Chapter 20: Encounters

"What's wrong?" Ian, who was crawling above, asked Crane who had stopped abruptly in a breathed voice.

"I have an ominous premonition." Klein in mid-air shuddered, "Are you sure no one here will find out?" ”

Why did he feel so wrong!

"I'm sure." Ian, who was already on the top of the roof, said, "This room is locked down by the church, and no one will come in. ”

"We only need to stay here for a maximum of half an hour, and the MI9 people will be there."

Ian had already informed MI9 before he departed, and based on the distance from their office to his previous residence, and the time it took them to decipher the code, it should have taken less than half an hour to arrive and pick them up.

Klein was silent.

Judging from his experience of watching film and television dramas for so many years in the 21st century, this time is the most dangerous.

Officials are always late after the accident.

"Miss Sharon, could you please take a look at it?" He whispered to the wall in front of him.

Although his spiritual vision did not warn him, Klein, who always had a creepy feeling, couldn't help but ask Miss Bodyguard for help.

Under today's observation, he felt that Sharon, who had the ability to be like a female ghost, should be able to pass through walls.

The metal ladder made two crunching sounds of being struck without anyone touching it.

Hopefully that's what it means.

Looking at Ian, who had already climbed in above his head, Crane smiled bitterly.

......

In the room, Yager had excellent hearing to catch the faint sounds of conversation wafting outside.

MI9?

He tilted his head and thought about it, making sure he didn't have this department in his memory.

But as the name suggests, it's some intelligence agency in the Kingdom of Rune, and the trouble is that their large army will soon be over. It is difficult to explain why he is here after the encounter, and the matter of private investigation will be known to Duke Negan.

It's a small thing to be discovered, but it's a big thing to lose your job.

Although he is about to receive two thousand pounds from Miss Justice, he will not be short of money lately. *

After weighing the pros and cons, Yager decided to retreat with Williams first.

His inky eyes stared at the figure of the boy who was flipping through the window, slowly retreating silently in the shadows of the blind spot, and the 'Evelyn' on his right hand was quietly facing the direction of the bedroom.

However, a blonde figure in a palace dress suddenly broke into view!

As the 'Resentful Spirit' of Sequence Five, Sharon has basic confidence in her own strength, even if the danger mentioned by the client Crane is also around Sequence Five or Six, she can also get away with the pursuit through the special ability of the Resentful Soul state.

So in the face of simple exploration tasks, she was not particularly cautious.

Unfortunately, she made the wrong decision this time.

When she saw the two unfamiliar figures, Sharon, who had not received the warning from the vision, had no suspicion and floated straight towards Yager and Williams.

Does she think I can't see her?

Yager, who was separated by a wall, looked at the reckless transcendent man suspiciously. Although the other party's body is translucent, he is not blind.

The muzzle of his right hand was raised.

The two looked at each other as they kept closing in on each other's positions.

In the 'Wraith' state, Miss Sharon can easily pass through obstructions and remain unseen. Not even the extraordinary, who also possesses psionic vision, will not be able to discover her existence, except to the higher ranks.

Secondly, this status is also immune to most entity attacks, and only weapons with an exorcism effect can make her visible.

But what she didn't expect was that today her weakness would be fully restrained.

Through the wall, Sharon's gaze was locked on the two figures in the room, who had nothing unusual and looked like ordinary people who had strayed in.

It wasn't until Sharon walked through the thin wall of her bedroom to the living room that she was able to see the room with her blue eyes.

A few steps away, the black-haired young man had a pistol aimed at her head with no trace in her vision.

Sharon's pupils constricted.

She subconsciously raised her hand, wanting to use her extraordinary ability.

"Bump!"

The high-pitched sound of gunfire hovered over the East End, waking the sleeping crows in the treetops of the night from their slumber and flapping their wings into the distance.

Crane, still hanging from the edge of the ladder, palpitated for a moment.

Sure enough, there was a problem in the safe house.

Gritting his teeth, he still chose to speed up the pace of the ladder.

Miss Sharon's abilities look very weird, and if she overturns here, his primary goal of Beckron will not be able to escape, so it is better to fight for survival.

What's more, he has no interest in substituting someone else's life for death.

The kind-hearted little gram climbed onto the windowsill and saw clearly the situation in this MI9 safe house in the blood-red moonlight with the vision of a transcendent person-

At the door of the bedroom, a black-haired young man looked down indifferently at the 'resentful spirit' Sharon on the ground, and the delicate and smooth silver-white barrel in his hand pointed directly at the girl's eyebrows. His dark inky leather boots stomped on the chest of his trembling body at his feet, and the angular heels made a cruel dent in the center of his fair skin.

Tick, tick.

Sharon's originally smooth left shoulder was soaked in blood, leaving only a scarlet horror wound.

This is left behind when the bullet rubbed her "shoulder" and passed.

And after Crane turned over the window, the black-haired young man who caused the cruel picture slowly tilted his head and looked at his location, allowing Crane to clearly see the outline of the thug's face.

It is Mr. Bishop of the Tarot Order.

Klein was shocked.

He didn't expect that the bishop, who was logically unrelated, would appear here, let alone kill the rather powerful bodyguard lady in an instant.

The terrifying pressure of the pavement made him feel like he had been a few weeks ago, when he faced the monstrous Mecoos and her evil god heir with the captain in Tingen, and the overwhelming oppression was terrifying.

There is no power to resist. Despair.

He knew that the new member might be strong, but the strength was beyond the estimate.

No longer blocked by gray fog, Klein clearly felt the strength of the bishop:

Demigod above.

He was wrong, he should have posted the task in the Tarot Club at that time, instead of asking Justice alone, what to do now, is it still useful to turn around and run!

Crane shuddered and hid with Ian, who was cowering in the corner, and raised his hands in a classic gesture of surrender handed down from Russell's time, which was perhaps the only help that the time-traveler senior could give him now.

Without the Fool's prior notice, Mr. Bishop would have hardly associated him with the Fool's Dependents, and would not have let him go because of this relationship.

Klein didn't even think about resisting.

Considering the Bishop's absolute hole cards, as well as Miss Sharon, Ian, and a strange ordinary person in the living room, who are safe at the moment, resisting would only be counterproductive.

Fortunately, the thug Yager on the other side didn't seem to have any intention of attacking this new rookie, Yager just glanced at Klein with a strange look in his eyes.

After a few seconds, he turned to look at him again.

It's weird.

Yager, who was ruthlessly stepping on the girl, was puzzled again.

In addition to the translucent lady in front of him who rushed to him inexplicably and dared to try to use extraordinary abilities, the new young man was also very strange.

Clouds of gray mist mingled with the soul of the youth.

Of course, Yager had an impression of these gray fogs, after all, the Fool was the only god who had shown friendship to him since he came to this world, and the few remaining orders for him were still hanging in the church.

So after Klein came in, he didn't mean to do anything.

He hesitated for a moment, then asked coldly in the direction of Ian and Crane, "Who are you?" What are you here for? ”
