Chapter 17: Come with me back to the Vatican
A battle ended in the night, Zhang Yang held his one-handed broadsword, found a relatively intact bench and sat down, and then watched Van Hesing's movements.
According to the agreement, he captured the monster Hagrid alive for Van Hesing, and handed over the monster to Van Hesing, and the bounty that should have been awarded by the black market naturally became paid by Van Hesing, or the Holy Order of the Catholic Church behind him, and Zhang Yang now directly followed Van Hesing's side as a creditor.
Anyway, as long as Van Hexin hasn't paid for a day, Zhang Yang has enough excuses to follow the locality.
At this moment, Van Hesin carefully examined Hagrid and confirmed that the left arm and the knee of both legs of this guy had been comminuted, and there was no power to resist, and no matter how much the calculation formula could not repair the broken bones in a short time, he was relieved.
"What are you doing here?"
With a snap, Van Hesin picked up his pistol and slammed the butt to the back of Hagrid's head, who rolled his eyes and fainted, then took out a needle from his body and injected it into Hagrid's body.
"Anesthetic, to prevent this guy from escaping."
Van Hesin explained, and then Zhang Yang watched Van Hesin find a few ropes, tied Hagrid sturdily, and took out a scroll-like thing from his bosom, turned out a box of matches, and lit a cotton wool-like thing outside.
"This is our flare, which we use to contact other people."
Before Van Hesin's words fell, the scroll-shaped thing suddenly erupted into a bright spot, quickly and lightly submerged into the night sky, and was extremely conspicuous in the dark night.
"Anyone else?"
Zhang Yang thought of something.
"Of course."
Watching the flare fall, Van Hesin fired it again. Only then did he put away the thing, stared at the situation outside the window, and then came to a chair not far from Zhang Yang and lay down, comfortably put his feet on a broken table, and explained to Zhang Yang, who was a little curious.
"I belong to an unofficial organization, as you may have heard, called the Holy Order, and our mission to destroy the dark forces and protect humanity is actually similar to you demon hunters. It's just that we don't rely on bounties, and we don't think of this as a profession to eat. β
"I see, you're trying to call your companion and get this big guy away?"
"That's right."
Van Hesin stretched comfortably, and there was still a faint ache in his body. continued: "It's just that I'm the one in charge of arresting, and these people don't care about my other business. So I have to be self-reliant in everything. When I catch the target, I give it to them, and they have a way to send it somewhere else. β
Only then did Zhang Yang know that in addition to Van Hersin, there were some people in London who were responsible for answering Van Hersin, but obviously these people were rarely exposed on weekdays, and Zhang Yang didn't know that. Although these people belong to the same camp as Van Hesing, they are under the jurisdiction of another cardinal, and they will not care about Van Hesin's life, so Van Hesin is hard. After spending all his money in London for a week, he had to go to Viscount Victor's house to steal some food to satisfy his hunger.
Of course, Van Hersin will not expose himself to the troubles, so Zhang Yang has no way of knowing.
Zhang Yang's current task is to find Van Hersin and raise the relationship to 60/100, and after the contact just now, the relationship between Van Hersin and Zhang Yang has been raised to 40/100.
"It seems that we have to find a way to gain Van Hersin's trust."
I didn't feel sorry for the 40-year-old Cheng dΓΉ, after all, the time I had in contact with Van Hersin was too short, if it wasn't for my own favor, I am afraid that even the 40-year-old Cheng would not be able to do it.
"Anyway, for the rest of the time, just follow Van Hesin until the mission is completed."
But obviously, it was only less than half an hour of contact with Van Hersing, and he needed another reason to follow Van Hesing's side.
Zhang Yang cleared his throat, he had already thought of an excuse.
"Ahem, Van Hessin, one of my biggest concerns right now is, I've given it to you, when will you pay me the money? You know, that's what I eat from this bastard. β
When it came to the question of money, Van Hesin's originally enjoyable face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and after scratching his head a little embarrassed, Van Hesin looked at Zhang Yang and said.
"Well, Mr. Li, can we discuss something?"
"What's the matter?" Zhang Yang had a vague premonition.
Sure enough, the next moment Van Hersin was very embarrassed and said: "The money I brought when I went out has run out, can you wait for two more days?" β
"Running out? Wait two more days? β
Zhang Yang deliberately frowned, but his heart was already happy, and he was really sleepy and sent a pillow, Zhang Yang glanced up and down at Van Hexin with suspicious eyes.
"Hey, I worked hard to catch the monster for you, you probably want to pay the bill, right? If you are in debt, I suggest that you think carefully first. β
As he spoke, his unfazed eyes deliberately skimmed his one-handed sword.
Seeing Zhang Yang's action, Van Hexin's face suddenly turned green, he knew very well about the situation just now, the demon hunter in front of him. Li is simply a monster in human skin, if he really dares to repay his debts, Van Hesin believes that the other party will definitely chase and kill him directly on the street.
Van Hesin has no less dealings with these demon hunters who live a poor life, so it is clear that one of the most annoying things about these guys is to pay their debts.
"No, no, no, it's definitely not a debt, you listen to me explain first."
Van Hesin broke out in a cold sweat, he would rather confront the monster Hagrid than confront Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang listened to his words and thought about it for a moment, and temporarily looked away from the one-handed sword.
"You say, if your reasons don't convince me, I don't mind taking back my own fruit."
Being intimidated by Zhang Yang, Van Hesin couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat in his heart, and hurriedly explained: "I believe you know my identity, then you should have heard of the Holy Knights I belong to, it is a Catholic Knights, we Catholics will not cheat you for 800 pounds, in this way, I will go back to the Vatican in the future, and I will give you money as soon as I go, how about it?" β
In order to convince Zhang Yang of this, Van Hersin even moved out of the Holy Knights, anyway, these things are not too much of a secret in the wizard circle, these people have more or less heard some things about the Knights.
Sure enough, Zhang Yang hesitated after hearing the name of the Holy Knights, but quickly frowned.
"I remember you seemed to summon your companions to pick me up, and you asked them to pay me, wouldn't you? You Catholics can't even come up with this little money, do you? β
"Companion?"
Van Hesin smiled wryly, hesitated for a moment, but still said the reason.
"Although they are all affiliated with the Catholic Church, they won't pay me, it's a canon, and the department they belong to is different from ours, they don't belong to the same governor, they are only responsible for transferring targets, so they won't meddle in the matter of money."
Zhang Yang did not expect that the internal Catholic Church was also divided into such camps, which cooperated externally on the surface but were clearly divided internally and did not contact each other.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Yang glanced at Van Hexin "worriedly" and said, "Even if your reason is very good, then how do I know if you are going back to the Vatican to withdraw money?" What if you run away halfway, or if you don't give me money when you get to the Vatican, you Catholicism is so big, won't I suffer a loss at that time? β
"I really didn't lie to you."
"No, you either give money, or I'll take people away and hand them over to the black market, and I don't take credit here."
Fearing that Van Hesin would regret his debts, Zhang Yang said that he was about to get up and leave with Hagrid.
Van Hesin was a little crying and laughing, but Zhang Yang refused to let go of the question of the honorarium, which made Van Hesin very helpless, but he believed a little bit of Zhang Yang's identity in his heart, he had a lot of dealings with demon hunters, and naturally knew that these guys who walked on the tip of the knife and ate were a group of poor people, and the money they earned was not enough to make some silver bullets and silver piles in addition to enough money for them to drink and not starve to death.
Zhang Yang picked the door like this, but Van Hexin believed his identity even more, and made up the reason for it by himself.
It is impossible to let Zhang Yang take Hagrid away, Van Hersin naturally understands the importance of the prescription in Hagrid's hand, not to mention 800 pounds, even 80,000 pounds is worth it, once such a pharmacy is handed over to the Vatican Knights, once it is installed, he will have an additional means to save his life.
And for Zhang Yang, Van Hexin's impression is still good, and there is a faint desire to win over in his heart, it is the first time he has encountered such a strong guy, even if he can't be friends with him, he can't offend such a dangerous person.
After thinking about it, Van Hesin came up with a seemingly compromise idea.
"Otherwise, after they take the people away, you can follow me to the Vatican until I give you the money, so you can rest assured, right?"
"Come back to the Vatican with you?"
Zhang Yang looked at Van Hexin suspiciously, and only made a decision after thinking about it for a long time, although his face was reluctant, but he had already covered his mouth and snickered in his heart.
"Okay, but let's say it, I won't leave without taking the money."
"Don't worry, not a penny will be less!"
Van Hesin breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting rid of this difficult character for the time being, and his heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Seven or eight minutes after the flare was fired, there was a sound outside the church, Zhang Yang got up and looked through the window, four black horses pulled a black carriage, stopped at the door of the church, two middle-aged men jumped out of the car, looked around and walked towards the church.
"It's our people."
Van Hersin reminded softly. (To be continued......)
