Volume 4: Compromise and Struggle Chapter 36: Talking Out the Window

The screams reached their ears, but they didn't belong to either Ed or Pierce.

Ed's performance is not bad. He was like a three-toed sloth trapped in a watermelon peel trap, wheezing violently, as bad as an asthma attack, like a prostitute staring at a stripper in front of him dancing in a cage with a steel pipe in the middle, his face flushed with blood, and the blood vessels in his forehead bulging, looking like an earthworm burrowing under his skin.

Pierce was much more irritable. He was in much better shape than Ed, so he was struggling all the time, and his face was full of anger and ruin. Ed looked at him from the sidelines like he was looking at a big fool. Isn't this guy still unfigured out what kind of situation he is in now, is he a little delirious? What kind of situation did he think he would find himself in if he struggled and succeeded?

They were now being grabbed by the shin by the tithes and dumped out of the buildingβ€”if they had fallen, it would have been nothing like when they had been in the hospital. When the corpse team came to deal with the scene, in addition to shovels and buckets, there had to be a water truck with them. The kind with a high-pressure water pump.

The one who screamed was Susan. She screamed out to Shilo the moment she cleared the room with a thunderbolt of the last two things that were still standing at the scene.

"Sister, wait a minute!" She looked very anxious, her face and eyes full of worry and worry, "One of those two people is ......"

"Don't speak, Susan." The tithing voice calmly interrupted Susan dryly, and turned to look at the girl, "Just stand there...... Leave everything to me and I'll take care of the rest. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yes, sister. ”

Susan looked at the familiar silver-black eyes of Shilo, her mouth finally closed, and she took a small step back, holding the pistol that had been fired once before, and lowered her head. Her nervousness seemed to have calmed down a little, and the return of the tithes wiped out all possible troubles.

It's okay, there's nothing left, my sister is back.

Seeing that Tia turned her head back, Susan put away the pistol in her hand. Then she saw at her feet, a buttonman soldier under Pierce, who had been knocked unconscious by Eddard. He still looked like he was still unconscious.

It's been so long, and it's been so much that these people haven't woken up yet...... Susan kept her head down, looked at the person at her feet, and then kicked the other person's head seemingly casually.

"Detective," Tilo's upper body leaned out of the window, looking at the two men below, his eyes focused on Ed's, "I said I didn't want to see you again. ”

The wind howled and ruffled the tithe's hair, making her look even more oppressive. This is redundant, in Ed's eyes, even if she has a shaved head, she is more terrifying than the demons of hell. The three-headed dog of hell in front of her is a hot dog with too much spicy hot plate.

At a height of dozens of meters, she carried two adults weighing more than one hundred and thirty pounds in one hand, and she couldn't even feel the slightest effort. All she could see was steel and blades on her face, and the two narrow eyes under the thick curtain almost pierced Eddard's face.

It's a very, very scary thing. You know, Ed's face is very thick.

"I'm glad to see you again, doctor." Ed grinned reluctantly, exhausted and now only had his tongue as strong as ever.

Maybe it was because of Ed's infection, or maybe it was just a relief after the initial impact, and Pierce next to him stopped struggling at this time. He glanced at Ed next to him, and then struggled to "look up" at Shiro.

"Incredible...... he said with a slight sigh on his face, with that slightly distorted smile on his face, "Rabid Dog Titheβ€”we're finally meeting." ”

"Bang!"

Without any politeness, Tilo grabbed Pierce's leg and slammed his body on the wall outside the building, almost knocking Pierce's head. Pierce exhaled with a headache.

"If you talk any more, you'll die." After a no-nonsense warning, Shijlo turned his gaze back to Ed, "As for you- you surprise me, detective. Give me a reason to keep you alive. ”

"I have only one reason," Ed said with his head down his feet, straining his neck to look at Shilo, grinning tiredly, "you didn't intend to kill me." I can't be 100% sure why, I can only have a few vague guesses. But you're not going to kill me. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Let's save it. Maybe you didn't notice, but I'm tired of it nowβ€”so I'm too lazy to mess around with you. If you want to throw me down, let go, and if you want to throw me to my death, do so. Push harder, be quicker, don't just hold your head and howl like this guy. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"By the way, there's one more thing." Ed suddenly seemed to remember something, and glanced at the part of Shilo's neck, "Nice decoration." It's for you. You look so beautiful now. ”

He was clearly talking about a bandage around his neck with a tithe. That part of the stuff is quite obvious, especially for Ed, which has a different meaning. He had just seen Tilo appear in the house, and while he and Pierce were still in the house, he noticed something that was somewhat out of place, but inexplicably matched with Tire's collar. He thought Pierce should be like him.

His teasing was a mistake, and tithes were slightly different from the dog in every way. Luckily, though, he had nothing more to fear now. It couldn't be worse.

Tilo looked at Ed in silence for a moment, then looked away.

"We'll talk about that later, detective." She said, then looked at Pierce, "A.R.X's hawk dog...... How did you find here? ”

"Do you need me to answer this question seriously?" Pierce hung upside down and spread his hands, looking innocent, "Of course I can tell you - someone from the organization told me about this place." I am only responsible for carrying out orders. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Too bad. Any other last words? ”

"There's one - if you kill me, Rabies, you'll be declaring war on A.R.X."

"A.R.X has declared war on me." Shi Yiluo's eyes were indifferent, "Otherwise, why do you think you are in front of me?" ”

Pierce sneered. "Trust me, dear. If A.R.X does declare war on you, I will be far from the only one who will appear in front of you. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Listen to me. You and that kid are now on the A.R.X list, and you should understand what that means. So if you want, I can give you a chance right now – we can sit down and have a good talk about how to resolve this matter. What do you think? ”

"Negotiations?" For the first time, Tilo looked at Pierce with a surprised look, "Is this what A.R.X meant, or is it just your impromptu proposal?" ”

"Limited to this mission, limited to you as the object - I can represent A.R.X." Pierce was a little uncomfortable when he said this, he was doing something that didn't match his cynical personality at all, "What do you think, Miss Tithe?" His name for tithes became formal.

Instead of answering immediately, Shilo looked at Pierce in silence, and finally suddenly the corners of his mouth were raised. She gave a sneer with a hint of hideousness.

"How?" There was a hint of cold ferocity in her eyes, "For the two sides in an unequal position, there is no such thing as negotiation at all. A.R.X wants not to negotiate, but to judge. Am I right, dear Your Excellency the 'Diplomatic Envoy'? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"I'll let you go back," Tiji continued, "and send me a message back to A.R.Xβ€”if you want to play, I'll play with you." But let me be clear up front, you're the first A.R.X enforcer I've put back alive, and the last. I will never show any mercy next time. Do you understand? ”

"I at least heard it all. And I've written it all down. ”

"That's enough." "It's a pity that the talks broke down. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Don't jump to conclusions, miss."

The sudden sound behind him made Shilo's eyes freeze suddenly, and he turned his head sharply, only to see a pistol pressed against Susan's head from the side, an arm locked around her neck from behind.

The gun was Susan's gun, the one that Tithe gave Susan to defend herself. The man was one of the four buttonmen who had been knocked unconscious by Eddard earlier, the one lying at Susan's feet. It seems that he has either been kicked awake by Susan, or he has already woken up and been waiting for an opportunity. Anyway, he woke up, and he did a very, very terrible thing at a very, very fatal moment.

Tithro looked at the buttonman, then turned his gaze to Susan. The girl's face was a little pale, and her body trembled a little, as if she couldn't make any sound because of nervousness and fright.

She'd never been at gunpoint in the head like she was now, especially with her own gun. Tia had warned her of the dangerous lethality of that weapon.

"Now," the buttonman stared at the tithing without blinking, "pull my boss up from the window...... Please, please be slow, be gentle, and don't think about throwing it at me. I'm not familiar with this gun, and it's easy to misfire. ”
