"So we're decoys, and our only role is to make the enemy let their guard down?" Milton tugged at his somewhat crumpled clothes, shocked for a moment before digesting Grandin's speculation.

"Wouldn't we be dangerous? I haven't touched a gun in months. ”

He reached for his waist, where there was an inconspicuous bulge, where the left wheel was hidden.

"It's just my inference, not necessarily the truth. Don't worry, it's so easy to bump into those cultists. ”

Grandin comforted him, and solemnly admonished:

"But I want to stress again that our main task this time is to investigate, and even if we do find something, don't do it immediately. We can go to the Angry Waves Church, which is not far from here, for help. ”

The configuration of their patrol squad was a bit rushed, and none of them could fight except for Grandin. If something really happened, he could only delay as much as possible and wait for the substitute punisher stationed in the Angry Waves Church to arrive.

Grandin looked up at the signpost and confirmed that it was the port's shopping street dedicated to fish trading.

Whether it is a local small restaurant purchase, or a large number of wholesale goods from foreign merchants, it will be carried out here. Because of the agglomeration effect, there is also a lot of live poultry trade, some of which is raised by local farmers and some by freighters from elsewhere.

Before he could get closer, he smelled a strong fishy smell. When Grandin actually stood on the street, the sound of shouting, bargaining, wheels running over the ground, and noisy conversation mixed together, giving him a taste of life.

In order to prevent slipping, a layer of gravel was laid on the ground, but it was useless, and the wet and sticky road surface always gave Grandin the illusion that he was slipping forward with soap.

"No matter what the punishers think, we should still do what we have to do."

As he spoke, Grandin ducked to the side, avoiding the two cats who were fighting over a piece of marine fish entrails.

"Godfather, there." Ademisore said, pointing to a man pacing not far away.

The man in light blue overalls had a clipboard under his arm and a yellow armband on his arm, indicating that he was in charge of the place.

"Milton, I'll leave it to you." After finding the person in charge, Grandin turned to Milton and instructed, "It's still those two questions: whether you have seen any suspicious people in the past two days, and whether anyone has rented a room from him." ”

Because of the liberal and relaxed urban policy, the dock area has a huge flow of people, and the management is very chaotic. It's the best place to hide, and maybe those of the Rose School will hide here.

"Okay." Milton walked forward first, and when he came to the person in charge, he took out his ID and badge belonging to the police, and said in a deep voice, "I am the inspector of the Special Operations Department of the Enmat City Police Department, and I need your cooperation in some matters. ”

Grandin's police ID card is attached to Beckland, which is not easy to use in Enmat. And Ademisor's documents have not yet been done, so this matter can only be brought forward by Milton.

They pretended to be ordinary police officers, half a body behind, and stood behind Milton.

The person in charge looked through the papers, and then replied, "Okay officer, excuse me." ”

The fish shop placed the tin fish tank on the side of the road, and in the shallow fish tank, there were sea fish swimming, and from time to time they made a few splashes with their tails.

The group took two more steps forward to avoid being splashed with water.

"There's a gang of murderous and dangerous people who have come to Enmat, have you seen any strange faces lately? Has anyone rented from you? ”

"Officer, I didn't pay attention to whether there were any suspicious people, after all, there are too many people coming and going every day......" The person in charge thought for a moment, and then quickly added, "But I did rent out several shops in the past few days, please wait a minute, I will go and get the record book and the rental contract immediately." ”

When he had finished speaking, he trotted to the office in the middle of the street.

"While we need to check for recent tenants, it's not a good place to stay for a long time, so let's get the job done quickly and just leave." Grandin pulled out his map again, and the smell of fishy food on the street made him very uncomfortable.

To divert attention, he went on to impart his experience:

"When looking at your target, focus on their demeanor, such as whether their eyes are wandering and whether they speak coherently...... Some potions can permanently change a person's personality, and it is especially important to be careful if you see abnormal expressions such as madness and sluggishness. Even if you are not extraordinary, a mere madman can pose enough danger. ”

Just as Grandin was about to add some more investigative knowledge, a group of people came up from the corner.

The middle-aged man in the lead had an old robe, and there were seven or eight followers behind him. Some of them were handing out leaflets, while others simply stopped and spread out with the pedestrians on the side of the road.

Seeing Grandin's gang with the appearance of workers, the leader immediately came over and said with kind eyebrows:

"Gentlemen, take the liberty of excuse me. Have you heard of the original Creator? ”

I've heard of Amway......

Grandin subconsciously complained in his heart, and immediately felt ridiculous and funny:

The believers of the true Creator are so arrogant in Enmat, they dare to pull people to preach on the main road? And it came to me? If it weren't for the fact that I had two teammates by my side now, I would have made you a martyr on the spot.

He looked at his companion, and saw that both Ademisore and Milton's expressions were a little stiff, so he delayed:

"I've heard of it."

The priest-like man was overjoyed when he heard this, and his expression showed a fanatical expression:

"Do you know, then, that the Lord is present in each of us, in everything? As we believe in Him and do our faithfulness, we will be able to enter the Lord's kingdom of heaven after death! ”

As he spoke, he shoved over another pamphlet, and in his excitement, he used a little more force.

Grandin staggered back two steps and pulled away.

"Father, we still have a job...... I'm going to the docks to hand over, but I'm interested in what you have to say......" Grandin pretended to be embarrassed, and then hesitated slightly, "Maybe so, I'll let the two of my companions complete the handover, and we may find a place to talk, I think if I was alone, the foreman wouldn't have found out that I was skipping work so easily." ”

When the old-dressed man heard this, the smile on his face deepened, and even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were several more, and he said kindly:

"Of course, of course, my child. Let us put aside the annoying mundane affairs and listen attentively to the Lord's teachings. ”

So Grandin naturally instructed his companions:

"Shuk, Beta, cover me up before the damn foreman finds out I'm not coming. I want to talk to this priest and rest assured, I'll treat you to a drink in the evening! ”

"That's it! It's still that tavern! ”

Milton understood what Grandin meant, and chimed in.

As soon as he was out of sight of the group, he ran to the Angry Waves Church to bring rescuers.

Milton and Ademisore began to walk out of the mall, and the priest did not stop him, but looked at Grandin with burning eyes, stepped forward again and shook his hands warmly, shaking them up and down:

"Son, as long as you are sincere and worshipful, you will be blessed."

At this time, two more members approached, as if to welcome the new members, and the scene was peaceful.

Grandin smiled back.

"Officer! I found it! ”

The head of the district shouted at Grandin as he ran, his voice loud enough in the noisy streets, with a notebook in his hand.

"I'm ......"

Grandin's smile froze, unable to hold it any longer.

The voice of the person in charge froze the space around Grandin, and everyone froze for a moment. The priest's eyes flickered between the person in charge and Grandin.

After understanding, his facial features were instantly distorted, his eyebrows were squeezed together, and the shame and anger after being deceived made him clench his teeth and look hideous.

"Article ...... Child? ”

One word at a time, squeezed out between his teeth.

Grandin reacted immediately, pulling out his hands and clasping them at the priest's wrists. But the priest, who seemed to be middle-aged and elderly, with a agility that was completely out of his age, quickly retracted his hands and dodged the grab at once. Then his feet slammed into the ground, out of Grandin's range.

Unable to catch up, Grandin could only stealthily flick two special pennies into the pockets of the priest's robes.

The believers around them reacted one after another, their hands either reaching for their waists or touching their arms. In less than a second, Grandin was being targeted by six or seven pistols, including a double-barreled shotgun.

"Is this Enmat? Going out to preach with a weapon? ”

In a hurry, the vortex under Grandin's eyes suddenly appeared, and the incomplete 'spiritual storm' turned into ripples and swung out of his body.

The cultists who raised their guns and aimed at them were like being beaten with sticks, and their eyes were all blackened.

"Phew!"

One of the gunners went off, but the bullet that lost its aim did not hit anyone.

Like a signal, the bustling commercial street was quiet for a moment, and then quickly became noisy again, but there was not much fear or panic in the sound.

The person in charge, who sensed that something was wrong, had stopped and ran back to the office faster than he had come.

A clerk who was carrying seafood by the carriage heard the gunshots and immediately lay down on the spot, putting down the box as a cover, and did not forget to carefully observe the surroundings.

A passer-by smelled the smoke and immediately bent down and trotted, quickly disappearing around the corner of the street.

Shopkeepers beckoned passers-by to take refuge in their homes and quickly closed the curtains and closed the doors.

"Phew!"

"Bang!"

"Phew! Bang! ”

Grandin rolled over, using the roadside fruit stand as a shelter, dodging another volley.

"What a madman! Hit the strip, phew! The first reaction when you meet the police is to pull out a gun? What happened to the ordinary people on the street? ”

Grandin was worried, and when the gunfire gradually stopped, he carefully looked around, only to find that the shopping street that had just been bustling with people was empty, and there was no one on the road except for the cultists who were confronting him.

"Skillful to make people feel distressed......"

Grandin was shocked and began to pull out his pistol and shoot back. But his sporadic gunfire was quickly drowned out by the more intense fire of the other side.

The dense bullets again weighed down his head, and for a moment he even thought he was back on the battlefield of Byron.

"Godfather!"

Ademisor and Milton, who had not gone far, touched back again, and the three of them leaned against the cover together.

"Why are you back again?" Grandin frowned and began to reload the revolver with doom bullets.

"Worried." Ademisor tentatively rushed out and fired a shot, looking at his awkward grip posture, his marksmanship could only rely on chance.

"There is no need for us to report such a big movement, and it is more important to support you at this time." Milton held the gun in both hands, his nervous face flushed, but the shooting was in order.

"Don't worry, we'll just have to wait until the penalty substitute or the police arrive. You stay here, I'll go to the right, and we'll shoot cross. ”

After saying this, Grandin bent down and ran out of cover, and as soon as he showed his head, he trembled spiritually, and he quickly tilted his head to the left. The next moment, a bullet flew past his ear with a screeching sound, bursting an apple in the stall.

"There's a sharpshooter on the other side, so you can't just pop your head at will, you'll be sniped."

Grandin kept his composure, kept his feet, and ran almost behind the wooden box on the other side of the street, almost under the chase of bullets.

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”

The tin fish tank at his feet was smashed, and the black sea fish ran out of the fish tank and staggered down the street.

"Another wide-area 'spiritual storm'? No, I can't control it precisely, it will affect ordinary people. But if you want to 'point kill', you will be targeted by the opponent's snipers......"

Grandin's mind was racing, and he had already made a decision, and he reached out and pulled out the 'Destiny Charm' in his pocket:

"I hope my next shot is good enough ......"

Before he finished speaking, his heart throbbed, and almost subconsciously he fell to the ground and shouted at the other two people in the team:

"Get down!"

Although the two did not know what the reason was, they quickly complied. In an instant, there was a burst of gunfire in the streets, and there were gunshots in all directions.

Passers-by who had taken refuge in the shops also began to fight back with guns.

Long and short barrels peeked out from behind the window, through the crack in the door. The shopping street was caught in a three-way scuffle, and the cultists who confronted them were instantly blinded by the random shooting, and Grandin heard several muffled snorts and screams.

Milton, who was lying on the ground with his head in his hands, remembered something at this time, and he identified himself loudly:

"We're the police! We are the police! ”

"Whew!"

"Woohoo!"

The jumble of bullets began to rain in unison on the other side, like a rainstorm.

Seeing that things were getting more and more chaotic, the middle-aged priest in a shabby robe had no choice but to let go of the guy who dared to fool him, and he said calmly:

"Retreat, go! Marian, leave them some souvenirs. ”

Hearing this, the man named Marian took off the grenade hanging from the belt of the armed belt with a blank face, and while pulling out the fuse, his hand was quickly raised.

On the other hand, with the enthusiastic help of the citizens, Grandin's pressure was greatly reduced, but as soon as he got up, his own spirituality was reminded.

"Smack!"

The strange sound was spiritually amplified and reached his ears.

The experience of fighting on the battlefield made Grandin quickly understand what it was made of.

"I hope no one was injured in the explosion."

Instead of taking the time to look for the grenade, Grandin chose to fully trust his abilities, and he quickly ejected the 'Destiny Charm' in the palm of his hand.
