Better than me?

How dare you say it!

Fries stared at the cellar, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the cold on his body gushed uncontrollably.

For the normally calm Fries, there are few things that excite him.

Unless......

Qin Ran is involved!

That's it at this time.

After becoming Qin Ran's follower, he has always regarded himself as Qin Ran's strongest follower.

After all, the 'blood man' Odoc is like this, he doesn't pay attention to it at all.

However, the upper evil spirits are different.

He could clearly feel the power of the superior evil spirit.

Moreover, there is a slight sense of weirdness in this power.

This weirdness is what Fries fears the most.

Without a doubt, this is his biggest contender to become the strongest follower of that adult.

"Perhaps, I'm a little behind now."

"But, I'll catch up."

Fries didn't hide his thoughts, and said straight to the cellar.

Of course, he would never impulsively jump and theorize with the superior evil spirits.

Because, he didn't want to ruin the adult's plan because of his recklessness.

Turning, Fries picked up the umbrella standing in the doorway and hurriedly disappeared into the rain.

……

As the night progresses, the rain becomes lighter, but that doesn't stop residents in Eikander from going home early.

Of course.

Among them, some people are destined to need to be busy.

Pudek looked at the many corpses in front of him with a solemn face.

Except for the two corpses that were charred in the wreckage of the car, the remaining corpses all revealed strangeness.

One seemed to have been sprayed with liquid nitrogen and became an ice sculpture.

The other one was as if the steam hammer had been smashed several times, turning into a puddle of mud, and even his face could not be distinguished.

The remaining six people, all of whom were hanged.

Their tongues were ripped out and wrapped around their necks, and Pudek could tell that the man was extremely professional.

did not tear off the tongue in the process of pulling, but also just covered the rope that really hung these people.

From a distance, the six people really looked as if they had been hanged by their own tongues.

But what made Pudek look solemn was not the way these people died.

Rather, the identity of these people.

"Confirmed?"

Pudek asked his assistant.

"The smashed flesh and two charred corpses cannot be confirmed, the rest can be confirmed."

"They're all the so-called 'Night Squad'."

The young assistant's face was slightly pale, and he tried not to breathe as he spoke.

It's just too bloody.

This young assistant, who thought he was brave, vomited very simply when he saw the charred and muddy corpses when he got out of the car.

Then, when checking which hanged corpses and frozen corpses, I couldn't help but vomit again.

"Take it easy."

"Next time, remember to bring a mint."

"It'll help you get used to it quickly."

Seeing that the tall assistant was as helpless as a little girl, Pudek took out the mint candy in his hand and threw it to the other party.

The assistant immediately swallowed the mints, and the coldness on the tip of his tongue made him feel a little better when he was gagging.

"What should we do?"

The assistant asked, pointing to the corpse.

"Do it according to the rules."

"What about surveillance?"

"Did you find anything inside?"

After saying this, Pudek walked over to the corpse again.

The middle-aged sheriff doesn't have any good feelings about the so-called 'Night Squad', but that doesn't mean he will abandon his duties.

"Nope!"

"The surveillance here is hacked, and there is no record of it."

"Moreover, because of today's heavy rain, this place is very remote, and no one has seen anything unusual."

The assistant immediately reported.

"Hacked again?"

"Those people in the technical department, are they really eating dry food?"

Pudek frowned and scolded in a low voice.

The assistant smiled bitterly and did not speak.

Because, he knows very well, the colleagues in the technical department are really trying their best, but the old equipment, the shortage of funds, and the constantly changing urban area, the technical department, which is already overstretched, is becoming more and more difficult to manage, and even, to a certain extent, the technical department of Akander City is barely functioning at this time.

These are things that Pudecker doesn't know.

In other words, the middle-aged sheriff was deliberately excluded from this circle.

Seeing the middle-aged sheriff seriously investigating the scene, the assistant couldn't help but sigh.

He wanted to tell the middle-aged sheriff the truth, but he couldn't open his mouth.

He knew very well that once he spoke, not only would he not solve anything, but he would also make things even more troublesome.

Just when the young assistant was full of confusion, a car in the distance completely ignored the policeman's obstruction and drove straight into the scene.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were drawn to it.

The door was pushed open, and a tall man stepped out of the car, wearing a black suit and leather shoes, with a cold face and no expression, looking like a robot.

The posture of walking is as if it has been measured, and each step is exactly the same distance.

"Stop."

The middle-aged sheriff shouted, and the surrounding police officers even pulled out their guns and pointed them at each other.

However, the other party didn't pay attention to these at all, and just walked towards the corpse.

"Put down the gun!"

"Put down your guns for me!"

An almost angry voice sounded from inside the car, and a short man with half-white hair and a puffed stomach jumped out of the car.

"Director?"

The surrounding police officers were stunned for a moment, and subconsciously put away their guns.

"Pudek has none of your business here."

The short man waved his hand at the middle-aged sheriff, and then, running quickly towards the tall man before, before he reached the tall man, the chief asked in a flattering tone: "Your Excellency, do you have any other orders?" ”

Major?

Someone from the federal military?

Everyone present heard the director's words clearly.

Then, everyone thought of rumors that the 'Night Squad' was part of the military.

Could it be that the rumors are true?

The middle-aged sheriff was all sideways.

"Who's Sheriff Pudeck?"

The tall major asked directly.

"That bastard Pudek is still recovering from his injuries due to the 'Thousand Faces Incident' a while ago, if you want to find him, I will arrange for someone to notify him immediately."

The short man said apologetically.

The hand behind his back was gesturing at Pudek again and again, signaling Pudek to disappear quickly.

"Director Steve, do you think I'm a fool?"

The Major turned his head to look at the chief, the oppression in his eyes that made Steve's forehead sweat.

"No, no."

"How dare I?"

"It's just that Pudecker is really still recuperating."

Steve waved his hand repeatedly, his face panicked.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Pudek who was not moving, but his heart was full of anxiety.

He didn't know what the military major had ordered, but he knew that it would never end well to be involved with these people.

Therefore, when he got out of the car, he directly pointed out the identity of the other party and asked his subordinates not to be impulsive.

It's just that to his surprise, the other party doesn't seem to care about the life or death of this 'Night Squad', but is interested in his right-hand man Pudek.

Could it be that Pudek inadvertently provoked someone from the military?

The thought popped into Steve's mind almost involuntarily.

Then, he was quickly recognized by Steve.

Because, he knows too well what Pudecker is like.

Stubborn, not to mention business, and always persevering.

Some things that should be perfunctory in the past have to be revealed.

Because of this, Pudeke, who has repeatedly made meritorious contributions, is still a sheriff.

Either way, Pudeck was his subordinate.

There was no reason for him to throw his men out.

"Your Excellency Major, please come with me, and I will take you to the sanatorium to find Pudek."

Steve said.

He was going to take the sudden major on a day trip to the city of Eikander.

Then, let Pudeck leave for a while.

As for not being able to find it?

Pudek is not paralyzed again, he has legs that can walk on his own, what is strange about leaving?

"Really?"

The tall major sneered, and pushed away Steve in front of him, and the short, elderly Steve suddenly fell to the ground.

The surrounding police officers raised their guns again and looked at the tall major with unkind faces.

Maybe Steve looks a little shameless, but he usually treats them very well, works hard to fight for everything they deserve, and stands in front of them without flinching at the critical moment, shielding them from the wind and rain, and now he is being pushed down, this pusher naturally aroused the anger of the police.

"It's fine!"

"I'm fine!"

"Put your guns down!"

Steve got up from the ground and shouted.

Although the federal military cannot directly intervene in the city of Eikende, Steve, who knows some inside information, definitely does not want his men to clash with the federal military.

Because, it will definitely be his subordinates who will suffer.

"Your Excellency, your strength is great, but Pudek ......"

"What are you looking for from me?"

With a shy face and a smile, Steve leaned over again, and wanted to continue talking, but was stopped by the middle-aged sheriff.

Suddenly, Steve's eyes widened and he glared at Pudeck.

The middle-aged sheriff smiled and patted Steve's shoulder to express his gratitude.

His character dictates that it is impossible to hide behind Steve.

In the same way, he also knows that he can't hide.

The other party looked prepared, and it was impossible to fool Steve's words.

"Follow me."

With that, the major returned to the car.

Pudeck gave Steve a reassuring gesture and followed.

Looking at the starting car, Steve's face changed again and again, and then, walking to the side of the police car, picked up the walkie-talkie, and tuned to a special channel.

People from the federal military, he can't afford to mess with.

But Pudek had to be saved.

So, you have to let someone who can afford to provoke the federal military come forward.

For example, the Lord Mayor from the House of Lords.

……

"I thought Steve's a corpse-eater, insatiable old bastard."

Inside the car, the major was the first to speak.

"When did the federal military care so much about the locality?"

"Still a major like you."

The middle-aged sheriff sneered.

Naturally, a major could not represent the military, let alone meddle in the city of Eikander, and Pudeke said this purely to ridicule the other party.

As for why?

Purely because of the other party's call for Steve.

Although they often refer to Steve privately as a bastard, an old bastard, or something like that, there's no malice in it.

Moreover, they are all their own people.

An outsider called Steve like this, which naturally aroused Pudek's displeasure.

Coupled with all the previous things, Pudek has already classified the other party into the category of hating people.

However, in the face of such ridicule, the major shook his head without mind.

"I don't care about the City of Eikander."

"I'm in contact with someone in the city of Akander."

"Who is this man?"

"If it were me, I'd be really flattered."

Pudek spread his hands out, looking expecting an answer.

"It's not you."

"But it has something to do with you."

“2567！”

The major said the name.

2567？

Pudek was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the direction of the car was Langton Ding Street.

"You're looking for 2567?"

"And then, you think he and I have a good relationship?"

"So, you pulled me up?"

"I really suspect that your intelligence department is eating Xiang, where did you get it from, we have a good relationship?"

Pudek laughed as he spoke.

The kind of tears that make you laugh.

"It's not a good relationship."

"Yes."

The Major said, suddenly raising his hand towards Pudek.

The space in the car was narrow, and Pudek had no room to dodge at all, and looking at the palm he caught, he swung his elbow and struck the opponent's ribs.

Bang!

The elbow blow that was enough to break a normal person's ribs didn't work at all for the major, but Pudek felt a sharp pain in his elbow, as if it had hit a steel plate, but more importantly, his neck was choked by the opponent's palm.

The other party pushed a little harder, and Pudek involuntarily opened his mouth.

Then, a capsule-like pill was thrown into Pudek's mouth.

"Ahem, ahem!"

Pudek coughed repeatedly, clenching his throat and trying to cough out the capsule, but to no avail.

"What's that?"

Pudeck glared at the other.

"Good stuff!"

"Something that is hard for ordinary people to obtain!"

"And you?"

"It's a lucky one, if it weren't for ......"

The other party's words continued, but Pudek couldn't hear it clearly.

A strong feeling of tiredness came over him like a tidal wave, and he struggled to open his eyes, but in the end, he closed them.

Looking at Pudeck, who had fallen asleep, the major sneered.

"Do you really think there will be no price to take out Lauresie?"

"Speed up."

The Major commanded.

Suddenly, the speed of the car more than doubled.

Just ten minutes later, the car was parked in front of 17 Langtonding Street.

Carrying the sleeping Pudek, the Major got out of the car, walked to the door, and knocked on the door.

Knock, knock.

After a clear knock on the door, an electronic sound was heard from the room.

"I'm sorry, the host is on an important business, I don't see the guests, please come back later."

“……”

A cold color flashed across the Major's face, and he raised his foot and kicked towards the gate.
