Thomas, you want to talk to Riseley......
"Shut up".
"What?"
"It's nothing, I mean let's hurry, Andy said that the bar named Ellroy is alone in Ship Street, and we have to follow the plan."
"Why don't we just go get that bastard director?"
"He's already tainted."
"What?" Resley poked her head out of the bathroom.
"We stalked him secretly, but Affi Miller said his soul was broken."
"You mean to say that his soul has been sold to demons?"
"Yes, and that bastard is our target."
Thomas drove through the city to a run-down, run-down district, looking around at the many old buildings in the neighborhood filled with homeless beggars, some pushing shopping carts and lifeless people in the corners.
"What is this place?"
"This is the city's 'garbage dump', full of indulgence, greed, poverty, hunger, violence, drugs, deception, hopelessness, the hell of the city." Thomas said very helplessly.
How God created the Son of Man, how a man became so miserable, everything here is contrary to the original intention of the Father.
There are so many things like this in this world, and there are more tragic than this.
Will Heavenly Father be disappointed when he sees what he sees?
I think so.
But the Father did not give up on the Son of Man, and the Son of Man should cheer up.
Yes, the Father did not give up, but they gave up on themselves.
Thomas and Alfie Miller approached their destination while talking, and saw Andy standing in the door of a bar smoking a cigarette, Thomas pulled his hood very low, walked up to Andy and handed him a cigarette, he shook his head, "You're late." ”
"You know, women's troubles."
"That bastard in a tweed suit at the bar inside."
Thomas shook his head at the car and told Resry that it was time to get started, he and Andy walked into the alley and were ready to sneak up on Elsroy, and soon saw Resry and Elsroy coming out of the bar with a smile on their shoulders, apparently Elsley was a little drunk and walked a little shaky, the two walked shoulder-to-shoulder to the alley across the road, Thomas and Andy followed.
Elroy woke up groggily, his eyes aching and painful, and he struggled to open them, and saw a hooded man sitting on the bed opposite, he shook his head to see more clearly, and his blurred vision also made him know that it was in a cheap inn, and he got up to find that he was trapped very firmly by the rope.
"You bastard, do you know who I am? Do you know what the crime of kidnapping a police officer is? You'd better ...... before I get angry," Elroy shouted loudly to the man opposite.
Thomas didn't answer and rode on top of him and punched him hard, which made Elroy sober up a lot, and his mouth was warm and bloody running down the corners of his mouth.
"Bastard, those two punches count as interest."
"You...... You are...... That ......"
"Be prepared to repent, bastard."
Grabbing Elroy's head and forcibly straightening it, Elroy began to panic in his heart, wanting to scream but not having the strength at all, only to hear the person behind him say.
"Do not hide it from me, for I, as an angel of heaven, admonish you Eloi, and if you conceal a word of your word, may the punishment be upon you severely, for what is hidden you will be burned by the fire of hell. Confess your sins to me, and do not hide your wickedness, and accept God's punishment for you, and ask God to forgive your sins. The angel's hand slowly rested on the struggling Elroy.
At this time, Elroy suddenly felt very calm, he was getting farther and farther away from his consciousness, a powerful, majestic voice warned him, release the secret hidden in his heart, he would be like a newborn baby in front of the world, his eyes were slightly open, the consciousness of resistance had faded, and now Elroy had no resistance to any external force.
Thomas watched as Afie Miller raised his hand and disappeared, he got up and opened the door and nodded to Andy, who was waiting outside, signaling that he could be interrogated.
Andy looked at Ellroy's state, then at Thomas, and asked in a questioning tone, "What did you do to him?" ”
"It's nothing, the interrogation methods I used a lot when I was in the army, and he won't hide anything now. Even if you ask his wife where the mole on her ass is, he will tell you without concealment. Please. Thomas made a gesture of please.
Andy looked at Thomas with suspicious eyes, Thomas made a gesture again, Andy helped Ellroy and asked suspiciously, "Who are you and where do you work?" ”
"My name is Ellroy and I'm in the Ferlinghill City Police Department, Street Crime Investigation Division." He spoke in a slow voice, as if he had drunk two bottles of strong whiskey and read Alexandre Dumas's writings.
Andy looked back at Thomas and nodded, admiring his amazing hand, while Resley came out of the bathroom with a towel to wipe her head, and set up the phone and stand in her handbag, all of which Andy asked questions himself.
"Elroy?"
"Yes."
"Your position?"
"Fellinghill City Police Department, Street Crime Investigation Division."
"How?"
"My Social Security, 998376D, Police Officer Number P.O. 23842."
"All the questions I ask now, you have to answer truthfully." Andy looked at Ellroy's distracted eyes.
"Yes."
"Thomas. Do you still have an impression of Barrico's case? Ellroy hesitated slightly, but his eyes were still the same, and then he replied very mechanically.
"Yes, yes."
"Tell me everything you know." Andy frowned and looked at Ellroy, what he said next would be the turning point of the case.
"Yes, I only know that this case was arranged by Director Hunter, and the crime is attempted armed robbery and wounding, and the arrest process went smoothly."
"And then?"
"Then, I arranged for Tony to escort Thomas to the designated location."
"There? Who instructed it? What is the passage. ”
"After the briefing, Director Hunt gave a separate order for me to arrange for Thomas to be escorted to the abandoned steel mill in the old town, where someone would hand over Thomas. Barrico, we don't have to worry about anything. ”
"Who is the handover?"
"I just know it's a lawyer."
"Then do you know that the three of Tony will die because of this?"
"I don't know, I just know that Director Hunt said that if something happens to you push it to Thomas. Barrico. ”
"You mean that Hunter should know that these three men are carrying out death orders, right?"
"I used to suspect that I personally thought ...... So to speak. ”
"Whose instructions was Hunter instructed to?"
"I overheard that Director Hunt had close contact with Judge Wynnett because of this."
"What's the deal with the wanted warrant?"
"I don't know."
"Who is behind the operation?"
"I don't know."
"Then who is Hunter closer to?"
"A magistrate named Morin and Judge Wynette of the District Court."
"What else do you know about it?"
"Nope."
"What's your deal-with the gang?"
"I give them information and they give me a cut every month, it's not fixed."
"Approximately?"
"Between $5,000 and $10,000."
"Where did you put all this money?"
"A secret door behind a garage shelf."
"What's your model?"
"I give them time for raids, they offer small roles to top the bag, and I also have to crack down on the drug business of foreign gangs."
"Are you involved in the drug deal?"
"Yes."
"Does Hunter know?"
"Yes."
"What's his percentage of the rake?"
"I don't know, he communicates with Ross alone."
"Who's Rose?"
"It's called Romis. Stillmore, as everyone calls him Cousin Rose, is in charge of the drug trade in Fellinghill City. ”
"Do you have proof?"
"There's an account book, and it's put with the money."
Andy knew he couldn't get any more information from El Roy, so he turned off his phone, looked up at Thomas and Resley standing in the doorway and nodded to show that that that was enough, then turned to look at El Roy again.
"Why did you choose me to solve this case?"
"Because you are unpopular, sloppy, unsociable, and lazy in the bureau, Hunter said that this case is the most suitable for Andy, anyway, it is a hot potato, someone has to be blacked out, he still said that you will not find out something from here, if you really investigate something, then it will be blamed on you." Andy felt angry, desolate, and sad when he heard this, and he concentrated all the strength of his body on his fists, clenching his fists, and his hands, which were tense because of the force, began to redden, and tremble.
Thomas put one hand on Andy's shoulder and shook his head, hoping that he wouldn't have a seizure here, he came back to his senses from his anger, nodded and understood what Thomas meant, he secretly swore that he would definitely let these miscellaneous creatures live in horror from now on, he stood up and slowly packed away his phone, and calmly went into the bathroom to wash his face, and when he saw El Roy sitting there, his heart churned with a wave of disgust and anger, he actually killed three people so easily, but his face was full of indifference.
"Come on, man, it's not worth it for such scum." Thomas advises Andy.
"Such people deserve to go to hell." Andy took a sip, but Ellroy remained still, his eyes glazed and unresponsive to anything around him.
Angry, Andy rushed into Hunter's office, and made other colleagues look up at him by making a lot of noise inside, and after a while, Andy slammed the door and left, looking at his face but he was in a good mood, and heard Hunter yelling on the phone, and it took a while before it subsided, and the process of revoking Thomas's wanted warrant was very fast, and because of this, Maureen, Hunter and Wheathit's pressure on the media minimized the maximum impact.
Sure enough, as Andy expected, Ellroy was assassinated in front of his house and went to hell completely, he went to Ellroy's house in advance to take a picture of the ledger, and in order to provide evidence for the future tracking down Rose's cousin, he made a deal with Hunter for Thomas to get the identity as soon as possible, and he knew that the recording was always a bomb to be detonated in his hands.
Although he committed the crime for Thomas, the real murderer has not yet been caught, Andy can feel that the hand of death is slowly reaching for him, some people think he is too much in the way, Andy is more careful than before.
Thomas was free to move now from being wanted, and he felt the shackles on his body lifted, making him incredibly relaxed, and exposing him more to the outdoors, where surveillance was constantly watching every street, every store, every person who walked under them, and perhaps restoring Thomas's identity was also designed by them.

In an antique study, the flames burning in the fireplace reflect the beating flames on the surrounding home, in front of the fireplace, there is an old man who is flipping through a book, there is a cane next to the sofa, one foot on the footstool, looking at the book in his hand with relish, at this moment the phone rings, he lowered his head from behind his glasses and looked at the vibrating mobile phone on the small table, took off his glasses and picked up the phone.
"Huh? Well......, when is it ......, okay, is this news accurate? ......, of course......, that S-0-18532, is there any specific documentation? …… Who else knows? …… Who is in charge now? ......, okay, I see, this is still a very tricky thing. ”
After putting down the phone, the mobile phone received a file for a while, and after opening it, the old man's brows furrowed, put the mobile phone on his lap and looked at the roaring flame in the fireplace, and after thinking for a while, the old man continued to put on his glasses and continued to look at his book. The wolf clan began to march in the direction of Fort Herbert according to the established plan, if you go to the castle, you will definitely pass through a dense forest, which is the road of the surprise attack developed by the first war between the wolf clan and the blood clan, because this plank road is the first war to the other party to deal a heavy blow, and it is also the heaviest casualty in the history of the blood clan, the armistice has not set foot here for many years, and the blood clan has also re-set traps and protections for their weak rear, and the seemingly calm surface is full of murderous opportunities.
"Look, Neo, there." Neo followed Philip's finger and saw a metal under the dead leaves in the distance, and then Philip reached out to stop Neo from him, and slowly stepped back with him, with Neo and Ryman walking first behind Philip, and then the three of them slowly moved backwards to avoid the traps.
"Neo and Riman." Philip whispered to them. The two men who walked in front of him gathered at Philip, crouched down and watched Philip unfold, and then Philip pointed upward, "Follow the Levi River to the east, go north at the junction of the Kronby River, if it is fast, we will reach Fort Herbert in about 3 hours." Philip saw Neo's expression of wanting to speak, he knew what he was thinking, and said in a reassuring tone: "This is very old, but it is very detailed, you have to believe me, believe this one, your grandfather used this one to successfully sneak up on Herbert's lair." ”
