Chapter 552: So whats the price?

He stabbed the child repeatedly, causing it to bleed profusely, and the wounds on his own body seemed to heal with the child's pain.

"The Seer..."

Victor also judged this guy's identity from the energy on his body.

The child was tortured to the point of screaming. If he did not receive treatment as soon as possible, he might lose his life within half an hour.

In order to recover from the burns he suffered, the murderer kept cutting him.

Victor's eyes turned cold on the spot, and he moved closer.

"do not come!"

The guy's rifle had fallen somewhere, and now he was holding a knife tightly and threatening Victor.

"You are from the Anti-Suppression Department. I know that. If you come here again, I will kill this brat!"

Victor stopped, stared at the child's wounds, opened his lips slightly, and said softly: "Everything has cracks..."

As soon as he said these words, the murderer was stunned. Then he suddenly felt his hands loosen, and the child who was covered in blood suddenly turned into a girl with shoulder-length short hair.

Before he could react, the girl hit him hard in the stomach with her elbow.

Well……

After a groan, the murderer raised the knife and stabbed into his arms, but he hit a woven bag full of river sand.

"Shit!"

He cursed and immediately got up and wanted to run, but the next second, a figure appeared in front of him and touched his stomach with strange fingerprints.

Unprepared, the murderer was touched by Victor, and after the latter succeeded, he pasted a strange yellow paper on his chest.

An ominous premonition spread through the man's body like an electric current. He quickly retreated and raised the knife in front of him.

But this posture only lasted a moment, and he was shaken all over, his eyes widened as if they were about to burst out, and he fell straight down.

The children around him exclaimed in surprise. After seeing the man lying on the ground motionless for a long time, they dared to gradually get closer and observe him.

"He...he's dead!"

Shouts of fear spread throughout this orphan slum, and Victor had already caught the cut child and was healing it with a wooden spell.

"It's just to stop the bleeding temporarily, but he still needs to be sent to the hospital. He is too seriously injured."

Victor said to Zoe who looked worried next to him.

The other party seemed to have forgotten that she was Victor's prisoner now, and she only had the child's life in her eyes.

Just now, after Zoe was shot by a gun, she was not seriously injured because of the golden spell protecting her. When she saw that the child was being used as a hostage, she immediately exchanged herself with him out of desperation.

After catching the killer off guard, she immediately exchanged herself with a bag of river sand next to her, thus creating an opportunity for Victor to kill the killer.

Victor stood up with the child in his arms and left the area.



After a while, Zoe was escorted to the Inspection Bureau by Victor and was interrogated in the cell.

At first, the girl kept asking Victor about the child. She was unwilling to reveal any clues until she confirmed that the other person was out of danger.

This made Tony so angry that he even thought that he should give this girl some strong medicine and use the traditional art of interrogating prisoners by the police.

However, Victor stopped him from doing this.

"Why? Didn't you see how arrogant this brat looked? She was confident! She was contemptuous of the Inspection Bureau!"

Faced with Tony's emotions, Victor remained silent.

If Zoe was not Father Sang's daughter, perhaps he would have taken tough measures long ago.

But the problem lies in Zoe's life experience. After all, Father Sang sacrificed himself to save his life. This kindness is real.

"Wait a moment for news from the hospital. If you feel tired, just leave this place to me. I can do it alone."

Victor found an excuse to send Tony away.

The latter had rarely rested recently and was very busy. He was already tired, so he yawned and stood up. Without arguing with him, he just closed the door and left.

Victor observed the girl inside through that special wall, and found no complex thoughts in her expression.

Either she is really innocent and easy to deceive, or she just acts too much...

Well acted...

Victor suddenly remembered that the thief was the secret messenger of the nocturnal phase, and that Donny Hopkins, who killed Father Sang, was also the seer of the nocturnal phase...

"She actually has the same sexual appearance as the murderer of her father. Is this fate..."

Not long after, there was a knock on the door outside, and an investigator from the Inspection Bureau brought news about the hospital.

After hearing this, Victor stood up with satisfaction, entered the interrogation room again, and sat in front of Zoe.

"The child is out of danger. Can you have a good chat with me now?"

After getting the news, Zoe showed her heartfelt joy, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Okay? Next, you have to answer my questions. You can't play tricks anymore. This is your last chance, little girl..."

Victor's expression gradually became serious.

"Did you steal the Presidential Palace's itinerary?"

As soon as this question came out, Zoe acted a little panicked.

However, after facing Victor's extremely serious look, she nodded and replied: "Yes...it's me..."

"Can you tell me why you did this?" Victor asked next.

Zoe lowered her head, bit her lip, and answered slowly and softly: "Because I want to make money..."

Make money?

Victor didn't expect the reason to be so superficial.

"Tell me more details." he asked.

Zoe sighed and began to tell the story of the future: "In our place, children who don't have enough to eat are very good at stealing things when they grow up. After my mother passed away, I joined such a team and worked together.

Use the money you earn to support yourself and some friends who haven’t grown up yet.”

"Later, I became the fastest runner and the fastest among us, so one day, someone came to me and gave me a chance to become a seer, and he didn't ask me to pay...

…”

Um?

Victor's expression darkened, he knew that there was no such thing as a pie in the sky.

"No money? What's the price?"

Zoe answered hesitantly: "He didn't say anything at first, but he told me that he would ask me to do something in the future, and I couldn't refuse."

"Can't refuse?" Victor's eyes narrowed, "So you are asked to steal the president's travel plan?"

Zoe trembled all over: "Yes...that's it."

"So, you agreed to him so easily?" Victor shook his head helplessly.

Zoe continued to bite her lip.

"At that time, I just wanted to be a seer and gain strength. The security on the streets was becoming more and more strict, and many of us couldn't even eat some bread."

"When I was on the cruise ship, you also saw that I found nothing. I hadn't saved my companions... they were all dead... dead..."

The girl became more and more excited as she spoke, but Victor did not believe everything she said and continued to ask: "So, who is the guy who 'signed' the contract with you? Do you know his name or appearance?"
