Chapter Eighty-Six: The Hunter
About ten minutes later, the scene of the previous battle was surrounded by police cars. Angela Medici herself was also surrounded by many bodyguards.
"Are you alright? Angel!"
Louise Linden also rushed to Angela's side, her face a little pale, and her pale golden eyes contained anger and self-reproach.
Angela smiled bitterly and glanced at the ambulance next to her: "I'm fine, as long as I take some medicine and recuperate for a few days, it can be solved." It's just that Lina's injuries are a bit serious, and the Holy Healer said that the vitality in her body has been drained by the Divine Blood Stone I used, and he doesn't dare to use the Holy Healer Technique rashly, which will make her situation worse. For her to be fully healed, it would take a period of time for complex therapy. ”
"It's my fault, I'm too anxious and unresponsive. ”
Louise Lindon looked slightly gloomy: "I'm sorry I couldn't help you." ”
At the beginning of the rescue, she should have thought of the possibility that the other party would use the 'Dark Rune Stone' to forcibly drag the fighters on their side into the dark world.
If she could have taken a little precautions, the situation would not have been so sinister.
"Don't say that, Louise. I was also surprised by this situation, they actually have a way to fight against the 'Dark Rune Stone'. The other party obviously came prepared and expected your reaction. ”
Angela looked at the ruins around her, with a slight hint of helplessness and shame in her eyes: "If you want to be careless, I am the one who is really careless, I didn't expect them to be so crazy." You've done your best, Louise. If you really feel sorry for me, do me a favor. Please, can you help me count how many houses were damaged this time, and how many dead and injured there are in total?"
Louise frowned, then shook her head decisively, and said in a nonchalant tone: "I may have to say sorry again, this is our Lynden Group matter Angel, I invited you over." We cannot escape the blame for this incident. ”
She didn't give Angela a chance to argue, and directly changed the topic: "The mastermind of this assassination, do you have any suspicions?"
"There's some speculation, but it's not for sure. ”
Angela sighed: "I think most of them are my people, my father probably wouldn't have thought of it, they can't wait now." ”
"Mr. Michelle is just too indulgent and negligent to them. I hope that after this incident, he can really pay attention to it. ”
Louise snorted softly, and her voice was dissatisfied: "Speaking of which, this time it was also exploited by those guys, most of the police force in Atlanta, as well as those FBI, DHS (Department of Homeland Security), and even the power of the Bright Protestantism, were restrained by that artifact." ”
Angela is also very concerned about this matter: "Hasn't you found the whereabouts of that thing yet?"
"I don't know, there are a lot of rumors now, and I can't confirm them. ”
Then Louise's expression moved slightly, and she looked at the scene in front of her: "I've seen the scene and the corpse, it should be a very strange guy who saved you, I think Angela, do you know him-"
Her voice stopped abruptly, because there were a few guys in suits and leather shoes over there, striding towards them, the first of them, about forty years old, with a high hairline and sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, all of which highlighted the shrewd and capable temperament of this guy at a glance.
"That's Edmund Bedman, one of the F.B.I.'s agents in Atlanta, and he's supposed to be here to ask you about it. If you want to find out who is behind the scenes, you can cooperate a little, this is a fifteenth-level demonic hunter with extremely strong investigation ability, and he is notoriously shrewd and cunning. Of course, if you don't want to speak, don't bother with him, or wait for your lawyer to arrive. Atlanta's law and order leadership is, after all, still in the city police department. ”
Just as Louise was introducing Angela, the man had already walked up to them, his expression unusually solemn.
"Ladies, how are you doing? Let me introduce you, Edmund Bedman, the head of the FBI secret service, who is in charge of urban security in Atlanta. ”
"Angela Medici. ”
Angela took the initiative to reach out and shake the hand: "I've actually heard of you Mr. Baedman, the Labrador of Atlanta, right?"
The so-called 'Labrador' is a hunting dog with a high IQ and a loyal and friendly reputation, which is undoubtedly a reputation for a magical hunter and agent.
"I'm honored,"
A smile appeared on Edmund Bedman's face: "Miss Medici, I have a question for you here. My colleague, I found that there were a lot of bullets at the scene, and some traces of magic were gone, and it seems that someone deliberately erased them afterwards?"
"Is there such a thing? I don't know. ”
Angela looked stunned: "I'm sorry, I was concerned about my maid's injury at the time, she was very badly injured. ”
Bedman couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, "Forgive me, Miss Medici, I guess you know who that man is, right? I mean the one who saved you and Miss Lena Edric, otherwise you wouldn't have finished the affair?"
Louise suddenly turned cold: "Mr. Baedman, if I understand correctly, are you accusing my friend of committing a crime?"
"No, no, if it is a crime to act bravely. In accordance with the Rescue Responsibility Act and the Good Deeds Act, Miss Medici's friend was not liable. Although Angela's behavior did cause some obstacles and troubles to our investigation. But for such a trivial crime, we can choose not to prosecute. ”
Bedman shook his head: "I'm just curious, what kind of person killed Alan Wood." ”
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bedman. The man was wearing a mask and an overcoat the whole time, and I don't know who he was. As for the evidence you said about destroying it, I don't know the situation. ”
Angela still maintained a friendly tone, and at the same time, there was curiosity in her eyes: "Alan Wood, is that the name of the killer right? ”
"Of course, this is a new star in the killer world, a magical shadow artist who is not yet thirty-five years old. The point is that his fighting skills are also exceptionally strong. Without preparing in advance, I probably wouldn't be his opponent. In fact, several level 15 professionals in America have died at his hands. ”
Bedman said this, with a slight exclamation on his face: "This is what surprises and inquires me, if I am not wrong. Miss Medici, this friend of yours should be less than level seven, right?"
At this time, opposite him, both girls were slightly surprised.
The difference is that Angela Medici was amazed at her investigative abilities, while Louise Linden was amazed at Baedman's inference.
With less than level seven, can you kill a thirteenth-level Demon Shadow Master? This makes people have to be curious.
As they were talking, they heard a cry in the distance: "Hey, Mr. Baedman, what are you doing? I suspect you're trying to trick my employer into confessing, it's a violation." I don't think Atlanta's Labrador would make such a mistake, would it?"
Edmund Bedman looked sideways, then let out a disdainful grunt.
Coming in from outside the blockade was Harvey Spector, an unusually difficult lawyer.
