In Fuuto: Starting as a Kamen Rider 01

He could obtain the resources of the young lady of the Sonozaki family for free, making his assassination plan foolproof.

And then, in front of the master of the house, he could completely trample this foolish woman underfoot.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Thinking of this, the locust woman's initial wariness was completely replaced by immense greed.

"Oh?"

She forcibly suppressed her inner elation and raised an eyebrow with feigned composure.

What are your plans?

Saeko looked at the other party, who had completely taken the bait, and sneered inwardly, but her face still wore that sincere expression of "shared hatred against a common enemy".

“I have an invitation that he absolutely cannot refuse…”

An invitation to hell.

Seeing the Locust Girl's completely relaxed and even somewhat impatient expression, Sonozaki Saeko knew that her plan was already half successful.

Her fingertips trembled slightly with extreme excitement.

His eyes gleamed with undisguised greed.

For an ambitious person eager to climb the social ladder but lacking the means, nothing is more tempting than a huge achievement that is readily available.

Saeko Sonozaki took it all in, a cold smile playing on her lips, but the curve of her mouth remained gentle and sincere.

She slowly took a sealed brown paper bag from her crocodile skin handbag.

Her movements were elegant and composed, a stark contrast to the locust woman's almost uncontrollable eagerness.

She pushed the paper bag in front of the locust woman.

"This is the action plan about Su Chen that I obtained through special channels."

Saeko's voice was extremely low, her breath brushing across the table, as if she were sharing a colossal secret that could overturn the entire landscape of Fuuto.

The locust woman grabbed the paper bag, roughly tore open the seal, and pulled out the documents inside.

It was a flawlessly forged internal document about 01 Technology.

The texture of the paper, the scent of the ink, and even the barely perceptible anti-counterfeiting watermark at the foot of the page are perfectly replicated, without any flaws.

"According to the information, Su Chen is currently conducting a highly confidential experiment, and the experiment is taking place in the abandoned dock warehouse in the south of the city."

The locust woman's eyes quickly scanned the documents.

The document lists complex experimental data, a detailed list of instruments, and a timeline of actions down to the minute.

Everything was done flawlessly, leaving no room for error.

"Dock warehouse?"

She frowned, looked up, and a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.

Why choose that kind of place?

"Because it's remote enough."

Saeko leaned forward, her voice carrying a mocking sneer.

· ········Requesting flowers···· ······

"Moreover, according to the technical specifications in the appendix, the electromagnetic interference in that area is extremely severe, making it ideal for conducting some... experiments that cannot be exposed to the light."

Her acting was flawless, perfectly portraying a woman twisted by jealousy and hatred, willing to betray her colleagues for opportunities.

"The key is."

Saeko leaned close to the locust woman's ear, her warm breath mixed with the scent of perfume, brushing against her earlobe.

Her tone was deadly seductive.

"According to my intelligence, Su Chen will go there alone around midnight tonight to conduct the final debugging of the experimental data."

This information struck the Locust Woman like a thunderbolt.

Alone.

"At that time, he will not have any guards with him."

"The warehouse's security system will also reduce its power to the minimum to cooperate with the experiment."

"That will be the best time to take action."

Every word was like a heavy hammer, striking the locust woman's heart.

This information was an irresistible temptation for her.

In her eyes, Su Chen, who was completely unprepared, was no different from a lamb that had been stripped of its fur, bound, and placed on a chopping board to be slaughtered.

.. .. ....

In an instant, images of the future began to uncontrollably appear in her mind.

He appeared as if by divine intervention, delivering a fatal blow to Su Chen at the most unexpected moment.

She carried the still-bleeding head back to the museum that symbolized power at dawn.

She personally presented this tremendous achievement to the head of the family, Sono Saki Ryubei.

How would the head of the family praise her?

What kind of shocked and jealous expressions will those cadres who usually boss her around show?

And those two young ladies from the Sonozaki family, Saeko and Wakana, will no longer have the right to look down on them.

He would rise to prominence and become the most trusted confidant under the head of the family.

The taste of power is so sweet.

"it is good!"

"That's it!"

A blinding light of greed and cruelty flashed in the eyes of the locust woman.

She gripped the forged document tightly in her hand, her knuckles turning white from the force, as if she had already grasped the golden key to the pinnacle of power.

"Miss Saeko, I owe you a favor this time."

She looked up and, unusually, forced a very fake smile at Saeko, her facial muscles stiffening.

"Once I succeed, I will definitely put in a good word for you before my master."

This promise is flimsy and carries no weight.

Saeko, however, seemed flattered.

"Then... I wish you every success."

Sonozaki Saeko responded with a smile, her eyes curving into beautiful crescent moons.

But hidden deep within that smile was a chilling, bone-chilling pity, as if looking at a dead person.

A poor wretch about to enter his grave.

Watching the locust woman turn away with great joy, her impatient back view even appearing somewhat stumbling, as she excitedly began to gather all her manpower, preparing to deliver the so-called "fatal blow" to Su Chen.

The smile on Sonozaki Saeko's face slowly, inch by inch, faded away.

The gentle pretense fades, leaving only the coldness and indifference of the holder of the forbidden memory.

She took out her communicator and swiped her slender fingertips across the screen.

The light shone on her expressionless face.

She sent a short message to her younger sister, Wakana.

"The fish has taken the bait."

send.

She added another sentence.

"Tonight at midnight, at the dock warehouse, prepare to close the net."

A clever scheme, orchestrated by the two sisters and a classic case of the mantis stalking the cicada unaware of the oriole behind, is about to unfold in that abandoned warehouse eroded by the sea breeze.

But Su Chen wasn't the prey.

midnight.

The abandoned docks south of Fengdu City are deathly silent.

Only the sea breeze travels through the rusty steel frame, emitting a low, mournful murmur.

The air was filled with the unique smell of salty seawater mixed with the stench of decaying metal.

The pale moonlight cast a silent, steel behemoth upon the towering crane, casting a massive, all-encompassing shadow.

Deep in the shadows, through the broken entrance of an abandoned warehouse, a dozen dark figures filed in one after another, their movements as light as melting drops of ink.

Their footsteps were swallowed by the thick dust, making no sound.

At the very front of the group was the Locust Woman.

She hid behind a rusty pillar, a smug, confident smile playing on her lips.

This trap is perfect.

The location, time, and all the action routes for the target were personally provided by Saeko Sonozaki.

Once that man named Su Chen steps into this place, he will have no chance of escape.

She and her subordinates had been waiting here for nearly an hour.

Time flowed slowly in the thick silence.

The clock on the wall was broken, its hands long since stopped, but the tactical watch on her wrist clearly showed the passage of time.

It's past midnight.
