Chapter 4: The Emergence of the Hunters' Guild (Pseudo).
Bang!
Unlike the boy's head, which the leader had expected, a tall figure suddenly appeared and blocked the bullet in front of the boy.
"Who?"
Accompanied by the moonlight, everyone saw a man wearing a double-horned ornament on his head and a half-armored robe standing in front of Andrew. looked at the leader with a blank face. There is no emotion in the eyes.
"Susa, I'm sorry for you, get rid of them all!" Andrew spoke.
"......" Hearing Andrew's words, Susa didn't speak, but took a step forward.
The leader was stunned, and a flurry of bullets poured out the remaining four bullets. He swore that most of the bullets had hit him, and two of them had been shot in the head under his own deliberate control! But he still couldn't change the status quo, and the other party continued to move without any reaction.
Seeing this, several of his subordinates all rushed to Susa and punched, even the people who were originally holding Peter and Jessica down. But in just a few seconds, several big men fell to the ground one after another, motionless!
Susa pushed the leader to the deepest part of the alley and stretched out his hand, his thin arm not half as thick as the leader's arm. But such a small arm pinched the leader's neck at once, and then lifted him up as the leader struggled.
"Let it go! No...... Please, please let go! The leader spoke with difficulty, pleading bitterly. But the last image in his mind was a man with dark blue hair looking at him, and then speaking seriously.
"I refuse!" With a force on his hand, the sound of his neck bones shattering that only he could hear sounded.
"......" threw the dead leader to the ground and threw it next to several other people, then walked over to the two men who had just been knocked away by Andrew, and threw them together with the same clutching necks. Only then did he turn his head to look at the three Andrews.
Seeing the non-humans' attention focused on them, both Peter and Jessica were nervous.
"You, you, you......" Peter felt that he could not speak, "thank you." "Anyway, he saved them. It can be seen from the fact that he blocked the bullet for Andrew.
“…… Let's go first. Andrew spoke, his voice distinct in the empty alley. He gasped for breath, it didn't feel good for so many lives to disappear in front of his eyes: "The gunshots are too obvious, we need to evacuate quickly, Susa will help find the bullet just now, and then you will leave." ”
"Good, good! Let's go! Jessica, who was still older, reacted the fastest, she quickly got up, helped Peter up, and then pulled Andrew out.
Without saying a word, he followed Jessica to her house. As soon as all four of them had entered, she closed the door and locked it.
Jessica's apartment is a small room, after all, the work of a waitress does not support her to have a good living environment.
After putting Peter and Andrew on the bed, she immediately found the medical kit and bandaged the two of them.
"Huh......" was silent until everything was done, and Jessica let out a long breath and collapsed on Andrew's other side: "It's really exciting today......"
"Should we call the police...... Peter relieved himself at this time. He grinned, as if to ease his pain, before speaking.
"No!"
"No way!"
Andrew and Jessica both spoke at the same time.
"Son, didn't you understand what the man said? If we pretend nothing happened, nothing will happen. If we call the police, won't the gangsters know about us? Jessica explained to Peter.
"That's right." Andrew nodded: "We can't guarantee whether the police are in collusion with this place or not." It's very possible that the group is so arrogant. ”
"......" followed by a moment of silence.
"Those people ......," Peter's voice trembled, "are they all dead?" ”
"It's good to be dead!" Jessica heard Peter's words and exclaimed, "Those people are scum! Scum! It's shit! If they don't die, it's our turn to live or die! Think about what just happened. ”
...... heard Jessica's words, and Peter stopped talking.
So...... "Men are still stronger than women." Although he felt uncomfortable about his death, Peter still forced himself to pull himself together, and then changed the subject: "Man, should you explain what the hell is going on?" As he spoke, he glanced at Susa, who was standing in the corner.
Andrew hesitated, as if wondering whether to tell them or not.
"Man, we've known each other for over a decade." Peter grinned, "In this world, you, Harry, Uncle Ben, and Aunt May are all my family. ”
"I'm curious, too." Jessica also spoke: "Now that we've successfully tied together, it's okay to tell us." Anyway, I've known you two for two years, and I should know what kind of person I am. If you hadn't told me, I'd really think about it. Are you mutants? Don't worry, I won't discriminate. ”
"Neither will I!" Peter also hurriedly spoke: "Actually, I think mutants are quite emotional. ”
"No, we're not mutants." Andrew shook his head.
"Occult gangs?" Peter joined the brainstormers.
"Alien test subject?"
"Transform people?"
"Stop, stop!" Andrew shouted, "You guys have a big brain. Looking at the expressions of the two people who were now a little relaxed. As soon as his mind moved, a plan that he had thought of before crossed his mind.
"I can tell you things." Andrew spoke, but as Peter and Jessica leaned forward to listen, Andrew continued, "But once you've heard it all, you'll never be able to get out." ”
"No matter how bad it is, it can't be any worse. Now I've got several hits involved. Jessica spoke immediately. Peter thought for a moment, but didn't speak, seemingly acquiescing.
"This is Susa, one of the twelve local branches of the Hunters' Association, codenamed Ugly Cow, my partner!" Andriy began his actor-level performance, or explained with a stiff face: "We are hunters!" ”
"Hunter?!"
"Yes!" Andrew nodded, "But it's not the hunter you think." To use a metaphor, hunters are a class that we have a clear purpose and pursuit. For example, a food hunter who travels around the world in search of delicious ingredients, a phantom beast hunter who finds many unknown creatures, a bonus hunter who fights criminals or illegal hunters, etc., by the way, Susa is a food hunter, and I have just become a hunter, so I don't know exactly what I will do, but I think I will become a bounty hunter to fight criminals. ”
"Like a superhero in a comic?" Peter asked.
"Well, it's like a superhero!" Nodding in agreement.
"That's pretty cool!" Peter became interested: "Can I join this Hunters' Association?" ”
"And me." Jessica also spoke: "I'm a weak woman who has such a thing, and I always have to find a backer." Jessica saw this matter very thoroughly, since there was no escape. Of course, try your best to get closer, judging from Andrew's description just now, the Hunters Association seems to be a very powerful organization.
"I don't know about this either?" Spreading his hands, Andrew opened his mouth to explain: "Although the hunter's choice is varied. But if you want to become a hunter, the first condition is a strong heart and a strong body. I didn't think there was anything in the former, but in the latter ......" shrugged and Andrew didn't say anything more.
Thinking of Andrew's strength and Susa's non-human performance just now, Peter and Jessica were silent.
"But maybe there's still a chance." As soon as the conversation changed, Andrew spoke again and gave the two of them a little hope: "The Hunter Association has had some problems recently and urgently needs manpower, and it is impossible to say that things will turn around." Moreover, Susa has a high status in the Hunters' Association. ”
"Really? Please, buddy. Peter immediately came to Susa, and then begged, "Dude, you must help me and Jessica have a few kind words." A weaker like me is not the same as an athletic genius like Andrew. Well...... It's nice to be a civil servant, and I dream of becoming a scientist. Or does your association need a waiter? ”
"And those bad guys have been dealt with by Susa." Jessica also spoke, looking at Susa with an eager look, "Maybe they'll find us." You're not going to die, are you......"
"......" Susa was unmoved. It didn't look like he had the words of the two of them in his ears at all.
Seeing that Susa oil and salt did not enter, the helpless two turned their eyes to Andrew.
"I can't help it." Andrew shook his hand: "And now we need to appear to be more than just that." Peter ......" turned to look at Peter, "It's time for us to go home." He gestured to the time on the wall.
"Oops!" Seeing that it was nearly 11 o'clock, Peter didn't care about anything else at this time, and immediately got up: "It will take at least more than an hour to get home here." Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei must have died in a hurry. What about my phone? "I hurriedly looked for my phone, but in the end I only found a phone with a black screen and a broken screen.
"Let's go, let's go, just say I've been here with Jessica." Seeing Peter meaninglessly fiddling with the broken phone, he looked desperate. Andrew spoke: "It's good to hurry back now, and it won't take more than an hour to get home from here." As he spoke, he smiled and said in the direction of Susa.
