Chapter 20: Slander, Persistence!

Soon after, Konstantin packed his belongings, and it just so happened that Chas had come over.

"John!" Chas put his phone back in his trouser pocket, and he had just asked Rich, who was a professor at Emory University, to help him find out, "The owner of a mine near the town of Ledwick was killed by fire while taking a shower at home!"

"Hah!" Konstantin waved his hand casually: "What kind of accident can make someone burn to death in the bath, Chas, it seems that we have found our target, let's go!"

"Wait!I'm afraid you're going to have to go by yourself this time!" Chas shook his head with his back to Konstantin.

Constantine was surprised and asked, "Why, are you covered in wounds like Dante?"

"Have you forgotten, Pennsylvania, Banshee on the freight train!" Chas said depressedly, "The hunt warrant has been in effect, and I can't take the train to Pennsylvania!"

"You have a good memory!"

Chas's words reminded Konstantin of the past, and he understood Chas.

So, Konstantin carried his suitcase and walked alone to the stairs, and when he was about to go out, he suddenly remembered something, and he turned around and showed his face that was hidden by shadows.

"Dante, I have a report of your death in my room, there are a lot of suspicious points in it, I want you to take a look, besides, Chas, you know Dante is like an old antique, so teach him something new!"

After Konstantin finished speaking, he stepped on the shadows and left the house of everything.

Riding his enchanted old broken car, he slowly came to the train station, and Constantine, with a sloppy image, carried a broken and dirty enchanted old suitcase, and met the disdainful gazes of countless passers-by, and walked to the ticket office by himself.

"Give me a ticket to Pennsylvania. ”

Konstantin said as he pulled the money out of his pocket.

"Here's your ticket!" the conductor said, handing the ticket to Konstantin.

By the time Konstantin heard the conductor's voice, he understood what was happening.

"Manny!"

Konstantin looked at the black man in front of him, and what caught the eye was the black man's golden pupils.

Time seems to stop all four weeks, and every time an angel appears, time always passes very slowly, because you are either just dead or dying, and Konstantin clearly belongs to the latter.

"Constantine!" Manny said solemnly, "You hid Dante's news from Liv, and you didn't tell her that you retrieved Dante's body!"

"Manny, I remember that there is still a small gap between guarding and surveillance, are you monitoring my life now!"

Konstantin glared at Manny, who was very upset, very upset.

Manny shook his head, in his point of view, he shouldn't be at odds with Konstantin.

"John, you can't deny it, you scared her away!"

"I know!" Konstantin grinned evilly, "I'm John Konstantin, and I'm used to being alone!"

Constantine's indifferent expression made Manny angry, and Manny propped his hands on the ticket window, leaned closer to Constantine, and he said a word harshly.

"Don't you understand, Liv's abilities are valuable......"

"Her life is the same!" Konstantin angrily interrupted Manny.

The two were momentarily locked in a stalemate, and after a moment, Konstantin spoke to break the deadlock.

"Manny, what we are about to face is dangerous, and besides, Liv's abilities are only valuable, she is not a necessity, I gave Liv a good choice, which I did not give to Astra!"

"You just said about us!" Manny smiled, he was satisfied with Constantine's attitude, "Why, did you decide to help us!"

Konstantin forced a smile.

"Isn't that right in your hands!"

As soon as the words fell, Manny laughed even louder.

Konstantin took out a cigarette and lit it silently.

"You still call me a liar, now what do you have to say?"

Konstantin spat the smoke into Manny's face, smiled reluctantly, put the money he had intended to pay the bill back into his pocket, and took his ticket with his hand.

"Help me pay the bills!" Konstantin shouted from afar, "You bastards will owe me a lot in the future, fuck you!"

Manny didn't reply, he just looked at Konstantin quietly, no one could see the angel's heart through the golden pupils.

While Constantine was having a not-so-friendly exchange with the angel, Dante was reading the incident report with Chas in the House of Everything.

The incident report, as the name suggests, is the mad cop murder that happened at 8 o'clock last night on Edgewood Avenue in a restaurant in Flavored Mexico, and it was also the first incident that caused Dante to go to the land of death after escaping from eternal purgatory.

"Chas, the word police appears very often here, can you tell me what kind of sect or organization it is?"

Dante pointed to the word police on the report and asked Chas in a low voice, why is it quiet?

A long time ago, Dante was still a child, he had never seen his father since he was a child, his mother also died in childbirth when she gave birth to him, and Dante, who grew up in the Temple of War, had only a teacher who was an old Templar Knight in his seventies!

As an alcoholic, deaf, warrior-like teacher, Dante was beaten many times for no reason, and sometimes, even if Dante just asked a question, he would be kicked by the teacher twice.

This made Dante develop the habit of asking questions in a whisper, but Dante never hated his first teacher, Dante's surname and race were Naphilim, the object of countless demons' pursuit, and the creatures of all races in the Pantheon knew that any life that brought Naphilim's soul to the Demon of All Demons would be generously rewarded by the Demon of All Demons.

When Dante was seven years old, he once 'ran away from home' with the little girl who admired him the most in the Temple of the God of War, but as soon as they walked out of the temple shrouded in the glory of the God of War through the side door, a demigod demon lord took action to cover a small piece of the sky and threw a little demon under his command on Dante, if it weren't for Dante awakening the power of Nephilim, if it weren't for the god of all gods' rule that higher-ranking creatures can't shoot at lower-ranking creatures, then Dante would have died long ago.

Why can Dante awaken at a critical moment, is it the so-called protagonist aura?

No, the reason why he can awaken is that since he was a child, the old Templars have been training Dante harshly, which is the key to Dante's survival, strength will never favor people who are weak in mind and body, although the seven-year-old Dante only has a not very strong mind, he has a strong body comparable to that of an adult!

Listening to Dante's question, Chas scratched his head.

"Dante, the police are the protectors of the citizens, the defenders of the law and the maintainers of order!"

"Do you mean that the police like to kill people at will to maintain order?"

Dante's eyes stare in amazement, whether it is the policeman who injured the seven diners or the policeman who seriously injured Dante, they are all crazy lunatics in Dante's eyes.

When Chas heard Dante's words, he shook his head weakly.

"Maybe some of the police are bad, but there are still many police who insist on the justice in their hearts, and in your time, there was no government agency to protect civilians?"

"Of course!" Dante nodded, remembering his first teacher, the drunkard, deaf old fellow who was always favored by the god of war.

"The Templars are the protectors of the commoners of our time, but like you said, their quality is always mixed, I kind of understand what you mean!"

Dante then proceeded to read the report.

As time passed, more and more of the report appeared in front of Dante, and Dante's eyes gradually became solemn.

"The corpse of the policeman who first shot wildly at passers-by was detected with an unknown hallucinogenic drug. Dante read it out solemnly: "The group of policemen who arrived at the scene later were actually fakes, and their identities were all unknown!"

These are the only two pieces of information in the report that make Dante ponder, as the rest of the report is about Dante's corpse.

"Chas!"

Dante gently placed the report on the table, and he remembered what the policeman he had stabbed in the chest with his treachery had said to himself before he died.

"I stabbed the assailant in the chest with my own hand, and then the assailant took me by the arm and swore that he was a hero!"

Dante covered his head in annoyance.

"I should have noticed, I should have noticed at the time, I was still wondering why the demon swaddling clothes on his body didn't hatch, it turned out that there was no madness and fear in him that the demons needed to hatch. ”

Before Chas could say anything, Dante continued to fall into his own thoughts.

"Hallucinogenic drugs, it should be similar to the effect of illusion, perhaps, in the eyes of that policeman, he faced a group of vicious devils, and instead of breaking down because of fear, he bravely launched a charge against the devil in his eyes!"

Dante said as he slapped the table hard.

"Yes, it must be what I thought, I remember, before he died, he said, 'I finally saw a human being, I'm sorry, I let too many devils escape from the restaurant, I did my best!', damn it, maybe I killed a real warrior, a warrior who bravely challenged the unknown, a warrior who did not forget justice and honor at the last moment before he died!"

Dante pounded his chest frantically, and the divinity of the fellow warrior continued to bloom, Dante understood a warrior's dedication to battle and the pursuit of honor better than anyone else.

"Chas, what have I done! The hatred of the devil has clouded my eyes, why, why can't I figure everything out first, why am I so impulsive!"

Dante eventually crouches on the ground, he always owns and holds on to his creed, and his wrongdoing last night is a departure from his life's persistence.

Chas looked at Dante who was immersed in pain, and felt a little unbearable, he also read the incident report, and he vaguely understood the story Dante said, but he thought differently from Dante.

"Dante!" Chas shouted Dante's name, trying to make Dante feel better: "You're right, Dante, maybe the policeman you killed really hallucinated, maybe he really thought he killed the devil, but that doesn't hide the fact, the fact is that he shot and wounded seven diners, two of whom left this world forever!"

Chas placed his hands on Dante's shoulders and explained aloud.

"No matter what his purpose is before he does all this, he is guilty, two families because he lost his loved ones, five innocent people suffered undeserved suffering, he is guilty, Dante, you did the right thing!"

Dante was stunned, I was not wrong, yes, I should be right, he did kill innocent people, he did do evil deeds, but what I did was really right!

Dante is confused, but Dante is never confused for long.

"Chas!" Dante stood up and looked at Chas.

"I still insist on my own thoughts, he may have really committed evil deeds and hurt innocent civilians, but he did not betray his profession and heart, he always carried courage and fearlessness, and challenged the devil who appeared in his eyes, he is a real man, he is also a real warrior!"

Dante fell to one knee and prayed for him in silence.

"I can understand your struggle and perseverance, I admit that you have always adhered to your creed, I admire your courage and fighting spirit, I will find your soul, when I light the divine fire and exalt the kingdom of God, you will be reborn in the kingdom of the god of war, I will give you eternal life and pure heart, I will give you glory, justice and light!"

Dante pressed his right hand to his chest, and even though the blood was running down the water, he didn't feel pain, and he kept muttering to himself.

"Because you taught me that not every conclusion will be seen by both eyes!"
