Chapter 24 Old Friends Reunited

Yager ran all the way. Although he also came from the mysterious Evangelical Church, compared with the monster chasing behind him, he was as harmless as a white mouse.

He could hear the gunshots coming from deep in the tunnel behind him, and the horrified shouts of the followers. They failed to stop the monster and he was coming.

Yager began to regret his decision. No one thought that just killing some rats would attract monsters like Lorenzo.

He ran wildly in the complicated tunnel, and the evil rat who led the way was killed by him first. In this complicated maze, he bumped back and forth, but as if he had some hope, he believed that he could escape.

go.

No one knows how long these bad rats have been living underground. They have been hiding underground in the old Dunling, unknown to anyone.

But soon the sound of rushing water became louder in the darkness, and Yager knew that he was almost outside, or another sewer, but it was better than staying in this dark tunnel.

There were rushing footsteps in the darkness behind him, and the monster was about to follow.

As Yager ran, he drew the dagger from his waist. Although he was scared, he felt that there should at least be room for counterattack. After all, he was once a member of the Templar Knights.

Breathing violently and heavily, he rushed out of the tunnel, staggering and almost falling into the ditch.

He came out.

Jager looked at this place with some joy. As he expected, this was a sewer, but beyond the entrance of the sewer was the Thames River. He could see the simple steps along which he could return to the city.

Under the strange sense of oppression, even this foreign country became familiar.

He hurriedly ran outside, but at this moment, he clearly heard the footsteps behind him. Lorenzo had already caught up with him. The staff and sword reflected the faint white light in the darkness, like the pursuing Death.

"Don't run away, aren't you going to kill someone and silence them?"

Lorenzo laughed and came holding the staff and sword tightly.

Yager didn't have the time or courage to reply. He hurriedly climbed out and walked back to the streets of Old Dunling. Perhaps because he was too embarrassed, the pedestrians on the street looked sideways. He still had the stench of the underground, and everyone frowned.

.

There was no need to care about the image. He had to find a way to get rid of Lorenzo and flee directly towards a crowded place. However, due to the filth and embarrassment on his body, pedestrians instinctively stayed away, and when Yager waved the shorts in his hands,

This has turned into a panic.

But this was just the beginning of panic. Then everyone saw the man following Yager. He was wet and looked much more embarrassed than Yager, but he was holding a staff and sword with murderous intent.

The well-informed residents of Old Dunling quickly understood the situation. This might be a street vendetta. Some righteous people wanted to come forward to maintain the somewhat chaotic law and order, but the man who was chasing behind them soon shouted loudly.

shouted.

"The Su Yalan Department is handling the case. If you don't want to die, get out of the way!"

Lorenzo shouted with confidence. He began to regret not borrowing Pres's police card. Of course, if Pres knew about this situation, he would also regret going back to sleep.

Hearing Lorenzo's roar, everyone's actions stopped for a moment. They were a little confused about what was true and what was false. After all, Lorenzo was not wearing a police uniform, but judging from his confident voice, he didn't seem to be either.

It's deceiving.

Seeing this scene, Yager could only run with all his strength. He kept running towards the crowd, pushing some goods on the street as he ran, seeming to create more chaos.

He did succeed. Due to Jager's sudden intrusion, the carriages on the street came to a sudden stop. Accompanied by the sound of horses neighing, the carriages tipped over and made a mess. This seemed to attract the attention of the mounted police, and they could hear the sound echoing around them.

There was a faint sound of iron whistles, and the mounted police were coming here.

Lorenzo was keenly aware of all this, and he knew very well that once the mounted police arrived, it would only complicate the situation, and even said that Jager would run away.

Thinking like this, Lorenzo stretched his hand to his arms. According to Article 7 of the "Lorenzo Holmes Detective Code", judging from the current situation, he had to interrupt the suspect before he escaped.

leg.

But his hand came up empty, and then Lorenzo remembered that his beloved Winchester was no longer there, and he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart, and then the macho man burst into tears.

In the rain of fire, Lorenzo was half killed. Of course, the Winchester did not end well. Lorenzo lost it in the explosion, although Arthur said that when clearing the battlefield,

I will search for him carefully, but Lorenzo estimates that judging from the firepower at the time, even if he can be found, it will be a mess.

It has been with Lorenzo for so many years, and his affection is as deep as that of a brother and sister, a beloved relative and friend.

Thinking of this, Lorenzo became furious and his murderous aura increased, which frightened Yager.

Chaos has spread throughout the street, and Yager is running around like a headless fly. He no longer expects to escape. He just wants to escape for a little longer. Every minute he can escape is a minute.

But suddenly he realized that the monster chasing him disappeared, and he was the only one left on the street. But then the fierce murderous intention came from behind, and Yager turned around sharply, just in time to meet the monster coming from the alley.

Lorenzo's sword continued to enlarge in his eyes, and the next moment the steel collapsed.

The instinct of being a Templar knight saved him at this critical moment. Jager instinctively swung the dagger. It briefly connected with the staff sword, but the next moment it was stopped by Lorenzo's unstoppable force.

unbalanced by strength.

Yager felt that he was fighting a monster, and his arms were numb from the shock, and his whole body began to fall backwards, losing his balance.

Lorenzo stepped forward with a fierce look on his face.

On the contrary, Yager did not struggle, but fell down, but immediately rolled up on the ground, threw his hands away, turned around and slashed at Lorenzo.

This unexpected blow almost hit Lorenzo, but fortunately he stopped immediately and did not follow closely, but then Lorenzo cursed angrily.

"You still dare to fight back?"

These words made Yager startled, and even his panicked heart stopped for a moment.

What's going on with this person? Isn't it possible to fight back no matter what?

He wanted to yell at Lorenzo, but his instinct drove him to flee. But as soon as he took a step, severe pain came from his ankle.

The stick sword accurately cut his ankle, and Yager fell down weakly, blood gushing out.

In any case, the suspect was incapacitated. Lorenzo didn't care whether he used a gun or a sword. He was very measured and only cut off the muscles. Otherwise, this vicious blow might have taken away Jager's entire leg.

Cut them all off.

Lorenzo walked over slowly, showing a victor's smile, even though he smelled terrible.

"From Feileng Cui?" he asked tentatively.

But Yager ignored him at all, just holding his injured ankle and moaning in pain.

Lorenzo squatted down and punched Yager, causing him to curl up in pain.

He used to hang out in the lower city, and they were all thugs, lunatics who licked blood from their swords. Sometimes, in order to get information, Lorenzo needed to torture them to extract confessions, but some of them still refused to speak.

Lorenzo thought for a long time about how to deal with them, and finally he found a way.

That is fear.

The detective showed a cruel smile and said slowly.

"It's finally in my hands. Don't worry, we still have a lot of time to get along."

He looked like a cannibal pervert. Just by looking at Lorenzo, he knew that he would not end well if he fell into his hands.

Jager's eyes were filled with fear. Lorenzo's hand reached for his throat, and invisible pressure beat his heart. The so-called God and faith could not save him at this moment. Compared with death, long torture would be enough.

It's chilling.

But just when the hand was about to grab his throat, the sound of rapid horse hooves sounded. Lorenzo guessed it was the mounted police. He didn't care about it. The mounted police had little impact on the current situation, but the next moment Lorenzo would

Renzo rose into the air.

At this moment, the great detective was also a little dazed, but then there was severe pain in his body, and his vision changed rapidly. He was knocked away several meters, and finally hit a street lamp. The heavy blow brought the entire lamp pole to the ground.

Constantly shaking.

The carriage stopped on the side of the road, and the wheels were only a few centimeters away from Jage. If it had strayed any further, he would have been crushed to death by the wheels.

"Are you still alive?"

The man opened the car door and looked at the embarrassed Yager.

When Yager saw him, his frightened expression turned to joy, but before he could say what it was, the man directly picked him up and dragged him into the carriage.

Everything happened very quickly, not even a minute. The carriage, which was not yet steady, began to accelerate. The coachman whipped the horse hard, trying to leave here quickly.

This collision is fatal to ordinary people, but Lorenzo is not an ordinary person. He stood up with difficulty, his whole body was filled with severe dull pain, but as long as he was given a little time, just a little time, the detective was able to stand up again.

Will be able to jump up and down.

But the carriage did not intend to give Lorenzo time. It had already begun to speed away. Lorenzo staggered a little, but he quickly endured the pain and gave chase.

"Damn it!"

Lorenzo cursed angrily, covering his chest with one hand.

Although it was not fatal, Lorenzo's condition temporarily declined a lot. There was an iron taste in his mouth and he was extremely uncomfortable.

But the carriage was getting further and further away, and Lorenzo angrily threw the sword in his hand. The sword light passed by and was nailed to the carriage.

With a powerless fury, Lorenzo could no longer catch up. He squatted on the ground, breathing rapidly.

More hoofbeats sounded, which made Lorenzo become alert. He stood up suddenly, but what caught his eyes were the belatedly arriving mounted policemen.

"Stay where you are!"

The mounted police shouted that now that the diplomatic mission is visiting, old Dunling has been placed under high security to prevent accidents, but even so, riots still occurred today.

"Don't get in the way."

Lorenzo spoke in a low voice. Although the time was short, it was enough for the carriage to escape far away, and he could no longer catch up.

He wanted to return to the Lower City, hoping that the intelligence agent would listen to him and stay where he was. He would definitely catch that guy.

"First warning!"

The mounted policemen also said angrily, loaded their bullets, and pointed their guns at Lorenzo.

Although this guy was embarrassed, he gave people a strange pressure, and they had to be extremely vigilant.

Lorenzo's movements stopped. Although he wanted to overthrow these people directly and continue investigating, he lived in a human society, and sometimes you have to abide by some rules, he said.

"I'm Lorenzo, Lorenzo Holmes! I'm an external detective from Suararan Hall. I'm investigating a case. Do you understand?"

As he spoke, a dull pain came from his chest.

The mounted policemen were a little surprised. They made eye contact with each other, but still did not move their guns away.

"Is there any proof?"

Proof? Lorenzo regretted more and more that he didn't get Press's police card. He shook his head.

"Then please cooperate."

The mounted police did not want to push Lorenzo into a hurry, so they softened their attitude a little.

Lorenzo was silent for a while, but just as he was about to say something, someone defended him.

"He is an external detective of Su Yalan Department. I have met him."

The sound of horse hooves gradually approached, and the sound seemed familiar.

Lorenzo turned his head, and the girl came riding a horse triumphantly. For a moment, Lorenzo suddenly felt as excited as seeing a relative.

"E...Eve?" Lorenzo said.

The last time he and Eve met was the night Lawrence appeared. Lorenzo wanted to sacrifice her to kill Lawrence... To be honest, Lorenzo's mentality at that time was completely different from his current mentality. At that time, he was an efficient man.

As long as the weapon can kill Lawrence, he doesn't even mind dying there himself.

But things are different now. Lawrence is dead, and Lorenzo has become more like a human being, retaining his humanity. Therefore, when I think back to that time, I can't help but feel guilty.

He was not ready to meet this girl. Of course, it would be good to meet again under this situation. Judging from Eve's initiative to save him, she was not angry about her decision. Such a big-hearted girl... A girl who is too considerate.

Okay, she must understand why she did what she did, right!

Lorenzo was thinking crazy, or justifying his decision, as if the grudge between him and Eve had long been gone, he walked over openly.

"Did you hear that? I really am!"

When old friends reunited, Lorenzo shamelessly approached her, but when he raised his head, he saw that Eve's face was a little cold, and his heart, which had just become happy, suddenly froze.

The girl stared at him, with a smile on her cold face... a sneer to be precise.

"Create chaos, financial losses..." Eve glanced at the street behind her. The chaos left by the chase was still there, and there were still people crushed by the overturned carriage.

"Wait! I'm investigating a case!"

Lorenzo felt a little bad, and he defended himself. After all, he was really investigating the case, even though the suspect had escaped.

"What's the use of talking to me? I'm just a mounted police officer who maintains law and order!"

Eve spread her hands and then threw out a pair of handcuffs.

"Handcuff me!"
