In the police station, Tang Tu kidnapped Chief Bailey and trapped Deputy Captain Blake and some police officers in the office and lobby and couldn't move.
When a fire broke out in the city's library, it spread from the main building to the annex, and firefighters and some police officers were dispatched, because according to eyewitness testimony at the scene, several suspected arsonists were present and are still at large.
At the gate of the city dock, hundreds of players are scuffling, various energy cards are activated, colorful lights flicker on the scene, and the dead bodies of players continue to disappear.
Most of these dead players, and those who died before, did not quit the game, and they continued to watch the progress of the mission from the perspective of God, they were anxious, they had a partial insight into the truth, but they were unable to communicate with the players in the field.
Norman and Ethan find Sean in the dock warehouse rented by Scott, who is locked in a sewer pipe where rain falls from the canopy and flows into the pipe, the water level has risen to his neck and continues to rise.
The problem arose, there was a manhole cover on the sewer pipe, and the lock on the manhole cover was heavy and heavy, and it was not something that could be broken by a shot or anything.
Ethan and Norman searched around for something, but the manhole cover still didn't move, and Sean looked at them from underwater, calling out "Father" weakly, and Ethan burst into tears again.
Norman patted Ethan on the shoulder, "There will be a way, I'll go drive, tie the lid to the car, and drag it with the car..."
Suddenly, a figure flashed into the warehouse, it was private investigator Scott, with a gun in his hand, about to sneak up on Ethan in the back. Norman turned around to see the scene, and he threw Scott down with a flying pounce, and the gun in his hand slipped out.
"Sure enough, it's you, you're the real origami killer!" Norman looked at Scott and pulled out his matching gun.
After all, Scott is a person who has been the deputy captain of the police station, and his reaction is very fast, don't look at his body is a little big, but he moves very quickly, taking advantage of this opportunity, Scott ran out with the cover of the object next to him.
"Stop, don't run!" Norman chased after him with a gun.
Only Ethan and Sean are left in the warehouse, and Sean is still locked up below, and Ethan is as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, not knowing what to do.
At this moment, the air next to Ethan seemed to distort, and a figure appeared, this was another assassin player, if Tang Tu was here, he would recognize this person as Krull, who had taught him assassin skills.
Like Tang Tu, Krull is also a player in the blue group, but he is used to acting alone, and after entering the mission scene, he does not go with most of them, but follows his own plan alone. When Zhao Yun and the others stayed at the gate of the dock, he didn't stay, and continued to follow Ethan into the warehouse incognito.
If Tang Tu was here, he would definitely find the problem with his carefulness, Krull's stealth skill has a very long time limit, far more than eight seconds, but Tang Tu is not there, and other players are not there, and no one has found this problem.
Krull patted Ethan on the shoulder to signal him to get out of the way, and used his unlocking skill on the lock of the manhole cover, and three seconds later, the lock opened.
Ethan almost crawled to the ground, excitedly reaching out to lift the manhole cover, but apparently he didn't have enough strength alone, and with a hard hand on Krull, the manhole cover was turned over by the two of them.
The water had already overflowed Sean's head, and Krull grabbed him and scooped him up.
Sean's breathing has stopped, Ethan gives Sean artificial respiration with red eyes, and Krull takes out a "healing" card and throws it on Sean, so Sean wakes up.
Ethan hugged Sean and cried loudly, and it wasn't until this moment that he was truly relieved.
Krull patted Ethan on the shoulder, "You are a good father and take good care of the children. Ethan glanced at him gratefully, and a flash of white light flashed as Krull had an extra energy card in his hand.
Ethan's Thanks, a physical four-star energy card "Ethan's Gratitude", which grants the player eight seconds of invincibility when used on himself.
Footsteps were heard, Krull became invisible again, and Scott and Norman ran one after the other, and they circled outside and returned to the warehouse.
Ethan saw Scott appear, and immediately picked up Sean and wanted to run to the side, wanting to hide behind the shelf next to him, but he was still a step slow, Scott grabbed him, and Ethan only had time to push Sean away, Norman immediately pushed Sean behind the shelf and stood in front.
"Scott, you're done, let Ethan go, I can plead for you in front of the prosecutor without sentencing you to death." Norman seduces Scott.
Scott pouted, "No death penalty?" I've killed eight children, and even if you help me intercede, the prosecutor won't agree, and even if the prosecutor agrees, the public won't agree... I'm a former police officer, I know that. β
Norman took a breath, "You remember being a police officer, why would you do that?" Hurting innocent children who are powerless to resist, and now taking hostages, making mistakes again and again, when will you be wrong before you wake up? You've ruined your reputation for the rest of your life, and that's what you're after? Spurned by the masses? β
Scott suddenly showed a weird smile, "What's wrong with me?" I just don't want to die, I don't want to die like John did, I want a father to save me... You see, Ethan is a good father, the ninth child, the ninth father, and finally found one that is about to succeed, does that mean that I am also saved? β
Ethan was strangled by Scott and coughed a few times, "What do you want me to do?" I promise you not to hurt Sean again, he's just a kid, he doesn't understand anything, and he will come at me for anything. β
"Hehehe, you're a good father," Scott smiled at Ethan, and suddenly the expression on his face turned to crying again, "but you still can't save me, no one can save me... John is dead, Daddy won't save him, I'm going to die too, no one wants to save me...
But I'm not reconciled, where is God, why didn't he open his eyes and see, John was a good brother, but he died, I was dozens of good policemen, conscientious, and now I'm going to die, why do good people have to die... Yes, good people deserve to die, so you deserve to die too..."
The more Scott spoke, the more excited he became, and Norman shouted, "Scott, don't get excited, if you have something to say, don't hurt Ethan..."
But Scott no longer seemed to hear Norman, he was immersed in his own world, his breathing getting heavier and heavier, and his hand holding the gun was shaking.
Norman's heart was in his throat, and he had a hunch that Scott was going to shoot, but he was not in a good position to find a suitable opportunity to shoot.
β... All damn it... All damn it... Death to all..."Scott was so excited that he seemed to pull the trigger in the next second, and then the gun went off, but Ethan didn't have a head, and Scott hung his arms weakly.
Before he died, Scott turned to look behind him, where there was a woman standing not far away, it was Loren. Winter, with a gun in her hand, the muzzle of which is always aimed at Scott.
"You killed my sonβ" was the last thing Scott heard Loren say.
