Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Power of Green
CHAPTER XXXIX
The ugly giant, as the name suggests, the ugly giant. This is a subspecies of trolls. Not as powerful as trolls, but still a powerful race among Grimm creatures. This creature, though not fully inherited the power of the trolls. But the bad character of the troll is all inherited. To put it simply, this is a naturally bad creature.
The vast majority of ugly giants are violent criminals such as gangsters, killers, and robbers. Like Monroe said, the world would definitely be a better place without them.
In the living room, Su Yuan yawned and said.
"So, an otter saw an ugly giant murder. He called the police, but regretted not daring to come forward to testify? ”
"Pretty much. That neighborhood is a colony of otters. They were so afraid of the ugly giant that no one dared to tell the whereabouts of the child, let alone come forward to testify. ”
"That's a ...... Nick, you still don't realize who you are. I'll give you a quick hint, go back now, and ask the otters if they're afraid of the ugly giant, or if they're afraid of Grimm. Trust me, they'll give you a satisfactory answer.
Also, I know the otters. They're useful, but we'll talk about it when you're done. Now, I'm going to sleep. Do you have a guest room at home? ”
Seeing that Su Yuan staggered and went to sleep as if he was in his own home. Nick turned to look at Juliet, only to see Juliet walking towards another bedroom.
"I'm going to rest Nick too. Everything last night hit me too much, don't bother me, I'm going to get some rest. ”
Looking back at Monroe, he saw that the other party had simply collapsed on the sofa.
Nick: "......" The reaction of the crowd made him feel a little sleepy. However, thinking that the case needed to be closed as soon as possible, he still pulled himself together and called Hank.
"Hi Hank. I have some new ideas about last night's case. ”
…………………
Seventh Avenue is a special neighborhood. It's home to the otter clan of Portland. The otters are the weakest of the Grimm biota. They were equivalent to the first rat man Su Yuan had encountered before. The kind whose basic stats are weaker than humans. The vast majority can't even beat an ordinary person.
And because of this, they are very united. Gather together to live together, and at the same time adopt a system similar to a group vote, and decide some major matters of the community.
And this time, the kid, named Arnold, witnesses the murder of the ugly giant Sal. They voted on the matter. Although some young people think that this is the opportunity to report the ugly giant Thrall. Report the hatred of being oppressed for so many years.
But most otters still believe that they shouldn't get involved. Because Thrall has other brothers, he alone can't free the tribe from the exploitation of the ugly giants. They will even be greeted with their crazy revenge.
And just as they were deciding on the matter, someone outside the door made an announcement.
"The two cops are here again. The two from last night. ”
"Invite them in." An elderly otter said.
Nick and Hank were startled when they walked into the otter room. Because there were hundreds of people in the conference room.
"Looks like you're discussing something?" Nick asked.
"Uh...... Just some private matters. ”
"Well, I'm here to make a suggestion to you. I know you hid Arnold. I need him to come out and testify. Since there are so many of you again, you might as well discuss it. ”
"I'm sorry officer, we don't know what you're talking about. We don't know where the kid went. Really, there's not much we can do about this case. An old man of the otter clan didn't hesitate to reject Nick, after all, they had already made a decision.
Seeing this, Nick knew they had made a decision. So he took a step forward and approached the nearest short, middle-aged otter and said.
"I know what you're afraid of. I know Thrall is an ugly giant. The ugly giants are the nemesis of the otter clan, and you've been paying him protection money for a long time, right? ”
"What are you talking about? I don't understand. "The diminutive otter is named Bard. At this time, he only felt that the police in front of him exuded an aura that was more terrifying than that of the ugly giant. Under the nervousness, he naturally transformed. Then I saw a pair of eyes that were as black as ink, like an abyss.
It was a legend that was more terrifying than the ugly giant among all the Grimm groups. That's a characteristic of Green.
Nick looked at the other party's frightened face, unhurriedly took out his police badge from his arms, and then handed it to Hank beside him.
"Since you're not going to tell the truth to the police, then I'll ask again, in another capacity. I just don't know, are you more afraid of the ugly giant, or are you more afraid of Green? ”
Rumble...... The entire conference hall exploded in an instant. After countless otters transformed, they saw Nick's true body. Then there was a rush of scramble. A large number of otters involuntarily retreated, trying to get away from Nick. But the hall was already crowded with people, and there was no way to retreat. The only doorway was behind the Green.
"Oh God. He's a ...... Green."
"Run, he'll kill us all."
"Help, mom help me......" The whole hall was in chaos, and Nick and Hank on the side were stunned. They knew that Nick Green's identity had a strong deterrent effect on Grimm's creatures. But the Su Yuan, Monroe, and the bee monsters not long ago, and even the man-bears, who had seen before, did not have such exaggerated performances.
"That's enough, shut it all up."
Nick couldn't take it anymore and yelled. The entire conference room fell silent in an instant. All the otters looked at him in horror, as if Nick was going to kill them in the next second.
"Now, who can tell me where Arnold is?"
The conference room was silent. None of the hundreds of otters dared to speak. But then, a young voice rang out.
"I'm here."
Nick and Hank followed the voice. I saw a somewhat thin young man standing up in the crowd.
"I'm Arnold, and I've seen the ugly giant Thrall push a man in black into a concrete pool. I can testify, but I want you to promise me one condition. ”
"I can't promise you, kid. But you can talk about it. ”
"Are you really Greene? The legendary kind of Grimm who specializes in hunting us? ”
"I'm Green, yes. But I'm not like the legend. I'm not going to hunt you just yet. ”
"And will you hunt down the ugly giant Thrall?"
"I promise that he will be punished by the law. Because I'm also a police officer. ”
"But there are other ugly giants. Sal also has three brothers, if I reported him. Then his brother will definitely take revenge on us like crazy. Can you protect my uncle, my family? "The uncle he was talking about was a short otter named Bud, who was terrorized by Nick.
"I ......" Nick, as a police officer, can naturally make this kind of decision. But seeing the hundreds of pairs of nervous, fearful, but expectant eyes around him, Nick suddenly changed his words.
"I promise you that I will never let the revenge of the ugly giant hurt any of you, in the name of a Grimm."
