Chapter 20 Encounter

"What's wrong?" Ian, who was climbing above, asked Klein, who suddenly stopped, in a breathy voice.

"I have an ominous premonition." Klein trembled in mid-air, "Are you sure no one here will find out?"

Why does he feel so wrong!

"I'm sure." Ian, who had almost climbed to the top, said, "This room is sealed by the church and no one will come in."

"We only need to stay here for half an hour at most, and the people from MI9 will be there."

Ian had already notified MI9 before setting off. Based on the distance between their office and his previous residence, plus the time it took them to decipher the code and rush here, they should be able to arrive and respond in less than half an hour.

Klein was silent.

Judging from his experience of watching movies and TV dramas for so many years in the 21st century, the current period is the most dangerous.

Officials always come late after an accident.

"Miss Sharon, could you please take a look at it?" He whispered to the wall in front of him.

Although his spiritual vision did not warn him, Klein, who always had a creepy feeling, couldn't help but seek help from the bodyguard.

After today's observation, he felt that Sharon, who had the same ability as a female ghost, should be able to walk through walls.

The metal ladder made two crisp knocking sounds without anyone touching it.

Hope that's what it means.

Looking at Ian who had climbed in above his head, Klein smiled bitterly.

...

In the room, Yager used his excellent hearing to pick up the faint conversation coming from outside.

MI9?

He tilted his head and thought for a moment to make sure that this department was not in his memory.

But from the name, you can tell that this is an intelligence agency of the Kingdom of Loen, and the trouble is, their large army will be here soon. After meeting, it is difficult to explain why he appears here, and the private investigation will be revealed.

Duke Negan knows.

It's a small thing to be found out, but it's a big thing to lose your job.

Although he is about to receive two thousand pounds from Miss Justice, he will not be short of money recently.*

After weighing the pros and cons, Yager decided to retreat first with Williams.

His dark eyes stared at the figure of the young man browsing the window, and he slowly and quietly retreated in the shadow of the blind corner of his vision. The 'Evelin' on his right hand was facing the direction of the bedroom calmly.

However, a blond figure wearing a palace dress suddenly broke into view!

As a Sequence 5 ‘Revenant Soul’, Sharon has basic confidence in her own strength. Even if the danger mentioned by the client Klein is also around Sequence 5 or 6, she can still escape pursuit through the special ability of the Resentful Soul state.

So when faced with simple exploration tasks, she was not particularly cautious.

Unfortunately, she made the wrong decision this time.

When she saw two strange figures, Sharon, who had not received any warning from her spiritual vision, had no doubts and floated straight towards Yager and Williams.

?

Does she think I can't see her?

Separated by a wall, Yager looked at this reckless extraordinary person with confusion. Although the other person's body was translucent, he was not blind yet.

The muzzle of the gun in his right hand was raised.

The two looked at each other in disbelief, watching each other's position getting closer and closer.

In the state of 'revengeful soul', Miss Sharon can easily pass through obstacles and maintain her form without being seen. Even extraordinary people who also have spiritual vision cannot detect her existence unless they reach a high level.

Secondly, this state is also immune to most physical attacks, and only weapons with exorcism effects can reveal her body.

But what she didn't expect was that today her weaknesses would be fully restrained.

Through the wall, Sharon's eyes were fixed on the two figures in the room. There was nothing unusual about them. They looked like ordinary people who had entered by mistake.

It wasn't until Sharon walked through the thin wall of the bedroom and came to the living room that she, who originally used extraordinary observation abilities, finally saw the situation in the room clearly with her blue eyes.

In the hand of the black-haired young man a few steps away, a pistol that showed no trace in the spiritual vision was pointed at her head.

Sharon's pupils suddenly shrank.

She subconsciously raised her hand, wanting to use her extraordinary ability.

"bump!"

The high-pitched gunshots lingered over the East District, awakening the crows sleeping on the treetops at night, flapping their wings and flying into the distance.

Klein, who was still hanging on the edge of the ladder, felt his heart palpitate for a moment.

Sure enough, there was a problem in the safe house.

Gritting his teeth, he still chose to speed up the ladder.

Miss Sharon's ability seems very strange. If she overturns here, he, Backlund's primary target, will not be able to escape, so he might as well fight for his life.

What's more, he has no interest in using other people's lives to die.

The kind-hearted Xiao Ke climbed up to the window sill, and with his extraordinary vision, he saw clearly what was going on in the MI9 safe house under the blood-red moonlight——

At the door of the bedroom, a black-haired young man looked down indifferently at the 'Wraith Soul' Sharon on the ground. The silver-white gun barrel with delicate and smooth lines in his hand was pointed directly at the girl's eyebrows. His dark leather boots stepped on the chest of the trembling body under his feet. , the sharp-edged heels left a cruel dent in the center of the fair skin.

Tick ​​tock, tick tock.

Sharon's originally smooth left shoulder was soaked in blood, leaving only a terrifying scarlet wound.

This was left behind when the bullet passed by her.

After Klein climbed over the window edge, the black-haired young man who caused this cruel scene slowly turned his head and looked at his location, allowing Klein to clearly see the outline of the thug's face.

He is the Bishop of the Tarot Club.

Klein was shocked.

He did not expect that the seemingly unrelated bishop would appear here, let alone kill the very powerful bodyguard lady in an instant.

The terrifying pressure coming from the front made him seem to have returned to a few weeks ago, when he and the captain faced the monster Megoose and her evil god's descendants in Tingen City. The crushing pressure felt overwhelming. trembling.

Powerless and hopeless.

He knew that this new member might be very strong, but this strength was still beyond the scope of his estimation.

No longer blocked by the gray fog, Klein clearly felt the bishop's strength:

Demigod or above.

He was wrong. He should have posted the mission in the Tarot Club at that time instead of asking Justice alone what to do now. Is there any use in turning around and running away!

Klein shakily hid with Ian who was cowering in the corner, raised his hands, and made the classic surrender gesture handed down from the Russell era. This may be the only help this senior time traveler can give him now. .

Without the Fool informing him in advance, it would be difficult for Mr. Bishop to connect him with the Fool's Favorite, and he would not let him go because of this relationship.

Klein didn't even think about resisting.

Considering the bishop's absolute trump card, as well as the fact that Miss Sharon, Ian, and a stranger in the living room are still relatively safe, resistance will only be counterproductive.

Fortunately, the thug opposite, Yager, didn't seem to have any intention of attacking this newbie. Yager just looked at Klein with a strange look in his eyes.

After a few seconds, she turned to look at him again.

so weird.

Yager, who was cruelly trampling on the girl, felt confused again.

In addition to the translucent young lady in front of him who rushed in front of him inexplicably and dared to try to use extraordinary abilities, the new young man who came in was also very strange.

Groups of gray mist mixed with the young man's soul.

Of course, Yager had an impression of these gray fogs. After all, the Fool was the only god who expressed friendship to him after he came to this world. There are still a few fatwas against him hanging in the church.

So after Klein came in, he had no intention of taking action.

He hesitated for a while, then asked coldly in the direction of Ian and Klein: "Who are you? What is the purpose of coming here?"
