Chapter Twenty-Five: The Female Captain

"Iron Gate~Iron Window~Iron Fence~"

Lorenzo sat in the corner humming a strange song, his eyes looking out of the bars, the sky outside gloomy as the sun set.

A few strong men huddled in the corner, their heads in the corners, as if they were autistic...... Indeed, anyone who is punched and kicked by Lorenzo is prone to self-sufficiency.

About half an hour ago, Lorenzo had been taken back to the detention cell in Suaran Hall by Eve, which was in a great position, and from the workstation it was just in time, several familiar comrades of the police raised their heads to look at Lorenzo from time to time, Lorenzo knew that they had tried their best to hold back their laughter, but a few of them still laughed out loud.

Lorenzo suddenly felt like an animal in a zoo, feeling very unhappy, and after entering the detention room, several strong men who arrived first looked at Lorenzo with disgust, and a few even made provocative remarks.

Admittedly, as soon as he crawled out of the sewer, Lorenzo did smell bad, and he didn't say anything, just nestled in the corner.

The suspect was not caught, and was hit by a carriage several meters away, and was tortured back by Eve, and was still coldly looked down upon by these people.

The more Lorenzo thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and then he looked at the strong men on the side.

"What do you think I'm doing?" asked Lorenzo.

The strong men were stunned, "What's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong?" Lorenzo shook his hands, "and you dare to fight back?"

And then there's the current situation, where Lorenzo became the boss of the detention cell in a very short time.

He wasn't worried about the current situation, anyway, there were people above Lorenzo's head, and the detention or something would be a formality, but now there was a place to rest, and the dull pain in his body was much better, and Lorenzo began to think about the pursuit just now.

Obviously, this group of stowaways from Fei Lengcui seems to be plotting something, after all, serious people don't go to the ghost place of the rat's nest to ask for information, plus the carriage when he fled, they seem to have a response in the old Dunling, obviously not everyone can use the carriage, this respondent, also has a little capital.

So the question is, why did they smuggle in, and did Lorenzo think that with their energy, they should be able to forge a proper identity to reach Old Dunling, or did they not want to be known?

Lorenzo's mind flashed through a secret department, the Purge.

The purification mechanism, the behemoth entrenched in the shadow of the old Dunling, in the case of the visit of the mission and the increased vigilance, presumably the purification mechanism will not relax, they do not want to attract the attention of the purification mechanism.

If this speculation is true, then things are interesting, according to Arthur's words to himself, the church is secretly trying to exchange technology with the purification mechanism, this time the mission from Fei Leng Cui must be doing something, but now another group of stowaways has arrived.

At the risk of the exchange failing, it is also necessary to secretly send forces...... There seems to be only one one who can tempt them to do this.

"The Book of Revelation ......"

Lorenzo whispered, and after finding this key point, the whole event took shape in his mind.

The Demon Hunters have been rebuilt, and the Stagnant Sanctuary has been online again, and the eerie Stagnant Sanctuary can monitor the Demon Hunters, perhaps discovered by them during their own fight with Lawrence, so they have also determined the location of the Apocalypse.

The whole thing suddenly became clear, but Lorenzo was not happy.

Worried, the iron door of the detention cell was opened, and the officer said to Lorenzo.

"Come out and make a note. ”

Lorenzo's face darkened, but he still followed him honestly, he couldn't kill here, although he had a privilege, but that privilege was not used here.

Soon, Lorenzo was sent to a small room, with only two chairs and a table, and the familiar girl was sitting across the table, holding a pen and a notebook in a serious manner.

"Good...... Long time no see!"

In the entire small room, only him and Eve were left, and seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Lorenzo took the lead in speaking.

"Well, long time no see. ”

Eve's reaction was cold and expected.

"I say, are you a personal vendetta? I admit that my decision at the time was a little bad, but these are all explainable......

With thoughts racing through his mind, Lorenzo quickly defended himself, the detective couldn't have been more easy to fool a little girl.

But Eve had a calm face, as if she hadn't heard Lorenzo speak at all, and when Lorenzo finished speaking, she said slowly.

"Finished?"

Lorenzo nodded, and Eve smiled disdainfully.

"You think I'm communiquΓ©ing a personal vendetta?"

"Isn't it?" asked Lorenzo rhetorically.

Eve restrained herself, tied herself to the horse with a rope, and rode jubilantly in front of her, while Lorenzo trotted behind with her hands raised...... This was a common sight hundreds of years ago, when knights dragged captives with ropes after a victory in a war.

Eve shook her head.

"Lorenzo, I'm not a child, I'm an adult, I'm rational. Eve said, "I'm saving you...... At least to break the siege, and while those mounted police are not a threat to you, in that case, you'll only create more chaos and cause more trouble. ”

Lorenzo was stunned, he didn't expect these reasons to be included.

"Now that the old Dunling has been under martial law, I have been patrolling the streets, what do you say? According to the situation at that time, you may cause a street fight, and I have just made a big thing small. ”

According to Eve's logic, it seems that this is really the case, with Lorenzo's thoughts at the time, he may knock over the mounted police who are blocking the road with one punch.

"And I have to thank you?"

"Thank you, I'm a little curious about what you're doing. Eve said with a frown, the smell of Lorenzo in this confined space was intoxicating, "Are you catching rats in the sewers?"

"Don't say it, it's really related to rats. Hearing this, Lorenzo replied, "It's just a somewhat complicated case." ”

Eve nodded, not continuing to ask anything.

Everything calmed down again, and Lorenzo was very uncomfortable, and he asked as he thought about what he could say.

"Ya...... Duke Phoenix has agreed to make you a police detective?"

Lorenzo thought that after that incident, Arthur would send Eve away far away, but he didn't expect Arthur to give up these ideas directly and let Eve chase her dreams.

"Almost. ”

Eve replied that no one knew how she had persuaded Arthur.

She didn't seem to want to talk to Lorenzo at all, and the topic she had managed to find was gone, and Lorenzo couldn't stand it anymore.

"I'm sorry. ”

"What?"

Eve looked at him curiously, not understanding what Lorenzo's sudden sorry meant.

"I'm sorry to sacrifice you at the time. "Instead of hiding it, it's better to talk about everything.

"Nothing to be sorry about, I can understand. Eve replied very seriously. "And I've learned a few things. ”

"What's the matter. ”

"Don't expect too much from others," says Eve, "and it's not right to impose your own desires on others." ”

"It makes me feel like a jerk. ”

"Aren't you?" Eve continued.

"Lorenzo, you're a good liar, and sometimes I forget your nasty nature because of your performances, but this time I've been on my toes. ”

Eve said and flashed the gun in her hand, "Don't worry too much, everyone is an adult, so there's no need to be so pretentious." ”

She said and pushed the door open.

"You can go. ”

"Where's the transcript?" asked Lorenzo.

"Like you said, they're all acquaintances, just a formality. Eve said.

This strange attitude made Lorenzo feel a little strange, although he said that he didn't care, but Lorenzo could feel her coldness, just like Prey said, trust is a very precious thing, and the invisible wall has been cut off between the two.

It's hard to deceive the little girl.

Lorenzo sighed inwardly, but walked out honestly.

Sure enough, with human nature, there will be troubles, Lorenzo didn't care about other people's emotions before, in his opinion, the rest of them are just tools to help him hunt demons, but now it's different, the iron and stone melt into the heart of flesh and blood, sometimes this ghost guilt, disgusting.

"You...... Can you be happier!" Lorenzo said suddenly.

Hearing Lorenzo's words, Eve didn't get angry but laughed, "I said Lorenzo, there should be some limit to being shameless, right?"

"You almost killed me the last time we met, and I didn't detain you for a few days, it's enough to restrain you!"

Hearing this, the little girl did have a lot of sense, otherwise according to Lorenzo's previous impression of her, she should have been ready to draw her gun and fire by now.

But she didn't do those unreasonable things, and even went through a back door for Lorenzo within her duties.

"Is this love and hate?" Lorenzo continued to talk nonsense, he liked to use this shameless way to relieve embarrassment, it felt like making a very serious matter less serious.

Eve has apparently seen through Lorenzo's tricks, as this guy always does.

"So get out of here! Lorenzo!"

Eve said, kicking Lorenzo out of the door of Suaran Hall.

Lorenzo stood alone in the streets, it was approaching night, and the street lights were on, as if to say goodbye to the day.

Glancing back at the Suaran Hall, fortunately, things didn't get big, otherwise it wasn't Lorenzo who was unlucky, but Pree, after all, according to the report, he went out with Lorenzo.

Pres needed the job to make ends meet, and Lorenzo didn't, he just needed something to have some fun and fill the empty heart he had when he didn't have demons to kill.

Standing in the street and muttering for a while, Lorenzo had a new idea, and then walked towards the lower town.

After Lorenzo left, Eve also walked out of the Suaran Hall, but this time she took off her police uniform and changed into a wide trench coat, she looked like it was time to go home from work, but she went down the same path as Lorenzo, as if the two were aiming for the same place.

What an accident, Eve never thought she would meet Loren today...... At least not in this way.

The girl's gaze was a little indifferent, although she said that she was reasonable, she still wanted to give Lorenzo a shot, after all, the witcher couldn't die, and it was good to take a shot to relieve her anger.

In Lawrence's raid, Eve's world shattered into countless pieces, she had faced demons, she had looked directly at the terrifying thing, but Eve had the power to resist even then, but when facing Lawrence, it was a sense of powerless despair.

In the darkness of the sea, no one can save her, and the last hope can only fall on Lorenzo, but at that time, the witcher also seemed to be unable to protect himself, but ...... But Eve still has some expectations, maybe Lorenzo will solve Lawrence by shouting about love and peace?

But the miracle did not appear, Lorenzo did not want to save her, and even wanted to take her to hell with him.

There was no sense of hopelessness at that time, and Eve suddenly felt very lost.

You think you're brothers who have died, jumped over the car together, and teamed up to slash demons, but this dog thing sold you backhanded.

Eve also thought back to the scene afterwards, she didn't need to blame Lorenzo for anything, the witchers also fought to eradicate demons, compared to this great ideal, she was indeed slightly pitiful.

But then someone she couldn't have imagined appeared, and Arthur took the fatal blow.

It was a difficult decision, Lorenzo indifferently killed everything for the sake of the great ideal, while Arthur, who had always held on, turned his back on everything and chose to save Eve.

It was also from then on that the world that Arthur had been hiding was officially revealed in front of Eve's eyes, and he could no longer hide it.

But this time the conversation between father and daughter was no longer as intense as before, and it was then that Eve suddenly understood why Arthur had been trying to send her away, because he was so close to the dark world.

At the end of the conversation, both parties make a compromise, and Arthur allows Eve to pursue her dream of becoming a police detective, and everything is at the same time
