February 17, 2101.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a white ceiling and the smell of disinfectant water in the air.

The five senses of the body gradually recovered, and I could feel the presence of an infusion tube on my left arm, and then I noticed a tingling pain in the left half of my face, from the lower socket of my left eye to this part of my chin.

Paper Man wanted to reach out and touch it, but the sound of the electronic door opening came at this moment, he looked down, and two people in HL uniforms walked in. One was in his fifties, with gray temples, and even from a distance, the scars on his face were very obvious, and the other looked very young, and his blue hair was dyed or not, but the rank represented by his military uniform was quite high.

"Officer Erot Ness. The tea fairy was the first to speak: "Or ...... Paper Man, huh?"

Instead of answering the question, Paper Man asked to himself, "What is this place?"

The man beside the tea fairy was none other than Faro's mentor, one of the top masters of the HL European Headquarters, Jason Luca, who served as the instructor of the Capable Instructor at the headquarters, and he said in a tone unique to an officer: "Officer Ness, I want to remind you that the Venice incident is still under investigation, and your position is not yet clear, and you are not qualified to ask questions." ”

Who knew that the paper man didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, he got up directly from the hospital bed and ripped off all the instruments attached to his body: "I will hand over a report to ...... in a few days Whoever you give it, I'm not interested in your administrative process. He found his trousers in the closet in the corner of the room, all washed and ironed, and his belongings in a basket on the table.

"You've been in a coma for nearly five days, and it wasn't until twenty minutes ago that the machine showed signs of recovery, and I don't think you're fit to go out and hunt down a wanted criminal with a danger level four with your current physical condition. The tea fairy said calmly.

Still ignoring the paper man, he quickly got dressed, turned around and said, "Where's my shoes?"

Lukka was already a little angry, and he said in a cold tone, "Officer Ness, if you refuse to have a friendly conversation, I will have to arrange a formal interrogation process. ”

"If you can stop me, I'll try. Paper Man walked barefoot outside the house.

The tea fairy sighed, "Mr. Luca." ”

"The subordinates are here. ”

"Try not to hurt him, it's hard work. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

After a brief conversation between the two, Lukka instantly came to the back of Paper Man like a shadow, and Paper Man's vision did not capture the other party's movement trajectory at all, so for him, Lukka disappeared in place.

Before he could react, his hands were already handcuffed behind his back, and the handcuffs didn't know what material they were, and the paper man struggled a few times, but he didn't see the slightest effect.

"I advise you not to do this, or my feet will be handcuffed by me, and it will be too ugly. Lukka was now in front of the Paper Man again.

A second before he spoke, Paper Man just wanted to take advantage of the situation to do a roundabout kick, but before he could move his hips, the other party had already changed his standing position and saw through his intentions.

Seeing this, the paper man knew that in this environment without too much paper, it seemed that he could not compete with the other party, so he gave up his armed resistance and said: "The thing you are interested in is nothing more than the death of the nobles, all I can say is that everything was done by Colonel Marlon, and he hired ......."

"Hired the killers of the Silver Shadow, mimicking the murderous methods of the Blood Lords, and attempting to kill you and Lieutenant Colonel Faro while you are engaged, with the ultimate goal of the throne of the Doge of Venice. The tea fairy interrupted Paper Man's words: "In the past few days that you have been unconscious, the truth has come out, at least within HL, at least within ......HL," he implied, the people and some nobles were still in a fog about this incident.

Luca also spoke: "The blood lord in your mouth, that is, Cheever Chirios, the biggest suspect in San Marco's 'bloody midnight' ten years ago. The madman tore Jim Malone to shreds in an alley and hunted down the Silver Shadow killers all over the city, none of whom were dead. In the end, he also grabbed three live mouths and delivered them to the door of our second division. Listening to Luca's gnashing tone, the blood lord's behavior seemed to be riding on the façade of the HL organization to.

"Huh...... Hahaha......" Paper Man laughed, he obviously understood the meaning. Malone is the sub-head of HL, but he teamed up with Silver Shadow and the others to kill nobles and fight for power, while the Blood Lords did what law enforcers should do, albeit in an extremely horrific and cruel way......

Luca saw the paper man laughing, and was about to have a seizure, but the tea fairy reached out to stop him: "Officer Ness, you're just smiling bitterly." ”

Paper Man's face sank instantly: "These should be things I should do, as a policeman, but I am not as good as a murderer, and even this life is saved by luck under his hands...... The weak do not even have the right to choose how to die. ”

Seeing his strange expression, the tea fairy said, "Officer Ness, I hope you don't ...... personal hatred."

"Less!" Paper Man roared, "What's wrong with the left side of my face?!" he asked suddenly.

The two men in front of him fell silent.

"Hmph...... Hehehe...... I've seen it in your eyes......" said Paper Man, "That's why there are no mirrors or anything like that in the house." ”

Tea Fairy decided to change the topic: "Officer Ness, you are the only person we have who has survived the fight with the blood lord, you are the key to catching him, I hope you can cooperate with us." ”

Paper Man tore the artificial skin on the left side of his face, only to see that the left side of the bridge of his nose, starting from the left eye socket and extending to the chin, about a third of the face part, there was no intact skin, the flesh under the skin was mottled, there were no lips, teeth and gums were all exposed. The reason why he was able to speak normally just now and did not feel severe pain was all due to the superb medical technology of these years.

This kind of technology paper man also understands, the plastic surgery department of the general hospital also uses this kind of method to treat patients with severe burns, this part of his face can never be healed, and the pain will gradually disappear after a while, the most superficial layer uses artificial cells, which can replace the skin, and will soon adapt to the condition of exposure to the air, as for the outer layer of artificial skin, it is purely for aesthetics, it doesn't matter if there is no harm, even if it is torn off, it can also maintain this state of exposed flesh and bones, and it will not be infected.

Paper Man's pathology report floated from the side of the bed, and the paper was layered on half of his face, which at first glance looked like a mummy's bandage, and the paper fit together with his face, like a large blank space embedded in a human face puzzle. It was as if a piece of paper was wrapped in human skin, but part of the paper was exposed.

"What's your name?" said Paper Man, looking at the tea fairy.

Luca said, "Officer, watch your wording. ”

The tea fairy didn't mind: "Krauser Wittstock." ”

"Oh, that seventh prince who has a palace and is not good to stay, but has to go to HL. It seems that Paper Man has heard his name: "Tea Fairy, right?"

A smile appeared at the corner of the tea fairy's mouth: "The blood owl is one of the prey that I am very interested in, Officer Ness, no...... Paper Man, I need to rely on your strength for this hunt. ”

Paper Man said: "I can't ask for it." ”

"Then, follow me and wash away the humiliation with this new look. ”
