Chapter 45: Breaking Out of Danger
"What do you think of what just happened. Caitlyn smelled a looming crisis, and there were some things that Eric needed to explain.
"Hmm-" Eric muttered for a moment, then said indifferently, "there are some things I need to confirm. ”
"What's the matter?" asked Caitlyn.
"I want to know what the hell is going on with that memory from two years ago. Eric finally spoke up about his concerns, and he had been haunted by the authenticity of that memory.
"Maybe Leonardo made it up on purpose to confuse the eye, so why should you care. Chiko came up with a hypothesis.
Eric didn't answer, his instinct told him that the memory from 2 years ago must be hiding some crucial clues, and these clues might open another door to the Smiling Legion.
And what's behind that door?
At this time, the red dot on the screen suddenly spends up. Eric and his party immediately quickened their pace to follow, but they didn't take a few steps when bursts of gunfire were unexpectedly heard in the hollow tunnel, causing a "bang-bang" echo in the four walls of the tunnel.
Eric looked down at the screen in his hand, and saw that the red dots on the screen had actually begun to move rapidly towards them. Chiko and Caitlyn looked at Eric in shock. I saw Eric smile gloating as if he had been beaten with chicken blood: "No matter what happens, catch this old guy first." ”
A moment later, Leonardo appeared in a panic in the "ambush circle" prepared for him by the three Erics. At this time, he had a silver suitcase in his hand. Leonardo, sweaty and pale, staggered his way away, looking backwards from time to time, but his hands were always clasped tightly to his chest.
Just as he was about to flee to the mouth of the next tunnel, Chiko suddenly appeared and kicked the silver box in Leonardo's chest, and Leonardo, who was holding the box, was immediately kicked more than three meters away. Leonardo was slightly stunned at first, and then quickly got up from the ground, crawling and running in the opposite direction. But after a few steps, Caitlin suddenly jumped out of the cavern on the side of the tunnel where the corpse had been kept, blocking Leonardo's path. However, Leonardo was determined to escape, so he rushed over with his fat body. Caitlyn smiled coldly, took a small step forward, and threw a hard hook with her right hand that slammed into Leonardo's face.
Only a muffled sound of "poof" was heard, and Leonardo's huge body flew out again, and the silver chest and two front teeth in his hand were knocked into the air, drawing a smooth curve. At this moment, Eric leisurely jumped out of the cave on the other side and easily caught Leonardo's silver chest as if it were life.
Leonardo lay on the ground, clutching his bloody mouth and nose, whimpering in pain*. Chiko stepped forward, put on a warm smile, then flipped over Leonardo's body with one hand, pulled his hands to his back, and took out a black plastic rope to tie him up.
At this point, the gunfire gradually subsided. It seems that Leonardo's black-robed companions and their opponents should be almost evenly divided. Caitlyn and Chiko work together to pick up Leonardo and push him forward. Leonardo refused to give in, and cried with tears in his eyes: "You two demons, *, prostitute! and, you stray detective, bastard, give me back the box!"
Chiko grabbed Leonardo's neckline, punched Leonardo in the stomach, and asked expressionlessly, "Okay, genius scientist, let's talk about these gunshots first? Who did you meet, and who else?"
At this time, the gunfire gradually thinned out, and the two sides of the battle should have already divided the winner and loser. Leonardo looked anxiously in the direction of the gunshots, as if each shot had pinched a straw that had saved his life.
"What the hell is going on!" asked Caitlyn.
"How do I know!" Leonardo suddenly looked like a wild boar that had gone mad, "It's all you, you must have attracted them!" After speaking, Leonardo seemed to faint from anger.
"What to do now. Chiko heard a small set of footsteps cautiously approaching them, presumably Leonardo's roar that caught their attention.
"Let's go. Eric took a deep breath and stared at the intersection on the other side, as if there was an exit.
"What? The roads here are complicated, and you're sure you can get out of there. Chiko seemed to see Eric's intentions.
"Let's go. Caitlin lifted Leonardo, who had fallen unconscious, to the ground.
Chiko looked at the two men incredulously, but could only helplessly follow them through the hole on the other side.
"Are you sure you can get out?" I don't know how many intersections I have turned, and even Caitlyn has lost her way.
"Hmm. Eric seemed distracted and didn't pay much attention to Caitlin's problem.
"I'm just weird. What the hell is going on in that hotel. Was Mrs. Ross replaced halfway through, or was it a trap in the first place? Chiko's tone was filled with some frustration and chagrin.
"I must have been replaced halfway through, and when I entered the door, I noticed that the pair of heels at the door was about size 38, and Mrs. Rose, who brought us dinner, was wearing broken size 36 women's old slippers. Eric explained.
"You've already discovered the problem!" Hearing Eric's explanation, Chiko suddenly became angry.
"But that doesn't mean anything. Eric added.
"But if you had spoken up, we wouldn't be in the danger we are in. Chiko's voice began to ooze anger.
"Alright. Caitlyn interrupted the argument, "As a qualified agent, the most important thing to do now is to solve the problem at hand, not to dig through some irretrievable old accounts." ”
"But......" Qianzi wanted to speak and stopped.
There was a sudden silence in the dark tunnel, and three flashlights lit up the white bones that had been silent for centuries, and they were already in pieces, and it was impossible to tell whether this piece came from a man's skull or a woman's ecstasy.
"Front-face, left-turn. "Eric ran out of breath. Chiko and Caitlin follow Eric's instructions and turn into an empty tunnel mouth. As soon as he stepped further, he only heard five crisp "poofs", and five yellow lights lit up on each side of the tunnel, like two columns of soldiers in gold armor waiting for the arrival of the four of them.
"This is it.
Chiko and Caitlin were amazed by this special welcome. Compared with the eerie and eerie bones on the ground in other tunnels, this place is not only empty and spacious, but also shows a trace of warmth under the dim yellow light. There is a circular pool in the center, and when you look closer, you can see that in the center of the pool is carved an alchemical symbol that is exactly the same as the one you saw when you came.
Chiko looked around and exclaimed, "What kind of place is this?"
