1 Arthur

In the dark environment, Arthur heard the doorbell, got up from the couch, picked up the snack garbage bag on the coffee table, and held the gun in his hand. Slowly approaching the door, maintaining a posture that could attack at any moment, "Who." ”

"Me. No's voice.

Arthur's body relaxed, ready to open the door. But as soon as he touched the doorknob, his hand was withdrawn, "I didn't call you!"

"You hired me to keep you safe. No, outside the door, his voice seemed impatient, "I'm just doing my job." ”

Arthur frowned, quickly left the door, walked through the living room, and behind the heavy curtains, a trace of the curtain was removed, and the light entered the safe room through the small gap.

It fits the apartment layout of the southeastern unit building, which is small and cramped. Arthur looked downstairs behind the gap, where No's car was parked, and he could barely confirm that Nou's car was emptyβ€”unlike yesterday, when a vampire with a baby in his arms was sitting in the car......

Arthur left the curtain and returned to the door, still not opening, "Is there something going on outside?!"

"Are you sure you want me to talk to you outside the door? No's voice seemed to mock something, "Although part of the reason I bought this house as a safe house is that this building is inhabited by Republicans, who don't understand the federal language, but Arthur, do you want to test the Republicans' learning ability? I'll talk to you in the hallway about crime, aliens, and drugs-...... to see if any of the 'warm-hearted' republican neighbors will start calling the police......"

"Stop! Don't say it, don't say it!!" Arthur's irritated hand holding the gun was pinned behind him, and the other hand opened the door and glanced at Nuo, "Come in!

Noh pursed his lips and stepped into the door, "It's like this is your property." No, noticing Arthur's hand pinned behind him, and knowing that the other party was on guard, he shook his head, "If you don't trust me, you shouldn't entrust me." ”

"I didn't! you found me yourself, remember!" Arthur glared at No, closed the door, but still listened to the movement outside behind the door for a while, confirmed that Nou was alone, and then relaxed his grip on the gun.

"That's true. Nuo entered the safe house, looked at the space inside, there was food and drink garbage everywhere, and was a little unhappy, "You will either be found by me or by a vampire." So, I helped you, and you still have to thank me. ”

"I'm not so sure you deserve my thanks!" The gun in Arthur's hand was not put down, on the contrary, unlike the one hiding behind him just now, he now put the gun in the most conspicuous position - in front of him, facing Nuo, "After yesterday, I confirmed that you and the vampire are in the same group, right! That Zachary Grande has a lot to do with you!"

Of course, Nuo saw the muzzle of the gun facing him, "Whether it is shallow or not, it depends on the situation." Without a sense of crisis, he turned his back to Arthur, cleared a place on the couch that could be done, and sat down. Then he looked at Arthur, "But you really don't know anything." ”

"What do you mean!" is probably a kind of mentality that after someone is already suspicious, everything they say is like a threat. Arthur's tone was not good.

"Okay. Nou waved his hand, "Let's start from the beginning." Nou dug into the pocket of his clothes and pulled out a piece of paper, a copy of what was apparently something, "You bought the equipment for the robbery of the 0711 pharmacy from the 'General's Rest Station'. The paper was handed to Arthur, "Here are the details of the transaction." ”

Arthur was stunned for a moment, reached out and grabbed the copy, and glanced at it, "How did you have this?!Do you have a habit of investigating your employer?!"

Noyi pouted, "'General' is a descendant of Zachary Grande. They all had Toledo's blood in them. ”

Arthur's eyes widened, "What?!"

"Hey, Arthur, you're also a native of Barton, and we'll talk straight to the locals. Do you really think that the 'General' is the only remaining gang force in the Southeast, just because the 'General' is lucky? ”

"Isn't it because the 'General' is the only gang in the original Southeastern Gang that deals in weapons?!" Arthur glared.

"If there is an illegal arms trade in Barton, hehe, do you, a native of Barton, really think that such a good business should be run by these gangsters in the Southeast, not those families in the West End?"

Arthur closed his mouth and stared at No.

Nuo took out another piece of paper, "This is the transfer details of the monitoring and maintenance records of the 0711 pharmacy you bought from Aix Security......"

Without waiting for Nuo to show it, he was already snatched by Arthur, glanced at it the same, and then crumpled it gloomily.

Nou had no problem with this behavior, "Half of the Aix security is a 'general'. ”

Arthur's face twitched, but he didn't ask.

Nuo seemed to be a little disappointed, probably Nuo had prepared the answer, but now he couldn't say it.

As for us, we don't need to answer No, we know better than No, about the 'General' and the security of Aix.

Nono didn't continue to take things out, "You know, that little project of yours, the robbery of the 0711 pharmacy, has been under the watchful eye of other vampires from the beginning. Nou shrugged his shoulders, "Wonderful things, the last thing to come out of nowhere, appear in front of you, and it's not the Toredo vampires who have watched you do this from the beginning, it's Reimer and Gangaro who are making trouble for you. ”

Noh laughed, "That's funny to say. It's also the Torredo vampire who has been in your blind spot, and you've escaped the middle of Gangero and Remer before running back to the southeast to avoid the police. And in the southeast, you can't find Aix Security who you think is from the West End (the Falken family), you are looking for the only gang you are familiar with, which is the 'General', and then, as the son of Zachary Grande, the 'General' naturally doesn't want to care about you when he hears that you ran away from Zack, so I appeared. ”

Arthur raised his gun and pointed it at No, "What do you want from me?!"

"You should have asked this question earlier. Nou smiled at Arthur, "You should have asked when you said a bunch of things like a madman about inhuman vampires, and I took your words very calmly, and told you that I was very experienced with this kind of thing, and that I was the only person who could help you." ”

Arthur's mind knotted, and it took a moment for him to realize what Noh meant, "You're really with the vampires!"

Noh shook his head, but the words were, "That's why I said you don't know anything." Nuo leaned on the sofa for a while, there was too much garbage, and he couldn't find a comfortable position, so he gave up and sighed, "I let you entrust me, you don't have to doubt this matter." If I want to harm you, I won't let you go through the entrusted process. Nou glanced at Arthur, "I'm in this profession, and I care a lot about the success rate of my commission." So, you can rest assured that I have made it my job to keep you safe and I will keep you safe. ”

Arthur did not put down the gun in his hand, repeating, "What do you want from me?!"

Noh was quiet for a moment, as if to sort out his emotions, "Like I said, you're too late to ask this question." Looking at Arthur, "I don't get anything out of you right now." ”

"What do you mean!"

"Barton's five Gangeros, all dead. Noh looked at Arthur and said so.

Arthur's mouth moved, and he could clearly feel what kind of stress reaction the person's body was makingβ€”

As it should be. In Arthur's mind, Gangero is the vampire he saved from Remer, although he doesn't understand the meaning of Gangaro treating himself as a descendant, but the fact is that Arthur can at least count on his offending Remer, and Gangero can support him.

"Zachary Grande. Nou waved his hand, "Zach. "I just went to the 'General' and asked the 'General' to go to Nophile on his behalf." Nou paused, looking at Arthur, "Another vampire clan entrenched in Barton Pais. Have the 'General' go on behalf of Toredo and inform Nophile of the death of Gongro. ”

Nuo pursed his lips, "You don't need to know the reason for this, the relationship between these vampires is very complicated, and you probably won't understand it when I tell you." ”

"I don't care!!" This is a bit too forceful, the reason, just said. This sentence forced to convince yourself.

Nou continued without any reaction, "Patton's Gangero is dead, and your identity as a descendant of Gangaro is useless. Nozai shook his head, "It's of no use to me." "As if talking to himself," Hmph, I thought that the original Hidden Alliance clan that Zach cared for the most was Gangaro, after all, he was by the side of the saints, and he was a vampire working under Benjamin, and Ramer and Nophile were not as good as ......" Nou continued to shake his head, "I didn't expect Gangaro to die in Glendry." ”

Arthur put away his gun and turned to run away.

The second half of Nuo's words can be regarded as saying to himself. But for Arthur, this statement is very ambiguous - Gangaro died on the territory of Grande, Toredo vampires, can it be understood that Toledo and Reimer are together?

Ignore Arthur's misunderstanding for now.

What does Nuo really mean, we have to understand -

In several of Barton's old clans of the Hidden Alliance, Reimer is bound to Smith on the West End, and Nophile is bound to the wizards of Paising. This is a very impressive fact. Smith is a West End native whom Zach admits to admiring, and Spey's wizard Sbella is also a friend of Zack. Zach has done quite a few things for both sides at Barton.

Then look at Gangero.

Gangero and the Saint Sisi were bound, a relationship that had been completed before coming to Barton. Gangero then became an employee of the Zumen Office, working directly under Zack's younger brother, Benjamin. Be objective.

Under this objective, Nuo's conclusion is not wrong. Toredo, our Zack, the Gangaro clan is the one he takes care of the most! He is a saint of the vampire origin faith, and he is the younger brother of his own family, so he is better than a friend in the West Side and a friend of Paising! In Barton's several old clans of the Hidden Alliance, Reimer is bound to Smith in the West End, and Nophile is bound to Paising's wizard. This is a very impressive fact. Smith is a West End native whom Zach admits to admiring, and Spey's wizard Sbella is also a friend of Zack. Zach has done quite a few things for both sides at Barton.

Then look at Gangero.

Gangero and the Saint Sisi were bound, a relationship that had been completed before coming to Barton. Gangero then became an employee of the Zumen Office, working directly under Zack's younger brother, Benjamin. Be objective.

Under this objective, Nuo's conclusion is not wrong. Torredo, our Zack, is the Gangaro clan that cares for him the most! He is a saint of vampire origin faith, and he is the younger brother of his own family, so he is better than his friends in the West Side and Paisying's friends!

The backer of the old division of the Hidden Alliance in Barton's foothold, Gangero is the highest standard!

That's what Nou really meant - he misjudged Gangaro's place in Zack's heart.

And this miscalculation has revealed No's true intentions - he wants to keep Arthur, but he is only carrying out his honest principle with Zack: to curry favor with vampires.

Is it all clear, what Nuo just said, the current Arthur can't give Nuo anything, what he said is the fact that Gangaro is dead now, which makes Nuo realize that he can't please anyone!

Return to the moment when Arthur turned around and prepared to flee.

No, looking sideways at Arthur, who turned around, watched Arthur rush to the door and open the door without any movement.

After the sound of forcibly opening the door, Arthur looked back gloomily at Nuo, "Why can't you open it!"

Tut. This guy would ask such an idiotic question. The idiot's is not the question, but the object of the question. Obviously, Nuo didn't want him to run away like this, so he did it. After all, this is Nou's safe house.

"What are you anxious about, you are useless to me, I will naturally let you go. Noh looked at Arthur, "But before you leave, do you want to settle the commission with me?" ”

Nuo's words now are completely joking.

If all he wanted was the commission, he wouldn't have said so much to Arthur.

Arthur didn't waste time on the door in vain, rushed to the window, and halfway there, grabbed a chair, looking like he was going to break the window.

Nuo didn't say anything, "This is my safe house, if you go out of the window easily, I'll spend money here for nothing." ”

Arthur didn't listen, he raised his arm, and the chair in his hand slammed into the window.

Nothing happened except that the curtains shook a little by the sassafras.

Arthur picked up the gun again, opened the safe, and aimed it at No, "Let, I, out, go!!"

"You haven't been watching the news lately. No, still unresponsive, instead pointed to the TV across the couch. It's an old TV, but it should work, "I should watch it, at least care about the companions you robbed before." Do you know that your companion has been caught by the police? ”
