The city was shrouded in a drizzle of rain and revealed its original appearance—the dark gray, rust-red, iron-black walls had lost their luster due to the long-term erosion of the haze, and large inky black spots were obscuring the original appearance of the building, and even if it was bathed in raindrops, the stains could not be removed, and they hung like ugly scars.Faint white light and bits of yellow light weave through the exposed steel bars and wires, weaving a strange web of drizzle that envelops the entire city tightly, and everyone is trapped like an island, with nowhere to escape.Holden loves rain, even if it's a cold winter.Because rainy days can always awaken those childhood memories, wearing their beloved rain boots and raincoats, bouncing in puddles, the sound of the water is like continuous applause, no other games, not even small friends, just a person seems to have the whole world.At this time, the drizzle also relieved Holden's slightly nervous mood a little, at least, the sweat in his palm would not leak the horse's feet.The fierce expression on his face showed his ruthlessness and determination, but he was definitely a good citizen, and this was the first time that he coerced a stranger.After all his actions were done in one go, he was a little afraid in his heart - if he was really a professional killer, his recklessness and impulsiveness might be directly explained here; But if you think about it seriously, in the face of a professional killer, he will definitely not be caught and waiting to die.No matter what the outcome is, there is always a struggle."
Who are you?"
Holden lowered his voice, completely devoid of the shyness and restraint just now, and his determined eyes had an indomitable determination.But surprisingly, in the face of Hoden's close edge, especially the sharpness of his neck, the stalker was unmoved, his calm expression made people wonder if the facial nerves were damaged, and his steps did not reflexively soften because of the rolling air waves.On the contrary, a brutal anger erupted from the depths of the other party's eyes, colliding head-on with Holden's stormy momentum, without showing weakness."
Danger!"
Horden's mind sounded the alarm, and he could faintly feel a burning breath, but he didn't have time to react, his body was like electricity, his muscles trembled stiffly and slightly, and then the power to suppress the other party collapsed, and the other party instead grabbed Horden's neck, an offensive and defensive switch, and just pressed Horden to the wall."
Bang!"
Holden's back slammed into it, a tingle, and the transition between active and passive was in the blink of an eye.Horgan was not annoyed, even the nervousness disappeared, and the corners of his mouth sketched a helpless smile: sure enough, on a completely unfamiliar continent, his little combat power was simply a powerless scholar, and he didn't realize that psionic energy could also fight—and now he also realized how stupid his idea was."
Where's Samuel?"
At this time, it was the turn of the person who whispered and threatened, and the cold voice was like the sea of the Arctic Ocean mixed with thousands of years of ice, in the drizzle that was dripping down, so that Hoden couldn't help but shiver."
Samuel-who?"
Hodden frowned slightly, his mind full of question marks."
Don't play tricks on me!"
The other party raised his hand again and grabbed Holden's neck fiercely, not seeing how he gestured at all, a thin thunderbolt jumped across Holden's neck, and his back muscles stiffened again, "I saw you, two weeks ago, in Mr.
Adrian's tailor's shop, with Samuel." ”The other party's expression still hasn't changed much, but he can feel his mood fluctuations slightly from the tense muscles, obviously not as calm as he seems on the surface."
Last weekend, Samuel said he was going to meet with you, and then you all disappeared together for a whole week.Hoden Harrow, that's your name, right?
Now, you're showing up, but Samuel still hasn't, what's going on?
What the hell is happening to you?
”Wait, not a professional killer?
So, it wasn't sent by the Umani Church?
Hoden immediately caught the key message, "You mean, I've been gone for a whole week?"
And, did anyone else disappear with me?
”Hoden's reaction was completely unexpected by the other party, his first reaction was to look closely into Hoden's eyes, but he didn't find much information, but he still refused to trust Hoden easily - just now in the Umani Church, he could feel the laziness and casualness behind Hoden's smile.If not hypocrisy, at least not what it seems.At this time, Holden was also aware of the other party's resistance and suspicion, but he also realized that the other party, like himself, was investigating last night's fire - "You just showed up at the Umani church, right?"
Are you aware of the anomaly?
What clues did you follow to come to church?
”Hodden found that in fact, the other party was sitting on the bench of the Umani church just now, and his eyes had been scanning, but he had never noticed the other party's gaze.Now the memory is awakened.But apparently, judging from the other party's clumsy tracking skills, he did not follow him all the way, and should have noticed him in the Umani church.The iceberg face in front of him was still unmoved, and his whole body was full of distrust.Hodden hesitated for a moment, he decided to share information - although he had just met each other and couldn't trust each other, but now that he was in a situation of "people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat", he took the initiative to share some information, maybe he could get clues, "In the past week, all my memories have disappeared." ”"I don't believe you."
The other party finally spoke, and his stiff tone did not waver at all.But Hodden didn't care, and continued, "Last night, when I came to my senses, I appeared at Viscount Philo's private residence, and the whole villa was on fire.I didn't know what was going on and didn't have time to search elsewhere, the only thing I could confirm was that there was no one else around me. ”"I escaped by jumping into the river through the window.Now an attempt is also being made to find the truth. ”Hodden said with sincerity in his eyes.The other party did not respond, and seemed to be pondering the credibility of Holden's words."
I don't have to cheat on you, and more importantly, I don't have to hurt Samuel, and there is no motive if there is no conflict of interest."
Holden put an end to his statement, and then put on a "I'll see you next" expression, and the lazy expression of Ren Ren Zai was really a little underwhelming.The other party hesitated for a moment, "So, why did you come to the Umani Church?"
”"This nameless Mr.
Iceberg, do you have a name?
Or are you the mysterious Mr.
XYZ?
Like a magician in an old legend?
”Holden fought back unhurriedly - it was clear that the person who was coerced at this time was Holden, but his condescending and comfortable appearance put the other party in a predicament."
I've shared the information, so, now it's your turn, how the hell did you find the Umani Church?
And how did you notice me?
”Anti-customer-oriented, that is, a matter of blinking.()
