined, and her temperament was as cold and noble as ice and snow.

Her short hair is dark gray, neat and capable, which makes her face more delicate.

Those gray eyes were as clear as cold water, and their gaze swept through the air with a sense of calmness and depth.

Every step she took seemed to bring a sense of oppression, and the atmosphere around her instantly froze.

Her gaze swept across Lupin and the other two, and suddenly stopped on Jigen Daisuke and Goemon. A trace of vigilance and cold murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

Her aura was so strong that the two powerful men immediately felt pressured.

Even though she didn't do anything, her eyes and temperament alone were enough to make them alert.

Fujiko Mine glanced at the woman and raised a provocative smile at the corner of her mouth, but she did not stay for too long. She walked to the right side of the Phantom, gently opened the back door, and signaled the people in the car to get out.

Then, the figure appeared in front of everyone, as if all eyes were focused on him in an instant.

Chen Shuo was wearing a dark suit and walked calmly and steadily. There was no unnecessary expression on his face. Through the faint moonlight, everyone felt an innate sense of oppression.

"Lupin, Jigen, and Goemon, thank you for your hard work. How are things going?"

Chen Shuo's voice was low and clear, undoubtedly carrying an irresistible majesty.

As soon as he got off the car, the air around him seemed to become more tense. He did not make any threatening moves, but still made everyone present feel his power that no one could underestimate.

Feng Fujiko and Pu Siqinglan stood on his left and right, each possessing a different temperament, yet strangely matching him perfectly. Their presence seemed to be the perfect complement to Chen Shuo's calm and profound temperament.

After seeing this scene, Lupin was a little dejected: "Really... it's great that he's handsome..."

He couldn't help but mutter softly, his tone filled with self-mockery and unwillingness.

"Don't lose heart," Jigen Daisuke patted Lupin's shoulder, "Not only is he more handsome than you, but he can beat ten of you without any problem."

Lupin's expression froze, and he suddenly lowered his head: "Teacher Jigen~~~Are you trying to comfort me?"

"No! I just want you to face reality." Daisuke Jigen said in a cold tone, hitting Lupin mercilessly.

Lupin sighed helplessly and turned to look at Chen Shuo. The resentful look in his eyes almost broke Chen Shuo's defense. This funny guy...

Jigen Daisuke pushed Lupin away and stood in front of Chen Shuo, his tone serious and steady.

"We've basically figured it out. The man is inside. However, the security there is quite strong. Goemon, Lupin, and I haven't been able to conduct a thorough investigation."

He paused, his eyes serious. “So, we don’t know the specific situation in the central area yet, but it’s estimated to be difficult to break through.”

After he finished speaking, Jigen Daisuke's expression became more serious. He was confident that their team of three was one of the best in the world, but even they felt that the defense of this shrine was as impenetrable as an iron barrel.

"Yeah……"

Chen Shuo did not respond directly to Ciyuan's words. He glanced at the huge door of the shrine indifferently, raised his brows slightly, and his eyes revealed a cold light with a hint of disdain, as if he was looking at a filthy creature.

"This filthy building will be demolished today, and the ashes of the people inside will be scattered!"

There was an unquestionable determination in his voice, as if he was full of contempt for any existence in this place.

When Lupin heard this, he shuddered and instantly restrained his previous inappropriate behavior.

He walked over to Chen Shuo and said seriously, "What should we do then? Even though it seems quiet here now, there are heavy guards inside. If we act rashly, we might get shot to pieces."

"Huh! Heavily guarded?"

Chen Shuo snorted contemptuously, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he raised his hand slightly and pointed at the shrine.

At that moment, his temperament suddenly changed, like a king standing high above, looking down at everything: "Let me show you the methods of the Continental Hotel!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp sound of propellers broke the silence of the night sky.

The three of them quickly turned their heads and looked into the distance.

On the skyline, the outlines of five Apaches gradually appeared. They circled in the night sky like birds of prey, and the roaring sound became closer and deafening.

"Helicopter!?" Lupin, Daisuke Jigen and Goemon all looked at each other and said in unison.

The arrival of those helicopters was obviously a strong support for the mainland hotel.

The roar of the propellers grew louder and the silhouette of the helicopter became clearer.

They flew at an extremely high speed at low altitude and circled over the shrine almost instantly. The strong wind pressure shook the surrounding trees, and the flying dust filled the area around the shrine with a turbulent atmosphere.

The moment the five Apaches were in position, a shrill bell sounded.

"Drip! Drip! Drip!"

The flashing red light on the communicator seemed to announce the beginning of something ominous. Pu Siqinglan quickly took the communicator in her hand and glanced at Chen Shuo. A hint of coldness flashed in her eyes, and then her voice was as cold as ice and snow: "Boss! They are ready."

Chen Shuo stood where he was, his hands gently placed in his trouser pockets. He was silent for a moment, his eyes as sharp as a knife, as if he was preparing for some kind of disaster to break out.

He raised his head slightly, his cold eyes sweeping across the distant shrine. In his eyes, the sinful building looked like a ruin about to collapse. Since it was a symbol of evil and corruption, it should disappear completely.

He uttered a sentence slowly, filled with murderous intent and an irrefutable command: "Free fire! Empty the magazine!"

As soon as the order was issued, it was as if the gates of hell were opened.

Five Apache helicopters swooped down rapidly from above, and the roar that cut through the night sky instantly made the air around the shrine heavy.

The machine gun muzzle rotated rapidly, and flames burst out like a storm. Dense rain of bullets covered the main hall of the shrine and the surrounding buildings. The continuous sound of gunfire and explosions were intertwined.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Several deafening explosions sounded one after another, and the wooden structures around the shrine were instantly torn apart, the ancient eaves and walls collapsed, and sparks and debris flew like raindrops.

Each bullet hit the target accurately, making a loud explosion that shook the entire night sky.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a missile shot out from the weapons bay of one of the Apaches, streaked across the night sky, and with a dazzling light, directly hit the rear hall of the shrine.

The fireball from the explosion shot up into the sky, illuminating the area within hundreds of meters. The entire back of the shrine was razed to the ground almost instantly, with thick smoke billowing and flames blazing everywhere.

The shrine's buildings began to crumble under the onslaught of artillery fire, and the various tablets filled with sinful souls inside were reduced to ashes.

"Da da da……"

The machine gun continued to fire, like a continuous storm.

Each time the fire swept through, it was accompanied by a roar and the sound of buildings collapsing.

The shrine, which had been intact, gradually turned into ruins, with smoke filling the air and burning wood and stone chips floating everywhere.

With the roar of machine guns, another missile followed closely, shot out from under the Apache's fuselage, and hit the main hall of the shrine hard.

As the explosion sounded, the entire main hall was razed to the ground in an instant. Flames shot up into the sky, and the towering column of fire was like a furious dragon, devouring everything around it.

Chen Shuo stood beside the Rolls-Royce, his eyes slightly narrowed, his gaze penetrating the smoke and flames, watching everything quietly.

He had no expression, but the satisfaction in his eyes was almost overflowing.

The bombardment continued, and the entire shrine was completely engulfed in flames and ruins.

The temple that once symbolized militarism has been completely destroyed in this merciless artillery fire.

"Hmph! I've wanted to do this for a long time." Chen Shuo muttered to himself, his voice cold and ruthless.
