CHAPTER XXIX

"Sorry to disturb your rest." Su Yuan said insincerely.

"You don't look used to knocking out opponents." Mary said slowly, with an oxygen tube still plugged into her nose, so she naturally wouldn't be very comfortable talking.

"Pretty much the same, I'm used to a headshot. However, considering that there are many patients like you in the hospital, I decided not to shoot. ”

"Strange, you're not an ordinary person, but you're not Green either. What are you? I've never met a creature like you. ”

"Uh...... I don't think it's appropriate to describe me as biological. I'm a human being, mostly am. However, I have some abilities that ordinary people don't have, and you can be a special kind of Green when I am a special kind of green. I can see the Grimm creatures as well. ”

"Did Nick get you here?"

"Sort of, two hundred dollars a day. But if you have to deal with three killers with guns a day, two hundred dollars is not enough. I'll make sure he adds money when I go back. ”

"Hehe, I still have some savings to help him pay you. But not to protect me. It's for him. ”

"Nick? He's good, both as a cop and as Green. I don't feel like he needs anyone else's protection. After all, his job is to protect others. ”

"No, you and I know that. He was still a rookie as Green. At least nowhere near as skilled as you. You seem to be used to killing. But he also needs a long period of adaptation. I could feel that things had changed. The dark forces that have been suppressed by Grimm are beginning to rise. But alas, I can't find out the truth anymore.

I needed someone to help me watch him and help Nick make a successful transition to a qualified Green. He may not have time to adapt little by little, and crises will follow. Protect him and let him fulfill his family's mission. ”

"I thought you were going to make him give up all this and live the life of an ordinary person? That's how it is played in movies. ”

"I tried that before, and I stayed away from him. Trying to keep it all away from him as well. But like you said, that's just a part of the movie. He's already Grimm, and whether he wants it or not, the dark world has begun to circulate his name. He has to bear it all, it's his destiny. The more you escape, the heavier the backlash of fate will be. Young man, help him and help me......"

Mary said when she suddenly coughed violently. She spat some black bruises on the sheets. Su Yuan was able to sense her current situation. Just like the words she had just confessed, she was indeed going to die.

Her heartbeat, her breathing, the wriggling of her internal organs, was already extremely weak. The flow of blood has become weak. Her entire bodily function had come to an end.

"Aunt Mary......" Nick shouted outside. Between Su Yuan, who originally planned to follow Nick to intervene in the plot. So at this time, I no longer hesitated and agreed directly.

"I promise you." In the original work, Su Yuan admired this old Green very much. What's more, following the protagonist to intervene in the plot was also his original plan, and it was okay to agree.

"Thanks, I have a key in my cane. It is the key to the rented warehouse. What's in it is what I pay you. Nick has a heavy fate, help him. ”

Su Yuan took the key. By this time, Nick had already rushed in. The corpse on the ground visibly startled him. But seeing that Aunt Mary was fine, he breathed another sigh of relief.

Su Yuan got up and gave him the time.

"There is another one on the ground who has passed out and will not wake up for a short time. Go and stay with her, she's been waiting for you. ”

Su Yuan walked out of the room after speaking, and outside the door was Nick's partner Hank.

"I thought you were off today."

"That's how it was intended. But the thought of so many cases and all the limelight given to Nick makes me mentally unbalanced. So run out and fight. ”

"Huh. You've come to the right place. Trust me, together you will become a new star on alert. ”

"I have no doubt about that. But there are some things I need your help with. I need to know about that world, and the more the better. I don't want the next time I'll just be blinded by it. ”

"You can talk to Nick about that, his family legacy will definitely blow your mind."

"Who the hell are you?" Hank asked suddenly.

"I'm Nick's informant, aren't I?"

"Hehe......" Hank chuckled and didn't press on. In the original book, it can be seen that several people around Nick are not the kind of pedantic people. After Nick's mother died, they even teamed up to take the killer to a secluded place for Nick to take revenge with his own hands.

Hank now understands that he has entered an unknown world, and the best way to do that is to be lewd and not to speak casually.

Nick's cries could be heard in the room. Su Yuan knew it, but the two of them still ran in. By this time Mary was no longer breathing. She should have died a long time ago, but she insisted on it with her will, just to make a final trust to Nick.

Su Yuan and Hank silently exited the ward, and Nick's suppressed cry echoed throughout the corridor. He lost his parents when he was a child, and Aunt Mary raised him. Despite being adults, they see each other very rarely. But the other party is still a mother-like role in his heart.

Few people can afford to lose their mother twice, and now Nick just feels like he's going crazy. And then the unconscious criminal on the ground woke up. But he was greeted by Nick's shoe prints.

At this point, the Portland Police Department has a somewhat strange guest. Dressed in a black trench coat, he carries a long box in his hand. While looking around, I walked into the police station.

An Asian patrol officer responded.

"Uh...... Who are you looking for? ”

"I'm looking for Nick. Officer Burkhard. One of the cases he was in charge of was related to a relative of mine. It was Horda, whom he killed. I would like to be able to get some information from him. ”

"Well, that's not a coincidence. He's no longer here, so why don't you leave a phone number and I'll let you know when he comes back. ”

"Absolutely."
