Although it is already autumn.

Although strictly speaking, this late night is already late at night in early autumn.

Although, it still rains on such a night.

But in City C, it can only be said that on such a night, I can only occasionally feel a little cool, no longer stuffy and irritable, and the temperature is definitely not low.

Shorts and shorts are also a little hot to wear this season, and I look at the people at the mouth of the alley with disbelief.

There are people who are also wearing thick coats and even scarves around us in this season, wearing a polite hat that looks a little old, and looks a little impermeable.

He took one step at a time, his steps were not very large, and he still had a cane in his hand.

It seems that the body is really weak, and every few steps, I will cover my mouth with my hands and cough twice, and such a person appears, which makes me look more weird than a demon.

Seeing this, Emperor Tong's expression returned to that calm and calm appearance, and for some reason, he let go of the 'righteous youth' in his hand.

The 'righteous youth' didn't seem to feel anything, and was about to run towards the strange man with joy, but as soon as he took two steps, he looked back at me, scratched his head, pointed to the short spear in my hand, and said, "Can you give that one back to me?" ”

I handed it to him in silence, and as I had said, this young man was really hard to hate.

He took the short spear, said 'thank you' to me, ran towards the strange person again, and after arriving at his side, he even carefully supported the person, and then walked in front of us together, stopping at a distance of about 1 meter between me and Emperor Tong.

Emperor Tong and I don't know what kind of psychology it is, when the strange people walked towards us, we silently stood side by side and waited, feeling that this should be a certain position that we demon hunters want to maintain.

It was only then that I realized that the tightly wrapped eccentric was actually an old man.

Even though he wore a hat, a scarf, and even a pair of sunglasses on such a night, it could not hide the signs of old age on his exposed skin, and even his skin showed a sickly yellow.

Because the package is too tight, the information I can get about his appearance, that's all I can get, in addition, I feel that he is tall, but the thinness is a little abnormal, and the thick clothes can't make him burly, maybe because of his age, his body is a little rickety.

A few of us stood in relative silence, only the 'righteous young man' didn't seem to feel the aura of slight confrontation under this silence, just looked at his teacher with respect and adoration.

"Ahem, cough, cough" In the end, the old man spoke first, but it was just a series of coughs, coughing so hoarsely, it made people feel a little uncomfortable, and it felt like he was about to cough out his lungs.

"Huo Nie, the two water boys, they have admired their names for a long time." After coughing, the old man finally spoke quietly, his voice was calm and atmospheric, and his words were polite and peaceful, but the first two titles pointed out the secret identities of me and Emperor Tong, which further proved that the person who came was definitely not an ordinary policeman.

In the face of such an opening statement, Emperor Tong and I didn't know what to say, let alone what his purpose was? I could only look at him in silence and wait for his next step.

The old man seemed to have some difficulty in speaking, and after saying this opening sentence, he handed the crutches to the righteous young man next to him, and said with a fist at the two of us: "The old man's body has left a secret illness because of the past in his early years. This costume is really a last resort, I hope you will forgive me. ”

I don't know how Emperor Tong feels when he said this, but he said lightly: "The old man is polite." ”

And I, on the other hand, was a little embarrassed, just because I really thought this old man was weird because of his dress.

Unexpectedly, he had a special taste when he opened his mouth.

Emperor Tong had already spoken, and I had to hug my fists and greet the old man, who didn't seem to care much about the inconsiderate appearance of me and Emperor Tong, but said: "Old man Yu Bai, this is the old man and the inferior disciple Sun Fei." As you probably know, my student and I are both police officers, but we don't care about the idle things in the world, and only care about some things that are out of the way. ”

Emperor Tong and I listened to him silently, but between the lines, I felt that he might be very old, and between the words, he was a little like the ancients.

And he was not verbose, after briefly introducing himself, he once again hugged his fists at us and said: "The two young talents also live up to the great names of Huo Nie and the water boys." It was only a short time to subdue this fugitive that we had been tracking for a long time. But the 'Yamen' has the rules of the 'Yamen', because this fugitive has committed a lot of things, and the old man must bring them back in person? ”

It turned out that someone was coming?

I didn't really care too much in my heart, although I had also thought that this demon was an important clue that could be found from the Tong Emperor, and I knew that I was not qualified to 'fight' for this important witness.

Moreover, I have some ambiguity about the so-called distribution of power, the 'world pattern', and even the 'purpose' of what I want to do, and my desire for this so-called witness is not too strong.

Therefore, for this old man Yu Bai's request, I was silent, which was noncommittal.

However, Emperor Tong chuckled, took out a white silk handkerchief, and said while rubbing his flute very casually: "Uncle Yu Bai, you are a member of the 'Yamen', I naturally understand your rules. It's just that they are all for the people, and when you look at the appearance of the Huo Nie family, you also know that it is not easy. You took people away in a few words, and I didn't do it, will the Huo Nie family be a little unwilling? ”

I glanced at Emperor Tong, inexplicably, what did you mean by pulling me as a shield?

I was just thinking about how to deal with it, but Yu Lao'er had already hugged his fist at me again, and said, "Young Master of the Huo Nie family, I see that the injuries of your men can't be delayed. Some people came just now, and I also ordered my subordinates to let them in quickly, and these things also made some noise, and we will deal with them the most cleanly, but your injuries are not light, and you should take care of your injuries. ”

I'm a little suffocated in my heart, this time I even beat it, plus the favor is forced.

Translated as I don't stop your people from coming in to save people, it's a favor, right? You have to bear that you are here, you are seriously injured and unconscious, if the forces of the 'Yamen' intervene and want to trouble you, you will have to spend a lot of time explaining, right?

Whether you want this person or not, you can only do this, I will take him away.

I was not allowed to speak, and Yu Lao'er said to Emperor Tong again: "Recently, under the surface of the water, the undercurrent is turbulent! Presumably, you families want to be the first to get something called Hundred Demon Records. Our yamen does not participate in this matter, but only arrests the wicked man and keeps the people safe. The young master of the water boy family, you are also busy, you must not care about this person at all, right? ”

"Heh" Emperor Tong chuckled and was silent.

Yu Bai didn't raise his eyebrows, and said to Sun Fei next to him: "Why are you still stunned?" Take this fugitive with you. Look at other people's talents, you still have a few more efforts to do. ”

That Sun Fei was said by Yu Bai, and he just smiled 'hehe', and then strode forward, grabbed the collar of the monster lying on the ground, turned over and carried it on his back, and didn't know where to take out a rope, tied it firmly, nodded at me and Emperor Tong and left.

That Yu Bai's purpose was also achieved, and it was the last time he hugged us, smiled, and left.

At this time, another group of people came in the alley, and I didn't bother to think about it, it must be the Huo Nie family, and the person called by Su Ling finally appeared.

Looking at this messy alley, Emperor Tong sneered: "The old man is relaxed, in a few words, he took away an important corner and said that he was their fugitive, and my water boy family also spent manpower and material resources to track it for two weeks." What is this? ”

I thought to myself, speaking of which, count me lucky? Can you have a barbecue?

Looking up and looking at the misty drizzle, I don't know what to say? Actually, is there anything to say between me and Emperor Tong?

Emperor Tong also seemed to be a little excited, waved his hand, beckoned his subordinates, and was about to leave I suddenly remembered something, stopped Emperor Tong, and asked, "Wasn't you very angry with that Sun Fei before?" Why did you just let him go? ”

I'm just curious, I think that according to the character of Emperor Tong, he is definitely not such an easy person to compromise.

"Heh, legend has it that Nie Yan's soul power is outstanding, but what people don't know is that his spiritual sense is not much stronger than that of ordinary people, which makes people imperfect, right? It's normal for such a powerful person to come up to you and you don't feel anything. As he spoke, Emperor Tong turned his head and walked away, casually throwing away the white silk scarf in his hand.

It seems that he has this unenvironmentally friendly habit of throwing handkerchiefs casually.

At this time, the people of the Huo Nie family finally entered the alley and came to the place where the wounded were lying for a lively night.
