Chapter 228: The Executioner
In front of a small house......
Wren took off his soaked coat and twisted it so hard that the water dripped to the ground. After twisting and shaking the clothes again, Wren looked at its wrinkled appearance, and was a little helpless to put it on his body.
You can't run around naked until you find a store to buy new clothes......
Today is an unfortunate day, this morning, he has already experienced husband and wife fights, neighbors scolding, and helping the lost old man go home. What's worse is that the reason why this old man got lost was because there was a water leak at home, and the phone couldn't be found, so he ran out to find a repairer, and as a result, he couldn't remember where his home was, and he forgot what he was out for.
Wren and Adam took great pains to get the man home, and when the door opened, it flooded like a small pond......
It was another busy time, calling the repairman and moving things out for the old man, and Wren was all wet.
After wringing the clothes, Wren half-bowed down and went to wring the water on his trouser leg again, and Adam next to him took out a report, made a few strokes on it, and patted Wren on the back with satisfaction: "We have completed 3 tasks, and then we just need to go to Fast Avenue to investigate the family whose meter is broken." ”
Seeing Wren rolling his eyes at him while twisting the water, Adam hurriedly smiled and said, "It's okay to take you to the neighborhood to buy clothes first." ”
His own clothes were still clean.
As soon as he said this, Wren stood up straight, waved his hand and wanted to complain twice, but his soaked clothes were cold, and he quickly put his hand down, but the anger on his face did not decrease:
"I'm going to buy clothes, and you'll go on your own with the next one. You didn't do anything this morning, I was scolded everywhere for the first two tasks, and now I am doing it alone! ”
Adam put his hand around Wren's shoulder and tried to put it on close, but after noticing that Wren's clothes were wet, he quickly took it back and slapped it twice.
"Isn't this that people won't let me do it? It's not that you didn't see it, the first few families saw me, and they were reluctant to open the door, and so did the old man, as soon as my hand touched something, he beat and scolded. I really want to help you, but I can't help you. ”
Wren looked at Adam's uniform: "You don't want to think about why people are afraid of you?" ”
Adam smiled awkwardly, who would be happy to deal with the vigilantes in this Brika City........
This time he didn't mind Wren's wet clothes, put his hand on Wren's back and said, "Isn't this still you?" I think you're doing a pretty good job. ”
Wren said angrily: "I'm a temporary worker!" ”
Adam thought for a moment, then replied seriously, "Then now is the time when you are needed." ”
“.......”
Wren resisted the urge to scold, pinched the clothes on his chest with both hands and lifted it: "Okay, don't talk about the front, is it worth two people to go to such a trivial matter as a broken meter in the back?" I'm going to change my clothes! ”
Adam grabbed Wren who wanted to slip away, and said with a smile: "Don't, it's the last task, let's go together." In this way, I will pay for your clothes, and when the task is completed, I will invite you to lunch at noon. ”
"Two more pieces of meat in the cafeteria?"
Adam took out another finger that Wren had raised: "Three~ block!" ”
Wren slapped Adam's hand away: "I knew you wouldn't take me out to eat!" ”
"I'm going back to the headquarters."
......
Wren eventually followed Adam to Fast Avenue, but he also agreed in advance that he would not return to the vigilante after the mission was completed.
He remembered clearly that Captain Seven said that he still had something to do with them after he came back.
"I'll have to go less in the future."
Wren, who had already changed his clothes, sat in Adam's car, and his heart was buried.
Adam saw that his face was not good, and deliberately diverted the topic all the way: "We still have about ten minutes to reach the destination, and the road to Fast Avenue is not far, that is, it is to pass through the most prosperous area of the city, there are too many intersections, and we often have to wait for traffic lights." ”
Before he could finish speaking, the speed of the car slowed down, and Wren glanced ahead, okay, 130 seconds of red light.
Wren held his forehead: "For so long, Brika hasn't thought about getting some flying vehicles?" ”
With enough time, Adam slowly explained to Wren: "There was a plan to get a magic carpet rental before, just like a taxi, but then the planning department found that it was too troublesome to build a special road for the magic carpet, so they gave up. ”
Wren was full of question marks: "Why build roads when flying in the air?" ”
"If you don't build a road, isn't it flying around? In order to regulate the flight path, you have to mark the line, right? Speed bumps must be set up in key places, right? Adam said and stretched out the front of the car with his mouth: "If there is a route, there is an intersection, so we need to build a traffic command booth, right?" If you want to build these, you have to build roads. ”
Wren thought about the scene where the air was full of roads, and then let the magic carpet fly on it, and sighed: "Then what else is flying......
Two minutes passed quickly, and Adam started the car and continued towards Fast Avenue.
Not long after the two left, the intersection ended again with a long red light, and just as the impatient vehicles waiting in the direction of traffic were about to move forward, the traffic control of the command booth in the middle of the intersection suddenly noticed that two people were crossing the road in the traffic and walking towards him.
The traffic manager just raised his hand to warn, but found that it was not two people who came over, to be precise, one person pushing the other.
The one who was pushed in front of him, his hands tied behind his back, his head covered, his face could not be seen clearly, and judging from the suit on his body, it was a man.
The one who followed behind was also wearing a black hood, but with two holes dug in his eyes, and he was carrying a long black cloth bag on his back.
The traffic management was vigilant in his heart, and the traffic at this time had been completely chaotic because of the appearance of two people, but the traffic management did not have the heart to command, but hurriedly contacted the headquarters.
By the time he put down the communication equipment, the two men had already arrived at the command booth. The person who pushed the person looked around at the small pavilion and shook his head: "It's a little small, but I can only make up for it today." ”
Saying that, he looked at the traffic management and bowed: "This gentleman, I don't know your surname?" ”
The voice also sounds quite young.
The traffic management was tense at this time, the scene in front of him was really a little weird, and this person with a hood and seemed to be polite gave him an extremely terrifying sense of oppression.
His mind was almost blank, and he subconsciously trembled and asked, "Who are you......."
"I'm so sorry." The hooded man's eyes narrowed, as if a smile was being shown under the hood, and his voice was soft: "Down there is an executioner, who is invisible, and it is inconvenient to reveal his name." ”
The traffic tube stammered, and he couldn't turn the corner at all: "Execution..... Executioner? ”
The surrounding intersections have been chaotic because of the crossing of two people, and they are standing in the middle of the intersection in strange clothes, attracting the attention of many people, making the scene more and more chaotic, but this "executioner" still looks unhurried.
"Yes, I'm going to have an execution, and my teacher told me, 'Execute a prisoner and make his crime public,' but alas, Brika doesn't have a guillotine anymore. So I can only borrow it here. ”
"I hope you won't mind."
