Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Return

The open flames were quickly extinguished, and diesel pump-driven fire water cannons played a decisive role in the process. At this time, only a few firefighters were still holding shovels and fire axes to clean up the wreckage, and the onlookers gradually dispersed.

"There were six buildings that were completely destroyed, and half of a small workshop was burned down. The point of the fire has not yet been confirmed, and it is believed to be one of the three single-family buildings. ”

Wu Ran couldn't help frowning while listening to the report of the squad leader and looking at the simple map of Kamla City in his hand. The red circle, which represents the possible point of the fire, unsurprisingly contains the residence of Perrier.

"Where is this house in the middle now? Take me to see it. Wu Ran picked up the shovel beside him, and his murderous aura overflowed.

"Yo, isn't this Sheriff Wu Ran?" Wu Ran was just about to move his steps, but he heard a familiar "greeting" behind him crawling up his spine. "The old man is fine, don't worry about the sheriff."

Wu Ran almost jumped on the spot. It was none other than General Perrier, who had slashed and killed countless times in his heart.

Of course, Wu Ran would not be naïve enough to attack him on the spot. His eyes widened, and he carefully looked at the out-of-fashion figure in front of him a few times: a handful of hair on the right burned out, and even the sparse white hair was found to be pitch black; A corner of the gorgeous garment was burned, and several holes were burned; The face and hands were covered with a thin layer of soot.

"Hey, the old man has also suffered a lot! You see, the old man has been homeless since then. And ask the Pollution Bureau to do justice and find out who is burning this damn fire......"

Perrier is worthy of the old way, and the opening is a rake. Not only that, but he also pronounced Wu Ran's wu as a polluted wu - I don't know if this was unintentional or intentional, but the former is more likely, after all, Perrier is unlikely to know Chinese.

But this "dirt" was particularly harsh in Wu Ran's ears - since junior high school, Wu Ran was called dirty by his classmates, and this nickname followed him all the way to college.

The consequences of calling a nickname depend on identity. It's normal for friends to call each other stupid. But if a sworn enemy, or a master who forces people to cause trouble every day, is a stupid criticism, then don't be angry to see the hell.

Do you have the dirt to call? A nameless fire ignited in Wu Ran's heart, and even ten sets of fire water guns might not be able to extinguish it. He endured his fury and said, "The cause of the fire is still under investigation, please be calm, Mr. Perrier." ”

"It's still investigating—that's good." Perrier's eyes revealed a hint of cunning, "It's a pity that my house is full of confessions and documents that prove my innocence, and this is a fire, sheriff, you have to administer justice to me......"

Wu Ran was almost 100% sure that this was the fire that Perrier had lit himself—those unwarranted documents and documents were undoubtedly paper, so how could any paper survive such a fire?

"Justice is at ease in the hearts of the people." Wu Ran squeezed out this sentence from his mouth. Unexpectedly, Wu Ran, one of them, had not yet realized what Perrier was planning, but the crisis was approaching step by step......

"The fire outside has been extinguished." Noysas looked up from his desk, and the first thing he saw was the Denarius Chamber of Commerce buddies rushing in. "Those firefighters taught by people from other worlds really have two strokes, as if some water was pumped out of the river and the fire was extinguished......"

"Hmm." Neuesas glanced at the errand boy and continued to nail his gaze to the wooden table in front of him.

The wooden table was filled with all sorts of "Chinese goods" brought from the city of West El Tamen-East, all of which were essential for the people - but here they were undoubtedly enjoyed by a few.

From toilet paper, sewing steel needles, small scissors, matches, latex gloves, to beautifully packaged condiments and spices, the goods on the table are not much in volume, but they cover almost the entire range of livelihood products provided by Mendong City.

"So let's go on, what is this for?" Neus Isaas picked up a wood-painted plastic cylinder from the table, it had been stripped of the plastic wrapping film on the outside, and Neus Isaas really had no way of knowing what it was for.

Clough, who was sitting at the table, respectfully took out a piece of paper and spread it on the table, held the back end of the plastic tube, opened the lid at the front end and rotated the back end slightly: "This is a seasoning bottle that can adjust the thickness, and the seasoning grains in it are called 'black pepper'......

Neusas took the black pepper shaker and looked at every corner of the bottle, twisting the sprawling rim a few times from time to time.

The sometimes coarse black pepper powder is sprinkled on the paper, and the ground black pepper also gives off a charming fragrance. After a few compliments, Neuesas motioned for Clough to take the paper away from the table.

"I'm hungry." Noysas rubbed his hands together and said to the head of the Denarius Chamber of Commerce. "I've heard that the people of this other world are quite good at food, and I'd like to see it, but it's a pity that there are no ...... in this Kamla city."

Clough at the table folded the white paper in half and poured the crushed black pepper into a wooden bowl from the kitchen. These black peppers are worth a lot of money now, and no one wants to throw them in the trash. Although the black pepper is said to be grate, the stew is also excellent at night.

"Take these things away." As soon as Neus Esas leaned back in his chair with his head in his hands, he began to bring the conversation to the right harbor. "Actually, in addition to coming to Elta at the behest of my father to explore the path of profit, I also really want to go to the city of people from another world to explore, it is said that there are business opportunities everywhere, and gold treasures are ...... to be picked up."

The principal then glanced at the men and servants around him, and motioned for them to stand aside. Then he whispered to Clough, "This discussion has nothing to do with you, but it is inevitable that this distinguished guest from the Bilunar Church will ask some questions about Mendong City, and I will call you back then." Now you should go and comfort your partner. She's been a little out of the way since she started...... You kid is very lucky, you soaked the 'Ruby Pupil' in your hand, so don't lose her! Go ahead! ”

Clough breathed a sigh of relief, snatched the door out of the side door of the parlor, and walked straight to the room where Wolf was staying: Wolf had been in an inexplicable state of panic and confusion since the flicker of the afternoon, which made Clough, who was anxious to entertain his guests, frightened and anxious. What is surprising is that Wolf overreacts, and what is anxious is his dilemma in front of his lover and business opportunities.

The door creaked open, and Clough was greeted by a ruby pupil curled up in a white bed; Her red hair was scattered across the sheets, and her face was buried deep in her knees.

"Clough, you're finally here......," Wolf looked up slowly, "I think we're going to have to get out of Elta and escape the flash of death...... It's going to ruin us all......"

"It's alright, Wolff." Clough sat down on the bed and hugged the red-eyed bachelor, who was still trembling slightly and had some fever. "The radio in the city has said that it will not pose a threat to our survival, we will only see flashes."

"No, Clough." Wolfe's eyes were bloodshot, "You won't understand, such a weapon is a god of death that can destroy all life on the entire planet, and none of us will be able to escape by then...... No, we should run to the ends of the earth and hide from these damn things...... Maybe there, deep in the mountains and forests or in the valleys of the mountains, you can get out of the way, probably, Clough, my dear Clough, if only you could abandon your dreams and ambitions, and save your life, let us go now. ”

Clough didn't know why, he felt that she was a little abnormal in front of her, and felt that Wolfe, as the pupil of ruby, must have some basis for what he said, not a false imagination. At least the conclusions deduced by her knowledge are not something she can deny......

"Tell me, my dear, what the hell is that glitter? What is it going to do to destroy the big ball under our feet......? How could it be destroyed by such a weapon, which was the paradise created for us by the 'true gods'? ”

Leaving melancholy scratches on his face, Wolfe painfully grabbed the fragments of his memories and said, "I vaguely remember that it was the 'Arrow of the Broken Star', the 'Sail of the Ship of the Sea of Stars', and ...... Oops, I can't really remember. But Clough, you have to believe me, what I remember must be true, it's true......"

The slurred words gradually turned into a language that Clough did not understand, and Clough listened carefully to the words, and found that the language was not Chinese, and he continued to hug his lover tightly, hoping that she would be able to escape from the unknown fear......

"Maybe it's fate." It took a long time for Wolff, who switched back to Elta's lingua franca, to come to his senses. "Indeed, with it, the power of the West's flash, if it intends to destroy us, it is useless for us to flee wherever we go. Clough, are you listening? ”

"Yes, I'm here, all the time." Clough hurriedly clenched his partner's hand, his fingers interlocked, for fear of loosening her and what she was going to say next from his palm.

The red-eyed bachelor's lips opened slightly, and he said word by word: "Clough, the true god is back." The true master who created the whole world and can change it at will, the true God...... They're back. And I don't know what they're trying to do. The familiar feeling tells me...... The true God has returned. ”
