Chapter 254: Death's Kiss

"Interesting, it seems that Lilith is right. It is possible that at least two people fled to three different locations. ”

Gu Yu nodded, very satisfied with this junior. He was older than this kid when he joined the Killer Order, and he wasn't able to get to HQ that soon and live in this bar.

"Tell me your name, I want you to be with me for the next two years. ”

Gu Yu has the idea of increasing his subordinates again, there is no way, there are too few people under him who can use them. And as the time in the future becomes more and more urgent, he will not have time to cultivate the Iron Flower Arm and White Scar to the point where he can quickly adapt to high-level confrontation.

Therefore, directly finding the right person is the most cost-effective way at present.

"Carl, you can call me Carl. But I don't want to follow anyone, I want to work hard and be a solo traveler. ”

Karl paused slightly and rejected Gu Yu's invitation.

"So how about I pay to work for me on a mission. I remember that the top 10 killers were all eligible to hire the killers who were further ranked. ”

Gu Yu laughed, they should have come here to find clues to the death of the clown, but now they are talking about it.

I don't know how the clown's corpse should feel when he hears these words?

"Top 10?"

Karl was obviously a little incredulous, although he had just arrived at the headquarters, he had already met everyone from fourth to tenth two days ago, and he had also seen the duke. And the third earl had just died during the day.

Then this person claims to be in the top ten, and there will only be one position left, and that is the first place, that is, their emperor.

And Gu Yu really doesn't look like a person with the title of emperor.

"Don't believe it?" Gu Yu laughed, wanting to tease the little guy.

"Show me your badge, that thing doesn't fake. ”

Carl still made up for the rules about the killer organization for a while, knowing that the badge representing their identity could never be faked.

When Gu Yu heard this, his face became strange, and his two badges were given to Jotun and Snake Queen as a reward for their daring to work.

At that time, Gu Yu, who was targeted by the monarch killer, asked for these two badges to no avail.

"I'm sorry, but I gave that thing to someone else as payment. Jotun, you've probably heard of the one who plays with computers. Just ask him. ”

Gu Yu said indifferently, and in Carl's eyes, this is like a bragging senior who dares to continue to talk cheeky and deceitful nonsense after being exposed by himself.

He didn't take it to heart, but he also maintained the respect he deserved for his predecessors, and he didn't say anything to mock it, but he still had a little weird eyes.

"Forget it, I'll explain it to you later. ”

Gu Yu looked at Carl with an obvious look of a fool, and thought to himself that he couldn't deal with children.

His younger brother is a few years older than Carl, but when he was the same age as Carl, he was much more sensible.

"By the way, what's the matter with your voice? because of a neck injury?"

In order to break the embarrassment, Gu Yu could only find a topic to ask. However, I regret it as soon as I say it, and in the Western cultural environment, unless the person concerned takes the initiative to bring it up, it is better not to ask about the defects of others.

It seems that even if you are yourself, there are times when your thoughts are out of tune.

"My father tried to kill me with a red-hot iron rod, and although he didn't succeed, he left me with a lifetime of memories, which was the same thing that gave me my life. ”

Karl didn't mind much, pulling open his collar, and the scar from his neck to his abdomen was getting more and more terrifying.

"In a few days, Lilith would take me to fix my skin. She says that a real killer needs to be physically perfect, or have enough camouflage. ”

Carl's tone was understated, and Gu Yu didn't ask what happened to his father, it must not be a good thing anyway.

It's the first time we met and got to know each other, and then it's time to get down to business.

Gu Yu walked up to the clown, this guy really looks like an actor who plays the role of Ron in the "Harry Potter" movie. Whether it's hair color or face shape.

"That guy was his younger brother, and because Mr. Hertrau was older, he wasn't selected as an actor. ”

Carl explained as if he knew Gu Yu's doubts, or what anyone who saw the Joker's true face would wonder about.

He had seen the clown when he first came to Old Will's Bar, and the middle-aged uncle still liked him very much.

Gu Yu chuckled, he didn't expect the clown to have such a past.

However, it didn't seem appropriate to laugh in front of a dead person, and Gu Yu didn't care so much, not paying attention to Carl's sadness at all. Seeing Gu Yu's posture, he hated Gu Yu even more, even if he was also a senior.

"Although it looks like a traumatic injury, it is supposed to be a weapon that caused the poisoning, and the pressure in the heart plummeted, and the external pressure increased and the ribs collapsed. And he was dead long before that. ”

Gu Yu briefly inspected the clown's body a few times, and felt more and more familiar with the scene of his death.

"It's the kiss of death, a peculiar hook. If the toxin is not planted, it doesn't even kill people, but it's good for piercing the skin and injecting something. ”

Gu Yu gestured with his hand, describing this configuration weapon that was actually more like a toilet race.

Carl had read a lot of the materials Lilith had prepared and knew what a Kiss of the Grim Reaper was.

And the name doesn't come from the fact that the weapon requires close contact with the target's skin, but from the poison it is equipped with.

The front end of this weapon is made from a special plant rhizome that is replaced every time it is used, and its toxicity comes from the sap in it.

This is due to the natural shape of the rhizome and the stiffness of the rear end of the connection, which can be connected to the back half of the weapon.

Over time, this weapon has been passed down like this, and no one has ever thought of making a hook that is durable enough to be paired with other, more stable poisons.

They always like to stick to tradition, Gu Yu thought so, and reached out to remove the wound on the neck of the clown's corpse.

The wound looked like a mark left by a lover's kiss, which is one of the sources of its name.

"When this weapon is used, it must be ensured that there is a secondary hand that does not allow the plant juice at the front to leak out, and that they are separated when they escape. So, which one do you want to grab first?"

Gu Yu looked back at Carl and realized that the kid should know the Joker. Otherwise, he would not have known his real name and would have called him Mr. Hertrau.

"The one with the weapon. ”

Carl replied subconsciously.
