In the middle of the battlefield, a ball of light falling from the sky exploded on the ground, as if it was deliberately trying to attract everyone's attention. The crowd searched for the source of the blow, and finally all eyes were on the other side of the road, in the direction of the town of Langeta.

Someone came over. He was dressed in brown clothes, with unkempt green hair, a black blindfold on his right eye, an unhurried step, and his right hand crackling like an electric discharge from time to time, mixed with flashes of white light.

His appearance caused panic among two people, one was Karui and the other was Akeya.

"Why is he here?"

Akeya muttered to herself, a little dumbfounded. Leo looked closely, wasn't this the same person he had seen at the institute before?

"I've seen this guy before, near the institute."

When Akeya heard this, she grabbed Leo's shoulders and glared anxiously in the eyes.

"What? Why didn't you say it sooner!? Then we have a chance to change our plans! ”

"Calm down, Akeya, who is he?"

"He's ......"

"Haroff Raymond Dimitt, why are you here?"

Karui couldn't believe his eyes. It's no wonder that he just had a big fight with Dimmit the night before yesterday, and he was injured a lot, so he held on to the rendezvous today. I thought I could get rid of each other, but I didn't expect to meet so soon.

"I heard from some tipster," Dimmit said lightly with a defiant smile, "but what a coincidence, Karui of the Black Force." Look at you like that, the last injury wasn't healed, right? ”

"Are you here to grab the core?"

"Nonsense."

Dimmit replied casually, looked over to where the trio were hiding, cleared his throat, and announced loudly in a voice that everyone could hear.

"I'm here to get the core, everyone get out of here. Whoever dares to get in the way, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

"Ha, what are you talking about alone?"

Gwen didn't take Dimmit's warning seriously at all, and commanded his men to aim their guns at Dimmit.

"Everyone, pay attention, count that arrogant kid as a target, kill him first!"

"Wait, don't ......"

Before Akya could finish shouting, tongues of fire erupted from the muzzles of the policemen's guns, and a dense rain of bullets rained down on the enemy. Dimmit remained motionless, a man-high wall of light opened in front of him, and the bullets crackled against the wall of light, and then bounced away, flying around without long eyes.

When the police had enough, Dimiit slowly picked up a stone, shook it, and threw it at the policemen. The stone skulls reached the feet of the police, who looked at the glowing stone in a daze. Dimmit snapped his fingers, and the stone exploded in the crowd.

Suddenly, Gewen's position was in chaos. One car was blown up, and the two policemen closest to the stone had their arms broken and fell to the ground wailing. The rest of the police were also affected to varying degrees, and the team that was still waiting for it just now was defeated in an instant.

"Who else is dissatisfied?"

Dimmit, who had shown his strength, didn't speak loudly, but it made Leo's hair stand on end. With a snap of his fingers, a team of armed police officers was extinguished, and if this continued, everyone would surely die.

There's only one way.

"Andora, give me the box."

"What for?"

"Lose the car and protect the handsome."

"Do you want to hand over the core? But! ”

"I know what you think, but it's a matter of saving your life now, listen to me!"

Andora was still hesitating, Leo snatched the box with his hand, ignored Andora's objections, endured the pain in his shoulder, walked out of the hideout, and walked towards Dimmit step by step.

Dimmit also recognized Leo: "Oh, it's you." ”

"yes, meet again. The core is in this box. ”

"I know."

"I'll give it to you, can you let us live?"

Leo held the box up to Dimmit's eyes. Dimmit laughed.

"Is this begging for mercy?"

"Sort of."

Dimmit opened a hand and slowly raised it in front of Leo's eyes. Leo took a sharp breath, held his breath, didn't move, and a cold sweat flowed down his face. His life is in the palm of Dimmit's hand, whether he is dead or alive depends on the mood of this person.

Luckily, Dimmit just smiled, put down his hand and took the box.

"I'm not interested in abusing the weak, so get out of here while I haven't changed my mind."

"Thank you then."

The negotiations were successful, and Leo fled to Gwen with Andora and Akeya. Ge Wen and some lightly injured policemen simply disposed of the wounded, and everyone boarded a few cars that could barely move and fled in confusion.

Seeing the armed police leave, Dimiit looked at Karui and Rennes again.

"What about you? Escape, or fight? I don't care. ”

"Joke!" Raines dragged his injured body to his feet, his tone unyielding, "This is Lord Black's order, it must be done, even you!" Shoot! ”

The gunners' frenzied shooting could not penetrate Dimitt's light shield at all, and then the same scene played out again. A flaming fireball flew from Dimiit's hand towards the crowd of black troops.

The trees burned, and the gunmen hiding in them shouted to roll out, and those who were not hiding inside were hit by fireballs, which in a panic set the people next to them on fire, and they quickly turned into burning men, screaming and rolling on the hillside, rolling a few times and falling down the hillside. This is not a battle at all, it is a completely one-sided torture.

"Enough! Come on! ”

Shouting Kaw, the surviving soldiers were signaled to be liberated, leaving behind a few corpses and fleeing in a hurry.

In a matter of minutes, both sides retreated, leaving only dimit, pits, and burning trees on the battlefield. Dimmit then opened the box and took out the glowing core inside.

"Waste my time."

*****

The defeated police officers drove back to the station in one go, and Gwen found someone to help Leo on his shoulder, bandaged Akya and Andora, and sent them back to the police station. The trio met Rolov in a conference room, and Akya reported the whole story to Rolov.

When he heard Dimmit appear, Rolov was a little shocked, and he felt that the following process was reasonable. From Dimmit's words, it sounds like this group of people is called the "Black Army". It's a good thing that the core wasn't snatched up by the black forces, but it fell into the hands of a more troublesome person, and it couldn't be snatched back.

"I don't blame you for the appearance of Dimmit this time, and the way things have turned out."

"Don't be so simple, old man, I understand it now."

Leo glared fiercely into Rolov's eyes. On the way back, he thought carefully about the ins and outs of the matter, and held back what he had to say. Rolov did not shy away from it, waiting for his attack.

"Tell me the truth, what are the three of us going for?"

"Go get the core."

"Then why don't you hand it over to the police and bring it back? They protect the core better than we do! ”

"They're bait......"

"It's the three of us!?"

As soon as these words came out, Andora's eyes widened in surprise, Akeya was expressionless, and Rolov just closed his eyes for a moment, and he was not surprised at all by Leo's words.

"Gewen came so quickly, he must have been ready to pick us up a long time ago. That is, you have already guessed that there is an ambush for the enemy, right? ”

Leo said nonchalantly, and Rolov opened his eyes slightly to look at him.

"The three of you were seen by the enemy on the night of the explosion, and if you reappear, the enemy will definitely take the bait. If they had known about Andora's relationship with Trikoff, they would have assumed that the core was with you. ”

"So you planned to use us from the very beginning to fish out the enemy and destroy them?"

"Do you think I'm going to let them go?"

Rolov's voice was not high, but it was resolute and unquestionable, Leo was gone, and Andora wanted to ask a few questions, but she didn't dare to say anything.

"My plan was fine, but no one could have imagined that Dimmit would come and stir things up. Without him, Gwen would have been able to eat those people. If you have the guts, go to Dimmit for revenge and shout at an old man, what kind of ability! ”

Leo was speechless, his fists clenched. The overwhelming force that is enough to make all dissent disappear is not something that you can contend with.

"I hope that through this incident, you, especially Leo and Andora, will understand that Akiyama City is not as peaceful as you usually see. Where you can't see it, there are many enemies like today. Although it was a coincidence this time that swept you in, you should be thankful, shouldn't you? ”

Andora understood what Rolov meant. If he hadn't participated in these operations, the last thing he would have known would have been the inexplicable explosion of the school, the injuries of teachers and students, and the inexplicable death of Professor Trikoff, and the truth would never have been known.

"So, in order to better deal with similar situations in the future, I need a team directly under me to assist the police, and that is the three of you. The captain is you, Leo. ”

Rolov suddenly changed his words, catching Leo off guard.

"What? Directly in your group? And what captain? ”

"It's just a name...... Well, the special operation execution detachment, referred to as the special detachment, is good. ”

"It's not a matter of names, old man. Are you going to let us continue to work for you? ”

"Isn't that great? If you hadn't surrendered to Dimmit today, Gwen's team might have been wiped out. Do a good job, and you can get more people to stop following the path of Trickoff. ”

"But I ......"

"Or are you going to do nothing, do nothing, and let the tragedy happen, like you did last year?"

Leo's words calmed Leo, but everyone else could see that beneath that calm was anger that was the most important thing to say.

"Don't bluff me with those words, I'll just do it."

"Good. Remember, you only do what I do, and I will give you high enough authority if necessary. I'm only in charge of giving orders, and you're in charge of the rest, Leo, and that's all. ”

*****

Leo was the first to walk out of the conference room, followed by Andora and Akeya. Leo, who walked in front, put his hands in his pockets, lowered his head, thoughtful. Suddenly, he stopped and looked back.

"Akeya, Andora and I are slow-headed, but you must know what the old man thinks, right?"

"When I listened to the mayor's explanation, I guessed it, captain."

"Why don't you tell us?"

"I think the mayor doesn't know what he wants, so I don't plan to meddle in it. But if there is a similar situation in the future, I will tell the truth, captain. ”

One by one, the captain made Deleo feel uncomfortable.

"Whatever you want."

"Captain, should we have a little meeting next and get to know each other? I want to be able to ...... in the future."

"I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood right now. Gone, Andora. ”

Watching the two leave, Akeya's face that had not risen and fell showed a slight dissatisfaction. There was another job to do, and he turned to the archives.

Although it was named by Rolov, Akya did not have the slightest respect for the captain. Lazy and lazy, not seeking to improve, his skills are good, but he has no consciousness of being a team leader at all. In order to save his life, he casually handed over the key core to Dimmit, and he came up with it.

If it was a colonel, he would definitely come up with a better plan. Thinking of this, Akya couldn't help but feel nostalgic for the good old days, when he fought under Karp's command.

Entering the archives, Akeya sat in front of a computer, and he was next going to check a few past police records. This computer is a bit old, he clicked on the search page, the computer didn't respond for a long time, he had to lean back in his chair and wait.

"Leo...... Looking for him to be the team leader, is it really the grandfather to the grandson? ”

Akya muttered to herself, just as the lookup page popped up on the screen. He muttered as he tapped on the keyboard, subconsciously typing Leo's name into the query bar.

"Oops."

Akeya, who had come back to his senses, had already pressed the enter key, and the computer began to search. Akya sighed and had to wait. There are thousands of records here, and there are so many kinds of records that I'm afraid it's going to be searched for a while.

After waiting for five minutes, the search was complete, and the result surprised Akeya.

In the police records, there is actually a search result related to Leo, and the type is displayed as "general case", which is a trivial matter.

Akeya suddenly became interested, what kind of case could this be?

He held the mouse, clicked a few times on the record, and the file was opened. The images and text appeared on the screen, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Here are four photographs of the same person, with blood on his face, his clothes soaked in blood, and several parts of his skin exposed. It can be seen that the blood has been retained on the body and clothes for a long time, and it has penetrated deep into it, and through the screen, Akya seems to smell the smell of blood all over the person's body.

But it wasn't these that surprised him, it was the man's face.

Can't be wrong, it's definitely Leo.

His eyes were half-open, and he was very weak. The first shot shows Leo sitting with his back to the roots of a tree with his head bowed, and the next two shots show several police officers helping him up and putting him in an ambulance in the fourth.

Compared to the four bloody photos, the text next to it is an understatement, only the time of the police is written, it is 5 o'clock in the morning on June ^4 last year, near the old Henry Market in the north of Akiyama City, someone found Leo. Caller...... It was still empty, and there was no indication if it was discovered during the patrol. The police then took Leo to the hospital, and that ended the matter.

The more Akeya looked at it, the tighter his brows became, and after reading it, it was even more locked into a knot.

If Leo is Roloff's grandson, it is understandable that Rolof personally took care of him, but how did he become like this? Why not continue the investigation?

The bloodstains on that body were by no means the result of a battle with one or two, three or four people, he must have experienced a bloody battle, and the blood was all dry, probably because the battle was too long.

The curious Akeya changed a few keywords, but he didn't find any more information about Leo, and there was no follow-up to the alarm record that day, so it ended hastily.

A huge question was born in Akeya's mind.

“…… Captain, what happened to him? ”

*****

The two men who came out of the police station got into Andora's car and drove out of the yard, tired and they didn't have the energy to take care of him, and they didn't notice that there was a person squatting in a tree outside the yard.

When the car drove away, the man in the tree, Julie Hany, jumped down. She risked being discovered and lurked here for hours. Now she was convinced that the risk was worth it.

After escaping from the University of Ceylon, Julie returned to the television station. Although she didn't find any valuable clues, she plotted her next move. Even the armed police have been used, and Rolov must have other actions, since he can't find it, he just waits for the rabbit.

She first quickly fooled out the film to be handed in in the afternoon, and then hurried out. This time she didn't tell anyone, she went to the chief police station alone, and in a corner where no one noticed, spread her wings, flew over the wall, intending to see if she would find anything, and was quickly attracted by something.

A car in the parking lot looked familiar. Zhu Liying was somewhat impressed by what she had seen, and the car was of the same make and model as the car she had almost crashed into during the day near the school.

If it were someone else, it would probably only feel like "it's very similar", but Julie's nerves are more delicate. She wondered if it could be the same car during the day, so she leaned over and checked the front hood of the car.

Sure enough, there was decisive evidence on it - the small pit that was trampled out, the shape of which basically matched the sole of his own shoes.

"It's like the car during the day, why is it here?"

Julie thought about it until a few people came in the distance, she hid, and then looked for an opportunity to jump out of the courtyard wall and lurk nearby. For several hours, she did not leave the perimeter of the police station, constantly changing her hiding position. When she saw a car carrying Leo and the others into the compound, she knew that her hard work had paid off.

Zhu Liying also graduated from the University of Ceylon, and there were three people in the car who were not wearing police uniforms, and she recognized Andora among them at a glance, this person was Trikoff's student, and appeared here, maybe it was related to Trikoff?

Twenty minutes later, Leo and Andora came out of the building. Julie realized that she had guessed correctly, they got into the car, and Andora was still sitting in the driver's seat. Judging from the skillful movement of his opening the door and starting the car, the car should be his, that is, he went to school during the day.

Schools are locked down and no one can get in. Of course, it is not excluded that some teachers and students who have a deep affection for the school will take a look at the campus. But the chances of this happening to Andora are slim to none. When the man is usually idle, in addition to picking up girls, he is a research topic, and he has his own office outside the school, and when he has nothing to do, he basically doesn't go back to school.

Unless, he has something to do with it.

"It seems necessary to check on the other two as well."

*****

The defeated black troops fled in two vans to a food factory dozens of kilometers away in one go. This was built two years ago by the Black Army, which can be used to collect funds and serve as a distribution point for the troops.

As soon as the car entered the hospital, the workers who were ready - or rather the soldiers of the black unit - busted themselves and began to rescue the wounded and repair the vehicles and weapons.

Kalou, who was in a terrible mood, jumped out of the car and spat hard as he watched Reignes lying on a stretcher and be carried away, but Dimit's appearance caught him by surprise. I lost the disk yesterday, I lost the core today, I don't know how verbose that old man from Black will be.

"Captain Karui, someone wants to see Captain Rainnes." A worker came over and said to Karui.

"Looking for Raines? Who is it? ”

"She claims to be our inside line at the University of Ceylon."

"Inside?"

As Karui pondered, two other workers led a female college student towards Kalu. Karui looked at the girl suspiciously, this person was not from the Black Army, but like a regular customer, he looked around without being nervous.

"Are you the steward here? What about Mr. Raines? The girl asked.

"Who are you?" Karui asked with a fierce look on his face.

"My name is Leia, and I've been in contact with Mr. Rainnes to help you."

"Help? It's up to you? ”

"Hmph, how would you have access to Trickoff without me? I also carried and detonated the bomb, and implanted a positioning Trojan into Andora's mobile phone, all of which I did! ”

Leia was not afraid of Karui's tone at all, showing off her merits. Karui remembered a little that Raines did say that he had an inside line at Ceylon University. However, he only arrived in Akiyama City today, and I don't know what he promised, and I didn't want to fulfill it at all.

"Less in front of me! Rains is injured and can't see you, go back! ”

Karui turned to leave, but Leia hurriedly grabbed him.

"That's not good, I'm done with the bill today! He promised me a payment! ”

"He promised, and it wasn't me! Get out, I'm annoying! ”

"What does it have to do with me? There's no way to pay your bills! ”

"Stinky!"

Unable to bear it, Karui pulled off the whip pinned to his waist and tied Leia's neck, and the strong wind quickly surrounded Leia. Karui flicked his whip, and Leia was picked up like a windmill by him, and fell headfirst to the ground. The head was broken and bleeding, and the death was miserable.

"Buddy! Come and clean up! What a obscurity! ”

Karui, who had withdrawn his whip, spat at Leia's corpse. Buddy hurriedly called two workers, carried the body away, and stood in front of Karui again.

"There was a call from the altar just now."

"What did old man Blake say?"

"He said that a core is enough, let us go back to the altar to resupply first."

Karui breathed a sigh of relief, but thought of something else.

"What about Martoun's box? And the Soul Finder, that's a stuff. ”

"Captain Becar has returned to the Arctic Continent, and he will take over the command of these two things in the future."

"Bekal is back?"

"Looks like it's coming here tomorrow."

The news finally made Karui smile. "It just so happens that I can save some snacks when he's back. Go and inform everyone, leave the wounded behind, and leave the rest with me!" ”

"Wait a minute, captain, don't we still have to go to Lantian Town?"

"It's all like this, how can you care about them? Let's go! ”
